“We’re good,” I reply between clenched teeth.

August studies me. “You took it easy on me, considering I took your mate’s virginity.”

“Motherfucker,” Rave snarls when not even he can hold me back anymore. He calls on his shadows, which lift me in the air, restraining me.

“I’m going to fucking kill you!”

He took her virginity.

So, up until only recently, she was a virgin.

She couldn’t have waited a little longer for me?

I want todestroyhim.

How fucking dare he take something so sacred from me.

“Why did you tell him that?” Astrid asks, using her magic to create a shield around him. “Do you have a death wish?”

“Better to get it all out in the open,” August replies, stretching his neck from side to side. His nose is still red with blood. “I only want to do this once with him.”

“Soren, he didn’t know,” Pandora says, lifting her face to stare at me, dangling in the air like a raging idiot. “You can’t be angry at him.”

“I can, and I fucking will,” I grind out, contemplating using my magic to get Rave to release me so I can kill the only male to be inside my mate.

Closing my eyes, I try to get control of myself.

I know I’m being a hypocrite.

I’ve slept with many females.

A hell of a lot.

But I’ve only kissed one other, and that was the woman I lost my virginity to. And when I kissed her and realized how personal it felt, I didn’t do it with anyone else.

I was saving that for my mate.

And I’ve never tasted a pussy.

I was saving that for her too.

What did she save for me?

Salem has had her pussy on his mouth, and no way she hasn’t kissed August. He seems like a kissing kind of guy.

“I’m glad you came to see us. It’s been a while,” Astrid says to August, casually starting a conversation like I’m not in the air above them.

August once wanted Astrid, so I don’t know why Rave won’t just let me kill him. “Remember when he wanted your mate, Rave?”

Rave’s eyes flicker with shadows. “Don’t fucking remind me.”

“Well, let me down, and I’ll get revenge for both of us.” I grin, and I probably look unhinged.

Because that’s exactly how I feel.

“Your brothers and Bane want you to come to Chaos tomorrow,” August tells her, completely ignoring me.

“And Zython?” she asks, biting her bottom lip.
