Page 48 of His Beautiful Revenge
“Good.” Zulika smiled, her body relaxing. “So, any ideas?”
Orlando stroked his chin, pretending to ponder. “Ghosts on Toast. Ghost Toast. It’s a winner.”
She nodded, pretending to consider it seriously. “Just so happens, they’ve got a special on ghosts at the market.”
Orlando clicked his tongue and gave her the finger pistols. She grinned and refilled his cup. “You are so silly.”
He chuckled. “Always happy to help, ma’am.” He looked around. “Quiet in here today.”
Zulika nodded. “It’s hot outside. Everyone is at the beach.”
Orlando smiled at her. “Zul, we can’t ignore what happened between us. For what it’s worth …I don’t regret the act. I certainly don’t regret it was with you. I just got …”
“Freaked out.” He nodded and she smiled. “Me too. Lando …would it make you feel better if I said it was pretty momentous for me too? Lando …it was my first time.”
For a second he thought he hadn’t heard her right. “Excuse me?”
Zulika flushed red, but she gave a soft laugh. “That’s usually the reaction. I was a virgin, Lando.”
Orlando realized he was gaping at her, then he shut his mouth. “Oh, Zul …”
“It’s okay. I’m glad I waited. I’m glad, even with the circumstances, that it wasyou.”
Orlando hesitated for a moment, then got up and came around the counter. He pulled her into his arms and hugged her. “I don’t know what to say.”
She leaned into him, her face buried in his chest. “Don’t say anything. Let’s just stay like this for a moment.”
In the back room, Norah scribbled a note telling Zulika she was going out to lunch with Giacomo, then she skipped out. Giacomo was just pulling the car up to the curb and smiling. She got in and kissed him hello.
“You taste so good,” she murmured against his lips,,and he laughed.
“Are you hungry,mio caro?”
She grinned, nuzzling his neck. “Not for food, no.”
“Insatiable.”
“You betcha. Take me somewhere and fuck me, Conti.”
Giacomo grinned as he started the car. “You’re horny today,il mio amore?”
“For you, every day.” She took his hand and slid it under her dress, laughing as his eyebrows shot up when he encountered bare flesh.
“Jesus, Norah …” He was grinning widely as he began to caress her clit. She grinned and put her hand over his cock.
“Take me to Baker Beach …you know where …”
She was pretty sure they got there in record time, but still, by the time he parked the car, they were both so worked up that he fucked her there in the back seat of his car, going down on her first hungrily, then slamming his cock so deep into her that she screamed with pleasure.
“God, you make me so hot,Bella,” he growled as he pushed her legs further apart.
They almost got caught twice, reducing them to giggles, but after two orgasms, Norah sighed happily. “I love you, Giacomo Conti. You make we want to do things I’ve never even considered.”
He started the car, his dark curls wild and his face flushed, but he grinned. “Just think of all the things wehaven’tdone yet. I’m thinking of taking you back to my island again—and maybe bringing some new stuff we could have fun with. You could be naked all day, every day. That’s my dream.”
She stroked the hair over his ear as he drove her to a small trattoria for something to eat. “And so could you. That’s my dream. Oh, that reminds me.” She delved into her purse and retrieved the panties she had slipped off earlier. “I can’t go commando while we eat.”
He was still laughing when they walked hand-in-hand into the restaurant.
