Adore Me: Mafia Romance (The Lucky Family Book 4)

by Eden Rose

  After our dessert was served, a mixture of fruits, puddings and cakes, I asked the one question that has been burning my mind.

  "What do you do while I am at work?"

  He snorted and took a drink. "That's what you want to talk about during our date?" I nodded and winked at him. "Construction. I own a construction company that I work at during the day. I book the jobs and make sure that my employees handle their business."

  "I was expecting something more mystical. Like, during the day you are Batman!"

  Vincent laughed and then kissed me on my cheek. "Batman was the good guy. Don't you forget."

  Johnny came into the dining room with two to-go cups. "Have a good night, you two and don't do anything stupid!" He winked at Vincent and then went to the door to open it. "I have a party coming in tonight."

  I stood out of my chair in a food coma. Vincent put his arm around my shoulders, and I slipped my arm in his suit jacket while we walked out. I leaned on him as we walked, and he supported me. Food comas aren't fun.

  "Thanks again, Johnny!" Vincent called as he and I walked to his car. "That was nice to spend time with you. Thank you for coming," he opened the BMW's car door for me, and I slipped in.

  "Let's hot tub when we get back. Naked," I said to him as he got into the car and drove off.

  "Sounds amazing."

  *

  When we walked into his house, I started to get undressed. As I slipped off my coat, I walked over to Vincent and took his off. Slowly, I held his eyes and unbuttoned his shirt. Each button that I reached, his eyes got larger and his breathing grew heavier.

  Tonight, I didn't want to rush. Tonight, I wanted to feel as if we were the only people in the world. It felt so good to take my time undressing the patient yet controlling man in front of me.

  "You know, it is only fair for me to get to undress you too," he said in my ear as I got to the last button.

  I gently pushed his shirt over his shoulders and leaned in to kiss his collarbone and slip my tongue a little over it. "If you do that, then we won't make it to the hot tub." I kicked off my shoes and then reached behind me to unzip my skirt. His eyes watched my movement as the skirt fell to the ground and then so did my shirt. I scanned the living room and I noticed that my jewelry box was over there. "Do you see something you like?" I ask as I stood in front of him wearing a corset and matching lacy hip hugging underwear.

  My undergarments were thanks to Vincent. He stocked my bureau full of delicate and beautiful Italian lingerie in all different colors. There were so many different pieces, that I have had a pair for every day these past weeks since we got back together.

  "Where to begin to answer that..." in a quick swoop he picked me up and threw me over his shoulders. "I really don't think you even had to ask that." Vincent opened the slider and then set me down right in front of the tub. He slowly took his pants and briefs off to show off his growing erection.

  While I reached behind me to unlatch my corset, he hugged my hips and slipped his fingers into the band of my panties to slide them off. We moved slowly and I relished the attention that I am getting. Once I were naked and so was, he, I climbed into the tub.

  The water was very hot as my body became accustomed to it. My sex was the part of me that took the longest to get used to the water. I settled into a corner that had some jets on and waited for Vincent to get in.

  He walked back from the little veranda with two towels and set them on the corner of the tub. “You look so good. Naked and in this tub waiting for me," Vincent crooned as he settled into a spot across from me and grabbed my foot to rub it. "So how was your day?" Sometimes I just want to laugh at him. This is what he wants to talk about while we are naked and in a hot tub?

  I rubbed the heal of my foot into his erection very gently. "Mm, let's talk about something else. Maybe we should talk about how you are naked," I giggled as he raised his eyebrow to give me a naughty look.

  "I think you being naked is more interesting than my being naked," he slid across the tub and pushed my knees apart. "Yes, this is way more interesting." Vincent settled in between my thighs and held me around my back to crush our fronts together. I slipped off the bench and rested right on his erection. "Mm." He moaned while taking my mouth to his and bruising my lips with an intense kiss.

  I rubbed my mound against his ever-hardening erection and giggled as it got very hard. My tongue matched his as my hand floated in between us and stroked his dick up my slot. This teased us both and I immediately got more excited. I lifted myself up by my legs and guided him inside me.

  "Shit!" He screams as I lowered myself down slowly onto him. Once he was all the way in, he hissed and adjusted my body, so I was resting on the bench with my legs wrapped around his waist. "I am going to take my time and enjoy every bit of you, my darling," he moans while picking up his pace but not too fast. I love feeling him underneath me as he thrusts up.

  In one move of Vincent inside me, I clenched myself around him as he held me tighter and repeatedly hit and stroked my g spot. Vincent reached his hand in between us and rubbed my clit lightly as he slammed into me hard and then smoothly. The changing of his paces had me going crazy. There was no way that I could pick up his pattern to brace myself for the assault of his hips.

  I raked my fingernails over his chest and gripped them into his abs. His finger flicked my clit just rough enough for me to slam my body into his. I cried out as my orgasm rippled through me. Vincent moaned ever so lightly as he slowed himself down and reached to hold my body to his.

