Big Brother

Alexander’s POV

The intensive lovemaking had left us collapsed on our sides and locked together. I was enjoying the feeling of our bodies being entwined like this.

Gods above, I was so in love with Cassidy that he seemed to glow for a moment under the moonlight.

“You’re all glowing,” I giggled. In my defence, I was sex drunk.

Cassidy laughed tiredly. “Afterglow, silly,”

“Mm,” I kissed his nape. “I love you.”

He made a pleased noise. “I love you too,” he said, before he fell asleep.

My mate was all tired out. I allowed myself a second of smugness before I, too, fell into unconsciousness.

We were invited to dine with Duke Kellen the next day. Queen Tasha had other matters to see to and we had no real reason to refuse his request.

Surprisingly, it wasn’t just the three of us that Cass and I had expected. Prince Colin was also in attendance, still looking like a sullen teenager, but also curious at the two newcomers in his home.
