“Thank you for bringing me here, sweet girl,” I say, pulling her against my side as we walk back towards the car.
I hold the door open for her, and then realize I still haven’t gotten her anything for her birthday. Maybe she wants to stop now and go shopping.
As we pull out onto the road, she runs her hand over my thigh and sends heat spinning through my entire body all over again.
“Darya, do you want to go shopping? I would love to get you something for your birthday.”
I glance over at her and notice how pink her cheeks have turned.
“Actually, I know exactly what I really want for my birthday,” she says shyly.
“Well, tell me what it is. Anything at all. I will get it for you right now.”
She bites her lower lip.
“I want you to be the one—um—the one who takes my virginity.”
Her words catch me so off guard that I almost swerve us into the pavement. My cock is instantly hard again, and I can’t believe that she just said that.
“Darya, that can’t be all you want?” I ask in shock.
“It is all I want, Stef. It’s what I have wanted for a while already.”
“You want me? You think I am the one?”
My heart is hammering so loudly in my rib cage it feels like it is going to burst from my chest, like a wild bird fluttering to free itself from a cage.
The grin on my face is so massive my cheeks are beginning to hurt.
She teasingly runs her hands over my swollen cock.
“If you want me,” she says in a whisper.
“We are going straight home. I have to give the birthday girl exactly what her heart desires,” I laugh, pressing my foot harder against the accelerator.
I can barely keep it together as we head home, and when we park the car, I practically run to open her door for her. I can’t believe she has very blatantly asked me to be the one.
I have spent the last few days so stressed about the fact that I forced her into this marriage, and she wasn’t even interested in me, but now everything has changed. She told me she has wanted this for a while already, so I have obviously been misreading her along the way.
I am such an idiot. I chuckle and shake my head as I hurry to open the front door.
As soon as we are in the house, I lift her into my arms and kiss her.
She wraps her legs around me as I carry her upstairs towards our bedroom.
Chapter 16 - Darya
Stefano practically skids the car to a stop outside our home and then runs to open my door. The grin on his face is mischievous and delightfully playful. Butterflies rush wildly through my stomach in a fluttering array of nerves as he opens the door.
I am excited but also really terrified.
Stefano is a big man, perhaps ruthless in a lot of ways. He has been with women who have experience, and I am really scared that this is going to hurt.
As much as I am scared, though, I really want to be with him.
Before the door has even closed behind us, Stef lifts me into his arms, wrapping my legs around his waist and carrying me upstairs. He kisses me, tender and gentle. My heart beats wildly, and I tell myself, just let him take control. The first time is going to hurt no matter what. I will just let him do whatever it is he wants to do, and then maybe next time will be better for me.
I don’t expect much pleasure out of my first time.
