Ghosted (Team Zero #3) by Rina Kent

I hope she’s not too attached to those clothes because I’m going to rip them off her body. I reach her in two strides. My chest glues against her back. I love how she sucks in a stuttering breath whenever I touch her.

It doesn’t matter how long we’ve been together, there’s no satiating how much I want to bend her over and fuck her senseless.

I suck on her earlobe, and she leans into me. “It’s been sometimes since the last time in the gym. What do you say?”

She chuckles and shakes her head while standing up.

I stare at those bright blue eyes, my fingers pulling her close by the shorts. “How about giving the boys a sister?”

She leans over, presses her lips against my neck, and whispers, “Already done.”

I pull back, searching her face. “Really?”

“I don’t know if it’s a girl, but,” she takes my hand, and like every time, tears stream down her cheeks as she places my palm over her flat stomach, “We’re pregnant.”

“Fuck,” I say, incredulous and then I’m carrying her in my arms. She squeals and laughs so happily, it makes me feel like the luckiest bloody man alive.

I was a nobody. I had this woman and became somebody.

“We should celebrate.” She’s already pulling on my T-shirt. Another perk of Elle’s pregnancies? She never gets enough of me.

“Fuck right we should.” My hand goes to fulfil my promise of ripping her clothes.

“I love you, Julian,” she murmurs against my neck.

“And I love you, Firefly.”

I prove it with my ravenous lips against hers.

What’s Next?





Thank you so much for reading Ghosted! I was consumed by Ghost and Elle’s story. I hope the passion reached you, too! If you liked it, please leave a review on Amazon, Bookbub & Goodreads. I love hearing from readers!



Guess what’s next in Team Zero? It’s Shadow and Zoe’s story!



Pre-Order Shadowed!



Blurb



She ran from monsters but fell into the trap of the most dangerous one.



Zoe



Shadow is as untouchable as his name. A fighter. A killer. A mafia man.



To avenge my mother’s death, I barge into his world head first.



It starts as a game. A bet. A push and pull. But then it spirals into a web of secrets and forbidden desires.



The more I get to know the man within, the harder he consumes me.



He’s too much. These feelings are too much.



I run, but can I hide from a monster?



Shadow



To protect my deadly secret, I drown in killing and madness. The facade hides my darkness and pushes everyone away.



Not her.



Zoe provokes me. Challenges me. She twists her fingers in my black heart and stirs a part I thought was long dead.



Then she runs.



She calls me a monster.



Well, this monster will never let her go.

Acknowledgements



This is always the easiest and the hardest part. The easiest because I have so much gratitude for everyone who brought this book to life and the hardest because I feel like I don’t always give everyone credit.

To my parents, thank you so much for creating this monster. Now, I can’t be stopped!

My eternal gratitude goes to my husband. Mr K, thanks so much for not killing me yet! Seriously, I would’ve killed me if I were you. Bless your patient soul while I spend endless hours writing Ghosted. I would’ve never followed this dream if it weren’t for your constant support and bouncing ideas with me. You will always be my fantasy in reality!

My editor, Annabelle, thank you a million for shaping my books and always kicking my arse.

My PA, Heather, the queen of organisation! Thank you for your constant support and enthusiasm.

To my proofreaders, Anna-Marie and Nora, this book wouldn’t have been possible without all your catches!

To all my marvellous beta readers, I can’t thank you enough for all the feedback.

To the author community, you know who you are, thank you for making me feel welcome and all warm. You make my day every day.

My Gritty Gang, you guys are the most brilliant reader gang to ever exist!

A special shoutout for every blogger, reader, and book enthusiast who showed Ghosted love.

I can’t fathom enough thank yous. It’s because of all of you that my storytelling dream has become a reality.
