CHAPTER 62 - BradI knew it was a bad idea the moment we stepped into the maze. There was something different about the way that Amy looked at me. I think it’s fairly impossible to say that I ever would get over her adoring gaze as it caressed my face. However, this was different. The look she gave me was carnal and full of intent.The smell of the flowers faded into the background until all I could smell was Amy. Her long blonde hair ruffled in the breeze, making my gut tighten. Her brown eyes, with the flecks of gold in them, began to shine and I caught just the faintest hint of fang.A good man would have backed away. A better man wouldn’t put himself into these situations in the first place. I, however, was neither good nor better. I was desperate to feel her lips against mine. I longed to have her body writhing beneath me, straddling me, and if I was being totally honest, kneeling before me.It was wrong, I knew it as much as I knew tha

CHAPTER 64  - AmyI wasn’t sure I liked the way Jenny Spark was staring up at me, half fear, half amazement. But it didn’t really matter because Rachel threw herself at both of her parents. It only dawned on me in that moment that her dad’s name was Clark Spark.My lips twitched, and I fought a smile.Anna smiled over at me, but I caught the glimpse of sadness in her eyes.“Are you okay?” I asked her quietly.She nodded and moved closer before saying, “Yeah, I am really happy for her. I just can’t help but wonder what is going on with the Alliance.”It might have been the truth, but something told me that she was hiding the real pain. I had heard stories about her adoptive mother, Susan. Apparently, she was one of the leaders in the order. Supposedly she was dead, but I of all people knew that death wasn’t permanent. According to Henry, the Alliance was chock full of top-notch medi

CHAPTER 66 - AmyHenry unlocked the belt holding my wrists together, and then he flipped me onto my knees. I gasped when I looked up to see Brad’ long cock exposed and dripping with need. I stared at it longingly. His body was a little thinner than Henry’s, who resembled a professional athlete. Brad looked more like a runner, with whipcord strength and tight muscles.Henry pushed my thighs apart and for a moment I thought he was actually going to fuck me. I couldn’t even tell you how much I wanted it. But I felt his hands between my thighs instead of his cock. He rubbed the soft globes of my ass with his big rough hands and I pushed back against him. It felt good, damn good to be touched by him.Brad continued to stroke his cock, his eyes never once leaving my body. He moved closer and took one of my dangling breasts into his hands. The hard pinch to my nipple caused my pussy to clench.“Fuck, she likes that,” Henry said in

CHAPTER 68 - BradI found myself staring at her, unable to think, unable to breathe. She and Veti were whispering on the couch. It made me wonder what they were talking about. Whatever it was, Amy had a beautiful flush staining her cheeks.It reminded me of the night before when she was in my arms.Henry and I had to come to an agreement earlier. Neither one of us could deny the pull that she has on us. I can’t say that I was thrilled with the arrangement. But there was something right about the three of us last night, something that resonated inside of me.I love Amy. I could admit it, maybe not openly—yet. But I have known that she has been the one for me in my heart far longer than my mind would be willing to admit.There is no way that I will allow the Alliance to come anywhere near her. I have spent the last twenty years protecting her.After the meeting ended, Veti asked to speak with Amy alone so Henry and I went out int

CHAPTER 70 – AmyThe palace guards were able to get the intruders taken into custody. But there was no sign of Margaret or Malcolm in the mix. We also were unable to figure out where they entered the palace.Just as Brad had spirited me away in the passage in the wall, there were literally dozens of other hidey holes and secret tunnels that they could have entered.When Henry made it back to us, he insisted that I leave the castle and once again go back into hiding.  You can imagine my response.“There is no way in hell that I am going back to live in a hole in the ground!”Veti raised a brow and said dryly, “Come now, it wasn’t as bad as all that.”I rounded on her with fire in my eyes. “I can’t believe that you are in on this! I thought of all people, you would support me.”Veti looked wounded. “Amy,” she implored.But I was not in the mood to listen.
