Fallen (Chronicles of the Fallen, #1)

He nods and offers a smile. “For now, it means I’m able to remain on earth for as long as you’ll have me.” He chuckles, knowing he should tell her he’ll never die or grow old. He knows he should tell her everything right here and now but, against his better judgment, he decides that this is enough for one day. “I'm not sure where I fit in between Heaven and Hell yet, but we can discuss this more later, if you like.”


Lisa nods and smiles. “I would like that.” She sighs and glides her hands down to his biceps. “I mean, if you plan on being my boyfriend, I should know how this hybrid thing works.” She raises a brow and looks at Alex.

His eyes widen slightly and he smiles, feeling relief rush through him. He knew Lisa was an amazing woman; she’s accepted him no matter what. “Boyfriend? Hmm…” He pauses as if to think about her offer. She gasps and playfully slaps his arm. “Hey now! I’m teasing.” He chuckles, then adjusts his arms around her waist again, pulling her closer. His voice lowers an octave. “I want to be more than your boyfriend, Lisa. I want you to be mine.”

Lisa opens her lips to respond, but Alex crushes his lips to hers, sending a shock through her body. She’s whimpers and tilts her head, parting her lips and accepting his tongue as it enters her mouth. His hands move across her back, wrapping further around her, pulling her flush against him. Her heartbeat picks up and she moans softly. The hunger in his lips causes her knees to weaken. His tongue glides over hers and their lips move as one. His hands move down over her ass, squeezing her closer. She feels his erection pressing through his clothes and she lets out another moan.

Her body heats up, her hands moving up his arms and around his neck. Her breasts press against his chest and a gentle heat throbs between her thighs. She mumbles softly against his lips, “I guess it goes without saying that your lips are no longer sensitive?”

Alex chuckles against her lips. Pulling back, he says “As an angel, it burned me each time we kissed.” He grins playfully. “Now, I only feel your soft lips against my own.”

She raises a single brow and grins. “Then I suggest you continue kissing me. You have a lot of making up to do.”

A growl erupts from Alex’s lips. Raising his hands, he grasps her cheeks and claims her lips again. Letting out a moan, her hands move down Alex’s chest, allowing her fingers to memorize the contours of his chest. His muscles ripple underneath her fingers. She moves her hands down his abs. She pushes her hands around his back and he leans into her.

He moves his hands down her neck, past her shoulders, to her breasts. Gently, he squeezes them, and she gasps against his lips. Moving away from her lips, he kisses her jawline, then just under her ear. Feeling his breath fan across her skin, she tilts her head slightly, another moan escaping.

Pulling her hands back from his chest, she pushes them around his neck. Alex glides his hands down to her waist, then back to her ass. He lifts her up, Lisa wrapping her legs around his waist. As they continue to kiss, her arms tighten around his neck and the heat grows between her thighs, his erection pressing hard against her.

Walking into her bedroom, Alex lays her down on the bed. His lips move down to her neck, then he grinds against her. Gasping, Lisa’s back arches slightly. “Oh, my god,” she whispers. Alex grins against her neck, then nibbles on her ear, his breath sending a shiver through her body. Bringing a hand down to her breast, he gently squeezes it, pinching her erect nipple through the material of her shirt.

“I love you,” he whispers to her. His lips move down her neck and his hands begins unbuttoning her top. Separating the material, he kisses down her chest, between her breasts. Her hands move up into his hair, her legs hugging around his body.

Her eyes watch Alex. When he meets her gaze, she says “I love you, too.” The blue in his irises glows softly. He smiles and moves back up, kissing her again. The kissing turns more aggressive and she whimpers when he grinds against her again.

Her hands press against his chest and he sits up. Her hands move over his skin. “I have too much on. Help me?” She bites her lip playfully.

Grasping one of her hands, he brings it to his lips and kisses the top of it. She lets out a giggle as he pulls her up. Grasping the hem of her shirt, he pulls it over her head, tossing it behind him. His eyes move over her body, appreciating the beauty that is Lisa. Reaching behind her, he unfastens her bra; like the top, he tosses it.
