Chapter 36
Assume The Position
Malachi stared at the woman before him, debating whether or not to pinch his arm or just go with it.
When he explained his actions—why he was being rude to the angel—he did not expect this type of response.
His demon nature was willing to blindly accept it, but something stopped him and demanded he understand it.
“Kelly,” he moaned, banging the back of his head against the door, irritated at this newer, softer side of himself.
“Help me out here, I’m dying to have you, but what is this all about?
I thought you were mad at me for how I was treating Uncle Wingman? ”
Grinning her sultry smile, she tugged on the hem of his t-shirt, pulling it up so far he had no choice but to take it off or be trapped in it.
“Because, Malachi. You care about me so much that you’re willing to lay your life down for your sworn enemy.
You’re willing to work with the other side to protect me.
You go against your very nature to be with me because you care that deeply.
I don’t know many men, human or otherwise, who would do that.
So, call me crazy; you’re a demon, and I’m half angel, we shouldn’t work, but dammit, we do. ”
“I…” He shook his head, then huffed out a wry laugh. “I don’t know what to say.” Snapping his gaze to hers, he paused. “Wait… yes, I do. Thank you, Kelly. Thank you for giving me a chance. For seeing me.”
“Mal,” she said, leaning into him. “Are you going to kiss me again?”
Grinning now, he picked her up again and carried her to the bed.
“I’m going to do more than that.” Gently laying her on the mattress, he stood, staring down at her.
“Kelly, you are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
I’ve seen a lot of things in my life. Good, bad, ugly, and depraved, but you…
you were worth waiting for.” Lowering himself over her, he took her face between his palms and smiled.
“And I would wait another hundred years if that’s what I had to do. ”
“Another hundred…” she murmured, then shook her head. “Later… get your hands on me.”
“Yes, ma’am,” he replied, lips against her throat.
“Where would you like those hands?” he asked with a devious smile as his lips continued their journey down her neck to her shoulder.
His fingers skimmed up her sides, raising her shirt as he traced her curves.
“Here?” He feathered his hand over her stomach.
“Or here?” The other hand splayed across her ribs, brushing the underside of her breast. Using one knee, he nudged her thighs wider and settled himself lower as he slipped the shirt over her head.
Dropping his lips to her collarbone, he took the strap of her bra in his teeth and dragged it off her shoulder.
His hand crept up to the slope of her breast and ran a fingertip over the edge of the lace.
“Definitely here,” he murmured as he pulled the material away from her skin.
His gaze drank her in, and he shuddered as he finished removing her bra. “Kelly,” he breathed. “Even being a demon and knowing angels exist, this, you, how perfect you are, makes me believe in God.”
Gasping, she grabbed his face between her palms. “You said it. The G word. Are you okay?”
Smiling shyly, he nodded. “I’m fine, I told you. You’re changing me. And I mean it. Only H-Heaven could create something as beautiful as you.” He moaned as her fingers curled into his waistband. “And now you’re trying to kill me.”
“No, I’m trying to get you naked. You talk too much.” She smirked. “Get the rest of these clothes off!”
Raising one hand, Malachi snapped his fingers, and the rest of their clothing vanished, appearing neatly folded across the room on a chair. “Impatient little thing, aren’t you? I wanted to savor you, but you’re so bossy.”
“Holy shit,” she blurted, her eyes wide, staring at the pile of material in a chair. “Malachi, how did you—” Her words choked off on a gasp as he dropped one hand between her legs and teased his fingers over her center.
“I seem to remember you said I talked too much, and you wanted me to touch you?” he whispered seductively in her ear, leaning down so his chest was barely brushing hers. Pushing against her thighs with his, he laughingly told her, “Wider, Officer Charles, assume the position.”
Twining her fingers in the unkempt locks of his hair, she suddenly tugged hard on them.
“Do not,” she demanded breathlessly as he ran his fingertips up and down over her inner thighs, “make police jokes. I swear to Lucifer and God both, Malachi, if you don’t have your cock in me in about sixty seconds, I will handcuff you. And not in a fun way.”
Malachi froze, and a large grin curved his lips up so hard his cheeks began to hurt.
