*Reece* I hold the stray hand that's crawling down my bicep and turn. "Do you just go around touching men, Emily?" It's a firm warning I'm giving off since I'm not trying to play coy about what is happening here. And neither is she, apparently. She leans away, her eyes bearing the singed pride of
I take a sip from my glass. So that is what they were talking about when I spotted them with the king earlier. “Aren’t you jealous about the prospect of sharing Rose?” I ask him. Eli inclines his head to the side and seems to smile. “No. I know once I get my turn with her, the rest of you are hist
I draw her close and inhale her scent. She smells like a fruity garden, and it’s dizzying in a way that makes me want to sweep her into my arms and carry her somewhere where it can just be the two of us. “Are you okay?” I whisper into her ear as we sway to the rhythm. I can hear her gulp. “Yeah,”
*Rose* This isn’t how I thought the ball was going to go earlier in the day when I was picking out this gown. I expected to stay for a few hours, to possibly dance with all of the Alphas, but when Reece gave me the opportunity to leave, I took it. After all, I saw Emily there, and if I stayed, I m
“Y-yes,” I whisper. He takes his time, carefully removing my jewelry first before he bends down and unbuckles my shoes. When he stands back up, he is breathless, but not from exertion. His eyes are twinkling as he quietly says, “May I unzip your gown?” I can’t breathe either, so I simply turn arou
I lean over him, and he takes a nipple between his lips, massaging the other with his hand, and I find my heart beginning to race. I find myself rocking back and forth on his cock, but my panties are in the way. I need them off. I don’t want to pull away from his expert mouth, though. Reaching bac
*Reece* It had taken me forever to fall asleep the night before, but not because I wasn’t comfortable or happy, which was often the case when I couldn’t sleep. No, this time, it was the exact opposite. I simply didn’t want to take my eyes off Rose. I’ve slept with a lot of women in my life, but non
She takes a deep breath and then says, “Thank you, Reece.” I smile at her. “Of course. Now, you have a great day, and hopefully, I will see you soon.” I lean down and press my lips to hers, and she kisses me back. Opening the door for her, I watch her go into her room, and when she closes the door
I look at Shelby. “Shelby… why?” She looks like she’s about to burst, and she finally spits it out. “Because I’m pregnant!” My eyes go wide, and I want to grab her and jump up and down, but I don’t want to squish Reeva, so I do a milder equivalent of that, which involves one arm and bouncing more
Rose It feels strange going back to Castle Dark Forest, and it’s going to feel even weirder being there again. It’s been so long since I first arrived there for the stupid contest… well, I guess without that contest, I would have never met my Alphas, so I suppose I won’t call it stupid anymore. I
Eli seems only half-convinced, and once Kelly and this guy are finally separated, he clears his throat.“I’m going to need the name of the guy who just sucked face with my sister,” he says firmly. “And I need to know where you’re from, and whether you have a criminal record, and—”Kelly slaps Eli’s
RoseI can’t believe how much the Goddess has blessed me. I remember all the times I was hunched over on the floor of the sewage plant trying to force myself to breathe through my mouth to avoid the stench. It didn’t work very well. I also remember all those lonely nights in my high school years whe
After a moment, I remember and quickly free him from the rest of his clothes. He pulls my nightgown over my head and tosses it exactly where he thought it should go and then lays me on the bed, All I’m wearing now is a tiny red thong. He stands at the foot of the bed and takes me in. “Damn,” he mur
Mark It’s my turn to spend the night with Rose, and I can hardly wait. It is a little odd being in this position, sharing my mate with four other men, but now that we have our situation settled, I realize I wouldn’t want it any other way. I’m carrying flowers as I go into her room. I think she’s p
“No, little flower,” says Tristan.The smile on his face and twinkle in his eye made my heart skip a beat.“He’s not allowed anywhere near our precious little pups,” he clarifies. “Just the diapers. Dirty diapers, all day long… that’s his new job! We’ll watch him every second.”“But you don’t have t
RoseI love spending time out in the garden, and now I’m doing it with four little bundles of joy. I’ve heard that expression so many times, but now that I’m a mother, I really understand just how much joy those little bundles can bring. And with all the fear of losing them that I’ve experienced ove
“No.” Alpha Alice crosses her hands across her chest. “I’m staying out of this. If these Alphas want to take you, so be it. I know how the contest was supposed to go, and if one of them had a male baby, then that will be the next Alpha King. I’m not getting on their bad side.”“Appalling!” I shout.
