[Massimo’s POV]I sit together with Giovani at a round table while taking in the remaining leaders of Hunters Moon. Despite their attempts at looking tough earlier on when we killed their alpha, they all looked terrified now.“Good evening." Giovani grins, taking the lead. “We appreciate you gathering here with us.”“Like we had a choice,” a man with piercing blue eyes and a long scar marring his face growls. “What the hell do you want?”“Isn’t it obvious?” I ask, joining the conversation. “We want that which your heir wants.”In the end, all of this was to get back at Knight for interfering again and again. I could only hope that he would blame himself for what was to come of his pack.“We have an heir!” The man snaps. “What makes you think you can..."“Because I have agreed to it.”With wide eyes, the man watches as Veronica and Jackson make their way into the room with smug looks on their faces.Smirking, I lean back in my chair as all hope fades from the man’s cocky gaze. Who woul
[Tatiana’s POV]I step out of the shower to find Knight cuddling Octavia. His eyes, which are fixed on her face, are full of adoration, and for a moment, I wonder if I’m eavesdropping on a scene that was only meant for him and her. However, before I can turn and head back into the shower, Knight’s eyes come to rest on me, and his gaze immediately darkens.Blushing, I try to act casual as I step out and take a seat on the bed so I can begin to dry my hair. After all the excitement of the day, I needed some time to myself, and that could only be achieved in a shower. It also gave me some time to compose myself and calm my heart over having to share a room with my mate.Although this wasn’t the first time we did this, something about our dynamic felt different. Was it because I was beginning to let my guard down around him, or was it because I actually wanted more of our stolen moments together? No matter what it was, it meant that things were changing, and that scared the shit out of me
[Knight’s POV]“There’s something I want to do.”Tatiana’s words are both confident and shy, which makes it that much harder to not attack her. Especially when she is on her hands and knees like that with those large, dark eyes that are full of hunger.Fuck, she was alluring. It was so fucking alluring that it drove me crazy. It was the very reason I lost control back then and decided to take her, even though I knew that the same night I would be selling her.“And what might that be, princess?” I ask, eyeing her curiously as she continues to crawl forward.“This,” she whispers, reaching out and grabbing my belt so that she can start to undo it. “I know that you’ve done things to me, but I never returned the favor.”Things… As in eating her out and fingering her on multiple occasions. Was she really thinking about that right now? If that were the case, just lying down and spreading those deliciously curvy legs would be enough.“So please, allow me to please you.”Growing quiet, she con
[Tatiana’s POV]I sit quietly while everyone at the table stares at me, and I swear it is almost as if they can see through me completely. Unable to calm down, I begin to squirm until Knight’s hand comes to rest on my thigh, sending soothing warmth through me before his essence begins to tickle my mind.‘Calm down; you aren’t in trouble.’‘Feels like it,’ I shoot back.For a moment, I let my eyes take in the group in front of me. We had gathered together to discuss our next move when it came to dealing with my uncle and Massimo, but it felt more like I was here for trial.‘You shouldn’t have been so loud last night,’ Knight chuckles, causing a ferocious blush to color my cheeks.‘Shut up,’ I hiss, wishing the floor would open up and swallow me. ‘How can you possibly…’Before I can finish, my eyes come to rest on Winley, and so help me a look of knowing flashes in them further confirming what Knight just said.‘Just kill me now.’“Thank you for coming,” Desmond announces, saving me fro
[Knight’s POV]I stare down, taking in Tatiana’s terrified gaze due to knowing that Fernando could invade her thoughts and hear everything. Fuck, I wanted to kill that bastard for what she was putting her through, but if I did that, she could die too.“What should I do?” She whispers, her eyes filled with pleading. “What if I cause..."“You won’t,” I say, pulling her to me. “I’ll be damned if I’ll let that bastard know a fucking thing.”As I speak, I look deep into her eyes, half expecting to see Fernando there staring back at me, but I’m just met with her golden depths.“We’ll figure out a way to stop this,” I murmur, hoping that my presence alone will calm her.“But how?”“If he is able to invade your thoughts like this, then you should be able to do the same,” I explain. “That’s how this works.”We were taught about blood-bonding long ago, but it was an extreme way of mating with another and is hardly used anymore. But if one party was capable of doing it, that meant that the other
[Tatiana’s POV]I stare at Knight as embarrassment rushes through me due to what I’ve just said, but now that he has ignited the fire in me, I can’t stop. If this would make Fernando go away, then I was more than willing to do it, even if it was almost like using Knight.'Don't you dare,' Fernando growls. 'It'll be the biggest mistake you can make.''No, it won't,' I counter.“Say it again,” Knight growls, hooking his fingers into my pants.“Fuck me,” I whisper. "Please fuck me even if we are being watched."Letting out a growl of excitement, he pulls, removing my pants and underwear in one fell swoop so that I’m left completely bare before him. However, unlike the last few times we did anything, I didn’t feel embarrassed; if anything, I was even more aroused due to the hunger I saw in Knight’s eyes. Knowing that I was the reason for that left me feeling beautiful and powerful. It was almost intoxicating, and the more I felt like this, the more I wanted to feel it.‘Careful, pet.’ Fer
[Tatiana’s POV]“Kn-Knight, I c-can’t!”My voice comes in embarrassing puffs while a loud groan of ecstasy escapes from the seventh orgasm I’ve had. So far, Knight had kept to his promise of making me cum until I couldn't, and he had done it without even penetrating me. If this kept up, there was no way that he was going to be able to fuck me.“You can,” he counters, building me up to another. “And then you’re going to be a good girl and take my dick.”As he speaks, he sends me crashing into an eighth orgasm, but this time instead of continuing to pump his fingers into me, he removes them.Pulling them out, he stands up and begins to remove his clothes so that his dick is freed from beneath his pants.“Did you learn your lesson?” He asks, climbing on top of me. “Or should I punish you a bit more?”“I learned,” I gasp. “I learned!”I did learn, but not to be disobedient. I learned that Knight had a sadistic side, and when we were together like this, he had a need to dominate. And despi
[Knight’s POV]I keep my gaze fixed on Vince as he stares at me in disbelief. When I called him here to meet with us, I knew that what I would be asking was a lot, but he was the only one left in the pack that I was certain I could depend on.“You want me,” he begins, his gaze flashing with excitement. “To actually cause trouble for your stepmother and Jackson?”“That’s correct,” I confirm. “And I’m assuming that your using their names means that they’re involved in this whole scheme with Onyx River and Obsidian River.”“That’s right,” he puffs, anger coloring his features. “It turns out that your stepmother has been in some type of fling with Giovani. I saw them macking on each other in the hallway and about lost my lunch.”To prove his point, Vince makes a gagging noise as his features blanch, and I can only assume that he is seeing the scene all over again.“Why am I not surprised?”I knew from the very start that my stepmother didn’t have much interest in my father, but her acting
