“Who was that man?”

I paused and glanced over my shoulder at Vanya. She sat on the bottom step, knees pulled to her chest with her arms wrapped around her legs, and her chin resting on her knee as she watched me.

“Is he your friend?” she asked.

“No,” I growled as I turned back to my task.

“Oh.”

I sighed. “I don’t have friends, I only have family.”

“You have brothers and sisters?”

“No.” Picking up the dustpan, I walked over to the pile of dirt. “Only the new generations have siblings, except fo

  • Promised to the Panthers   EPILOGUE + EXTENDED EPILOGUE: VANYA

    “Hey, mama.”My eyes snapped up and my lips curled into a smile. I had no idea where he learned that, but I wasn’t going to lie and say that I hated it when he called me that.Dev hovered in the doorway of the kitchen, eyes locked on me. “How are you feeling?”“A little achy,” I told him honestly. He straightened and hurried over to me. Dropping to his knees by my legs, he reached out and placed his hand on my stomach. In return, one of the babies decided to kick. Chuckling, he pushed the shirt up to expose my large stomach. He leaned forward and pressed his lips to the spot. A low purr filled the air, instantly relaxing my muscles. Cupping my stomach with both hands, he pressed another kiss to my skin and then slowly raised his head to look at me. “We have a surprise for you.”“A surprise?” I blinked at him. “Where are your shoes?”I nodded towards the living room. “Come on.”Standing, he gripped my hands to help me up and led me towards the living room. Dropping to his knees

    I hovered in the darkest corner of the room as I stared at them. It was nearing midnight. I had hoped to make it home in time for dinner, but unfortunately I didn’t make it.Vanya was almost halfway through her pregnancy and the house wasn’t finished yet.The foundation had been laid and the walls were up. When I left they had been busy installing the floors.I needed everything to be perfect.It was our new start.The last thing I wanted was for something to upset my mates. Or for Vanya to start stressing. It wouldn’t be good for the babies. A tired sigh fell from my lips, I pulled my shirt over my head and entered the bathroom. I hesitated a moment before gently closing the door behind me.After opening the shower tap, I walked over to the cabinet and removed the knives.Once undressed, I stepped into the shower.My eyes fluttered closed as I tilted my head back under the water. Another sigh fell from my lips.I was tired.But I had a few more things to do before I could crawl int

    “Vanya could do with some new clothes.”Obsidian glanced at me. “She doesn’t need it,” he muttered.I frowned at him. “Her clothes don't fit her anymore.”“She wears our clothes.”I loved it when she stole our clothes to wear, but I didn’t like it when she went out in public without wearing a bra and underwear.“Betsy mentioned she would need maternity wear soon.” My frown deepened. “I think that’s what she calls it.”Obsidian sighed. “She won’t need it.”I stopped and turned to look at him. He took a few more steps forward before he realized I wasn’t next to him anymore.“Obsidian-”“I lied when I told Vanya that the pregnancy would be nine months. The pregnancy isn’t the same as a human pregnancy. It doesn’t matter if the baby is human or like us,” he said softly. “Vanya will reach full term in five months.”I blinked at him.“If my calculations are correct she’s about four, maybe five weeks pregnant.”I took a step closer and gripped the front of his shirt. “You didn’t think it was

    I jerked away with a gasp and stared down at his hand between my legs. “You ripped my pants!”Ezra smirked. “You can change into another pair at your apartment.” Whatever I had been about to say was forgotten when his fingers brushed along my slit.He groaned. “You’re not wearing any underwear.”The colour in my cheeks deepened. “I don’t have a lot that fits me anymore,” I admitted. “Besides, it’s more comfortable to go without.”I felt the sharp tip of a claw brushing against my skin and tensed. “You better not cut me,” I told him. His smirk slipped away and a seriousness that surprised me filled his eyes. “I would never hurt you, Vanya.” My eyes darted over his face. The words hung between us, but we both knew he was referring to Obsidian. Reaching up, I cupped his cheeks and gave him a small smile as I fought the tears threatening to fall. “I know,” I whispered. Ezra leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss to the corner of my lips. “I ruined things, didn’t I?” I shook my hea

    “Ezra.”I frowned, trying my best to ignore him, but a painful jab in my ribs made my eyes snap open.“We’re leaving.”My frown deepened. “Where are you going?” I asked them. The room was still dark, but both of them were already dressed. Vanya was fast asleep next to me. “We talked about it yesterday.” He glared at me. “Were you even listening?”I nodded and carefully turned on my back. Of course, I remembered. Vanya nearly had a panic attack when Devrim told her they would be going to the mainland for some supplies.It had been a few days since we bonded. We had spent almost every night strengthening our bonds. “Make sure she eats something,” Devrim muttered as he leaned over me to kiss Vanya’s forehead. “Do you need anything?”I blinked at Obsidian. “I’m dreaming.”His eyes narrowed. “I’m only asking because Vanya made me.”“Some art supplies,” I told him. “Vanya asked me to paint the nursery walls.”Devrim muttered a curse under his breath. “She mentioned it. I forgot. You jus

    Devrim and Obsidian had talked about things in detail. Obsidian was doing it to make up for the way he had behaved. He figured it would make Vanya feel better.His bond to Devrim had to be kept open so Devrim would know when Obsidian started panicking. He would step in to take Obsidian away so he could calm down, and then it would be my turn to pacify Vanya.It was a good idea, but it wasn’t going according to plan.Vanya didn’t touch him, she pressed a kiss to his chest and settled down with her face pressed to the crook of his neck.Obsidian frowned, but he wrapped his arms around her waist and held her.A soft sigh fell from Vanya’s lips.I settled more comfortably in the chair and rested the book on my knee. I gripped my pencil and started sketching.It was going to be a gift for Vanya. I was planning on drawing her touching him, but I supposed him holding her would mean the same to her.I was so caught up in drawing that I didn’t realize things had escalated until Vanya’s low moa

    He laughed. My hold on the cup tightened as I remembered Obsidian’s reaction. I threatened to cut off his balls and all he did was laugh at me.From what little I know of Obsidian, he probably thought that the threat was a joke. I meant every word, though. He might be able to overpower me, but if

    My eyes darted between Devrim and Obsidian. They stood a few feet away, talking to Reeves and a man he had introduced as Mike Rhatt, a tourist visiting our island for a few days.I didn’t like the man, and by the look of things, neither did they, but we couldn’t make a scene. We couldn’t leave eith

    I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that they knew my mother. And apparently, Obsidian personally knew my father, which didn’t make sense. The only thing I could think of was that we’d been told lies at school. I was snapped out of my troubling thoughts when a hand was placed on my thigh. Swal

    “What was that about?” I questioned him as soon as I was sure that the bathroom was empty.Obsidian flashed his teeth at me. “She was going to touch her.”“You allowed Vanya to hug Betsy a few seconds before,” I pointed out.“It’s not the same,” he muttered.I blinked at him. Not the same? What the
