Hopefully, their heart to heart will help Maddox in the long run.
KALEN“Dad said that you had Vessel things to talk to me about,” I told Mom when I found her in the kitchen.She smirked at me, passed me a cup of her special cocoa recipe, and told me to follow her. She led me into the home office that was soundproofed so as not to be overheard if I had to guess.I settled down on the couch and tucked my legs underneath me as I got comfortable. She sat next to me and mirrored my pose.“Not exactly. He wanted a chance to bond with Maddox, so I thought this was the perfect opportunity for you and me to talk without the male folk around. I just used the Vessel excuse so that he didn’t get nosey.”She winked at me, making me snicker. This was exactly what I needed right now. I had no idea what Dad wanted to talk to Maddox about, but I was thankful that he was bonding with my mate.Maddox had his mother in his life for such a short amount of time before he was left with a father who was incapable of decency. It was amazing to see my mate in awe during our
KALENI rushed into the bedroom and looked around. I could still scent what we had gotten up to earlier.Goddess, that man was so damn talented. It sucks that others have experienced how good he was, but I would be the only one to keep him. The past would remain exactly right there. We would keep moving forward together. It would be together that we could get through anything.It was him, Neo, Nika, and me. The four of us would have each other until our final breath.I had already moved my clothes over here, so I looked through my lingerie options. I might have had Jade procure some for me whenever Maddox and I took steps towards intimacy. He did not seem to mind me completely naked instead wearing a sexy outfit. The hunger that had burned through his eyes and body had set my entire being aflame.Jade seriously outdid herself. I selected a turquoise baby doll. There was a lace floral pattern over the cups. The rest was see-through with a lace design on the hemline. There was a matching
MADDOXI had thought that today could not make me any happier than I was when Theo and I were bonding. However, this right here exceeded that by far. She wanted me. I did not even mean sexually even though I loved being sexually wanted by her. What I meant was that she wanted to tie herself to me despite everything.Calvin had wanted me to be his good little soldier and do his dirty work. Females wanted me but was only about sating their lust. Nobody had ever truly wanted me, but she did. There was no fucking telling what in my life had warranted the blessing that was Beauty and Nika, but I was more than thankful for them.She was so fucking sexy in this piece of lingerie that left very little to the imagination. The image of her kneeling on the bed when I entered the room would now and forever be burned into my memory. She looked like my sexy little innocent angel, but I knew there was a she-devil inside of her. My little she-devil that I could not wait to fully corrupt.“This is a pr
KALENHe made me feel stronger and more secure in who I was. He gave me a great deal of confidence too. How could I not feel sexy and strong when he looked at me like he did?Mom was right that he looked at me like I was his everything. He had quickly become mine too. I was not certain when or how it happened, but it was the truth. I could be without many things, but I could not be without him.I was nervous as hell right now but also extremely eager to solidify our bond. We still had things to figure out when it came to the pack and all, but that could be done later. I would need to discuss it with Maddox, but I figured that I would just make him a co-Alpha like the Nightshade twins and Shadow Falls triplets.“I’m going to still once I’m through your barrier until you’re ready for me to move. Just focus on my ladder piercings,” he told me with a smirk.My eyes probably lit up with that thought because it was something that I truly could not wait to feel. Having it in my mouth gave me
MADDOXI could not get enough of Beauty. Her scent, taste, the way her body responded to me, and how fucking incredible she was. It created a completely insatiable need for her. I was not the only one with that insatiable need though.We both lost count of how many times we came, completely lost within the haze of being with each other. Had I not been the one to take her virginity then I never would have guessed that last night had been the first time she had sex. I was not going easy on her either. She greedily took everything I threw at her and threw her own right back at me. She was a fucking vixen. I woke up before she did and took a few minutes to truly admire her beauty and the incredible gift that she gave to me – her heart. She placed her trust in me and gave it, and I would be damned if I ever broke it again. I would rather rip my own out instead and drop it at her feet as an offering.Might as well wake my goddess of a mate in the manner that I would prefer to always wake he
KALEN Dad called for a pack meeting before dinner so that we could announce Maddox as a future co-Alpha. Maddox had been taken aback by my offer of us being co-Alphas. He felt that he did not deserve it. He had been beaten down his entire life, so he never felt good enough for anything. He felt weak, but he was the furthest thing from that. He was strength incarnate. Look at everything that he had been through and survived in his life. Few could have accomplished that. When we were alone, he asked me why I would share the post with him. It was my birthright after all. Our situation was unique because most Alphas were male. Their mate would then become Luna. However, I never wanted to subject Maddox to the type of prejudicial hate that I faced all of my life. I honestly believed that this was the best path forward for our pack. There was an instinct inside of me that told me so. I really did not care what anyone else thought as long as Maddox was on board with me. “You ready to sho
MADDOXI could not get over the fact that a professional tattoo artist that owned his own shop wanted to give me a test run to see if I could perform to his standard. There would be a job waiting for me if it turned out that I did.My life had completely changed since Beauty came into it. Everyone from this pack that I had met thus far had been welcoming and kind. They did not care that I was a stranger. They made me feel like I was one of them. It made me emotional even if I never admitted it aloud.For the first time in my entire life, I was looking forward to the future and the possibilities that it might contain. Beauty had been nothing but supportive of me. I loved the idea that she presented about a class. The thought of leading it started to lead me down a dangerous path that was riddled with Calvin’s taunts, but I refused to allow him to continue having purchase in my life. So, I metaphorically punted his memory into a volcano, the closest thing to the flames of Hell.We got ba
KALEN I smiled as I watched Dad talking with my mate. It made me happy to see that Dad was taking him underneath his wing while also showing him what a good relationship with a father figure could be like. It meant everything to him, making it mean everything to me as well. The pack meeting last night went better than I had expected it to. I thought that it was a brilliant idea for him to weave the truth command into his questions for the guy who decided make accusations. At dinner, many people came up and welcomed Alpha Maddox. He was completely taken aback when he heard that, but he hid it really well. There were some shameless females who tried to get his attention by batting their lashes even though they were just made aware of our bond, but he easily put them in their places while reaffirming that I was the only woman who would ever get his attention. He even stated that any further attempts would be dealt with by me. That had all of them tuck their tails and scurry away. Onc
