Page 118 of Nest Of Lies

I wrap myself around her, squeezing, and bury my face in her neck.

“You silly, ridiculous woman!” I growl.

“Lia, no one is taking you from us. And we will never leave you,” Mills says, and I think maybe he’s a little choked up.

Ranger sweeps in and kisses her hard. “You idiot. Didn’t I tell you that we were yours?”

“I know, I’m sorry, I panicked.”

She’s stolen from him and pulled into a hard hug from Mills.

Valen approaches slowly, and Mills backs off.

“You scared me.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Lia,” Valen says softly, and his hands cup her cheeks. He drops the softest kiss to her lips. “You are my omega.”

Zaden touches his back, and Valen steps aside, giving way to our alpha.

“I warned you,” Zaden says with a hard glint and grips her throat. “Now, I’m getting our names tattooed on your ass so you know who you belong to.”

Lia gasps, but I can’t help but see the excitement in her eyes. “You’ll give me a tattoo?”

“Ianto will. But it will be our names because this is forever.” His thumb tracks over the bond on her neck. “It wasn’t an accident. I never bite by accident, Aurelia Raines. I bit you because you are part of us, and I wasn’t prepared to lose you.”

Her eyes widen. “You lied?”

Zaden dips his head. “I lied. I bit you. I bonded you on purpose. I was never letting you go.”

To my surprise, Lia throws herself at him, and he lets go of her throat to hug her so tight I’m afraid her bones will crack.

We head into the mansion, and I know there is one thing I want to do before we go any further.

I want my bonds.

Chapter forty-one

Lia

Valen shoves me back,and I fall onto the couch. He follows me down, seizing my lips, and pushing his tongue deep into my mouth.

I lift my arms, but he pushes them back above my head and pins me there.

“Lia,” Valen growls and grabs my top, yanking it off and hurling it away. “No more clothes.”

I snort a laugh. “Yeah, okay.”

My bra, pants, and underwear go next. I try to pull my arms free, but then a very naked Mills is there, smiling and leaning over me.

“Try this.”

I moan but take a bite of the cupcake. It’s delicious.

“That’s the reaction,” Mills murmurs and turns the cupcake upside down and drags it slowly over my body.

Valen growls and steps back, letting Mills move in.
