“It makes them forget.”

I rotate slowly toward him, grabbing my jeans and sliding them on. “Forget?”

“Everything. Before, after, during. Everything.”

I stare at him, but Kaleb’s attention is drawn to the door where a vision of auburn curls and eyes the color of the forest at dusk stops everything in the room. Even Alonzo’s pathetic whimpers.

There’s a drug I could use.

“Oh, God. Again?” She glares at Mana, stalking forward and completely ignores the fact she and her drowned rat of a drugged-up sister are the only ones clothed within a sea of naked, predatory men.

And every single one of us want her. I scent their need in the air, even my own. Kaleb, drooling like that dog he mentioned. Mana. Especially Mana. His cock rises unashamedly as she approaches. “I can go again,” he offers softly, and for the first time since I noticed him, he looks interested. Far more than when he shoved his horse cock down her sister’s throat. “I can make it good.” He reaches out, almost tenderly, to touch her face.

Like a professional boxer, Addi ducks and weaves, managing to avoid Mana’s touch and extricate her sister with no small display of skill. She doesn’t lose her footing once, and her glare fixed on Mana never wavers.Girl’s got balls.I like that. Another thing I know about myself.

“Not for all the demons in hell, Mana. Keep your dick toyourself.” She smiles sweetly through her snark and drags her sister away, muttering in an undertone. Addi pauses at the open doorway, and looks back. “And keep your drugs out of her too, you freak. If she wants to fuck, at least let her remember the experience, if she chooses. And if she doesn’t…” The woodland sprite of a perfect spirit flicks her fingers between her eyes and Mana.

Without another word she leaves us all staring after the pair of them, the slut and the princess, and a different sound fills the room in their absence. Mana’s laughter, akin to shattered glass shredding newborn flesh. After a moment, Kaleb reluctantly joins in, then me.

How much more fucked up can any of us be?

The funny thing is, we haven’t even started.

Chapter Five

The Little Green Monster

Adreana

I hate that I once again must be the person to fish my stupid sister out of the bowels of this decrepit building. What I hate even more is the fact that I have to watch Mana face-fuck her before I intervene. Jealousy thrums through me, and I feel dirty.

I can’t stand the fucking man, but in this moment, I wish I were the one kneeling before him. Yes, I know that is insane but the libido wants what the libido wants. Also, I have never seen a cock like that in my life, not even in my late-night forays surfing porn sites. My mind spins with thoughts of being stuffed with the intimidating member and I have to press my thighs together to stave off my arousal.

“I can go again,” Mana says softly, his dark eyes burning into me as he reaches out to touch my face.

I dodge him, not wanting his touch after seeing him defile my sister. How many others have there been tonight? He doesn’t seem like a one-woman man.

“I can make it good,” he tries to tempt me.

I watch the girth hanging between his thighs kick to life, straining in my direction. Dear God, I’m sure that monster cock would rip me in two. The thing that bothers me is I can’t decide if I would more likely beg for mercy … or for more. My brain hurts every time I think about Mana, and the thin line between lust and hate I walk when it comes to him.

“Not for all the demons in hell, Mana. Keep your dick to yourself.” I smile sweetly even though my tone is anything but. I pause at the open doorway and give him a dirty look. “And keep your drugs out of her too, you freak. If she wants to fuck, at leastlet her remember. And if she doesn’t…” I want to threaten him, but I know anything I throw at him will fall on deaf ears. Instead, I flick my fingers between my eyes and Mana.

The message is clear:I’ll be watching.

Without another word I wrap my arm around my sister’s middle and walk us both out of there. The sound of Mana’s dark laughter follows us before the others join in.

It’s the third time I have had to retrieve my sister like some lost puppy. Tomorrow, she won’t have a single recollection of the entire event and she will fawn endlessly about Mana. I know she believes if she can only get him to fuck her, she can lay a claim to one of the most powerful and feared men in Oregon.

I know better.

Mana simply sees her as another hole to fill. Or another hole to shove his drool-worthy monster cock into. I have yet to walk in on him actually fucking her. I wonder if that is because he isn’t interested, like Kaleb, or if I just catch them before he can get to the main event every time. The man surely has the stamina to go for another round if what I saw earlier was any indication.

Stuffing my stoned sister into the back seat of my little metallic blue Honda Civic, I drive home, taking my time. My thoughts are muddled with lust and laced with the little bit of fear remaining from the bathroom incident the hour before.

If I had been able to find Emma, she never would have ended up on her knees for Mana tonight. But of course, the vapid little bitch was nowhere to be found. I searched high and low before I located her. Once again, she left me high and dry, and I had to deal with what happened on my own.

I can be grateful that the stoic blonde giant was there to save me or this night could have gone so much worse. Kaleb offered to drive me home, his breath teasing my skin as he stared right through me with those luminous eyes. Maybe I should havetaken him up on the offer?
