CHAPTER TWELVE
BRONWYN
Three days later, and if I spent any more time in Luciferâs bed, Iâd probably fuse with the damn sheets. I swear, Hellâs got nothing on being the Devilâs eternal booty call.
I tried to shuffle out once, hoping heâd fallen asleep, and I could slip away like some sneaky ninja, but Lucifer? Oh, heâs got a sixth sense for that.
As soon as my pinky toe hit the perpetually hot floor, his eyes popped open. Like, come on, is there no escape?
If it couldnât get any worse, the goddess-damned soulbond had gotten stronger with all the âbonding time.â
I sighed loudly as he trailed hot kisses along my shoulder.
âDid you sneak another line into the contract about confining me to your bed?â I grumbled.
The last wave of the lust spell had started to weaken, and baseless hope unfurled inside of me. Followed swiftly by my determination. I would not spend another day locked in his room.
He chuckled, the sound igniting traitorous tingles along my spine. âIs my company truly so loathsome?â
I rolled over and shoved his roaming hands away. âYou kidnapped me to be your supernatural baby machine. So yeah, buddy, snuggle time has lost its charm.â I propped myself up on my elbows, meeting his gaze. âIâm not spending another day locked in this room. I canât.â
He tensed before exhaling slowly. âI⦠apologise for the circumstance that brought you to Hell.â Each word sounded dragged out by thumbscrews. âPerhaps a change of scenery might improve your mood.â
My eyes narrowed suspiciously. âWhat, I get house arrest privileges now?â
He smiled, but it looked more like a grimace. âIf you promise to stay away from the Lords of Sins and not risk your life, yes.â
âI didnât willingly do any of those things.â I sat up and his gaze dropped to my naked breasts, the lust spell refusing to let him go. I covered myself and he tilted his head back, meeting my incredulous stare. âBut Iâm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. Conjure me some clothes, and Iâll be on my way.â
His brow furrowed. âI didnât say you could go alone.â
I shot him a sceptical look. âOh, joy. Another guided tour of the Devilâs Playground. Thatâs exactly what I needed in my life.â
Lucifer sighed, his frustration thinly veiled. âYouâre insufferable, you know that?â
âComing from the guy who kidnapped me for his twisted reproduction plan, Iâll take that as a compliment.â I shook my head, my irritation bubbling to the surface. âFine, letâs get this over with. Show me the wonders of your personal Hell.â
He rose from the bed and dressed himself with a flick of his fingers. I eyed him expectantly.
He stared at me, clearly missing the point. âWhatâs the matter now?â
I let out an exasperated sigh. âClothes, Lucifer. I need something to wear that doesnât scream Devilâs concubine.â
He conjured an outfit, all frills and endless fabric. I glared at him. âAre you trying to make me look like a Victorian doll? Because I assure you, I wonât survive Hellâs heat in this.
