I knew it was a bad idea the moment we stepped into the maze. There was something different about the way that Amy looked at me. I think it’s fairly impossible to say that I ever would get over her adoring gaze as it caressed my face. However, this was different. The look she gave me was carnal and full of intent.
The smell of the flowers faded into the background until all I could smell was Amy. Her long blonde hair ruffled in the breeze, making my gut tighten. Her brown eyes, with the flecks of gold in them, began to shine and I caught just the faintest hint of fang.
A good man would have backed away. A better man wouldn’t put himself into these situations in the first place. I, however, was neither good nor better. I was desperate to feel her lips against mine. I longed to have her body writhing beneath me, straddling me, and if I was being totally honest, kneeling before me.
It was wrong, I knew it as much as I knew tha
CHAPTER 63 - Amy“Amy! We have been looking for you everywhere. Anna thinks she has found the spell that can locate my parents.”I glanced at Rachel and Anne who were clutching an old spell book in their hands. My emotions were all over the place. For a moment there, I worried that Henry might strike Brad or vice versa. And Brad didn’t even remember that I had already tasted Henry’s blood and wanted to again.The last thing that I wanted to do was to come between the brothers. I needed to stay away from both of them, and Anna and Rachel were the perfect distraction.“I will come with you,” I moved deftly to their side and clutched at Rachel’s arm.Her brow raised, and I knew that she smelled the desire that still lingered in the air from before. Anna placed an arm around me, and they both ushered me out of the area. By the time we got back to the castle and went directly to the queen’s private rooms
CHAPTER 64 - AmyI wasn’t sure I liked the way Jenny Spark was staring up at me, half fear, half amazement. But it didn’t really matter because Rachel threw herself at both of her parents. It only dawned on me in that moment that her dad’s name was Clark Spark.My lips twitched, and I fought a smile.Anna smiled over at me, but I caught the glimpse of sadness in her eyes.“Are you okay?” I asked her quietly.She nodded and moved closer before saying, “Yeah, I am really happy for her. I just can’t help but wonder what is going on with the Alliance.”It might have been the truth, but something told me that she was hiding the real pain. I had heard stories about her adoptive mother, Susan. Apparently, she was one of the leaders in the order. Supposedly she was dead, but I of all people knew that death wasn’t permanent. According to Henry, the Alliance was chock full of top-notch medi
CHAPTER 65 - AmyPerhaps it was my saucy tone, or the way that I defied him. But I went from being sandwiched between the two brothers to being yanked underneath Brad’ hard body. I felt every inch of him pressing into me. His minty breath washed over me, and I found myself leaning up for his kiss.But to my surprise he pulled back just a fraction of an inch, teasing me with his closeness.“You want a kiss?” His voice had dropped an octave and had an air of authority that made my stomach clench.“You know I do!” I said through clenched teeth. “Just kiss me already, Brad!”His eyes glinted dangerously as he asked, “Who?”I felt another twinge in my core and knew I was soaked.“Please, Master,” I whispered huskily.Henry grunted and growled in my ear. “Are you sure this is a good idea, Amy?”“I can take anything the two of you dish out,&rd
CHAPTER 66 - AmyHenry unlocked the belt holding my wrists together, and then he flipped me onto my knees. I gasped when I looked up to see Brad’ long cock exposed and dripping with need. I stared at it longingly. His body was a little thinner than Henry’s, who resembled a professional athlete. Brad looked more like a runner, with whipcord strength and tight muscles.Henry pushed my thighs apart and for a moment I thought he was actually going to fuck me. I couldn’t even tell you how much I wanted it. But I felt his hands between my thighs instead of his cock. He rubbed the soft globes of my ass with his big rough hands and I pushed back against him. It felt good, damn good to be touched by him.Brad continued to stroke his cock, his eyes never once leaving my body. He moved closer and took one of my dangling breasts into his hands. The hard pinch to my nipple caused my pussy to clench.“Fuck, she likes that,” Henry said in
CHAPTER 67 - Amy“Malcolm is heavily involved with the alliance,” Jenny said, just before accepting a cup of coffee from one of the drones.I could tell that she wasn’t overly fond of the idea that humans willingly gave up their blood for us. She was on edge, her hands shaking and her eyes darting about as if she couldn’t quite believe that she was actually staying in the royal Lycan court.Of course, not everyone was overly happy that two of the most prominent members of the alliance were now being protected by Lycans. As a rule, Lycans are very unforgiving creatures. Okay, so I know that is a huge blanket statement.But I swear it’s one hundred percent true. Most of my case studies are based on my experiences with Veti. The very same individual that was currently sitting beside me and whispering in my ear.“I can’t believe that you slept with Brad and Henry,” she hissed.“Shh,”
