  “You are disobeying me, Kai,” he warned when he was done.

  She frowned. “How does this work? I am your slave? I must do as you say, because you called me?”

  He nodded his head, lowering her hand to his chest and coaxing the other to continue caressing his cock. “It’s true I can control you because I called you, and you will please me because I wish it.”

  “Now your true self shows. You’re evil like the rest.”

  “All who are from the underworld are so.”

  She yanked her hands away and stood. “I’m going back to my room. Don’t call me again. I won’t come.” Strolling toward the wall, she swallowed hard, noting that her body didn’t fade, that she didn’t feel that rush inside her belly that seemed to indicate she was about to slide over space and time. She came to a stop inches from the wall and looked back at him. “I said I’m leaving.”

  He waited silently.

  She sighed. “I can’t go back without your permission, can I?”

  “No.”

  “If you are more powerful than I am, why do you need me to kill Ove? Why does anyone?” Placing a palm flat on the wall at either side of her head, she stood there unmoving with her forehead pressed against the barrier. Confusion and desire roiled inside. She wanted Donovan but wasn’t sure about what it all meant, her relationship with him, her purpose, his desires concerning her.

  The creak of the bed springs alerted her that he had moved. She remained where she was. The warmth of his body heated hers from behind, and he rested his hands on her hips. “I want to be with you,” he whispered. “Always.”

  “What are you saying?” A tremor went through her. She closed her eyes and willed the fears away, the insecurities. Confidence had been her shield against the world, at least the human one. Immortals had never been allowed to matter until Donovan.

  Moving close, he curved his body around hers, dipped his knees and embraced her in a hold that was more than lust-filled. “I want us to be one. I wanted to dominate you. Yes, I lied about my motives. And something else.”

  She swallowed. “What?”

  “The Wren Bai were the, I guess you could say, mascots of the demon race many centuries ago. In some areas of the underworld, they still are. While all inhabitants there are under the demons’ thumb, my people are particularly. I am. I did not have a choice in the matter of coming to get you, of seducing you. Ove wanted it. I came.”

  Tears filled Kai’s eyes. She tried to pull away, but Donovan held onto her. He tightened his hold and laid his cheek against hers.

  “Why are you telling me all this?” She sniffed. “Why now?”

  “Because I love you, Kai.” He flipped her around to face him. “I wanted to make you obey me, to be my slave as a sort of payback for Ove’s treatment of me and mine. But it backfired. I couldn’t hurt you. It tore at me to be cruel.”

  She grinned. “Every time you commanded me, you were so gentle when you said it. Firm but gentle.” His first words hit her. “You love me?”

  He tipped her chin up. “Yes, I do. Tell me you feel the same. I know you do. You’ve not been able to walk away from me. You forgave me quickly after you found out the truth. That means something.”

  When the fire lit in her eyes, she felt it, hot and soothing, scorching away the humanity that lingered in her body. “When I am too long out of my body, I feel it, the darkness, the evil. Yes, I also feel something for you, but not love.”

  With a gasp, he drew back and stared down at her.

  “You’ve tried to seduce a demon, Donovan.” Resting a palm on his chest, she let the fire grow up around it, heating him. He wouldn’t be hurt, but he would sense the power. “You are powerful, lover,” she told him, and pushed hard.

  He flew backward across the room, landing on the bed. She climbed on the bed and stood above him, legs apart, giving him the view all men desired. His eyes swept from her face to her moist pussy.

  “The demon rules,” she growled, transforming in an instant.

  Chapter Sixteen

  Donovan watched her change, his heart pounding with lust and desire. He knew what she was, knew the risks he’d taken, pulling her from her body. He didn’t get to live as long as he had and not know what it would mean. An explosive combination of his ability to edge her into her dark side and in suppressing her humanity was what she needed. That had been accomplished in forcing her to appear before him.

  Now, he had only to enjoy coupling with her. Her sexy body called to his, made his cock rise in anticipation of burrowing into her. He sat up and shouldered between her legs. Her ass rested easily in his palms, her thighs thrown around his head. He took a hungry taste of her, and her head dropped backward, a cry of pleasure on her lips.

  For now, he would let the sexy demoness think she was in charge. When he was ready, he would train her again who her master was. He hadn’t been lying when he told her he loved her. He did. And he would spend the entire night teaching her how much she loved him in return.

  He sucked at her sweet pussy, trying his best to drink all she had to offer him. When he had, he moved to her clit, teased it and drew it between his lips. She squirmed to get away, but he held on, forced her closer.

  “Don . . . ”

  “Mm.” He leaned back. “Hush, baby. Let me pleasure you. Come for me.”

  “It’s too much. I can’t take it.” She gasped, fighting his hold. He leaned her down on the bed and followed with his body. Her hot skin flamed hotter and singed the sheets, but he didn’t pause for a second. He sucked her clit harder into his mouth and laved it with his tongue. Kai screamed. She tugged at his hair, cursed him for his lips being too good.

