"Roman," she sighs softly in a sleep filled voice. "It feels good my back was hurting," I grin as I rub all over her back and ass. Her soft noises of pleasure make me smile. Poor thing didn't tell me about her pain. "Fuck I love you babe. I fucking hope you know that",I kiss her head and rub her
Roman pov I head back in and eat with my girls while Gunner goes through our movies. "Tangled," he holds it up. "I love that one," Bella says shyly. "We got dog ones too," he holds up three. I chuckle as I eat. Heather pushes her food away, and I hold in my remarks to that. I will not upse
My cell vibrates, and we head into the hallway. I pull it out and see a text from my men. "Boss, we got to the hotel, and both women are beat up badly. Sara was still conscious, but her sister was knocked out. The hotel room was destroyed so we paid to fix it. We are heading home. "I sigh as I s
Roman pov She knows Helen is here, and I feel guilt that we have to have this talk. "I know everything Roman because the nurses gossip," she says, rubbing her belly. I sigh. "Babe..."she sighs. "I get it, Roman," her voice is soft. She sounds upset. "I know you loved her so bad you prayed sh
"Shhh babe, we got this. I already got Bow taking over till you've healed up and are not pregnant. "I kiss her head. Doctor Frank leaves quietly but comes back with pain meds and prenatal meds. He hands them over, and Heather doesn't say anything she just downs them. "Get rest honey and have me pa
Roman pov "Get back to your floor!" he orders harshly "Roman, please talk to me," Helen begs me. I sigh. "I'm with my very pregnant mate. Helen, you and Sara can't come busting in here, barking out demands. "I snap at them. Helen continues to sob as I hold Heather in my arms. "That should b
"Roman, please hold me for a little," she begs. "Not happening, so stop the theatrics Helen. I'm mated. You all know this, or did Amber promise me to you if you helped her?"She went pale at the mention of Amber. Nailed it. I heard my wolf say. "She left us to rot, and we got raped I don't think
Sophia considered the question seriously before shaking her head. "Not worry. It's the right pattern. The balance is happy about it." She adjusted another stone slightly, the golden light flowing to illuminate the new configuration. "Five is better than four. Stronger shapes." As if confirming her

Grace pov Liam nodded, leaning forward to place a gentle kiss on my forehead. "Our children were never going to be ordinary, were they? Not with us as parents." I smiled as he looked into my eyes. Lucas was a strong werewolf with Alpha blood, and Sophia was a truth seer. Both were strong as hell.
"What happened?" I asked, my voice slightly hoarse. "You collapsed in the observation gallery," Liam explained, squeezing my hand. "Gave everyone quite a scare, especially the children. Tomas has been asking about you every fifteen minutes." I attempted to sit up, but Elena moved swiftly to prev

Grace pov Liam, ever practical, focused on immediate implications. "How does this affect our response to reality-shapers? Does this expanded connection give the equilibrium greater range or power?" "Not exactly, power," I replied thoughtfully. "More like... expanded awareness. Greater understand
