I thrusted out quickly before I slammed in feeling myself spill into her. It left me seeing spots while Lucien still fucked her finding his release. Her body became limp on me, with her neck right in front of me.

Mine!

My canine’s descended, I was still riding post coital bliss when I opened my mouth to bite her, running my teeth down her neck. She shivered.

“Katarina?!”

The sound of someone's voice brought me out of my moment.

“Serena?” Katarina tried to scramble off of me, but her hands were still tied making her lose her balance. Lucien caught her while Aeon brought her the necklace.

“Serena, what happened?” She sounded worried.

“We are having a hard time finding two things and one of them has become nearly impossible. I'll be there tomorrow though, but so will Ryder.”

“Shit,” Katarina whispered. “What does he want?”

“He won’t tell me, he said he wanted to negotiate with you and the guys.”

“That asshole, ok well… I’ll be here,” Katarina said, sounding slightly worried.

“I can’t wait to see you Kat.”

“Me too, see ya.” She set down the stone on the table looking at all of us then at me.

We locked eyes as she shivered. I'd say she was cold, but I think she knew what I was about to do. I didn’t know if I was disappointed or relieved.

KATARINA

After some of the most mind-blowing sex ever, Lucien and Aeon took me up to my room. Zev said his wolf was gnawing at him to check the perimeter. I didn’t want to worry but a small part of me was wondering if their wolves could sense something we didn’t.

My body hurt in the best way, but my heart? My heart was fucked. Zev felt like he was going to mate with me before Serena called and interrupted. I felt his sharp teeth scrape my skin and when I glanced at him after talking to Serena, he looked utterly confused.

I’d be lying if I said I was relieved but there was a small part of me that was disappointed. I hated that part of me, that wanted him so much I felt like I wasn’t complete without him. Zev and I were like oil and water, we were too different, and he was an insufferable asshole.

“Are you ok?” Aeon rubbed my hands and wrist.

“Yeah, I’m ok, that was…”

“Amazing? Fantastic? Mind-blowing?” Lucien tried finishing my sentence.

“Yes, all of those.” I smiled.

“I have to say watching you with Zev was hot. I didn’t think I would get so hard from watching, but I did. I fucking loved it,” Lucien pecked me on the lips.

“Was this your plan, to kidnap me from my bed and tie me up to entice him? I think I know what you guys are doing and I don’t think it's going to work,” I said, gauging their reactions because I had been feeling like they might do something like this. I had heard them a time or two saying our bond wasn’t complete without Zev.

They missed their friend, their pack mate and while I understood, Zev scared me. His love would be the category five hurricane that put me through a whirlwind of emotions. It could flood my heart with love, destroy my insecurities but could also leave me in ruins. As much as I craved his bond, his love, his grumpiness, leaving them all in agony didn’t sit well with me. That felt like a worse future than what Vivienne left them in.

After the curse was broken, we could talk about it, and if that's what he wanted, then we could bond, but I had a feeling after this close encounter, I was sure he would push himself to stay away.

Aeon stayed quiet while Lucien shrugged.

“I mean what’s the harm in enticing him?” Lucien looked sheepish.

“Have you thought about what it does to me?” I wanted to be upset that they used me, but I understood why they had done it.
