Slate City Omegaverse #3

Knot for a Moment

Rate this book
Five years ago I found my mate… and he has no idea.

I’ve spent my entire life doing two things: training to be a ballet dancer, and longing for a scent-match. My feet bled for one, and my heart bled for the other.

Then my first heat hit, and my deepest dream became my darkest secret.

I scent-matched with my best friend, and ran.

It’s been five years since I last saw him—happily in someone else’s arms—and I couldn’t bear to break his heart.

But that was before. Before he joined my dance company, anger and grief in his eyes. Before I matched with the rest of his pack, whose scents drive me to the best kind of madness. Before I begged for forgiveness, even if I can never forgive myself.

But the more time I spend with them, the more I see the future I always wanted. A love that sweeps me away, keeps me safe, and never lets me go.

Every day, I fall deeper, and as I do, the more they see the truth: No matter how long it’s been, I never gave up on that dream. Knot for a moment.

So.



Whatjusthappened—

We have the third and perhaps final installment of the Slate City books, a “steamy” 🙄 RH “romance” series that is much more erotic romance, and leaning heavy on the erotica.



Like the other books, we’re dropped into our FMC’s world and hardly receive much of an answer for why the FMC has certain friends. Sure, they banter, but because their answer is for the FMC to fuck, I can’t understand if they’re actual friends or superficial “work” friends.



They’re superficial “work” friends.



Our FMC Sloane is the new primary ballerina for her company, the neglected FWB of the Big Bad Craig, and a fill-in gogo girl at a club that will never be mentioned again.



In the day time, she’s just a ballerina. Just a normal girl with a normal life.



No one knows that she has a secret.



🐞🐈‍⬛



PFFFFFFFFFFFFT



No, the secret is that Sloane scent-matched with her bestie/Alpha/fellow dancer Asher five years ago. While he was kissing another girl.



😬



So five years later and she’s resigned herself to vibrators and villainous men. But who woulda think Asher would be the newest dancer of her ballet? AND that one of his packmates would be running BTS as well?




(I did. I knew that.)




What’s on the tin of this book resolves quickly. Asher’s pissed, but not really, and he and Sloane are undulating to their passion. Sloane explores erotic ventures with her new Alphas. The romantic chemistry was hardly there outside of her and Asher, maybe. I know all the MCs cared for each other, but because erotica was the primary relationship and romantic second, I questioned the validity of their relationship.




This book honestly might’ve worked better if Asher and Sloane alone had their own monogamous relationship. I would’ve liked seeing Roman, Jace, and Gabriel with their own omegas, honestly. I think each one deserved their own story and romance. I wasn’t really sold that Sloane was the omega they needed romantically and personally?




The thing about the omegaverse dynamic is that it’s both “found family” and a woman at the focus and worship of several men. And while this is 🌈escapism🌈, that doesn’t mean we should discount actual viable chemistry.




For example, I felt that Roman and Sloane were nice platonically and erotically, but romantically? I think it would’ve been fascinating for Roman to meet an omega who could’ve been selectively mute or someone who used alternate forms of communications, and we could’ve explored the different forms of communications.



For Gabriel and how calm he keeps himself, I would’ve liked to see him with an omega who gets under his skin. And enemies to lovers. An omega who makes him slip up, and the omega is proud of that and much more of a dangerous risk taker. Gabriel learns when he can show his temper healthily and his omega learns when to be calm.



I truly don’t know about Jace. He felt so added into a back that I forgot about him other than him having a baby girl kink.



Anyways, the plot persists. Craig and the new director Ian are the antagonists who are hyperfocused on Sloane for not bending to their manipulation. Sloane sees little reason to block Craig, who continues text-bombing her. And, of course, he slips through the cracks, violating his restraining order, to come for her. Ian gets his when it’s revealed the unethical behavior he treated previous studios.



And all’s shell that ends shell.



🫥

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

I dunno. This just wasn’t for me. RH romances are normally hit or miss for me because they are erotica leaning and fast-track it. Taking the time to build up chemistry is normally lost into instalust and biology 🤢 which can be AMAZINGLY DONE and frankly, muy caliente to the max 🥵. And in that, it can leave us to having an external plot with no third act break up. 👏🏾👏🏾



BUTT 🍑



I just wasn’t bought and sold.



