Lottie POV "No, thank you!" I laughed, resting my head on Knox.'s arm as I leaned into him; I could feel him vibrating with rage and sighed because I wasn't sure who it was aimed at: my father or Adam but either way, I didn't like feeling his anger boil, not after last night explosion. "It will make you feel better when you hear what he has to say," Adam explained, nudging the blade to me. "Offer her that blade again, and I will slit your fucking throat with it, Adam, and let Havoc fuck your corpse. Am I clear?" Knox snarled, answering my question. I opened my mouth to speak, but Knox's hand on my hip tightened in warning. "You know she's a natural with a blade. Right?" Liam scoffed from where he sat, leaning up the side of the desk. Adams's lips pulled into a grin; I knew he wasn't insulted, more amused. "I am not!" I responded, rolling my eyes as I looked around at the room, my eyes taking in the chaos that had clearly taken place in here. Mike looked like death, I was genuinl

Kane POV The wave of satisfaction that swept through me, seeing the look of confusion on Anthonys' face, was worth breaking my silence. Charlotte was seemingly right, though; they, too, thought I was dead. "Fuck it, they won't be leaving this room anyway!" Rolo barked out, his voice bitter and riddled with jealousy. I got it, though; I wasn't sure how to feel about the relationship Charlotte had formed with the Sparrow brothers. "I know how we feel about it!" Rolo grunted, my eyes rolling internally at him as he let out a huff and slid to the back of my mind to observe like the love-sick pup he was. "What do you wanna do, brother?" Knox asked, turning to face me, although I could see from the way Charlotte squirmed his hand remained tightly wrapped around her. I watched her look up at Knox, those big blue eyes I bloody adored glossed over as she plunged into conversation with Sage. "She needs to leave! The brothers won't respect us if we allow her to dictate shit to us, and yo

Lottie POV"So, what's the deal with you and Knox?" I asked, side-eyeing my new companion more than a little curiously. I didn't know much about what my mates had been up to while they were away. Perhaps I should ask them, but I had a feeling I would get the unedited version from Chase. "Caught that, huh?" Chase asked, holding the door open to my bedroom. We had walked up here silently while I had stewed over the last twenty minutes. Deciding I would have to trust my mates and their reasons for asking me to leave, I let go of the anger and decided to make the most of the time with Chase. "Well, subtly isn't exactly your forte, darling!" I laughed, his eye row lifting at the name I had bestowed on him. "Get cleaned up, and maybe I will tell ya... Darling." Chase winked in a way that I am sure many women would find sexy. Me, not so much!"Dick!" I groaned, ducking under his arm and heading to the bathroom to brush my teeth. I may not be able to do much about my clothing, but I could

Mike POV "No." I muttered through a bruised and cut lip, hearing the voice of the demon from the hallway. "Don't listen to him." I tried to say, but even I could hear how mumbled and broken it sounded. I attempted to open my eyes but struggled and knew instantly the blonde-haired fucker had swollen my lids closed. "How did you get in here?" One of the Alphas asked; I suspected it was the one I had watched beat Anthony almost to a pulp. "Does it matter? I can help," The demon replied. I could hear the smile in his voice even if I couldn't see it. "You have helped enough!" Kane's voice cut through the air, anger crackling off his tone like thunder off a cliff top. Without my eyesight, my other senses had heightened, and I could smell the death and corruption infecting the air from the demonic presence in the room. How had I not noticed that earlier? "Hear me, Kane Maddox, if I wanted you or your brother dead, you would be. I simply wanted some pre-show entertainment. So if you d

Kane POVIt all happened in slow motion; the idea of sharing Charlotte with that demonic filth and the way he had spewed his poison had been too much for Knox, and before I could reach out to him, he had lunged. His eyes glowed with the redness of Havoc. I had felt the anger detonate inside him at the idea of this creep getting his hands on our girl, so I understood why he had lost his composure and attempted an attack on the creature from the pits of hell itself... "She is mine." Knox roared as he launched himself at the demon, his muscles rippling with power as he sought to avenge the torment it had inflicted upon his mind not twenty-four hours ago and our mate."I never said she wasn't! I just said I wanted a bit of her!" The demon I knew as Astaroth laughed, adding fuel to the fire within Knox. My breath caught in my throat as I witnessed the breathtaking spectacle unfolding before me. My twin's figure, once human, now twisted and contorted as his body gave way to the primal powe
