Desired Too

by Lessly, S. K.

  “I’m trying, except I can’t stop seeing...”

  Angel turned my face toward his and lightly kissed my lips. I kissed him back desperately, trying to take my mind off seeing Tiko’s brains going everywhere.

  A beep behind us caused us to break apart. I started driving through the light, turning on the service road to 95. Angel started kissing my neck, and I squirmed in my seat.

  “Angel, don’t…”

  He moved his lips up to my ear, but his right hand, the one that was once against my face, was traveling down between my breasts past my stomach to…

  “Let me take your mind off everything, even for just a little while,” he said softly just before he plunged his fingers down my pants.

  A warming sensation suddenly started to cascade through me. I didn’t know what to do. Half of me knew I should be mourning right now. I should be asking him how he’s planning to keep us safe, to keep himself safe, but I couldn’t concentrate on anything, except the sensation he was bringing to my body.

  Angel brought his left hand up into my hair, giving himself autonomy over my body. He moved my head around as he continued to suck, lick and kiss my neck. A moan softly escaped my lips as I let everything go and allowed him to take me far far away from this place.

  I started to pull over, but Angel said softly. “Just concentrate on driving. I’ll concentrate on everything else.”

  “How can I concentrate when you’re… Ohh myyy...”

  I tried my best to stay focused on the road in front of me. The highway wasn’t crowded. However, I still moved to the slow lane and continued to do the speed limit. The only time I swerved was exactly when I peeked.

  As my heartrate started to slow, I smiled. “That was so…” I began but ended up choking on my words when Angel moved his lips to my ear.

  “I’m not done.”

  I looked at him and found his gray eyes set, determined and burning.

  “Put the car on cruise control.”

  “Put the car on cruise control?”

  He chuckled and kissed me lightly behind my ear. “Yes, baby, cruise control.”

  I obeyed and moved my foot off the gas. I continued to steer waiting for him to tell me what he was doing.

  I didn’t have to wait too long.

  He pulled his right hand from my pants, and I felt and heard him release my seatbelt.

  He pushed down my sweatshirt, revealing my bare breast and began sucking it.

  Goodness, I could feel my eyes starting to roll in the back of my head.

  “Angel, what are you…” I started to ask, but I couldn’t get the rest of the words out of my mouth.

  Angel started tugging on my pants. “Lift.”

  “Lift?”

  He didn’t chuckle this time. He simply started pulling down my pants, and I had no choice but to lift up.

  “Do you mind telling me what you’re doing?” I asked him as he leaned over me, pulling my pants down farther.

  Angel probed on the side of my chair until he found what he wanted and he looked at me as it moved back slightly.

  “What are you doing?” I asked again, trying my best to still my erratic breathing.

  I knew Angel could see my panic, but all he did was grin at me.

  “I’m about to indulge in my favorite place on earth.”

  “You’re about to indulge in…”

  Yes, okay, I sounded like a broken record, but I couldn’t help it. My emotions were all over the place. I was out of control and as he pushed my legs open and swept his tongue along my swollen bud, I realized that’s exactly how he wanted me to be.

  He kissed my drenched lips and said against me, “Yes, my favorite place on earth, your pussy.”

  This time, as he sucked my clit, my eyes did roll in the back of my head.

  I tried to keep both my hands on the wheel, but I couldn’t. I threaded my right hand through his hair and opened my legs as wide as I could as the most unbelievable sensation started to take over. This was dangerous, I knew. I was losing it, and I closed my eyes at least three times as I drove, but there was no way I was telling him to stop. If he stopped right now, I would kill him myself.

  Angel, with his seat belt off, was positioned weird, and I can’t really explain it, but I’ll tell you that one of his knees was on the floor of the truck and the other sort of positioned on his seat. He was stretched over the console with one hand on the floor between my legs, bracing himself. He had his other hand on the console next to me. All I could do to make this easier for him, because that’s the kind of woman I am, was spread as wide as I could and slightly tilt my hips toward him.

