I shimmied the tight fabric over my thighs and slid the tiny straps onto my arms. The dress was backless, showing my skin from my shoulders to barely above my ass. I zipped up the lower part, covering my thong. A small closure at the top that had a long chain with little diamonds hanging from it. Zell was going to have to fasten it for me because I couldn’t reach it.
It took me a while to make my hair perfect, but once done, I smiled at my success, then threw on a little makeup. I headed to my jewelry box and took out the only thing I had with value, my beautiful diamond earrings. After I put them in my ears, I slid on my heels before heading to the mirror.
As I gazed at my reflection, I felt beautiful. The dress grabbed every curve of my body, accentuating it. Joy filled me and I smiled before I realized what I was doing. The happiness dropped from my face and was replaced with wrinkling of the skin between my eyes.
Why the fuck am I smiling?
A demon showed up at my bar, fucked me, then told me I had to work for him. Now I’m playing dress up and grinning like a fool.
What the fuck is wrong with me?
As I thought about taking the dress off, a squeak alerted me my bedroom door had opened.
“You don’t have time to change, Kavari. Now grab your belongings and get in the car.”
When I turned toward Zell, I was in shock by how handsome he looked in a black suit, but that wasn’t going to keep me from being angry. “Stop reading my thoughts!”
Storming past him, I headed into the living room, grabbed my backpack purse off the table, and flung it onto my shoulder. I crossed my arms and stood by the front door, waiting for him.
When he entered the room, his eyes devoured me from head to toe and I swallowed hard, making sure I kept my mind clear.
“Are you ready?” he asked.
Even though I was angry, I still needed my dress fastened, so I turned my back toward him. “Can you latch this first?”
He picked up the hanging chain, his warm fingers lightly grazing my skin. When he was done, he slid his hands onto my shoulders and I was ready for anything he was willing to give me. He leaned into my ear and I closed my eyes, tilting my head, awaiting a kiss on my neck.
“Just so you know, little bee,” he whispered, his voice deep and sexy. “I don’t read your thoughts, I listen to them.”
He could have told me I looked beautiful since I had spent over an hour getting ready, instead of correcting me. I rolled my eyes and yanked out of his grasp.
“Shut up,” I mumbled and we exited my apartment.
Chapter 7
Zell
Kavariwasdressedtokill. It seemed fitting since we were heading to obtain contracts on souls. She was driving us to the location I gave her, bestowing me with ample time to give her body the attention it needed. My eyes drifted across her perfect breasts with pebbled nipples visible through the thin fabric. She wasn’t wearing a bra, which would give me easier access later when I fucked her, and the concept exhilarated me.
Her thoughts told me she was walking a fine line between hating me and giving me complete control over her body. I was hopeful she would settle on the latter of the two.
Once we were at the bar, she reached into the back seat, grabbed a smaller, more appropriate purse, and started transferring her things to it. When I noticed she was almost done, I exited the car and went to her side. She seemed surprised when I opened her door.
So, demons are gentlemen?
I snickered at her thoughts before I offered her my hand, helping her out of the car.
“Thanks,” she said.
Placing my hand on her bare lower back, I led her toward the entrance. “Not all demons are gentlemen. You got lucky.”
“Lucky?”
A small, amused laugh left her and I smiled. Once she realized all the perks that came with bidding for me, I knew she’d understand how fortunate she was.
The doorman grabbed the iron handle of the glass door and held it for us to enter the high-end restaurant. It felt fortuitous to be escorting such a beautiful specimen when the heads of almost every man and woman turned to look at us while we made our way to the bar.
I pulled out a stool and held her hand as she scooted onto it.
