“This isn’t over yet, Ripley. Let’s table that discussion when I don’t have a hot librarian on my junk.”
Bram grabbed my hips and flipped me on my back. He ran his nose up my neck and nipped at my jaw.
“I’m an apex predator. I hope you didn’t think I was going to let you be on top our first time.”
“Dude, apex predator yourself all over my vagina,” I growled, pulling him down for a kiss.
“I might break you, little witch. The god would get mad.”
“Pssh. I’ve had several threesomes with Reyson and Balthazar, and nothing got broken. I loved every minute of it. I like it rough,” I purred, reaching between us to rub his cock. There wasa lotof promise there.
“Oh, really?” he asked, nibbling on my collarbone.
“It would mean a lot to Reyson to have a threesome with you and me.”
I was just throwing that out there. It wasn’t just that Reyson asked me about it and was obsessed with it since reading the entire fiction section in the Library of the Profane. I knew Reyson really cared for Bram the same way he did Balthazar. He cared for Felix and Gabriel, too, just in different ways. Was Bram even into that kind of thing? I was usually good at picking up vibes, and so were Reyson and Balthazar.
“Reyson is insanely attractive and an excellent kisser.”
“Wait, you kissed Reyson?”
Where the fuck was I when that happened? It was probably sexy as hell. Why wasn’t I invited?
“Reyson missed me when I was gone, and he was grateful I made it possible for him to get here and help rescue you. He showed his appreciation with a big wet kiss.”
Oh, yeah. I was in a fucking cage when that went down. As if I needed another reason to murder Dorian Gray. I didn’t want to think about that. I wanted Bram naked. There were many different options for cock piercings. I wasdyingto know what he had.
I snapped my fingers and removed our clothes so that they were neatly folded on the dresser.
“That’s a handy trick,” Bram said between furious kisses.
“You’ve never been with a witch before?”
“Once, but she preferred me ripping her clothes off. After I got my cock cursed trying to collect payment from a witch, I decided not to risk it again.”
I bit his bottom lip.
“When I have access to my closets and am not just existing in the clothes they kidnapped in me, it would be sexy as fuck to have you destroy my clothes just to fuck me.”
“Shut up, Ripley,” Bram growled.
He took my nipple in his mouth and bit down. His thumb found my clit and started making slow circles. Oh, Lilith, he knew what he was doing. I wanted him to keep going, but he was the one that announced his cock was pierced, and I couldn’t see it. He was covered in tattoos, and I wanted to see those too. Bram was beautiful. I just wanted to take him in for a minute.
“Wait, wait,” I said. “Let me look at you for a minute and appreciate you. I know now those aren’t just tattoos on your skin. You’re beautiful, and I want to stare.”
Bram sat back on his haunches, and I sat up. He was beautiful the way sharks are beautiful. He had this air of danger about him, and I’d seen him kill. But I’d also seen his soul. I saw it when we stayed up all night talking, and he offered to bake Felix a cake when I forgot his birthday. I saw it the way he got the Hellhounds to rally and fight back.
He was covered in tattoos. They differed from the demon women at Akul’s estate. They just put their sigils anywhere. Bram’s were hidden in this amazing artwork. You had to look twice to find them. Bram’s entire body was a work of art. I traced my hand down the dragon on his chest until my fingers rested on his nipple piercings.
“I’m guessing you didn’t get these in Hell. There are probably some shitty rules about it.”
“There are, but Talvath doesn’t care about those. He’s a gifted artist. I told him what I wanted, and he did them. Do you really want to talk about my tattoos?”
“No. I wanted you to look at me so I could tell you how special you are. I knew it that night we spent together just talking and snuggling, and you offered to make Felix’s cake. I’m a beast at making any potion or salve, and I’m a decent cook unless it involves baking. I would have ruined that cake. Felix shows affection by being a dick. I can’t remember if he was mean to you or not, but you offered anyway. It meant a lot. Now, show me your cock piercing.”
Bram fell out laughing and gripped his cock.
“Talvath gives me inspirational speeches like that, but he never asks to see my junk at the end. It would be weird if he did. I like it when you do it.”
