Chapter
3
By

“What
the hell do you mean there is no love in the air?” Eros asked,
running his hand down his face.
Bacchus
stared at him like he’d grown two heads. “Dude, since you all but
stopped fucking your way through all the single goddesses, there’s
been a major shift on Earth.”
Eros
narrowed his eyes. “And that’s my concern how? Did you see what
they depict me as?” He slapped himself in the side of the head. “Of
course you did. You’re the one who pointed it out to me. Serves
them right. If they gave me the respect I deserve, then I’d shoot
an arrow at some of their asses. But,” he held up his hand, “not
in a fucking diaper.”
His
friend doubled over in laughter, making Eros think about shooting him
with an arrow--and not a love one. When it seemed Bacchus
wasn’t going to stop laughing, he stepped around him, shoving him a
little harder than necessary.
“Seriously,
you are even harshing my mojo.” Bacchus wiped his eyes, mirth still
sparking in them.
Eros
raised his left brow. “Are you having problems getting it up?” He
wasn’t going to tell his buddy that was his issue; the man would
probably run a full page ad in the Gods Tribune. Nope, not if
he had breath in his body.
“Just
take a look at some of the headlines. You knew we would lose some of
our powers if the humans didn’t believe in us.” Humor faded from
Bacchus’s voice as he waved his hand. A giant screen appeared,
showing what seemed to be human news.
He’d
never really paid much attention to the lesser beings--not that he
hadn’t fucked a few thousand, give or take a few hundred--but their
problems weren’t his to be bothered with.
Headline
after headline showed couple after couple breaking up or heading for
divorce. Eros swiped his hand in the air, making the pictures go
faster, hoping there was an end. It was like an epidemic had struck.
A lovesick potion or some shit.
“How,
exactly, does this have something to do with me?”
Again,
Bacchus showed him another image. Eros squinted at the vision of the
woman, but other than her being a beauty, he had no idea who she was,
or why he felt so drawn to her.
Like
he was talking to a child, Bacchus shook his head. “You, my friend,
need to fix this, and you can’t do it from up here. Go to earth,
and do your thing. Fuck some women, or men, or whatever, but make it
right. Bring back the love, or I’m afraid none of us are going to
be getting any.” With those parting words, Bacchus disappeared as
quickly as he came.
The
image of the beautiful woman flashed into his mind. “Fuck,” he
growled.
He
flashed to the city where he’d seen the woman staring at the store
front that had been decorated with hearts of varying sizes. The
display had been torn down and replaced with an obscene theme of
black and grey tombstones with hearts stabbed through. Eros didn’t
even want to know the person who took the time to shove all those
hearts into the cherub’s ass. His own clenched in response.
“Excuse
me, do you have a dollar?”
Eros
jolted at the raspy female voice. Looking down, he saw a short older
woman pushing a cart filled with what looked like her entire life.
His heart ached at the humanity. Being a god, he wanted to wave his
hand and take away all her problems, but as he stared around him, he
noticed the dregs of humanity roamed all around. While he pondered
life, it seemed the little human got tired of waiting on him and
continued past, mumbling about good looking men with small penises.
Eros smiled in spite of himself.
“First
order of business is finding a place to stay. Second is shooting some
love arrows,” he muttered.
“You
might want to check into an institute as your first order of
business.”
His
dick, which had been on a hiatus since the party at Bacchus’, chose
that moment to wake up. Eyes as blue as the clearest sky stared up at
him from what had to be one of the most beautiful creatures on heaven
and earth. Her bow-shaped mouth was meant for sin, and the luscious
curves encased in drab clothing shouldn’t be making him fantasize
about getting her naked. His body didn’t seem to care that she
wasn’t dressed for seduction.
Fingers
snapping in his face brought his mind out of the gutter. “Did you
hear a word I just said?” she asked.
“Honestly?”
He shook his head. “I don’t need to check into anything except a
hotel. Can you point me in the right direction?” He didn’t need
her help, unless it was inside her, then he most definitely needed
her for that.
