I watch the tears roll down her face, and something inside me cracks. I need to make them stop. I can’t stand to see her hurting. I jump up and pull her into my arms. She still hasn’t said anything or given me an answer to my question.
“Princess, if you don’t like it, I’ll take you into town tomorrow before the priest gets here and find you another one.”
“No. I love it. Yes, I’ll marry you.” She sobs against my chest.
I slip the ring on her finger and lift her up to deposit her in the tub. I need to get her relaxed, cleaned up, and back inside her tight cunt.
Dropping the robe, I climb in behind her and hold her body to mine. Her head lolls against my shoulder, and I realize how tired my princess is. I let her relax for a bit before I get us in the shower, where I can really clean her up.
I can’t help myself and take her against the wall. The need to fill her womb with my seed overrides everything. When I take her back to our bed, I slide in and hold her close. She wraps around me, and I love the feeling.
All the years I spent in the military and after my parents died, all I wanted was to feel needed and necessary. Vittoria does that with only a look. The moment I saw her, I knew she was mine. But then getting to know her as a person over the year I worked for Dario and Luna showed me she is truly a princess. Mine.
chapter five
Spencer
The next morning, I watch as Mrs. Revello cooks breakfast for all of us while Mrs. Carbone helps her. In the year that I worked for Dario, whenever we ate at the Revello estate, I never saw Vittoria’s mom do kitchen work. She never stepped foot in the kitchen. So I’m not surprised when Vittoria comes out of our room in a pair of leggings and one of my shirts shocked to see her mother in the kitchen.
“Mama?” she says softly, and my heart clenches tight for her. I’m hoping that after we can convince her father to give up on this farce, Mrs. Carbone can heal too.
As Vittoria passes me, I pull her to me and she blushes as she smiles. Her small body presses into mine, and I want to go back to our room and have her again. I woke during the night to her stroking my cock. I rolled her to her back and took her nice and slow. Seeing her hand slide along my chest with her ring on almost had me coming then and gets me hard now.
“Morning, princess.” I kiss her lips deep. When she pulls away, her blush matches the color of my shirt. She smiles, and I lean in to lick her dimple. When she turns, I swat her arse and she squeals.
“Spencer.”
“What, princess?” I laugh as my mobile rings on the counter. “Yes,” I answer.
“No priest. Vittoria’s father has him under surveillance. He knows your plan.” I get by way of greeting from Dario. “I told my men to leave the area and make sure they weren’t followed. I’ll be there shortly.”
“Bloody hell,” I growl as I hang up. All three women look at me. “Change of plans, princess. Dario and Luna will be here shortly.”
Not even twenty minutes later, they show up and we all sit down around the table for a late brunch. Dario and I explain that there won’t be a wedding today. We’ll just have to see how long the priest is unavailable. I tried to get the family to agree to another priest, but Mrs. Carbone and her mama want Vittoria to get married by the family priest.
After breakfast, Dario and I move to my office to work out how we are going to proceed. Marrying Vittoria is not only key for me but also to protect her from Mustafa. When we walk out, I see both Vittoria and Luna sitting in the family room. Vittoria leans over and rubs Luna’s blossoming abdomen where she is carrying Dario’s son. A pang hits my heart. I worry that even if I get her pregnant, Mustafa will get to her. My contacts in the city have told me that he is offering not only a reward but has put a price on my head to get her back.
“We’ll do everything we can to protect her,” Dario says next to me. “I’m meeting with Dante and some of the others to see what we can do. This is grounds for war against Carbone. Theboard wants him removed for his transgressions. We have a vote after the holiday.”
Christmas is just under two weeks away. “We won’t be able to come to any of the family festivities. I have to keep her safe, and right now that’s right here.”
“Then we’ll be with you.”
“I can’t ask you to keep Luna from her family too.”
“They’ll come here. It’s our year to host. I’m sure we can sneak you and the ladies onto the property.”
Vittoria
“He wants me to get pregnant,” I confess to Luna, who smiles as she watches me rub her stomach.
“He would want that. He knows the more he ties you to him, the more Mustafa can’t claim you. I don’t understand why your mama is insisting on this priest. Dario and I can get one from Venice to marry you.”
“She said she wanted the priest who married her and Father to be there for my wedding. I just want to marry Spencer. I don’t care about all that stuff, but she wants it all.”
I watch my mother as she moves around the kitchen withNonna.They’re working on preparing our evening meal. She flutters around like a butterfly, not staying in one place. For a moment I’m happy to see her doing more, but then it all fades and I wonder if she’s delaying for a reason.
As if Luna can read my mind, she asks me, “Did you make sure that she’s not in contact with your papà?” I look at her and then back to my mother.
