“What’s this?” he demanded, a growl to his voice as I yanked my hand back. “The moon mated me to Roary.” “No,” he said in refusal of those words. “Yes,” I shot back. “Two mates?” he snarled and if I wasn’t totally delusional, jealousy gleamed in his eyes. “What’s the matter? You wanna trade in that curse for one of these?” I waved the moon mark at him teasingly and his fangs snapped out in anger. “Never,” he said coolly. “Then what’s the problem?” “There isn’t one,” he muttered and silence fell between us once more.
“Oh really? So who should I be with then? Because the only woman who has ever tempted me into desiring her for more than her blood and her body turned out to be a lying whore who was only ever looking to use me.” “That’s what you think of me?” I demanded, feeling like he’d just struck me with those words. “It’s the truth, isn’t it?”
Cain advanced on me, his fangs bared as I wriggled backwards and I raised my chin as I caught his eye. "No biting," I commanded, making him pause. "What? Why not?" "I'm going to make you work for it, stronzo," I purred, sitting up so that I could push my jumpsuit down my arms. "You need to learn a lesson in delayed gratification."
But I know how uncommon scars are and I know that they're not exactly a turn on, so-" Cain growled at me as he snatched his hand back out of my grip, grabbing my waist again and throwing me back down on the bed beneath him. "Maybe I need to teach you something while I've got you at my mercy, Rosalie," he said and I swear the way he growled my name sent a shiver darting through me all the way to my core. "What's that?" I asked breathily, watching him as he reared over me, his gaze roaming down my body, fixing on my left side with more intensity than I thought anyone had ever looked at me

When he made it to the one that curved over my hip, he followed the line of my body until he was burying his face between my thighs and sucking my clit between his teeth. I gasped as his fangs almost broke the skin but as I tried to jerk back, he just pushed forward, sinking two fingers into me and groaning as he continued to lick and suck me.
pulled back as I felt him teetering on the edge, looking up at him as his muscles strained against my vines and giving him an innocent look. "If you can break free before I make you come for me, I'll let you put me in my place and bite me too," I challenged. "But you might want to hurry up, because I think I'm about to finish you."
"This is your fault," he snarled in my ear. "You made me do this, didn't you? You wanted to ruin me the first moment you laid eyes on me, didn't you?" "Yes," I gasped as he drove in harder, punishing me like he wanted to while I loved every fucking second of it. "You've been aching for my cock, haven't you Twelve?" "Yes," I panted. "Almost as much as you've been aching for me." He snarled as he slammed in harder, stealing my breath as I could feel his dick swelling within me, but he was holding off his release, dragging this out as long as he could manage. "Come for me then, inmate. Show me

"You were always going to ruin me, weren't you?" Cain breathed, resting his forearm against the door above my head as he leaned down to look into my eyes. "Perhaps we were always meant to ruin each other," I suggested. "But either way, I don't seem to be able to stop it." "Then don't," he replied, his eyes flashing with vulnerability for a moment before he locked the feeling down again and looked away from me. I caught his chin in my grasp and made him meet my gaze. "Maybe I won't," I breathed, tiptoeing up to press a kiss to his lips. "But I guess the only way you'll find out is by sticking

“Wow, look at this one,” Sin said, picking up another rock and showing it to me. “Stop it,” I warned as he raised his hand and threw it at me as hard as he could. I dodged it just in time, but the last three had left damn bruises on me and Roary was sporting a few of his own too. “What’s your problem?” Roary snarled. “I’m just playing a game, you’re the one being a party pooper.” Sin picked up another rock. “Wow. This one’s pretty.” He pelted it at Roary and the Lion ducked it, lunging at Sin and grabbing his throat. “Enough,” Roary snapped. “If you have a problem, say it. Don’t act like a

“Actually...I need to do something, and you might not like it.” “What?” I frowned and he cleared his throat. “You’re a part of my pride now, so I need to use my Charisma on you. Try and make you serve me,” he said, looking apologetic. “It’s a Lion thing.” “Okay, you can do that, but only if you let me do something weird too.” I ran a hand down the back of my neck. “Deal,” he said with a smirk. “What is it?” I sighed. “I need to sniff you. Like, really sniff you. Then I need to scent mark the hell out of you.” “Are you gonna piss on me?” he asked in horror. “No,” I laughed. “I just have to…rub

