CHAPTER 20

CORDELIA

" Y ou know, Lia, seeing you with Levi has really inspired me to get back out in the dating pool." Sylvia winks at me as she grabs her purse. "Even if he's a literal demon with horns and four arms. Which is weird and fascinating at the same time."

I force a smile. "That's great, Syl. I hope you have fun on your date tonight." My voice comes out breathy.

"Oh, I will. Even if the date doesn't work out. We're going to that new restaurant that opened in New Obernzell." Sylvia checks herself out in the mirror before turning to the door. "Don't wait up for us. Mom has her 'tarot reading' night." She does the air quotes with her fingers. "And I, hopefully, will be getting laid. Bye!"

The door slams shut. I release a huge sigh as I glare at Levi.

"Really? She could have seen us!" I hiss at him.

Under the blanket draped over my lap on the couch, Levi's fingers stroke my pussy over my panties. He teases, making me squirm with barely contained desire.

"I apologize," he says, not sounding apologetic at all.

On the TV screen, the horror movie ramps up, shrill violins screeching as the hapless protagonist creeps down a shadowy hallway. But I can hardly focus, not with Levi's skilled fingers playing my body like an instrument, sending jolts of electric pleasure racing through my veins.

He chuckles when I shiver, his breath hot against my ear. "Something distracting you, love?"

"You know exactly what you're doing," I hiss, trying to sound annoyed even as my hips cant into his touch. "I'm trying to watch the movie," I lie.I don't give a single fuck about this movie. I don't even remember what I chose to watch.

"Mm, but isn't this more fun?" He dips his fingers into my panties. His thumb circles my clit and I have to bite back a moan. Slowly, maddeningly, he slides one long finger into my wet heat, then another, pumping in a steady rhythm as his heel massages my clit. "You're always so responsive for me, Lia. I love how eager your pretty little pussy is for my touch."

This demon drives me crazy. He's either giving all his attention to my stories, making me laugh, or making me come. There's not much more I could ever expect from a relationship.

I let my knees drop, giving him more space. My head falls back onto his shoulder. Levi closes his lips around my earlobe, nibbling until I get more shivers. Pleasure coils tighter and tighter in my core as his fingers work their magic, stoking the embers into an inferno. I'm wound so tightly, I'm sure the lightest touch will make me shatter.

My fingers curl around his thigh, my nails sinking into his flesh. He groans. I buck into his hand, chasing, chasing. I'm almost there... Almost.

Just as I'm teetering on the edge, Levi withdraws his hand. I whimper at the loss.

"No," I moan. "Please."

He hushes me. "There's no need to hide." He flicks his wrist. My pants disappear.

I gasp as Levi throws the sheets off. "Levi!" I cry out.

"Hush, love," he says, his voice extra low and sexy. "I'll hold the door if they come in."In one smooth motion, he pulls me onto his lap so I'm straddling his muscular thighs, my back against his chest.

I glance down. His pants are also mysteriously missing. "Did you use magic to take out our pants?"

Levi pushes my hair away and kisses my neck. "Mm." He sits back, sprawling with me on his chest. Cool air kisses my overheated skin as he spreads my legs wide, putting me on full display. "Much better," he purrs. "I want to watch you fall apart for me."

With a snap of his fingers, a large ornate mirror appears across from the couch, giving me a perfect view of myself. I gasp again and try to close my legs, but Levi holds them in place. My cheeks flush scarlet at the desperate picture I make—hair mussed, lips swollen, perched atop Levi's lap like his personal plaything. My pussy glistens, my wetness running down the inside of my thigh.

"Look at you. Utter perfection." His black eyes smolder with dark promise in the reflection as he parts my outer lips, clever fingers finding my throbbing clit once more. "So beautiful like this, spread out for my pleasure."

I can only sigh as he works me higher, need pulsing through me with every deliberate stroke. Levi shoves my shirt up, then rips it over my head, exposing my breasts, too. He palms one, groaning into my neck. My world narrows to the delicious drag of his fingers over my sensitive flesh, the obscene wet sounds of my arousal, the heat of his body bracketing mine.

"That's it, love. Come for me," Levi coaxes, voice a sinful rasp. He pumps one, then two fingers into me, still working my clit. "I want to feel this greedy little cunt squeeze my fingers like a vice."

His filthy words are my undoing. Pressure shatters and I tumble into ecstasy with a scream, inner muscles clamping down on his fingers as wave after wave of pleasure crashes over me. White lights pop in the back of my eyelids. I soar. Levi works me through it, prolonging the bliss until I collapse against his chest, spent and trembling.

