Chapter 0198
"Don't get too close... You don't know where it's been." I shrugged before turning to walk towards my room. Although, never had the walk from the ground floor to the alpha floor felt like such a chore. I just wanted my bed, my mate's and to wake up to find this had all been a bad dream. "Charlotte..." I heard Connie squeal as I pushed the door open and slipped inside, no longer caring for her, or her desperation.
"Are you seriously going to leave them out there with her?" Sage asked, her voice filled with jealousy.
"If Connie wants to make a pass at our mates- then let her go for it! I trust them." I admitted because they had never, ever given me reason not to trust them... unlike me and my mistakes. Mistakes I would regret forever. "And what about.."
"If she wants to try her luck with... Chase... who am I to stop her? Or him?" I finished Sage's sentence.
"You were going to say your brother." Sage remarked, her voice filled with excitement.noveldrama
"I was. But it feels..."
"Strange?" she questioned, finishing my sentence this time, but I shook my head, because she was wrong, for once.
"No, the opposite, like it's right, but I am not sure that I am ready to process that just yet. It doesn't feel right celebrating the gift of family when my own little unit is at threat."
"Connie is dealt with." I heard Kane announce as the door flung open. Turning to face the three large males who walked through the door, I smiled, wondering how I got so lucky. "Chase.." I asked as I narrowed my eyes on the blonde god-like creature.
"Yes, Quennie." He replied, walking into my room and flopping down on the bed like it was his.
"I thought you didn't like to hurt women?" I asked, remembering Adam's words yesterday.
"THAT.." He asked, pointing to the door. "Was a girl?" He grinned, offering me a lopsided smile that I had no doubt had broken many hearts. "So what movie are we watching, guys?" He grinned sprawling out on the bed and

placing his hands behind his head.
"Well actually, we wanted some alone time..." Kane sighed. "I know you want to spend time with her, and you can, of course, but it's been a long morning, and we need to make some hard decisions." "Plus, I am about to bend your sister over that bed and fuck her until she forgets her name." Knox shrugged, deadly seriously. "Not sure if that's the kinda movie you want to watch?" "KNOX!" I roared, looking at my mate in outrage.
"Nope." He grunted, jumping off the bed and landing on his feet with the grace of a cat. Walking over to me, e his arms snaked around my waist, pulling me to him in an embrace had only ever got from Knox and Kane. I felt the instant tears well in my eyes from the sudden need to hide in his arms forever.
"I always wanted a sister! Just so you know." He beamed down at me, his lips pressing to my forehead with such affection that my heart melted and broke all at the same time.
"UGH!" Knox groaned from behind me and I could sense through our bond that he, like me, was torn between emotions... He wanted to do as he had promised, but he wanted me to be happy more... Which is why I loved him.
"I would say any notion of bending her over needs to be put on hold." Kane announced with a belly laugh. I heard him flop on the bed and grinned up into the eyes of the brother, I couldn't believe I was lucky enough to have.
"No shit!" Knox laughed as he
stepped closer, his hands tilting my head towards him to kiss my blonde hair. "Raincheck baby...cakes." He whispered, Astaroth's words clearly sticking in his mind. "We can watch a movie, but I am picking!" He demanded with a playful wink because we both knew he would let me pick... they all would.
