A/N: No smut in this chapter guys but some fun moments plus a bit more lore if you'd call it that to the story.

Now this story is completely fictional and the lore of it is loosely based off of other folklore or scriptures. I've taken from those and made up my own lore so please no one get technical with me or biblical. This book is a love story about a demon and warlock, obviously any religion is thrown out the window haha.

Now enjoy story time <3

Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone - we find it with another—Thomas Merton

D A N T E

An hour has passed since our last love making session, which makes it three in the morning. Merlin wanted us at my parent's estate in a few hours and Kat is going to be exhausted for her training.

I'd like to say I feel bad but honestly I don't. As I lay here in bed with her draped across my body, her head on my chest, softly breathing while peacefully sleeping; I can't think of anything else I'd rather be doing.

I've needed to use the restroom for the last thirty minutes, so I slowly slide out from underneath her. She slightly stirs in her sleep but doesn't wake.

While I'm in the restroom washing my hands I take a look at myself in the mirror and see all the little bruises on my neck from her that are already starting to fade away. I smile at the thought that mine fade faster while hers will take a while longer and how annoyed she got at them yesterday morning.

I open the bathroom door and in the warm glow of the small lamp on her bedside table, I can see that she's adjusted more in her sleep. She's on her stomach more with her arms crossed under the pillow and her face snuggled into it. She looks so peaceful. I gaze further down her body and the bed sheet has slipped down her body baring her full back. I can see the side of her breast as they push into the mattress.

God she's so breathtakingly beautiful.

Quietly, I walk over to the kitchen and pour me a glass of water. My throat is severely dry from our activities earlier and when I think about it, my lower region reacts and I feel a sudden soreness. I refill the glass with water and place it on the bedside table for Kat. Looking down at the waste basket filled with foil wrappers and used condoms, a smirk crosses my face as I crawl back into bed beside her.

Not wanting to wake her, I decide against touching her for now. She needs as much sleep as she can get before training. I shouldn't get too greedy, especially at how much I got to earlier.

Laying on my back with an arm behind my head, I playback some moments from our night together. The way our bodies molded perfectly together. The way her soft skin felt against my fingertips, my lips. The way my name coming from her mouth in a seductive way sounded like music to my ears.

I finally decide to try to fall asleep and get as much as I can too, since I'll be helping her train in a few hours. Rolling over on my side, I nuzzle up to Kat and wrap my arm around her lower back.

A few hours later the sound of Kat's alarm wakes me and quickly disappears as she shuts it off. I keep my eyes closed but can feel her get up from the bed and go into the restroom. I hear the shower turn on and grab a pillow to lay it over my face to block out the sunlight. I wish she'd get some black curtains in here like I have in my room but she has a thing for natural lighting in a room.

I guess I'd fallen back asleep while she was in the shower because I'm woken up by her climbing on top of me dressed in black yoga pants, a sports bra that keeps her swollen tits in place and a Social Distortion T-shirt that's been cut off at the midriff, exposing her stomach
