Chapter Twenty

Rylee

“I can’t believe we’re even fucking considering this,” Drace growled, once we were installed in a large, richly decorated bedroom with the door shut firmly behind us and Mandrex on the other side.

“Oh? And you have a better idea for getting the Key?” Lucian snapped. “By all means, please share it.”

“Stop it, you two,” I said, before Drace could growl back. “This is the only way to get the Key and we all know it.”

They both looked at me in surprise.

“And…you’re willing to do this?” Lucian asked. “Despite our contract?”

“I swore I’d stick by both of you until the bitter end,” I said grimly. “Until you’re separated. But right now, the two of you need to get a little closer together.”

“I’m not getting close to him,” Drace snarled.

“I feel the same,” Lucian said coldly.

“Well then it looks like the two of you are going to be stuck together forever. Because I’m not doing a damn thing to help you get that Key until the two of you make up and promise to play nice together.”

I went over to the bed—a vast, round mattress as big as a small stage—and sat on the edge, my arms crossed over my chest. My low cut gown pulled down at the gesture, pushing my breasts up in two swells.

I could feel both sets of eyes—the green and the blue—on my breasts and my body under the tight, sexy gown. I could almost hear them weighing their options. On one hand, they needed the Key. On the other, they were still super pissed off at each other.

But there was a third factor at play here. They wanted me—wanted to share me—badly. I sat up a little straighter, letting the red gown pull lower until the dark circles of my areolas were just visible above the low-cut neckline. My heart was racing but I tried to keep my face calm.

“Come on, guys,” I said, a little more gently. “Don’t let your wounded pride keep you from getting what you need. That’s foolish.”

Lucian melted first. Turning to Drace he spoke in a low voice.

“Forgive me for treating you as I would a Beta,” he said, looking the other man in the eye. “It wasn’t my intention to denigrate you—I only wanted to save your life as you had saved mine and there was no other way.”

For a moment Drace just stood there, scowling.

“Drace,” I prompted gently. “Come on—accept his apology. This anger is just eating you up inside, honey. Let go of it.”

“I…” Drace took a deep breath. “I forgive you,” he said at last, the words halting and choked. “I know you were only trying to save me.”

“I’ll never do it again—treat you like a Beta, I mean,” Lucian promised swiftly. “I…do not like to be at odds with you. I miss the harmony we found when Rylee joined us.”

“I miss it too,” Drace admitted in a rough voice. “A fucking lot.”

“Good—this is good!” I exclaimed, sitting up straighter. There was still some resistance between them—I could feel it.
