“Daisy isn’t in her room.”

My eyes snapped up from the newspaper. “What do you mean she’s not in her room?”

“Don’t fuck with me Val,” Alex growled. “I checked the nest and the bathroom. She’s not here!”

“You think that she left?” I frowned. “Why would she leave?”

“Because John told her that she would be staying for two weeks, not a fucking month.”

Letting out a sigh, I closed the newspaper and neatly folded it before I placed it down on the table. He was angry, and angry Alexander made stupid decisions.

“Maybe she just went for a walk,” I suggested. “Is her stuff still in the room?”

He either ignored me or didn’t hear my question. “What if she’s meeting him somewhere? What if they are making plans for her to feed him information about us?”

It was a possibility, I silently agreed, but very unlikely. “I get the feeling that Daisy dislikes John as much as we do. If she felt anything-”

“She lives under his roof,” Alex interrupted.

“Exactly.” I sat up. “We can use her to get information

    A knock on the bedroom door startled me.Frowning, I glanced between the door and the clothes folded neatly across the bed. I had been so caught up in the task that I had completely forgotten where I was.“Daisy?”“Yes?” I called, continuing my task of folding the shirt.The door opened a second later.“Damn, you’re really good at that.”I looked up at Valiant. He was staring at the neatly folded clothes on my bed.“Are you making fun of me?” I asked him.His eyes snapped to mine. “No. Why would you think that?”I shrugged, leaning over to place the folded shirt on top of the shirt pile. When I sat back and looked up at him, he was still staring at the clothes. I followed his gaze, searching for the item that was holding his attention. Colour flooded my cheeks when I realized what he was staring at.At the very edge of the bed was my plain cotton underwear.“You act like you’ve never seen a woman’s panties before,” I muttered, even though I was burning with embarrassment inside.“I’ve

    “Why are you in such a good mood?”It was extremely rare for Valiant to be bright-eyed and happy at eight o’clock on a Monday morning. Grumpy was one word I constantly used to describe him when he was working on a case.“Can’t I just be happy?” he questioned, raising an eyebrow.I walked past him to pour myself a cup of coffee. “You’re usually not this happy when you’re in the middle of a case.”“If you want to know so badly…” He rolled his eyes. “Daisy agreed to organize my closet. Once I have my lucky tie, this case will be solved in no time.”I had a feeling that it was about more than his lucky tie. Knowing Valiant, I wasn’t going to get any answers out of him unless he volunteered to tell me himself.After downing half my cup of coffee, I set it aside and started pulling things out to make breakfast. Alex already left for work so it was just Daisy, Valiant, and me.“Are you staying for breakfast?” I asked him.“Depends. What are you making?”I smiled. “Pancakes.”Valiant choked o

    I have never seen so many toys in one place before. Clothes yes. The man had more clothes than my mother and stepsister combined. Some of it had never been worn before and then there were a few pieces that were so well-worn that it had holes in it. I tried to keep my focus on the task at hand, but it was nearly impossible with the bed covered in toys and Elias sitting in the middle. Whenever I glanced up at him it was to find him studying a different toy. “A few years ago, before Val was so well-known, he worked on a case. The woman owns a sex shop. As part of her gratitude for helping her, she sent him toys every month,” Elias said softly, drawing my attention back to him. “I didn’t know that she was still sending him toys.”I bit my lip to stop the questions from tumbling past them. Their conversation from earlier drifted through my mind. They had been talking about playing dirty. “There are a few interesting ones.” He chuckled as he picked up another box. “Who comes up with th

    I shifted nervously in my seat as I glanced around the restaurant. She was running late even though she had texted me to say that she was only twenty minutes away. It had taken me three days to build up the courage to call my mother to confront her about the lies I had been told. She had insisted that we meet at this restaurant for lunch so we could talk face to face. Things between Alexander and I were still a bit tense, but he hadn’t been rude or acted like an asshole since our…talk. I hadn’t told him about the lunch with my mother, but Elias knew. He had been the one to call me a taxi and demanded that I call him if something happened. He hadn’t offered to come with me, and I wasn’t sure why it made me feel disappointed. We shared a moment, but whatever happened between us disappeared when Elias left me in that bathroom. I was surprised that he hadn’t told the others about what happened. Maybe he had, and they just didn’t care. Shaking my head, I took a sip of water and p

    Goosebumps covered every inch of my skin because of Daisy’s warm breath against my throat. I tried to ignore it. I tried to think of anything other than her warm breath against my skin and her soft body pressed against mine.She was fast asleep with her head resting on my shoulder. Every time I shifted in my seat, her arms would tighten as if she was scared I would leave her.My alpha instincts were urging me to protect the little omega in my lap.“Did we loose them yet?” I asked Stevens.The sooner we got home, the sooner I could hand her over to Elias and force the rising feelings down.“Almost.”I growled. Fucking assholes. At least, there was only a dozen reporters and Stevens managed to scare them off with his nephew’s water gun. Fuck, it’s going to be all over the news.Pursing my lips, I carefully shifted in the seat to pull my phone from my pocket. I called Valiant but the call went straight to voicemail. He was probably busy in court.Elias answered on the first ring. “Is she

