I made a promise. When my best friend died, I swore I would protect his younger sister. Laramie was off-limits. She wasn’t mine and she never would be. It didn’t matter what I wanted because I couldn’t touch her. When she showed up at the Crossroads, I ordered her to leave. When she didn’t listen, I begged her to keep her distance. When she pressed her lips to mine, I fought to remain in control. When I looked into her eyes, I knew I’d protect her with every breath in my body. I didn’t expect to fall in love. And now the monster who murdered her brother in cold blood is back to finish the job. He wants Laramie but he won’t take her from me. What we have is eternal. I’ll take that to the grave.
I’m a prospect for the Royal Bastards and this MC has a deadly secret. If it’s a monster that wants to play, he’s about to receive a shock.
Reapers are the deadliest monsters of all.
*** For best enjoyment, it is highly recommended that Devil’s Ride, Hell’s Fury, and The Biker’s Wish are read before Eternally Mine. *** WARNING – This book contains dark and mature content, human trafficking, and violence with a paranormal REAPER twist.
Nikki Landis is the USA Today & International Bestselling, Multi-Award-Winning Author of over 50 romance novels in the MC, reverse harem, paranormal, dystopian, and science fiction genres. Her books feature deadly reapers, dark alpha heroes, protective shifters, and seductive vampires along with the feisty, independent women they love.

Her tire was low, so I followed her. And when Jack didn’t check up on her, I followed her again. I also ran into her at the grocery store. I’m not a stalker. I take my job as a police officer seriously, and that includes protecting citizens when they don’t see the danger. I just never thought I would be called out in front of her, or require her services after an injury. I also never thought I would fall for her. But the game has No Limit and I’m all in.
I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.
Confused, enraged, ruined—that’s how I felt when she left that day, and it took every ounce of strength I had not to go after her.
Our connection was a slow burn.
And it had begun to rage.
Until she blew out of town, with no warning, completely extinguishing the flames.
Now she’s here, standing on the doorstep, holding a piece of me I never knew existed. I should be angry. I should be hurt. But there’s no time for that. Threats have been made, and now it’s up to my team and me to bring down the almost untouchable elite coming after them.
I’ve already lost enough time, and I’ll protect them with my life before I go another day without the now most important parts of my world.
Our fire is stronger than before.
And they’re coming for my family.
But we’ll use it to burn them to the ground.

“Amelia, I’ve got to go. I’m in the parking lot and need to go inside before I’m late.” I love my sister. Although we only officially met her a year and a half ago, she turned out to be the missing piece of our fucked up family. But since my nephew was born a few months ago, she’s so thrilled to talk to someone who isn’t babbling nonsensically back at her, she’s pretty hard to get off the phone.
“Okay. Are you still coming over after?” Maddox, my nephew, begins whining in the background, causing Amelia to jostle the phone.
It’s been a long Friday. But I cut out of work early for this appointment and am definitely looking forward to drinks with my sisters. “Wouldn’t miss it. See you then.”
Amelia helps our sister Lenny and I even out the estrogen to testosterone ratio in our family.
It will never be even.
There are five guys to three women and one five-year-old diva.
But at least now, we’re a little closer to a balance.
I enter my doctor’s office, sign in, take a seat to wait, and pull out my tablet to scroll through the emails that have come through since I left the office. As the vice president of Public Relations and Marketing for the Philadelphia Kings, there’s no such thing as time off, not even for a doctor’s appointment.
It doesn’t take long for me to clear out my inbox, responding to those that were urgent and forwarding the rest to my assistant, Connor. However, in that short amount of time, the already crowded waiting room appears to have hit maximum capacity. The sea of pregnant women surrounding me seems to be closing in. When I switched from the pill to the shot a few months ago, I was looking for something a little more user-friendly. I’d tried a few different birth control pills over the last few years, and the side effects weren’t for me.
The shot has been great.
Less migraines to deal with, and I’m a much happier woman. It would be even better if I didn’t have to come back in every few months.
But for now, it’ll do.
