Page 47 of Charming As Hell

I can’t say the same for Toth. He’s pouting as we wait for them to emerge out of their room so we can portal to Berlin.

I’m not sure how Mara wants to play the situation once we get there. We don’t have much to go on about her mother, just a location.

I’m not even sure they would have a familial resemblance since her current form was created in Hell.

All I know is that if she requests that I kill Toth, I won’t hesitate. I haven’t had a problem with him in the past, but the way he speaks to Mara is unacceptable, even if she seems to enjoy riling him up.

Whatever she asks of me, I’ll do… eagerly.

“Can they hurry the fuck up?” Toth complains, bouncing his leg while he sits in the kitchen area.

I just ignore his question and wait patiently. I’ve read between the lines of what Mara has and hasn’t said. Last night was her first night fully exploring what her new body can do. I’m thankful she chose Judd.

I’m going to have to train her to take my cock. The thought has me smirking into my hand as I imagine it. All the cute sounds she’ll make, how she’ll either beg me to keep going or beg me to stop. Maybe I’ll let Judd watch and stroke his cock while I take her. When she needs a break from taking me, I’ll take him, and she can watch.

There’s no secret that Mara is more important than Judd or myself. We both understand this without having to discuss it verbally. While the sad, tattooed demon has piqued my interest for some time, all of our decisions are focused around Mara.

I think we can both live with that.

Toth, however… I’m not sure I can live with. If Mara decides she wants him, I’ll have to deal with it, but he won’t be on the same level as Judd and myself. I have no interest in him the way I do Judd, and the feeling is clearly mutual as he glares at me.

“Can you go tell them to move their asses?”

“No,” I reply, and he shuts his mouth.

I’m hoping she lets me kill him.

It takes probably another five minutes before Judd and Mara leave their room, hand in hand. She’s wearing black jeans and a shirt that doesn’t cover her toned midriff. I want to lick her flesh and shove my head under the fabric.

“Great, now we can finally get the fuck out of here,” Toth bitches, and Mara rolls her eyes, letting the comment roll off her back.

“Sorry, Judd is just really good with his tongue. It’s pierced. Did you know that? So is his—”

“Enough,” Toth interrupts her. “Can we please just portal to Berlin?”

“Fine,” Mara replies, grabbing my hand and kissing the back of my wrist. She’s just too adorable in any realm she steps in. I grab Judd’s hand because I refuse to touch Toth’s, and I can tell that it pisses him off every time I do it.

I quite enjoy getting under his skin. Sometimes I wonder how Lucifer has such a sensitive little bitch as his right hand.

Toth’s ability is a rare one. He can portal easily anywhere with as many people as he desires. He can also portal people against their will. It’s not as useful as other gifts, like mine, but it has its place. Especially, since he needs time to charge between portalling from one realm to another. Not that I could have taken us all from Hell to here, but we all could have portalled separately. I’m convinced he’s an absolute nightmare of a control freak.

“Do we need to bother with accommodations?” Toth asks.

“Yes,” Mara says plainly and with little attitude. It’s almost like she senses where we need to be.

“Fine. This place should do,” he says, holding out a hand to the hotel in front of us.

“We can get separate rooms if sharing a space is a problem for you, Toth,” she sasses. It’s almost like I watch his literal nerves become frazzled with her commentary. It’s enjoyable to watch.

“No, we’re all sticking together. It’s almost nightfall,” Toth refutes.

“Right, vampires,” Mara cringes.

“You don’t like vampires?” Judd asks.

“I don’t feel one specific way about them. But they are pretty disgusting when you think about it, though,” she replies.

“Thought you would be into the whole blood and guts thing,” Toth snarks. He constantly tries to piss her off, but it doesn’t work.