I’m happy the MCs communicated. But somehow, their ease of communication is the reason I couldn’t understand their relationships. They got each other without any growing pains, without anything really. It was easy. Which, again, can be fine. But I didn’t understand why it was so easy for them considering all of them very little had much in common.



MK.



👍🏾



Just a 3 ⭐️ read. I’ll reread for the smut but not for the characters. This is disappointing. I really did enjoy Esme’s book the best. But all the books suffered from us being handfisted side characters with little understanding as to why they have the relationship they have with the MC, and then relied on instalust to convey romance when instalust can ignite romance, but it doesn’t always.

Kissing Asher was like dancing a tango. Slow and smooth, filled with passion you knew was leading somewhere inevitable. Following the lead and not caring where it went because it was all pleasure.

I love sweet Omegaverse reads, and this one is a perfect example of one with scent matching, a super-supportive pack, and HEAs - even if an obsessed psycho of an ex threatens Sloane’s HEA with her perfect pack. That bit of danger gave a bit of darkness to an otherwise sugary story.

I adored Sloane and her Alphas. There is an instant connection once they discover they are scent matches (dubbed scent-sympathy in this omegaverse world). However, they still work on building relationships outside the primal drive to finalize their bonds. The Alphas assume the touch-her-and-die roles as they protect Sloane from her “ex” and a director with a grudge, but they still give her the freedom to fight her battles. She’s allowed to be soft and firm in equal measure.

The romance between Sloane and her mates is fast-burn (though they do show restraint not often found in these situations of scent matching) and very spicy! Good lord, is there a lot of spice! Her Alphas are rough, soft, dominant, and have the dirtiest mouths with abundant Good Girls. There are multiple MF and group scenes with hole stuffing (DP, DVP, etc.).

I highly recommend this sweet, contemporary omegaverse.

This is an RH omegaverse. I didn’t dislike it, but it wasn’t really for me. Many people who like the OV genre would like it. The writing is fine, the characters are likeable, there’s a lot of spice. It’s got “cozy” vibes – the heroine meets the heroes, and they instantly start taking care of her.

The plot: the heroine (who's in her late 20s, I think) is an omega ballet dancer, who discovers her fated mates, a pack of 4 alphas. There’s a bit of plot conflict, in the form of her having a crazy ex. And, the ballet company she works at has an evil creative director. Otherwise, that's basically it.

There’s no real relationship development with her and the guys. Even as she’s sleeping with them for the first time, she acknowledges that she barely knows them. But, they instantly act all loving. I get why some people enjoy this type of story. But it's boring, to me. The relationship has no real tension, no journey that it’s going on. The instant the heroine meets the heroes, they’re cuddling her.

I understand that this is a sweet book, so I didn’t expect it to be “enemies to lovers,” or have intense angst. But there’s still a lot of potential light conflict and angst that you can do, while keeping the overall tone cozy! Every time this story had the opportunity to do that, it didn’t take it.

For example, one of the heroes doesn’t talk much, and has trouble connecting with people because of that – I thought that was setting it up for him to be distant from the heroine, and for them to have to work through that. (He wouldn’t need to be hateful towards her, just distant). But, nope! He’s pretty chatty and fine around her. She instantly loves him, and isn't at all wary. And, when he later tells her about his issues with talking, it’s fine, and there’s nothing for them to work through.

For another one of the heroes, he used to be friends with the heroine, but 5 years ago, after she realized that she was his fated mate, she ran away and ditched him – because she saw him with his girlfriend (at the time) and didn’t want to ruin his happiness, or risk him reacting with disappointment (in case he liked his girlfriend more). This could have been an interesting light angst for them to work through! But nope! It’s over and done with after 1 short conversation scene.

Again, a story does NOT need to be dark, or have an “enemies to lovers” dynamic, in order for the relationship to have some tension. A sense that it has movement. A sense that it's a story, and not just "Okay, here it is! They're together!" But, this book wasn’t willing to go there.

Like for example, Burn is a book that hits some similar buttons - in the sense that the hero is all-in on the heroine right away. But, that book is less boring to me because they still have some light tension to work through - the hero is controlling, the heroine doesn't like to be controlled. That book still hits the spot if you're in the mood for a story where a hero instantly wants to take care of the heroine, and there's no heavy angst. But it still has a plot, and movement to the relationship.

There’s a lot of poorly written shit in the Omegaverse genre. This book is still quite good, compared to most of it. But in order for me to give in more than 3 stars, I need the relationship to have more substance. But, if you don’t mind insta-love vibes, and you want a cozy read, you’d probably like this.

