After a few hours of sleep, I wake up to find Niko and Mason’s belies pressed against me, but King is nowhere to be found. For a moment, I wonder if he had a job or something, but I’m sure he would’ve woken me up to tell me before he left.
I slip out of bed and check on Zuri, my feet light on the floor as move through the quiet house. After a quick trip to the bathroom. I head downstairs. The low glow of the lamp in the living room casts long shadows. That’s when I see him–King His tall, solid silhouette sits in his chair, a drink in hand. By the tension in his posture, I can tell that something’s wrong.
Wrapping my silk black robe tighter around me, I cross the root silently and sink into his lap. My arms slip around his neck, and I bury my face in the warmth of his neck, inhaling the scent of him.
He hums softly, the low, gravelly rumble of his voice breaking the silence. “What are you doing awake, kitten?”
I let my fingers trace the curve of his jaw, the roughness of his beard beneath my fingertips. “Looking for you, I murmur. “Why aren’t you in bed?”
He pulls me closer, allowing me to adjust myself so I’m not sitting directly on my bruised behind. “Got the urge to get my hands dirty, he grits out, his voice strained. “But I can’t.”
I don’t need to ask what he means. Of course, I know. He wants to kill Isaac, but there are too many fucking barriers in the way now. The frustration radiates off him, and I can feel it through his touch, like he’s trying to keep a lid on the storm inside.
Worry gnaws at me. What if he never sleeps again until this is finished?
That could be a long fucking time, and he’s a very stubborn man.
“Come to bed,” I suggest softly. “You need sleep
A warm chuckle vibrates through his chest. “I’ll be fine, but you sound high right now. That punishment really did you some good, huh?”
He’s right, it did. I don’t know what the hell happened during that spanking, but the weight of everything came crashing down on me all at once toward the end. I started sobbing like a damn baby, and after that, each strike of King’s hand made me feel lighter. It was almost like some kind of rebirth, and the ache in my ass now is a reminder of how much they care about me–how much they love me.
I didn’t think I’d ever enjoy being hit, but King, Niko, and Mason–they made it feel like I was being freed, not broken. Isaac always hit to keep me small, to keep me powerless. But with them, it’s about trust and willingly submitting. Even with my behind
sore I can hardly sit, there’s a part of me that craves more.
“Do you think we could do it again sometime?” I ask, my voice muffled against his skin.
“Anytime, baby girl,” he murmurs, his lips brushing my forehead All you gotta do is ask.”
I smile, satisfied by that answer, but then it drops right off my face when I think back to what Isaac said earlier.
I pull back slightly, just enough to meet his gaze. “Why didn’t I know your real name until today?” I ask, the question slipping out before I can stop it. “Isaac said it, and it…it shocked me. It’s something I should’ve known about you, but I didn’t*
Like what else don’t I know about him?
kicked me
King doesn’t flinch, just takes a slow sip of his drink, his eyes never leaving mine. “Kaiden died the night my mom out. When I found Jax, I told him I wanted a new name, a new identity” His voice is even, but I see the flicker of pain in his eyes. His jaw tics as he takes another swallow. “I no longer wanted to be the violent fuck–up from the trailer park with the

crackwhore mom And after! changed my name, I figured she’d think I was dead. It’s not like I ever wanted to see her again anyway. She’d just beg me for money for drugs.
I swallow back the emotion building in my throat. It makes sense, in a way. If I had a terrible mother like he did, I wouldn’t want her finding me either. But it just breaks my heart that he fet the need to completely reinvent himself.
You were upset about that?” King asks curiously, his tone softening
“Yes, I admit, biting my lip. “We’re having a baby together, King Isaac saw the look on my face, that I didn’t know. And it probably made me look fucking stupid–like I didn’t really know you, that you were dangerous and unpredictable. It fit his
narrative.
He inhales deeply, steading himself as his hand caresses my stomach. “You know everything that matters, kitten. I didn’t hide shit from you. Kaiden? That name belongs to who I used to be.”
I lean back into him, his words settling my anxiety. To be hones I think King fits you better anyway.”
I can’t imagine ever having to moan “Kaiden“, though I’m starting to like calling him “Daddy” more than anything. Maybe it’s my daddy issues, but no matter how fucked up it is, I love it–and it’s obvious he does too.
“I’m surprised you never questioned it before,” King murmurs, amusement lacing his voice.
I giggle. “I don’t know. I just thought maybe your mom just wanted you to have an enormous ego, and if that were the case, I’d say she succeeded”
“Is that right?” His lips curl into something dangerous as he lowers his hand to cup my pussy. His touch sends sparks up my spine. “You don’t seem to mind it when you’re trembling under me or when my big dick is spreading you open.”
My breath hitches, his words setting me on fire. “Um, no. No I don’t mind.”
He chuckles lightly. “Yeah, I know.”
Cocky bastard.
I can feel the large bulge of him against my ass, but he doesn’t do anything about it. He just holds me closer, the heat of his body enveloping me like a blanket. It’s comforting, familiar. And don’t want to ever let it go.
“King?”
He hums, his hand moving back to my swollen stomach. “What
“Do you
think you guys could hold off on the whole doctor thing for a few days? I’ll feel more comfortable once my ass
heals.
A small smile twitches on his lips. “Talk to Niko, I’m sure he can be easily convinced. His tone grows more serious as he searches my
face. “What are you so afraid of, kitten? I can tell It’s more than just Isaac.
I swallow hard, my chest tightening. “I just…I don’t want to get attached. Something bad could happen again.”
His hand stays on my belly, as if he’s trying to anchor me to him “We fucked up today, letting you face him alone. That won’t happen again, alright? You’ll always have one of us with you from now on. Isaac will never hurt you or our baby”
Tears blur my vision as I squeeze my eyes shut. “But what if something goes wrong again? What if I lose this baby too?” I ask in a shaky whisper, my fears rising to the surface.
I can’t lose another baby. I just fucking can’t.
That was the worst pain, mentally and physically, that I’ve ever been through.

“Look at me,” King demands, I open my eyes, meeting his intens gaze. “We won’t know if you don’t get checked out. And if there’s something wrong, I’ll do everything in my fucking power to get you the best possible care money can buy.”
As I look into his eyes, his conviction feels like a physical force. there’s anything I learned tonight, it’s to trust him. Trust them. So I will
1 sniffle. “O–Okay. I’ll go as soon as I heal.”
I don’t want a big–ass wand inside me when I can’t even sit down comfortably anyway.
“Good girl. We’ll set up an appointment for next week then.
“W–Will all of you be going?” I stammer.
He arches a brow. “Is that a problem?”
“Uh, yes. How the hell am I going to explain our situation to the doctor?”
It’s not like I can say Niko and Mason are our family members or friends just perfectly fine with seeing my vagina.
His response is steady, unbothered. “Where we’re going, they’ve seen everything. Trust me, our relationship will look tame.”
what isn’t considered tame My face contorts. Do I even want to know
“C’mon, let’s get you back to bed,” King murmurs suddenly. “Marina will be here at six, and you’re cranky as hell when you haven’t had enough rest.”
Oh, right. Her. Maybe I should ask him if they slept together, but I’ve questioned him enough tonight. And really, I shouldn’t care if they did. Any other woman is his past. I’m his present and future. There’s no need to feel jealous over any of his past flings or whatever.
Even if she’s everything I’m not.
I quickly shake the thought away before it seeps in too deep. “You’re coming with me, right?” I ask him.
King flashes me a small smirk. “Whatever my queen wants.”
As I slide out of his lap, I grab his hand, intertwining our fingers as I lead him upstairs and back to bed where I hope I’ll actually be able to get him to sleep.