  Now, I was actually on the dang blasted moon. Seeing the back of this man’s head between my legs bringing me to one of the most intense, exhilarating and mind-blowing orgasms of my life had my mind, body and soul professing my life to him.

  I couldn’t repeat half of the things I was telling him as he kept sucking and licking and sucking me. I was trying not to kill us but at the same time, I was losing myself in the touch of his tongue, and in the Italian he was whispering to me.

  Oh, the hell with this shit….

  I didn’t know how far down 95 we were, if I had missed my exit or not; I just knew I couldn’t take this shit any longer. I wanted him.

  I pulled over on the shoulder of the highway. It was as large as a truck rest stop with loads of trees and shadows for me to hide in, so I headed for a spot farthest away from the highway.

  Angel sat up just as I pulled off and he looked around, then at me and grinned.

  Yeah, I have something for that smug grin of yours.

  I threw the truck in park, kicked one of my shoes off, struggled one leg from my jogging pants and lunged for him in the passenger seat.

  My body was on fire!

  I gripped his shirt, then ripped it open, not caring about the buttons that flew everywhere. His smirk grew as he gripped my hair tight and pulled me to his glistening lips.

  I kissed his lips, sucked his tongue and did my best not to rip his pants clear off his body.

  I did manage to settle my hands and undo his belt buckle, but as I pulled down the zipper, I started feeling anxious. I couldn’t wait to get him inside me. I couldn’t wait for him to fill me.

  We both moaned as he sunk deep within me. We paused for a second and just watched each other. My patience had disappeared about five miles back. I found the lever on the side of the chair and pushed it so he would fall slowly back. I didn’t think of how uncomfortable my knees were brushing up against the door and the console. I didn’t think of anyone pulling up next to us, revealing what we were doing. I didn’t care if a passersby heard me scream his name. Hell, I didn’t care if the world ended around us. As sweat poured from us both, this moment was all that mattered. Nothing else mattered, but the grip he had on my waist and the love in his eyes as I rode the fuck out of my man.

  “I love you!” he exhaled softly as we came down from his first and my third intense orgasm.

  I smiled as he touched both his hands to the sides of my face. He pushed back my sweat soaked hair from my face.

  “I’ve loved you from the moment we met. I tried not to fall for you, but I couldn’t help it. It was that beautiful smile of yours that got me, it was this body, your confidence, your strength, your heart, how you took to life.” He caressed my lips with his thumb and smiled. “I even love this mouth of yours.”

  I laughed softly.

  “I love everything about you, Raquel Waters. You’re sexy, you’re beautiful, you drive me in-fucking-sane, but I know I will never be able to live without you.”

  He brought my face to him and he kissed me lightly, once and then twice before he dipped his tongue in my mouth. I accepted him greedily, desiring for him to never stop holding me, never stop wanting me and, most of all, never stop loving me.

  He pulled back, but kept me close to him. “I will protect you with my life. I will lay down my life for you without hesitation. I will also destroy
anyone that hurts you.”

  “Angel…” I whispered as he started to blur in front of me.

  “No, mi amore, you’re my life,” he said sternly, then smirked slightly. “I would do anything for you, do you understand that?”

  I looked into his dead set eyes, then nodded, “I know that you will.” I kissed him, then added, “I love you too!”

  He grinned, then smacked my ass. “You will have my babies.”

  I laughed and shook my head. “Will I?”

  He nodded. “Yes, I say about four or five.”

  “You are crazy, do you know that?”

  His smile broadened, “Yes, I do. I also know you will not deny me.”

  “Oh, I won’t?”

  He shook his head. “No, you won’t. You will become my wife, and not long after that, you’ll be barefoot and pregnant until I run out of sperm to fill in you.”

  I laughed. I couldn’t help it.