Ok, here is the thing.

This is a hmm nice book... Or good. It's in the right genres I wanted and there was a story or many involved as well as smut, so I mean.. Normally I would give it four or five stars...and I mean, I think you SHOULD read it... I just, idk.

First, the book was all over the place. It was like they, the author, had many ideas for the plot of several books, and didn't have time to write many novels so just made all the plots tie together somehow and slapped it into one novel....

I also think they killed off a character that should have at least had some "screen time", since they were this huge part of their lives... So I felt ripped off of seeing more of that character.

I'm trying to word this so I don't have to mark it as A spoiler. Lol.

All, it FELT like there was supposed to be more to the story regarding the grandmother and parents. They hinted at it so much, it feels like a cliffhanger.

And the non discussion of children? Don't MOST alpha and omega packs want kids? Or at least have discussions about families? Not just what happened in this book?

This book has left so much open in the end and so much left that COULD have been but wasn't and so much that was that shouldn't have been.

If you get what I'm saying, then you are.a.very avid reader lol!

I just feel disappointed. And it had an ok start. Enough to make.me.read the full story... But idk if I am going to read more of this series when it's released...because the above mentioned issues I had, were also in the other books but, I overlooked them, thinking it could only get better...right? Nope.

Anyway, I'm off to find my next read. Wish me luck.


Maybe I'll try to hunt down a vampy, possessive, rh, fated mate book...

I am loving these Slate City omegaverse novels written by this author. I enjoy the characters, which is important for me, but I also really like the storylines. This one is not my favorite of the three, but still great.

It's finally here! Knot For A Moment, the 3rd book in the Slate City Omegaverse.
🩰
Sloane has worked her whole life to become a ballet dancer while longing for another dream, having a scent match. When her first heat hits, she scent matches her best friend. What does she do? She runs. Now it's five years later, and Asher is in her dance company. Sloane can't hide anymore. Especially not when she also scent matches with his whole pack.
🍪
Devyn Sinclair never misses. If I'm in need of a spicy pick-me-up, her Slate City series is always up to the task. Knot For A Moment is no exception. If anything, it might be taking over top spot for me in the series. Sloane is wonderful and so relatable, the angst is outside the pack, and there were some genuinely wonderful moments of growth. Then you add Sloane's Alphas, an amazing cast of side characters, and the Center Stage-esque vibes, I was hooked instantly.
🎶
All of the Alphas are delicious in this book, and I swear their scents were made for me, but Roman and Gabriel stole the whole fvcķińg show babes. Seriously. Gabriel's daddy dom vibes with the hidden nerdy side? Perfection. And the way he TOOK THAT PHONE CALL??? IYKYK. 🥵 And then sweet baby Roman. I say sweet baby like he's not a giant, tattooed, beast of a man, but he needs to be protected at all costs. The epitome of the strong and silent type, he has a learning disability that makes talking difficult. But Roman most definitely doesn't need words to show Sloane how much he wants and loves her. Plus, his predilection for sleepy time fun wins him all the points. Or did he win those with Mango? HE GETS ALL THE POINTS OK.
🤣
Yeah. So maybe I liked this book alot lol. I so very much appreciate the ARC opportunity and I hope you guys give Sloane and her men the read they deserve. If you need more encouragement, here's some things to expect:
◇D/s
◇Sømnøphīlīa
◇All the dirty talk.
◇Men who love to eat.
◇So many surprises and spoiling.
◇Fun in public.
◇O Denial
◇Toys are team players.
◇Spanking

DNF @ 30%.

I can usually forgive a lot when reading an omegaverse reverse harem (it scratches a very particular itch), but I couldn’t get into this. The angsty set up was really thin — like, so thin the characters got over it after a 2 minute conversation. And all the villain-y characters were a bit cartoon-ish. I am curious about where the story will go but not enough to keep reading right now — might pick this up again later if I can’t get past the curiosity.

So. At the 60% mark you can just skip to the 90% and legit miss like. Nothing.
I mean “plot” happens but not really.
It’s was ok. A lot of fluff and a lot of nothing. Lots of spice. Simple story and sweet Omegaverse.

