Page 228 of Juliet & Her Romeos

His thick cock brushes against my hip.

Benedict’s rumbling purr joins mine. He sucks on my lower lip.

Then he pushes into me in a single thrust, slow and deep.

I let out a surprised breath.

Benedict kisses me, beginning to speed up his thrusts. I tangle our hands together.

Ecstasy coils through me.

Benedict is smiling, purring, and happy.

Then he whispers like it’s a secret that he’s scared of saying too loudly, “I love you.”

He’s never said that before.

And just like that I come.

“Bec…” My eyes flutter closed.

I squeeze his hands tightly with mine.

Benedict shudders, pulled over the edge as well. He bites down hard on our bond bite.

White-hot pleasure slams through me.

Except, it’s hislovethat hits me the hardest.

Katerina warned me against pack. She believed that a rose’s thorns could only cause pain, but I know now that they can protect.

Love isn’t an illusion.

It’s real.

The Romeos are everything that I need, and I know that I can be what they need. Together, we’ve faced our fears and we can inspire others to break free in the future.

I won’t be the nova that burns bright and then fades away because now, I’m no longer shining alone.

What else can we change about our world?

I smile, excitedly.

The right pack bonds truly can change everything.
