But he didn’t.
Duke gripped Nat’s hips and slammed in several times, like he was trying to breed Nat.
Nat came again, clenching, only for Duke to snarl and give a final thrust.
Warmth flooded Nat inside. Something swelled at the base of Duke’s cock—two somethings. A larger round knot right at Duke’s base, and a smaller one just above it. They pressed against Nat’s inner walls, hot and soothing andright.
He’s breeding me,Nat’s come-drunk brain said.I want him to breed me again.
Duke rocked his knots against Nat’s prostate, coaxing a final, shuddering release out of him.
“Sleep now,” Duke said in his ear. “I’ll stop moving.”
“Mm.” Nat’s eyelids drooped. He was out like a light.

Nat wokeup with his eyes feeling like sandpaper. At first, he couldn’t tell what had disrupted his sleep.
Everything was comfortable; the sheets were silky-smooth, and the covers were just the right amount of warm.
Something moved behind—and inside—him.
“Nat?” Duke murmured.
His tone sounded just a little off, so Nat turned. “Hmm?”
“Wanda—Have her eyes always been like that?”

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, IT EXPIRED?
“Um. What?”Nat squinted at the crib next to the bed.
Wanda was awake. She had sat up and was babbling to herself, except her eyes—
Her eyes were glowing white.
Nat sat bolt upright, his heart thundering in his chest.
Duke wasn’t supposed to find out like this.
Hell, Nat hadn’t thought this far ahead. He had assumed that he would have more time before Duke learned about Wanda’s other species.
What if Duke decided to fire him? He’d only had his job forone day.
“Nat?” Duke murmured.
“Um?” Nat shuffled between Wanda and Duke, Duke’s cock slipping out of him. Then he realized that Duke’s entire body was a deep red, his horns visible on his forehead.
“Why are you not—Your glamour,” Nat said weakly.
Duke gave him a flat look. “I can be myself in my own bed, Nat.”
This had to be why Wanda’s eyes were glowing.
Crap.
