Walking over to the bar, I place the knife down and glance at my fingers, which are covered in blood. I sniff at it and Nico growls at me.

“Don’t even think about it, living dead girl. You want to be a sexy little vampire? You can taste mine. No one else’s.”

Stepping over to me, he grabs the side of my skirt and unzips it.

“I have a shirt you can change into, but not bottoms, so I don’t want to get blood on it.”

He moves back and I allow my gaze to travel down his body, and I smile when I see his hard cock pressing against his pants. Nico watches me, as he reaches behind his neck and pulls his shirt over his head. Why is that so hot?

I press my thighs closed, and he notices because he doesn’t miss much.

“Is my pussy wet for me already?”

Returning my gaze to his, I admit, “Yes.”

Kicking off his shoes, he doesn’t take his eyes from mine as he undoes his jeans and removes them, before tossing them to the side of the room with the t-shirt.

He places his hand on my face and gently tilts my head back.

“You are fucking it for me, Bella. The most beautiful creature I’ve ever seen. A dark soul that matches mine. Dangerous, yet dainty. Almost everything can be broken, but I don’t think you can be. Believe me, I tried. I’ll never morph into a good man, but fuck, I’ll be good to you. Only you. Like me, you’re a killer. You have taken lives, but far more than that, you kill pain. You take the pain away, and make living not only bearable, but something I look forward to. I have never been afraid of death, but I am now, because I don’t ever want to not feel this with you.”

“Nico,” I gasp.

He slides his hands in my hair, and tilts my head back, and runs his tongue up the length of my throat. Moving my head to the side, he bites my neck hard and growls.

“Mine. Forever.”

“Yours,” I gasp, as he licks and sucks his way all over my neck.

Grabbing my shirt at the sides, he rips it from my body. Taking my bra straps between his fingers, he pulls it down until my breasts are exposed, and he groans.

“So stunning. You take my breath away.”

He hooks his thumbs into either side of my panties, and lowers them to the floor, and I step out of them.

Looking up at me, he has a serious expression on his face.

“I need you to be a good girl, and do exactly as you’re told so you don’t get hurt.”

Running my hand through his hair, I say, “If you kiss me, I’ll do anything you want me to, Nico. There are no limits. There is nothing I won’t do for you.”

He rises to his full height and takes my face in his hands.

“What I want is for you to join me in everything in life. I want you to join my family business with me. I need you by my side in all things.”

“I’m not family.”

He growls and slams his lips to mine, kissing me, biting at my lips, and digging his fingers into my scalp like he simply can’t get enough.

Staring at me with heat, he says, “You are my family. You’re my everything. If the requirement is for you to have the Bonetti name, you’ve got it. I’ll marry you, the second I’m done fucking you.”

I blink fast as I try to make sense of his words, but I’m sure I’m confused, because there’s simply no way.

“You want to marry me? Is that what you’re saying, Nico?”
