“You fucking beautiful, infuriating, absolutely devastatingly pure soul.” Lucian leans back to meet my eyes. “You’re going to feel my darkness for the rest of eternity. Every time you look at me, you’ll get wet with excitement. You will crave me bending you over to fuck you over and over again. That I promise you.”
“We’ll see about that,” I say, laughing with my words.
Lucian narrows his eyes, flips me around, and pins me to the scorching wall with my hands above my head. His body presses flush against mine, and he uses his knee to lift me off my feet until I can feel the hardness of his cock against my ass. I moan as his hand slides around my side and down my stomach, and he slips his fingers into the waistband of my pants. My heart crashes against my rib cage, and I squirm, wanting nothing more than for him to hurry up. He purposely tortures me with the slow caress of his hand as it works its way down my pelvis.
With his free hand, he combs my hair off the back of my neck and licks my skin, sucking it in between his teeth and leaving a mark. It doesn’t hurt, but it does send a zap of power through my body.
“I’m going to enjoy you for as long as I want,” Lucian says, drawing his tongue up my throat until he sucks my earlobe. “This is for all of the times you rejected me.”
This bastard and his need to punish me in the best way possible.
“You can try to torture me all you want, but you’re only punishing yourself.” I moan again, wiggling and trying to shift my body to force him to touch me between my legs. “I like when you tease me like this. I know you’ll give in soon enough. You wanted me for far too long not to take what I offer immediately.” He can’t be the only cocky one, now, can he? I know how much he likes his games, and I’m willing to play them.
“You’re wrong.” Lucian tightens his hand through my hair. “I am a patient devil.”
This is going to turn into a battle of wills, and I am completely prepared to go down with this fight. I can’t help it.
“You’re only patient until someone else takes what you want,” I tease. I grin as he growls. “Have you forgotten that you’re not the only devil who wants me?”
“You bratty fucking soul.” Lucian flips me around, locks his fingers to my throat, and squeezes without cutting off my airway. I’m not even sure that he could if he wanted to. I’m in Hell, after all.
A smile lights my face, and I laugh, loving how annoyed he is that I don’t just obey him. He knew that I would never be an obedient little soul. I don’t comply without a fight. It’ll take a lot more than a growl to push me into submission.
Neither of us gets to find out because a screech rips through the air, stealing the warmth for my blood. A hulking figure flies into the room and crashes into the lava-like wall a couple of feet away. I startle at the sight of the disgusting demon. He’s the worst one I’ve seen yet, with swollen, bulbous blisters covering his body. Lucian sets me on my feet, summoning his fire chain, and lashes it at the demon, sending pus splashing across the floor.
The demon howls in agony.
Abandoning me, Lucian stomps toward the gross demonic man and roars, transforming into his Hell form to tower over the monstrous beast. I stare in shock with my body still buzzing and watch as Lucian swings his clawed hand, slashing it across the demon’s chest, cutting through more disgusting blisters.
I realize now that the blisters aren’t natural. The liquid inside them sizzles across the floor as if his skin has been infused with holy water. He’s been hit with heavenly light.
“You better have a damn good reason for interrupting me with my queen,” Lucian says, shaking the demon hard enough to smack the monster’s head into the wall. “I was about to fuck her brains out.”
I palm my forehead at his nonchalance at his declaration of us about to get it on.
“I’m sorry, my liege. It’s urgent. You’re being summoned to the Mortal Realm.” The demon flicks his attention to me.
Punching the demon in the face, Lucian smashes the demon’s cheek into the glowing wall. He leans in and roars into his ear. “Look at her again, and you will no longer have eyes to see. I don’t give a fuck if I’m being summoned. I’m busy. Tell Kase to fuck off and wait his turn. Raven is mine.”
Ah, fuck.
Lucian has a case of possessiveness. He knew that the devils were trying to contact him, but he ignored them to be with me. I can’t blame him. I might have done the same. But now that I know they were trying to reach him, I feel as if I must say something.
Gathering my nerves, I risk facing the wrath of Lucian. The demon still tries to break free as if it’s even possible to be a devil. I gently touch my hand to Lucian’s lower back and rub a soft circle.
“Lucian, it might be something important. We should at least check, okay?” I keep my voice low and brace myself for Lucian to spin around and growl at me.
The heat of his anger radiates from his very being, stealing away his ability to think about anything other than lashing out at the demon and anyone else who dares interrupt us.
“We can finish what we started later. Promise. This isn’t going to be the only time you’ll ever get to show me what it’s like to be with you.” I continue to stroke my fingers against the skin of his lower back, feeling his muscles ripple as he settles down.
Dropping the demon to the floor, Lucian kicks him, sending him rolling. The demon scrambles away without another word, trying to escape Lucian’s need to punish him for being a messenger.
“If I was someone else, you would continue and ignore every distraction,” Lucian says, his voice laced with his annoyance.
I press my lips together. “Don’t even fucking start by comparing the relationship I have with others with what I’m trying to build with you. I mean it. You will not make me feel bad that I worry about what is happening in the Mortal Realm. You damn well know that Kase wouldn’t call you if he didn’t actually need you.”
“I’m not trying to make you feel bad, Raven,” Lucian snaps. He turns to me with fire in his eyes. “All I’m saying is—”
