The food that Sorrow ordered is fucking boss. Like, it’s the best I’ve eaten in a while: a full steak dinner with sides delivered. The meat is fresh and almost bloody, the mashed potatoes creamy, the rolls crisp on the outside and soft on the in. I’d be in heaven if I didn’t have such mixed feelings about this whole give me a baby thing.
I mean, I can’t have a child, so there’s that at least.
But by agreeing to this contract, I’m agreeing to let Sorrow, Vyce, and Wolfe try. And try. And try. Holy mother.
“This is a little like prostitution,” I tell him as I stab another bite of juicy steak and pop it between my lips. “And I’ve never heard of Rumpel making a deal like this ever.” I narrow my eyes on the handsome vamp/demon lounging on my bed, plastic fork teasing what’s left of his mashed potatoes.
“How so?” he asks, watching me with those pale blue eyes. They’re so much less saturated than mine. Well, my one eye anyway. The other is gray, more like Wolfe’s. Pale blue and steel gray are two of the more common vampire eye colors, followed by red and purple. You never see brown or green ever. Catch sight of a gaze that color in court and you know for sure you’re looking at a dhampir.
“Uh, you’re offering me something in exchange for sex?” I query back at him, finishing my food and closing the container lid. I toss it onto the floor next to the bed to deal with later and Sorrow grimaces, taking his own trash and picking mine up on the way before he disposes of it all in the kitchen trash can.
“No, we’re offering you something in exchange for a baby. But this time, Rumpel wants it to be one of ours. We’re the three best performers in the house with the highest number of clients, the highest number of successes.” He comes back over to stand in front of me, hands on hips, and smirks. “He can’t decide who to name as the head of House Stiltz, so the first one to have an heir of their own gets the throne.”
“That seems a little silly, coming from a guy who’s just stolen babies his whole life.” Sorrow must hear something in my tone because he sighs, the smirk slides away, and he comes over to sit beside me. “Besides, why would he give up acting as head of House Stiltz anyway?”
“You know I can’t tell you that,” Sorrow says, his voice low and soothing. It’s deceptive, beckoning me with long fingers to lay down beside him, relax, spread my legs. Ugh. My hormones are going to get me killed one day. One day soon probably, seeing as I’m sitting in my apartment with a complete stranger capable of tearing me limb from limb. “Why don’t you tell me why you had two hellhounds on your ass?”
“Just lucky, I guess?” I quip and Sorrow sighs, smiling and scooting a bit closer to me.
