“She will find someone else,” I reply, kissing her forehead.
“What happened with Nova?” she asks in a soft tone. Saylor didn’t want me to kill her, which I knew was coming. So, I had a Plan B in motion from the get-go.
“I got Soren to use his persuasion on all three of them,” I tell her, cupping my ass. “They won’t remember me. They won’tremember fucking me. Nothing. If, by some tiny chance, she does remember and comes back, then she will die. I’m not taking any risks with you.”
“I love you,” she says, kissing me gently. Her gloved hands cradle my jaw. “Can Soren do that to everyone you’ve been with? It will make me feel much better. Actually, can he do it to you so that you only remember being with me?”
Laughing, I slap her ass and soothe it with my hand. “No need, little wolf. Your face is the only one I remember. And your beautiful body. Fuck, as far as I’m concerned, you’re the only one who counts.”
“As far as I’m concerned, you’re saying all those sweet words which make me want to fuck you,” she whispers, getting on top of me, her breasts in my face. Unable to help myself, I suck on her nipples, biting down just the way I know she likes it.
My fingers slide into her wet pussy, my come still in there from our last round. “I’m always so fucking hard around you,” I mutter, sliding another finger in, stroking them against her G-spot.
“Good because I’m always wet around you,” she replies, moaning softly. “Fuck me, Bane. I need you inside me, now.”
I remove my fingers just as she grips my cock and slides down on it, both of us gasping in pleasure. She starts to rock on me, up and down, while I play with her nipples until she’s panting, being more sensitive there than usual.
I’m about to come when there’s a knock at the door.
Saylor stops swiveling on my dick and freezes. “What?” I call out.
There’s a pause, and then, “My sister said she’s making us cake! It’s not even bedtime! You’ve already gotten her pregnant, for fuck’s sake. Let her be vertical for once.”
“I’d fuck you vertical, too,” I mutter, and Saylor starts laughing, which only makes her pussy tighten on my cock.
“I should have left you in that tower,” I yell, and Saylor slaps my arm. “What? Your brother is the biggest cockblock I’ve ever met.”
“I did tell him to come over for cake,” she mutters, sliding out of bed and running to the shower.
Lying back in bed and staring up at the ceiling, I smile as I hear her rushing out of the shower and throwing some clothes on.
This life?
Her?
I wouldn’t give it up for anything.
EPILOGUE
August
Watching my fated mate lose her smile when her blue eyes land on me is a blow to the chest.
“What are you doing here?” she asks me, glancing around like she doesn’t want to be seen with me. I didn’t expect to find her in Chaos, but when Laurel told me she’d be here, I had to come. Laurel’s words have been haunting me ever since she said them—that Milana needs to be on our side or something bad will happen.
How will she ever be on our side?She hates me—we killed her father.
“Can we talk?” I ask her, shoving my hands in my pockets.
I know she feels the pull between us. She has to. It’s fate, magic, whatever you want to call it, and yet she denies what’s there. I might not be a king or have the strongest magic in the realm, but I’m a good male. I will love and care for her. I’ll do anything to be the one to make her smile.
“As long as you don’t try and kidnap me and lock me up again,” she replies, scowling.
I hate to admit it, but Saylor was right to let her go. She looks better, her cheeks have filled out more, and the dark circles underneath her eyes are gone.
“I won’t.”
“Okay,” she agrees, leaving the inn with me to step outside.
