Then his other hand moved up my chest and his fingers curled around my neck, and he leaned in close, his mouth only inches from mine.

I could scarcely breathe.

“Fuck. You don’t know what you’re doing to me,” he snarled, and my breath hitched in my throat.

I had an idea, and I didn’t know if I should want it or I shouldn’t, but I did know that whatever happened next was out of my control.

And maybe even out of his.

CHAPTER 6

Sofia

“Bambina,”he growled, and the sound vibrated down into the tips of my toes and right back up again. I drew in a deep breath, trying to rein in what was happening and having absolutely no luck at all.

“Massimo,” I said again softly, his name rolling off my tongue like a chord of music. He leaned in closer to me, his gaze leveling with mine. His hazel eyes had flecks of gold and emerald, like a cup of warm cider on a cold winter’s day, and I lost myself in them before his hand squeezed a bit tighter around my throat.

I gasped, the pressure making my heart pound even faster, the air coming in a little more shallowly than before, and my body thrummed with heated arousal.

His fingers circled over my clit and then they edged backwards. I whimpered as the tips nudged at my entrance, teasing me, but then he pushed in just a little before he stopped.

“Fuck, you’re a virgin,” he growled, and the air left my lungs in a rush.

“Yes,” I somehow managed, and his fingers retreated back to my clit, which was somehow pulsing even harder. His grip on my neck tightened slightly and the edges of my vision went blurry as he played with the needy bundle of nerves between my thighs.

Then he pulled his hand back and slapped my pussy, just hard enough to sting, taking me by surprise. With a yelp, I started, but there was nowhere to run and nowhere to hide, not with him pinning me against the wall like this.

What was happening?

He spanked my pussy again, harder, and a wave of intense pleasure-pain rolled through me. It was almost too much to bear, but somehow, a deep, shameful part of me enjoyed it.

He slapped my pussy several more times, punishing me with the flats of his fingers until my sensitive flesh was burning and for some reason, it only made my clit throb even harder.

I tried to angle my hips away, but his hand around my throat tightened in warning and he spanked my pussy much more firmly three times in quick succession as punishment.

“Please,” I begged.

I didn’t have any clue as to what I was begging for. Did I want him to stop? Did I want more?

I didn’t know, but a part of me didn’t care.

A wave of humiliation washed over me, and I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to escape, trying to ignore the conflicting sensations warring inside me. I shouldn’t be enjoying any of this. This waswrong, right? He shouldn’t be touching me like this, he shouldn’t have taken down my panties and spanked me, and he shouldn’t have his hand between my thighs right now, but here we were.

And then his fingers were on my clit again.

Oh, fuck.

Liquid wildfire surged through my veins, hot and heavy and all too consuming. I tried to fight it, but it felt like I was being steamrolled by pain and pleasure so intense that there was nothing for me to do but take it.

He growled low in his throat, the sound reverberating through his chest, and the primal possessiveness of his gaze made my knees go weak.

He was an alpha, dominant, a man used to getting what he wanted, and at that moment, there was nothing I could do whether I was willing or not.

His slick fingers rubbed my clit a bit more firmly. My knees threatened to buckle beneath me, and he shifted, his body pressing into mine as his hand squeezed around my throat, making sure I couldn’t go anywhere.

My pussy was dripping wet, and his fingers slid against the hard little bundle of nerves, the sensation almost too much to bear and I bit my lip, trying to keep steady and feeling like my entire focus was centered around the pleasure building in my core and how very close I was to breaking.

I tried to hold back one moan after the next, but I failed time and time again, until the entire room was echoing with the sound of my desire as he teased and taunted me with an orgasm just out of reach.