  "Mm, baby. You feel so good," I purred as he thrust himself all the way in and then back out. "Don't stop, I love feeling you!" I begged as he sped up and gripped my back tighter. With his grip, I arched my back to flush our fronts together. I whispered in his ear as he held me tighter and kissed my neck; "I love you."

  Vincent stopped what he was doing, and I groaned. "I love you." That is all he said as he drove himself into me and then started to shake. As he orgasmed, Vincent leaned over and kissed me.

  When he pulled out of me, I realized that both of us were out of breath. I held onto his neck as he sat up and I pulled myself up to sit with him.

  "If I would have known that a French dinner with you would have led to naked hot tub time, I would have taken you there every night," he said as he leaned down and kissed me.

  "Oh, I see, I only get one when you want a piece of ass!" I threw back at him and I squeezed his neck with my fingers. "Tonight, was amazing. Thank you for clearing your schedule for me."

  He kissed me ever so softly, and then rested his forehead on mine. "I wish I had done this a lot sooner. Being alone with you is an amazing feeling." I sat on his lap as he got comfortable on the bench and folded myself around him. We laid like that for what seemed like hours as the world closed in around us. "You make me so happy," he whispered, and I snuggled my cheek into his chest. I hummed as I got more comfortable against him and he held me tighter.

  I was startled as he rubbed his hand through my hair and realized that I must have dozed off. "I am sorry, I didn't realize that I fell asleep," I kissed his chest and then licked it.

  "There is nothing to be sorry for. Do you want to go inside?" Vincent squeezed me closer to him and in that moment, I didn't want to go inside at all. I didn't want our alone time to be over.

  "If you want to," he adjusted me off of his lap and stood up out of the tub. As Vincent got out, he held my hand to help me slide out as well. Once I am out, he wraps a towel around me and rubs excess water off of my skin. "Don't forget our clothes," I said as he walked over to them. "I wonder how many voice mails you have."

  We walked through the backyard to the slider naked and hand and hand. I didn't want to come off this cloud; it is beautiful up here. The cold air in the house shocked me and threw me off of my cloud.

  "Are you going to tell me what you did all day?" Vincent asked as we walked up stairs to the bedroom.

  He he. I have been waiting for this. I'm deciding to be as vague
as possible. "Well, Sammy picked me up from work to tell me that I needed to make a statement about being shot. So that was one thing that I did."

  We walked into the bedroom, and I headed to the shower to turn it on to get the chlorine off of me. I hated the way it smelled but I love swimming. Plus, my hair was a rat's nest since Vincent held onto it while we were making love in the tub.

  "Oh, okay. How was seeing Joel's parents?" He skirted around asking me the one question that he wanted to know the answer to. I thought it was funny that he didn't come right out and ask how seeing Joel was.

  "It was nice. They are nice people."

  Chapter 22

  I waited for him to ask me the question. Hell, I'm dying for him to ask it to me. This is so funny. After climbing into the shower, I heard him turn on his phone and it beeped a couple of times to signify a missed alert.

  Once I was cleaned and felt better about myself, I got out of the shower and am faced by a very questioning Vincent. He didn't ask me what he wanted to, and I just took my time drying off.

  "Is there something you want to ask me?" I asked while walking past him to the vanity in order to brush my hair out. My brush got stuck on some tangles and I cringed while I attacked them with my brush. Reminder: get hair touched up! I gave myself a mental reminder as I looked at roots. Gross.

  "Damn. Fine, I will ask. How was seeing your ex-husband?" When Vincent asked me this question, his voice was filled with annoyance.

  I shrugged and continued the assault on my tangles. "Interesting. Very interesting. Basically, he thought that by Leo being there that he was my bodyguard." Vincent snorted as he climbed into the shower. "Shut up. I have street credit too!" That really got him to laugh so I reached my hand on the handle for the shower and yanked it to the cold side. He screamed and I laughed as I ran into the bedroom.

  "Payback is a bitch, love."

  I felt brave in the bedroom and antagonized him. I rubbed lotion on myself and my body still hummed. "Bring it!"

  "What else happened?" The water shut off and I smelled his body wash into the bedroom. He smells so good. I love just wrapping myself into his scent.

  "I slapped him because he told me I only was interested in the money," while I was talking, I rubbed lotion onto my feet. "Never did I point a gun at someone before... However, the gun felt so good in my hand. I am such a mess."

  Vincent walked into the bedroom and sat on the bed next to me. "You are not messed up, you showed strength. Many people would have killed him," he rubbed my leg and squeezed my thigh. "So... tell me what you want to do. Are you wanting to stay here and live with me... or...? What?"

  Crap. I have no idea what to say. There is no way that I want to ruin our night by asking him to move out with me or something. I am still very surprised he hasn't mentioned anything about getting engaged. "Do you want me to live here with you?" I asked the question cautiously.

  "Yes, but only if you want to. I thought you liked it here. Especially the hot tub."

  I giggled and my face burned from remembering the hot tub. "Well, I wouldn't mind living here with you. I just want to feel like I have a home here," I waited a minute to let it settle in before I whispered, "home here with you."

