Kingston’s hold tightened around me as my words landed. “Fuck you both. She deserves so much more than this from you. She’s not your little cocksleeve to use and throw away when you’re done with her.”
It wasn’t exactly a bouquet of roses, but it was right there among the most romantic gestures I’d ever experienced. Especially coming from Kingston. He’d promised me I could always count on him, that he would never walk away from me, and he was proving it right here and now.
“You don’t understand the implications,” Caleb said. “This is so much bigger than the five of us.”
“Abomination,” Noah whispered, his complexion sallow, eyes haunted. That single word sent a chill down my spine.
A protective growl escaped Kingston, one I’d never heard from him before. “Our baby isn’t an abomination. Say it again, and you won’t have a tongue when I’m through with you.” Before any of us had a chance to respond, Kingston scooped me up into his arms. “Come on, Sunshine. You don’t need those two spineless fucks. You know I’m all in. And we already know it’s my pup you’re carrying. Let them tuck tail and run. I’ll never let you down. I know what it fucking means to be a mate. And once we get the Viking back, you know he’ll be right there beside you too. They’re lucky he’s not here now. He’d have torn them to shreds for that bullshit they’re spewing.”
He might have been speaking to me, but his words were aimed at the two vampires behind us.
“Sunday, wait. I—” Noah called after us, but I just shook my head and buried my face in Kingston’s warm chest.
“Too little, too late, leech. From now on, consider yourself relieved of duty. We don’t need you. Any of you.”
I couldn’t respond. It was too painful, and I was busy fighting against the tears clawing at my throat. But Kingston held me together, kept me from falling to pieces. He pressed a kiss to my temple and whispered, “I’ve got you, baby. I’ll take care of you. Always.”
