That silver is going to kill Neil?! I don’t wait for any more explanation, I don’t wait for anything at all. Instead, I go to Mia, take her from her playpen, and bring her with me straight to Neil’s door. I knock once, but it’s unlocked so I barge my way in without waiting for a reply. Neil is
Neil looks at me and then at Mia, and there is heartbreak in his face. “I didn’t…” I know he didn’t. He didn’t even touch her! Let alone hit her like she acted! Unless… “It’s the silver?” I say, unsure. His eyes go wide. He looks down at his hands. I’ve never met anyone with silver poisoning
“Please don’t think of me as a monster,” Angela says. Too fucking late. Angela isn’t throwing in the towel after a hardy effort to convince Neil to save himself. She’s throwing it all away without even bothering. Kind of like she’s throwing Neil away. I fucking hate it. “I don’t want Neil to
Now that we know Neil’s life is on the line, maybe they can be convinced to do something to help Neil. At the very least, they might have some Gods damned empathy. So I call them into the living room for a secret meeting about Neil. I’m surprised when Archer, Beau, and Steven all show up promptly.
“Our options are limited,” Archer concedes, and I wilt a bit, hope deflated. “So you aren’t going to do anything – again,” I say. I don’t care how close Archer is, how intimidating he is, or how much he’s glaring. “You are letting Neil take the brunt of your father’s ire all on his own.” “That’s
Beau laughs. I glare at him, but it only makes him laugh harder. “Neil is withstanding torture to protect whatever this thing is, and you expect us to just waltz in and convince him to give it up? Do you know my brother at all?” Okay, that’s a fair point, I guess. Neil is very stubborn. And prot
Beau and I followed closely behind Archer as he made his way toward Neil’s bedroom. Steven, carrying Mia, skirted along behind us. At Neil’s door, Archer doesn’t bother knocking, he simply barges inside. The door’s still unlocked. You’d think Neil would have learned his lesson by now. I’m about
“No,” Neil say, simple as anything. “You can’t say no,” I argue. “I’m telling you I quit.” “I do not accept your resignation.” “You don’t have a choice.” I’m getting angry now. It’s difficult to keep my voice level. “I quit, get it? I’m out. Done. Finished. I’m packing my things and out the do
“Archer…” I start, but I’m still not sure. I don’t want to ruin the surprise. After all, he could just be guessing. The taxi pulls up in front of City Hall. Stepping out onto the sidewalk, I’m immediately bombarded with the flashes of cameras and the shouts of questions. “Mrs. Hayes!” the call f
“It hasn’t even been that long since I left them,” I tell Archer as he and I ride side by side in the back of a truck away from the border lands and back towards home. “But everyone’s so anxious.” I can feel it through the bond. “Can you blame them?” Archer asks. “Their mate is living a life as a
“You’ve been fucked all night, but it’s not enough, is it? You need this dick.” He takes himself in hand and slowly begins to stroke from base to tip. A bead of precum glistens at his slit. I lick my lips, desperate to taste it. “You want to suck my dick, slut?” Archer asks. He steps closer to m
When I awaken, I’m cradled in the safety of Neil’s arms, my cheek to his chest with him carding his fingers through my hair. Lifting my head, he pauses, watching me as I take in our surroundings. This bed has gotten lower somehow or… wait… “We broke the bed,” I say, looking around. “Yes,” Neil
“Show me,” he says. I know what he’s asking me to do. Slowly I place my hands on my shoulders, then trail them down, gently massaging my breasts. I pluck my nipples, gasping. It’s only partially for show. With how much I’ve explored my body while sleeping with these brothers, I know exactly what I
I’m not sure how long I’m on that roof, with Beau holding me in his arms. Gently, he licks at the mark he’s made as if attempting to soothe it. It’s already healed, I can tell, though it never really hurt when he gave it to me. The opposite, actually. “You really are incredible, Nanny,” Beau says,
After snooping, his ear pressed to the door to Steven’s lab, Beau storms back toward the living room where his other brother’s await, furious. “He’s fucking her!” Archer tenses at once, sharing Beau’s outrage. Neil seems annoyed but remains infuriatingly calm like normal. “We’ll each get our t
He glances back at me like clockwork. This time, his eyes widen, seeing my new position. His nostrils flare, scenting the air. I’m not unaffected either, not by any of this. The brothers feel a pull to me, but I feel that pull four times over. I want their bites. I need their bites. That they
As the four brothers look at me with desire burning in their eyes, exhilaration and anticipation rush through me. For so long, I worried about who my mate might be and how I could manage to stay with the Hayes brothers. Now that I belong to them – almost officially, soon as I have their bites – I ca
