“Talk to your cousin?” Alpha Stephen repeats. He has stopped dancing, along with me, but his hand is still gripping mine. “About what, Emily, dear?” “About… things.” I’m not sure how specific I should be at this point. “Come on.” I give his hand a tug and start walking before I even establish where
*Mark*The moment Alpha Morris hangs up the phone, I’m on him.His eyes bulge as he sees me flying at him, my hands still in the pockets of my suit pants. “Morris?” I ask, biting my lip for a second to keep from losing my cool. “What the fuck did I just hear you say?”His eyes bulge slightly, and he
“I… I’m not considering it,” Morris refutes, wiping the sweat that’s pouring down his forehead onto his sleeve. “I would never ever… it was just… my pack needs the money, that’s all.”“What were you supposed to do?” Rose asks him, and I squeeze her hand, waiting for him to answer.“It’s nothing, Mis
*Tristan* I listen to Mark trying to convince Rose that everything is going to be all right, but I’m not completely sure he’s convincing her. He isn’t convincing me. We still have a lot left to do. Before I can suggest that we get back to the dance, Eli says, “Alpha Stephen is a notoriously evil
I notice that Alpha Stephen and Emily are approaching Gene now, and the other Alphas that were standing around him take off, leaving the three of them together to discuss… whatever it might be that Emily thinks she’s convinced Alpha Stephen to do. “What do you think they’re talking about?” Reece as
*Emily*It has been two months of daily usage of one of the wands in my drawers, two months since my last toe-curling orgasm from a man. I watch as the attendees of my party begin to depart. I can’t let Alpha Stephen go. I need him to take care of a delicate itch only a cock is built to scratch.Ton
I raise my eyebrow at him, wondering what he was talking about again. Did he have a fetish for sleeping with women on their periods? Ew!“No. Come in.” I pull him into the room and close the door. The drapes are closed. I light the red candles around the room. I’ve been told that a red flame charges
*Eli* We all watch as the king taps his fingers on the windowsill, looking out over the fertile green lands of the prosperous kingdom. Prosperous, happy, and headed for absolute disaster if we don’t win this war and stop Alpha Kane. The battleline is engraved deep in the sand, and Alpha Kane isn’t
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.
