wall.
Standing was beyond him. Just as his knees gave out Moe was there to lift him gently and hold him
close. He was spent. Mentally, emotionally, physically, sexually. Tears of regret for not being the mate
his
man needed mingled with the tears borne from the shame of his actions, and dripped down his face.
He was
unable to do more than just lay in his arms as Moe walked back up the stairs.
I can suck cock, huh? The outlandish question had Rhys struggling to sit up and turning in Moe s
arms to look at his mate. Moe was grinning down at him. Rhys felt his mouth drop.
I can t believe you. I just totally lost it down there and that s all you can say? he demanded.
Moe stopped, thought about it for a second, and then with a megawatt smile said, I love you. Rhys s
heart stopped. It was too much. Tonight had been too much. He sobbed into the broad chest of his
mate
uncontrollably.
Shush, baby, I have you. And I m never letting you go.
Rhys was beyond speech. He felt Moe gently place him on their bed and strip off his blood-soaked
clothes. Minutes later a warm wash cloth caressed his skin in soft circles. When he was clean Moe
joined
him in their bed, spooning up behind him, holding him close.
I love you too, Rhys whispered, clutching Moe s arm to his body tightly, afraid that if he let go he
would lose this godlike man.
Just keep loving me. All I need is you. He felt Moe s warm breath on the back of his neck. He
nodded
before curling up and letting sleep take him.

Rhys kept smiling shyly over at his mate the next day at breakfast. They held hands under the table at
the diner. Moe looked like the cat that ate the canary. Moe had woken up extra early to clean up the
kitchen
so Peyton wouldn t freak out when he went down for his morning tea.
He really didn t deserve this man. He yawned and sat up straighter, stretching his back.
Thanks for watching Aidhan, Ma. Becca really needed the break, Aleks said, kissing the top of his
son s head.
Oh my god, yes. Thank you, Ma! Sebastian echoed. Ashby nodded.
Rhys smiled at the men. They looked exhausted.
I had seven boys. Handling these three angels will be no trouble. Ma bounced Aidhan on her hip
and
tickled Lucian.
We are totally going to have some guy time, right? Ashby asked Nic and Sebastian. They nodded.
Yeah, we re going to down some drinks, watch the ole boob tube and eat like pigs, Nic said in a
gruff
voice.
You mean you re going to drink some of Gabriel s best wine, watch reruns of Highlander and eat
cheesecake? Felix asked.
Ashby giggled. Yup.
Wish I could join you but I have an appointment with my mate s cock, Felix said urbanely.
Felix, geez! Sebastian slapped his friend s shoulder.
Just saying. Felix shrugged. Maddox shook his head and sipped his coffee.
Okay I don t want to jinx us, but do you guys feel that? Nic asked, rubbing his chest.
No. I am ignoring it. I want my cheesecake! Sebastian pouted.
Is it Rebecca? Aleks asked, reaching for his cell phone. He quickly dialed home.
Hey, baby, you okay?
I feel okay, except a little funny, okay a lot funny, but then I m kinda funny you know, haha.
Rebecca s ramble was strange even for her.
Becca?
So did you know I can see sounds? They are like swimming itty bitty dots in my eyeballs. Some are
green. I like the blue ones.
Is she fucking high? Rian asked, his eyes wide.
I feel sad. Ashby rubbed his eyes.
Baby, are you sad? Aleks demanded, clutching his cell phone.
I m not, but my chest is. Well, not the parts you licked earlier this morning, you know when you
wrapped your tongue around&
Becca! Aleks blushed to his hairline.
Well if you re not talking about the happy outside parts, then yes it s like my inside heart is sad.
Cool,
the green ones are whispering to me.
What the ever-loving fuck is wrong with her? Felix looked concerned.
Nic s phone rang. He looked down and answered immediately.
Yeah Kate, we know something is wrong with Becca, he said immediately.
I am a horrible mother! Oh my god why did I think I could do this? I can t do this! I can t! There s
four of them. Someone is always hungry or wet or crying. I don t have enough time to cuddle them all!
I m
not enough for my babies! Kate s frantic voice worked its way up in octaves.
You are an amazing mother. It s okay, Katie Bell, Nic crooned into his phone.
I don t like the red ones! Fuck off, red! Becca screamed.
Aleks gripped his gun.
That s it. Becca, what in the hell is going on over there?
Since my human body can t even feed my own baby, I realized I could have coffee again. I made
myself a pot this morning.
Aleks visibly relaxed.
Thank god it s just coffee.
Aleks, Connor called from behind the counter.
Becca, honey, why don t you get some rest like we talked about?
No, I want more coffee-e-e-e-e.
Aleks! Connor yelled slamming his hands on the counter.
Aleks covered up the mouthpiece of his phone with his hand.
What!
Did you guys buy a coffee pot? Connor asked, looking worried.
No, we only have that thing you bought her for her birthday, Aleks said and Connor s face turned
from a sick panicked look to one of terror.
Aleks, I bought her an espresso machine, it doesn t make pots of coffee! How many espressos has
she
had?
Aleks looked down at his phone as if it were a live snake.
