Page 110 of Sire

I nod, imagining their world, realizing ours is similar, yet not.

The kings and queens are open for initiations and tests. It’s our bond. We’ll need it to survive. Otherwise, each couple is different.

I can’t imagine Nash or Axel will ever share their women. Only for initiations. Only if they get to punch their brothers afterward.

Loch has fulfilled his duty as a second king to Delphine. Now, he said he’s vowed to Alena—no one else. And Alena doesn’t need to be initiated. She’s the daughter of a king and part of the family.

Jace? He breaks my heart. He’s like one of Dolly’s sadcountry songs. He will always love someone, but who is she? I sense he’s lonely without her.

Nick and Zar apparently serve a Dom and his wife. Sire said there’s a whole hot story there.

While Delphine told me that Grant’s okay with her being with other women at Nadine’s club. Often, Delphine shares him. After she was bought and sold in a French brothel, Delphine insists on her freedom, and I’ve never heard Grant complain.

But me and Sire?

What will we be?

Always together, yes. But what about…

“Buuttt,”Eily coos. “This is Redix and Cade’s birthday weekend, and Silas has always found our pastor to be very hot and…”

With her big, jade eyes, she pauses, searching mine.

I blurt, “And?”

“And,” she laughs, “we don’t want to make it weird and freak anyone out.”

If she only knew.

“You can’t freak me out. I’ve been through hell and back. Nothing shocks me.”

“Shocks? I believe you. But shook?” She drifts closer. “How shook would you be if I told you that Redix, Daniel,andSilas want your husband tonight?”

No one should be allowed to feel this excited.

And horny.

I wink. “I wouldn’t be shook; I’d be right. I knew it.”

“Really?” Eily’s cute face lights up. “They want the breeding kink. Let’s be clear.”

“It’s crystal clear,” I chuckle. “And I want it for Sire. But what about you? What do you want?”

Eily lowers her brows. “Honestly? So many times, I feared Silas and I would burst into flames in Pastor Rutledge’schurch because, my dear Lord, look at the man. God ate and left no crumbs with him.”

I just made a best friend for life.

I went from having no one to having so many people, so much love. I want to pinch myself.

“Letmebe clear.” I smile. “My husband wants to share his crumbs with the men. But with women? No, he’s all mine. And unprotected sex? Never. He likes the breeding power and role-play, but not the risk.”

Eily nods, impressed. “I get it. We all have boundaries. Like, I’m not open right now. I don’t feel like it. Hell, I might barf any second. But I want Silas to have fun. He’s always had a thing for Pastor Rutledge.”

Heat blooms between my wet thighs. “And I have a fantasy…”

“Which is?”

I feel like I can tell Eily anything. “I’m a hypocrite, I know. I’m too jealous to share my husband with women, but I want to share a man with him. I want to share Silas with him. Not fuck him. Just, you know?—”
