Page 34 of How to Accidentally Become the Devil

“We’re still working on that,” Maddy sighs.

At least she’s not projecting like Luc. Zar thinks, and I can’t help but agree. That would be awful.

“Of course. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help.”

“I will. Thank you, Georgym. For now, get some rest and enjoy the end of hysteria.”

“Thank you, Your Highness.” He bows before turning away and heading back the way he came.

“He’s a sweetheart,” Maddy smiles at the retreating demon.

“That’stwelve, Princess,” I growl.

“Twelve what?” She tilts her head, trying to figure out the meaning behind the random number.

“Twelve spankings. That’s what.”

“How?! I was only at five!”

“Yeah, and you got one more when you disappeared to get Fireball and now you just doubled it for calling another demon asweetheart. That’s being generous. I’d rather chain you to the bed for a week. Don’t push me.” I narrow my eyes at my mate, daring her to do just that.

She gasps, her hands flying to her hips. “You’re being ridiculous. I didn’t even mean it that way.” She rolls her eyes.

“Oh, I’m ridiculous, am I? Belz? Zeph? Zar? Anyone agree with me? That our mate shouldn’t call anothermaledemon a term of endearment?”

Zeph looks between me and Maddy before raising his hands like a coward and saying, “I’m not in this.”

His twin has no such qualms. “Absolutely. Especially the termIcallher.” If looks could kill, I sure wouldn’t want to be Maddy right now.

Our brat of a mate just rolls her eyes,again. “You’re both ridiculous. Belzar, tell them they’re being dumb.”

“Well… thinking about it from Zarreth’s point of view… I would be pretty upset if you called another demonAmica Mea… Just saying.” Belz shrugs.

“Three against two. We win,” I declare with a smirk.

“Fine. Whatever,” she sighs. “I won’t call anyone else any sort of term of endearment, you big babies.”

“You wanna add another?” I raise a brow.

“You got your twelve. You’re not getting anymore,” she grumbles.

“We’ll see about that.” I grin.

Madelyne

We make it back to my room and I’m ready to collapse on the bed and sleep for the next twelve hours when Oz scoops me off my feet. Squealing, I smack wherever I can reach, but he just chuckles.

“Did you think you were getting out of your spankings, Princess?” He sits on my bed and flips me over his lap with my ass in the air.

Elphaba and Glinda don’t even attempt to bat him away. What the fuck? I thought we had an understanding. Now would be the time to smack my mate in the face. Yet, they’re perfectly still, allowing him to manhandle me. We’re going to need to have a talk, my wings and I.

My other mates walk into the room, closing the door behind them. Zephyr hoots as he runs to grab a chair from the sitting room and takes a front-row seat to my impending spanking.

Oz flips my skirt up and the cold air hits my bare ass. Groans fill the room from all of my mates as they get a glimpse of the black thong doing nothing to cover my naughty bits.

“You’ve been hidingthisunder that skimpy skirt all day?” Oz groans, cupping my ass cheek in one hand as he holds me still with his other on my back.
