Kane POV"I'd rather fuck you!" I mused, watching her walk away, her blue silky dress clinging to every curve of her pert little ass. Smirking to myself, instantly, knowing that she would be mine. And my brother, and whoever the fuck that other male was, would soon learn that Kane does not share well with others.I admit, it had been years since I'd seen Charlotte; she had grown up, no longer the pimple-faced brat who whined at every turn. Or argued at every move we made to keep her safe! Instead, in her place, a beautiful, strong, clearly gorgeous, but still moody female that had just decided was mine. My lip twisted into a smile, watching her walk over to Lilly. Clearly, they were still close, which made it easier for me to spend time with her. I made a mental note to speak to Lily and find out what I had missed where Charlotte was concerned."Brother, having fun!" I grinned, feeling him come to stand beside me."You know me!" He shrugged, and I knew without turning to look at him
Lottie POV "Is this fucker for real!" I snapped at Sage, who was ignoring me to make sappy eyes at Kane. "Goddess, give me strength!" I grumbled, looking at Kane with perplexity. "You know I am not twelve anymore, right?" I sighed at Kane with exasperation, holding my hand out. "Can I have my phone back, please!" "No!" He grumbled, his face tightening uncomfortably. "Come stand with your family, let people see you, Charlotte, instead of hiding back here." "I wasn't hiding!" I barked, crossing my arms and rolling my eyes. "Texting your 'boyfriend' then!" He sarcastically muttered. I narrowed my eyes at him, overcome with an unfamiliar emotion I didn't want to acknowledge. "Kane!" I started to say, stepping into him and ignoring the hand that he held out to me. "Let me, and you get something straight right now." The way his eyes blackened and the air around us became thin told me I was playing a dangerous game with this alpha male. "The days where you and Knox boss me around,
Lottie POV:I knew what Sage was going say before the words left her sex-addicted lips."Because he is..""If you say hot! Or fit! I swear to the goddess I will skin you and wear you as a damn coat to his wedding!" I snapped at Sage, who simmered down with a chuckle. He was the reason I had been so sheltered my whole childhood. Now he was back for less the 24 hours and was already slipping back into old habits and becoming a pain in my fucking ass!Taking the opportunity to disappear and sneak out of the hall, I quickly made my way from the old church grounds and
Lottie POV"Is that SO!" Kane asked darkly; I could hear the smirk in his tone before the harsh swat landed on my ass, making me yelp for more, his hands tightening on my wrists, reminding me he was in control. The familiar sting began to cover the skin of my bottom; I pulled myself to lie fully across his lap, leaning my head and shoulders over where he had perched on the stool, allowing him to completely dominate this experience. "Yes!" I barked while his hand rubbed the spot he had just abused, wiggling my ass into his hold, beseeching him for more without saying it."But I will behave for the next ten minutes if you continue." I bartered his laughter, filling the large kitchen."The rest of the damn day!" He countered, making me groan. "Or I stop!" He warned, removing his hand. Instantly, I felt lost without its presence, so I reluctantly nodded, surrendering. "Use your words, Lottie!" His hand still absent. "Yes, fine!" I whispered. "For the rest of the day!" I promised, and i
Knox POV "Have you seen Lottie?" I asked Lilly, who was cuddling into her mate, her head nuzzling under his neck all cute and shit. "Oh, Hi Lilly. Congratulations on your mating ceremony! I am so pleased for you!" Lilly grumbled, lifting her chin to look at her mate, amusement flashing in his eyes as he looked down at her. "Yeah, yeah! Charlotte?" I repeated, growing increasingly irritated with each passing second. I had searched the whole damn church and hall for her, TWICE! I had even stormed into the bathroom and checked each bloody cubicle, much to some chick's anger. She was nowhere to be seen! And neither was Kane! Causing the green-eyed beast to ripple through my body. "Do you think I look pretty?" Lilly asked, pulling from her mate's arms to twirl in front of me, her long white dress floating around her feet. Rolling my eyes, I nodded, knowing my vain sister needed the reassurance. "Yep! You know who else looked pretty! Lottie! Where is she, Lilly?" I asked with a deep
Lottie POV"Hey, Conny!" I smile politely before lowering my hand from Knox's shoulder. Knox wasted no time taking my hand in his to bring it to his lips for the gentlest of kisses, reminding me of a knight in a fairy tale, but Knox was no knight, and this was no fairy tale! "Hey Char! You look so pretty!" Conny offered with a condescending smile that told me she thought I looked anything but pretty! She always was a bitch who had a way of messing with people's heads. She wanted to be top dog; she hated that Lilly- The alpha's daughter and I were such close friends! She hated the relationship I had with her family, feeling she deserved to be treated the same. But I wasn't just Lilly's friend; I was The Beta's daughter! Even if he forgot I existed half the time, that still gave me a bit of clout within the pack. "Thanks!" I smiled, deciding today wasn't the day to rise to her shit! Knox, sensing my tension, gave my fingers a gentle squeeze, tugging my attention away from Conny and h
Kane POVSitting back in my chair, my eyes met Lilly's as she sat smugly on the top table with her mate and our parents. I wanted to be annoyed that she had challenged me, but I was proud of the woman she was becoming, her mate obviously bringing out the strength in her that she would need to be a Luna to his people. If he was okay with her wearing the trousers in their relationship, then good luck to him! There was no judgement from me. One man's meat is another man's poison, or so they say! But one thing Charlotte would need to realise was that I was not accustomed to not getting my way, to being challenged, especially in public. And if she wanted to play this game, I would teach her a lesson that she would not soon forget. "She's so pathetic, Boo! Don't you think?" Conny giggled, her pet name for me getting my back up, almost as much as her long fingers snaking around my biceps; I could feel her fake nails digging into my flesh, no doubt in a bid to get my attention. "Why is tha
Kane POVPerhaps I was being rather cruel; some would say I had set Conny up simply to watch her fall. But if the shoe was on the other foot and Conny had the power to do this to Charlotte, I had no doubt she would have enjoyed watching her take the bait only to humiliate her. So, I had absolutely no issue with teaching Conny here a lesson or two! "So what will my reward be?" She whispered breathlessly. I grinned sadistically, my free hand lifting with lightning speed to wrap in her long chestnut hair, yanking it back over the edge of her chair, seeing the muscles in her neck strain from the force I had used. I leaned forward so my breath ran hot along her neck and up to her ear."Not so rough!" She wailed, her fake nails digging into my flesh, the pain only making me want to hurt her more."I will reward you by not cutting your spiteful tongue from your mouth and sparing your worthless life!" I explained through mind-link, a grin popping up on my lips as her eyes darted to the side
