A Forever Series Box Set: A Paranormal Reverse Harem-(Book 6-10)

“And you know this how?” CK asks curiously as Cole frowns at me.

Err, watch what you say… “Because I was fast asleep and was woken up by her servants to feed. They were the only ones I saw while I was there,” I say, feeling bad that it wasn’t exactly how it happened, but they believe me and decide between themselves that this is a good idea.

“Very well. 6:30 AM and 6:30 PM are now your designated feeding times,” CK declares and Cole agrees.

“You have to keep it up, Liv, especially if you are to go after that thing.”

“Fine. But I won’t be responsible for seeking it out. He comes up or it gets forgotten,” I say. Don’t get me wrong, I love to feed on humans. But there is always this icky side to me that reminds me of what I could do to them if I let the beast out. I don’t want to be that person anymore and if I could get away with it, I wouldn’t feed on humans at all. But Queen Power

s are draining and the only thing for it is human blood.

“Done,” CK says and pushes Ramon towards me, which is unnecessary as he is eager for the bite and that concerns me as well.

Chapter 10

After taking my fill, Cole asks them to leave as we have to get ready for our night out. CK is reluctant to leave but with a lingering glance at me he goes, bending down to whisper in my ear that he has spoken to Sebastian and the rules have been set, but he needs to talk to me about something, before he kisses me.

I nod and step back and in a swirl of fog, I am ready to go as he leaves.

“No,” Cole says. “You are also too recognizable with your Dragon. Change.”

I look down at myself and sigh. Fine, back-covered clothing it is. I choose a black crushed velvet dress, which reaches my mid-thigh, with a plunging neckline but with a full back and long flared sleeves.

“Happy?” I ask as I twirl in a circle.

“Very,” Cole says as he kisses me.

“Time to go,” Devon says, breezing in with a very excited Jess next to him.

“Dev…” I start, but he holds his hand up.

“Lizzie. She’s fine.”

I’m not so sure and he can see it on my face.

“I promise you; I won’t let anything bad happen, but she needs to get out,” he says glancing at her with a small smile that breaks my heart.

“Fine, but we need to talk. Soon,” I say quietly, and he nods.

I take Cole’s hand and he leads us down to Grayson and the waiting limo.

Masks already waiting for us as well, I am getting quite excited about this myself.

Several minutes later we pull up to a huge mansion that I quite like the looks of for myself, and we don our masks and get out of the car. Nothing too fancy, for any of us, as we are all trying to keep as low a profile as possible, we slink into the house and give our names. Turns out that pseudonyms are the norm and I chuckle as Cole gives ours as Mr. and Mrs. Coortan, which is of course my maiden name from when I was a human.

“Funny,” I murmur as we glide into the foyer.

“Well, I thought it was kind of cute being your real name and all,” he says with a sideways glance at me.

Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer (which by the way almost made me choke) join us and we get a glass of wine each and then just stand there.

“So? What now?” I ask and Cole looks at me in question.

“Never been to one of these parties, have you?”

“Well, yes,” I say. “But you arranged this, I don’t know what your plans are.”

“Hm, I think my plan starts upstairs. We’ll be seeing you two later,” he says to Devon and Jess and they wave us off as Cole pulls me towards the staircase.
