Screw My Childhood Sweetheart—His Alpha Brother Marked Me First!

I tilted my face up to Caspian . " How do we do this ? " He brushed the hair away from my face . " We talk . We're honest . " He pressed his lips to my temple . " We're going to mess up . Every single one of us . We just need to do what we can to repair the hurt when it happens . Try to not make the same mistake twice . " " Knox's trying to repair the hurt . " " He is . He asked his father to move Jasmine and Coby out of the lodge . " My eyes flared . " He did ? " " Yup . They weren't thrilled about it , but Mason did it anyway . " " Great , just another reason for Jaz to hate me .

" Caspian's hand trailed down my back to my hip . " I really do think she'll get over it , Knox has been pretty damn clear with her the past few days . " I hated the way my stomach twisted at his words , the knowledge that Jaz had been alone with Knox any number of times while I'd been unconscious . " My one and only boyfriend cheated on me after Lacey died . " Caspian reared back . " What ? " " I guess he got tired of what a downer I was being . He didn't even bother breaking up with me . One day I showed up to school , and he was with another girl.

Apparently , it had been going on for weeks . He'd lied so many times about studying or needing to help his mom . Really , he'd just been screwing someone else . " " I'm so sorry , Ro . He's an idiot . " I made a scoffing sound . " He's definitely that . I was already hurting so much , I missed Lace , my family was falling apart . I was supposed to be able to lean on him and he just disappeared . It hurt more than I realized , I guess . " " And stuff with Knox brings back those memories . " " It's not fair . I know that . Knox pushed her away. It's the little lies that hurt the most .

They make me scared that he'll leave too , one day . " Caspian traced a nonsensical design on my hip . " He's not going to leave . He's not going to betray you . I know it'll take time , but you'll see it eventually . " I wanted Caspian to be right . I wanted to trust Knox , to believe that he wanted me above all others , but that ground felt incredibly shaky . " How are you feeling ? " Caspian asked as his gaze swept over my face . 20:22 Screw My Childhood Sweetheart - His Alpha Brother Marked Mo First ! 25.004 Chapter 85 " Better . " I'd showered and changed into a fresh pair of pajamas .

My muscles no longer ached as if I'd been through a washing machine's spin cycle . I reached up , tracing the dark circles under his eyes . " How about you? " " I'm good . " I pinned him with a stare . Caspian chuckled . " A little tired , but feeling so much better now that you're awake . You scared the hell out of me . Out of all of us . " " I'm sorry . " " It's not your fault . " " I know that , but I'm still sorry you went through it . " He leaned forward , brushing his lips against mine . " Just assuring myself you're real . " I grinned against his mouth . " Definitely real .

" I deepened the kiss , something lighting deep inside me as Caspian's tongue stroked mine . His hand tightened on my hip . drawing me closer . He hardened against me , the contact sending sparks of sensation dancing across my skin . A phone dinged . We ignored it . Caspian rolled me to my back , his hand slipping beneath my shirt . The phone started ringing . Caspian muttered a curse and pulled the device from his pocket . " What ? " He squeezed his eyes closed , as if fighting back the words he wanted to let fly . " Yes , you can come in .

" He tapped a button on the screen and rolled to his back . " Anson is such a fucking cock block . " I couldn't help it , I burst out laughing . After all the heaviness of the past few weeks , it felt more than good . Not as good as alone time with Caspian would've felt , but close . I woke to a familiar heat , One that made me feel safe , cocooned , I blinked a few times and River ' face came into focus . It was relaxed in sleep , but I could feel that soothing energy flowing from him , reaching out for me even in unconsciousness . A hand tightened on my hip and Caspian growled .

" Anson , if that's your dick I feel against my ass , we're gonna have words . " Anson mumbled something unintelligible and then rolled to his back . " Morning wood isn't my fault . " Caspian cursed . " We need a bigger bed . " " We need many bigger beds , " River muttered , leaning forward to kiss my forehead . " I don't know . I kind of like small beds . " I gave River a quick peck . " Makes for good cuddling . " " For you , maybe , " Caspian said . " I get stuck with Anson dry humping my back . " Anson pulled the pillow from behind his head and thwacked Caspian with it .

" You should've switched places with me last 20:22 Screw My Childhood Sweetheart - His Alpha Brother Marked Me First ! 75.3 % Chapter RS night , then I'd be dry humping Ro . " He sent me a devilish grin . " Or doing something else . " My cheeks heated . A knock sounded on the door , and River called for whoever it was to come in . The door opened slowly , and Knox's tall frame filled the entryway . The longing in his eyes was a sucker punch to my stomach . " Hey , Breakfast's almost ready , and my dad wants to talk to us .
