LOGINSONYA'S POV
The word hangs heavy in the air between us, making my nipples harden against my bra.
"Excuse me?"
Reign sets down his glass and walks toward me, slow and predatory, his presence overwhelming. "I'll pay off Derek's debt and guarantee his protection from the Rogue King. In exchange, you sign a contract agreeing to be mine."
"Yours?" I take a step back, my ass hitting the edge of his desk. "What does that even mean?"
"It means you move into my estate. You act as my mate in public. You fulfill all the duties of a Luna." He's close enough now that I have to cock my head back to look at him, his heat radiating through his suit. "And in private, you belong to me completely."
"That's insane."
"That's the deal."
"You can't just… I'm going to be your stepsister in three months!"
"Which makes it even more interesting, doesn't it?" His hand comes up, tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear. "Besides, we both know you're wasted on Derek. He doesn't see you. Not the way I do."
"You don't even know me."
"Don't I?" His thumb traces my lower lip, pressing just enough to part them, and I hate how my body responds, how my wolf purrs at his touch, my pussy growing slick with arousal. "I know you've been in love with my brother for six years, Sonya. I know you hide it behind smiles and friendship because you're too afraid of rejection. I know you touch yourself at night thinking about him, wishing he'd choose you over girls like Brittany, fingering yourself while moaning his name."
My face flames with humiliation, but the image he paints makes my thighs press together. "You're an asshole."
"And you're aroused." His other hand settles on my hip, pulling me closer until my breasts brush his chest. "I can smell it, little omega. Your body knows what your mind refuses to accept. You don't want Derek. You want someone who sees you. Someone who wants you badly enough to burn the world down for you."
"And that's you?" I try to sound sarcastic, but my voice comes out breathy, my hands fisting in his shirt without thinking.
"That's me." His lips brush my ear, his hot breath making me shiver. "Sign the contract, Sonya. Save Derek. And let me show you what it's like to be properly worshipped."
I should say no right now.
This is crazy. Insane. Wrong in so many ways.
But Derek's face flashes in my mind. The panic in his voice. The way he said he was desperate.
Reign's hand slides down from my hip, cupping my ass through my jeans, squeezing firmly as he grinds his hard cock against my belly.
The thick length of him presses insistently, making my mouth water and my pussy ache. "Feel that? That's what you do to me, little omega."
Before I can protest, he spins me around, bending me over the desk with one strong hand on my back.
My cheek presses into the leather blotter, my ass lifting as he yanks my jeans and panties down to my thighs in one swift motion, exposing my dripping folds to the cool office air.
"Goddess," I gasp, but it turns into a moan when his fingers part my pussy lips, sliding through my slickness to circle my swollen clit.
"So wet for me already," he growls, his free hand palming his cock through his pants as he rubs the head against my ass cheek. He doesn't push inside, just teases, the hot tip dragging along my crack while his fingers plunge into my entrance, two thick digits curling to stroke my inner walls.
I buck against his hand, my wolf howling in my head as pleasure coils tight in my belly.
His thumb presses my clit, rubbing in firm circles while his fingers fuck me shallowly, stretching my pussy without giving me the full thrust I suddenly crave.
The wet sounds of my arousal fill the room, obscene and intoxicating.
“O..oh fuck… R-Reign….”
"That's it, little omega," he murmurs, leaning over me, his chest to my back, breath hot on my neck. "Come for me. Show me how much you need this, need me owning your body like the slut you're going to be."
The words push me over the edge. My pussy clenches around his fingers, gushing slick as I shatter, crying out his name while his cock throbs against my thigh.
He pulls his fingers free with a wet pop, bringing them to my lips. "Taste yourself."
I suck them clean obediently, the tangy flavor of my cum making my cheeks burn hotter.
"How long?" I whisper, still trembling from the orgasm.
"Six months."
"And after that?"
"After that, you're free to go. If you still want to." His smile is dark and confident as he fixes my clothes. "But you won't."
Goddess help me, I'm actually considering this.
"I need time to think."
"You have sixty seconds." He releases me, checking his watch. "After that, the offer expires, and Derek's on his own."
"That's not fair!"
"Life isn't fair, little omega. Now choose."
My hands are shaking. This is blackmail. Manipulation. I should tell him to go to hell.
But I don't, the aftershocks of pleasure still buzzing through me, the promise of more too tempting.
"Fine," I hear myself say. "I'll do it."
Reign's smile is pure victory, and pure sin. "Excellent choice."
