@EternalHarlot << that she could toy with his emotions like this. No one else ever had that ability* Answer my question, Aphrodite. *He used her full name instead of either nickname he had for her*
@EternalHarlot << each word as he let her hand go and backed away, shrugging off her question* Needed to let off some steam. So there was a street brawl. You don't want to see the other guys involved. *He had thoroughly beat their asses but she didn't need to know that. He was ashamed enough>>
@EternalHarlot *Normally he wouldn't care if she dodged his question but right now? Her touch was just adding fuel to the pain, causing him to catch her hand in a tight but not brutal grip. His eyes opened and gave her a tormented look* What. Are. You. Doing. Here? *He asked, enunciating >>
@EternalHarlot << Whatever she was bringing my way. Taking deep breaths hurt due to bruises along my rib cage but I still needed them to calm down so the pain took over and it almost erased what I felt in my chest where my heart should have been*
@EternalHarlot << and not in the mood for this. She had already cut my damn heart out tonight, was she here for round two? I moved aside, not wanting her to stand out in the rain and I downed my glass instead of sipping it, setting it down before trying to square my shoulders to prepare for >>
@EternalHarlot *My head whipped around as i heard the familiar voice at my front door as a hand pounded on the thick wood. Walking towards it, I couldn't believe my ears but then my eyes closed and I took a deep breath before opening the door* What are you doing here? *I asked, my voice rough>>
@EternalHarlot << I healed quickly. I didn't waste any time changing from the suit I wore to a pair of sweat pants, leaving the shirt out. Walking barefoot to my parlor, I moved to the drink cart and poured straight whiskey and downed the first glass before pouring a second one to sip >>
@EternalHarlot *A few hours later, I walked inside my house and didn't even bother locking my door. The anger and pain still pulsing through me. I had found a street brawl and inserted myself. There was a cut on my nose and at my hair line and my ribs would have bruises after that but at least>
@EternalHarlot << open the door and as I walked out, the cold and calculated war god persona was back into place. The relaxed and playful aura I had around her was in the shitter. My deadlier one quickly replaced it as I made my way out. That's how it had to be. So closed off I would be.*
@EternalHarlot << mind and turned away from me. In my head, I was turning around, stalking over and taking her lips with mine. My arms were around her and the kiss was possessive, owning. Fuck, how badly I wanted that... Alas, nope. She cut me off one last time. Giving a stiff nod, I moved to >
@EternalHarlot *My body stilled at the door, back to her as she called out to me. Fuck, if she finished that call with what I wanted to hear, I would be a goner. The fight would be lost instantly. My eyes closed as I waited for a few breaths, pain lacerating my entire being as she said never >>