  “Wow, Leo, that …um… was the sexiest, most romantic proposal I have ever heard in my life. How could I refuse?”

  I never dreamed this would happen. I mean, I dreamed Angel would propose to me all the time. What I didn’t dream about was him proposing to me with his hard penis inside me as we sat on the side of 95 in a sex-steamed truck.

  Angel, taking my silence to mean something else entirely, gripped my hair in one hand and pulled me closer to him.

  I brought my hands in his hair and started moving my hips against him. I lifted my hips from his, then slid back down his shaft, feeling him grow with each movement I made.

  “Be with me always, Raquel.”

  The heat between us intensified as we moved our hips. I took a deep breath, as if I was coming to grips with reality. There was no way I could live without him. There was no place I’d rather be than with him.

  My decision made, I kissed him to seal the deal, then whispered just above his lips. “I’m yours always and forever.”

  Chapter Twenty-Four

  Angel

  We finally pulled up to Raquel’s father’s house, after risking yet another bump and grind fest, this time in the back of the truck with the seats down. I threw the truck in park and looked up at the two-story, four thousand square foot home. I’d been thinking about turning us around for the last fifteen minutes. I just didn’t feel confident in her security here. What happened at my apartment was a rare occurrence. I thought no one in their right mind would attack me at my home or double cross me. Yet, it happened, twice.

  I looked over at a sleeping Raquel and just watched her.

  I had meant every word I said to her. She was everything to me, and I would stop at nothing to make sure she stayed safe. I hoped she understood that, but I knew she wouldn’t understand the depths in which I would take in order to keep my word.

  I could feel all the anger and rage that I put aside earlier starting to awake in me. I could feel myself getting ready. Tonight would be a busy night for me. I felt a grin climb on the side of my face with the anticipation of what was to come. I could actually feel the goose bumps!

  I searched the darkness around the house, sensing something unsteady in the air, when I felt my phone vibrate. I pulled it out and looked at the screen. I didn’t recognize the number, but I answered anyway.

  “Who is this?”

  There was a pause on the other end, then I heard a somewhat familiar voice.

  “This is Mason West. Are you familiar with the name?”

  I looked over at Raquel before I answered. “Yes, I am. How did you get this number, and what do you want?”

  “We both want the same thing, to keep Raquel safe from your shit.”

  I started to frown as I felt that rage of mine coming through. “No, you must be mistaken.”

  “Calm down, Leonetti. I’m happily married with a wife of my own and four kids.”

  “So why are you in my business then?”

  I heard him sigh, then he said, “I’m in your business because Raquel is my wife’s business, and I’m sure you can relate to being with a woman who is stubborn and bullheaded as all hell.”

  I snorted. “Sounds like you can’t control your woman.”

  Mason ignored the comment and added, “She told me, under no uncertain terms, if anything were to happen to her friend I would pay dearly. Now, I don’t make it a habit going against that woman, so I’m doing what I’m told. Look, let’s cut the shit; your brother is planning on pinning you against Ducci.”

  I snickered. “Tell me some shit I don’t know.”

  “Oh okay. How about this then? Ducci thinks you assaulted his daughter the other night.”

  “What?” I blurted too loudly as Raquel stirred and her eyes fell on me.

  “Yeah, from what I found out, he got a picture from your brother showing his only daughter with red welts around her neck. Eddie told him that you did it in a fit of rage when she broke it off with you. Ducci has taken this act as a direct and personal hit on himself and he’s waging war against you. That hit earlier today is supposed to only be the beginning.”

  I closed my eyes, feeling the anger in me grow more and more.

  “When did this happen?”

  “Yesterday.”

  “And how do you know this?”

  “I have my sources. Take a look out of the front of your truck.”

  I did and I saw high beams from a car across the street flash on and off.

  “That’s me and a couple of my guys. Raquel will be safe for as long as you need to go and handle your family dispute.”

