Page 147 of Kissing the Villain

“I know, baby. Trust me. Please.”

Her lips brushed mine. “Every time I trust you, I end up getting hurt.”

“This time is different.”

She moved her hand to the back of my neck, her fingers trailing along my skin.

“I know you hate having Marcello watch over you, but it’s for your protection. I can’t lose you, too. Marry me, Drea.”

“Luca,” she whispered.

“If something happens to me, my family will care for you.”

“I need more, Luca. And you can’t give it to me.”

“Just give me more time.”

She drew in a breath between her teeth. “I’ve given you ten years of my life. What have I gotten in return?”

“Agree to marry me, and I’ll give you everything you want.”

Threading my fingers through her hair, I slipped my tongue into her mouth as she gripped the back of my neck, crushing my lips with hers. With each flick of our tongues, the kisses were more intense, more impatient. We clawed at each other’s clothing, all hands and tongues doing the talking.

I was better at showing her how I felt than using my words. My father had taught me a long time ago that actions speak louder.

“Luca,” she muttered. “Kali will worry if I don’t get back soon. She already thinks something’s going to happen to me.”

I slid my hand up her stomach and over her breasts, feeling her hard nipples over the fabric of her thin shirt. “Just a few more minutes, baby. I need to feel you.”

She melted into my touch as I pinched her nipple between my fingers, leaving a trail of kisses along her neck. Sucking her bottom lip into my mouth, I tugged on it hard, earning a few moans in response.

I lifted her leg, wrapped it around my back, and shoved her linen shorts and panties to the side. My tongue tangled with hers, and she moaned as I pushed one finger inside her wetness, then another. She was so wet, so tight, and with each movement of my fingers, her body trembled.

Burying her face against my neck, she gripped my arms for support as I broke through her inner walls and rolled mythumb over her clit. It didn’t take long before she was groaning my name, her orgasm ripping through her as she came on my fingers.

She gasped for breath and whispered, “You’re the most confusing man I have ever met.”

“Other men would bore you.” I slid my fingers out of her pussy and brought them to my mouth to suck her juices from them. “Tonight, I have a surprise for you.”

She gripped my tie, feeling the silk between her fingers.

“What kind of surprise?”

“A date.”

“You’ve never taken me on a date.”

“I never had a wife before.”

“You don’t even have a fiancée.”

“You’ll say yes. I’m not worried.”

She tugged on my tie. “So confident.”

“Always.”

Our perfect moment ended with my cell phone ringing.
