Chloe
An hour later, Chloe stood on Kent’s doorstep, ready to ring the doorbell, when the front door was ripped open. Kent quickly grabbed her by the arm, dragging her in and pulling her in close to his body.
He held her in a firm embrace and smiled down at her. “How did Gage and Elena take the news?”
“They’re freakin’ ecstatic. They told me to tell you thank you and that they appreciate everything you’ve done to help Lulu.”
Kent narrowed his eyes, and then frowned. “Did they thank you, as well? You did as much work as I did, sweetheart.”
Her heart melted at the words. That right there was just one of the reasons Chloe found herself reluctantly falling for the demon. He understood her better than anyone ever had before.
Reaching up to cup his face, she whispered, “You’re not just saying that, are you?”
Kent shook his head. “I mean every word. You worked hard on this case, and without the two of us working together, we would have never gotten Lulu off the hook.”
Feeling a bit playful, Chloe coyly asked, “How do I know you’re not just giving me pretty words to get into my pants, demon?”
He looked a bit reluctant, but the words popped right on out without any hesitation. “I can’t lie right now. I have Veritas Serum in me and the effects will probably last another few hours. Plus, I can’t get into your pants because you’re wearing a dress. I’m not opposed to getting into your panties, though.”
Chloe was a little shocked and confused. “What do you mean you can’t lie? And what’s this Veritas stuff?”
He shrugged. “Veritas Serum is a truth serum for demons. It doesn’t work on any other species, so that’s why we couldn’t use it on Lulu in the beginning. I had to take it today to carry out my plan of indicating Jacob Holden responsible for his brother’s death.”
“I could ask you anything right now and you would have to tell me the truth?”
Wariness crossed Kent’s face. “Yes.”
Feeling the need to fuck with Kent’s head just a little bit, she gave him a big smile, and then stepped back and turned around so her back was facing him. Looking over her shoulder, she asked, “Does this dress make my ass look fat?”
Kent went cross-eyed, but answered, “Nothing you wear makes your ass look fat because it’s not fat. It’s the most perfect heart-shaped ass I’ve ever seen.”
Chloe gave it a little wiggle. “Do you want to grab it?”
Lust took over his features, his eyes burning with a smoldering desire. “I sure as hell want to do more than grab it. How about we go to the bedroom and you can find out all the things I want to do to that ass of yours.”
Turning back around, Chloe wiggled her finger in his direction. “Now, now, naughty demon, why should I let you take me to bed again?”
“Because I’m going to make good on that promise I made to fuck you for twenty-four hours straight.”
She gave him a mock sigh. “I bet you’re a teaser and not a pleaser.”
Kent reached over, grabbed her by the waist, and pulled her back into his body. She could feel his long, hard length pressing against her stomach.
“I’ll make you a bet, Amazon. If I can keep you sweaty, pleased, and exhausted for twenty-four hours straight, then you have to give me your lucky panties.”
“And what do I get if you can’t satisfy me for twenty-four hours straight?”
“A sore pussy, because I’m going to be doing my damnedest to fuck you into a coma.”
“Hm … I’m not sure a sore pussy is the prize I want.”
“Then what do you want, Chloe?”
This was the hard part—opening herself for hurt. But Kent had been trying so hard to prove that he wasn’t like the other men that had come in and out of her life. That deep secret part of her that was dying for romance whispered he could be the one. Now was the time to see if that might be true. If he turned down her offer, she would walk away now so as to not let herself get hurt.
“I want you, demon.”
“What do you mean?” he asked curiously.
“I want you all to myself. You asked me for a chance, and now I’m asking you for monogamy. No other women while you’re with me.”
The side of his mouth ticked up in a small smile before he crushed her to him in a strong embrace. Dropping his face so that his lips skimmed her own, he whispered, “Silly, Amazon, don’t you know you already have me.”
“I do?” she asked carefully.
Nodding, Kent said, “Um-hm. I’m all yours, sweetheart. More than you can possibly know.”
He didn’t mean … There was no way she could be his.