"Good girl," he croons, petting my hair. "You did so well." He gives me a moment, then kisses the corner of my mouth. "Ready to take my cock?"

I can only nod.Keeping me turned to face the mirror, Levi readjusts me to free his huge, thick cock. It juts upwards from between my thighs, flushed a deep red and leaking copiously at the tip. I feel empty, aching to be filled by him.

As if reading my mind, he notches the broad head at my entrance. "Gonna feel so good stretching this tight little pussy with my cock. Nice and slow."

Two of his hands wrap around my waist. Inch by excruciating inch, Levi lowers me down, letting gravity impale me on his thick shaft. I watch, enraptured, as my body reluctantly yields to the invasion, swallowing him into my core. It's almost too much—the burn and stretch as he splits me open.

But the grooves and bumps? Holy fuck, it's pure bliss. It feels absolutely amazing. They caress my inner walls, doubling and tripling the pleasure. I watch it disappear inside me, my lips parted in amazement.

I would never do this with anyone else. Fuck with a mirror in front of me? With my legs spread open like that? Never. I can see the rolls in my stomach, how my hips look when I'm sitting, and how my breasts sag slightly because of their weight.

But with Levi? I'd do anything. He makes me feel powerful. Sexy.

Loved .

"Halfway there. You're doing amazing." Levi's gravelly praise washes over me like a benediction. "Knew you'd take me so well. Like this cunt was made just for me." With a third hand, he reaches between my thighs to massage my clit again. It's like he's obsessed with my pleasure.

When I'm finally fully seated, it knocks the breath from my lungs. I've never felt so full, so utterly consumed. He's buried almost to his knot, touching places inside me I didn't know existed.

For a moment we both pause, adjusting to the intensity of the moment. I reach out and touch the swollen skin of his knot.

Levi hisses, his cock twitching inside me. "Don't do that, love," he murmurs, his voice suddenly strained. "It's already a struggle not to come the second your pussy sucks me in."

So, his knot is extra sensitive. Good to know.

Levi grips my hips and starts to move, rolling his pelvis to grind his cock deep. He raises me slightly off his lap, then pulls me back down. I don't have to do anything, just enjoy. Savor.

But I want to. I want to make him feel good, too.

Leaning forward, I prop my hands on his knees. He's big enough he can still look at the mirror from over my shoulder. Tilting my hips, I search for his knot.

My clit rubs against it. It's pure bliss.

Levi hisses again. "Fuck, Lia."

I find my balance and grind my clit against his cock.His motions send sparks skittering up my spine and I throw my head back on a gasp, bouncing feverishly on his lap, grinding, grinding.

"Fuck. You're perfect, Lia. Squeezing me like a goddamn vice." The dirty praise spills from his lips as he pistons up into me, meeting every downward slam. "Love your sweet little pussy. You're going to fucking ruin me."

All I can do is hold on and take it as he sets a relentless pace, the wet slap of skin on skin obscene in the quiet room. The coil inside me winds tighter and tighter, my thighs trembling with strain. I'm so close, so close, and every grind of his knot against my clit drives me higher, promising the biggest of all orgasm.

"Come on my cock like a good girl."

His name is a broken prayer on my lips as the tension snaps and I unravel violently, my orgasm slamming into me like a tidal wave. I convulse around the thick length spearing me open, inner muscles rippling and grasping.

"Fuck!" With an animalistic snarl, Levi buries himself one last time and finds his own release. I feel the scorching heat of his come flood my core as he pulses inside me. More. Even more. He feels me to the brim. I feel so full of it it's uncomfortable. For a moment, I swear I see my lower abdomen distend, bloating.

Then Levi pulls out, and his come pours out of me, down his cock and legs. I shiver with aftershocks, my pussy clenching around the remnants of our orgasms. My body grows heavy. I struggle to catch my breath, leaning back into him again.

Levi gathers my limp, sated form into his strong arms, cradling me tenderly to his chest. He brushes sweaty tendrils of hair off my face and presses a kiss to my temple as I curl into his lap, basking in the afterglow.

I could spend forever like this.

My heart is full and warm. Emotion stings my eyes. I press my face into his neck.

I can't run from it. No, I can't escape the truth any longer. This was supposed to be fake. Levi doesn't belong here.

And yet I'm in love with him. For the first time in my life, I'm in love with someone. Aproud, arrogant, frustrating demon king who swept into my life and changed everything.And I'm absolutely petrified. Because now I have so much more to lose.
