"What's wrong, kitten? Am I getting you riled up?" he asks teasingly. I turn away from him, hoping he won't see how much he's pissing me off.He knows I hate that fucking nickname, but he hasn't stopped calling me that since we were little."I told you to stop calling me that," I murmur, trying to keep my voice steady."And I told you that I would never stop calling you that."I grind my molars, feeling my frustration rise.

“Wait, what? I’ll have a mate?”Dad chuckled nervously, “Uh yeah, I should explain that too. After you turn eighteen, you’ll be able to tell who the Moon Goddess chose for you when you see them.

"What's your name, princess?"Princess. It sent a shiver down my spine, and my entire body seemed to catch fire. "Angelique," I managed to respond in a hushed tone, uncertain if he caught my name amid the chaotic beating of my heart."Angelique," he purred, his voice a sensuous melody, "a perfect name for someone as enchantingly beautiful as you are."My name rolled off his tongue like velvet, each syllable caressing the air. Holy shit, was it hot in here, or was it ju...

"What about you? You know you can't just drink your troubles away.""Hey, don't judge me! I've had a crappy week," I scowl back at him defensively.Betrayed by a boyfriend and fired by the company.Worry clouds in his eyes, but it's gone in a blink of an eye, replaced by a mask of indifference.Suddenly, I fall out of the barstool, and strong arms swiftly wrap around my waist, stopping me from embarrassing myself further.

"Twins? I'm pregnant with twins?""Hang on," she murmurs, her fingers dancing over the controls. The monitor flickers, and then she turns it around so we can all see, her eyes meeting mine. "There are two heartbeats."I blink at her, choking on air. "What the hell did you just say?"
