Friends with the Monsters (Friends with the Monsters, #1)

His legend says he was in a hunting party that got lost in a winter storm and he resorted to cannibalism to survive.

I know there’s nothing I can really do for him but offer what I have and hope one day he will find something that will sustain him the way sins nourish me.

“How they get the power. Witches aren’t born with any magic. They have to take it from other beings, creatures like me and the one you call Uncle.”

“Rituals, murder, dark magic, very dark magic.”

Snagging open the top drawer, I peer in to see all of my more adventurous toys.

Buzz, my go-to favorite, is in my nightstand, but I’m thinking I need more than just a quick wham-bam-thank-you-ma’am.

little, pink, rubber nipple cups

I need a few good orgasms this morning before I go to sleep.

I toss the wand on the bed so I can make sure I end the night on a good note.

reach between my legs to make sure the section cup is adhered to the glass.

I’m going to leave an ass print on the window, but I don’t care.

“Thank you for your services, sir.” I go to grab the shaft as I might if I were shaking a hand,

“Jerk, it’s my window, and if I want to fuck it, I will!”

“He could watch, but I’m not into men.”

Calix chuckles. “When should I come?” “As often as possible,” I reply without thinking. “Sounds like a plan. I’ll see you soon, bye.”

“Yeah, this is my cell. Rocky doesn’t understand personal boundaries. He’s the one who answered before.” “If I ever run into a Rocky, I might punch him just in case it’s him.”

“Don’t do that. He’ll just think it’s foreplay.”

What’s the worst that could happen?

but this is the first time I’ve invited a man home with me.

His dark jeans are fitted just right and cuffed at the bottom, where I can see a pair of heavy boots.

“But these are both males.” He tilts his head. “I know, but I didn’t want Leo to be lonely, so I just pretend.” I lean in a little closer, acting like the lions can hear me. Calix shakes his head a little. “That’s kind of adorable,” he comments, like I’ve shocked him a bit.

“Your home is almost as beautiful as you are.”

His eyes are a striking shade of hazel, and when he tilts his head, examining me, they almost look green.

I can see the contrast of the darker tips of his hair layered through his choppy haircut. The back nearly reaches his nape, but the sides aren’t as long.

His lips are almost root-beer colored, a much darker shade than my own...

Calix kisses me as if our mouths already know each other.

He reaches for me, his hands going under my arms as he hauls me into his lap to straddle his hips.

I grin when I feel just how much he’s already affected by our sweet touches.

I’m really hoping he knows what to do with the sizeable bulge under me.

The short hairs covering his chest tickle my palms.

“My tits have blue balls. Give me a break.”

“Knock it off.” I wave my hand around. “The testosterone is getting thick, not to mention I’m already horny.” Both men turn to eye me. I feel the atmosphere shift as a bounty of sins fills the air. I toss my hands up. “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.”

“And you want the males to prove which is the superior?” Grim actually grows a little taller.

grab a pair of jeans. Maybe these will keep my greedy pussy from telling everyone in the house I need a stiffy.

“Look at you,” Aeson coos at me. “You brought a man home, I’m so proud of you.” “Three.” I pull my jeans up and go on to my toes to get them over my hips. “Yes! I knew you were listening to me all these years.” She sighs wistfully, like a proud mother.

“Don’t sell yourself short. You’re not fucking all three of them yet,” Aeson argues.

So much for the cold wipe making me forget how badly I want something between my legs.

My eyes travel from his bare feet, up past his black pants, and over his loose black shirt, until they land on his achingly beautiful face.

Hell, if people knew this is what Death looked like, they would probably run to him.

“Yes, do you find me off-putting?” Grim tilts his head away from me like he doesn’t want to hear the answer.

“This is my true self.” Grim

“Why did you ask to speak with me alone? Would you like me to tell the others to go?”

“You dirty cheat, she doesn’t even know what you are!” “Shut up, Berserker,” Calix grinds out.

“You’ve been watching her for years. You think I didn’t sense either of you?” Grim includes Calix in the stare down.

“I kept to the bargain.” Calix steps closer to Grim,
