Who needs him? Or any man! Love is for people with not enough wine in their hands!
A fucking demon attacked me last night, and the day had the audacity to shine as if nothing happened?
The fur spiked like needles as it rose further out of the water. I followed the trail of spiked fur down its back to the base of its tail, which curved up and… ended in Cherry’s back.
His coal eyes took me in with a downright predatory expression as a crooked smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.“I don’t think I’ll be letting you go after we finish this quest.”
A devilish grin sent shock waves straight to my core. “I mean, I’m going to take you as my wife when this is all over.”
“No. They were rapists. Please kill rapists.” The demon grinned a wicked smile, and I sent a curse down to my lady bits for getting a little too excited. “This I can do.” “That’s the spirit,” I said,
A small smile graced his lips. “Every scratch,” he whispered, his tone gentle and comforting, “every bruise, I will pay back in fire and blood.”
“Don’t say my name. It feels weird.”
‘What it must be like to have a family that close. I’ve never had these things. I don’t know how I’d acclimate to them.’ But I know that when I look at you, it makes me want to try.”
“I can be your villain,” he whispered. “Why don’t you let me take away the burden of choice for a while?”
“Marrying a dragon doesn’t seem so bad anymore, does it?” I giggled into the soft pillow, unable to waste the strength to swat at him. “The council has deliberated. While your arguments are sound and just, we must gather more evidence before a ruling can be reached.” Burying his nose in my hair, he breathed deep. “Madam, this is a kangaroo court,” he said ruefully. “A kangaroo court?” “You have intentionally ignored evidence that would be in favor of the defendant.” His thumb traced delightful circles on my arm, pulling me closer to sleep. “Evidence like what?” I murmured. He paused for a

“Well, we just started our new life as pirates. Want to see what liquor the men raided and get fucked up?” My eyes grew wide at the idea before I nodded slowly. “Yes. Yes, I would like that very much.”
“Cin, at this point, I’m positive you could walk up to that man and say the weather is nice, and he’d take it as an excuse to bed you.”
Then, for sure, I’d tell Fallon how I felt. It was the last thing I could remember before blacking out.
“Shouldn’t I get at least fifty points for curing your headache?” His grin was teasing and horribly adorable. I settled into his side again and wrapped an arm around his waist. He smelled like a bed of roses and home. I don’t know when his scent began to make me feel like the world fell away, but it did. It just felt right. He felt right. “How about nine hundred?” Beneath my ear, I could feel his heart hammer in his chest. “Could you repeat that, Rabbit?” My cheeks burned as I felt the familiar sting of embarrassment. But I wouldn’t back away this time. I was done with that. “Fallon… I think I

“I’m saying you’re going to have to wait a while longer. I can’t very well abandon the crew to fight alone now, can I?” With that, he got up and walked out the door. I blinked, stunned. How dare he? “You… you did this on purpose!” I roared after him. His sinister laugh could be heard down the hall. “I love you too,” he called back.
“Yes,” he sighed. “But I’ve loved you since day one.” My heart fluttered in my chest at the surprise confession.
“No? I mean, I probably wouldn’t have jumped on your dick right away. I like to think I would have held out a few days at least.”
“Am I really? We don’t need to have a ceremony or register with the church?” “Darling, we burned down the church.”
“It’s not my fault you filled me with your dragon slut magic.”
side. “Madam Shadow, did you get a new nickname while I was gone?” I shook my head. “Not to my knowledge.” The silver-haired man looked between Fallon and me. A crease forming between his brow. “You are the wife of the Shadow Dragon, right?” My demon tightened his grip around my shoulders. “She is.”
“It won’t be easy,” Dante sighed. “I’ll be as useless to you as a newborn pup once we arrive. But I was a boy when that damn witch began stealing demon children for her dark practices. My brothers, my friends, were all sacrificed in her dark arts. So I will push myself to the limit if it means I can see her dead.”
“So, are we going to break in that new bed or what?” Fallon blinked down at me. His hand came up to caress my cheek. “You are my heart.”
“I want you to flip me over and fuck me senseless. I want your hand grabbing my neck as you spank me until I come. Then I want you to pull my hair as you rut into me. And I want it now.” The look on his face was almost comical. Fallon’s mouth hung open for a moment before snapping it shut. “I love you,” he whispered. “I know,” I said, nodding. “Now flip me over and tell me I’m a good girl.”
