“What makes you say that?”
“Call it a woman’s intuition. She’s into you. Hook, line, and sinker, Bri. I don’t know what you did or how it happened, but I’m glad. It’s nice to see you having a life for a change.”
Her words made him soften.
He’d never felt so widely accepted before.
“Maybe I was just waiting for the right person to live it with,” he said as he exited the house, feeling a new sense of purpose and happiness.
For the first time, everything felt as if it was falling into place.

Athena looked almostmortal standing in his kitchen in nothing but one of his shirts. She leaned over the counter, eating a piece of pizza, and he couldn’t help but think it was the hottest sight on the planet.
Though the large box was almost empty, save for two pieces left, next to a half eaten jar of peanut butter. The position, the fabric of his shirt pulled against the swell of her breasts, and he had to fight a moan.
“Well, aren’t you a sight for sore eyes,” he said as he dropped his keys on the end table by the door.
It had been nearly a week since they’d met at the DeLux Cafe.
Aside from that first morning, when they’d both been pulled away, they had been practically inseparable. Aside from his shifts at the library, and visits to his parents, Athena filled nearly every waking hour of his.
And it has been a wondrous experience, indeed.
His cock twitched in his pants as she groaned in satisfaction, swallowing down a large wad of cheese.
Something about her spoke to him. She was glowing with sex appeal, and it didn’t hurt that she was just as hungry for it as he was.
He slid up behind her, resting his hand on her hips. She smelled divine, like every dream and wish he’d ever had rolled into one. He traced his hands up her thighs, over her hip, realizing she was in fact not wearing any underwear. He groaned as he stiffened again.
“By the Gods, I don’t know how you do it. I’ve never been this turned on by pizza and...” He swirled his finger in the open peanut butter jar, making a show of licking it off with no shame in front of her. “…in my life,” he said with a laugh as he planted a kiss on her neck. She brushed her ass against him with a gleeful chuckle.
“I think you might be the only man in all eternity who can keep up with me and my... needs,” she teased.
“Do those needs include consuming half a jar of peanut butter? Because if they do, I will gladly keep you satisfied with all the jars you want,” he said, his voice fun and playful. Though the combination of peanut butter and pepperoni pizza with pineapple sounded disgusting to him, he would have gladly given her anything she asked for.
Athena made him feel like a whole other person, brought out a part of him he always wished he could be. For the first time in his life, he gave freely, satisfied knowing that she appreciated everything he offered.
Including the adoration a Goddess like her deserved.
He never wanted her to leave, but he knew eventually, she’d have to go home. She did have one of her own.
He slid his hand over her stomach as he thrust his groin against her ass.
“Not to mention, I think you might be the only woman in the world who can make me come multiple times in a damn day,” he teased her back. “Which I amnotcomplaining.”
“Did you get the key?” she asked, finishing her pizza and turning around in his grasp.
Brian shut the lid and pushed it aside.
“I did,” he breathed as he slid his hand lower, rubbing her in all the right places.
“Such a good boy,” she said, but she was abruptly cut off by his ministrations.
Brian massaged her clit as he slid a finger inside of her.
“Anything for my Goddess,” he purred as he kissed her. She fell into him with ease, letting her tongue caress his as she ground herself against his hand. He slid a second finger into her slick, wet folds.