CHAPTER 68 - BradI found myself staring at her, unable to think, unable to breathe. She and Veti were whispering on the couch. It made me wonder what they were talking about. Whatever it was, Amy had a beautiful flush staining her cheeks.It reminded me of the night before when she was in my arms.Henry and I had to come to an agreement earlier. Neither one of us could deny the pull that she has on us. I can’t say that I was thrilled with the arrangement. But there was something right about the three of us last night, something that resonated inside of me.I love Amy. I could admit it, maybe not openly—yet. But I have known that she has been the one for me in my heart far longer than my mind would be willing to admit.There is no way that I will allow the Alliance to come anywhere near her. I have spent the last twenty years protecting her.After the meeting ended, Veti asked to speak with Amy alone so Henry and I went out int
CHAPTER 69 - AmyMy panties were damp, and my core was aching, not an uncommon occurrence when I was with Brad, but this felt overwhelming. His kisses were almost punishing and yet so protective and passionate. I loved that I was able to touch him. My hands roamed over his strong chest and sculpted arms. I moved them up to his broad shoulders and then sank my hands into his hair. I loved the texture and softness along with the smell of his shampoo.This was it. I was going to have sex for the first time, and it was going to be fucking amazing.I moved my hands back down his body. As I passed his six-pack, I heard him moan. Brad was fully erect, and I wanted some of that. Just as I went to unbuckle his pants, I heard a loud noise like breaking glass, and then shouting.Wrenching his lips away from mine, Brad said, “I need to see what is going on.”“Now?” My plea was not unheard. Brad reached out his hand cupping my face.
CHAPTER 70 – AmyThe palace guards were able to get the intruders taken into custody. But there was no sign of Margaret or Malcolm in the mix. We also were unable to figure out where they entered the palace.Just as Brad had spirited me away in the passage in the wall, there were literally dozens of other hidey holes and secret tunnels that they could have entered.When Henry made it back to us, he insisted that I leave the castle and once again go back into hiding. You can imagine my response.“There is no way in hell that I am going back to live in a hole in the ground!”Veti raised a brow and said dryly, “Come now, it wasn’t as bad as all that.”I rounded on her with fire in my eyes. “I can’t believe that you are in on this! I thought of all people, you would support me.”Veti looked wounded. “Amy,” she implored.But I was not in the mood to listen.
Chapter 6Lola“I hate to break up this special version of Sixteen Candles, but you two are going to need to get to dressed. The alarm went off in the garage.”I gaped at Ike was who standing in the moonlight in nothing by his boxer briefs and a healthy bulge that was saluting somebody.“Fuck,” Jake mumbled as we jumped out of bed and threw on our shoes. I couldn’t look at him or his friend. Had Ike heard us talking? Embarrassment washed over me, but I didn’t have time to think about it. The sounds of broken glass had me wincing. Did they destroy Ike’s car?Guilt flooded me as we crept along the back hallway. Ike had pulled on some clothes and boots, and pulled a key from his pocket motioning us to follow.“We need a diversion,” Ike whispered to Jake. “Time for that bibbity bobbity bullshit you’re so good at.”Jake scowled at his friend, but still managed to mutter a spell. We came to a door and Ike opened it and motioned for us to go through. Once we were inside a saw a long stairway
Chapter 5 LolaDo you ever lie awake at night and wonder what it is about that particular moment that causes you to be awake? I tried to tell myself that it had to be the rain tap-dancing on the old metal roof that kept me from resting.After all, it couldn’t have been the fact that I had over six feet of raw masculinity lying next to me. Or the fact that I could literally smell the essence of his blood, and it drew me in faster than anything I’d ever faced before. I wanted to lick him from head to two. My incisors had long since descended, and I was fairly certain that Jake did not know that I was seconds away from ravishing him.Do people even say ravish anymore? That’s what this has unraveled to… delirium.The only thing that had stopped me from sinking my fangs into his neck was that he was my best friend—my only friend.Did I want to jump his bones? Hell yes, make no mistake about that. I’d have him over me, under me, inside of me. Shit, anyway, he would take him. But what happe
Chapter 4JakeI knew someplace we could crash for the night.Surprisingly enough, getting Lola out of the compound had been uneventful. Was it too uneventful? How the fuck was I to know? All I knew was the unease creeping up my spine had me wide awake, while Lola slept on the tattered couch in Ike’s shop.The Alliance seemed to always be two steps ahead. They had a way of convincing you that black was white, and pink was yellow. The note that had been left in her room had been the final straw.Lola mumbled something in her sleep, causing me to glance over at her sleeping form.“She’s fucking beautiful,” Ike commented from where he laid underneath his bike.I tried not to bristle at the comment because Ike was only stating the truth. I didn’t have friends, that wasn’t a legacy given to a magical foster kid turned Alliance captive. However, in one of the trashy homes I’d been kicked out of, Ike had also been a resident. Sadly, the piece of shit foster dad shared Ike’s DNA. On a cold ni
