Maya leaned back, watching us all. “You see? Peace is possible. I should win an award for this dinner.”

  • OFF LIMITS: HIS BEST FRIEND'S MOTHER    CASSANDRA'S CONFESSION

    Olivia’s POVI shifted slightly in bed as Xander's body enveloped me from behind. After our rendezvous a few minutes ago, I needed all the rest I could have. My butthole was burning a bit with every move but it was a good kinda hurt. After some time, the heat left me and I felt Xander shift upwards. Nothing thinking much about it, I wanted to drift to sleep when a sharp inhale woke me up.Jerking up because of the sound, I winced a little as my butthole puckered at the movement. Looking at Xander, his eyes were wide like he'd seen a ghost, his face illuminated by the bright light in the otherwise darkroom.My heart rammed in the chest as I saw that look on his face. “Babe? What’s wrong?” I mumbled, rubbing my eyes as I move closer to him a bit. He didn’t say anything at first, just handed me the phone with a stunned look. “You gotta see this, Liv. It’s… Cassandra.”My mouth soured at the name, worst nightmare confirmed. God, what was she up to now, what lies have she spewed again.

She was warm against my own cold body. “Guys, this is my wife, Olivia. Liv, meet the team—Eriksson, our fearless captain; Jax, the human wrecking ball on defense; Aiden, who fed me that beauty of a pass today; and the rest of these fucking lunatics.”Olivia smiled, a little shy at being introduced to a lot of people but she puffed her chest out. “Hi. You all played incredibly today. I’m so proud of Xander and honestly, the whole team.”Eriksson shook her hand firmly with respect. “The pleasure is all ours. Haye’s been grinding hard in practice. That hat trick wasn’t just luck.”Jax leaned
