she arrived since?” His voice cuts through my excitement.
“Is that a dog bed?” I ask. I don’t remember seeing it when I walked in. The dog is curled up in the thing. It’s big and furry and looks like it cost a ton of money. “Did you buy that for the dog?”
“Answer The question!” His eyes are blazing.
“Yes. Your dog—”
“Not mine!” he growls.
“The dog was here at your front door when we—”
He curses. “Really?” he says to the dog. “We spoke about this. I don’t want a dog.” He sighs. “I can’t have a dog. You need someone else. Not me,” he says to the poor creature. She wags her tail.
He goes to the open closet. I’m pretty sure I remember the closet being closed. I could be mistaken. My mind was on other things at the time. Rage takes out a lead and a collar. I note with interest that the collar sparkles. I keep my mouth firmly shut. He puts on the collar and then clips on the lead. “I’ll be back. Clean up!” he growls the last.
“There are no dishes.”
He frowns at me. “I’m talking about the condoms. And that throw. And while you’re at it, burn that sofa…or take it. I don’t care which.” He turns and leaves.
I see that Raven is awake. She’s clutching the throw to her chest. “Hi,” she whispers.
I feel everything in me soften. “Hi,” I say. I know at this moment that we’re going to be okay. More than fucking okay.

Excerpt
Chapter 1
It had been many years since he had been in such close proximity of his birth enemy. Zane looked as arrogant and as full of shit as ever. Barking orders at his royal guard like they were his servants instead of trusted subjects. In some cases, those receiving the harsh treatment were probably his best buddies. Then again, the bastard probably didn’t have any friends. Shaking his head, Brant turned and surveyed the crowd. He felt sorry
