Helen’s POV“I’m not worried about the Huntsman coming back,” I admitted, guilt beating at my chest. I” keep having dreams about having sex with him.”My voice had dropped to a whisper, and shame filled me to the core of my being.“Like he’s raping you?” Justin growled.“Worse,” I admitted. I felt sick to my stomach.“I feel horrible about the nightmares,” I said. “Because in the dreams, I like having sex with the Huntsman. I want him to fuck me. It’s like when I was under the spell, Martin cast over me. Somehow I feel like the spell is still there in my sleep, and I don’t want those feelings.”“I want the images of us in bed together to go away. Every time I wake up, I feel like I’m going to vomit. Can you understand why I didn’t really want to admit that to you?”“Justin, the last thing I want you to think is that I desire the Huntsman in any way. He abused me. He locked me up, and he raped me. He put me under a spell and took advantage of everything I had. I just . . . I don’t want

Russo POVI got a set of frantic texts from Lisa telling me that we had to meet right away and that something desperately important had come up. After everything that had gone on in the last two years, her desperation made it hard to breathe.In my mind, I knew that Martin and the Huntsman were both dead, but getting that fear to relax was proving difficult. Every time I heard something out of place at night and every time somebody said they had news, my mind immediately assumed they meant something bad.I watched my own kind slaughtered and then watched the Huntsman trying to route the witches and wizards. I’d seen the aftermath of what he’d done to the lycans and what he was trying to do with the werewolves.Needless to say, after all that unpleasantness, it was hard to imagine that things would just continue to be as good as they were. I was blissfully happy with Lisa. The two of us were planning a wedding over the summer. We were thinking August but early so that all of the flower

Justin POVI tapped my fingers on the polished wood of my desk, trying to sort my thoughts. Randy had gone back to his own office on a phone call with one of our new business partners, somebody in a pack halfway across the continent. But thanks to the internet, we would be doing business with them.For the last two months, Randy and I had been trying to piece back together my father’s kingdom. He spent so much time with the infighting that he’d neglected any other duties that a king should do. Then as everything fell apart thanks to him and the Huntsman and everything, what he’d left behind for me to rule was a total disaster.Randy and I had tried to piece back together what we could in the heat of conflict. And while everybody was happy enough to be part of the True Mates pack, it wasn’t running the way that I wanted it to. Our pack wasn’t the sort of legacy that I would want to leave to my future children, children whom Helen and I were still working hard to conceive.I’d had no id

Justin’s POVHelen took one open-mouthed look at my magnificent erection and burst into giggles. “Oh! It’s that kind of game.” Then she blushed. “All right. I guess that will take my mind off of things.”I saw her panties drop to the floor from underneath her skirt. Fluffing the fabric out, she straddled my lap so that my cock sat folded in between the soft lips down below. She kissed me deeply.“I like this game. Now, boss, what should I do for you?”“Well,” I chuckled, nibbling her ear, “there’s nothing a boss like so much as being made to feel that he’s powerful. What can you do to me to make me feel like a man?”“How about this?” she whispered in my ear.With that, she started to rub her hips back and forth across my legs. My member jumped excitedly, ready whenever she was to just slip inside and begin the real thrusting.I lifted Helen’s blouse and pulled the cup of her bra to the side, taking her in my mouth. I suckled at her nipple, running my tongue around and across the firm

Justin’s POV“I’ve already talked to Lisa about getting pregnant,” Helen said. “She doesn’t think there should be any adverse effects from the Huntsman. Even after finding the witches and wizards who are more powerful than her, none of them have ever heard of this specific situation, but none of them could think of any reason why the baby wouldn’t be okay. I think we need to trust Lisa’s opinion and the opinions of those that she respects.”“Still, I want this whole pregnancy monitored,” I said, “start to finish. Let’s not take any chances.”I ran my hand across Helen’s cheek, cupping her face lovingly. “I don’t want to take any chances with your health either. Pregnancy can be hard on the mother. I want to make sure that you’re getting what you need so that you stay healthy. I want you to fully enjoy having a child when the time comes. I don’t want you drained and exhausted, or worse.”She put her hand over the top of mine, snuggling her cheek against my palm. “Thank you for worrying