Chapter 83 - LolaLolaThe handwriting wasn’t familiar. That was the first thing I noticed about the note that Jake had found beneath my pillow. The second was that a certain scent clung to the paper. At once it seemed familiar and yet foreign.“I don’t like this,” Jake said as I took the note from his hand.I was glad he was with me. As much as I was used to some crazy ass things happening around me. This had shaken me to know that someone had been in my room while I was sleeping. I was a Lycan for hell’s sake.“You’re shaking,” Jake said coming to stand behind me and wrapping his hands around my waist.I sank back into his embrace as he rested his head on top of mine. Jake was so much bigger than I was. As much as I was attracted to him, and let’s not underestimate how much I wanted the boy. But despite all of that, I felt comfortable around him. I wasn’t ever w
Chapter 82 - JakeJakeI watched as those two dick heads left her room and fought the seething urge to rip their heads off. Malcolm and Sven Draven were two of the biggest pricks I had ever met, and growing up in the foster care system, I’d met my fair share of pricks.The Alliance had found me there when I was ten. Apparently, turning your shitty foster dad into a rat was frowned upon. Instead of switching foster homes and covering everything up, which had been the norm for me, I was taken by a woman and told that I was being ‘adopted’.The legality of it all was sadly lacking, but to a ten-year-old, anything the system told you to do, you did. From there I was sent to therapy. But unlike any of the other court ordered therapy that I had attended before. This therapist wanted to know more about what had happened when I had used my magic.I wasn’t stupid. I knew that others didn’t possess the gifts t
Chapter 81 - LolaLolaThey say I am evil.They say I am a monster.They say that in order to restore our people, I must kill my sisters. The same sisters that I have no memory of, I am to slaughter them as they have slaughtered our people.They say I am powerful, but the truth is that I am a pawn, in a world of knights all fawning to a false queen.I have stayed silent while they have plotted and planned around me. I have allowed the rebels a chance to show their true colors. I have tolerated the foolish notions that I will do what I am told.But I am of the royal bloodline. I will do as I see fit and to hell with what they say.I am Lola.The only thing I am guilty of is harboring inappropriate thoughts about my best friend. And they are wholly inappropriate. Disgustingly, sensual thoughts that cause my stomach to flip and my
CHAPTER 80 – AmyHenry moved to untie my hands and I slumped into the soft bed covers. I felt like liquid, my limbs not at all behaving as I wanted them to. I was malleable, willing to be whatever they wished me to be.“I need you to feed on me, Amy,” Henry said tenderly as he pulled me into his chest. “You will need your strength to finish this.”Brad moved behind me and spread my cheeks.“I am going to put this lubricant on and begin to stretch you. But Amy, you need to do as Henry says. The pleasure from your orgasm will help to mask any pain from taking us both the first time.”I nodded and turned my face into Henry’s neck. He smelled of soap and sweat, he smelled of man and sex, and he smelled like my sweet Henry. My incisors come down and I sank my teeth into him. The rush of exhilaration washing over me had my eyes rolling back into my head.“Fuck, she is tight,&rdq
CHAPTER 79 - AmyBrad licked and sucked at my juices, ravenous in the way that he took me. This was finally my moment, the time when I would submit everything to my lovers, and we would become one. I could hardly stand the anticipation of it.My hips wanted to move, but Brad kept a firm grasp on them. Henry continued to kiss me while his hands snaked out and captured mine. I felt them lifting and then being fastened to the headboard. At the same moment, Brad’ mouth left my pussy and I cried out into Henry’s kiss.But he wasn’t leaving, Brad was taking each of my feet and fastening the cuffs that would leave me spread before them like a feast. I felt the air on my tender folds and relished the feeling of erotic decadence. I imagined a room full of faceless men that all wanted me, were dying for just a glimpse of my naked flesh. It was nothing that I would want to have in real life, but as far as fantasies go, it caused my juices to flow even m
CHAPTER 78 - Amy“Necromancy is a certain type of magic involving communication with the deceased—either by summoning their spirit or raising them bodily. It is often considered sorcery or black magic as it goes against the natural order of things.”I rubbed my hands as I listened to Veti repeat what we had read about necromancy. It wasn’t anything that I hadn’t discussed with her a million times. But it felt different knowing that there is someone else out there with the same gifts, but she uses them for evil.I had a sneaking suspicion that Jenny Sparks was behind all of this. She was the one who caused trouble in the first place for Anna. It only made sense. Now the trouble was to convince the others. It was one thing to hear about Roman being forced to take out his mother.I had a much greater empathy for Anna’s mate. I can’t imagine going through that once, only to hear that you needed to do it all ag
