“So, you eat like a bird? Is that why you’re so slender?”
“Hardly; I just don’t feel like eating right now.”
“What is with the meal? Anna seemed to be displeased too.” He takes my fork and stabs a piece of meat and slides the fork between his sinful mouth. The bite is normal, but my internal reaction is anything but. My pulse doubles and my thighs shake so I clench them together and hold back the subtle moan.
“There’s nothing wrong with it, so you both have lost your appetite being here?” He has the nerve to actually be offended after all that he’s put me through today.
“No. It’s just been a long day,” I answer, sitting down on the bed because if he puts his hands on me, I might cave and end up giving him whatever he wants.
“Don’t lie to me, Lucy,” he growled out that warning, and my pulse ticked up a notch or twelve.
Feeling overwhelmed and confused, I let him have it. “What do you want me to say? That I’ve been kidnapped, stripped, seduced, and threatened, so I’m just not feeling up to eating like crazy.”
“Fine. Let’s go read to Anna and you can go to bed.”
He takes my hand and helps me off the bed before letting go and then heads to the door, holding it open. “Don’t run. It will do you no good.”
“Anna’s waiting for us. Lead the way, Mr. Leone.” He grumbles something under his breath and takes me down a long hall past another set of doors to another set.
“Here we are.” He opens the door to see Anna with three books in her hands. “Whoa, only one tonight.” I hide my giggle behind my hand because she can be a bit eager. I take in her bedroom, and she wasn’t kidding. It looks like a pink palace.
“I know, but I couldn’t decide.” I love her enthusiasm which reminds me of when we first bonded. She struggled with the loss of her parents and the fact that she was below grade level when it came to her academics. The school had continually allowed her to pass because her parents demanded it. Given what I know now, I understand why.
“Let’s start with this one,” I say, taking a book about a fairy princess. Niccolò reads with his deep timber, and my mind goes back to when he had his hands all over me. I’m getting horny just sitting on the edge of her large bed as her scary uncle reads. His eyes look up at me and then he winks.
“Why don’t you try to read?” I ask Anna, attempting to distract myself, and take the edge off.
“Okay.” She starts and Niccolò looks up at me after a minute as Anna struggles with simple words. I move up to the side only to have Niccolò lift me onto his lap.
“Help her, tutor,” he growls in my ear. I help her sound the words out one at a time, and then I feel his mouth on my throat and then my ear. He presses soft kisses that send pleasure down my body, but his hands hold me still. “Be still, cara,” he whispers, nipping on my ear.
I’m trying to concentrate when Anna lets out a yawn. “I think you’ve done well tonight, Anna. How about your uncle finishes the book and tomorrow we can study some while we play?”
“Yay,” she cheers with a sleepy tone.
“Let’s finish the story tomorrow night.” He bends down and kisses her forehead. “Goodnight, sweetling.” We both leave the room and Niccolò takes my hand in his, leading me back to the bedroom.
“Get some sleep, Lucy.” He closes the door and leaves me standing there, confused.
“Fucking asshole,” I grumble. As if sleep is coming to me tonight, I think.
A deep chuckle comes from the other side of the door. Great, he heard me. Well, it’s not if he doesn’t already know what he is and what he’s done to me.
Chapter Five
Niccolò
The next morning I’m working in my office, trying my best to avoid running into Lucy. Last night had been a test of wills and I was nearly going to lose when I finally pulled out my cock and beat it until I nut all over my hand.
I should have fed my dick to her for breakfast, but I’ll wait until she’s done with her period because next time she has my cock, I’m not stopping until I’m buried deep inside of her, shooting my load all over her little womb.
It's already the afternoon when someone knocks on my door. I’m expecting Vittorio any minute, so I say, “Come in.” As expected, it’s him.
“Boss, you wanted to see me?” Vittorio asks, stepping into my office. I had a brief conversation with Dino he let it slip about Vittorio’s conversation with my future wife.
As my main man, I need him to understand a few things before there is a big problem. Lucy will be my other half and needs to be treated as such.
“Yes, close the door.” He does, and then I point to the seat in front of my desk. “Have a seat.”