    Elias looked like he was going to pass out. His skin was paler than normal and clammy. Alexander had to help him out of the truck and into the elevator. The moment he let him go and moved forward to enter the code for the penthouse, Elias slid down to the floor. I wanted to help, but I was unsure what to do. When we arrived at the penthouse, Alexander easily pulled him to his feet. I followed closely behind them as they stumbled down the hall into what had to be Elias’s room. “Pull the covers back,” Alexander ordered. I hurried forward and did as he ordered before I stepped back. Alexander gently lowered Elias to the bed. He gripped the hem of his shirt and tugged it upwards. “Arms up,” he ordered. With a low groan, Elias raised his arms and allowed Alexander to pull off his shirt. I turned away, trying to look at anything but Elias. For some reason, my eyes were drawn to the pale skin. His torso was firm but not overly muscled. But what caught and held my attention were

    It was supposed to be my lucky day. I lost the case even though I wore my lucky tie. All the hard work down the fucking drain due to one stupid thing I missed. To make it even worse, I had to find out from a co-worker that Daisy had been caught on camera with Alexander. Paperwork waited for me when I walked out of court. I had to take care of it before I could leave. It was almost midnight when I entered the penthouse. My tie had been removed during the drive home. I lost my jacket on the way up in the elevator and was busy unbuttoning the top buttons of my shirt as I walked through the dark penthouse. There was no lingering smell of a cooked meal waiting for me like there usually was. My brows dipped into a frown when I entered my bedroom. I flicked on the light and dropped my case down on the desk in the corner. Taking a seat on the edge of the bed, I kicked off my shoes and pulled off my socks. A low sound made me pause. Tilting my head to the side, I held my breath to lis

    The last thing I remembered before I fell asleep, was Valiant pulling me closer after I finished the bowl of popcorn. I didn’t wake up during the night or suffer from another nightmare. Surprisingly, it was the best damn sleep I’ve had since I arrived at their place.It shocked me when I started to wake up and realized that I was sandwiched between two hard bodies. There was an arm resting across my hips and something long and hard pressed against my ass.I had read enough books to know that it was someone’s morning wood. But whose?Frowning, I opened my eyes and blinked at the face resting on the pillow only a few inches from mine.My eyes darted over his face and then lowered to linger on his parted lips. He was so close that I could feel his warm breath fanning my skin.“You snore.”I blinked at him.His lips curled up into a smile and a moment later his eyes fluttered open. “Good morning.”“Are you feeling better?” I asked him.“Yes, thank you. Alex told me that you took good care

    The moment I opened my eyes, I realized that something was different. I felt different. Blinking up at the ceiling, I took slow deep breaths as I evaluated things. Besides from a few aches and pains, nothing about my body felt any different. I was sore from all the fucking we had been doing the previous night and the bond marks throbbed. Val’s mark hurt a little more than the others, but I was sure that it was because he hadn’t nursed it enough yet. I glanced at Val who was still fast asleep next to me and then silently slipped out of bed. Walking into the bathroom, I hesitated a moment before I turned towards the mirror. My eyes widened. Stumbling forward, I leaned forward to get a closer look. Raising a shaky hand I traced the raised skin of the mark with my finger tip. Out of all the places, he had to mark me on my left breasts directly over my nipple. It was going to be hell when he nurse his mark. I sighed. Using the toilet, I washed my hands and splashed my face with some

    Elias knew what he was doing. Other than me who was starting to second-guess everything. I wasn’t so sure about my plan anymore. Insecurities were starting to fill my mind.I swallowed as I stared down at the toys Elias had placed on the end of the bed. Along with it was a bottle of lube, some towels and a packet of wipes.The lamps next to the bed were switched on, creating a soft glow around the room. One curtain had been closed and the other was half open, letting in some more light.“They should be home any minute now,” Elias said softly. “Wait here. I’ll send him to his room when they get back.” He smirked as he walked out of the room.I stood awkwardly by the bed, eyes darted around the room. Should I take a seat on the bed? Do a sexy pose like they do in the movies?It felt like forever before I heard voices coming from the kitchen. I waited a few more minutes and when Val didn’t appear, I made my way towards them.Only he wasn’t with them in the kitchen.Frowning, I glanced

    “I’m not sure how I feel about this. You spend most of the time taking care of them and now you carry both their marks. It should have been fare if I got to mark you first.”I swallowed as Val slowly stalked closer.“I think I might need to hurt myself too.”“Don’t talk like that Val!” I frowned at him. “You don’t have to do anything to get my attention.”He raised an eyebrow. “I don’t?”“You have my attention now.”“Yeah, but for how long?”“However long you want it.”Valiant smiled but it slipped the moment Elias appeared. Muttering under his breath he turned and then fell back onto the bed I had been busy making.I glared at him, but he ignored me.“Your mother called,” Elias said softly. “She wants you to return home immediately.”I blinked at him. “I’m sorry, I think I misunderstood. My mother who has been ignoring me for most my life, wants me to return home?”“Yes.”“Why?”Elias shrugged. His eyes darted to Val for a few seconds before the locked on me again. I blushed under hi

