(Book #2 in the DAWN series)
#19 in Fantasy
Aurora Venerelli, the new goddess-to-be in Olympus, has overcome quite a few difficulties on the rocky-road to deity-ship; with an assassination attempt on her life, betrayal around every corn...
"Wait, if I win- I get whatever I want as well..." I said as I trailed a finger down his chest. Thanatos shivered and nodded eagerly.
"Of course; anything you want."
"Promise?" I asked just to make sure- I had a devious plan in my head that Thanatos wasn't going to like very much.
"I promise. Anything..." He spoke the word like a prayer; I could tell he was more than eager. I inhaled a steady breath and took hold of his hand.

Thanatos was waiting impatiently for me on his wide bed; a look of pure enthusiasm clearly glimmering in his red eyes. I could tell he was very curious as to what I had planned and more than happy to do anything I wanted- it wasn't often that I was the one who initiated these intimate moments.

I turned my eyes to a smirking Thanatos. He'd turned the lock with his powers and was now patting the empty side of the bed with his large, tanned hand. I tried to push down my nerves springing up by the sudden realisation that I was now in control of how we would be intimate.
Where's some tequila when you need it?
I tried to look as confident as I could as I walked over to him with grace. Thanatos eyes followed my hips like he was watching a tennis match- side, side, sway, sway...
