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

“I feared for him that you would not return. He hasn’t left that room since he got back here three months ago,” he says carefully.

“I know, but he is up now and coming home with me,” I say softly.

“Good,” he says and turns to leave. “I’ll join you in a couple of days.”

I follow him out and go back upstairs to find CK. He has just got out of the shower as I walk into the bedroom and he is all clean-shaven and fresh again. I smile at him, taking in his damp hair and body, a towel slung low over his hips. He smiles back at me and takes me in his arms. “I love you,” he says. “I need you.”

“You need to feed first,” I say to him and right on cue there is a knock at the door.

He frowns at me. “I’m fine,” he says. “Your blood was more than enough.”

I pull away from him. “No, you are not. You need human blood.” I open the door and let in one of the men standing there. I am glad to see it is a man. I wouldn’t have been too happy to have him feeding from a woman while dressed only in a towel.

He sighs at me and runs his hand through his hair. I wait patiently and his frown deepens.

“Oh, I’m not going anywhere,” I say breezily. “Whenever you are ready.”

“I do not need supervision, Aefre,” he says sternly, and I smile at him.

“I know you don’t. But I want to stay, please,” I cajole him.

“Fine,” he grumbles and takes the man by the shoulders and turns his back to me. I roll my eyes at him. He is so private about it, even now. It’s so silly. He finishes up and the man scampers off to let the other one in.

My turn.

I smile sinfully at CK and with my eyes fixed firmly on his, I bite down on my Feeder and his eyes darken in desire. His lips part and his breathing deepens, and he takes a step closer. I release the man and he too departs, leaving us alone with only a towel separating me from his massive erection. A towel he discards as he advances on me when I slowly lower the zipper on my skirt and push it over my hips to show him my lack of underwear. He has me on the bed and under him in a flash after that, impaling me with a force I never knew possible. He was truly starving himself of everything a Vampire needs, suffering due to his sorrow and I feel avenged by his actions. He finishes quickly, in a matter of seconds, but, muttering apologies for his haste, he slows down and takes me again, making sure to bring me satisfaction before he lets himself go again.

He rests his forehead on mine for a few minutes and then kisses me again. “How did you get here?” he asks me.

“We flew from Paris to Florence and I Astralled from your apartment there. We really do need to g

et moving now, Cole is waiting for us,” I answer him.

He grunts in response and gets off me. He gets dressed in silence as I watch him. “You should get yourself cleaned up,” he says gruffly.

I nod and head to the shower, being quick about it. He is ready and waiting for me when I come back out. He silently takes my hand and Teleports us to his apartment and we exit it hand in hand. I know he wants to ask me something, but is holding back, so I say to him, “What is it? What do you want to ask me?”

“It’s nothing,” he says so I drop it. If he wants to ask me, he will.

Half an hour later we are back on the jet and Cole is hugging and kissing me fiercely, once again staking his claim on me. CK nods to him and goes to sit. We follow and we sit quietly while we take off. To my surprise, Cole breaks the silence by clearing his throat. We both look at him and he puts his hands on the table and looks directly at CK.

“Now that you are back, we need to discuss something,” he says and pauses while CK remains silent. “I know that Liv told you awhile back that I was unhappy with this arrangement of her going to you every week.”

CK shifts his eyes to me in query and I shrug. I have no idea where he is going with this.

“I know that you came up with an idea of your own, which she told me about, but she said that you would listen if I came up with an alternative arrangement. I have, so you will listen,” he says.

No one says another word for a few minutes.

Cole clears his throat again and steels himself. “I don’t want Liv to go off and see you for two days every week anymore. I want her by my side every day and every night, and I know that is what you want as well. Seeing as neither one of us is going to give her up, there leaves us only one solution.”

My breath hitches as I think I know where he is going with this.

“You will move in with us,” he declares. “Completely into our lives. You will share our house, our room, our bed. Liv and I will stay married, of course, but we will share her equally. She will be with both of us every day and every night unless, or until, she decides that she wants to choose one of us for good.”

My eyes remain glued to Cole’s face, whose eyes remain glued to CK’s. I cannot believe that he has just offered that. I am floored. I chance a look at CK who, to my surprise, looks even more shocked than I feel.

“You will share her?” he asks in disbelief. “What’s the catch?”
