So what? I’mhis girlnow?
“So that’s what this is, then? You want to own me?” I spit out viciously.
He recoils at my words, taken aback by my sudden aggression.
But he recovers quickly, his hand still holding my face.
“I don’t want to own you,” he says, his voice low and rough. “I want to protect you.”
“From what? From who?” I challenge him, my eyes boring into his.
“From everything,” he replies, his hand sliding down my neck and trailing over my collarbone.
“From all the dangers out there that you don’t even know exist. From all the people who would hurt you without thinking twice.”
I don’t know how to respond, so I just stand there, my chest rising and falling with my ragged breaths.
“What if I need protection from people like you?” I spit out, my breath coming out in ragged breaths.
Anger, projection - against my father, against Hunter - on this kind, gentle giant wanting to give me a leg up in this world.
“You’re the mafioso, aren’t you?”
I can feel the tension building in the air as he registers my words. The energy between us is palpable as his eyes darken with lust, his full lips curving into a mischievous grin.
He steps closer, pressing his body against mine, and I can feel his hard muscles pressing against my soft curves.
“You’ve got a smart mouth,” he growls, “but you don’t know what you’re talking about.”
He leans in and captures my lips in a fierce kiss, his tongue exploring my mouth as I moan into the kiss.
I wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him closer as he deepens the kiss, his hands exploring the curves of my body.
His fingers trail down my spine, leaving a trail of fire in their wake. I arch my back, pressing myself against him as he pulls away, gasping for air.
“I am the mafia,” he declares, his eyes blazing with intensity.
“And I will protect you with everything I have. But you see, not because you are the woman I fuck, or dream about naked, but because I am the Don. Every single person who works for me will be protected to hell, heavens, and
back. Not because I can but because I need them.
You - I need you. You beat my cousin at your little hacking game, and no matter what you may say or believe, I’m not doing any charity here. If you beat my brightest, you are the brightest. And I want the fucking brightest.”
I listen silently, though my gaze is still focused on his lips. I want him to kiss me already.
“So you mean this,” I ask in earnest.
“You want me to work for you? This isn’t your charity or some ploy to play knight in white armor?”
“That’s right,” he chuckles darkly, his breath hot against my face.
“You catch on quickly, don’t you?” he says, his hand sliding down my body to grip my hip roughly.
“But I don’t want you to work for me, not yet. Right now, all I want is to fuck you.”
I gasp at his crude words, feeling a hot flush spread across my cheeks. But the heat is quickly replaced by desire as he leans in again, capturing my lips in another searing kiss.
His hands roam over my body, pulling me closer as I wrap my legs around his waist. I can feel his hardness pressing against me, and I moan as he grinds against me.
