LOGINKalix froze. In fact, I was pretty sure we all froze. “My wife is pregnant?” “Yes.” Natasha nodded. “With my baby?” “No, the mailman’s.” She snorted, wiping the tears from her eyes. “Who else would it be?” “I’m going to be a father?” A giggle bubbled past her lips. “That’s typically what happe
I recognized the look on Kalix’s face whenever his sister and Shayla were in the same room. The mixture of awe, terror, and bliss was unlike anything I’d ever felt before. We had everything we could’ve ever wanted and would do anything to keep it that away. “Where’s Natasha and Hakeem?” Shayla aske
Nox’s P.O.V. Six Years Later “You no good cheater!” I heard my mate belt from across the backyard. Her father’s boisterous laugh followed, drawing my eyes. The two of them stood in the stand pit off to the side of the pool and were currently hitting a volleyball back and forth. Jada and Brinley w

I stifled my surprise. I’d known she was fast, but it was different up close. Again, I went for her. I feigned left, only to dash to the right. Throwing a punch at the last second, I dampened the amount of strength I put into it, aiming for her abdomen. It would’ve been enough to knock the air from
Jada pulled the crumpled piece of paper from her pocket. “Next we have to find a man who carries the stars on his flesh. What does that even mean?” “It’s talking about a tattoo.” We all turned to look at Hakeem, only to find his attention elsewhere. Through the frosted glass doors, now open to all
Lilac’s P.O.V. “Mind if I have a word with my sister?” Nox’s footsteps traveled throughout the house, until I felt him standing at my back. He grabbed the cloth I’d been using to dry the dishes, and one of the plates I set on the rack and got to work. For once, I didn’t argue. There were a ton of
I wanted—it wanted me to peel his clothes from his body and lick every inch of him, every glorious muscle until his eyes fluttered open and I could see for myself how close he was to coming undone. And even when he spilled, I’d drink him—still starving for more. Then, as if this shit situation I pu
