Lorenzo looked away from Atticus and at Shadow, who was having the time of his life. “You think it’s going to piss him off that I’m trying to make sure he spends the rest of his life with someone better than me?” Lorenzo asked.Kai sighed, but Atticus only shook his head as if he pitied Lorenzo. “You’ve spent so many years on earth, but I’m afraid your knowledge of romance is severely lacking.” Atticus said.Lorenzo opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out of his mouth because Atticus was right. He has never actually had a romantic life because he was awkward whenever it came down to it.He had a girlfriend once, but he’d been stupid enough to show her that he would rather be somewhere training or fighting than stay home and cuddle with her.When she eventually left, he didn’t blame her. He was even surprised that she’d stated that long with him, he was surprised that she had put up with all of his bullshit for that long.He never cheated on her, but he never really exp

The silence stretched, growing longer and uncomfortable by the minute, and as if Kai could tell that none of them could handle the silence anymore, he bursted out laughing.The sound of his laughter sent chills down Nora’s spine as she stared at him as if he was a foreign entity. Kai was aware of the intense glare on him, and he was also aware of how the atmosphere changed when Nora opened her mouth.“What’s so funny, Kai?” Nora asked, her voice shaky as she looked at Kai with those sympathetic eyes that always had him doing anything for her in seconds.Thinking back now, Kai wondered how and why he had let that work on him when the Bensons were nothing but bunches of traitors and murderers.“Huh?” Kai muttered, his eyes void of light, or any kind of emotion. He looked at Nora as though he would rather be doing anything else, and quite frankly, he would.Whoever was in possession of Nora’s body must be really stupid. Kai was disappointed because there was no way an entity that was thi

FELIX’S POV. My cock throbbed, wanting more, and I almost couldn’t believe that I could have an orgasm just by thinking about sharing the woman I love with my heart and soul. I hadn’t even fucked her yet, but I didn’t need to. Penelope was already exhausted, but I still wasn’t done. I needed to make sure that she agreed to sharing her body, and this was nowhere near what I had planned. “Oh my God, Felix.” She breathed as I stood to my feet, her eyes were already half closed as she started sliding down the wall, but I caught her before she could hit the ground. “There we go.” I laughed as I lifted her in my arms. “I’m not done with you, Penelope. You cannot be tired now.” I said as I kissed her, and I could feel the pleasure of anticipation zing through her body. Her muscles pulled taut, and I smiled. This was what I wanted—to give her a glimpse of who she used to be, of the things we used to do before. Our sex life even after marriage had been good, but I knew we both knew that

OCTAVIA ADLER. “Okay, are you all set?” Aidan asked even though it was glaring that I was all set. I was wearing a really flowery sundress, I had my sunglasses although I didn’t know if I was going to need it or not. I took it anyway. Aidan had told me to wear something I felt comfortable in, and those, including a sandal that he had put on for me were my choice. I had a small handbag, but I knew by now that I wouldn’t be carrying it, seeing as Aidan already had it with him. “You look breathtaking, I don’t know if I can ever stop staring at you.” He said, pulling me into him so hard that I crashed into his chest, and before I knew what was going on, his mouth was on mine. I’d lost count of how many times he had complimented me, lost count of how many times and in how many words he had told me that I looked beautiful. “Stop.” I whined, even though I liked it, and quite frankly, I didn’t want him to stop. “Why should I?” Aidan asked, planting a small kiss on my nose. “I’m telling

Catherine trusted him, and she believed that he would handle whatever evil was about to befall them, but that was it. She didn’t want to place the burden on just Kai alone.She wanted to help him out in any way that she could, but she had a feeling that with everything that’s been going on with her, Kai might refuse her help.After thinking about it for a while, she decided to be the one to bring it up. “You know….” Her voice trained off as she smiled up at him and drew an imaginary line on his chest.“What?” Kai asked with a raised brow, he was keen on hearing what she wanted to say, and if it had something to do with her joining the mission or other things that could put her in harm’s way, he would try to shut it down.He didn’t want to hurt or break her heart, but he also didn’t want her to be in danger, and with him letting that person that had possessed Nora’s body go, he needed to keep a close watch on Catherine.“Teresa’s herbs, it worked, I just thought I was going to tell you
