There is nothing more beautiful than watching an innocent angel fall apart at my sinful actions. I'm going to ruin her.

"You know," she whispers, "Everyone would be disgusted by the things I would let you do to me."
I smirk. She's made for me...

"Missed you," I muttered into Eros's neck. His body was tense as I embraced him, and I gave myself a reminder to massage his shoulders later.
"You smell good," he spoke, kissing my temple before setting his keys down. Jaden and Michael walked in behind him. They looked tired.
Jaden had this permanent mask of seriousness on his expression that I rarely ever saw. It was like he was disgusted by something. I couldn't tell, and I definitely wasn't going to ask.
"Thanks," I grinned, watching the exhaustion roll off his body.
He probably had a long day. I could only imagine what it entailed. Based on Jaden's face, I gathered it was probably unpleasant.
"What'd you cook?" Eros asks, heading through the foyer to greet Reign, who was still sitting lazily on the couch.
"Pasta, of course," I humored, following behind him. I steered clear of Jaden and Michael's way, not wanting to risk anything.
"I also called the planner earlier today," I spoke quietly as we walked, "She said everything is finally in the works. There shouldn't be any last-minute stress to worry about."
"Good," Augustine nodded, squeezing my hand before heading to the couch with the others.
I went ahead and got their food together, knowing they were probably starving after today.
Augustine didn't like when I did things for him, but he's always done so much for me. It's only fair. And I enjoy helping him, it makes him seem like a real person with real struggles. He would never ask, though. He's a "do-it-on-my-own" type of guy.
"Thanks, Amorette," Michael said, grabbing a plate.
"Welcome," I placed the other plates onto the island for the others. I grabbed the book I was reading and headed to the doors that led to the patio, deciding to spend a little time outside while the weather was still nice.
I kept the sliding doors open, mostly because I still wanted to hear what they were doing. It made me feel less alone in the house.
I also had homework for my college classes, but I could do that another time. Probably the minute before it's due.
I smiled to myself at that.