  He stood up and adjusted my legs, so he was in between my thighs. I felt his hands grip my ass and I looked into his stormy eyes full of heat. "Baby doll, of course you have a home here. You can change anything you want in the house. This is your house too." He got up to brush his teeth.

  I smiled and crawled over to my side of the bed and climbed into the sheets. "Good. Come snuggle with me," I smiled at him and then pulled back the covers. I'm still naked and I loved that he is naked as well. We slept in a spoon the whole night and it was amazing.

  Chapter 23

  "Isn't it silly for me to wear white?" I asked Anne as I looked over my wedding dress. The dress was plain and only cost me thirty dollars. "I mean, I am three months pregnant."

  "This is your wedding day. You should be happy!" Anne called to me as she stepped into her bridesmaid's dress which was also plain. I picked a grey to match my depressed mood. I am pretty sure that everyone here knew that my centerpieces cost more than my dress.

  "I can't be happy. My soon to be husband's dad is walking down the aisle. My parents are supposed to be here." Anne is the only person that I can talk to about my parents. When Joel asked me to marry him after I told him I was pregnant, I wanted to tell him no. Why in the world is the point in getting married if we only share the day with his family? "Do you think it is silly for me to get married? I am nineteen. I am so nervous..."

  "Don't be silly. This is your wedding. I know you miss your parents, Vans. However, this can be a start to a new family."

  "Savannah! It’s time!" Anne's mother yelled at me.

  I awoke in the middle of the night feeling empty. Even though I received that letter two weeks ago, I am still haunted by it. How can someone just keep something like that from their wife?

  It is baffling to me that Joel did this to me. He looked at me in my eyes for years and knew he kept this from me. Sociopaths have more humility than Joel has.

  Vincent stirred in his sleep and I became restless. Obviously, sleep isn't coming back to me, so I decided on going swimming.

  I climbed out of the bed and walked down the hall to the stairs and out to the slider that leads to the pool. There is something about swimming that just makes me feel better. I love the way the water hugs my body and grounds me to the earth.

  Walking into the pool is magical and I immediately felt better. I dived into the pool after stepping off the steps and swam over to the raft. I swung my body in order to get on the raft that I keep in the pool. Hands down, Vincent putting a heater in the pool is probably the sweetest gesture I ever received.

  With my body on the raft, I leaned back into it and sunk my butt into the raft to get warm. My eyes closed and I floated for I don't know how long.

  I must have fallen asleep because when I opened my eyes again, it was dawn. The big raft had floated over to the stairs, and I stepped off of them and walked into the house. It was very cold in here, my nipples hardened as I walked up the stairs to shower for work.

  Vincent was just waking up and looked over at me. He smiled when I entered the room and wiped his hand over his face. "Swimming?" He asked as I walked over to the bathroom.

  "Yes, sorry. I couldn't sleep."

  With the shower on and my adjusting the water, he came into the shower and pulled me in too. Our bodies leaned against each other naturally and I rested my head on his shoulder. His arms came around me and he placed a kiss in my hair.

  "Don't be sorry. Next time, wake me up and I will go with you."

  *

  "Guess what!" Anne screamed as I walked into the office holding two big gulp coffees. It was pretty cold outside and since I didn't sleep well last night, I got a latte.

  My best friend and I usually take turns buying the other coffee and lunch, so I handed her a cup. "Mm?" I asked as I set my stuff down on my desk and kicked my heels off.

  She blew me a kiss as a thank you and I puckered my lips back at her. Anne took a drink and then clapped her hands together like a cheerleader. Where does this energy come from? Hot damn! Sometimes she reminds me of the Energizer Bunny. "Carlo's offer went through and we close tomorrow. Also, there are two appointments that are coming in today to list and look for homes. Isn't that great?"

  I sat down at my desk and took my lap top out. "That's great! Don't forget that we meet with the broker today to set up the inspections." We had to make sure that Alphonse's units were up to code before listing them.

  I watched as Anne stood up from her desk and walked over to mine. After one of her butt cheeks were resting on the edge of my desk, she leaned in like she was about to tell me a secret. "So... I have been wanting to ask you about something."

  I knew she was going to ask me about the money that I received from my parents. However, she was nervous since she didn't want me to rip
her head off. "Yes?"

  "What are you going to do with the money that your parents left you?" There it is. The one question that I didn't know how to answer.

  "I am really not sure. Maybe I will invest or something. That is a lot of money. Grr. This is so confusing. What do you think?"

  She hopped off my desk to go back to hers and plunked herself into her seat then rolled her chair over to me and pushed my folders aside. "Maybe you should just think about it," I laughed as she rolled herself back to her desk to grab her coffee and then came back. "That money was left for you to share with your husband. I know you got it late, but maybe you can use it to start a new life with... Vincent."

  I rolled my eyes and pushed my files back in front of my place at my desk. "Shut up," I shoved her and then kicked her chair to make her roll away. "We are just... I don't even know. I guess dating. Is that what you call living with your lover?" I asked the last part with a joking tone hoping to disguise my true feelings. There was no way I wanted to give away that I was anxious.
