She was all out laughing now.
“My dad and brother kept chuckling at me,” I informed her. “They knew what was happening, the asswipes.”
She let out a cute little snort. “I’m sorry, Romeo. I didn’t realize—”
“No, you didn’t,” I cut her off. “You didn’t know how you were affecting me. So for the next meal, keep it down, ok? I mean it could seriously hurt me to have blue balls all the way through one of Zia’s six-course meals.”
Howling with laughter now, Julianna fell down on her side.
I slowly shook my head and went on, “Well, I’m glad you find it amusing.” I shrugged. “Never happened to me before, ya know? I never once got so hot for a woman in public that I couldn’t control myalter ego, so to speak. Except for when I was like sixteen, maybe?” I paused as I remembered the event. “Ok, I admit that it did happen once before. But in defense of that, it had been an entire team of cheerleaders, wearing teeny tiny skirts and they kept bending over. Repeatedly, I might add. All while I sat right behind them. Like up close and personal to sweet sixteen butts! I suffered with the most painful erection that lasted for an entire fucking basketball game.”
With her laughter out of control, Julianna now rolled around on the mattress. “S-stooop! My side hurts…”
“Yeah, so now you know how it feels, don't ya?” I finally laughed with her as I grabbed her up and wrapped my arms around her.
Laughter rippled through her body then she finally settled down and let out a huge breath.
We laid there together close and warm, skin to skin as we just enjoyed the companionable silence for a bit.
“Basically though,” I finally broke the quiet. “You admire my skills and I worship your body. So we are perfect for each other. I also think I’m addicted to the flavor of you.”
“And I think I’m addicted to your scent,” she confessed.
I didn’t know about this as I cocked my head at her and asked, “Is that so?”
Nodding, she admitted, “I would sneak a whiff of you whenever you weren’t looking.”
I grinned. “My cousin Francie gifted me that cologne last Christmas.”
Julianna smiled. “I think it’s not as much the cologne as it is your scent mixed with it.” She scooted closer and kissed me softly then whispered to my lips, “I’m so glad you told me how you felt at dinner. I really think you were right. We could be a forever deal.” She sighed happily and laid her head on my chest.
Feeling more supreme and more of a winner than with any case I had ever won, I held her in my arms as she fell asleep. It was early eve but it had been a helluva long day for us both. I figured we could sleep for a while and then I intended tohaveher all over again. Damn, I almost lost my mind while making love to her earlier tonight. I’d barely held myself in control. I’d never had to fight myself to slow down and be more gentle with a woman. I never had to hold myself back before either. Julianna spurred my inner beast on. I let out a breath of relief over the fact that I had managed to keep it to some semblance of sane. It surprised me when I realized she’d almost driven me to the edge.
As I laid there in her bed, I wondered what our next move should be. Personally. Should I take her on dates and keep itgradual? Or should I just announce it to my family and then just move her into my room? Smiling to myself, I liked that one. I would still take her out, shower her with flowers, surprises and fun dates. Otherwise, I wanted to keep her close. A person may only get one chance at real love. Yes, I felt like this was real.
I didn’t care what anyone thought about it either. It wasn’t to be an affair or just an office romance. I intended to go all the way with this woman. At least, Dante and my father seemed supportive of it. Hell, Zia predicted it and her support meant the most in my life. My other brothers could lump it. With the exception of Gio or Legend as he called himself now…his opinion mattered.
Was it crazy that I would easily marry this woman tomorrow if she wanted? I would quit working for my father’s company if she wanted that. Yes, maybe but I learned something recently. I’ve had money and success in my life. But I never had love…not like this. Nothing mattered but being with Julianna. It sounded insane but after I tasted her and had her? I never wanted to let her go.
I snoozed for a long while. I didn’t know how long, then I finally opened my eyes to see it was actually morning. Wow, did I sleep for that long? I felt her warmth right up on top of me, her head on my chest.
I know I should let her sleep some more, but I did want to taste her on my tongue again. Selfish much, Romeo? Lowering myself down along her body, I gently spread her legs and moaned quietly asI licked a path up her slit.
“Romeo…” She whispered sleepily as she automatically spread her legs wider.
“That’s my girl,” I whispered to her silky folds then continued to deliver slow, long, licks. With a craving like I’dnever remembered feeling spurring me on, I tasted her cream on my tongue and circled her clit to finally delve inside.
“Oohhhh…” Her hips came up as she buried her fingers in my hair and closed her thighs around my head.
I dove in, plunging into her tightness with my stiff tongue, enjoying her sweet juices. I swear she had the sweetest center I’d ever tasted. I devoured her until she was tugging at my hair and pushing herself up against my face. Finally, she came and I enjoyed the flavor of her fully.
With a huge sigh of satisfaction, her legs fell open.
Taking total advantage, I smoothly slid my body up, eased inside her and experienced her tightness the way nature intended. “I love having you like this.”
Julianna couldn’t seem to speak as her lips were open and her eyes were dark with desire.
When I drove home, she arched her body in response.
