When we rushed inside the ICU waiting room, several members from Genesis were there to lend support, along with Emile—Mika’s father—Drake, Trevor, Sammie, and Julianna who was curled up in the Domme’s arms sleeping.Sending Nick a pleading stare, my heart skipped a beat when he solemnly nodded.

I hurried across the room and sent Sammie a weak smile.

“Wake up, baby,” she softly murmured, rousting Julianna awake.“There’s someone here to see you.”

When she raised her head and lifted her lids, I wanted to cry.She looked utterly defeated.Her chin quivered as she climbed off Sammie’s lap and tossed her arms around me with a fierce hug.She’d lost so much weight; I could feel her bones.

“How are you holding up, love?”I whispered in her ear.

Easing back, she wiped the tears from her cheeks and shook her head.“I’ve been better.”

“I know…you poor thing.”

“Not me.Mika.”She sighed.“I was so terrified, I couldn’t move.I didn’t know what to do.But Mika did.He was so brave…so determined to save me.I-I would have died if not for him.”

“That’s fine, go ahead and hog Savannah’s lovin’ all for yourself.I see how you are,” Trevor quipped with a smiled that didn’t reach his eyes as he hugged us both.

“I’m gonna get some coffee.With all these subbie butts in my face, my hand’s itching to grab a whip.”Sammie winked and stood.“Sit and visit, pets.What do you want me to bring you from the cafeteria, Julianna?”

“Nothing yet, Ma’am.Thank you,” she said, shaking her head.

“You need nourishment, girl.Don’t make me sic Drake and Emile on your ass.Understand?”Sammie whispered, pinning her with a bad-ass-Domme glare.

“Yes, Ma’am,” Julianna sighed in resignation.

Julianna refused to leave the hospital.So, Trevor and I stayed with her, day and night, enticing her to eat and sleep.

Dylan had been right.Mika was indeed stubborn.He recovered so quickly, the medical staff was shocked.In no time, he was back home recuperating with Julianna at his side.His near-death experience had changed him.Mika was no longer a ghost, but a dedicated Master to his devoted slave.

Epilogue

The champagne was flowing as we left the port of Miami.

Mika stood on deck, dressed as a dashing pirate, wearing a smile that rivaled the sun.Julianna—tucked in close to his side—wearing a sexy wench costume, glowed with pride.The sunlight reflecting off the golden collar adorning her throat sent shimmers of light all around.

With his extended kinky family gathered before him, Mika raised his glass.“To all you scurvy landlubbers, it warms me heart to share this adventure with ye.”

“If you keep talking like that, Master, I’m going to start begging you to rape and pillage me,” Julianna giggled.

“Aye, me sexy wench.Have no fear.I’ll be driving me bone in your bountiful booty soon.”

Julianna gasped and her cheeks flushed crimson as Mika swooped in for a powerful kiss.

Long seconds later, he released her and smiled.

“I’m glad you’re all here to share a week of debauchery on the high seas.”Mika suddenly sobered.“There aren’t words to express the love and gratitude in my heart for everything you’ve done for Julianna and I these past few months.Being shot was one of the worst things I’ve ever been through.But at the same time, one of the best.I understand now how precious and short life really is.I hope you’ll all follow my lead, and spend time doing what you love, with the people you love.

Mika dropped his gaze to Julianna, who quickly wiped a tear from her cheek.

“Thank you all.I truly love each and every one of you.”Mika raised his glass, swallowed the bubbly liquid, then tossed it over the side of the ship.“Let the spankings begin!”

We all cheered and laughed.As I clinked my glass against Dylan’s and Nick’s my heart sputtered.The love reflecting in my Masters’ eyes was more blinding and breathtaking than the sun sinking to the horizon over crystal blue water.

The dinner buffet was to die for, and I ate until I ached.As we dressed in our spacious suite before going below deck to join in the dungeon festivities, I begged Nick, who was cinching up my corset, not to make it too tight.

“Relax, little one.The only suffering you’ll have to endure is beneathourhands.”

His deviant chuckle made my blood heat.But when I turned and saw both of my Masters dressed in dark suits, flames of arousal flared and sizzled through me.