When a woman, who looks to be about a hundred years pregnant, sits down next to me with a toddler covered in peanut butter and jelly by her side, I hug the opposite side of my chair and pray the nurse calls me quickly.
Don’t get me wrong, kids are great. I love my nephew and my little sister.
But I love when I get to give them back too.
I’m not a woman who gushes over other people’s kids.
Most babies look more like small aliens than perfect little angels.
This . . . I take stock of the waiting room around me and grimace. This madhouse surrounding me today is just not for me.
* * *
Thirty minutes later, I’m sitting on the exam table in a stiff, pale-pink paper robe when my doctor finally walks in. “How are we doing today, Scarlet? I was expecting to see you two weeks ago for your follow-up.” She pulls up my chart on her tablet, then sits down on her little stool on wheels.
“Sorry about the delay. I had to reschedule my appointment. Something came up with work. But I’m feeling fine, Doctor Esher. No complaints. Just ready to get this exam over with and get on with my night.” Unless you count how damn cold it is in this room. I could easily complain about that. It’s not like they don’t know their patients are going to get naked in here. Would it kill them to turn the heat up just a tad?
Doctor Esher scrolls through what I’m guessing is my chart before rolling over toward the table. The smile that was on her face moments ago is gone, replaced by a purposefully blank expression. “Scarlet, have you had any issues since the last time you were here?”
“No issues. Not so much as a cough. Why? Is something wrong with my bloodwork? I wasn’t supposed to be fasting, was I? Because I had coffee before I had it done the other day. I thought you said it didn’t matter and we just needed to make sure the hormones from the shot didn’t throw off anything else.” I get migraines. Bad migraines. Sometimes debilitating ones. They started when I was in high school. I’ve tried every pill out there, and they all exacerbated the crippling headaches. The shot was my next best option. And as far as I’m concerned, so far, so good. Doctor Esher clears her throat. “Scarlet, according to your bloodwork, you’re pregnant.”
I tilt my head to the side and study her. I don’t think she’d kid about something so serious, but . . . “Is this a bad joke? I mean honestly, that really isn’t funny.”
Her face stays unmoving.
No reaction.
She’s not laughing.
“Scarlet.” Her tone has dropped an octave, no longer light and airy like it was when she greeted me. “This isn’t a joke. I wouldn’t do that to you. According to your bloodwork from last week, you’re pregnant. Judging by your hCG levels, I’d guess you’re about thirteen to fourteen weeks along.”
“I don’t know what to tell you, Doc. But the draft was last month. I’ve barely had time to sleep, let alone sleep with anyone . . .” I trail off as I run through my mental calendar.
The draft was last month, yes. And the month before that was nonstop, go, go, go. It always is leading up to the draft, leaving no time for any extracurriculars. I was supposed to meet up with a friend of mine in March. He flies into Philadelphia for business every few months, but his trip was cancelled. And we never rescheduled.
I count back fourteen weeks.
But . . . Oh, hell no.
Hudson’s title fight in Las Vegas was fourteen weeks ago.
Son of a bitch.
I wasn’t concerned with a broken condom.
I was covered with the shot.
What are the odds that both forms of birth control would fail? Apparently, higher than I knew.
“I can’t be pregnant.” I meet Doctor Esher’s knowing brown eyes and cringe. “I would have known by now. Wouldn’t I?”
I want to scream at her warm smile. “Not necessarily. At this point in a pregnancy, the telltale sign for most women is a missing period. But you already weren’t having a monthly period to miss because of your birth control. It’s still too early to feel the baby move for a few more weeks yet. And not everyone experiences morning sickness.”
You’ve got to be kidding me. My chest tightens as the room begins to spin around me.
I am Scarlet fucking Kingston.
I am stronger than this.
I do not panic in public.
“Could you please run the test again? I have to believe there was a mistake.” There. I sounded in control. Inside, I might be hyperventilating, but she doesn’t need to know that.
Slow deep breaths.
That’s better.
A mistake.
This has to be a mistake.
But even as I say it to myself, I think back to that night in Las Vegas and know there’s no mistake. If ever there was a man whose sperm could leap tall buildings and blow their way past all hormones in one bound, it would be his.
