If the adrenaline hadn’t been so rapidly fading, I probably would have asked about that washing part, but the sleep part of that statement distracted me.I really was tired.
“Fine.”I tilted my head up toward him.
“Come here.”
He reached up from my waist to cradle my head, pressing his lips against mine.Without really meaning to, I opened my mouth to him.
Lucifer took that as an invitation, and he soon filled me, giving me a taste of him, that wonderful fire-and-spice flavor.I shivered, not from cold or fear, but from his touch, his lips on mine, his tongue in my mouth.
Before I’d had enough, Lucifer pulled back.“That’s enough to seal it.Now, take off your clothes.”
“What?!”
He rolled his eyes.Lucifer the fucking Devil his own damn self had the nerve to roll his eyes at me.I’d had a night, damn it.
“I’m your boyfriend, and I want your clothes off.”
He said that with a good amount of glee.Gods, but he was so damn smug.
“So not part of the deal.”
“I’m not letting you sleep in them, and the smell of that place still clings to them, so Trony can make a bonfire out of them for all I care.Either you take them off or I do.Your choice.”
“You’re…you’re just…”
“Your boyfriend?”he said with a sweet, mirthful grin I wanted to kiss off his face.With my fist.Yes, I wanted to kiss that grin off his face with my fist.
“I’m taking them off because they’re dirty.Turn around.”
Lucifer crossed his arms and shook his head in exasperation but turned.“You had my cock inside you earlier tonight,” he said as I peeled my T-shirt off.“You asked for that.You came underneath me, and your cum is still sticking to my chest, right where you put it.”I had a hard-on, because the asshole kept narrating all of that.What was his damn problem?“And before I spread you out underneath me and filled you up, I sealed you with the plug you selected.How curious it is that you fall back on modesty now.”
“Oh, fuck you.”I tossed my jeans and boxers to the ground.
Lucifer turned.“As I said, you will enjoy it more the other way around.”
He looked down at my erection, smirked, and peeled his shirt off.Then his pants.
Fuck, this was too much like earlier, and my cock was having a Pavlovian reaction to what Lucifer was doing, and unless I was mistaken, that was exactly what the Devil wanted.
Oh, how I hated him.Would he push me against the wall of the shower stall and shove himself deep inside me?Nope, couldn’t think about anything like that, it was too much.But damn, he was probably strong enough to hold me, and maybe if he brought his wings out, they would catch the droplets of water, and his feathers would stroke my skin and—
“Nelly,” he said, and I tasted the magic in his voice.He had my attention and held it with the iron force in his sapphire eyes, even as he undid his pants and took them off.“Tell me exactly what you want tonight.”
I felt his magic reach for me and wind itself around me like silk sheltering a butterfly.But it was just that, something that wrapped itself around my will without ever exerting the force I knew he could have used to make me do whatever he wanted.
I swallowed and licked my lips.Tell me,the magic whispered, making the tip of my tongue tingle.“I want…I want you to hold me.I want to see your wings under the water and feel them when you push me against the wall and fuck me.”
The Devil walked toward me, naked, beautiful like night and shadow and perfect black obsidian birthed from the earth.He cupped my chin.
“All right,” he said, and kissed me.

Lucifer
Iwasseriouslyreconsideringthe chains, even the cage.A combination thereof.How one single human could bring me to the verge of losing my shit and going satanic on everything in a five-mile radius was, frankly, beyond me.Couldn’t Nelly have just hit his head on the damn rock he killed the zombie with four years ago and suffered from amnesia?He’d absolutely adore me by now, even if he’d snapped out of the amnesia at some point.Maybe Tiamat would tell me if there was a magical way to induce amnesia.That would solve a lot of the issues I was currently dealing with—to wit, one stubborn necromancer and all the things he made me want to do.
At least he’d struck a deal with me, and it was a good one in terms of keeping him from removing himself from my bed ever again.I was sure that if I played my cards right and caught him at the right moment, I’d be able to get him to agree to another deal, one that benefited me even more.