  I looked back at Raquel, who was wide awake now and looking pensive. She was probably getting a bad vibe from me as I know there was no mistaking how I was feeling right now. On the other hand, it could’ve been when I reached in the console for my Glock 17s and a SIG P228. She started looking around when I placed it on her lap.

  I took her hand in mine and brought it to my lips to calm her slightly.

  “What assurances do I have that you will keep your word?” I asked Mason.

  “Get out of the car and meet me half way. I’ll give you all the assurances you need.”

  I nodded imperceptibly and hung up my phone.

  “What’s wrong?” she asked.

  I kissed her hand again. “I’ll be right back. Stay in the car until I say it’s okay to come out.”

  Before she could protest, I was out of the car and heading across the street. I saw the car door where the high beams came from open and out came a tall man, built with blonde hair. I recognized him from some of the MMA fights I caught on television, and from the bar Raquel liked to go to. Two men followed close behind him.

  Mason stretched his hand out to me when he got close and I took it.

  “I figured this would go easier if we were face to face, so you could see my eyes.”

  He was right of course, but I didn’t let on.

  I asked him. “How did you know we would come here?”

  He shrugged. “It was either here or your parent’s home, and I have some guys of mine there too just in case.

  I narrowed my eyes. “Raquel never mentioned what you did for a living. Well, she said you were a fighter and a businessman, but what kind of business has hired security helping you to this extent?”

  “Let’s just say I’m not the average fighter and businessman. I’m sure I don’t have to give you my resume and bio. If you are anything like me, you have already done your homework on me.”

  Again, I didn’t reply. He was right, of course. I knew a lot about the man. It didn’t matter, though. I would not jeopardize Raquel to anyone that I didn’t know.

  “Mace, what are you doing here?” I closed my eyes and groaned as I heard her voice behind me.

  I turned. “What part of stay in the car don’t you understand?”

  Raquel put her hands on her hips. “I’m not a dog, Leo. You can’t just tell me to sit and stay. Besides, I want to know what’s going on.”

  I started to say something, but stopped. I turned back to Maso
n and saw the smirk on his face. I knew it was coming. He didn’t have to say anything at all, but I knew what he was thinking; Control, huh?

  Raquel pushed me out of the way and stood in front of Mason. “What are you doing here, Mason?”

  Mason’s smirk left his face and he looked solemnly at Raquel. “I heard what happened, and I know you wouldn’t have called me, so I took it upon myself to lend a hand.”

  I scoffed, “I thought you just said your wife sent you.”

  Mason gave me an aggravated look, and I just met his with one of my own.

  Raquel, probably feeling the thick testosterone in the air, cleared her throat.

  “Thanks, Mace. That’s sweet of you to do that.”

  She smiled at him and he smiled back, a little too big for my taste.

  Getting a strange feeling of something, I didn’t want to say aloud, I pulled Raquel aside. I caressed her arms, trying to soothe her, but actually, I was soothing myself or marking my territory, whichever way you want to look at it.

  “Listen, I’m starting to have second thoughts about you being here.”

  Raquel rolled her eyes. “Come on. After what we just talked about, you can’t be jealous.”

  I shook my head, trying my best to convince her and myself that jealousy had nothing to do with this. “You know for a fact there’s no way I could be jealous of him. I would just feel better if you were at my parents’ home. There’s more bodies there, men that I trust and have known for years.

  “Yeah, but you’ve known Stretch and Adriano for years too.”

  I started to reply, but I stopped. She was right. There were no assurances. I just felt better for some reason, that’s all.

  Raquel, however, sighed deeply. She stretched up and kissed me. “How about I go up there, say hello to my father and brother, talk with them for a few, then head to your father’s house?”

  I thought about what she said for a moment, then nodded. I took her hand in mine and headed back to Mason and two of his men.

  “West, can you give me a ride back to the city?”

  Mason looked quizzically at me first, then he nodded. “Yeah, I can do that.”
