“What are you thinking about?”

“Eva,” I lie.

“I won't let her hurt you, Adi. I'm only keeping her around to find out what she knows. As soon as I've done that, I'm going to kill her.”

I nod, and he smiles.

Neither of us believes the other. I doubt we even believe ourselves. Enzo's worried enough to warn me and I'm hiding something.

He hums, and his thumb pulls my lip down.

“Are you lying to me?”

“No.” I double down.

“Are you sure, baby?” Danger flashes through him as Enzo draws closer.

I nod.

He exhales, and my heart skips a beat.

Enzo inhales and drops his head until his lips are so close to mine it hurts to be apart.

“Good girl. I'd hate to punish you for lying to me.”

Enzo's kiss is dominant and rough, taking back the control he'd let slip for a few moments. His tongue flicks against mine and I melt, giving in and giving up. The man can have whatever he wants when his kiss makes me feel like this, and I'll sort the rest of the mess out later or be damned.

Knowing Enzo, I'll be damned.

He lifts me into the air and my legs wrap around his waist. Enzo walks, still kissing me, as his fingers grope my ass and he rubs himself against me.

“Where are we going?” I breathe, breaking our kiss.

“Into the water, baby. You like it there and we need to fuck again. I'll make it feel good.”

DAMNED IF YOU DON'T

ADRIANA

I'm surprised by the water’s warmth as it touches my legs and ass, and I sink into it, relaxing.

“I wouldn't relax too much, baby.”

Enzo pulls me back onto him and I giggle, letting myself fall deeper into my arousal. Despite everything, and maybe in spite of it, I'm feeling playful. Dangerously playful if I'm a good judge of Enzo's mood.

“This will be fun,” he whispers in my ear. “For both of us.”

His lips brush against my earlobe and a shiver rolls down my spine. I’m still sore after everything that happened in Hell. Despite the care Enzo’s provided in the days since.

“You trust me, right?”

I want to say yes, but I’m hesitant. Even now.

“Still unsure then,” Enzo sighs, disappointed. “Let’s work on that.” He bites my ear and I squeal. “You need to trust me enough to obey without question, baby.”

His hand grabs my collar and tugs at it, reminding me of its presence. I’ve grown accustomed to it now and the increased pressure sends a jolt of electricity to my core. My legs tighten around his waist and my clit throbs, begging me to grind against him and find relief.
