“Yeah, baby, that’s it. Fuck.” His spine locked as he exploded, growling through gritted teeth, filling her with everything he had.

Careful not to give her too much of his weight, Maddox tucked his face into her neck as they lay there shaking and panting. He’d known the moment he met her that he’d one day have her. He’d known it would be good, but he hadn’t known it would be this good. Hadn’t thought it would be so insanely fucking mind-blowing. Not even the electric chemistry that flared between them had prepared him for that.

Lifting his head, Maddox stared down at her. His gut clenched at the languid, sex-drunk look on her face. “My demon was right in what it predicted.”

“What’s that?”

“You were worth the wait.”

CHAPTER TEN

“You let Maddox go paddling up Coochie Creek, didn’t you?”

Devon nearly choked on her herbal tea. Sitting beside the hellcat, Tanner patted her back and shook his head at Khloë, like she was beyond help.

Harper gave the imp a pained look. “Can you stop using that phrase, please?”

Ignoring her, Khloë focused on Raini. “You have that ‘I got laid’ glow right now. Was it good?”

“Better than,” Raini admitted, carefully lifting her hot cup; the cappuccino-scented steam rose to greet her. As per usual of a morning, they’d met up at the coffeehouse next door to Urban Ink. The place was always busy, so it was pretty noisy with the murmur of voices, hum of machines, and clatter of dishware.

Devon grinned. “Does that mean you’re glad you took my advice and let it happen?”

Considering the man’s tongue possessed some dark pussy-eating magic … “Oh, yeah.” Maddox had taken her twice more before leaving in the early hours of this morning, and his demon had briefly surfaced each time.

Maddox hadn’t been lying when he said that neither he nor the entity would go easy on her. She had no complaints about that, and nor did her demon. It still wasn’t happy with him, but it did like that he hadn’t just gotten himself off and then left. It liked that Raini’s pleasure had been important to him.

“Will it be a one-time thing?” asked Harper.

“No.” Raini sipped at her drink. “It’ll be an anchors-with-benefits thing.” Until Maddox got tired of her, that was. It probably wouldn’t take long. Demons got bored easily.

She figured she might as well get her kicks while she could, because the novelty of having someone in her bed who wasn’t under any preternatural influence wasn’t something to sniff at. Plus, she may never experience it again.

Harper’s steady gaze took her in. “You’re definitely okay with that?”

Raini felt her brows draw together. “You don’t think I should be?”

“I didn’t say that,” replied Harper. “I just want to be sure you won’t be hurt when the fling comes to an end. I know you told us the other day that you didn’t think he had the potential to hurt you, but that was before you slept with him. Sometimes people can feel a slight connection with someone during moments like that.”

Raini felt her nose wrinkle. “I wouldn’t say I felt a connection with him. You know trust and emotional intimacy go hand in hand for me. If I don’t trust someone, my guard won’t lower around them. It just doesn’t happen.” She supposed it was a self-defense mechanism. “I trust Maddox in some ways, but not in all.”

“I only wanted to check you’re good.”

Raini smiled. “And I adore you for caring.”

“But you adore me more, right?” asked Khloë, stirring her frozen latte with her straw.

Raini looked at the imp. “I love you all equally.” They’d kind of been over this before.

Khloë’s brow furrowed. “Why? I’m more awesome than they are. And I bought you a donut. Doesn’t that count for anything?”

“Actually, you stole the donut,” Raini reminded her.

“Which amazes me, since no one noticed her go behind the counter and swipe food from the glass display case,” said Tanner without even looking up from the newspaper he’d taken from a nearby table.

“Imps could steal the shirt off your back before you’d even realized it,” said Devon. “Or purloin, as Lachlan would say.”

Khloë chuckled. “He’s a blast. I love your dad, Raini.”

“So do I, but I wouldn’t love for him to find out that me and Maddox currently have a thing going on,” said Raini. “He’d get it all twisted in his head. He’d claim Maddox is using me and all that stuff. Then he’d go into pyro mode. So we keep this information to ourselves, yes? Of course you can tell your mates, but no one else. I mean it, Khloë.”

The imp’s eyes widened. “Why would you think I need a double-warning?”

“Because although you’re good at keeping secrets, you often choose to share them,” replied Raini. “No, don’t say it isn’t true—we kind of know you.”