SONYA'S POVI'm standing at the cabin's small stove in just a bra and panties, scrambling eggs and trying not to think too hard about the fact that my entire body is sore in the best possible way, when I hear a knock at the door.Reign's still asleep in the bedroom. We didn't exactly prioritize sleep last night, for very obvious reasons, so I grab his shirt off the back of the couch, pull it over my head, run my fingers through my hair, and pad to the door barefoot.I open it.My mom, Bridget, is standing there.And right beside her, looking slightly nervous and a little uncertain, is Selene.Oh goddess.My brain takes a second to catch up with what my eyes are seeing."Hi, sweetheart." Bridget's voice is careful, restrained, in the way it gets when she's working very hard not to cry or say something she'll regret. "Sorry to just… show up. We would've called but I wasn't sure you'd answer, and we needed to do this in person.""I… yeah." I step back, pulling the door open wider. "Come
SONYA'S POVReign doesn't start slow this time. He starts rough, snapping his hips into mine with a force that has the headboard knocking against the wall almost immediately, his grip on my thighs hard enough that I know I'll feel it tomorrow, and I welcome every single bit of it."You feel incredible," he growls, his pace brutal, relentless. "Tight and wet and exactly where you belong. Mine. All mine.""Yours," I gasp. "Fuck. Only yours.""Damn right." He changes angle, and the new position drags against that sensitive spot inside me that makes me see actual stars, my whole body locking up around him. "There it is. Right there, isn't it?""Yes… fuck, yes, right there…"He doesn't let up. He fucks me hard and fast, one hand braced beside my head, the other clutching my hip so tight I can feel his fingers pressing into the bruises he probably already left earlier from the paddle. Every thrust drags a sound out of me I don't recognize as my own voice, ragged and wrecked, every single ne
SONYA'S POVThe vibrator presses against my clit and the sound that tears out of my throat doesn't even feel like mine. It's too much and not enough at the same time, every single nerve in my body lighting up at once, and I'm right back at my breaking point in what feels like seconds, my hips bucking hard against the restraints."Reign…""Color?" he asks, even as he keeps the pressure steady, even as he watches me fall apart with what I can only assume is the smuggest expression on his face right now, not that I can see it."Green. F-fuck. So green. Please, I'm so close, I'm right there…"He pulls it away the second the words leave my mouth."No," I sob, my whole body protesting the loss. "You can't keep doing that to me…""I can. I will. As many times as I want tonight." Something cool drags along my inner thigh, his voice low and amused. "You don't get to come until I say so. I told you that already."He gives me a minute to catch my breath, his hand stroking soothing patterns over
SONYA'S POVI can't see anything, and somehow that makes everything else sharper. The cool air against my bare skin. The soft give of the leather cuffs around my wrists, just tight enough to remind me they're there. The sound of Reign moving around the bed, unhurried, like he's got all night and intends to use every single second of it on me.There's something strange happening in my chest while I lie here waiting. Not fear. The opposite of fear, actually. I keep thinking about Melvanie's facility, about being chained in a cell, about feeling my own body move against my will because some contract demanded it. And then I think about this, about choosing to put my wrists in his hands, about the fact that I could say one word right now and every single thing would stop. The difference is so massive it almost makes me want to cry. Almost. Mostly it just makes me want him more."I want you to understand something first," Reign says, his voice closer now, right above me. "This isn't Melv
REIGN'S POVI take Sonya's hand and lead her down the hallway.The door to the room is heavier than the rest of the cabin, solid wood, no windows. I built it that way on purpose. Soundproofed too, though after this morning's little pack gossip, courtesy of Landon, I'm starting to think soundproofing should've been priority one in the entire cabin.I push the door open and flip the light switch, and Sonya goes still beside me, taking it all in.The bed's bigger than the one in my main bedroom, solid wood frame with restraint points built into the headboard and footboard. There's a padded bench against one wall, a dresser with drawers I know the contents of by heart, and the flogger and paddle hang on a hook by the door, prominently visible, not hidden away like something shameful."Reign," she breathes, her eyes wide. "You built all this?""I had it built. I'm an Alpha, not a carpenter." I shut the door behind us, the click of the lock settling anticipation low and hungry in my chest.
SONYA'S POVThat night, I skip the pack celebration. Everyone's still talking about the trial, about Garrick getting dragged off and about Derek's banishment, but I've had enough of crowds and council halls and people staring at the mark on my neck like it's the most interesting thing in the world.Reign finds me sneaking out the back of the estate while everyone's still drinking and toasting."Going somewhere?" he asks, leaning against the doorframe with that smug grin he gets when he already knows the answer."I need a break from all this. Just for a bit.""Good. I had the same idea." He holds out his hand. "Come on."We walk through the woods in comfortable silence, my fingers laced with his, the noise from the celebration fading behind us until it's just crickets and our footsteps on the dirt path. After everything, the kidnapping, the trial, the chains, the screaming, it's strange how much I needed quiet. Just this. Just him.We end up at the lake.Our lake. The one where he firs
REIGN'S POVThe bullet hits Landon.My beta, my best friend, my brother in everything but blood, he takes the bullet meant for me and goes down hard."Landon!" I roar, catching him before he hits the ground.Blood. So much fucking blood."I'm okay," he gasps, but he's not. The bullet hit him in the
VANESSA'S POVI scream immediately, scrambling away from Hector as wood splinters across the room. Just then, a man steps through the wreckage, tall and dark-haired, with eyes that radiate violence.Everything about him screams danger.Oh goddess.Shit.It's Zane Rivers.What the hell is he doing
SONYA'S POVReign and I are on our way back from the lake when his phone suddenly rings through the car’s speakers."Alpha," Landon's voice fills the car, tense. "We have a situation."Reign's entire demeanor hardens. "What kind of situation?""The kind with blonde hair and a restraining order she'
SONYA'S POVReign's hand moves from my ass to my thigh, then slowly, torturously, between my legs. Even through my panties, the pressure of his fingers makes me moan."So responsive," he praises, circling my clit through the fabric. "So fucking perfect.""Please," I whimper, rocking against his han
