Page 77 of Luna: Posy 2

My happy smile faltered when I thought of something, and my breathing became sharp and short.

"Wait. Is that bad? Does that make me bad? Father— Father said I was a bad girl. Father said bad girls were whores and sluts who—"

I couldn't get any more words out for the panic clogging my throat.

"Stop, Posy." Wyatt bounced me up and down and pushed my face in his neck. "I only asked because I wanted you to be comfortable. We love touching you, and we love that you don't mind more than one of us wanting to touch you at once. You are not bad. It is perfectly normal to want your mates and vice versa."

"You mean it?" I breathed.

"Yes, and if anyone everdaresto call you a slut or a whore, I will end them. You are a good girl. The goodest good girl in the world, and I love you."

"I love you, too." I kissed his mate mark, and a hard shudder rippled through his body.

"Forgive us, Posy." Cole stroked my hair. "We've been reunited with you for five minutes, and we made you panic twice."

"No, it's my fault. I'm sorry," I told him as I snuggled into Wyatt's chest, so embarrassed that I wished I could crawl into his skin.

"Honey, you don't have anything to be sorry for."

Drawing my face out of Wyatt's neck, I turned my eyes to Cole and hesitated at his red, tense face.

He angry at Alpha Briggs, not you,Lark said.I no think he ever get mad at you.

Knowing her words were true, I unwound myself from Wyatt and reached for Cole. He gathered me up in his arms as Wyatt stepped back. Stuffing his face in my neck, Cole's long stubble rubbed against my skin and made me quiver, and I let out a shaky breath.

"There's nothing to forgive. Ash was being playful and Wyatt asked a question. I love you all so much. Thank you for being patient with me when I act stupid or panic over dumb things."

"Like Mase said, you aren't dumb or stupid."

He kissed my mate mark, making tingles explode down my spine, and that funny sound came out of my mouth again.

"I'm sorry," I muttered, squirming with embarrassment. "I didn't mean to make that noise."

He raised his head and grinned at me.

"Are you kidding? I love your moans. We all do. Moan as often and as loudly as you want."

Still red-faced, I turned the conversation to him.

"The king told Queen Lilah that you went with him to deal with some nasty things in the basement, but were able to rescue Gamma Reuben." My eyes searched his, looking for distress or trauma.

"It was pretty nasty." He agreed with a nod. "I'm just glad we got there in time to get Reuben out alive."

"How is he?"

"The witches put him into a deep sleep. Sort of like a coma, from what I can tell. Once his body heals, they'll wake him up and work on his mental and emotional health."

"I'm sorry you had to deal with that," I whispered and pecked his cheek. "And I'm proud of you for holding it together so you could help the king and rescue our gamma."

"It's my job, but thank you, darling girl. Your heart is so sweet."

"It is, isn't it?" Jayden laid his head on Cole's shoulder and stared into my eyes. "Our sweet-hearted sweetheart. You're beautiful inside and out. You know that?"

Feeling bashful, I dropped my eyes to the ground, but Jayden slipped his fingers under my chin and lifted my face to meet his twinkling eyes.

He's so flirty! It makes my insides squirm!

He flirts because he know that,Lark smirked.Flirt back, girl!
