Page 68 of Enzo DeLuca

Her eyes fluttered open. Their gazes connected. Within her beautiful brown depths, he saw his future. It wasn’t a dark abyss. There was light. There was happiness. There was Eve. Two words were on the tip of his tongue. Two words he was dangerously close to uttering. Would she even know what they meant if he said them?

Maybe. Maybe not. He couldn’t risk saying them and scaring her or making her skittish again. To avoid that, he kept them to himself for now. One day, he’d say them to her. And one day, she’d reply with those same words. For now, he whispered them over and over in his head.

‘Ti amo. Ti amo.’

I love you. I love you.

Eve groaned and leaned forward. Her lips pressed against his. It wasn’t long before her tongue was dancing with his, caressing, sucking, teasing. Her fingers threaded through his hair. Fisting his hair, she pulled his head back, abruptly wrenching his mouth away from the kiss. Before he could protest, she kissed his cheek, then his jawline.

His woman placed kisses along his neck and shoulder as she held his head back. Enzo smiled and stared up at the ceiling, surprised by her actions. This was a first for him, both having his head pulled back that way and having someone kiss his body that way. He couldn’t decide whether he liked it or fucking loved it.

With each kiss, the rhythm of their lovemaking changed. Her tongue trailed over his neck. Enzo flinched when she bit him. Her chuckle filled the air. Then she kissed the spot she’d just bitten. Enzo was pretty sure he was close to ripping open the fabric of the armrest. Her movements switched from a gentle ballad to something more upbeat.

Her hips moved faster as she tongued and kissed his neck. Her lips reached his earlobe, where she gently bit him, causing his entire body to jerk. Again, her giggles filled the air. His little treasure didn’t realize how close he was to losing his fragile grip on control. Her lovemaking was the sweetest torture.

But a man could only take so much. Her hips moved faster as she lowered his head to claim his lips in another kiss. This one was fiery and full of passion. Enzo deepened the kiss, barely resisting the urge to thrust into her. Since he couldn’t thrust his cock between her pussy lips, he pushed his tongue between a different set of lips.

His mate groaned against him as her body shuddered. Her heat clenched him tighter. Enzo couldn’t hold in his groan. His muscles tensed as he struggled to obey her command, as he struggled to let her remain in charge. Skin slapped against skin as she rode him faster. The pleasure was so damn intense that it had his toes curling into the carpet.

He was a man, a damn Deluca. His toes weren’t supposed to curl. He damn sure wasn’t supposed to be finding it hard to breathe. One of her hands released his hair and slid down his body. Her thumb grazed his nipple, causing his body to jerk. Usually, he was the one causing those types of reactions. Not the other way around. What type of magic was she weaving over him?

“Eve,” he groaned, embarrassed and aroused beyond belief.

She kissed his earlobe before caressing his nipple again.

Then she whispered in his ear, “Do you want me to stop?”

He gritted his teeth as she rolled his hardened nipple between her forefinger and thumb. His body had never felt this way before. This woman was taking his body down paths it had never walked before. He was supposed to be the one doing that to her. His stomach muscles clenched when she rubbed his nipple again.

“Say the word, and I’ll stop,” she whispered.

He wanted to say the word before he embarrassed himself and came before she did. But he couldn’t say the word because this shit felt too good. She lifted her hand from his chest.

“Okay, I’ll stop,” she whispered.

“Don’t,” Enzo groaned.

Her hand tightened in his hair.

“Don’t what?” she asked.

Her sexy ass knew what he was talking about. Being that she was petty as hell, she was going to make him say it. If he clenched his jaw any tighter, his teeth would crack.

“Don’t what?” she asked again, returning her finger to his nipple but just pressing it there. “Don’t make me repeat myself, Enzo,” she whispered.

Oh, he was going to make her pay for that. That would come later. For now, she owned him. Enzo took a deep breath.

He exhaled in a rush and said, “Don’t stop.”

“I can’t hear you. What was that?”

“Damn it. Don’t stop, Eve.”

“As you wish,” she replied.

He could hear the smile in her voice as she flicked his nipple and continued to ride him. The speed of her movements increased. She rode him fast and hard as her mouth teased and nibbled at his ear lobe. Enzo’s breath was coming in gasps. He was close to losing his damn mind. He was trying his best not to come yet, all while trying to obey her command and not shove into her heat. She ground her body against him.

“Ahh, Eve. Fuck.”