She
looked him up and down. “I’d say you’re more of an uptown boy
than a downtown one.”
Visions
of going downtown on her filled his head. He couldn’t help the
smile that spread across his face. The resulting red stain on the
beauty’s cheeks gave him hope since his dick hadn’t deflated yet.
“Are
you busy tonight?” He changed the subject, watching her like a
predator. His bow and arrows vibrated on his back. It took monumental
effort not to reach behind and make sure they were still invisible to
the humans.
Her
eyes narrowed. “Are you asking me out on a date?”
Rocking
back on his heels, he stared at her incredulous face. “Yes.”
“Let’s
get you settled into a hotel, and then we’ll discuss a possible
date. Maybe coffee or something.”
“Fair
enough. What’s your name, sweetheart?” Eros pressed his hand to
the woman’s back, steering her around a group of arguing couples.
The situation seemed to be worse than he’d thought. He wasn’t
sure what he needed to do, but he agreed it needed to be done
quickly.
“Tessa,
my name is Tessa.”
“What
a lovely name, Tessa. I’m Eric.” If he was to walk around and
tell people his real name, he was sure he’d get strange looks.
Once
he’d secured a room and a meeting time at the little coffee bar
next to the hotel with the lovely Tessa, Eros couldn’t wait for
their date. The last time he’d been this excited to meet a
female…well, he actually couldn’t remember, but he was sure it
was epic.
Dressing
with care, he checked his watch and decided it was close enough to
the hour. He made his way across the lobby. As soon as he entered, he
spotted Tessa. She was dressed in an outfit that would turn any man’s
head. The skintight red ensemble hugged every curve and displayed her
breasts to perfection. His mouth watered at the thought of peeling it
off. “Mind out of gutter or you’ll scare her off,” he muttered.
“Excuse
me. Are you talking to me?” A man who looked like he’d
definitely ate his Wheaties glared at him.
“Nope,
I was talking to myself.”
The
big man took a step back. As if scared whatever crazy Eros was would
rub off on him.
He
made his way over to where Tessa stood. She looked a little afraid,
which was the last thing he wanted from her. “You look beautiful,
sweetheart.”
Tessa
snorted. “Does that usually work with your other women?”
“Well,
actually, I can’t remember. But I can promise they all would pale
in comparison to you.” He grabbed both of her hands and held them
out to their sides, whistling. “Why would you hide this body under
those drab clothes from earlier?” He kept the shudder from wracking
him.
They
found a table in the corner after ordering what Tessa described as
liquid gold in a cup. Eros didn’t understand the humans’ need for
the brew but had to concede the smell was delicious. His first taste
made him sigh in pleasure. “This is delicious.” He drank more,
watching his date sip at her cup.
“How
about you show me your hotel room?” Long lashes blinked innocently
over the rim of her mug.
Eros
couldn’t think of a reason to say no, nodding and standing in one
motion. Commotion near the entrance, accompanied by angry shouts had
him stepping in front of Tessa. “Stay here.” He strode toward the
front, finding the man he’d spoken with earlier holding a smaller
man by the throat, with a young woman hanging onto his arm. In his
long life, and being a wise man, he was able to put two and one
together, coming up with a love triangle. Silly humans.
“I
swear, Jake, she and I are just friends. I was only helping her with
her homework.”
“Then
why were you sitting so close to her, touching her arm like you had
the right?”
A
female growl came from the woman jerking on his arm. “Because he
was pointing out the answer on the computer, then showing me how I
did it wrong on my paper. God, you are such a dummy.”
“Yeah,
which is why you’re banging this guy.”
Before
the poor guy turned another shade of red, Eros stepped in between
them. He could see the love the young woman had for the big burly
dude, even if he was being an ass. With a sleight of hand, he let his
power flow from one of his arrows, reinforcing the love the man had
for his woman. Instantly he dropped the other man who scrambled away.
