However. . .this man had me caught up in the eye of his storm. . .and I was starting to realize that I absolutely didn’t want to be free.
A new dish was placed before me—steak, cooked to perfection accompanied by rich sides that added to the indulgence of the evening.
Gianni, ever the attentive new husband, ignored his plate, took my fork, and began feeding me.
Oh my.
Slowly, he carefully cut a piece of steak, placed it on the fork, and brought it to my lips. “You are the first and the last woman I will ever feed on this planet.”
“You’ve never fed another woman?”
“Never.”
“Why not?”
“She wasn’t you.”
Blown away, I accepted the morsel and savored the exquisite flavors that danced on my tongue. But honestly. . .I relished in his attention and care more, feeling utterly cherished and so spoiled.
In fact, I was so overcome by emotion that I grabbed his fork and knife.
Intrigued, he watched me with a wicked grin.
Next, I cut a piece of my steak and offered it to him, feeding him just like he’d done to me, letting him know that apparently, we were going to spoil each other.
A dark groan left him.
And I couldn’t help but let my gaze wander beneath the table, where I caught sight of an unmistakable bulge straining against his designer pants.
Shit.
The size of his erection was unmistakably large, and it sent a thrill through me, making me wonder if it would fit inside my pussy.
Suddenly, one of Gianni’s men approached the table, leaned in, and whispered something into Gianni's ear.
What’s going on?
Gianni’s expression darkened, and then his jaw clenched as he listened some more.
Somebody has pissed him off.
“Damn it. Get them upstairs.” Gianni glared at him.
The man nodded and hurried away.
Gianni turned back my way and gave me a sad smile. “I’m sorry, Queen. We will have to end this perfect moment.”
“Why?”
“Something has come up that I cannot ignore, not even on my wedding night.”
I could tell he was struggling with not losing his shit right at the table. And I knew that whoever had interrupted us, would die in the most painful way.
“Unfortunately, this is a situation that could endanger you if not dealt with immediately.”
“Me?”
“Yes. These are enemies that I’ve been hunting for a while. Men who will destroy everything around me just because. Menwho had planned to hurt you this evening. However, tonight, the hunt ends.”
