eyes narrowed on Isaak. “I tolerated you sneaking into the palace and partying, but this is different Isaak. You’ve gone well passed my breaking point. I think it’s time for you to remember who’s in charge here.”
Isaak held his palms up, fear flashing across his face and staining his eyes. “All right man, Hades, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean…”
A flame ignited in my hand.
“Oh, come on. I’m sorry!” His voice cracked. “What would Hartley say about this? She wouldn’t want you to hurt…”
His words were drowned out by my angry growl. Bringing up Hartley only served to ignite my fury more. I tossed the flame at him, but midway it fizzled out into a thin line of smoke.
What the hell?
Isaak’s brows disappeared into his sandy brown curls, his eyes darkening with a mixture of confusion and worry. He was well aware I hadn’t done that on purpose.
What the hell is wrong with my powers?
Chapter 5
Hartley
My god—kind of literally—I could get lost in Hayden’s kisses. His mouth consumed me, stealing my breath and making my heart slam against my ribcage in an erratic staccato. His hands were hot on my skin, caressing my curves, his grip soft one minute and firm the next.
“Are you sure your dad isn’t going to be home any time soon?” he asked, his breath hot on my throat as he covered it in kisses.
My fingers laced through his silken sinful hair. “Yes,” I breathed. “He’s probably out exercising his siren abilities at another bar.” I still couldn’t believe my dad was freaking half siren.
Hayden and I were at my house in my living room doing homework. Or at least we had been. But he was just looking too good not to touch. One thing led to another and the books were tossed aside while he laid me out on the couch.
“I always knew you had a little siren in you.” Hayden’s chuckle vibrated against my skin, tickling me and turning me on at the same time.
“I don’t even sing.”
Hayden peeked up, distant flames flickering in his irises. “ Can you sing?”
I pursed my lips in thought and shrugged. “It’s never really been my thing. I usually stick to dancing. Then again, I’ve never really tried.” I opened my mouth to belt out a note.
Hayden suddenly clamped his hand over it. “Oh hell no you don’t.”
My brows knit, silently questioning him.
“Your pouting is bad enough and you already mesmerize an entire crowd just by walking in the room.” He slowly removed his hand and kissed me gently. “I can barely say no to you as it is. You start singing a siren song and I’m done for.”
A smile threatened my lips as my fingers trailed under his shirt. “You’re already done for baby.”
He cocked his head in thought. “You’re probably right.” He helped me remove his shirt, tossing it on the floor. “But I’m about to have you undone.”
Heat seeped through my body at his promise. His lips crashed on mine again, devouring them in the possessive way I loved. His fingers found the top button on my shirt, nimbly undoing each one until my silk purple bra was showing.
“Mmm, Hartley.” His voice deepened, the control wavering. Hayden hooked my leg around his waist, hiking my skirt up and shifting his hips against mine.
A moan of pleasure slipped out my mouth as I arched into his body.
A dark laugh vibrated through his chest moments before he pulled away and started trailing kisses down my chest.
“Hayden,” I hissed when he arrived at my lower abdomen, flicking his tongue across the skin below my belly button. “Are you going to tease me all night?”
Another dark laugh. “Baby, I haven’t even started.”
A hot thrill rolled through me that Hayden could obviously feel from the naughty glint in his eyes.
His mouth clamped down on the button of my jean skirt, expertly prying it opened with his teeth. His tongue licked the skin at the top of my
