Chapter 12
An Understanding...For Now?
***EPOV
I was in heaven. For the first time in the reality of my existence, I had touched nirvana.
And fallen. Fallen back down so hard my body was still a throbbing mess from the impact.
My blood boiled, every beat of my heart sending it south.
Right into my dick.
It was already there.
Correction: it was somehow mass-producing more blood and sending that to my dick.
A dick that was painfully hard and fully erect for the first time in thousands of years.
And it'd never been this bad. The hard-ons of my long, passed youth were nothing compared to this.
She'd done this to me. The new she-demon in my life.
With her tea.
And her body.
No, her tea.
Her amazing, tongue seducing, tastebud throbbing tea.
It isn't just her, tea. Admit it already!
It was undeniable. I was beyond fucking aroused. Just as tempted as every fool I'd ever cursed.

"Why are you being nice to me all of a sudden?" I asked, catching myself by surprise.

Her small hands, which were wrapped around her steaming mug, called my up-to-now dormant artistic eye once more.
"I think it might be possible for us to come to some sort of...understanding...for now."
"An understanding? Explain," I said, trying to look away from her throat.
For fuck's sake, what was it with me and her damned throat?
