I have no idea how he does it, but it always intensifies my pleasure when he pushes down at the top of my pelvis. Maybe it's the feeling of being trapped under his strong hold? But I don't think so.

I think Vik is just pure big-dick magic. His big dick energy is so potent it apparently transfers to his magic hands. I giggle as I come down from my orgasm.

I think I'm dick drunk. Or cum wasted. Hell, I've got no clue. I just know I'm really freaking ecstatic I ended up where I did. I can't even imagine life without my guys.

Rafe heads down to talk to the owners of the lodge and meet with Reynolds and his wife. Apparently, they own the house we stayed in and they definitely need to be updated on what happened there. Luckily, there was no blood inside or damage to the house, so hopefully they won't be too upset.

Vik and I get Wolfe settled into his bed. He needs some solid rest. I shouldn't even have fucked him, but in my defense… the fog got me. It wasn't even a thought in my mind.

Vik carries me to his bathroom and starts the shower.

"Do you think you could leave so I could clean up?" I ask, but I already know it's futile.

Vik scoffs. His long, thick cock sways as he turns to face me. I roll my eyes and drop down on the toilet with very little modesty.

"Could you grab me a hair tie?" I ask, fluttering my eyelashes at him.

"You're cute," Vik says, shaking his head. "I know what you're doing, but I'll give it to you this time." He heads out into his bedroom to grab one. I pee as fast as humanly possible, and I'm just finishing cleaning up when he comes back in. I flush and head to wash my hands as he frames my back. He tenderly pulls up my mass of blonde hair before I'm even done washing my hands. I don't bother drying them as he guides me over to the shower and helps me inside.

He looks so despondent. It's absolutely killing me.

"What's bothering you?" I ask as he soaps up my back and ass.

Vik shudders out a breath. "Soren and Keeley are dead. Steele and Merrick aren't in great shape, but they'll live."

"What?" I hiss. My stomach drops. I spin around to face him. "Are you sure?"

He gives a nod. "I spoke to Merrick…"

"Ohmigod, Vik. I'm so sorry…"

Vik's jaw is tighter than I've ever seen it. "It is what it is," he says, rubbing his cheek against mine. "That type of lifestyle always catches up."

I bite my cheek, but the tears still fall. Maybe Soren I could understand because he's been a part of that violent mafia world… But Keeley? God, she seemed so soft and gentle.

"I'm sorry," I say, shaking my head and looking at the ceiling.

"Me, too, princess," Vik agrees. "Me, too."

I rub my hand over the back of his neck as he holds me close to his chest. Eventually I get my shit together and take care of my alpha. He needs me right now.

I pour my appreciation for having him through the bond as I soap him up. The shower isn't sexual in the least, but it feels more intimate than all the rest. I love being able to give him some of the comfort that he always so freely gives me.

Vik chuckles. "You're sure taking good care of me, princess," he murmurs as I stretch an arm out to grab a towel. He grabs my wrist, pulling me into him.

I stare up into his eyes as he wraps the towel I grabbed around me.

"We take care of each other," I whisper, stretching on my tiptoes to kiss his cheek.

The next few weeks are extremely tough on all of us. Our pack comes together to support Vik. He's growly and grumbles a lot, but I know he appreciates the guys' support.

The police complete their investigation. It's several more rounds of questioning, but to be honest, they don't push too hard. The guys pay to have the Reynolds house cleaned.

There's a brief discussion about possibly buying it, but there aren't very good memories there. I mean there are… Bonding with my guys will always be a precious memory, but thinking about Soren and Keeley and even Dimitri's death, it just doesn't feel right.

Evie demands we be given time off to attend Soren's funeral. Her guys complain a bit since we've all been extremely unreliable as far as our jobs go, but Evie is quick to point out that life will go back to normal after we get back.

The thought of being back in New York is intimidating. I have to remind myself that all my monsters are dead and buried.
