Page 61 of Lucifer's Redemption

Before I could concede, to ease my guilt of taking her job, Luci and Hades both let out a firm, ‘no.’ Alana turned to sulk back down the aisle.

My lip wobbled. I felt so bad. She was so sad.

“Luci, what if—” his mouth met my lips, forcing his tongue into my mouth. He squeezed my bum, and I let out a sigh while my hips pushed further into his groin.

“Eww, that’s fucking gross.”

I pulled my lips away from Luci to correct Loki, but Luci forced my head back to him with his fingers to finish kissing me. When Luci’s assault finished, he pushed me to his shoulder.

“Don’t say bad words,” I whispered to Loki, who only snickered.

Chapter 25

Uriel

DinnerwithLuci’swholefamily was uneventful. Luci caught me several times trying to feed my vegetables to Cerberus.Cerberus doesn’t like vegetables any more than I do.He snubbed his nose after the second bite and began gagging with the next, which only got me caught again. My bright red face gave me away, and Luci scowled at me.

Even the lip wobble didn’t work.

“Don’t be naughty, bunny.” He told me.

I feel utterly terrible for even trying, but those veggies looked so gross. They looked like tiny trees cut down from some miniature forest. How can I eat a veggie that looks like that?

The disappointment on Luci’s face when he found out I was trying to feed Cerberus made me feel so utterly guilty. I wasn’t his good girl right now, and that made my heart tighten in my chest.

I have to get back in his good graces.

Luci and Hades continued to speak about Mr. Zeus and whether his intentions were true. Ember repeatedly insisted they were. Mr. Zeus became a new person and was trying to be the best leader he could be after all these years.

Mr. Zeus was just having a hard time accepting that not everyone liked him after so many years of his ‘whoring’ around. Whatever that means. I’m guessing it meant he wasn’t paying attention to his duties very much.

I played with my food, twirling the silver fork around my plate to make it look like I was eating. I liked a little meat, so I had my fill until three-quarters of a steak still sat on my plate along with those icky trees called broccoli and mashed potatoes.

I wonder, what's for dessert?

My elbow sat on the white linen tablecloth, supporting my head as I continued to move food around. Luci had one hand holding my leg, squeezing it from time to time. It gave me those funny feelings again in my stomach that I like so much. Sometimes the feeling made my girl parts tingle and made me think back to all the kissing we did earlier, which made me come to one very important conclusion.

I really like kissing.

Not just like, I love kissing. Itwas so much fun; itmade your body warm, melting into the other person, and with Luci being my mate, it madeit all the better. Technically, he is my first and last kiss, and I will never have to worry about finding my soulmate because he is sitting right beside me.

I wiggled in my seat, causing Luci to squeeze my leg to be still. His side-eye, as much as he wanted it to be scary, wasn’t scary to me. It made me grin at how beautiful his eyes were, those dark brown eyes that I could dip my soul into and come right back out. He curled his lip in amusement as he inched up my thigh with his really big hand.

Oh, geez. Here come the tingles.

We have a bond, sure, and we are supposed to be together. The bond pulls us and makes us want to stay in each other’s presence, but each day I am with him, it gets stronger, and I wanted more of him.

After my lesson-gone-bad with Ares today, a lot of the things we discussed had me squirming in my seat. Now that I knew Luci was my mate, he can help me with the tingles. His fiery touches that went around my bum had me really, really excited. So much so, that I wonder what other parts he could touch to make them feel better.

The tingles between my legs were the worst they’ve ever been after he pulled on my hair to keep my mouth open, but I persevered, ready for him to push me the way he liked. I figured that out about him after he said he was the God of Destruction: he likes to be in control. I like to follow.

He must know all about the bond since his mom is such a good person and helps pair souls together. Those tingles between my thighs will be taken care of soon, and hopefully not the way Ares talked about.

It’s like shoving a sausage into a donut hole.

I crossed my legs, picking at the mashed potatoes on my plate. Luci lifted his hand to situate it and put it back on top of my leg. I squirmed again. Luci looked at me, his nose flaring as he squeezed my leg harder.

“What are you thinking about, bunny?” His lips brushed my ear.
