“Yes Ma-am,” I whisper into her ear loving when she uses that voice on us.

I love seeing her strong, standing up for what she wants.

Every day she gets stronger, the notes and the constant threat of Jane pushes her to train harder. Not wanting to ever feel weak again, not that she ever has been.

Our girl is one of the strongest people I have ever known. To survive what she did and still get out of bed every day and now she trains daily.

Self-defense with Zander or Atlas training her with a gun, she has become an unstoppable force and I’m in awe of how she does it.

Autumn steps out of my arms, kissing me on the cheek, her lipstick transferring. Her hand reaches out to wipe it off, but I dodge her.

“Leave it. I like wearing your mark.”

“You look ridiculous with a pink lip mark on your cheek,” She laughs stepping towards me once again with every intention of removing it, “Let me get it and I’ll give you a proper kiss.”

“No thank you,” I say again as I dodge her attempts to reach for me, laughing as I do.

Dominic

“If he gets a mark, I want one too,” I grumble as I watch my Cupcake try to remove the lipstick stain from Tobias’s cheek.

I don’t normally feel any jealousy when I watch my girl interact with her other boyfriends, I just want her to be happy after all, but the little green monster is rearing up as I watch my Cupcake with Tobias.

First Sebastian got her teeth imprint tattooed on his wrist and now the lipstick mark, even if this one is temporary.

“Do you feel left out Pet?” Autumn taunts me as she walks over to me and straight into my arms.

Pushing down the little green monster as much as I can, I focus on how right it feels to have Autumn in my arms.

“I do,” I pout down at her as she giggles at my expression.

Reaching on her tiptoes slightly she grasps my chin with her fingers, tilting my head to the side. Her lips brushing against my neck causes a shiver to travel through my body “Fuck Cupcake,” I groan, pressing my forehead to hers.

“Happy?” she asks me.

“Ecstatic. You look so fucking edible Cupcake, I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner.”

“Thank you, Pet.”

“God, I really hate that nickname,” I can’t help but complain even when deep down I love it when she calls me that, “Go see your other boyfriends before I decide to rip that dress off of you.”

“Later,” She promises me as she pulls me down and kisses me.

Sebastian

We are the luckiest men ever Sunshine,” I tell Autumn as I pull her into my arms. Zander comes up behind her and cages her between us, his arms snaking around her waist as he presses himself closer making sure she can’t move.

“You look delectable Princess. My favorite snack,” Zander growls into her ear, grazing his teeth against her ear lobe.

“We’re going to be late,” Autumn says as she wiggles between us. A poor attempt at trying to dislodge herself.

“Worth it.”

Running my hand down her hip, loving the soft curve that is now there. I continue to let my hand fall to the slit in her dress that exposes her right thigh, fully intending on finding out if our girl is wearing panties or not. Pausing when my fingers come into contact with the knife sheath that Dominic gifted her.

“Fuck Sunshine. Are you armed?” I ask her.

“Uh-huh.” She nods.
