“I’ll hold you to that.” I threaten as Thorn and I make our way to the truck.

“I would hope so,” he answers cheekily, opening the door and helping me get into the middle. “I’ll even let one of my brothers eat you out while I do it.”

I almost faceplant into Blade’s lap as I stumble because of Thorn’s dirty words.

“I volunteer as tribute,” Blade states, completely deadpan as he helps me sit down and buckles me in.

“You don’t even know what we’re talking about,” I huff, though it’s all breathy and shit on account of the visuals that are currently playing through my mind.

“I don’t need to, Goldilocks. If it involves my tongue and your pussy, that’s all I need to know.”

“You are all fucking perverts,” I tell them, which earns me three masculine chuckles.

“You love us this way,” Thorn tells me with a wink as he buckles in and Chase pulls away from the Institute.

“I do, so fucking much,” I reply, leaning over and pecking his lips before doing the same to Blade.

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE

“RUN LIKE A RIVER” BY JAMICA

THORN

It takes us just under four hours to get back home, the sun lowering in the sky as Chase pulls into the driveway. Luna fell asleep again pretty quickly, her head on my shoulder, Blade grabbing a blanket we now keep in the truck for her. I bought it because it’s soft and fuzzy with the night sky and constellations all over it. She squealed when she first saw it, which was reward enough.

“Dad’s not going to be pleased that we’re stopping the treatment,” I murmur, placing a soft kiss on the silk of Luna’s headscarf. I’m beyond pleased she likes them, even if I wish she didn’t feel like she had to wear them. She’s beautiful with or without hair.

“Well, he can fuck off,” Blade rumbles, and my lips twitch upwards. I love how protective he is over our girl.

“It’s not his choice,” Chase says as he comes to a stop in front of the mansion. “You guys take Luna to bed, I’ll talk to him.”

“I’ll come with you,” I say, not wanting Chase to keep having to face our father alone. “I’m sure Blade can keep Luna occupied until we’re done.”

“I’m not a fucking toddler,” she grumbles sleepily, and I chuckle. “And shouldn’t I be there too?”

Her voice is a little hesitant, and I look at her as she sits up, seeing the tension but also weariness in her entire body.

“No, you don’t need to deal with him on top of everything else,” I tell her, and her lips part—no doubt to argue—but I speak before she can. “Let us do this for you, and you and Blade can start packing so that we can head to The Cottage.”

“The Cottage?” she questions, but I don’t miss the way her eyes light up, or how her pulse flutters in her neck at my words.

“Mom’s old place, it’s called The Cottage,” I say, unbuckling her seat belt. “Did we mention it has a private beach?”

Her eyes widen as her lips split into a grin. “Fuck off! Seriously?”

I laugh, opening the door and then helping her out as the others get out too. “Seriously. So pack your swimsuit.”

“And a cover up,” Chase interjects, walking towards us.

“Spoilsport,” Luna sasses, but Chase ignores it, gently grabbing the front of her throat. She fucking melts, her eyelids fluttering as they always do anytime one of us dominates her, and it makes my shorts tighten as my dick starts to get excited.

“I will punish bratty behaviors, Star, and I will make sure you are looked after. So be a good girl and pack your cover ups and wide-brimmed hat while you’re at it so that I can reward you instead.”

“Yes, sir,” she replies without hesitation, her tone all breathy, and now I’m going to meet with my dad with a full fucking hard-on.

“Good girl,” he whispers, using his grip to bring her face to his and brushing his lips against hers.Fuck. It’s so hot that apulse of fire races down my spine. Releasing her into Blade’s waiting arms—because she’s definitely a little wobbly after that show—he strides towards me. “Let’s get this shit over with, then we can pack a bag and get Jerry to pack the rest of our stuff and send it on.”

Steeling my shoulders, my hard-on deflates with every step as we make our way inside after Jerry opens the door for us.
