“Denka, I told you from the first day I was aware of his intentions, and they didn’t bother me.”

Turning, she looked at her mate. “You! How?”

He picked up a chip and popped it in his mouth. “It’s so strange, it’s like I know you or something?”

Meryn felt a level of arousal she had never experienced before. The layers of machinations that went into this had things tightening in her lower body. Who knew she had a power kink?

Aiden was smiling in satisfaction, until he sniffed the air. Instantly his eyes went black, and she shivered.

“If you will excuse us for a bit?” she said, walking backward toward their rooms.

Aiden stood and even from where she stood his shirt looked a bit tighter.

“Get it girl!” Zadie hollered.

Izzy, Zoe, Brie and Cas were all high-fiving one another.

She squeaked when Aiden lunged. Laughing she ran for their room. No matter what the future held for them, as long as she had Aiden and her family, anything was possible.