  He let the chuckle rumbling up in his throat vibrate on her clit. Her muscles pulsed beneath him. Donovan ran his fingers up to grab hold of her stiff nipples, and he tugged. She arched into his hold. Who’s your daddy now? he demanded mentally. She shrieked. He knew she’d heard his thought.

  “Donovan!”

  “Who is your master?”

  She clamped her jagged teeth together. Flames lit her eyes. He leaned up to stare down at her taut body, flat belly so red and thighs thick and curvy for him. She tried to squirm away, but he yanked her back. His cock swelled all the more as he watched her, craved her.

  She rolled to her stomach. He stroked her ass, wondering if she could shift to the point of growing out a tail. He’d fucked a demoness with one before, but even without the extra appendage, no woman was as hot as Kai.

  Her hips locked beneath him, he readied his cock at her entrance. “Ready for me?”

  “You’re bigger,” she whimpered.

  “So?” He pushed at her. Her pussy widened around his cock. She cried out. Donovan fought not to come yet. He wanted to be buried to the hilt when he let go. “Who is your master, Kai?”

  “I am my own master!” she screamed.

  “Wrong answer.” He drew back. His head slid out of her sweetness. He could have wept.

  “Donovan, you fuck!” Her claws tore at the covers, transforming them to ribbons. Vaguely, he felt relieved that it wasn’t his back she’d done that to. “Put it in me now!”

  The shields on her power were wide open. Kai had the potential to be a succubus. The push to obey her was strong, and not just because he ached for it already. A human male would have been helpless to resist her command. Donovan had to give it his all not to give in.

  “Who is your master, Kai?” he asked again.

  Without warning, her tactic changed. Her voice went soft. Her claws receded, and the redness in her body faded to a soft pink. “I need it, Donovan. A woman like me needs it all the time. You wouldn’t make me suffer. You wouldn’t hurt me.”

  He sunk his erection deep inside her, knowing full well this was just another manifestation of the demon. To transform to the delicate flower, the innocent, ready to be plucked. Even her pussy was tighter than it had ever been. He could scarcely get all of himself inside. The fit was so snug, it was like she was a virgin.r />
  Donovan fell down on top of her, doing his own clawing, that of holding on and not shooting his load too soon. “Damn it, Kai, you’re so tight, I can’t . . . For fuck sake, it’s good!”

  He rolled his hips, almost having to force his way in. Her moan was soft, muffled in the covers. She didn’t fight at all, but her back was arched, and her ass was angled up to him, making it possible to squeeze farther in.

  Exhausted, he sat up, but kept his pelvis still. He was buried inside her, and wanted to remain that way forever. If he moved, he’d come. He waited for his desires to settle some so he could pump her. A feathered caress to his temple made him look up, but nothing was there. She lay with her eyes closed, unmoving. Had he hurt her?

  “Kai?”

  A chuckle tickled his mind, inside his head. “Yes,” she whispered inaudibly. “I love you. Never forget, lover. You are mine just as much as I am yours.”

  From nowhere, her pussy muscles clamped down on his cock and seemed to suck at him. He howled. His orgasm smashed through his control, through his magic, his domination of her. His hips rose and fell at a thundering speed without his consent. “Kai!”

  He couldn’t stop plowing into her. His cock ground up her passage and pulled out, ground deep again and retreated. He roared through his climax in tune with her screams of delight. A full twenty minutes had passed before they came to a stop, and Donovan was sure he couldn’t come again for the next month, nor move for that long.

  Eyes closing in exhaustion, he heard her in his head before he drifted to sleep. “A little rest, lover. And then I want to do it all again and again.”

  * * * *

  Kai woke to fingers kneading her breasts, pinching her nipples. She moaned and strained toward the hand, wanting more. She and Donovan had made love far past the crack of dawn, and she really should have gone back to her body, but . . . Mmm! . . . He wanted more? She had thought during the last round, she’d finally worn the poor man out for good.

  The sun shone on her face, warming her, and the fingers teasing her nipples were insistent. She couldn’t turn away. When she opened her eyes with a smile spreading across her face, she did not expect to see Gethin. The lust in his expression was plain, and his boldness at running his hands over her while she slept angered her so much she couldn’t push words past her lips for a moment.

  At her side, Donovan rolled over and reached for her at the same time he too opened his eyes. He gasped seeing Gethin, but didn’t have her loss of speech. “Fuck!” He lifted a hand over her. “Kai, return!” he shouted.

  Her body lost its solidity and sunk through the bed, down through the floor and then zoomed on its way through space and time. The next thing she knew, she heard herself yelp, and she fell face first onto the grass.

  Grass?

  She sat up and looked around. Fully dressed, she was outside on the back lawn at Brenton’s house. Mitzi sat nearby, her bottom lip caught between her teeth while she tore up blades of grass, and Brenton was reclined on a lawn chair drinking something black in a wine glass.