I did enjoy this book. I've liked every book in this series. This one didn't feel as fast-paced as the other 2, though. But we finally got Sloanes' story! She dances ballet for SCB and has been promoted to principal. Which is a huge deal. She's always been lonely, and we find out why she has been. She scented one of her mates 5 years ago and ran because it turned out to be her best friend, Asher. He never understood why Sloane left so quickly, and it hurt him to lose his best friend before he even found out they were mates. Even though this one felt a bit of a slower pace plot wise (in my opinion), it still kept me wanting to know what happens next! The build-up for the ending... ugh. I almost lost it!

These are definitely getting spicier as they go. But the reasoning behind the problems is still not strong enough. It bothers me that the drama is so weak and basically makes the FML look really dumb. Like so dumb. And the villains are also very weak characters. Why do they do anything? No one knows. The story tries to tell you but it’s so dumb. But then again they might just be crazy.

Again, these are still very good. And I will continue reading any future books in this series just don’t expect any of the drama to be reasonable. But then again when are emotions reasonable. I can tell you the spice level is super high. So we get a lot of that.

An omega ballerina, a second chance romance with male ballerina (hot), and the rest of his pack, have a whirlwind romance and drama occurs (of course).

I absolutely love this series. I think the first one (Knot Your Damn Omega) is still my favourite but I really enjoyed this one. If you are going to read one omegaverse series ever it should be this one.

I love Sloane, Jace, Gabriel, Roman and Asher so much, but with everything going on in the plot I kept forgetting one of them. Never the same one though, they all got a turn. I feel like it would have been better with just three of the guys or one less plot line.

There was a lot going on. That’s one of the things I love about this series. So much happening and everything ends up where it should and how it should (for the most part). But this time it was a bit too much. I got lost in the story. I still loved it but that is my one critique.

I loved seeing all the characters for the last two books and meeting Sloane’s grandma, who is a complete icon and if Devyn wants to right her story at some point I won’t object. I also love all of Sloane’s friends and I really want more of them. Dion, Claire and all the others are so great!

Thank you so much Devyn for the ARC!

Knot for a Moment is the third book in the Slate City Omegaverse series, which is ostensibly a series of standalone novels set in the same universe and loosely interconnected (the omegas that star in each book are close friends who went to school together), but I should warn you that as of this entry into the series it’s honestly kind of hard to keep track of who’s who unless you’ve read the previous two titles in the series (don’t worry, they’re fabulous).

I was automatically going to enjoy this book because there were ballerinas in it. It’s one of my biggest book weaknesses. I was already a fan of Devyn Sinclair’s writing, and then she went and wrote a why choose omegaverse romance with ballerinas in it. I almost want to send her a present just for that alone, because omegaverse plus ballerinas is a pretty sweet deal for me.

It helps that the plot is actually really good: an alpha who is a little unhinged and stalkerish to the omega, a ballet artistic director who’s toxic to just about everyone, an omega ballerina FMC who has been sad and alone for too long, and four alphas who scent-match to her and know right away they will give her the world if they can.

Speaking of alphas: BOY HOWDY. I need to get myself a Roman. The spicy scenes with Roman in them in this book were my favorite. I love all the alphas, but Roman was definitely my favorite.

Sloane, our FMC, is a genuinely sweet but bratty omega. She’s determined and driven in her dance career and doesn’t live too much in the past. She values her friendships and loves her grandma. When she meets her alphas she immediately becomes as fiercely protective of them as they are of her, and that symbiotic hurt/comfort loop that comes with some of the best omegaverse romances comes into play and I love it. When the omega is hurting they care for her. When one of her alphas is hurting, she cares for him.

Devyn Sinclair has done an incredible job yet again.

I was provided a copy of this title by the author. All thoughts, opinions, views, and ideas expressed herein are mine and mine alone. Thank you.

Ballet OV in Slate City - yes please!

I did not want this book to end! I read this book as slow as possible because from Chapter 1 I knew I wasn't going to get enough of it. I loved the story - it was so sweet and steamy and freaking adorable. I loved the characters - Sloane was sweet and strong but spent way too much time in her head. Her Alphas were perfection! From Ash who was her best friend to Gabriel who was her most dominant Alpha to Jace who was sweet to Roman who I adored and was her quiet place. Honestly I just spent this entire book in my feelings adoring the way they all clicked and loved each other. I really enjoyed the cameos and the friendship between the omegas but I lived for the interactions between Sloane and her pack. And I was right by the last few chapters I was dreading that this book was going to end because I wanted more but it was a perfect ending for the perfect story.