A sweep of love emotion filled the coffeehouse, filling him with more
power. He turned to see several couples kissing.
With
a shrug of his shoulders he went back to the table and held his hand
out. “Where were we?”
She
placed her smaller one in his. “You were gonna show me what you
got.”
His
dick pressed against his slacks, agreeing wholeheartedly.
Outside
he saw the homeless woman again and felt guilty for not giving her
money. He took a step toward her, but the blaring of a horn stopped
him from being run over by a city bus. Eros looked across the street,
thinking he’d take her some when the traffic cleared, but was
shocked to find the spot the woman had been standing empty. Turning
his head back and forth, he could find no sign.
He
swept Tessa under his arm and guided them back toward his hotel
suite. Inside the elevator her scent tickled his nose; a memory of a
nymph popped into his mind.
“Can
I get you a drink?” He asked, opening the fridge, turning to see
Tessa standing in a red lace bra and panty. “Fuck,” he swore.
Tessa
shivered, trying to hide the fact she was freaked the heck out. She
was in a hotel room with Eros, the god who had caused her complete
world breakdown, yet she wanted…no, she did not want him. This was
all part of the plan.
Her
plan flew out the window as he stalked toward her, his hot gaze
roaming over her from head to toe. It felt like a physical caress,
and then his warm palm was touching her shoulder, his lips brushed
hers, and Tessa forgot everything except Eros.
“Oh,
God, you taste like sunshine and rainbows.” Eros tongue licked over
her lips, coaxing between. Tessa moaned into the warm wet caress.
Hands sliding over her flesh lit up nerve endings she didn’t know
she had.
Her
own palms took a leisurely path, slipping the buttons of his shirt
free, needing to feel the man beneath. Jerking at the ends to free
them from the pants, she fumbled with the belt buckle until at last,
it too was open, and then her fingers were holding all that male
hardness. Goddess, she wasn’t sure how that had fit inside her.
“Just
like that. Squeeze a little harder,” Eros groaned.
Cool
air brushed her breasts, hardening her nipples. Eros’ head bent,
taking one peak into his warm wet mouth. Tessa reached for something
to hold onto other than the dick in her hand as her knees wobbled.
The
world spun, and then cool cotton brushed her back. The handsome devil
loomed over her, completely naked. He stared at her; a frown pulled
at his features. She tugged to bring him back down to her. His lips
began tracing a path down her body, paying homage to each breast,
over her tummy and then his wide shoulders were pushing her legs
apart. The tiny red thong was no barrier for his hot breath. Her eyes
squeezed shut then snapped open at the feel of him ripping the last
article of clothing from her body.
“Fucking
amazing. You smell like everything I have ever wanted only didn’t
know I wanted.”
Eros
licked around the part of her that throbbed, sending sparks of
electricity through her. Two large fingers spread her open, making
her acutely aware of the vulnerable position she was in, and then she
was lost to feeling. He licked and sucked, bringing her to a quick
hard orgasm she swore curled her toes. The lights in the hotel
flickered, followed by a screeching alarm. Tessa froze, reality
hitting her. She was under the one man who she shouldn’t be, ready
to give herself to him again, forgetting all about her revenge.
Water
hit her, soaking her and Eros who tried to scramble up. “What the
hell?” Eros tossed a blanket over Tessa.
The
untimely, or timely drenching was like a bucket of ice water on her.
Tessa scrambled off the side of the bed, looking for her red dress. A
pounding on the door startled them both.
“Hotel
security.”
Eros
jerked his slacks on and strode toward the door. Tessa made sure she
was hidden when he cracked the door open. “We need everyone to exit
the building until we make sure the fire is contained and are
clearing the upper levels first. You’ll need to take the stairs,
and I suggest you take your identification, just in case.”
Tessa
stepped around both men, hurrying for the steps with the blinking
EXIT sign. She heard her name being yelled from behind but kept
going. No way in heck was she going back there, or letting him
anywhere near her until she had her armor back on.
