Why the fuck did those words sound like a lie to my ears?

I was seriously losing it today.

Her palm settled over the hand I had between her legs, pausing my movement. “What if you’re the one who falls?”

Pulling free of her body, I gripped her hips and flipped her onto her back. God, she was beautiful, cheeks flushed, breath shallow, and eyes dilated with the haze of lust and arousal.

“My falling in love is something you’ll never have to worry about. In fact, there isn’t a chance in hell of that happening.”

She lifted her chin. “Why is that?”

“Because I don’t have a heart. As I told you, I’m Gio Drakos’s creation. Having a heart means I have weaknesses.”

“And you can’t have any,” she added. Something like sadness passed in her eyes but disappeared just as fast.

I nodded.

“Then I have nothing to fear.” She fisted my shirt, drawing me to her. “This is just sex.”

I staredinto Nyx’s lust-glazed eyes, not understanding what was happening to me.

Her easy acceptance of our situation, of my never being able to love her, of us having an end date, of this being just sex, left uneasiness in the pit of my stomach.

What the fuck was wrong with me?

“This is more than just sex, Goddess.”

A crease formed between her brow. “What label would you put on it, then?”

I kissed her, biting her lower lip and giving it a hard enough pinch that it would leave it swollen. “It’s hot, dirty, depraved sex that leaves you bruised at times and requires you to wear dresses designed specifically to hide the marks left over from our activities.”

Her frown disappeared as her lips tugged up, and she touched the spot where I’d bitten her a few minutes ago. “Not sure how I could have explained it to my parents or brothers.”

“You asked for it.”

“I did.” She brushed her naked body against mine. “Do it again.”

The way her voice grew heavy with lust had my cock ready to break free of my pants, and I tugged her flush to me.

Leaning over her and caging her with my arms, I stared down at her. “You make no sense, Olympia Nyx Mykos. Never have I met a woman like you. You’re fascinating as fuck.”

Her face broke out into a big smile, transforming her from the beauty she already was to the goddess I called her. “I think that’s the best compliment anyone’s given me.”

“You’d rather be fascinating than beautiful?”

“Hell, yes. Beauty is fleeting. I’d rather be someone notorious and memorable.”

I stared down at her, feeling the knot in my stomach tighten. For a split second, I could almost hear Kasen’s warning in the back of my head.“She’s not yours.”

The hell she wasn’t.

Pushing my thoughts back, I focused on the woman in my arms. “Then you definitely achieved your objective. There is no one else like you. Can we stop talking and fuck?”

She pursed her lips together, trying to hold in a smile, and then nodded, wrapping her arms around my neck.
