He was good at knowing what people wanted to hear, and I knew he wanted to please me. He could have so easily lied to me, but I knew he didn’t. He told me he was going to give me honesty, and even if he didn’t, his eyes were giving everything away. Those golden eyes held such coldness that when there was even a hint of emotion, it was easily visible. At least it was easy for me.
It was enough. No one else needed to see his emotions. He was mine. His emotions were mine. No one could have taken him from me.
Accepting congratulations was the hardest thing. I just wanted to kiss Antonio again, but all I could do was brush up my arm or leg against him. He never moved away from me when I did that, but his quick side glances told me he was very aware of my motives.
Also, it was not simple to ease the tension when I was so turned on by Antonio’s presence. We really did need someone to brighten the day, especially when Gabriele looked at Antonio with the most horrible “I’ll kill you” face. Thankfully Kira helped me by handing out Adrian to him, and I could see how his body relaxed holding his son. My brother was a great brother, a great husband, and a great father.
I felt too teary seeing his happy family. I wanted that for myself as fast as I could. I wanted a baby of my own to cuddle.
When Gabriele and Kira congratulated us, I was relaxed. The worst was done. Well, actually, no, because Roberto had even a worse expression. Seeing two cold men scowled at each other was too weird.
I immediately kissed the little head of their son Leonardo. “Aww, little Leo seems like he wants his father.”
Beatrice bit down her bottom lip to hide her smile. Both Antonio and Roberto looked down at me with furrowed brows, but I only smiled and pat Beatrice’s arm, so she gave Leo to her husband. After she did it, the tension kind of eased, and they left.
I huffed in relief. “Take notes, Buttercup. Mafia men turn soft when you push a baby into their arms.”
Antonio didn’t comment on the nickname, but I heard his soft growl. He was so bad at being irritating because I found it extremely hot. “That doesn’t sound like a fact.”
I rolled my eyes at him. “I have a success rate of a hundred percent, don’t I?”
Weird heat touched his eyes, and he nodded. “You do.” Then his hand softly brushed my hip. “But I have bad news.”
My breath hitched, but I managed to ask, “What is it?”
“Michele doesn’t have a baby to hold.”
I looked up, and my other two brothers, Michele and Gioele, were really next. I wanted to roll my eyes at my older brother, but I couldn’t manage it because of my smile. I knew Antonio was not one for the humor. This was like a great joke for him. It filled me with joy.
I smiled up at my husband as my brothers came. I didn’t even hear what they were saying. I was too marveled at the fact that this gorgeous man was my husband now. He was mine.
But not fully.
I wanted all of him.
When we finally went to our limo to go to the celebration, I was bubbling up with excitement.
Antonio held the door open for me and got in after me. When the door was closed, I couldn’t wait and fling myself to Antonio’s lap. Thankfully the partition was already up.
I kissed his forehead and then his cheek. “You are too charming for an Ice King,” I teased him with a huge grin on my face.
His hands came to my hips, his fingertips brushing up my ass. “I wanted to do something nice for you,” he said with a straight face. I didn’t care about his expression. I was in his arms, and he kissed me in front of everyone like we were in a movie.
I kissed more spots on his face. I didn’t want to leave a patch of skin on his body that was not kissed by me. I wanted all of him. The hardness under my ass was not helping as well. “It was out of a fairy tale, baby,” I said and, this time kissed his lips. When I pulled back, his mouth was slightly curved. Not a real smile but enough for now.
A teasing smile appeared on my face, and I asked, “Are you not uncomfortable? I called you baby.”
One of his hands caressed my ass, and he nibbled my bottom lip. “I still find it very unnecessary and irritating, but it helps that you are kissing me.”
My heart almost ripped open my chest. Maybe it was normal stuff for others, but for Antonio, this was the peak of romance.
I cupped his face and asked with huge eyes, “Really?”
He nodded and, this time, squeezed my ass softly, pushing me to his erection and stealing my breath. “My arousal usually inhibits my need for logic, and that causes me to be more relaxed about certain topics.”
So many thoughts came to my head. I thought about how Kira and Beatrice would react if I told them about this answer. I thought about how it would make another woman upset. Great that I was the only woman here. I was the only person that needed to like his answers, and it only gave me a huge grin, and I kissed his lips again. “You are so weird,” I whispered and continued kissing him.
Antonio pressed me onto his lap and kissed me back. His tongue was playful without being too much, and his lips moved perfectly. So calculated and so magical.
