Lottie quickly stirs as I reach her with Ella. She sits up, her eyes flitting between me and Ella. “Please,” she pleads, looking at her twin sister, “help Emmie. Don’t make her life hell, too.”

Only then do I realize Mom is crouched beside me. She stares at me, and for the first time, regret is in her gaze.

The groom, his face still indifferent, moves to pick up Lottie, clearly intent on continuing the wedding. But as he reaches for her, our mother swoops in, stooping to whisper in Lottie’s ear.

I can’t hear what she’s saying, but I see Lottie’s eyes widen.

Mom’s gaze flicks to me as she stands, and the priest asks Lottie if she’s okay to go on.

“What can I do?” Mom whispers. A spark of hope in her eyes that I haven’t seen in years.

“You can be at the boat at seven-thirty tonight.”

She nods. “I’m sorry for everything. But hopefully, I can save your sister.”

Epilogue Three–Ava

Three years later

I bounce Roman in my arms as I watch Lily showing Atlas how to swim in the pool.

Atlas is just over two years old and has absolutely no fear of anything. Many times, one of my men has had to run around the pool after him. He’s a devil. He removes his floating arm bands and throws himself into the water. From now on, until he can swim unaided, he is wearing a life vest.

Roman’s fingers play with my hair. This one is very tactile. Loves a cuddle, just like it turns out his dad does. Silas has turned into a very caring alpha. He even takes Seb’s feelings into consideration.

Silas had his vasectomy reversed. It turns out it was his wife and not Max who pushed for it.

We didn’t know if it would truly work, but he got me pregnant during my last heat. The heat was unexpected and as Max was away on business. Silas and Seb got me through it. They were the best tag team. It resulted in Roman and now we have two toddler brothers for their big sister, Lily. And boy, she’s the doting but very bossy big sister.

“How are you feeling?” Silas asks, wrapping his muscular arm around my shoulder.

“Hot.”

Yes, I have three children, and my body is preparing to go into a heat again.

He smiles. “At least we're all here for this one.”

“There’ll be no planning who will get me pregnant this time,” I state. “If it happens, it happens.”

“It’s going to be Seb’s. We have a plan.”

I smile. Normally Max and Silas are so alpha when it comes to babies. “Really?”

The smell of arousal fills the air.

It’s day three of my heat and I’m on my knees as Max slips out of my ass, and I feel his hot cum dripping down my thighs.

“Good girl.” Max presses a kiss on my lower spine before I feel the warmth of his body disappear.

“Oh God,” I murmur, getting closer and closer to the end as I stare at Seb, who is gripping my hips as I ride his dick.

“Do you need to come, Omega?” Silas murmurs in my ear, pulling my earlobe into his mouth.

“Oh yes. I’m—”

His large body covers mine from behind. “Do you need to be knotted by your alphas?”

My men never use Seb’s designation against him anymore, and although Seb can’t knot me, he can, and has had hormone injections to give him a good chance of getting me pregnant.