“Oh no, don’t threaten me with a good time.
I like a little pain. And I promise, my pain tolerance is a lot higher than you expect.
But for fuck’s sake, Kelly, you can’t say stuff like that to me and not expect me to go a little feral.
I don’t want to hurt you.” Her fingers tightened in his hair again as he slid one finger inside of her, moaning about how incredibly wet she was.
He dropped his forehead to hers and captured her quivering lips with his when she cried out.
“That’s my girl. I had no idea you were this needy for me.
And I’m not even charming you. Hellfire and damnation, you really are going to be the end of me, aren’t you? ”
She arched her back as he took a nipple into his mouth and rolled it with his tongue.
He hummed against her skin, reveling in how delicious she was.
Her taste was warm and spicy, nothing overly exotic, just…
Kelly. She was like satin or silk under his tongue and hands.
Pressing his thumb to her clit, he began to stroke small circles over her while slipping another finger inside of her.
He curled them upward, narrowing in precisely on the special place that had her writhing under him.
“Malachi!” she cried out, her body shuddering as he moved his mouth to her other breast, running his other hand up her throat, lightly squeezing as she gasped.
He gazed up at her from under his lashes, almost freezing at the sight of her head thrown back, cheeks flushed a deep rose pink, lips parted and damp, coming undone beneath him.
Seeming to feel his stare, her gaze met his, and the desire he felt darkened his eyes until they were almost solid black.
“Kelly,” he rumbled in his chest, “I need you, but you are going to come in my hand before I have you.” With his words, he sat back on his knees, keeping his one hand stroking between her thighs, the other wrapped around his cock.
He was aching and throbbing, barely restraining himself from slamming into her as deep as he could.
Withdrawing his fingers from her, he smirked at her whimper and slipped them around the base of his shaft, painting himself in her arousal.
He slid two fingers from his other hand back inside her while he stroked himself now with the slippery coating.
Her eyes were drawn to him like a magnet, and she blurted, “Holy shit,” as she took in the size of him.
“I’ll take that as a compliment?” he asked in a husky voice with a hint of a laugh. “Never mind, I thought I told you to come!” he demanded, flames flickering in his eyes.
Like a magic spell, she obeyed his command and broke apart at his touch.
He moaned as she screamed, her walls clamping around his fingers.
Her breathing was rapid, and he could see her pulse pounding in her throat.
As she shuddered, coming down from her release, her eyes blinked several times slowly as she focused on him.
Leaning over her now, he hovered until his lips were inches from hers.
He slid his fingers into his mouth, sucking them clean.
“Mmm, I am definitely going to have to taste you longer next time, but for now, I want to be sure I meet my deadline for having my cock in you. I know we went a little over, but you didn’t seem to mind. ”
Surging up and capturing his mouth with hers, she smirked against his lips. “Shut up,” she mumbled. Tangling her legs with his, she suddenly flipped them over, and now she was straddling him.
Letting out a loud laugh, Malachi grasped her hips and lifted her over his straining shaft, then held her just above him.
“Mmm, I love a woman who can take charge. Fuck that is such a turn on to have you manhandle me. But now, can you take it all at once? Or do you need me to be gentle? I’m going to enjoy this no matter what…
but I want this to be exquisite for you.
” He lifted his hips slightly, teasing her entrance with the head of his cock, slowly rubbing back and forth while she squirmed, trying to lower herself on it.
“C’mon now, don’t be shy, speak up. Tell me what you want. ”
“Kinda… hard… to concentrate… when you’re… doing that!” she panted. Glancing down at what he was teasing her with, she moaned, “I don’t want to answer.”
Malachi lifted his upper body and nibbled on her earlobe. “And why is that?” he inquired, pushing just a little further into her, then chuckling low at her whimper when he pulled back out.
“You’re gonna make me say it…” she groaned and dug her fingers into his chest. “Look at me, do not get a big ego about this. But… I’ve never been with someone your…
um… size before. Is that a demon thing? Cause I have been with other guys, and they weren’t so…
yeah, maybe go slow. Or is it better to rip off the bandage and just go for it?
I don’t know!” Her breath gusted out in a hard whoosh as he crushed her against him.
