A Queen Among Gods Chapter Fourteen: Q&A - Jartre
“Holy shit that worked,” she says in surprise. I smirk at the adorable, shocked look on her face. “I’m surprised you called for me so soon. Or were you just testing to see if it would work?” I ask, quirking a curious brow. I know she told me not to, but I just can’t help myself, I’m dying to know what she’s thinking. 'Fuck me, even with his hair up in a ponytail he looks fine as hell! Definitely love the hair down more though, means something I can grab onto,' she muses to herself. Now this is a train of thought I greatly enjoy and hope to one day put into action. She straightens up, pours two large glasses of wine and picks up a notepad off the coffee table, my eyes following her every move with obsessive accuracy. “I have decided that there are too many things I don’t know or understand, and before I can make any type of decision about you there are questions I need answered,” she says firmly. Curious to see where this is going, I take a seat on the opposite end of the sofa, “W
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Fifteen: Lessons in Restraint - Jartre
My nostrils flare and I feel heat prickle up my spine, but I manage to reign myself in. She is not someone I wish to snap at. “You have a lot of nerve to show such disrespect. Has it not yet sunk in that you’re talking to a God?” I say bitingly. “Has it not yet sunk in that I don’t care? I mean, whatcha gonna do, smite me?” she says mockingly before her body slumps in confusion, “What does smite even mean?” I stare at her, once again stupefied by her ambivalence to the fact she’s talking to a God. She genuinely doesn’t give a flying fuck. She’s the first person besides the Gods themselves to never fear me. On one hand, I don’t want her to fear me, but on the other, it’s disconcerting to have such a weaker species feel no fear or reverence for me. I’m not accustomed to it, and I don’t like it. “It means to strike with a firm blow,” I begrudgingly answer. She snorts, “That’s it? So all this time when people talk about being smited by God they just mean God’s gonna smack a hoe? That
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Sixteen: Fresh Waffles - Gabriella
I stir awake as the delicious smell of waffles tickles my nose. I love waffles! My eyes fly open to see a tray on the bed beside me containing a glass of orange juice and a stack of waffles. Crispy, yet fluffy golden grids of goodness, with each pocket holding a sweet little mixture of butter and maple syrup. I have to gulp down the saliva building up in my mouth before it drools out onto my pillow. I quickly sit up and find Jartre sitting on the edge of the bed watching me in amusement, his long snowy white hair cascading around his gorgeous face almost glowing in the light of the morning sun. Fucking hell, does he always look this amazing? “Now I know how to wake you up; bribe you with food,” he chuckles, his deep rumbling laugh reminding me of thunder, which seems incredibly apt given what I now know. “You made me breakfast?” I ask in surprise, then only realise now that he’s still here in my loft, “You stayed the night?” “I more accurately conjured breakfast, but it will taste
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Seventeen: The Beast Feasts - Gabriella
His eyes light up, shining with so much hope that if I were standing would knock me off my feet, and with no preamble, his lips descend on mine in a kiss that consumes my senses. Instantly I feel my entire body light up like the Fourth of July while my brain is nowhere near the helm. As if rehearsed, my fingers find their way into his hair holding him in place – like I even could – as my lips press back firmly against his. His lips are soft as satin, but strong and commanding and as they begin to move against mine I feel my insides throbbing, waking up my libido from its dormant slumber once again. One large hand cups the back of my head gently, holding me in place as his fingers fist my hair tightly; possessively even, while his other arm snakes around me and pulls me flush against his body. I moan into his mouth as my lips move against his, committing them to memory and I feel myself getting wetter than I ever thought I was capable of. My tongue snakes out and teases the seam of hi
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Eighteen: Sudden Coldness - Gabriella
I think I briefly blacked out because suddenly I’m aware of being nestled in Jartre’s arms as his velveteen lips pepper featherlight kisses across my chest. “Welcome back,” I hear him say in amusement. “Wh…” Is all that comes out of me. Jesus my throat sounds hoarse as fuck. “You blacked out, but it was only for a minute,” he says, sounding proud of himself. I try to force my eyes open, but I feel my body becoming weightless and now feel myself laying on something very large and solid, yet surprisingly comfortable. “Don’t try to wake up if you’re not ready, I’ll hold you while you rest.” Instinct tells me to nuzzle myself against his chest, but I can’t even fucking do that. He’s fucking broken me. Can you become a quadriplegic from too many orgasms or am I about to become a medical study? Gods should come with a fucking warning label warning future sexual partners that they come with deadly fucking orgasms and oral skills. “Permission to read your mind since you seem to find it ha
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Nineteen: Sexy Santa - Gabriella
“So let me get this straight.” “There’s nothing straight about you,” I tease. He ignores me and continues. “You bump into the same guy who hooked up with you the other night, you get to talking and he escorts you home. You invite him in, more talking, he leaves and then comes back because he forgot his keys. Then things get hot and heavy and he ends up staying the night,” Derrick summarises the slightly truthful slash slightly fabricated story I told him while he gets dressed upstairs. “Yup, that’s pretty much the gist of it,” I say casually, laying back on the couch scrolling through Prime on my TV for something to watch as I chomp on some chips. I settle for that old 90s program Fact or Fiction. I’ve never finished the entire series, but I’m really good at picking which is fact and which is fiction. Derrick scoffs, “You know damn well he left his keys here on purpose.” I smile to myself, knowing Jartre probably doesn’t own a set of keys and even if he did, he doesn’t need them
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Twenty: Falling - Gabriella
“You’re so lucky I like you,” he huffs, picking up his dress and stomping up the stairs. “No, you’re lucky that you have small feet and can fit into my shoes,” I say as I walk into the kitchen and grab myself a soda from the fridge. “Go for the eight-inch platform stilettos with the diamond fringe around the ankle,” I instruct, taking a sip of my drink. “Oh, good choice!” I make my way back over to the couch and sit down, “So, have you already decided what the number will be?” “I’m going for a Whitney Houston medley. I’m going to open with One Moment in Time, transition into I Have Nothing, then do the reveal as I transition and end it with Queen of the Night.” “I can picture it in my head, and it is already glorious. Any backup dancers or is this a solo number?” “Backup dancers are more your thing, ain’t no one stealing my spotlight,” he says as I hear him snap his fingers. “These ones?” he asks. I look up to see him holding up the shoes I had suggested and nod, “Yup, those ar
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Twenty-One: Raging Storm - Jartre
I’m coming up on my 2000th lap and yet the rage burning through me refuses to dissipate. I swim to the edge of the plunge pool and lay my arms on the side. I watch the fountain that runs along the edge of the pool, cascade over the side hypnotically while a storm whirls around me, darkening the skies as the palm trees on my estate fight to stay rooted to the earth. Another bolt of lightning rips through the sky in a violent fury as Gabriella’s words echo hauntingly in my mind. Just like me, she was betrayed. Deceived by someone she let into her heart and her home. It enrages me to admit it, but at least Oshmin never fucking gloated about what he did, and though I’ll never say it out loud, he was an unwitting participant in Apaki’s deception. But that… that VILE, insignificant excuse for a human just stood in that hallway bragging about her sins. She threw them at Gabriella intending to wound her. A brief glimpse into her mind revealed enough of her depravity to me, and if it weren’t
