Lexi’s pov“Stop Lenny, you're frightening me,” I muttered as my back hit the wall.Glancing over to where Nolan lay I prayed he was alright as Lenny’s long fingers wrapped around my neck. Looking at him I pleaded with him to stop with my eyes.“I'm not yours, Lenny. You are just very lonely and confused,” I asserted as his fingers tightened briefly as he shook his head in irritation.My door flew open and Nathan strolled in asking what all the banging was about. The vampire yanked me behind himself and hissed aggressively at the new threat.Reaching out to grab his upper arm he glanced at me and I told him to run.“Go hide, please, Lenny. I don't want you to be killed,” I begged him.He glanced at me with sad eyes then quickly rushed off into my bedroom while Nathan chased after him.“Nolan are you okay,” I asked, and hearing him groan I hurried to his side.“I'm fine, how are you,” I muttered to him while cupping his cheek. He looked up at me and said, “Your neck is bleeding. Did

Lexi’s pov“Lexi, meet Ríoghán Crinan, the king of the European vampires,” Johnathan announced and I quickly curtsied, causing the king to chuckle.“I can see why Lennox was enthralled by you, lass. You're a unique creature. Now please give me my son's heart,” he demanded with his outstretched hand and I shook my head.“He asked me to keep it with me. It was his last wish on this earth,” I asserted boldly and watched his blue eyes narrow.When he tried to compel me I grinned and shook my head.“It won't work on me, Your Highness, so if that is all I will excuse myself and retire to my bedroom. Oh Johnathan, did Jessica take Kieran with her,” I asked. When he nodded I grinned and prepared to exit.Just as I was about to open the door the man in sunglasses stepped in front of it. I heard the vampire king offer Johnathan twenty million dollars for the purchase of me, I assumed and I growled sourly.The audacity of him pissed me off.Turning around in the room I squeezed the stone in my

Lexi’s povWalking beside Nathan my legs felt weak and my hands were starting to shake.“Are you going to be alright,” he asked me in concern.Side-eyeing him I opened my mouth to respond but only a gasp of air came out so I closed my mouth and nodded.“I have to do this for Kieran,” I finally growled out.“I am going in with you, so don't fret, Lexi. I don't want him fucking you either,” he snarled causing me to grin slightly.“Thanks for that," I told him with a snort.We arrived at the door and Nathan knocked firmly.The door opened and Ríoghán answered looking at both of us with a snide smile.“Please come in, both of you,” he said kindly, making me eye Nathan suspiciously.“I feel that you both misunderstood what I was implying," he added as he glanced back at us both.Nathan squeezed my hand as we followed him into the sitting room.Ríoghán offered us a drink and I declined as well as Nathan.With all of us sitting in the room the king clapped his hands together and chuckled sli

Lexi’s pov“Do we need to attend dinner,” I asked Nathan.Hearing his chuckle I assumed that meant a yes as I rummaged through my pile of clothes.Feeling Nolan's eyes on me I looked up to see him pointing at a cream-colored dress and tilted my head.“You would look stunning in it and since you're staying the night with me tonight I can help you remove it,” he grinned. Looking over at Nathan I raised my brow.“Weren't we going to discuss our son?”Nathan nodded and said,” We are but someone wants to impregnate you.”Snorting, I rolled my eyes.“It should happen spontaneously, Nolan,” I muttered sourly.“Oh, it will be slow and subtle. I will seduce you and have you begging me to slide my big cock into your damp hole,” he growled huskily.Glaring at him with a curl of my lip I laughed.“That sounds horrendous, Nolan. Can't we just make sweet love,” I asked him with a raised brow.“Well as much time as you have been spending with Nathan I figured that you enjoyed a rough tumble in the s

Lexi’s povRunning up the stairs I felt my heart racing as I hurried to my bedroom.When I entered Nolan was rocking his nephew in the rocking chair and lifted his hand for the bottle.“I saw Nathan in the kitchen,” I mumbled softly and he nodded.“He woke up again and came out cursing me, just like old times,” he sighed.Shaking my head I lowered my eyes from his and slumped my shoulders.“When I get finished feeding the pup I will go through the library and see if I can find some information on how to revert a vampire compulsion. I can't stand to see you looking so distraught,” he huffed and I grinned.“It can wait until morning Nolan, but thank you for offering your assistance,” I expressed and he smiled and nodded.Oh, by the way, you're going to be a daddy too,” I added and he gave me a heart-stopping smile.“Good thing I'm practicing then huh?”I went to his side and opened my arms to take Kieran from him.“Let me finish feeding him so you can go to bed, I haven't spent much tim
