Their Secret Obsession (A Reverse Harem) by Pippa Moon novel Chapter 148

Kane POV

The wave of satisfaction that swept through me, seeing the look of confusion on Anthonys' face, was worth breaking my silence. Charlotte was seemingly right, though; they, too, thought I was dead.

"Fuck it, they won't be leaving this room anyway!" Rolo barked out, his voice bitter and riddled with jealousy. I got it, though; I wasn't sure how to feel about the relationship Charlotte had formed with the Sparrow brothers.

"I know how we feel about it!" Rolo grunted, my eyes rolling internally at him as he let out a huff and slid to the back of my mind to observe like the love-sick pup he was.

"What do you wanna do, brother?" Knox asked, turning to face me, although I could see from the way Charlotte squirmed his hand remained tightly wrapped around her. I watched her look up at Knox, those big blue eyes I bloody adored glossed over as she plunged into conversation with Sage.

"She needs to leave! The brothers won't respect us if we allow her to dictate shit to us, and you know Chase well enough to know he won't give us any information until she has left." Knox's jaw tightened, and although he never replied, I knew he agreed.

"Angel.." He started to say, pulling her from her conversation with Sage. My eyes drifted to Liam, who was watching my brother and our mate with intrigue that made me nervous. Adam was busy shoving what looked like a homemade gag in her father's mouth while Chase sat on Mike's knee like a hooker on a date.

The fucker was beautiful but bat shit crazy!

"No, don't you use that shit on me. We said no more secrets!" Charlotte whined, her eyes shifting from Knox to me; her lips pulled so tightly together that she looked feral. Reminding me of when Knox slapped her ass so hard she bruised instantly.

"Come on, mate, like I would watch her! She is your fucking mate! Unlike you, I don't take other people's toys!" He groaned dramatically; I smiled, seeing the blush spread across my brother's cheeks, understanding the reference and given the look on Charlotte's face, she would be asking what he was on about the first opportunity she got.

And the bastard knew that!

"Super glad you aren't dead, Kane! Be a shame to lose such a cheerful, friendly teddy bear like you." Chase added with a wink to Knox, who nodded his head and reluctantly let our mate go. Chase outstretched his hand for Charlotte, her eyes drifting down to it; I knew she was debating her options. We all waited with bated breath to see if she would go with Chase or dig her heels in and make one of us remove her.

With a sigh, I felt her relent and let out the breath I was holding, her hand reaching out to take Chase's, but Knox was quicker. Knox's large hand wrapped around Chae's elbow, pulling him to stare at him.
