“I am Ares, the God of War. And you are Enyo, Goddess of War. I did not kill him, but I am here to kill you.”
“You were planning to kill me! I’d say that’s more rude than calling someone who is clearly an asshole an asshole!”
The hot-older-guy look was seriously working for him.
I was squarely into guys, but just looking at her made my insides feel weird.
I was getting hot, but I hadn’t brought any water, only tequila, which on reflection wasn’t very helpful in a desert.
If Aladdin aged as well as George Clooney, this man would be the result.
Why am I attracted to a miserable, humorless brute? I should add that to the list of questions.
Love was one of the most cruel things in the world, and Aphrodite embodied it all.
My instinct to compare him to the Incredible Hulk died on my lips,
He kissed me with the ferocity of a man starved, as though he had never tasted anything like me before, and I knew that because it was exactly how I felt. Never, ever had a kiss been so consuming, so full of promise, so damned right.
“Sweetie, I’m fucking ancient. There’s not a lot I can’t do.”
Because whenever I was with Aphrodite, I was only aware of her. I was never aware of my own feelings or body. I always wanted more of her delight, her pleasure, her satisfaction, only considering my own release later. But with Bella... I’d desired her for my own pleasure, unable to stop myself imagining what it would feel like to be inside her, what her own pleasure would have felt like for me.
“Oh yes, armor-boy. I’ve got a fucking sword.”
Her excitement was infectious, and I found myself longing to see her smile. How could one person take so much pleasure from the world around her, when she had been treated so unfairly?
“Why not stick with asshole? It appears to be your favorite word.” “I’ve decided to reserve it just for you,”
“I would have dropped the towel for you. If we had been alone.” I didn’t expect him to reply, and I almost let out a moan when his husky voice filled my head a second later. “I would have ripped it from you with my teeth.”
“When I need an excuse to be close to you, I dance,”
“It is rare to see such understanding of a person’s darker traits. Such optimism could transform a life. Many lives.”