This story is the perfect combination of sweet and diiiiiirty 🥵 Sloane has appeared in the previous Slate City books, and she’s always stood out as a witty, kind, and ride-or-die friend. It was absolutely lovely getting to know her better through her own POV. Her loyalty to her loved ones and her fellow dancers is admirable, as is her work ethic and commitment to doing her absolute best.

Her alphas are individuals with unique personalities (and k!nx 😘) who also stand out for many of the same reasons that Sloane does. I loved seeing them grow together, even after the insta-love beginnings. They still had hurdles to get past and had to learn to navigate those together. This book pulls on your heartstrings in more than one way, so get those tissues out!

The spice level is magnificent. There are some… experiences… that I don’t recall having read in any other books before and they were eye-opening 👀

I am excited to see what comes next, particularly if we get anymore Slate City stories 💜

This is such a sweet book! I instantly loved it and couldn't put it down. This book is filled with a little heart ache that will be make you cry but it's also filled with love and laughter and I truly loved this book so much!

Sloane, what a beautiful soul. I'm so glad she finally got her book. She is amazing. I love her personality, she is kind and caring but she has spirit and we definitely saw that on more than one occasion.

Asher, Jace, Gabriel and Roman are I think some of my favourite alpha's. They are so attentive to Sloane and her needs. They are also just so friendly, happy and just so alpha, I love it. They all give her something different and it's so beautiful. Yes it sucks that Sloane and Asher had to go through it in the past but I'm so glad that they did find each other again. I think my favourite is Roman. Yes, he is quiet but who cares? The way he loves Sloane is lovely and I'm so glad they found each other. They all truly deserve to be happy and Sloane is perfect for them in every way.

However, there are outside forces causing many problems for these beautiful people and I really hope that they can be stopped before it's too late...

Please read this book! It's so sweet but also really funny and just such an amazing read.

Thank you so much to Devyn and the wonderful team at Chaotic Creatives for giving me the chance to ARC read this book. I really appreciate it. All opinions are honest and my own 🩷🩷🩷

I can't wait to see who is next in this delicious world. This is book 3 in the Slate City Omegaverse Series. They are all standalones but it does make more sense if you read them in order 🩷🩷🩷

This was over plotted while also not having much go on. Over sexed. And almost all the sex was boring.

Once again we don’t really get any background to the guys. The whole her running away 5 years ago seemed like it was going to be a bigger deal and that lasted all of 5mins. Doesn’t even seem it was even discussed with the others. Hell we don’t even really learn how the 4 of them became a pack.

Gabe was made to seem like the father of the group. Ash and Sloan the kids. I guess that makes Jace the mom which probably works since he just makes smoothies everyday. They don’t feel like a romantically linked group.

Explain how you loved Sloan sooo much but when she leaves you never attempt to see her?! In 5 years you never visited to see her dance?! Yeah that’s love….

Roman was the only good thing about this book. We deserved to see more of his backstory. I would just like to steal Roman away from them. They don’t deserve him. He feels like he just floats outside of the pack. He doesn’t fit with them at all.

Jace fell away after their one nice scene when she first came home with them after rehearsal.

Repeating the ‘little one’ pet name was… boring. And really just made Sloan seem like a little. Same with the baby girl. Blue was solid. Firefly was 🔥.

The Craig storyline shouldn’t have even happened. Didn’t need to happen. And honestly ruined the book. Will never should have died. The accident was so random. Craig just confessing and strutting into the police station was utterly stupid. The whole background of his crazy, which was more background than we got of any of the guys except maybe Ash, was even more random and completely ridiculous. WTF does her grandma have anything to do with literally anything? Stupid.


The company plot was what should have been done more properly. That was what was interesting. And instead of doing it justice we skim it and then just blow it up in 5 mins at the end.

They had 1 week of hardcore rehearsals and then Ash and Sloan basically retire for the rest of the book. Meanwhile others are still performing. Not sure why I should feel bad for them. They’re just on a sex holiday they claim is needed after 1 week of work.

And then when they do go back to work they mess around in the studio and get pissy when their boss tells them to keep it in their pants. Because..groping each other on the floor in the studio isn’t very professional. But they’re scent matched so they think it’s fine. And then to top it off bigger boss Gabe purposely fucks her in his office during the work day 2 minutes before a meeting with Ian. Real classy. That’s your workplace. A job you can easily be replaced at. Ian may have been a dick but you can be a grown up and keep yours in your pants during the work day.

