“I have every intention of finishing what we started, Persephone. When I fuck you, I plan on taking my time. I want to watch you come apart as I bury myself in you. I plan on tasting every moan out of your lips as you bounce on my cock, watching you take every inch I give you like the good girl you are.”
She swallowed as I tilted her chin up, capturing her lips with mine.
“But that’s not what you need right now.”
I could feel the exhaustion gnawing away at her, like the last flickers of a dying candle. I wanted nothing more than to bend Persephone over the edge of the pool and fuck her until morning, but despite how good that would feel for a moment, it would drain what little energy she had left.
“The water has healing properties,” I said, gathering handfuls of the enchanted water and running it through her hair.She seemed to realize I was right, because she settled against me a moment later.
That small display of trust stirred something in my chest. This was a different type of vulnerability, one that left her body and soul open for me in a far more intimate way.

PERSEPHONE
“There’sno need for soap or oils,” Aidoneus continued, his strong fingers working out the soreness of my muscles. Gods, it felt nearly as good as his lips on mine. I’d been ready to give him everything only moments ago and had been hurt by his refusal, but Aidoneus worshiped my body with his hands, erasing the horrors of the last day as I came alive beneath his touch.
Sinking into him, I closed my eyes, allowing my cheek to rest against his chest as his hands roved over my back. They worked lower, one exploring the curves of my ass as the other traced patterns along my thighs.
Shifting my back against his chest, I parted my legs for him, wanting his touch everywhere. He’d been right about me needing rest, but I already felt better than I had a few minutes ago.
“The water will restore you to peak health,” Aidoneus breathed.
My breathing deepened as his fingers trailed up, his knuckles grazing my entrance. His other hand wrapped around me, fingers splayed against my stomach, hindering me from grinding further into his touch.
“Such a needy little witch,” he purred, stroking me harder. I whimpered against his restraint, needing friction. He cupped my pussy, his palm grinding into my clit as his fingers pushed inside. “Is this what you want?”
I moaned around the stretch, my eyes falling closed as he pumped, only to withdraw in the next breath. Before I could complain, Aidoneus lifted us from the pool, sitting us on the edge of the heated springs. He lifted me as if he owned me. As if he would move and position my body however and whenever he pleased.
“Eyes open, Persephone.” His breath fanned my ear.
My eyes fluttered open, staring across the steaming pool to a large obsidian wall, the smooth sheet of rock reflecting us as clearly as a mirror.
“I want you to watch as your demon makes you come.”
I turned my neck to look up at him, but he gripped my chin, making me watch our reflections as his other hand trailed down the inside of my thigh. The pads of his fingers wrapped around my knee, lifting my leg up and over his before doing the same to the other side.
My skin flushed. I wasn’t sure if it was from desire or shame, but then Aidoneus was there, lips kissing along the curve of my neck as his gaze held mine in our reflection.
“Look at you spread wide for me.” I whimpered as he ran his knuckles along my slit, revealing just how turned on I was. “If you look away, I stop.”
He angled his knees, spreading me wider, exposing all of me. Swallowing, I kept my eyes open, fixed on where his fingers ran the length of me, teasing and taunting until I was panting with need.
“Aidoneus,” I pleaded, reaching between my legs, trying to gain some relief, only for him to capture my hand and pin it on the curve of my stomach.
“Are you desperate for me, little witch?” he whispered as he slid two fingers between my slick heat until his palm ground against my clit.
My head fell back against his chest as I met each thrust, riding his fingers. Every nerve ending stood poised as that coil drew tighter. Aidoneus kept me trapped just before release, teetering on the edge of a blade in the best and worst way possible.
“Beg me,” he commanded as his pace increased.
“Please, Aidoneus,” I breathed, my body shaking as I shamelessly ground my ass against his hard cock at my back. The hunger in his eyes was just as ravenous as my own. I would beg if he wanted me to, but we both knew I wasn’t the only desperate one.
He released my hand with a growl only to wrap his fingers around my neck. Firm pressure tilted my head up, stretching my body as he added a third finger inside. My heart raced, thundering in my ears as his grip on my throat started to tighten, his fingers fucking my pussy ruthlessly. Steam rose around us, the gentle bubbling water, the only other sounds besides the needy breaths escaping me, until those too were cut off.
“You look so beautiful panting and wet for me.”
He met my gaze in the reflection, my vision starting to spot from the lack of oxygen. My hand came up, grasping his forearm, but I didn’t push him away. Didn’t ask him to stop.
