“KEEP YOUR EYES shut, pretty soul. I mean it.” Dante covers my eyes with his hand like he thinks I might try to peek, which he’s right about.

I flutter my eyelashes against his palm. “I’m too excited. This place looked huge from the outside. Why did you guys choose to stay in the apartment when this was an option?”

“We didn’t need much. The complex was great for being around mortals, and I don’t know. We hadn’t been there long. Maybe we chose it instinctively because you were there.” Dante’s breath tickles my neck as he murmurs in my ear. “We also like to save help from our more prominent contracts for the right time. Now watch your step. We’re entering the elevator.”

“Elevator? What the fuck kind of place is this?” I ask, linking my fingers around his wrist. I try to pull his hand from my eyes, but he doesn’t budge.

“A palace for our queen.” Dante eases me around and lifts his hand from my face. He doesn’t let me get more than a glimpse at the mirrored wall of the elevator as it hums to life and the world shifts with its ascension. “Somewhere more worthy. Plus, there are enough rooms that we won’t ever have to share, even if all of Hell decides to come to the Mortal Realm.” Scooping me into his arms, Dante caresses his lips to mine, using the soft sweetness of his tongue to hold my attention hostage.

I kiss him deeper, stroking my tongue over the barbells in his mouth until he forks his tongue and kisses me in a way he never has before. The new sensation feels almost like I’m kissing two people at the same time, but it’s not a fight for affection but more like teamwork to explore every inch of my mouth.

The elevator stops and Dante blindly carries me down a warm hallway that seems to go on for miles. My curiosity prods at me, and I slow our kiss and try to ease away. Dante tightens his fingers through my hair and holds me in place. His diamond-shaped pupils expand and retract, and he smiles at me in amusement.

“You’re driving me crazy. I’m dying to see everything,” I say, fake-glaring.

“If you feel like I’m driving you crazy now, just wait. I’ll give you a tour after I’m done having my way with you. I will not waste another second.” Dante glides his tongue across his bottom lip, drawing my attention back to his pouty, kissable mouth. “I’m already jealous enough by how excited you are about the place that you haven’t even considered what I’m about to do to you now. I should punish you for spending more time trying to disobey me than attempting to rip off my clothes.”

My mouth forms an O as I let his words sink in. The whole angel invasion thing stole the thoughts from my mind. “Are you sure it’s safe?” I regret my comment immediately. Of course it’s safe.

Dante groans deep in his throat and picks up his pace until we reach the end of a corridor. “Do you doubt my capability to protect you?”

I bare my bottom teeth. “I don’t.”

Kicking the door closed, he still doesn’t let me glance around. “Yet you say such preposterous comments, pretty soul.”

I search his eyes, knowing that there is one way to fix this. I can tell my comment bothered him even if it was unintentional. “Because I don’t know how else to ask for punishment. You might not give it to me right now even though I deserve it.”

His features sharpen with his desire as I get to him in the best way I know how. “Tell me why. I want to hear all the reasons why you’re my naughty girl.”

I raise my eyebrows, finding myself speechless for any reason that doesn’t sound lame. So instead, I say, “Make me.”

“What did you say?” Dante asks, his voice deepening.

I grin. “Make. Me.”

Growling, Dante hooks his arm around my waist and carries me to a bed finally fit for a beast of his size. I expect him to bend me over his knee, but he surprises me by setting me on the bed. I watch him open a couple of unpacked boxes until he pulls out some sort of sex positioner, covered in black velvet with four restraints.

“I’ve been dying to punish that bubble butt of yours on our new spanking bench,” Dante says, his smile widening as he watches my reaction.

Heat warms my cheeks, my whole body going haywire just thinking about how he restrained me in a sex swing. And now this? I’m nervous yet excited. The thrill of learning how to embrace this darkly delicious wild side of myself gets to me in a good way. I never even thought about liking this kind of thing, but Dante’s anticipation is enough for me to want to do anything to see him happy. Satisfied. He’s always so good to me even with his self-proclaimed flaws that I want to be the naughty girl he desires.

“I deserve it, don’t I?” I ask, lowering my voice to a breathless whisper.

“You do. Now come here, pretty soul. I’m going to spank the Hell into you until you scream halo.” Dante grabs me by my ankles and drags me to him.

I wiggle my ass, teasing him by moving and not making it easy to lock the cuff restraint around my wrist. “You can try.”

“But first, after you’re nice and secure, I’m going to plug you with something to encourage me.” Dante pops open a box with a small silicone butt plug.

I gasp a laugh in exasperation. I thought he was joking about having a butt plug for me with the words spank me etched into the pink heart-shaped jewel adhered to the bottom of the base. “You’re seriously going to bling-out my ass?”

He traces his fingers over the back of my thong. “You know I love you dolled up from lips to asshole.”

Fuck me. This is nuts. And so fucking hot.

Sliding his big hand under me, Dante lifts me onto the firm spanking bench he positions on the middle of his king bed. He gathers my hair in his hands and ties it up out of my face, giving me nothing to hide behind. Goosebumps prickle over my skin, and he teasingly hikes my dress up until he exposes my ass.

He hums and licks my butt cheek, working his mouth up until he hooks his fangs to the thin band of my panties. “I hope you’re ready for all the things I plan to do to you, pretty soul.”
