1. Into Play

ZEDKIEL

It’s the following day and I’m going to try to talk to her. She’s wearing a very appealing black lace bra and thong as she admires her body in the mirror. Or should I say Evangeline’s body? Either way, I can’t deny that she’s a dangerous temptation.

“Do you want to have some fun? You enjoyed it the last time.” She says as she turns and advances on me. She runs her tongue along her lips before she bites down on her lower one.

Her hips sway sensually and her scent fills my nose. Still, Evangeline’s but it’s a little different

I can’t explain it…

She is in her body, after all.

“Not like this.” I say. The plan is not to anger her. “How about we take it slow?”

“You didn’t seem to want slow last time.” She counters.

“I didn’t know it was you… now that I do… let’s not forget you’re you and deserve to be treated equally.” I say huskily.

She frowns, watching me suspiciously before she climbs into my lap, running her hands up

my arms.

It feels like a betrayal to Evangeline and although it may be her body, it’s not her, but I have to keep Evelyn calm.

‘And I thought you wanted to help her.’ Zerachiel scoffs.

‘Helping someone and wanting to fuck them is two entirely different things. You’re acting like a woman, jumping to conclusions.’ I snarl back.

“Then what do you have in mind?” Evelyn says, running a finger along my lips.

I take hold of her wrists, pulling her hands down to my chest.

“Break this curse on all of us.” I say quietly, caressing her hands.

Play smart…

Her eyes soften and she nods.

“Ok” She says. She’s about to get off when she suddenly presses her lips against mine.

I stiffen, moving back sharply and her eyes flash black as she glares at me suspiciously.

“As I said, let’s take things slow.” I say, kissing her hands softly.

Don’t hate me, Evangeline….

‘Yes, keep kissing her and she’ll expect more.’ Zerachiel sneers.

‘I know what I’m doing. I need to keep her in control. The bottom line is she holds Evangeline’s power, that of the moon goddess. Use your brains. Have you ever considered that perhaps you’re doing more harm than good?’ I shoot back. I’m fucking struggling not to unleash my irritation on him.
