KATRINA“Can we go to the garden now? I want to see our flowers,” Aurora said, rolling on the bed, being the first to have changed into her clothes.“One second, baby. Your brothers and sisters are still getting ready.”I got everyone set and put smiles on their faces as I led them out to the garden. On the way, I stopped a maid and asked for some chicken nuggets, along with a bottle of beer for me.Alcohol is the only thing that’s keeping me sane today, and now that it’s evening, I needed another dose.The kids went to the flowers that they loved tendering and were glad to be outside since it was been a while. I took my seat on the wooden chair and was considering crashing into that big wall, breaking it apart, and just running into the forest, a breath of non-stop fresh air.‘Not a bad idea except I can’t break that freaking wall.’‘We’ll climb then.’‘Unless you’ll bring Kane along.’I remembered what Sesan said as I stirred the alcohol in my coffee mug with my fingers. And yes, I’
KATRINA Adrenaline pumped into my veins. I thought I would hit the ground and had prepared myself for the great fall, but rather, I fell into strong powerful arms that held me tight as my dreadful scream was cut short.It took me a second to recover and process that I was no longer falling… and had not crash-landed on the floor but my heart was still severely pounding.I opened my weary eyes and gaped into Ian’s sky-blue ones. To my surprise, he had been looking into my eyes as well—and not other ‘parts’ of my ‘body’—in a kind of mesmerizing way. Just staring at me, and didn’t break out of it until I deliberately blinked.He shook his head and turned away, before falling back on me. “Where were we?”Yeah, where were we? I jumped off him and punched him straight in the face. He wasn’t expecting it, I wasn’t planning it and he was unable to dodge it fast enough before it made some damage. Ian held his face, grimacing while I stepped back, shooting out my claws. “You nearly killed me!
KATRINA I didn’t believe it.On the piece of paper were the same words that brought me back to the Triplets almost four weeks ago. Those words changed everything for me and my children and now…I looked at him with a raised brow as he leisurely got out of the water like he had all the time in the world—like I had all the time in the world. First, it was just his head I sighted but d*mn, but when his trunk came into view, I realized that if I didn’t look away, I’d be wetter than him.His hair was soaked, and water dribbled down from it onto his face and shoulders. Kane’s gaze was tight on me and he had that super sexy smirk on. His chest was exposed and the fair lighting made his abs, pecs, and sparkle like he was a lost star that was looking for its way back to space. He climbed out of the pool and by I could see his white dripping swim shorts, my nipples hardened and my fingers were itching to touch. I was getting out of cont
KATRINAMy words seemed to have taken Kane over the edge and I couldn’t help but grin at the thought of him going rough on me. He freed me and I went on my knees, using one hand to play at the waistband of his soaking-wet shorts and the other to reach in for his d*ck.His subtle groans told me he loved it and I took it to the next level. Pulling his shorts down, I widened my needing eyes when I realized the enormous load I was about to take in.I wouldn’t lie, this passionate event took me to the incident that took place six years ago and though it made me want to step back, pick up my dress and run out of this room, I was too deep in the desire to step back now.He gathered my hair into an untidy ponytail and squeezed the base—a reaction to the little spit I added to his already wet d*ck. I lubricated it, glancing at him as I gave his pride gentle strokes up from the base to the tip. “You’re gonna torture me… aren’t you?”I bit my lip, taking hold of his d*
KANE Vanilla… where was it coming from?I breathed the aroma in and didn’t move an inch, afraid that the wonderful scent would vanish.I realized that my right hand was over someone’s waist and my nose was curled into the same wolf’s neck, taking in its scent. I didn’t think much of it until I opened my eyes and saw a naked Katrina, rolled in the covers like a sausage roll, back to chest, a*s to crotch, calmly sleeping, right next to me.It took me a minute to gather my thoughts and connect them so I could understand why we were in this miraculous position. But d*mn was it a dream come true.‘What happened here? F*ck… my head hurts.’‘Your poor memory isn’t an excuse for forgetting you had s*x with Kat.’The missing dots connected. ‘Oh, sh*t!’ I unfroze, disentangling myself from Katrina, and slipped out of the bed—the hardest thing I’d do all day. With my palms on my face, I stepped back, cursing myself for doing something so stupid. ‘How could this happen?! Katrina’s gonna f*cking
KATRINA“Come on… tell me,” I urged.I’m not sure but I think he felt uncomfortable saying it.“I always thought Cannon would win.”I raised my brows and looked up to meet his eyes that already cautiously gazing into mine. “Really?” I asked, my face reddening due to another explosion from an emotion I couldn’t understand, especially now that he was looking down at me. “he was perfect. Perfect father, perfect Alpha, perfect wolf…” His tone lowered. “Perfect mate.”There was this warm feeling about Kane. I recently realized that it had always been there but now it was in full bloom. This warm feeling made me trust him more than I’d liked to. It was reassuring and I felt safe in his arms, my head buried in his chest and my eyes on his.My instincts never lied but this time it might just be my body reacting the way I wanted to… to what I wanted to be true. “There are no perfect mates, Kane.”I looked away and my fingers went up to his chest, tracing them down the rigid lines of his abs.
KATRINA“What the heck happened here?!” I took a good look into her room, trying to find out how to walk in without stepping into what the whole room had been covered in, before attempting to reach Susanna that was trapped in her ‘homemade’ prison.She struggled to get herself up from the bed but nothing was working. I arrived, pulled some of the stuff off my shoes, and grabbed Susanna’s hands, endeavoring to free her but the bed didn’t release her.“It was an accident…” We groaned as we put in more effort with Susanna trying to make herself lighter—not sure if that’s possible—and me overworking my hands to get her out of this mess. She seemed a bit shocked but by the looks of it, she had been in shock for quite a while. “I must have made a mistake in the recipe.”Finally, with a last tug I pulled her out and we crashed into the tiled floor. Now, it was hard to tell the difference between Susanna and me.A first look at the room and you’d think a bomb of extra sticky cookie dough deto
KATRINA Earlier, I googled the distance of the packhouse from the theatre and as luck would have it, it was just a ten-minute drive. But that wouldn’t save me now because so much damage could be made in those ten minutes.Ian deepened the kisses and I was mesmerized by the bitter-sweet fondness, accepting it wholeheartedly even though in reality, I didn’t want to. I had lost track of time because every instant I thought Ian would let go, it only intensified and intensified, and if that didn’t make me soaking wet, nothing could.It was when his hands, which were once grasping my head on a well-chosen nerve, released—starting to undo his shirt—that I was able to process what was happening around me.But even then, he didn’t stop.“Ian, st…” I managed to say with a huge intake of breath but doubted he heard me.My hands lay on his now naked chest and instantly, he transferred his kisses to my neck, gripping my waist and allowing me to breathe again. “F*ck
