“And I want to know all of that,” Rosco pushes. “I want to know your every dream and goal. I want to know what makes you smile and what makes you cry. No one goes into a relationship fully knowing one another; that’s what time is for.”Dammit, why was he making this so hard? Wasn’t it enough that we
[Denali’s POV]I stare in the direction that Rosco disappeared while feeling something in me slowly shift, but despite that, I don’t move; after all, I didn’t have the right to. After a moment longer, I get up and head into the bathroom, which still holds Rosco’s scent, take a quick shower, then cha
[Denali’s POV]I continue to watch Rosco for a moment longer before downing my drink and then turning. Fine, if he wanted to be with Nadia, then he could be with Nadia. It wasn’t my place to care who was hanging on his arm anyway.Reaching out, I grab another drink and make my way toward the dance f
“Now,” William announces, turning us around so that he is blocking me. “Shall we test your theory?”Frowning, I attempt to peek past him only to be stopped as he grabs my cheeks and starts to bend, but before his face can get anywhere near mine, a snarl rips through the air, and William is being whi
[Rosco’s POV]Denali doesn’t speak as she takes me in with a mixture of embarrassment and vulnerability. I was sure that she didn’t expect things to go this way, but I did what I did for this specific purpose. Since she wasn’t willing to openly say that she was beginning to like me, I had to force i
Not needing anymore of a response, I’m swooping in, pressing our mouths together while the crowd around us begins to cheer, but soon they once again disappear, and Denali is all I can see, hear, smell, feel, and taste.When we pull apart, her eyes are dark, and a look of hunger rests in them.“Do yo
[Denali’s POV]My body shivers with both anticipation and nervousness while Rosco’s skillful fingers begin to slowly rub circles along my clit. And when he moves forward and dives between my folds with his tongue, convulsions of delight race through me.This was happening. It was actually happening,
“Well,” he chuckles, running a hand through his spiked hair. “There are ways…”“Just let me,” I whisper, slowly freeing his dick so I could get a full view of it. “You’re…” I gasp, not missing the barbells that trail along the back of his shaft. “Pierced?”Goddess, he was already so big, and now I w
[Elise’s POV]I stare at the goddess while she waits for me to decide what my next path will be. Of course, remaining here where there was no more suffering or pain was ideal, but I couldn’t just leave Serenity and those who I cared for back on earth to fend for themselves. However, even if I went b
In this moment, I’m absolutely certain that this is, in fact, the afterlife, but I’m a little confused. Why was I here in Nirvana when I truly belonged in hell, suffering for all of my misdeeds?“Because I have summoned you here.”Gasping, I jump up and whirl around, searching for the one who has sp
[Rosco’s POV]I wrap my arm around Denali and pull her against me as she stares at her father’s unmoving form. Where we touch, I can feel all of her emotions and know that what she did couldn’t have been easy but was necessary.“He got what was coming to him.” I murmur, kissing her cheek. “Don’t thi
[William’s POV]The next day, I stand between Jose and Charlie while members of Rosco’s pack work to prepare pallets for Elise and Uncle Hamilton. Once they’re in place, Rosco comes forward with a torch in hand. He doesn’t speak as he begins to set the pallets ablaze.As Elise’s body goes up in flam
[Rosco’s POV]I keep my gaze fixed on Charlie as he looks from me to William, who keeps his back to us. Despite my words, I can tell he wants to stop William, but this is a sensitive matter.“Fine.” Charlie finally sighs, deflating. “Go,” he continues to say to William. “Go to that hospital and caus
[Rosco’s POV]“I told you I was fine!” I hiss as Maria and Olga fight to keep me in bed. Many hours had already passed since Elise, Charlie, and Jose went to save William and retrieve my father, and despite the time, no one had contacted me yet. “I can’t just sit here while my people could be in dan
“Elise,” I snarl, keeping my gaze fixed on the spot where she just was. “I HAVE TO GET ELISE!”At my words, looks of pain cross Charlie and Jose’s faces, confirming my worst fear.“Don’t make her sacrifice be in vain.” Charlie says slowly. “If you stay here and get crushed, then what she did would b
[William’s POV]I look around, trying to figure out what the source of the sudden rumble is, and I quickly get my answer as a loud boom sounds and the roof above our heads disappears.“Shit!” Charlie hisses, beginning to move. “These bastards really are fucking crazy.”Crazy was an understatement. W
As this thought hits me, I see her standing there with a look of approval on her beautiful face. Smiling, she nods and looks toward the heavens.‘I’m sorry,’ I whisper internally, but she simply shakes her head, and as her mouth moves, I feel the weight that I’ve carried for so long begin to slowly
