Cassius swears under his breath, but he doesn’t comment on my list. I wonder if he’ll show Raven what I put. She doesn’t even notice as she kisses Kase next.
Folding up the paper, Cassius tucks it away in his pocket. “I expect you guys to have everything in order when we return. I don’t want to have to come save your asses.”
I flash my fangs at him. “That’s the last thing you’ll ever do for my ass,” I snap, laughing at his reaction. He’s going to be fun to fuck with for the rest of eternity. “Just remember. When this is all over, you better fucking jump. Do you understand?”
Cassius doesn’t respond to me. He waits until Raven kisses Micah last and flies toward her.
I blink my eyes, summoning my strength as the two of them disappear in a flash of light, stinging my skin.
I scrub my hands down my face and turn my attention to Kase. He strolls toward me and swings and arm over my shoulders. I squeeze him as he inhales a deep breath.
“Are you ready to fuck shit up?” He summons red power in his palm.
I force myself to smile. “I thought you’d never ask.”
Chapter 8
CASSIUS
Godly Power
“THIS PLACE SUCKS and not in the good way.” Raven places her hands on her hips, peering at the pure white nothingness of my sanctuary. I wiped everything I’ve ever manifested to start with a clean slate for her to work with. It’s the only place in the universe that I can keep everyone out of. It’s also the one place that she can learn to access different planes purposefully and not by chance.
“I agree, so why don’t you do something about it? I’m not here to serve you. I know that the devils have spoiled you, but in my domain, you’re going to be doing shit for yourself.” I summon a chair and plop my ass into it, kicking my shoes off.
Am I being a dickhead? Maybe. But I know that she reacts best when she’s either scared, angry, or horny. Since she’s neither scared or horny, I need to piss her off.
Raven narrows her eyes at me. “You are the worst teacher I’ve ever had.” Striding to me, she stands on her tiptoes to add an extra inch of height to her frame in an attempt to tower over me. We’re more eye level than anything, because I purposely increase the height of the chair, so she has to look at me straight on.
Fire flashes in her eyes, and I know that we’re close to her getting a feel of how to use my plane. I want her to realize what it takes to start controlling the energy without training her with my words. Manifesting is mental. It comes from deep within our beings. Raven must know the sensation first before I can explain to her what it is.
“Let me sit down. I need a moment to process everything.” Raven nudges my shoulder with the back of her hand. “Please. My feet hurt. You try carrying around two spawns inside you.”
It takes everything in me not to give in to her request. But it’s important that I don’t. She needs to do this herself.
“No. I made this, so I get to sit in it.” I tighten my jaw and stand my ground.
“Then teach me how to make my own, fuckhead. We’re going to get nowhere if you’re just going to sit on your ass this whole time.” Raven jabs me in the chest with her finger next.
Again, I shake my head no. “Get your own chair.”
Fire flashes in her eyes, and she shoves her hands into my chest, knocking me out of the chair and onto my back. I hit the floor with a thud and gasp. I should’ve expected that. I was a dumb shit for not thinking she would just kick my ass and steal my chair.
She looks cute as hell doing so, all smug as she smiles at me and plops down. So I wave my hand and make the chair disappear. She screeches as she falls, but I summon a pillow to stop her from hitting the ground of the plane.
“You fucking asshole. I’m going to—” She summons the fire chain Lucian gave her, pulling it out of nowhere.
I whistle and clap my hands. “Look what you just did. You summoned Lucian’s chain. How did you do it? Talk me through it. Go over everything that went through your head for you to pull it into this plane.”
Raven glowers at me. “I don’t know.”
“Think. Come on. You’re smart. I know you are a bit emotional because of...” I twirl my finger at her round belly.
She whips the fire chain at me, nearly taking out my knees in the process. “I felt pissed the fuck off. You’re such a jerk. All I want to do is bend your ass over, rip down your pants, and see if there’s a literal stick stuck in your ass. That way I can yank it out and help you feel better. Maybe you won’t be such a douchebag.”
I clench my damn ass cheeks at the thought. Inhaling a deep breath, I turn around, knowing that I might regret this. I need to focus, and I know sometimes a distraction from everything going on will help. So I do her one better. Instead of making her wrestle me to follow through with her threat, I unfasten my belt, drop my pants, and bend over.
She gasps with a laugh, her high-pitched cackle echoing around us. I don’t even have a chance to move before she slaps her hot palm to my ass cheek, sending me stumbling.