Knot for a moment

IM SQUEALING

I know I say that a lot but honestly it’s how I know I love a book lmao

I love the Omegaverse and specifically Devyn’s Omegaverse because there are so few authors who write captivating stories with wonderful writing and characters. But Devyn honestly is probably in my top 3 OV authors. They will always be immediate reads for me, hands down.

First off!! A story that includes a male ballet dancer?? Umm YES PLEASE! I did not know this is what I was missing in my life. And the fact that she ends up matching with him??? *throws kindle across the room* (@devynsinclair I will be suing for damages lol jk jk)

There’s romance, a bit of angst and heartbreak, some damn good spicy scenes AND cameos from our other Slate City packs?! What more could a girl ask for????

All in all, this was an amazing addition to the Slate City universe and I do not have the patience to wait for more but I suppose I will have to occupy myself in the meantime.

A Dance To Last A Lifetime

I really enjoyed this book, It was a great addition to the series. And while it did stand alone it was a lot of fun to see the characters from books one and two make appearances.

I know nothing about dance or the ballet world, but this book really made me wish I did. Lol

I enjoyed that this book had some second chance aspects while also giving us new connections.

As with the previous books we had a villian...some suspense/action to keep the reader super invested...not that the romance and RH connections didn't do that ;)

I have inhaled this series in less than a week and I truly hope that the author plans to add additional books to the series, I've enjoyed them all mmensely.

SPOILERS

she goes to practice only to find out one of the new dancers is her best friend that she hasn’t seen in five years. she left her former dance studio after walking in on him kissing another dancer right before she caught his scent. she realizes that he’s her scent match but she didn’t want to ruin his new relationship and relocated to slade city. her scent is like blueberries and pancakes.

asher west is the newest dancer in the company, having a lead role. he turns up driving his motorcycle to the studio, finding the other dancers waiting for the doors to be unlocked. he has abs, broad shoulders, and a secret tattoo on his ribs. he was abused in his childhood because he had a shitty parent. his scent is like freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

gabriel black. he’s the new executive director.
he has sandy brown hair. he’s probably my least favorite out of all of them despite his biceps. he’s got a clark kent glasses situation and he’s a workaholic. i don’t see the appeal of his scent but it’s like tobacco and vanilla.

jace mckenna is a physiotherapist and he’s the first to give her a massage or make her a smoothie. he has medium brown skin, and hair shaved close with green and hazel eyes. his scent was like butterscotch.

roman hughes is a renowned sculptor finding it easier to articulate his thoughts with his hands rather than with his voice. he’s dyslexic but he slowly gets more vocal with her. he was neglected in his childhood because of his diagnosis. his scent is pine.

asher remembers that her favorite food is indian and her specifications for a nest. she starts to go into heat on the night of the premiere, but she manages to make it through the performance. her alphas plan on building her a dance studio in their place. roman surprises her with an orange kitten named mango.

her ex-fling isn’t get the hint that they’re over and has been sending her threatening messages and stalking her. her best friend has alphas that own a security company that looking into him. craig sullivan the CEO of hourglass investments but his company was going under because of poor leadership.

they propose to her, roman sketching her with a ring on her left hand before they hand over the real diamond. they have a bonding ceremony before the studio schedule resumes. ash gets into a motorcycle accident and their bond goes silent. she races to his location to find out that his close friend didn’t make it. asher got a wedding ring tattoo and her name delicately written above the band.

ian, the creative director, initentionally scheduled the remodel before the showcase, his plan for the dancers to beg for a pushback and for him to appear generous in his understanding. he forces her to do two-hundred-and-fifty fouettés only for two of her alphas to storm into the rehearsal to protect her.

asher goes to the police station to give his statement. the detective informs them that they made an arrest and that the charge was for first degree murder. i think that it was craig, aiming for asher and i was right. asher plans on getting a memorial tattoo to honor is late best friend. she gives each of her alphas their ring and she’s planning on getting a tattoo of a firefly.

in the epilogue two months later, sloane is back in her pointe shoes in a production of swan lake. one year later, they’re attending an art exhibit seeing roman reveals at his latest sculpture. they surprise her with a custom leather jacket with embroidered patches designed by roman. oh, and a helmet.
