One hand snaked up my belly, teasing my breast, while he pinned my arms over my head with his other hand. A little thrill went through me. I kind of enjoyed being trapped like this. I gasped as he twisted my nipple hard.
He dropped his mouth to my ear and murmured, “You did a very bad thing, Mia. We signed a deal, and you broke it.”
“Oh.” I flushed, biting my bottom lip. “I suppose I ought to be punished for it.”
Nipping at my ear, he continued, “Normally, a demon would steal the soul of an oath-breaker. But we can’t do that, now can we?”
“Sounds like you’ll have to come up with something else.” I glanced over my shoulder at him. “I have a few ideas.”
He slipped his hand between my legs and unzipped my jeans. As his lips caressed my neck, I arched toward him, but his palm grasped my hips and pushed me back.
“We’ll do things at my speed,” he said with a laugh. “For your punishment.”
“Sure. Okay. Punish me as long as you like.” I gasped when he pushed down my jeans and then followed them with my lacy thong. I was now one hundred percent naked before him, and he was fully clothed. When I tried to reach behind me to unbutton his shirt, he tightened his grip on my wrists.
He flipped me around again, so that I faced him. His hungry eyes tore across me, drinking in my body. Heart pounding, I wet my lips, tilting back my head so that he would kiss me.
A wicked smile played across his lips. He dropped his mouth to my breast and dragged his tongue across my nipple. Desire lit up my insides. Arching toward him, I moaned.
His lips stole across my chest to my other peaked nipple. Hand still trapping my wrists, he sucked hard. I shuddered as my core clenched tight. Heat built up between my thighs, making me ache for him.
I was starting to feel like I might scream if he didn’t do something more than just play with my breasts.
And I had a feeling that was the point.
“Okay,” I whispered after another agonizing round of nipple teasing. “This feels amazing, but...”
“But what, Mia?” Laughter danced in his eyes, and his dimples made a rare appearance. He was enjoying this far too much.
“You know.” I flushed. “There are some other parts of my body that might want a little attention.”
“Might?” He arched a brow. “Hmm.Onlymight?”
“How about definitely?” I whispered.
His gaze dropped to my thighs. With a delicious, panty-melting smile, he slid one finger down the length of me. He stopped just above my folds. Ice-blue eyes boring into me, he asked a silent question.
“Yes. Please.” The ache was almost overwhelming. I could hardly think, let alone speak.
“You’ll never break one of our deals again?” he asked in a growl.
“As long as you never make me sign another contract.”
He chuckled and pulled back. “Mia.”
“Az.”
“You are infuriating.”
I smiled up at him. “So are you.”
He shifted closer to me, pressing his body against mine. I could feel the hardness of his cock through his pants, pressing into my pubic bone. We were playing a little game, one he wasn’t necessarily winning. He wanted me just as much as I wanted him.
And then his eyes darkened. “You seem to have such little regard for your own safety. Can’t you see I’m just trying to keep you safe? If anything happened to you, I...”
My heart pulsed. He what?
As he stared into my eyes, his grip on my arms relaxed. Slowly, I dropped my hands onto his shoulders and slid them down his shirt. My fingers made quick work of his buttons. I pushed the material back, revealing his sculpted chest.
