Page 57 of Damned By His Angel

“Get out of here, me and my grandbaby have a bath time to get to.” She shoos me out of Kingsley’s nursery.

“I expressed some milk for her and Mr. Snaggles is in her crib if you need him!” I call back. When we returned back to New York, Cronos and I moved into my parent’s house with Beth. Mom and Dad are staying at Uncle Bishop and Aunt Kiara’s until I overcome my fear of being away from the safety of the compound. Mom and Dad said we could build a house here, but the horrified look on Nos’s face told me that wasn’t an option.

Last week Dad came over and dropped off my old bear that I couldn’t sleep without as a child. I was shocked he still had the old thing. He told me some nights he would cuddle that bear and pretend it was me, that shit ate me up inside. He and I are trying to repair the damage I did to our relationship and we are taking a huge step in doing that tonight. I smile at my dark angel when I step out onto the porch. Cronos looks like a fucking snack in his jeans, Chucks and black hoodie with the hood pulled over his forehead.

God, I want you!

My pussy flutters but I force that bitch to remain calm, Nos refuses to touch me because the stupid fucking doctor said to wait six weeks after giving birth. I reminded him multiple fucking times that I am in fact a doctor myself! It’s pure torture being near him daily and sleeping next to him every night without being able to feel him inside me.

“Stop looking at me like that, angel,” he scolds gently. I bat my lashes and step into him, resting my palms flat against his chest as I peer up at him.

“Like what?” I hear the husky lilt to my own voice and can’t find it within myself to give a shit, he knows how bad I want him and I won’t feel ashamed for wanting my man.

He groans and tilts his head back staring up at the sky. “Lucifer, give me fucking strength,” he growls.

“No. Don’t give him strength!” I shout.

“You guys are weird!” I snap my head to the side to see London staring at us like we are a circus act, while Artemis stands there shaking with silent laughter.

“Don’t you have a country to run or some shit?” I snap as Cronos wraps an arm around my shoulders and tucks me into his side.

“Someone is grouchy.” London snickers.

“You would be too if you weren’t getting dicked!” My eyes widen the instant the words fly out of my mouth, Cronos and Artemis both laugh at my expense, I bury my face in Nos’s side.

“That is fucking nasty, you’re old and he’s my best friend!” I reel back and stare at London with my mouth hanging open in stupor.

“Time to go, baby!” Artemis quickly drags London after him toward Uncle Bishop’s house, with me and Cronos following after them at a slower pace.

“I am not that fucking old,” I growl under my breath.

“Age is nothing but a number, baby. She’s just angry because my brother is spending so much time with Kingsley and she’s worried he’s gonna want a kid of his own.”

“I should spite her and poke holes in his condoms!” Cronos laughs.

“I like seeing you petty,” he coos.

“Give me your dick and you won’t have to deal with my bitchy moods.”

“Amelia!” I freeze on the spot and cringe as I slowly turn to see my Dad, Uncle Gage, Uncle Rook and Uncle Vincent standing at the edge of the porch of Uncle Bishop’s house. My dad looks like he wants to flay me alive but when he turns his angry glare to Cronos it darkens. “I will slice you into little fucking pieces?—”

“If you heard what she said properly, then you would know I am the one being molested, not the other way around.” I balk at Cronos.

“You fucking traitor!” I shout as I shove him away from me. The fucker just laughs when I stomp away from him. I don’t make it more than five steps before his arm bands around my waist and I’m hoisted off my feet with a huff. The asshole places a kiss on my neck, sending a shiver down my spine.

“Don’t be mad,” he begs.

“I am so mad at you right now,” I growl.

“The doctor said I couldn’t penetrate you but he never said I couldn’t eat your pretty cunt.” He keeps his voice low enough so that only I can hear, making fire burn inside my veins.

“Don’t tease me,” I growl as he places me on my feet and turns me to face him.

“There is no way I will be able to resist you after you claim your vengeance, baby. Be a good girl and I promise I will have you quivering and screaming my name before the night is out.” His promise spurs me into action, I tear out of his hold and practically run to the bunker out back where the others are waiting, I don’t even glance at them as I make my way inside. The promise of coming on Cronos’s face has me wanting this to be over quickly.

Luka pulls the final door open for me and I’m instantly hit by the scent of urine. Working in a hospital has made me accustomed to the scent so it doesn’t bother me like it does the others. The sight of Colson strung up with his arms above his head and the tips of his toes touching the ground brings a sense of joy to me. He had planned to ruin my family and take my baby from me. I could have moved on from him hurting me and overcome that trauma, but he chose to come after me and hurt me worse.

I feel Nos at my back when Colson lazily lifts his head, the sight of me has his eyes widening in surprise.
