I've only given them the bare minimum of details—Isaac and I are no longer together because he's an abusive asshole, and I came back to town to get away from him. They really don't need to know anything else."Are you guys safe here?" Ashley drops to a whisper, her expression serious. "Like he's not
KingNiko and Mason have been off doing whatever bullshit Gray's assigned them all day. I've got a rare night off from assignments, and I'm planning on spending it ravishing my kitten.She deserves it, after all. She's finally opening up and allowing everyone her pathetic piece-of-shit husband force
I need to hear her say it. I need to know if she's put two in two together. There was a risk with Niko coming to my room last night, and I'm sure that fucker did it on purpose.He wants her to know.I've been wrestling with the idea of finally sharing her with him, but I'm still hesitant. He's shown
NikolaiAfter a day spent riding herd on the new prospects, making sure they didn't screw up their tasks, I'm fucking beat. Mason was too, which is why he went home, mumbling something about needing a real bed tonight because his back is killing him.I pull into King's driveway and cover my bike bef
"Open wide," I groan, pressing the tip of my cock against her lips. She opens for me, and I push forward slowly, savoring the warmth of her mouth. She immediately begins to suck my soul out of my body. "Fuck, that's a good girl. You're taking my cock so well."I used to fantasize about the day I wou
AlyssaI wake up naked and sandwiched between King and Niko, my body still humming with the aftershocks of what just happened. My skin feels hot from where their bodies press against mine, and it's so much nicer than I thought it would. Before I passed out, King cleaned me off while Niko stroked my
KingAs I impale Alyssa on my length, Niko wastes no time in touching her. He squeezes her breasts together, weighing them before he sucks one of her pink nipples into his mouth. Her breath catches, and the raw, desperate sound that escapes her has my cock twitching in response.I shouldn't be feeli
AlyssaI want to speak to you today. I've instructed my brothers to bring you and my niece by the house this afternoon. See you soon, sis. I read Gray's text for what feels like the millionth time, my stomach churning with a mix of anger and disbelief. Zuri's happily munching on her breakfast, comp
Even on the worst nights, when we crawled home from the clubhouse at dawn, I always stopped at her crib. Kissed her forehead. Whispered that we loved her. That ritual grounded me. Not doing it last night? Waking up in the morning knowing she'd wake up without us? It fucking destroyed me.We're w
NikolaiYeah. Letting Alyssa call Nina was a mistake.She's pacing the room like her skin's too tight, her lip trapped between her teeth, the burner phone pressed to her ear with shaking fingers. "Hey, Nina. Umm...how is she doing?"I glance at King. Then Mason. Then War.We're all bracing for it—w
Niko's hand smooths down my hair, his chest vibrating with soft, amused laughter. "It's okay, sweet girl," he murmurs, warm and teasing. "Me and Mace weren't complaining. And King—well, he was in a goddamn coma after that drive, so he didn't hear a thing."I hear the faintest smirk in King's voice w
AlyssaDespite the way Mason fucked me last night—slow, passionate, like he was trying to pull the sadness out of me one thrust at a time—I still wake up feeling like shit. Numb. Hollow. And aching in all the wrong places.Because no matter what I do, I can't stop the reminder that I won't get to
I thrust into her in one deep, hungry stroke, groaning as her pussy tightens around me like it's welcoming me back home.Fuck. I've missed her like this.I brace one hand against the wall, the other gripping her hip as I fuck her hard, driving the grief and exhaustion out of her with every thrust o
MasonAfter nine hours on the road, King is knocked out cold. Niko lies beside him, flipping through the TV channels with that blank look he gets when he's thinking too much. I'm at the window, AR-15 within reach, peeking through the blinds at the empty parking lot below.Alyssa's been in the showe
The guys had a little time with Zuri before she began fighting to keep her eyes open. I saw it on their faces—how hard it was to kiss her goodnight and walk away. But we all agreed. Leaving her here was the safest choice. Even if it feels like tearing out a piece of our hearts and leaving it behin
AlyssaLeaving Zuri behind is the hardest thing I've ever done. Harder than running from Isaac.Harder than learning I killed a man at seven because my father sold children for a living. Harder than choosing to die if it meant protecting the people I love. Because this...this feels like abandonme
He wants her to suffer first. "And you think any of us could live with that?" I spit. No one tries to step in and soften the blow. Because they know she needed to hear it. She swallows hard. Her voice cracks, but she catches it. "I just... I hate this. People could die because of me. I'm putting
