A hundred-dollar bill lands on my lap. “You’ve slept long enough, Sleeping Beauty.” Vaden leans back against his chair, the muscles in his arms rippling when he rests them on the top.
“You know, you’re starting to lose your beloved title of the nice boy of the group, Vade.” My hand finds my hair. That joint this morning knocked my ass right out since it’s now six p.m. “I might need to check you all into rehab.”
Priest eyes me closely as he drops onto one of the single sofas near the pool table. “You find her?”
“I know where she is.” I tap the locator app on my phone.
The door closes behind me and the hairs on the back of my neck rise.
“Shesnuck out for a dick appointment—” Halen strolls past, snatching the rolled bill and glaring at me over her shoulder. “Stalker much?”
I flip her off. “Do I look like the kind to give a fuck?”
Her hair flows over her shoulder when she turns her back to me with an eye roll, and my eyes land on the curve of her ass.
My finger twitches, mirrored by the corner of my upper lip.
A sheer black bodysuit cradles every bend of her body, except the black g-string. Murder nonnegotiable if a motherfucker looked too close.
The note disappears up her nostril as the dust of snow vanishes.
Clearing one side, she swings around and lands on Vaden’s lap.
Priest has always had a way of being able to hold an entire room without saying a single word.
The silent echo of his stare locks mine in place as Halen pops off on whatever bullshit she’s going on about.
“So, I’ve discovered something seriously concerning.” She pretends to play with her long, coffin-shaped nails. You have asister like River, and you get a brother knowing what the fuckcoffin-style nails are.
“What?” Priest’s lip twitches.
“Well…” Her head angles to the side, regarding each of us evenly. “You see, it’s very unfortunate that we’re all kind of related. Except for War and I.”
“And?” Vaden stares up at her through dark lashes. He curls a lock around his finger, regarding her with the kind of patience only Vaden has.
“And I don’t find that very fun. Do you?” She shifts her body into Vaden, linking her arm behind his neck. “You may be our holy child, oh dear saved one, but even you have to want sex.”
“Why would it matter?” My brows rise, saving Vaden from Halen’s persistence. That’s not hers to pry into, much less assume. It’s easy enough to because he’s a King.
“Well, since we have to consummate our coming into the Kingdom—officially—and it’s Friday the thirteenth this Friday…" I look back down at my phone. Fuck. It is. “I’ve planned a little party.”
My body turns to stone.
The corner of her mouth twitches when she notices my subtle reaction. “Not just for us girls… I got you all someone too.”
Yeah. She’s really going all out with the wholeI’m an official King now, suck my dick.
“Halen, I don’t want or need anyone on my dick,” Priest snarls at her.
“First of all, ew!” Leaving Vaden’s lap, she swipes theScreammask beside him before stopping in front of her brother.
She slides it over his head. “What if I told you, dear brother, that I want to help you? That we could all do what we wanted, without one, our parents finding out, and two—” She pauses. “—without it implicating the EKC—” She leans in close, but becausePriest is opposite me, I get a direct view of her from behind. And by the theatrical arch in her back, she knows it.
“—and without needing to go to Perdita.”
For the second time since she’s walked her ass into this room, she’s done the impossible.
Left me fucking speechless.
