“This the real you?” She made a
circling motion about her face and then pointed at him.
“Yeah.”
“Better.”
A devilish grin tugged at his lips.
His green eyes were the one constant until they fizzled with a touch of purple
as they skimmed her exposed legs. If she’d seen that two years ago when she
first stalked him, she’d have known he wasn’t the human Ryan Sinclair she’d been
ordered to kill. Had she known, she’d probably have reaped him as she’d been
ordered.
“That shirt looks much better on
you than it ever did on me.”
His words startled her back to the
present. Uncomfortable beneath his scrutiny, she fiddled with the collar and
looked about his kitchen, anything to keep from making eye contact. “I have no
idea where my clothes are.”
“You need new ones. Sit.” His palm
touched her lower back.
When had he approached? He guided
her toward a chair. After she settled into the seat, she ran her fingertip
along the top of the table. She’d lost everything and regained her life while
strapped to the glossy wood.
“Table brings back fond memories,
huh?”
Stunned by his forthrightness, she
shot a glance at him. His hawkish gaze seemed to gauge her mood.
Solas swallowed past the sudden
lump in her throat. “I’m unsure if they’re fond—”
“You’re sure, but in the morning
light, you’re second guessing everything.”
“I’ve made unwise choices lately.”
He flashed her a grin, and his voice
held a note of something she couldn’t identify. “Regret not murdering me for
your daddy now?”
“It’s what I’ve done for millennia
without question. Instead, I disregard his commands and give you my chastity.”
Recognizing the volatile buzz surrounding him, she held his penetrating stare
and still gave him the truth. “I repeat: Unwise choices.”
Running his finger across his
bottom lip, Loki nodded and perused the enormous selection of fare. Without
warning, his foot connected with the leg of her chair, and he shoved her away
from the table with a screech of wood against tile. He knocked her off balance
when he caught her hips and jerked her to the edge of the seat, as he went to
his knees. She tried to adjust her position but was diverted when he buried his
face between her legs.
His tongue licked through her folds,
and she arched her back, crying out at the insane pleasure. Nothing should feel
this good. It was no wonder Father forbid indulging in sexual activity.
Loki wrapped his hands around her
thighs, adjusted her to his satisfaction, and immobilized her into position
against his face. As he swiped his tongue through her, she trembled each time
he connected with her clit. She buried her hand in his dark-brown hair to
anchor him to her, while tilting her head against the back of the chair and
losing herself in the erotic sensation of his tongue.
Solas rocked her hips against him in
a quest to reach the shattering she must
have. She coveted them as surely as she ever had manna, more than she ever had
Father’s approval. Her belly cramped as her loins pulsated, and she gladly anticipated
the cataclysmic release.
Loki moved away from her flesh, and
she groaned at the death of her climax. He dragged his mouth across the inside
of her thigh, smearing her juices all over her skin. She waited for him to get
back to business. When he didn’t, she lifted her head from the chair and looked
at him.
A smile chock full of depravity
appeared on his lips. “I own you, Solas. The sooner you admit that, the easier
this relationship will become.”
Her jaw dropped, and she dragged in
a breath to flay him with her tongue, but he shifted upward and cut off
anything she’d have said with his mouth on hers. His tongue speared inside and
laved against hers. Solas gripped the chair to keep from pulling him closer.
Their kiss ended, and he dragged
his mouth across hers in a feather-light caress, continuing onward across her
cheek and to her ear. He whispered, “We have a deal. You are mine. I won’t
allow you to renege.”
He moved away, striding across the
kitchen to the counter. Solas worked at reorienting her libido as he poured two
mugs of dark liquid.
“A deal with the devil,” she
mumbled beneath her breath. What had she been thinking? She’d hoped she hadn’t made
the pact she feared she had.
“I’m certainly no angel.” He
plunked sugar into one mug and flashed her a depraved grin. “Fallen or
otherwise.”
