Khloë chuckled. “Having the soul of an imp makes life supremely entertaining.”
Carmen’s lips twitched. “You think so?”
“Yup,” said Khloë. “Because my life is supremely entertaining.”
“Your life is mostly chaotic,” Carmen pointed out. “Not so long ago, there were attempts on your aforementioned life by a Lazarus demon who was intent on revenge after you played some part in his resurrected daughter being returned to her natural state of death.”
“And you didn’t find that entertaining?”
“I did,” announced a new voice. And then none other than Lucifer—yes, the devil himself—joined their group. He smiled at Asher. “And there’s my favorite nephew and future partner in crime.”
Harper ground her teeth. “Okay, I know for sure you were not invited.”
Lou smirked at her. “You missed me, right?”
“Oh, my middle finger is saluting you as we speak,” said the sphinx.
Lou lightly patted Maddox on the back, like they were old friends. “Good seeing you.”
Knox frowned. “You sounded like you actually meant that.”
He did. Which was perplexing, yes, because Lou didn’t appear to like anyone other than Asher, from what Maddox had observed.
Lou gave Knox a baffled look. “The man was involved in the demise of one of those holy farts from upstairs. More, he carries the blood of a being who did the right thing and fell to Earth long ago. Why wouldn’t I find it good to see him?” His gaze slid to Raini. “Ah, how happy you must be to no longer have Jolene as your Prime. Switching lairs was a good call. These Wallises … there is no end to their evil. Not even when they marry a Thorne.”
Harper rolled her eyes. “He’s still sulking because Knox and I don’t agree that he should be Asher’s full-time carer,” she explained.
“It’s only right that I have quality time with my protégé,” said Lou.
“Stop calling him that,” Harper clipped.
“I’d make a damn good manny.”
The sphinx snorted. “You have absolutely no conscience, a total lack of empathy, get stoned every day, and relish the thought of all life on Earth being eradicated.”
Lou waved an encouraging hand. “Keep going, that’s it, allow the hate to flow through you.”
“I don’t hate you. I just think you’re a nutjob.”
“You’ll need to repeat that in my other ear. This one doesn’t give a shit.”
Flames abruptly burst to life around Asher. Then they were gone, along with the little boy.
“Shit, where’d he go?” Raini frantically spun around, as did the others.
Maddox pointed to the luxury car on display. “He’s in there.”
Harper threw up her arms. “Dammit, kid.”
God, she had a pussy-eating champion right here.
Raini wasn’t shy or demure in bed, so she had no problem shamelessly arching into Maddox’s mouth. The man was good with his hands, but his tongue absolutely stole the show—tracing and swirling and dipping and swiping.
She fisted the bedsheets. He hadn’t even stripped off her clothes. Nope. He’d tossed her onto the bed, flipped up her dress, ragged off her panties, parted her legs, and set about driving her insane with his mouth.
He was succeeding.
The man. Had. Skills. Serious skills. And now she needed to come so damn bad. But no amount of appeals, curses, pleas or threats was making him give her what she wanted.
“Maddox, don’t make me come down there!”
He lifted his head and speared her with those intense eyes. Eyes that then bled to black. His demon was now in charge. Awesome. Because it looked in the mood to slam home and fuck her raw.
It stood upright at the foot of the bed and fisted its cock. “If you want it inside you, you will have to earn it.”
Oh it was a bold fucker. She went to sit upright so she could suck it off, but the demon shook its head.
“You will make yourself come. I want to watch.”
It wanted a show, right.
Well, Raini proceeded to give it a show, following its instructions—pumping one finger into her pussy while using her free hand to cup her breasts, twist her nipples, and play with her clit. Sometimes the demon wanted her to thrust her finger hard, sometimes the entity wanted her to merely rub at her sweet spot. She did as the demon asked, because she knew from experience that it was the fastest way to get what she wanted.
“You have been a very good girl for me,” it said.
Why yes, yes she had.
It withdrew her hand from her pussy and flipped her onto her stomach.
Booyah. She heard a zipper lower and did a mental happy dance. She’d just pushed to her hands and knees when the demon rammed into her pussy with such force it stole her breath. And she came—there was no stopping it. Her release tore through her body hot and fast, making her head snap back and her eyes go blind.
When her orgasm finally subsided, the demon curled over her and put its mouth to her ear. “Now, thank me for letting you come.”