    I was glad that Alex had done bonded Daisy before she could run away.It was going to take some time for Daisy to work on her issues, but we were going to be by her side every step of the way.Although I had imagined a different kind of bonding when Daisy said that she wanted us to bond her.A sigh fell from my lips as I turned onto my side.Daisy was snuggled between Alex and Val, fast asleep.My eyes locked on her shoulder. The wound was ugly red and stood out against her pale skin. I swallowed and forced my eyes away from her bond mark.After hesitating for only a second more, I slowly slid out of bed and walked out of the nest.A few minutes later I was seated behind the computer with a steaming cup of coffee and my folder with notes open next to me. But no matter how hard I tried, the words deserted me. All I could think about was Daisy and the fact that she was now our omega.We were now officially deemed a pack.“Why do you always slip out of bed in the middle of the night?”My

    As it turned out, much to their disappointment, their parents were already at the penthouse. They were already halfway here when their mom called. I was actually happy that they arrived when they did. As eager as I was to bond them, I wanted to clear the air with their family first. Especially Sylvia. She started glaring at me the moment she walked though the door. Mom Bee greeted me with a hug and muttered words that she was happy that I was okay and home. While Elias and Mom Bee finished cooking dinner, I helped set the table and then joined the others in the living room. Alex pulled me onto his lap before I could take a seat next to him. Colour flooded my cheeks but I relaxed against his chest. My eyes locked with Alister’s for a few seconds before I quickly looked away. “How are you doing Daisy?” he asked softly. “I’m doing okay, thank you for asking.” Sylvia scoffed. “How can you be doing okay when you’re the reason my boys got injured?” “Sylvia.” “Mom!” She ignored them

    “Hey,” I said softly.Daisy’s eyes darted up to me and immediately darted away again. “Hi.”I hesitated in the doorway, waiting for her to invite me in, but she didn’t. There was an awkwardness between us that hasn’t been there before and it was driving me crazy.“Can I come in?”Daisy nodded.My eyes darted around the room as I entered.Her clothes were scattered around one side of the bed and on the other side it was folded neatly where she sat, busy sorting through it. Was she planning on leaving?My heart squeezed painfully in my chest but I ignored the pain and took a seat on the edge of the bed.“Daisy, we need to talk.”She paused for a few seconds and then finished folding the shirt and placing it on the pile of other neatly folded shirts before she raised her head to look at me.Instead of saying a word, I showed her.“John’s men trashed the apartment when they came looking for you. I found it on the floor in the nest.”Daisy swallowed loudly. “Does Alex know?”“No.”Licking

    “Good morning, how are you feeling?”My eyes darted around the kitchen, searching but only finding David seated at the table. I could have sworn I smelled Alex’s scent on the pillow when I woke up. We had a conversation and he told me that Elias was in the hospital.Was it all a dream?“He’s outside, making some calls,” David said softly.My shoulders slumped as relieve flooded me.“You didn’t answer my question. How are you feeling?”I licked my lips as I stepped further into the kitchen. “A little shaky and I have a headache.”“That’s because you haven’t had a descend meal in a while.” David close his laptop and stood. “I’ll make you some breakfast.”I hovered close to the table and watched him as he moved around the kitchen. A few minutes later the smell of frying bacon filled the air, making my stomach growl.“I…uhm…t-thank you for…what you did,” I stuttered.Colour flooded my cheeks when he turned around to look at me.“How did you know that…it’s what I needed?” I asked him, eyes

    Daisy stirred, making my eyes snap open.I held my breath as I stared at her, waiting for her eyes to open. But they didn’t. She turned onto her back and sighed. I stared at her for a few more seconds before I leaned back in the chair.Movement from the corner of my eyes caught my attention.David hovered in the doorway, eyes darting over Daisy and then to me.“How long is she going to be asleep?” I asked him.“For another hour at least,” he answered. “I gave her a strong dose because I didn’t know how long it would have taken you to get here. Your omega made it clear that she didn’t want another alpha to touch her.”My lips twitched but I didn’t smile. Despite Daisy’s constant claim that she wasn’t the right omega for us, she already accepted us as her alphas.“Let her sleep, I made some coffee,” David muttered.“Got anything stronger?” I asked him as I stood.“No.”I followed him out of the room and down the hall to the living room. David nodded towards a tray on the coffee tabel. “

    “Where the fuck is she?”His loud exclamation was followed by the sound of flesh hitting flesh. I bit down on my tongue to stop the groan of pain from escaping. A few punches was nothing compared to the pain I had gone through when I was injured in the explosion.Gripping my chin, he tilted my head back.I watched him through swollen eyes and when he got close enough, I spit in his face.Snarling, he punched me in the stomach, making me swing back and forth. The chains dug into my skin, making fresh blood trail down my arms.I was glad they grabbed me and not Alex or Val. I had been trained to endure hours of torture. They were tough but Alex was already injured and they would have used that to get their answers.“Last chance,” John growled. “ Where is Daisy?”I gave him a bloody smile. “Fuck you.”Nothing happened.“Maybe you’ll start talking once your mother starts begging.”Bile rose in my throat but I swallowed it down.