Taking a deep breath, Chloe went into the deep end with him. “Am I your mate, Kent?”
“Yes,” he answered warmly, sincerity shining in his eyes. And she knew it was the absolute truth, because he was still on the effects of the Veritas Serum. Cautiously, he asked, “Are you going to go running from me now that you know?”
Chloe didn’t stop to think. “Are you going to ever give me a reason to run?”
“No.”
Running her hands down his suit jacket, she then slipped them under the lapels and grabbed a hold of his red tie. “So handsome in this tie, Kent. Will you let me play with it … and you?”
A wicked grin spread across his face. “Does this mean our bet is on, Amazon?”
“Oh, it’s on, demon. Be prepared to work for it, too. I’m rather fond of my lucky panties. Just so you know, I’m wearing them now.”
He gave an animalistic growl as she led him toward his bedroom by his tie, all the while feeling something bloom inside her heart. It wasn’t love, but it was hope. Hope that she had finally found the man who would treat her as a treasure. A man she could quickly see herself falling in love with.
The first and only man she was willing to give up her lucky panties to.

Kent
He took in her little blue dress and pearls as she walked him backward to his bedroom and nearly groaned. His cock was harder than it had ever been in his life, and he couldn’t wait to get inside of Chloe. This time, he was going to take it slow and make sweet love to her. He was going to show her with his actions how much he cared for her until she finally realized that he wasn’t going anywhere.
When they stepped into his bedroom, Kent started stripping. His suit jacket went first, followed by his dress shirt, which Chloe unbuttoned for him. Wearing nothing but his pants, he wanted her naked before him.
“Undress, sweetheart. Let me see all those sweet curves.”
He watched as she unzipped the back of her dress and let it fall to the floor, leaving her in only a pair of little white lace panties.
“Those are the lucky panties, huh?”
Chloe nodded and bit her bottom lip seductively. “Would you like to get a closer look at them?”
“You’re damn right I do.” Kent fell to his knees in front of her, burying his nose against her panty clad pussy and breathing deeply. He loved the smell of her—musky yet sweet.
Kent could feel her heat and wetness against his nose as it seeped through her panties. He decided that wasn’t enough, though. He wanted more.
Pushing the little piece of cloth aside, he exposed her lips and took a long, deep lick of her, tasting her juices and moaning at the taste.
Chloe gasped at the feeling of his tongue, then buried her hands in his hair, clutching him tightly as if she was afraid he might go. Nothing could take him away from her right now. He was in heaven as he used his thumbs to spread her lips wide, staring at the sweetly pink shade of her intimate area. Then he gave her another long, deep lick, and her hips jerked forward, as if she was silently asking for more.
Kent kept licking her until he felt her body start to tense, and then he moved his mouth, sucking on her clit while filling her pussy with two of his fingers. He then pulled away long enough to say, “Come for me, sweetheart. I want you to come all over my face.” Then he went back to sucking her clit, taking breaks to lash it with his tongue, all the while filling her repeatedly with his fingers.
That wasn’t the only trick he had up his sleeve, however. Gathering just the smallest bit of energy in his body, he let the electricity travel to the tips of his fingers that were shoved deep inside of her, rubbing her G-spot. He let a small vibration of energy zap her from the inside, throwing her into an orgasm that squeezed his fingers to the point of pain. He didn’t stop licking her, though. In fact, he kept licking her until Chloe literally pushed his head away, begging him to stop because she couldn’t take anymore.
She collapsed backward onto his bed, and Kent stood, shedding his pants and underwear. Once he was naked, he reached down to the floor, grabbed his red tie, and then held it up in the air so she could see it.
“What do you plan on doing with that, demon?”
“I want to tie you down to my bed and make slow, sweet love to you, Chloe. Will you let me do that?”
He wasn’t the sort of person who usually asked these sorts of things, but with Chloe, he was so afraid she might feel too much, freak out, and run away from him.