“You ready?” he asked and I nodded, sure I’d be strong enough not to do a single thing he wanted. I had a will of iron, a backbone of sun steel. He’d never…oh wow, he’s pretty though. And he looks like he could use a massage for those big shoulders of his. It must be hard carrying around those muscles all day long.
Roary purred so hard that I could feel the vibrations of it through my fingertips and a smirk pulled at my lips. “Cats are stupid,” I teased and he laughed.
“By the stars, my feet are killing me,” Roary groaned. Oh no, poor baby. I immediately let go of his neck and moved around him, pulling his shoes and socks off as I knelt down and started working on his feet. “You’ve had a rough day,” I said with a whimper and he nodded.
“Did you do your Charisma thing?” I asked. “Yeah, did you feel it?” he asked. “Nah, I guess I’m immune,” I said with a triumphant smirk and he nodded, smirking back. Ha, sucker. “Okay, this might get weird, but at least your kind are tactile too, right?” I asked. “With our family we are,” he replied as he looked at me, the bond flaring a little sharper between us. “Which we are now, I suppose.”
I nodded and he gestured for me to go Wolf on him, so I let my instincts take over and ran my tongue across the moon on his wrist, absorbing the taste of him and the slightly metallic flavour of that mark. He grunted like he didn’t know what to make of that, but if he thought that was weird, shit was about to take an even weirder turn. I twisted in his lap, leaning in and sniffing his chest, his neck, then nuzzling the side of his face as I tried to brand him with my scent instead of his own.
“Ah, you asshole,” he shoved me back as he laughed and I wrestled him back down to the ground, taking his jumpsuit between my teeth and shaking my head furiously as I tugged on it. Then I ran my tongue right over his face and he spluttered, starting to wrestle with me. Which was exactly what I wanted. Someone cleared their throat and my head snapped up as I found Sin there, his arms folded and his eyes narrowed, but there was a sinister smile on his face that promised trouble too. “Found more rocks,” he said brightly then started throwing them at us with force. “Ow, you piece of shit,” I

“Watch it,” Roary snapped then pulled his own clothes off and shifted into a giant Nemean Lion, his golden shoulder pressing to the black fur of mine. We both snarled down at Sin, but the Incubus just gathered more rocks from the floor and hurled them at us with wild laughter tearing from his throat.
“What’s the matter with you?” I demanded, sweeping a hand through my hair to style it back in place. “Have you lost your final marble?” “You two with your mate marks is what’s the matter with me,” he growled. “I’m gonna cut them off and bury them where you’ll never find them.” He lunged at me, slapping the mark behind my ear then trying to claw at it. I shoved him back several steps as Roary shifted back into his Fae form, yanking on his jumpsuit as he glared at Sin. “You’re insane.”
“You can still share her with us if that’s what’s bothering you, asshole,” I said coolly, glancing at Roary who didn’t seem quite as sure about that, but he didn’t contradict me right then. Possibly because Sin looked like he really was gonna follow through on his murder threats. “Yeah, sure I can. I’m just the gang’s man sized vibrator, right? Good for making you all come, but when you’re satisfied, I’ll get put back in the drawer while you two get to keep her company outside of our fuck fests.” “If she’s meant for you too, the moon will mark you like it has us,” I said but Roary growled,

“You don’t have a secret fucking language!” Roary bellowed. “It’s all in your crazy ass head. You shouldn’t even be in this prison, you should be in an asylum where you can keep company with the voices in your mind.” Hurt flashed through Sin’s expression and a whine left me at seeing how much pain was shining in his eyes. “I’m not crazy,” he hissed. “I’m built different.” He looked vulnerable for a moment, like he’d been called crazy so many times in his life that it had worn him down to the bone. And I couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.
“Sin!” I cried, punching the magical signature reader as if that would do any good. We both wrestled with the mechanism, trying everything we could to get through, but the minutes ticked by and panic started to grip me. “Come on, come on. Just keep holding your breath, you crazy motherfucker.” Roary clawed at the edges of the hatch, trying to find purchase to wrench it open, but it was no good. We couldn’t do it. And there was no way he could have survived this long without oxygen. I backed up to the wall, clawing my fingers through my hair as shock and sadness washed over me in waves. “He

“I’m gonna climb your dick like Mount Everest, buttercup,” he murmured in my ear as Roary led the way out of the elevator and I elbowed him in the ribs. “You try that and G-spot Joe is gonna be dead G-spot Joe,” I warned but he just grinned wider and I couldn’t resist the urge to return it. Fuck, I was relieved he was okay. But dammit, why did I like this idiot so much?
"Never have I ever had the hots for one of the guards," said a girl with pink eyebrows and the words Suck My Glit tattooed along her jaw. She drank and so did a bunch of the others as they started snorting like ponies. "Which one?" Sparkle demanded of her. "Officer Cain," she said with a grin. "Cain's a hardass, I like my asses soft," said a huge guy with colourful knuckle tats that said Suck Horn. "Like Officer Hastings."
Though I wasn't sure how long I could keep using that excuse for. There was something more between us. Something dangerous and alluring which I was afraid might burn me when I finally gave in to it.
was about to turn away from them when I spotted my own number stitched into the lapel and I stepped forward to get a closer look. Cain shot around the desk, rifling through paperwork as I frowned at the jumpsuit and as I reached out to touch it, I was suddenly knocked clean off of my feet. I hit the floor hard, smacking into Roary's legs and cursing in surprise as I found Cain standing where I'd just been, his eyes wild with panic. “What the fuck?” Ethan roared. "Tell me you didn't touch that," he barked, ignoring the way the other three guys were moving towards him like they had every

