The difference was his blood didn’t carry the same sheen as demon blood. It was similar but distinctly different. Demon blood looked like oil in water; what one would call the rainbow effect. Nova’s blood glimmered like iridescent gems caught in a sea of red. Every time the blood caught the light, it sparkled and was oddly beautiful.

But I was distracted when Nova grasped my face and sucked my bottom lip into his mouth before biting down. The pain and pleasure went straight to my hips, a hard vice-like constriction on his cock.

Clawing at him, I rolled on top and slammed my hips down onto his. The demon groaned and tensed, hostage like I was to the angry pleasure of our vicious, no-love-and-all-lust fuck. Working my hips in seductive circles, I licked blood from my fingers and Nova’s expression darkened with desire the closer I got to finishing. My hands slid over his wet chest as the pinned demon slammed his cock inside me, somehow finding grip when I was previously sloshed around like a rag doll.

“Fuck,” he grunted, the sound of our wet bodies meeting hitting my ears with every slap. “You look gorgeous covered in my blood.”

Tossing my head back, I swiveled my hips and the intoxicating pleasure intensified.

Sex had never felt so good, and even his illusions didn’t compare. It made sense why so many men fell into temptation when a female demon lured them with sex. Hell, I was only half human and this shit was better than I ever imagined it could be. On par with my first real demon kill, truth be told.

“Shit!”

Arching, my orgasm hit out of nowhere and I barely had time to react before it took hold of me. At the same time, Nova buried his cock inside of me and stiffened. Then an explosive rush fled my body, the collecting tension sweeping out exactly like it did the night I murdered my foster father.

Nova tautened all over. Every muscle in his body was rock-hard and visible. But then everything relaxed.

His beautiful form saturated in his own blood was truly a sight, but I’d never openly admit that it made me desperate to taste him again. To run my tongue over every surface and let my fingers memorize his shape. To sink my nails into his soft flesh and fuse our hips together until you didn’t know where I started and he ended.

Like every time I had sex, I didn’t waste time getting off of him and finding my self-control again. But I’d be lying if I said it didn’t take a great deal of effort this time.

Nova stood over me, only obscure patches of his skin left untouched by his blood. “I think we’re both due for a shower, don’t you agree?”

I’d managed to temper the shaking in my body, but my head was another thing entirely. I was plagued by an overwhelming urge to touch and taste Nova again. One time hadn’t been enough—would never be enough. I wasn’t satisfied the way I should be. If anything, I was addicted, and a part of me worried that’d been the sly demon’s plan all along.

Seducing me with blood and sex, who would’ve thought?

I’d gotten cocky with something I didn’t understand. Aidan warned me that if I did, it might mean I never got away. He’d meant I’d die, but being a slave to some dream demon with a sexy smile and addictive voice wasn’t far from death for me. Being a slave to an evil man, the same way I’d been my entire childhood, was what I promised myself I’d never let happen.

Did I just set in motion the very thing I feared?

Fuck.

But something felt different with Nova. Safe. Comforting. It was hard to put into words the sense of coming home his touch and blood offered me. It was like that final piece of who I truly was coming into existence.

Because like he said, I already felt different after consuming his blood and having sex with him. The powerful sensation tingled across every surface of my body. Somehow, I knew that I was stronger and more of a threat than before.

And power always came at a cost.

Testing fate, Nova bent down and lifted me into a princess hold. The urge to stab him had never been so strong, but for some reason, I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and didn’t fight his grasp.

His eyes, now back to their gem-like green, glinted alongside the usual mischievous smirk. “Our contract is officially forged, little bird. I look forward to working with you.”

I eyed the small pond of blood, not terribly sure what to make of the experience. “Seeing how you just bled a lake, I’d say so.”

Chuckling huskily, Nova walked towards the stairs and didn’t seem to mind that we were both very much naked and looked like we’d murdered a village.

Guess this really was a horror movie.

“SOMETHING DOESN’T MAKE SENSE ABOUT your story,” I finally voiced while throwing on a shirt and turning towards the demon who hadn’t bothered to dress after our shower. “If I’ve only been alive for this long, how did you kill…you know, the ruler of Hell, my father, several millennia ago?”

Nova’s lips tilted before he offered me a smug look. “Caught that, did you?”

“Well, it’s sort of hard to miss. Doesn’t add up, and now I think you’re full of shit,” I said, sliding my legs into a pair of tight-fitting denims.

Asshole somehow had my size down to a T.

“I should say that the first time Lucifer thought your father was vanquished, he’d slipped away severely weakened. I wasn’t able to kill him when she took the crown, and very few knew he hadn’t been killed. He lived out his days in the human realm, disguised as one.”