She literally purred while looking at his tie, and then redistributed her body so her hands were up together by the slatted headboard. “I’ll let you tie me up now if you let me tie you up later.”
“Deal.” He had no hesitation in his answer.
Walking over to his bed, he reached over and wound the tie around one of his headboard slats before gently tying both ends around her wrists, subduing her without hurting her.
“The moment you tell me to untie you, I will,” he assured.
“Right now, the only thing I have to tell you is hurry the fuck up and get inside me, demon.”
Kent walked over to his nightstand, retrieved a condom, and then rolled it down his length as Chloe watched him while licking her lips. Once he was done, Kent climbed on top of the bed between her thighs and kissed her until they were both breathless.
She didn’t pull away or complain about tasting herself on his lips, and that somehow made him harder, knowing she was enjoying the taste of herself as much as he had.
Pulling back, she arched into his body as he kissed his way down her neck, across her chest, and then engulfed one of her nipples in his mouth. Kent sucked and nibbled at the ripe berry until Chloe was groaning with pleasure. Then he made his way over to her other nipple and did the same. By the time he was done, she was begging.
“Please get inside me. I want to feel you now.”
Kent didn’t need to be told twice. Lining up his cock at the entrance of her pussy, he pushed in slowly, only giving her a quarter of an inch on each thrust.
Chloe was wiggling around him, wrapping her legs around his hips and trying to make him move faster, but he refused. This was his chance to cherish her with his body, and he wanted to make it as special as he possibly could.
Once he was finally seated to the hilt, his balls touching her ass, she moaned in pleasure, “So full.”
“That’s right, sweetheart. You’re stretched around my dick, holding me tight and wanting more, aren’t you? Squeeze me with your muscles if you want more.”
Chloe immediately squeezed him with her vaginal walls, and Kent thought he had died and gone to heaven.
Pulling back out, bit by bit, he waited until the tip of his cock was barely inside of her before slowly sliding back inside. He wasn’t even moving fast, but they were both already breathing heavy by the time he had made his fifth thrust inside of her. His self-control was waning. It took everything he had not to give in to the overwhelming need to pick up the speed.
Putting one of his hands behind her neck, Kent angled her face so he could reach down and kiss her again. Their tongues leisurely thrust against each other much the way their bodies were. He felt the tingling at the bottom of his spine, the small telltale indicator that he was close to coming. He wanted to make her come one more time before he did, though, so he pulled away from their kiss and sat up so that her legs were over his thighs, still inside of her.
Bending over, he set his hands over her nipples, cupping and massaging her breasts as he once again pulled in just a minute amount of electrical energy. Using his body as the conduit that it was, he let that energy flow to his palms and vibrate against her skin, much like a violet wand would if he had one.
Chloe gasped in surprised, arching her body up into his palms, and then he felt her pussy tightening all around his cock as she came. It sent Kent over that orgasmic edge as he came himself inside the condom that separated them.
He wished that condom wasn’t there and that he could feel all of her. Nevertheless, he settled himself with knowing that day would come … when she was ready for it. Until then, he still had the sleek, tight heat of her pussy surrounding him, squeezing him into bliss.
Collapsing on top of her, he panted heavily for a moment until he caught his breath, and then he picked himself up so he could untie the red tie wound around her wrists. Once he was done, he lay on his side, just watching her catch her breath. It was a long, hushed moment before she finally said something to him; something he wasn’t expecting to hear.
“I think I’m going to fall in love with you.”
Staring at her profile, he said the words that he didn’t need any truth serum to know they were the truth from his heart. “I know I’m falling in love with you.”
“So, where does this put us, demon?”
“Together, Amazon. This puts us together.”
“If you say something cheesy like together forever, I’m going to run out of here right now.”
He snorted a laugh, knowing she meant it. “How about I say something less cheesy then, like, together for now until you tell me you’re ready for forever?”
Rolling over to face him, she pet the side of his face, lingering over his cheekbones. “That sounds like a good bet to make, demon.”
“Good, because I’m a betting sort of man. And baby, I’m putting all my bets on you.”
