“Breakfast is almost ready,” he greets, winking at Carmen. “Morning, Resha,” Ryx purrs, making her wiggle against me.
“Behave,” I growl, as I take her to the sofa and sit down with her on my lap.
“With her around? Never!” he calls as she laughs.
Xal comes downstairs and sits silently beside me. Without looking, Carmen reaches out and takes his hand, making him smile widely. Vrid throws himself down on my other side as Ryx starts loading the table with plates and mugs.
“Okay, let’s eat!” he announces. Carmen hops up happily, dragging Xal and me with her, but then she freezes and looks back at Vrid, who’s still on the sofa.
“I need three hands,” she mutters. She shakes her head, lets go of me, grabs his hand, and places it on her ass. “Better.” She nods seriously before taking our hands again and sauntering over to the table.
Our crazy little mate.
One thing is for sure, the future is never going to be boring with her and I can’t wait to see what it brings.

Carmen
After we finish eating, we collapse on the sofa, full from the feast Ryx made. My eyes are half closed, I’m so relaxed. I hear Xal and Vrid talking, their voices making me smile, but I don’t bother joining in, just happy that they’re all here.
Kronk is lying underneath me, my body sprawled across his big one like a purring blanket. I feel Ryx playing with my toes, making me smile. This, this is what I want for the rest of my life. What I said to Kronk is true, I want children. I can’t wait for that, but it doesn’t feel like the right time. Until then, we can just carry on the way we are. In love and happy…probably with more than a bit of trouble involved if I have anything to do with it. Not that my mates care, they love the trouble and the crazy. I never thought I would be so lucky to meet such amazing men...er, aliens.
When I imagined my future, I was always excited. I couldn’t wait to meet my mates, but never in my wildest dreams did I imagine such strong, sexy, and understanding mates. They don’t want me to be anything but what I am.
One of them.
Unashamedly their mate.
“Let’s ask her,” I hear Vrid mutter, drawing my attention. Opening my eyes, I grin at them as they all turn to me. “Carmen, settle this. Who has the best body?”
I laugh, I can’t help it. Seeing these big, strong warriors arguing over such a mundane issue amuses me. I turn serious, tapping my chin like I’m debating. “Hmm, I might need extra data. Why don’t you all strip for me so I can compare you side by side?”
“I think we can provide extra data.” Vrid grins, his eyes darkening as Ryx snorts. “Unless they’re scared?”
Those words have them all moving. Kronk jumps to his feet, plopping me back down on the couch, followed by Xal and Ryx. Vrid grins at me. “Scared!” Ryx hollers, feigning he’s been insulted.
“I’ll give you scared,” Kronk growls as Xal starts to strip.
I giggle and tuck my knees under me, getting comfy, and watch the show as they all rip their clothes off. I laugh as each one tries to be the first to get naked. Well...all apart from Vrid, who waits until they’re done. My eyes are roving over my mates, taking in all their exposed skin, and their erect, hard cocks. My mouth waters and my pussy clenches as I eat up their nakedness with my eyes.
Vrid draws my gaze by clearing his throat. Once he has my full attention, he grins then slowly peels his clothes from his perfect body. My pussy pulses, my nipples hardening as he removes his clothes like a choreographed strip tease. The way his hips roll, the flexing of his abs...as my mates would say.
Vekking hell.
“Show off,” Ryx scoffs as they all line up before me.
“Well?” Xal prods, his hand tracing down his chest, distracting me.
I stand up and circle around them, teasing them all by trailing my finger across their chests and backs while I pretend to think. I even grab Kronk’s cock and squeeze it, making him growl before I step back. All of their horns are dark, all of their eyes midnight black.
“The best body?” I ask again, and they nod.
“Little one,” Kronk warns, impatient for my answer, my competitive mates.
“That’s easy...me.” I grin.
Vrid erupts in laughter and Ryx joins in, his eyes running down my body. “She isn’t wrong.”
Xal shakes his head, smiling at me happily, and when I look at Kronk, I see him starting towards me. “Better run, little one.”
My eyes fly wide and I squeal as I duck under his reaching hands, knowing he’s only playing and could catch me if he wanted. I race around the sofa, laughing as he chases after me. Vrid is waiting at the other end, so I drop to the floor and slide between his legs.
Ryx leaps over the other side and tries to grab me, but I spin away from him and right into Xal’s arms, who laughs and lifts me up. “I’ve caught our mate! Now, what shall we do with her?” he teases. I can’t stop laughing, my smile so big it hurts my face. My heart clenches, so completely filled with love for my crazy, kinky aliens.
“Dirty, naughty things,” I tease, making them all groan and growl.
“Vekk yes!” Ryx yells, as they all start towards me, my breathing picking up as I try to imagine what they will do to me now, but then a boom sounds, shaking the house. Another follows it as our heads jerk around, trying to find the source. It comes again, and I realise it’s a knock...at our door?
I look at Kronk who’s frowning. He hurries over and opens it to reveal a panicked-looking red alien with huge wings.
I recognise him immediately as Trov, one of Shiloh’s mates. He sidesteps Kronk and rushes inside our home, gazing around frantically. The rest of Klan Avuk hurries in behind him, a sense of urgency filling the air.
“What’s wrong? Is it the Yarek?” Kronk snaps, his hands already filled with weapons. Xal drops me and pushes me behind him. Vrid and Ryx step up next to him, ready to protect me with their lives
“Is she here?” one of them asks, I can’t see who.
“Shiloh?” I call, confused. “No. Why would she be?”
A roar comes and something smashes. I wiggle between my mates so I can see what’s going on. “She’s gone!” Trov bellows, his deep voice rattling the windows.
“What?” I question, the floor dropping from beneath me.
Cryk turns to us, his face set in a mask of worry and panic. “Shiloh, she’s gone. Someone has taken her.”
I gasp, my heart clenching. No, no, no. I shake my head and step forward, ignoring my mates. “Who? When? Was it the Drykken, the Yarek?” I snap, and when they don’t answer, I get right in their faces. “Who took her?” I yell.
Trov growls at me, stepping closer, towering over me. Kronk grabs me and pulls me back into his chest. “We don’t know,” he grinds out, his jaw gnashing. “But we will. And when we find them, we will kill them all.”
I don’t even hesitate. “Then we’re helping.” I hold up my hand to stop any protests. “Shiloh is my friend, my family. I’m helping,” I snarl. With anger raging inside me, I turn to my mates. “Looks like baby making is on hold indefinitely. We have a hunt to do and people to kill. Get the weapons ready, boys, we’re going to rip this world apart.”
They burst into movement, but I’m stuck in the same spot, filled with worry. Shiloh...vekk, please be okay.
We are coming for you.
