I want to speak to you today. I’ve instructed my brothers to bring you and my niece by the house this afternoon. See you soon, si
I read Gray’s text for what feels like the millionth time, my stomach churning with a mix of anger and dishehrt. Zuri’s happily munching on her breakfast, completely oblivious to the storm brewing in my hrad,
Where the hell does he get off summoning me to his house like I’m still the same little sister he used to bois around! I was clear last time: Apologize or fuck off. I don’t see an apology anywhere in this message to guess what Im not coming. And if Kang or Niko try to convince me otherwise, they’re in for a rude awakening

“I don’t think you have a choice, sweet girl. Niko chimes in, walking in behind him. He greets Zuri before heading into the kitchen.
can’t believe I had sex with both King and Nika last night, even if Niko and I didn’t go all the way–or should I say, King didn’t let as maybe that was for the best. Last night was like a test run, a demo to see if I could handle both of them..
And let’s be real, I handled it very well. Now that I’ve accepted the fact that I’m a cheating whore. I’m kinda atching for more. I mean, that’s all thes is right? An escape until the boys kill my husband and set me free.
I fold my arms over my chest defiantly. “I don’t want to see him. He didn’t even apologize to me, just summoned me like a damn dog. And he thanks I still want him to meet Zuri after what he said to mer
Niko sighs, popping open an energy drink he grabbed from the fridge. He’s dressed in a blue short–sleeved hoodie and black sweatpants. I know, but Gray Son’t someone you can really argue with, he replies calmly.
I can’t help but watch as he downs half the can in our go, his throat moving y with each gulp, making my mouth go dry,
God, these men have ruined my innocent mind forever.
When my gaze flickers back to King his jaw clenches, and 1 catch jealousy flare in his eyes. Which doesn’t make sense since he just had another man fuck my throat and eat me out last night

“No, Kitten: When he called me, he didn’t sound in the mond for a back–and–forth,” he grumbies
I’m guessing married life isn’t treating him well” I quip, trying to lighten the mood since King was acting weird. “I’d be miserable if I were living with Christine too.”
Nike snoris into his can, clearly amuserl.
“I’m disappointed in you guys, actually. I know I didn’t know about her, but you did, and no one thought to tell him how horrible she is?”
“You know, Mason almost did it once, but I managed to stop him in time. He was very defensive and overprotective of her from the beginning” Nike says, taking another swig of his drink.
I him thoughtfully. “I guess I can’t blame him for that I was the same way with haar, I admit, my voice softer now,
That’s so fucking embarrassing now.
“Did you eat breakfast!” King suddenly asks, his amber eyes drilling into me.
“No, she didn’t I offered several times to make her something, and she kept turning me down.” Sebastian yells from somewhere in the living roo
I glare in that direction. Thanks for ratting me out!”
I hear Sabastian’s quiet chuckle.

When my eyes find their way back to King, his eyebrow is cocking in that demanding way that makes my thighs squeeze together. Why not?” he asks grufly
I flash my phone at him, shrugging. “In my defense, this text kind of rufed my appetite.”
He doesn’t look convinced. “Eại something before we go.”

My mouth falls open. “You’re really going to drag me there!” i fire back.
A corner of his mouth lifts. “Til prefer not to, kitten, but it seems like you’re more obedient when you’re on your knees begging
Heat blowers across my cheeks

King walks past me and grabs a banana from the font bond on the commuter, shoving it into my hand. “Eat for me,” he says, a subtle threat underlining the command.

He meets my gaze, wablinking. “Theit, no one will be touching you tonight. I’ll make sure he doesn’t either. Beats don’t get rewarded”
My face twists in contemplation. Can I really go without it for a full day!
No, no, I can’t
Already knowing the answer, I sigh and start peeling the bintana. “Time,” Lasater, taking a

His words send a bolt of heat through me, and I nearly choke on the hamuna
Is he sawing that I get to have both of them tonight? Fucking me back to back! Oogether Either way, the idea has changed my mood entirely

When he pulls away, his expression is guarded, but I can see a glimmer of emotion in his eyes–the ugly green monster that he hasn’t done well at biding since last night.
Im confused. Doesn’t he want the to want Niko too? He not offered him to me, aber all.
King grabs an apple from the counter and walks out, leaving me to process everything 1 look at Niko for some kind of explanation, and he just- gives me a soft, knowing smile. “Don’t mind him. He’s just trying to get used to the idea of sharing visi” be mamus.
The way he says it, it’s clear they’ve talked about it without me: Sharing me like Tin some kind of toy they’re figuring out how in without breaking

“Nee–koo” Zuri suddenly says, and both of us whip our heads around to look at her. She’s reaching out towards him, demanding his attention
My jaw drops to the floor. “You’ve got to be freaking kidding me!”
Nikos fare lights up like Christmas moming “Did did she just say my name? Her first word?” he asks, incredulous.
Jealousy spikes in my chest, sharp and bitter. What the hell? Why couldn’t her first word be Mama!
But instead of sulking. I laugh, shaking my head. ‘Nee–kon, your baby is calling you”
Niko beams as he lifts her from her high chair, hugging her to his chest, “Can you say Nee–koo again, princess”
“Ner–koo,” the repeats with a bubbly laugh.

He chuckles, clearly pleased with himself. I’m sorry, sweet girl. I didn’t mean to steal her first word from you.”
But the grin plastered on his face says otherwise.
I roll my eyes, still smiling despite myself. “Whatever. Let’s go get dressed. I guess I’m getting sucked into the Niko fan club too
