“You’re quite the little hell cat. I like that in a woman.”

“You’re still a cocky bastard,” I said. “Obnoxious in a man.” I went to put the kettle on for coffee. I got two cups down without asking him if he wanted any.

I scooped grounds into my French press. Every time I performed this ritual I took a moment to savor the rich aroma of the freshly ground beans before pouring in the boiling water. I heard Diel making a satisfied sound and I smiled to myself. Even demons have their wicked pleasures.

“How do you take your coffee?” I asked, looking over my shoulder.

“Black, thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” I said primly.

I poured the coffee and handed him a cup, one of my favorites with a delicate oriental pattern. I watched to see how he managed the dainty cup with his big hands. He managed. I scooped sugar into my cup, turns out quite a bit. It was even too much sugar for me - he was distracting, in a big way. I had been experimenting lately with different blends but I really had to find out the name of the brand Aidan used - mine didn’t compare. Diel took a long sip and smiled a lascivious smile. At me. Made me think naughty things.
