I wake up to the feel of someone gently rubbing me with a soft, damp cloth. Even though I have no reason to believe that it would be anyone other than Archer doing so, I still can’t quite wrap my head around him being so kind until I open my eyes and actually catch him in the act. I don’t want to
Neil and Archer’s growls became more and more prominent until they were echoing down the hallways, loud enough to likely be heard even outside. I try to step between them, but Archer’s hold on me is vicelike, keeping me immobile at his side. And none of my shouting seems to be getting through. “
That… was my name. Steven just… he moaned my name. My brain is short-changing. I’m having trouble keeping up. Logically, I know what I’m seeing. Even with Steven’s back to me, I can tell he’s masturbating. But for him to say my name. Is he pleasuring himself while he’s thinking… about me? That
I could prove I want him. I could be as wanton as he wants. More, even. I’d writhe and squirm. I’d beg until I’m hoarse. Whatever he wants, he could have it, on the promise that he’d touch me after. I can’t resist anymore. What little willpower I had flies straight out the window. I slip my ha
I don’t want to admit to myself that I am hiding in my old bedroom, but there’s not really any other way to spin it. I am hiding, not just from Steven, but from Archer, Neil, and Beau too. I have no idea how my life came to this. Before I moved into the Pyramid, I’d more or less given up on boys
Steven’s words leave me speechless a moment. Of course there’s nothing wrong with what he said. It’s more than okay to only want to have sex for love. What bothers me right now is how much of a massive ass I’ve been to him. In hindsight, I could clearly see how much I’ve been pressuring him, inten
Still holding me against his chest, Archer sits down on the couch. He finally releases me some, but only so much that I’m not sitting in his lap instead. His arms wrap around me like chains. I’m not against the position entirely, and he’s not hurting me. But it would be nice to do what I wanted and
“I’d worried when I had heard you were in the hospital,” Alpha King Hayes said through the phone. “You should have called me and told me of your condition. I would have done everything in my power to have helped.” Oh, what a cruel, vicious man. How I would love to give him the verbal thrashing of
I’m happy because I have four hearts beating alongside mine.“Do you feel it, too?” I ask. “My connection to each of you?”I blink my eyes open once more. I want to see their faces, their reactions.Neil has his hand over his own heart. “It’s strange. It’s like part of you is inside of me.”“Me, too
In the darkness of my mind, I floated, surrounded by the comforting embrace of love. Distantly, I could feel another presence, one that grew stronger and stronger, the more I focused on it: my wolf.As I thought of her, she appeared before me as if I willed her into being. Maybe I did. We are in my
Damn alpha wolves and their heightened senses.“I’ve already made my choice,” I say. “Honestly, I think I made it a long, long time ago.”Archer relaxes marginally. Steven starts to smile.Neil turns to me, worry still on his face. “You say that now, Chloe. But the pull could be strong…”“I don’t ca
The eve of my birthday, I rest in bed and stare at my ceiling. It’s late, near midnight, but I still have my bedside light on.With my feelings shared and grown with Neil, Archer, and Steven, I didn’t expect to spend any night alone, especially the one right before the day that could change everythi
I awake to a sharp knock on my bedroom door. Neil’s arm is still draped over me but some distance had inched between our hot bodies in the night. I’m able to slink out from under his arm without him waking.Naked, I quickly stop by the bathroom to throw on my fluffy bathrobe. Then, after glancing ba
They.Beau glances at me and see my incredulous look. “What do I need to go out every night? Can’t a man just enjoy staying home for a change?”“You can do whatever the hell you want,” I say.“Good, then.” Beau slumps down on the couch. He stretches out, lifting his feet up and into my lap. “Now tel
For the rest of the morning, I desperately try not to think about Neil. Whoever he’s in love with, I won’t be offended by it. The hurt I feel has nothing to do with this new person. She must be great for her to have won Neil’s affections.The hurt is my own loss, my own problem. I let my feelings fo
After Steven and I have cleaned ourselves up with a quick shower, we fall back into bed together, giggling and laughing all the way. My now, Steven has discovered a few of my tickle zones, which he is exploiting. As revenge, I touch the places I now know make him shiver.For a while, nothing seems l
His hands fumbled with the buttons of his own shirt. Such usually steady hands are rendered useless by his nervousness.“Allow me,” I tell him. I lightly bat his hands out of the way before replacing them with mine on his shirt buttons. My times with Neil have served me well. I’m able to undo all th