  “Oh boy,” Kai mumbled. “I think I was having one serious dream.

  Brenton, too sexy for his or her own good, frowned. “That was no dream, damn you. You left your body last night. I saw no reason not to have Mitzi get you dressed and bring you out here for your training in preparation for when you returned. You had two more minutes before I forced you back.”

  Kai stared. “You can do that?”

  “I can do whatever the hell I want.” He winked. “Don’t forget it. Now, do you want to tell me where you went? No, let me guess. A booty call?”

  Kai frowned at the terminology she had never liked. She’d overheard a few humans using it, but it wasn’t something immortals said. Brenton had been among the mortals a little too long. “That’s not your business. I’m ready.” She stood up to wait for his instructions, but grateful and worried at the same time that Donovan had sent her back when he had.

  Brenton took his time setting aside his sunglasses and rising to stretch out a body so deliciously chiseled, Kai considered whether he had struck a deal with the chief demon to get it. Had she not been wrapped up in Donovan enough to admit her love for him last night, she might have been tempted with Brenton. Still, a girl could enjoy the scenery.

  Kai glanced over at Mitzi still in her position on the grass, yet now with a red face. Brenton was rock hard in black slacks that left nothing to their imagination. Kai guessed poor Mitzi was intimidated by Brenton. He had picked at her the entire time they’d been guests in his house. Now that Kai thought about it, her friend had been more or less like a pet to her over the years, rarely leaving her side. She’d never seen Mitzi with a boyfriend, and she’d assumed Mitzi was, well, attracted to her.

  She studied her friend again. Could she be attracted to Brenton? No, he was too old, although he didn’t look older than a thirty-five year old human man. But if he had stood against Ove, he was up there. Mitzi didn’t appear to age. She looked just as she did fifteen years before and was just as spry.

  Brenton stopped in front of Kai, interfering with her speculating on her friend’s feelings. He caught her beneath the chin and forced her to look up at him. “If you had a sexual need, you could have come to me. I’m skilled in sensual arts from at least a hundred different tribes—this world and the under.”

  Kai rolled her eyes and pulled her chin from his hold. “Congratulations, sexy.” She smirked. “I’ve got a man, but thanks for the offer.”

  He grinned. Kai had learned early on that Brenton was one hundred percent demon but preferred to look human. He never shape-shifted into his true form. She’d even heard from his servants that he had a tail, but none had seen it in eight hundred years.

  “Then maybe Mitzi—”

  Kai moved with lightning speed. She had fire licking at the air from fingernails that had grown out like knives. She curved the weapons into Brenton’s throat. “Touch her and you die.”

  He chuckled. “When and if I decide to eat Mitzi . . .” He paused to let the words sink in for both of them. Mitzi trembled. Kai swallowed. “It will have nothing to do with you. Now, little half-bitch, show me what you can do.”

  Kai fought all the rest of the day and night. Brenton zinged her with a fire that stung, although she couldn’t figure out how that could be since she too used fire. When she collapsed exhausted, he used the cruel weapon to force her up. With each passing hour that her bones ached and her throat seemed to have dried up and blown away in the wind, she didn’t care who wanted what. She just wanted it to end.

  At midnight, Brenton backed off, and Mitzi transformed herself to a person big enough and strong enough to carry Kai to her bedroom. Kai didn’t complain when Mitzi helped her shower and change and soon was lost in the land of unconsciousness.

  Chapter Seventeen

  In Kai’s mind, even her hair hurt along with every muscle in her body. Brenton was most certainly evil to the core. Kai didn’t think there was anything else to learn or master in her arsenal of demon powers. She must be almost as skilled as Ove by now. And she missed Donovan, more than she wanted to.

  On a rare break, she strolled with Mitzi in Brenton’s garden at the side of his property. She couldn’t imagine a man like him enjoying flowers, but maybe deep inside he was no different than she was, wanting to live the life of a human.

  And what was she going to do about Donovan. Her feelings were even stronger in the light of day now that she was away from his bed. She had thought her mind would clear, and she could make a rational decision regarding him, but that seemed impossible.

  “I don’t know, Mitzi.” Kai sighed and stared up at the sky as if it held her answers. Yeah right, for something like her, a demoness? “He makes me feel . . .”

  “Loved?” Mitzi offered.

  Kai laughed. “Unhinged.”

  “I would give anything to have love like that.” Mitzi sighed. She strolled over to a flower, plucked it, sniffed it and tossed it away. Kai frowned. She had
always thought everyone was wrong about the citizens of the underworld being inherently evil. Mitzi wasn’t, but what if she was wrong?

  “I thought you didn’t care about love, Mitzi. I’ve never seen you pursue a man.”

  The girl shrugged. “That’s because I want only an immortal, and you wanted a human. Now you’ve fallen in love with an immortal. I hope this doesn’t mean I will fall for a human.” She shuddered.

  Kai laughed. “What about Brenton. He wants you.”
