Merrin’s POV The noise started before the moon had even climbed high. My chamber walls shook with their voices, three women clawing for a night in my bed. “Because I’m the youngest,” Lady Mirella shrieked, “and the most beautiful!

You think our husband wants a girl who can’t even handle his d!ck, let alone satisfy him?” Mirella bristled, her cheeks burning red. “At least I’m not a dried-up old hag like you, Emily. Alpha wants someone who can keep up with him, not someone who needs a nap after a quick fvck.” I couldn’t help but smirk. Their petty squabbles had become a twisted kind of entertainment
