Synopsis:
Sometimes
happily ever after isn’t all it’s cracked up to be…
Theo
Fitzcharles thought he’d put the worst behind him when he became
King of Thalania and named his two lovers, Meg Sanders and Galen
Mikos, as his Consorts. Unfortunately, the realities of running a
country have worn on all of them, individually and as a triad. Theo
has every intention of making things right, but first he has to deal
with an old enemy who’s closer than anyone could have dreamed.
Meg
Sanders never wanted to be a princess. Now that she’s one of two
Consorts to the King of Thalania, she knows why—it’s work.
Every time she turns around, she’s misstepping and struggling not
to screw up the careful political maneuvering required for her new
position. But her struggles with the new position are the least of
her worries she’s attacked in the palace.
Theo,
Galen, and Meg must race to identify her attacker and neutralize them
before they can make another attempt to hurt her. There’s plenty of
people who want Meg out of the palace—and at least one isn’t
picky about whether she’s breathing or not when she goes.

Ever After Excerpt

Theo opened his eyes to see his best friend, his lover, his Consort,
standing over him. Galen looked as tired and worn out as Theo felt,
though where Theo had lost weight, Galen had gained muscle. No
telling where he found the time to work out, but the evidence was in
the way his T-shirt stretched tight across his shoulders and chest
and the clear definition in his legs. He couldn’t even appreciate
the new changes for fear of what they indicated. Are we going to
war, Galen?
Some days it certainly felt like it.
He finished up his set slowly, drawing in the burning of his muscles
as he strained against the weight of the bench press. In this moment,
he was perfectly present. It wouldn’t last. It never lasted. But he
had right now, and it would have to be able to shore him up for the
coming conversation.
Theo wiped his face with his towel and stood. “Okay, I’m done.
What’s wrong?”
“Would you like a list?”
Fuck, something was wrong. Theo glanced at the door to the
gym, instinctively looking for the audience they had for most of
their waking hours. The door remained closed, which didn’t mean no
one was listening, but it lessened the likelihood. Even with the
cameras blinking in the corners of the room, they were as close to
alone as they were likely to get. “Galen, talk to me.”
“Not tonight. Not like this.” Galen started for the door. “Meg
had a hard day, Theo. We all did.” Subtle comment, less subtle
bite. If he concentrated, Theo could almost see things unraveling
around him. He’d known life wouldn’t be simple once he retook the
throne, but the freedom of exile had gone to his head and he’d
forgotten just how easy it could be to drown in this world.
It sure as hell seemed like all three of them were a few short
breaths from doing exactly that.
Drowning.
And he didn’t know how to fix it.
This wasn’t the time or place to get into it. Darkness had fallen
while Theo was preoccupied, and most of the palace staff had gone
home. It didn’t leave the halls empty—they were never empty—but
there were fewer people to bow and murmur greetings as he and Galen
stalked toward their private suite. Theo managed to nod in response,
but he schooled his expression to discourage actual conversation. In
his current mood, he couldn’t guarantee what he’d say if someone
tried to stop him now.
They slammed into their suite and Theo grabbed Galen’s arm before
he had a chance to leave the sitting room. “What’s going on?”
“No. Fuck that. You don’t get to play the concerned partner now.”
Galen shot a look toward the main rooms and lowered his voice. “You
got what you wanted, Theo. You got your cake and you’re eating it,
too. The first King of Thalania in history to name two Consorts.
Congratu-fucking-lations.”
Theo rocked back on his heels. This conversation had been a long time
in coming, and even knowing it bore down on him with all the subtly
of a runaway train, he still wasn’t prepared. “You knew—”
“No. I don’t need to hear that I went into this with eyes wide
open. I know I fucking did.” Galen dragged a hand over his face.
“Meg has three months before school starts up again. She’s
fucking miserable, Theo. She puts on a brave face for you, but
underneath she’s messed up.”
And what about you?
Theo didn’t voice the words lodged in his throat. He’d learned a
long time ago not to ask questions he might not want answers to, and
this numbered among them. He didn’t point out that he’d given
both Galen and Meg a chance to leave six months ago, and he sure as
hell didn’t point out that they could leave now if they were so
inclined. He might be an ass sometimes, but not about this.
Not when they’d already sacrificed so much.
He couldn’t fix this. Not yet. Things would calm down once he got
the Families in line and brought his siblings around. Camilla was
happy to see him, of course. Even with their father’s death, his
baby sister had been kept from the worst of the political bullshit.
At sixteen, she was just starting to dip her toes into the water, and
he’d do whatever it took to ensure she remained safe while she
figured out her own path.
Their brother was another story altogether. For just under a year,
Edward had thought he’d be king. Having that taken away, rightfully
or no, created a divide between them that Theo didn’t know how to
fix. Especially when Edward announced his intentions to attend Oxford
for university, and left within weeks of Theo’s coronation. There
were a handful of nobles who’d jump at the chance to use that
separation for their own ambitions, and he needed to fix it before
things got worse.
But not tonight.
Tonight, he had to fix this.
Theo snagged the back of Galen’s neck. His friend resisted for a
second, but then he exhaled harshly and let Theo pull him closer
until their foreheads pressed together. Tell me what you need.
Theo closed his eyes. Galen didn’t have to tell him. He knew
what Galen needed—what they all needed. “Where is she?”
“Tub.”
Good. She’d be nice and relaxed. He tightened his grip on Galen’s
neck. “The food?”
“An hour.”
Good boy. Sex wouldn’t solve any of the undercurrents in the
long term, but it would help release the tension that had been
growing with every passing day. Trapping the two people he loved was
never part of the plan, but Theo couldn’t shake the feeling that
was exactly what he’d done. He released Galen and stepped back.
“Strip.”
Theo turned and walked deeper into the room without bothering to make
sure Galen obeyed, knowing it would piss his friend off, and knowing
that anger was exactly what he needed to purge the festering feeling
beneath. At least for tonight. Tomorrow, they would talk and further
clear the air. Open communication was the only way this would work,
and they hadn’t spent enough time alone together to get to the
heart of things in the last couple weeks.
His fault. He knew that well enough.
He’d fix it. He’d find a way to fix all of it.
Theo pulled off his shirt and tossed it over the back of the desk
chair. He kicked off his shoes and then walked into the bathroom.
Steam fogged the mirrors and Meg had turned off all the lights,
leaving only the trio of thick candles lit on the half wall between
the tub and the sinks. It gave the room a dark, intimate feeling that
he approved of. He stalked to the edge of the tub and took a seat
near her head. She had her eyes closed and the water licked at her
breasts as if determined to offer him teasing glimpses.
“Thought you weren’t working late tonight.”
“I wasn’t planning on it. Things didn’t go well with Lord
Huxley, and I didn’t want to come back here with that frustration
riding so close to the surface. I needed some time to cool off.” He
smoothed a hand over her hair, tangling his fingers in the dark
strands. She looked good. The decadent meals the staff insisted on
putting together had filled out her curves, and he couldn’t count
her ribs the way he’d been able to when they first met. Theo kept
stroking her hair and used his free hand to urge her onto her
stomach. The new position freed him up to work at the knots of
tension lining her shoulders and upper back. Tension that was his
fault. “Let me take care of you tonight, princess.” Galen walked
naked into the bathroom and leaned against the counter, crossing his
arms over his chest. Theo met his gaze steadily. “Let me take care
of both of you.”