"It's the jumpsuits," Cain explained, picking up a piece of paper from the desk and holding it out as Sin moved forward to take it. "They're lacing them with rotweed - that stuff sends you batshit crazy in small doses. By the looks of this they're dosing the clothes with enough of it to break a Fae's mind completely within a matter of weeks." "That's why the inmates were suddenly going insane," I breathed in realisation, letting Roary haul me to my feet as I drank in that information.
I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around Sin’s waist, hugging him tightly as I listened to the solid thump of his heart in his chest. "Thank you," I whispered and Sin fell still, his arms slowly closing around me in return as he breathed out slowly. "I won't let them take you, wild girl. You're my fantasy, not theirs."
He was a big fucker and the crazed look in his eyes got a whole lot crazier as he got over the cuts which now lined his flesh from the broken glass and realised he was free. "They took it from me," he said in a deep, slow voice, not moving an inch while his knuckles still remained pressed to the padded wall. His face was pale and his eyes seemed empty of light, like his soul had been carved clean from his body. "Oh nooo," Sin cooed. "You should kill 'em for that, Nige. Kill 'em up good." "Yeah," Nigel said in a husky whisper. "I should kill 'em up real good."
"I can't live this life," Nigel breathed, looking to the five of us as we just stood there watching him. "Thank you for setting me free." He slashed the blade across his throat in a savage swipe that made me suck in a sharp breath at the shock of it. "Shit. We need to heal him," Ethan gasped, moving forward, but Sin threw an arm out with a growl of refusal as Nigel's blood poured from the gaping wound in his throat to cover the ground. "Let him die with dignity," Sin warned, his eyes flashing dangerously around the rest of us like he was challenging any of us to try and step in. "No man should

My wild girl was a clever sausage with sauce on. “She’s a moon doubter!” Sonny shouted, pretending to throw up a bit in his mouth. Or maybe he actually did. I chuckled. Wolves were fun. “Moon doubter, moon doubter, moon doubter!” I started chanting, jumping up and down and more and more of Rosalie’s pack picked up the chant. “It’s not – that’s not what I-” Amira spluttered, and I grinned darkly as Rosalie advanced on her.
Ha, tit shamed bitch.
“They like me,” I said with a bright smile. “They like anyone I tell them to,” she said with a laugh and my smile stuttered out. Oh. “But I’m sure they like you anyway,” she backtracked. “I didn’t mean it like that.” My fingers slid from hers and I let the tide of hands carry me away from her. “Sin!” she cried, like I was Wilson and she was Tom Hanks in Castaway. I frowned back at her, my mood descending as I folded my arms and dropped my head backwards so I slid down to the floor through the throng of bodies, disappearing from sight.
Five and a piece of lint I’d named Clint. I lifted them to my mouth and whispered, “Do you only like me because she told you to as well?” Silence. “Well?!” I roared at the obnoxious rocks and that cocky piece of lint. Nothing. Even Clint didn’t have anything to say. “Fuck you!” I threw them all as hard as I could and took a big guy down who was hanging laundry up on his cell bars. “Why?!” he wailed as he rubbed the places the rocks had hit him, but if he wanted answers he needed to take it up with Clint and his rock band.
“I’m looking,” he snarled. Ethan and Roary started whispering to Rosalie and brushing their hands over her and each other too, sharing smirks and jokes that Cain and I weren’t a part of. I elbowed Officer Grump in the side. “You see it now?” “What?” he grunted dismissively, but his gaze hadn’t left them either and I could see the glimmery green jewels of jealousy in his eyes. “We’re the outsiders. The unmated.” I ground my teeth. “You know what that means, right?” “No,” he said flatly. “But I think you’re going to tell me.” “We’re the disposable ones.” I yanked his face around to look at me.

“Do you think your cousin will let me ride his ass?” I asked hopefully. “Ew, Sin, what the fuck?” She turned to me. “In his Dragon form,” I said with a smirk. “You told me he lets you ride him. I bet you get the best view sitting on his ass.” “Oh,” she burst out laughing. “Of course he will. We can go together.” “Promise?” I snarled like a beast, suddenly grabbing her arm as she went to make the call, forcing her to face me as my heart ticked like a time bomb in my chest. “Do you swear we’ll do things once we get out, you won’t just…leave?” A dangerous energy was rising in me that I’d only

Rosalie’s brows stitched together and she searched my eyes for a moment before moving into my arms and placing a soft kiss on my lips. “I won’t leave you, Sin. Do you really think I would?” “You’ve got your mates.” I shrugged stiffly. “And your family.” “You can be a part of all that…if you want to?”
