“I missed you too, Ali,” I said as I hugged her back tightly. “I am so happy that you are here.”

She let me go and grinned widely. Her eyes fell on my dress and she gasped.

“Fuck, Mads, you look amazing,” she said. “That is one hell of a dress. What are you…”

She stopped talking when her eyes finally landed on, what I presumed was, a very angry-looking Dimitri. I smiled even wider, trying to make her feel just a little bit more comfortable.

“My King,” she mumbled, her eyes widening. “I am sorry, I didn’t…”

She looked back at me and gulped.

“It’s okay, Ali,” I said, reaching out and taking her hand in mine. “This is…”

She gasped and I realized that she was staring at Dimitri’s hands on my waist. She looked back up at me wide-eyed.

“Are you…,” she spoke, but she couldn't finish her question.

“My mate?” Dimitri said angrily. “Your Queen? Yes, yes she is.”

I slammed my elbow into his ribs. He didn’t have to be so rude. He just growled quietly and tightened his hold on me.

“Oh, I am so sorry!” Ali exclaimed, looking back at me. “I was just so excited to see you and I didn’t…”

“It’s okay, Ali,” I said, pulling her into another hug. “I am so excited to see you too.”

She hugged me back, but I could tell that she was very careful this time. I chuckled and looked at her.

“I am still the same Maddie,” I said. “You don’t have to treat me like a Queen, you know? We ate dirt together.”

Ali snorted quietly and shook her head at me.

“What?” Dimitri asked and I looked up at him.

“It was a dare,” I said, shrugging a little. “I don’t like to lose so I did it. Ali was kind enough to do it with me.”

Dimitri sighed and shook his head.

“Let’s not spread that story around,” he said. “It’s not very royal.”

Neither is building a treehouse and getting knocked out by a board.I mind-linked him, smirking a little.

He narrowed his eyes at me.

You just earned yourself a punishment, my Queen.He responded and my lower belly started tingling immediately.You should know better than to mock your King.

Oh, I can’t wait, Alpha.I said, trying to sound seductive.I am not wearing any underwear, did you know that? I am completely naked under this dress and I am ready to be…

He stopped me from finishing what I wanted to say by growling.

Don’t you finish that sentence.He said sternly.I will rip that fucking dress off your body and fuck you right now.

I bit the inside of my cheek to stop myself from laughing. He wasn’t going to do that. He would never let anyone see that. I wasn’t going to finish that sentence, though. He wouldn’t fuck me here, but he could drag me somewhere else and we didn’t really have time for that.

“Maddie?” Ali called me, making me look back at her.

She was looking at me with a confused expression on her face.

“I am sorry, Ali,” I said, giving her a small smile. “What did you ask me?”
