*****Ivy POVI hadn't expected Hale to be the one to speak up first. In fact, I had expected it to be James, but for some reason, he seemed so unsure as he passed glances with Damian.Giving a reluctant sigh, Damian shook his head and took a seat behind his desk. "Okay.""Okay?" I asked with shock
Deciding to ignore him, though I took James' phone and stared at the photo. "Has Talon been to South Africa?" "What?" Damian replied, "no... why does that matter.""It matters because out of all the plants that you guys are affected by, this one would cause a lot of his symptoms and going crazy is
Ivy POVThe conversation was over. Hoisted over Hales' shoulder, I was carried upstairs towards my room. The swears and curses of my frustration trailed behind us as I made Damian aware of how pissed off I really was."I'm sick of your shit, Damian!" I yelled again before my bedroom door was kicked
Hale's eyes watched me in silence as he processed what I was saying. Slowly stepping forward, he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close, letting his lips brush against mine."I'm sorry, Ivy. I wish there was more we could do, but these are waters we are unfamiliar with. Allison was the
"Whatever… we are stopping for coffee, though, and your ass is buying."Hanging up the phone, I smiled to myself, glad I was able to have Kate as a friend. It was crazy how quickly she and I had bonded, and through everything, she never left my side.Relief flooded me, but beneath it was a mass of n
James POVA few hours later and I couldn't stop pacing the living room. She was planning something. I wasn't sure what it was, but my gut feeling was hardly ever wrong about things. "Would you stop pacing?" Damian sighed as he lifted his bourbon glass to his lips and shook his head. "It's giving me
"Likewise," I replied as I joined him. "Hale, I take it you're going to stay up for a while?"Hale was silent as he read, and a nod was the only acknowledgment that I received. No matter how much he was trying to act normal, I could see the truth. He was far from being alright and that concerned me.
Standing to my feet, he patted my back end gently, causing me to look back at him with a grin. I still remembered what he had told me before about twins and needing to mate together, but after everything I had read about their kind—it was mistranslated.Mating with them together was how I produced a
Lucas pulled out first, the feeling of his cum spraying upon my ass as a groan escaped his lips was a tantalizing combination. Silas didn't back down as he shot his load down my throat at the same time Finn thrusted up one last time hard, before stilling inside me. The three of us found our release
No more words passed between us after my response. My body was tossed upon the soft cotton blankets and sheets of my bed, my eyes staring up into three sets of hungry gazes as each of my mates began to undress. They were unique in their own way and all mine. Ripped abs, tattoos, flawless skin, and
"Does this mean you won't leave me again?" My question was completely random, but for some reason, it was the only thing that came to mind at that moment. Deep down, I was terrified he was going to leave me again. That I would wake up one morning, and all this had been just a dream, a fantasy I was
Cassie.Had anyone told me I would be where I was right now a few months ago, I would have laughed at them. Never in my life could I have imagined I would have been ruling an entire realm. Nor did I imagine I would have three men who wanted nothing more than to please me in any way I could imagine.
"I will," Damian announced. "Regardless of what he has done, I will train him, and if I can forgive him for his past discretions, then I expect everyone else here to do the same.""You would really take this on, Damian?" Odin asked. "What changed your mind from our conversation the other day?"I had
"A change in circumstance?" Odin repeated, more to himself than anyone else. "Well, by our laws, you are the winner, so in this situation you can do as you please. What are these changes that you want to make?""Well, as you know, I am the prince of my realm. I can't rule two kingdoms, therefore I w
Cassie. I wasn't sure what to expect when it came to the games being over, but one thing was for sure, my grandfather didn't disappoint when it came to a coronation party. Stepping into the grand hall, I was greeted by the aroma of freshly cooked meats, breads, and the lingering smell of flowers. I
Granted, I was far more confident now then before I had gone to visit my parents."Cassie." Damian's calming voice wrapped around me as he leaned forward over the back of my seat to give me a soft squeeze before kissing the top of my head. "Stop worrying.""How can you say that? You barely know eith
He lunged towards me, moving swiftly to attack. Dodging to the left, I missed his punch but not bouncing back quick enough, I took another hit to my right. Back and forth the fists swung between us. His grasp on my arm tossed me through the air, my body connected with a nearby tree before slumping t
