“Have a good day, daddy Kier,” I teased, hips swaying as I left him screaming on the ground. His alchemy didn’t allow him to use it without two hands, so he was stuck for a bit.

I moved into the kitchen, unable to hear him scream.

“Good morning,” Abel said to me, hand reaching for my hip. “What has you in all smiles?”

I didn’t bother sharing my secret as I slanted my mouth over his. My body was on fire in need of some release. After Cozen rejected me and Kier and I dry humped, I was in serious need of getting dicked down.

“Where’s my brother?” Osiris asked, settling on a chair next to Briar.

Briar barely looked up from his computer, but when he did, a small smirk played on the corner of his lips. Beck must of noticed because his eyes darted back and forth between us.

“Where’s Kier?” Osiris asked again, eyes locked on me.

“Oh, he’s a bit tied up. Busy in the gym,” I explained.

His dark brows pulled as he looked down at me.

Abel’s hand grabbed my hips and pulled me into his lap. I let him, slanting my arms around his wide shoulders.

“Are you hungry?” I questioned him, noting his lust-filled gaze.

“Very,” he muttered, eyes racking over my body.

“I can cook breakfast.” I stood from his lap, just to get pulled back.

“Or… I could eat you for breakfast.”

Beck scoffed. “I’d like some food, Abel!”

“Oh, you don’t want me?” I fired back.

He chuckled. “Trust me, I do, but I’m craving bacon, and we both know men are too stupid to cook it as perfectly as you do.”

I rolled my eyes, standing from Abel’s lap. “I’ll cook if you clean up.”

“Gladly,” Beck agreed, and I got to work.

Osiris and Briar were talking about the explosions, reminding me of Kennedy. She was a girl that I met at the academy, and one moment she was funny, giggly, and lovely, the next she was ignoring me and Father Nero, moving to the front gate like a zombie. She exploded like a fucking bomb, and it opened the gate, exposing the whole academy to vampires.

A lot of questions were unanswered. Who did this? How? How did the vampires get into Evercrest, a wall community since the Revelations? What do those markings mean and how do they get people to explode?

Kennedy wasn’t the first one to explode. During an investigation for another human combustion, one exploded in front of Briar, burning him. It wasn’t long ago, but the scarring has healed.

“What happened to you?” Osiris’s voice made me snap to reality.

I glanced over to see Kier covered in dust and debris and holding the concrete cuffs that I had made to hold him down.

Kier growled to me, and just as he was about to get to me, I held out a plate of food. His dark eyes dropped, taking the delicious French toast I made.

“Truce?” I bargained.

He sighed, taking the plate. “You’re lucky I love French toast.”

I waved him away as I got the rest of their plates and served them. Finally, I sat with my men, enjoying all the praise they gave for my food.

“Guess we can keep her around,” Briar said, munching on bacon.

I rolled my eyes at him as if he didn’t fill me with his cum this morning.
