I shake my head at him. “Don’t do that! You have no right to demand to see the inside of my mouth!”His little lips fall into a terrible frown. “I’m sorry, mama. I was just playing –“My hands loosen immediately and I sigh, shaking my head as I gather him close. “It’s okay, baby,” I whisper. “I’m sorry too. It’s all right, we’ll just forget about it.”He nods against me and my wolf howls her panic, dashing back and forth in my soul.“All right, to bed,” Auden says, reaching for Vivianna, his face still stern and businesslike. Vivi hops up and jumps into his arms, Coco squawking and fluttering to the bed, following his little girl.Niall looks up at me, worried. “We’re not fighting, are we mama?” I snuggle him close. “Me and you?” I give him a big grin. “Not a chance, baby. We’re best friends.”He laughs and then nods, well pleased by that.“Okay, night, mama!” Vivi calls, held high in her papa’s arms and very happy about it. She waves to me, showing no intent of getting down.I sigh

But this – this. The truth that we’re attracted to each other, when we’ve worked so hard to pretend we’re not? That we’ve fucking slept together in this dream, which is as good as life –That the sex was so fucking good – god damn earth-shaking sex – not just some stupid drunken quickie with a handsome man –The kind of sex that – that changes things –My face falls. I can’t help it. And slowly I shake my head at him.Because we can’t. We can’t. We – we can’t make that change in our real lives – too much depends on it. Beyond our sanity, the children –He groans, leaning forward, studying me. “This is…this is real, isn’t it?” he whispers, his face falling too. “You’re – you’re really here in my dream – this is some ki

“Yeah,” I say, sighing hard, the word completely lame and doing absolutely nothing to encompass the full travesty of this situation. But it’s kind of…all I’ve got right now.Auden suddenly spins back to me, reaching out and wrapping a hand tight around my upper arm. I pull against his grip, baring my teeth on instinct.“Did you tell her?” he snarls, giving me a little shake. “You spent all day with Margot – did you tell her!?”“Tell her what!?” I cry, angry at him when he doesn’t loosen his hand. “That I got dream-spanked by the crown prince!?”His mouth falls clear open in shock, his face turning nearly purple with mortification – but his hand loosens and I tug my arm away, stepping back.“No, Auden!” I snap. “Of course I didn’t! I would never do that! This is fucking private, all right!? I’m sorry it happened – I never meant it to – and it was never supposed to! Margot said that the co-dreaming isn’t supposed to happen unless you’re actually in the room with someone else so I don’t

And it’s not nearly as intense as that – Everleigh’s scent is nowhere near as good as Evie’s had been - but certainly this draw to a woman is the strongest he’s experienced since he lost his mate and failed to find her after she vanished.But a series of anonymous women in his bed had helped him still the grief of Evie’s disappearance, though he’d certainly had to fuck his way through half the women in the army camp to free himself of her grip.Maybe…maybe another lover will do the same thing here.“Auden.”He turns at the door, meeting Everleigh’s eyes, gripping the handle hard to pin himself there, to keep from striding back to the bed and grabbing her to him, ripping that ridiculous robe right off her body.“I’m sorry,” she says quietly.He opens his mouth to protest, to say it’s not her fault – because he honestly believes her when she says she didn’t know.“Will you just let me be sorry?” she says, interrupting, her blue eyes hug

“I’m sorry, little bride,” Mahl murmurs, all grumbly and low and heated. “That I have not had the time for you that I would have wished. This war is…consuming.”“That’s all right,” I say, my voice a little tense as Mahl’s fingers tighten possessively on my flesh. “I…understand. War is…hard?”Pathetic. Pathetic and panicked, that’s all I am.Mahl smirks at me and turns me toward the table, walking forward a step until my rump hits the edge. To my surprise he then lifts me so that I’m seated neatly on the table, my legs spread wide to accommodate the breadth of him between my knees.“My sweet little Queen,” Mahl murmurs, shaking my head like I’m adorable as he leans closer to me - so close I can feel his breath on my face. “Don’t you worry about this war – let daddy handle it –“My eyes do flare a
