“No,” I said, my voice harsher than I intended. “No, we are destined mates. We are meant to be together, Chloe. The Moon Goddess doesn’t make mistakes this big.”
Chloe shifted in my lap, pressing against my erection. I let out a hiss involuntarily. She froze. “Did I hurt you?”
“No,” I ground out. “I just…” I trailed off, not sure how I could point out the obvious delicately. I didn’t want to freak her out. I didn’t intend for anything to happen between us tonight. She was still injured and was getting used to the idea that we were mates. I didn’t want to push her away.
She shifted again, pressing herself up against my cock, and I hissed.
“Are you trying to figure out how to delicately saw I’m pressing against your cock.”

AdrianChloe dozed, her nose twitching every couple of minutes. I studied her soft features in the early morning light, trying to memorize every freckle on her face. I still couldn’t believe that we’d just made love. It was so much more than just sex for me – Chloe was my mate, and being with her was the most important thing I’d ever done in my life.“If you take a picture, it’ll last longer,” Chloe said.I blinked down at her. Her eyes were still firmly shut, but a soft smile tilted the corner of her lips. “Are you awake?”She blinked lazily and yawned. “Mostly. Why are you still up?”I should have told her it was because I was about to leave, but that was just an excuse. I’d stayed awake because I’d needed to hold her, to assure myself that she was real and in my arms and mine. My

Chloe“So, tell me, sweet Chloe, what was it like growing up? It must have been different than my stuffy upbringing.”“I remember moving around a lot,” I said, pulling a t-shirt over my head. I’d been relieved to find out that the royal family tended to dress casually day to day. While it was fun to play dress up for special occasions, dressing up every day seemed like a chore.I turned around and found Adrian completely dressed already. I frowned at him. “Where did you get clean clothes?” As far as I knew, I didn’t have any men’s clothing in my room. Had he had someone bring them to him? I hoped not; I didn’t really want to advertise that he’d spent the night here. Not yet, at least.He had the decency to look slightly embarrassed. “I might have brought them last night in the hopes that I’d need them. I was

AdrianI didn't know I had the capacity to love another being the way I loved Chloe. I hadn't said the words out loud yet. For some reason, I felt like if I said them, the spell would be broken, and she wouldn't be mine anymore. It was a silly fear but one that persisted, nonetheless."We've got to stop meeting this way," Chloe said, closing my bedroom door behind her and locking it.I raised an eyebrow at this. "You're the one that just barged into my rooms.""Would you like me to leave?" she asked, all innocent.She already knew my answer. "Absolutely not. Come here."She beamed and hurried out, all acts put aside. Carefully, Chloe climbed onto my lap, her legs wrapping around the sides of the chair. I could feel her heat on my already hard cock. It seemed to be my constant state of being whenever she was around."You kn

AdrianArmed with both DNA samples, I called up Uncle Byles the next day. I’d spent a sleepless night tossing and turning, trying to convince myself I was doing the right thing and by first light, I’d concluded that there was no other option. A DNA test had to be done, and it made sense to run it without worrying either party. At least, that’s what I told myself.“What’s up, Adrian?” he answered on the second ring. “I just saw you at dinner. Did something happen?”Uncle Byles was Father’s younger brother. In fact, Father had been almost 20 when Uncle Byles was born. He was only a couple of years older than me, and we’d always been relatively close. Our relationship was more that of friends than uncle and nephew. As such, Uncle Byles was always invited to our family dinners on Sundays.While I was getting ready to take o

AdrianI left the hospital, unease still rolling beneath my skin. I knew I was doing the right thing, but it still felt like no matter the outcome, I couldn't win. I just prayed that Chloe would forgive me when it came time to tell her the truth.I was still distracted the next day when Chloe snuck into my rooms around midnight. She crawled into bed with me and snuggled up against my side. I wrapped a protective arm around her and growled in satisfaction when she pressed even closer. I wished we could spend the rest of our lives like this. Now that I’d found my mate, I couldn’t imagine a world in which we weren’t together."You're stressed," she said, an observation, not a question."There's a lot going on," I said, careful not to utter any lie to my mate. Despite the bond, trust was earned, and I wasn't about to destroy the relationship we were creating.&nbs

ChloeAdrian was making me nervous. He’d joined me on my walk in the gardens, but he’d been twitchy the entire time and unable to hold a conversation. Finally, I set us down on a bench away from the palace and cleared my throat. “Adrian.”He glanced up with a frown. We were sitting side by side, but there was a noticeable gap between us. While I would have preferred to be pressed up against his side, I knew we needed to keep the distance in case anyone happened upon us. We were still keeping up the ruse that we weren’t mates, which meant I couldn’t act in the way I desired. Or he desired, but I knew he wanted to hold me as much as I wanted to be held. “Yes?”I raised an eyebrow at him. “Do you want to tell me what’s on your mind, or am I supposed to just guess?”He instantly deflated in front of my eyes, his shoulders s

ChloeAlexander, Knox, and I were in the middle of a heated game of rummy when my bedroom door flew open and bounced off the wall. I was almost certain there was a dent in the drywall now. All three of us stared at King Charles, confused by his violent entrance.He looked enraged. I exchanged a worried glance with the boys, unsure what to do. They’d had far more experience when their father was mad. I had none. He wasn’t really my father, though, I supposed. I pushed the thought away. I didn’t want to deal with the crippling debt I still felt.“You,” the King hissed, pointing at me.“Me?” I squeaked. I had a sinking feeling I knew exactly why the King was mad, and unfortunately, I didn’t know how to explain it away.“You knew,” he hissed.“Father,” Alexander tried. “
