*Mark* I walk quickly toward the throne room. The king has summoned me, and I wonder if he wants to ask me why I missed dinner last night. Maybe this is the best time to discuss the fact that Emily isn’t Luna material. I know she is his cousin, so I wonder how he’ll react. As I near the throne ro
This time I clench my fists. “What threat did he issue?” Eli asks in a cold tone. “He will attack the castle,” the king tells us as he slams his fist on the throne's armrest. “Does he really think he can do that and succeed?” I ask. If he thinks his warriors can conquer the royal troops, he is a
*Tristan* “Nice save back there, man,” Reece says to me as we walk away from the king. “Yeah, well, you said a mouthful about Rose,” I mutter back to him. All four of us snicker, but we really have a lot of work ahead of us if we are to stop Alpha Kane from being successful in his attack. While
I have to look away and literally bite down on the inside of my cheek to keep from laughing. “Uh… no. I mean… bedroom toys.” She is still lost. “There are bedroom toys?” I nod. “Yes, quite a few, and I like to use them, but I don’t want to do anything you’re not comfortable with.” “Oh.” She shrug
*Rose*My night with Tristan was so different than anything I’ve ever experienced before. Just when I thought I was beginning to get a hang of this stuff, these men come along and do something I have never even thought of before.As much as sex with the men makes me come undone, that vibrator felt a
Perhaps it is better to keep one’s sexy stories to oneself….Later that evening, Reece comes to my room. I have decided not to go to his room anymore because it is too… untidy.We are sitting on my bed, locked in an embrace, kissing, when he asks, “What do you wanna do, darlin’?”Immediately, my eye
*Rose* “I have something for you!” Shelby has a crooked grin on her face as she hands me a box, but I don’t want to open it. Kelly is with us, and we are in my room after brunch. I am sitting in the infamous chair that we used last night. It has been disinfected…. Still, I didn’t think it would be
I think she’s crazy, that’s what I think. I think… in the end… I will end up alone with only the memories of these amazing men to keep me warm at night–and this stupid vibrator. That night, in Eli’s room, he can tell I’m upset. We sit on his couch, and he holds me against his muscular chest, strok
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.
