My nipples pebble, and my legs spread of their own whorish volition.
“You could?”
“Mm, minaccia, I could.”
“I told you, I’m not… I can’t… It was just the once.” My words stutter out as he works his hand over my pussy through the fabric of my panties.
“Well, that’s the thing about one-night stands. You can have the person more than one time, as long as it’s the same night.”
“What?” I ask, confused solely because of his hands on my body and his breath tickling my neck.
“Mhm, and it’s not yet midnight, minaccia. It’s still today. It won’t count.”
It won’t count.Even as I tell myself his contrived bullshit, that it could be a loophole to my rules, my brain is shaking its proverbial head at me.
I’m buckling too quickly for him.
No one’s ever had this effect on me.
“Not yet midnight,” I repeat, turning my face into his and wishing to all that’s holy that he’d eat up the space and kiss me.
“Do you want me to take your worries away, minaccia?”
That fucking word.
I’d asked Slate what it meant, and he laughed at me before telling me it meantmenace.
Telling myself he’s as annoyed with this attraction between us as I am spurs me forward. I nod.
“Take it away,” I whisper, leaning into his lips.
He pulls back a pinch, unbuckling me and then unbuckling himself.
“Go to the bathroom and wait for me. I’ll be there in five minutes.”
Five minutes?!
Even as my mind and body get annoyed with his commanding us around like his toy, I’m on my feet and moving before I can think twice about it.
Not one Ricci man registers my leaving the room, and I’m waiting for him before I think about what I’m doing.
If I’m not careful, Dante Ricci will ruin my perfectly contrived outer shell that keeps me protected, I'm not sure that isn't the entire game that he's playing.
So, I need to be vigilant.
But when he steps through the door, actively rolling up his sleeves to show his tattoos, I step into him, dropping all common sense from the plane to the world below as we barrel through the skies, enforcer and his prey locked in a battle of wills.
“On your knees, minaccia. I want to see that perfect pout of yours locked around my cock.”
Yeah, I’m fucked.
CHAPTER FIVE
DANTE
The look in her eyes as she hits her knees and works me out of my pants is fiendish. It would have me doing her bidding in a flash if she were to demand something of me. I passed Brynne earlier today as I left Alyssa’s room, and she threatened me. She told me not to touch her friend again if my intentions were impure, and I promised her I wouldn’t hurt Alyssa. But with her on her knees, her hand working down my shaft as she prepares to suck me deep into that beautiful, sassy mouth of hers, I can’t promise thatallmy intentions are pure.
“Go on, minaccia, suck. Then, I’ll take all those pesky fears of yours away. Better hurry; if the clock strikes midnight before you make me come, you won’t get what you were promised.”
