The first time I had a message pop up on my phone, I was flabbergasted. I really had no idea where it came from. It took a few more and some working on my author page to realize the messages were from my f a c e b o o k author page. I’m telling you, this is how new I am to social media stuff. Anyway, I’ve had people reach out, and I want to say thank you, first of all. It means a lot when you care enough to reach out. I know it’s not easy to do.

After what felt like forever, a pack celebration dinner, time with the pups, a run in wolf form with Zoe, Caleb, Axel, and Damon, Conri holding his daughters for the first time, promises of a debriefing first thing the next morning, Thea and the triplets finally made it to their bedroom to be alone.
The triplets stripped while she mind linked Arella, Ophelia, and Cassandra and asked them if she could mark Conri’s new body. They answered a moment later. “I see him marked and nothing bad happens,” Cassandra mind linked Thea. “Me too,” Arella mind linked her. “I think it’s safe,” Ophelia added.
“We’re here, darling,” Kai said. He kissed her hand then held it against his chest. “Right here, my love,” Ric said. He placed her other hand on his cheek. “It’s your turn to mark me, baby,” Conri murmured against his mark. Thea shivered. “I’ve missed your impatience,” Thea said. She opened her
Thea almost walked out of the bedroom the next morning without showering, but Conri grabbed her and carried her to the bathroom. “You’re covered in cum, baby,” Conri said. They had continued making love well into the night. He set her down in the shower, and Kai and Alaric started taking off her cl
