Chapter Thirty-one

I woke up early, and I mean really fucking early—six in the morning early. My goddess was there, cuddled against me, asleep. My goddess…I shook away such silly thoughts. This isn’t Romeo and Juliet. Sappy thoughts are for the doomed.

More doomed than I am. I did feel relief at her presence, because when I had arrived last night, the house was empty. Amelia and her friends were normally back by ten. I did receive one text from her in response to mine: be back later aka BBL. If humans hadn’t created Google, I’d be fucked when it comes to figuring out some of their pseudo-language.

That text stopped me from investigating. Of course, if I felt any wrongness to it or any presence that shouldn’t be in the city, I would’ve gone after them. But they’re adults and having a girls’ night out was a thing.

As I sat up, I felt a hand grab my arm. I peered into bright green eyes. Before I knew it, I kissed her. Amelia returned the passion and we made out for a few minutes. She tried to take it to the next step but my rationality returned along with my knowledge of goddess biology. Sex with Amelia would only be for baby-making, sadly. She would have it no other way. Yeah, shitty teachings from Paradise Realm.

Well, actually there was an exception. Marriage. She knew it too. I could have her whenever I wanted, when I wanted, if I tied that knot. A Paradise Realm marriage was eternal, unbreakable. And fucking pointless. The pre-determined love of destiny thing is basically an arranged marriage.

“If I didn’t have class, I’d join your meeting,” Amelia said after breakfast. I made sure to sheath Ruin and strap it to my side. Amelia cast some kind of glamour that hid it from humans. Goddess powers, figures. “I’d like to hear more of Amony’s intel on Sunset.”

“That goes without saying,” I said. “I’d rather this city remained Fallen-free.”

The last thing we needed was a nightmare worse than the hunters. They’ve been known to give even powerful heavenly-beings trouble. And there were hundreds of rumors about them. I started toward the door but Amelia cleared her throat loudly. “What?”

She sighed. “Goodbye kiss.”

Her friends walked in with grins just as I kissed her. I flushed at the sight of them.

“Well, well, I see you’ve finally awakened the man within, Amelia,” Amanda said. Jade and Keisha laughed.

“Well, look at the time, love to chat but I’m out,” I said as I hauled ass out of there. The last thing I heard was Jade’s voice.

“I told you. He loves you even more than you love him.”

Nosey humans, goddammit. Maybe it’s just a female thing. When it came to TV or movie romance, I swear they had a saying about everything.

It was a cloudy morning with slight breezes every now and then. Traffic varied from moderate to heavy. Driving in the city can be a pain in the ass, but if my job wasn’t an easy walk, I’d probably consider a car.
