She looked surprised, "When?"
"Tonight. You will be accompanied of course."
She threw back her head and laughed sarcastically. "Send as many bodyguards as you want. At least I'll be away from here… and from you."
"Now I think it's you who misunderstands. I will be going with you. Tonight, dinner, 7 o'clock."
The stunned look on her face told me I had caught her off guard.
Good!
"Why you?"
"Because I don't trust anyone else."
"Not even Atlas?"
I hesitated, thinking about Atlas's whereabouts tonight and Logan’s debt. He was a hard ass, and I should have told Atlas to break both his legs.
"He's otherwise… engaged elsewhere."
She nodded hesitantly, "Maybe I'll go another night. I don't have anything to wear anyway?"
"Who said you had to wear anything?" I whispered into her ear. "7 o'clock. Be ready."
I grinned at her shocked expression before I let her go and strode back inside without another word, leaving her to stare after me. I was aware my cock was half erect and I hoped she hadn't noticed. Once inside I took a deep breath, trying to control the blood coursing through me. Somehow, she had this control over me, and I couldn't control how my body was reacting. It was all I could do to not throw her against the wall and have my way with her.
Maybe tonight was not such a good idea….
My breath hitched in my throat as she walked down the stairs and stood before me. The golden lace dress fitted her body perfectly and her hair had been styled beautifully, cascading down one shoulder. I was lost for words as I drank in the sight of her, and it was in that moment, that I finally admitted to myself that there was more to my feelings than just a physical attraction. I wanted to be near her, protect her. I wanted her to be mine.
I smiled as I caught her examining me from head to toe with a hint of a smile on her face.
I cocked my head at her. "Like what you see?"
She shrugged, trying to look disinterested. "You'll do."
Is she flirting with me?
"Thank you for the dress, and the hair and makeup stylists, but we’re a bit overdressed for dinner, aren't we?"
"Not at all, but if you're worried about that, we can always take something off." My mouth twitched as I tried to suppress a grin at her sarcastic, You wish, glare she threw my way.
"Here, this is for you." I stepped forward and carefully slid the hair pin into her hair with the red carnation arrangement.
She glanced in the entryway mirror, smiling brilliantly.
My god she looked beautiful.
"Thank you, Luca." She began to walk towards the front door, revealing her bare back and curvy ass that swayed with every step, just begging to be touched. She looked back over her shoulder, "You coming?"
I grinned, shaking my head.
Easy tiger. The night has only just begun. Control yourself.
As I stepped out into the cool night air, I signaled to the guards to follow before sliding behind the wheel of my black Maserati.
Although I tried not to look at her for most of the trip, the small glimpses I did get, had my heart swelling and my dick kicking in my pants. No one had warned me that Mateo Rivera's daughter was a rare beauty. Probably no one actually knew as she kept entirely out of her father's limelight as much as possible. In fact, I was hoping that no one would recognize her tonight either. I was glad the stylist had done as requested, and put on lots of dark eyeshadow to help hide her appearance.
