"One smoldering sexy mafia princess, coming right up!" Belle got to work and it didn't take much time at all. I stood up when she was finished and looked in the mirror again.
"Hot damn, Ria. You don't even look like yourself." Elana looked at me with an awestruck face.
"Good, because tonight I'm not Maria Salvatore. I'm just Ria." I smiled and sprayed on some perfume.
"Okay, well just Ria. Let me have that address and we'll take my car over there. Just text it to me and I'll put it in the GPS. Are we all ready?" Elana looked at Belle and I.
"Don't forget a change of clothes and everything." I reminded Elana. Belle wore the same size as me so she could fit into the clothes that I had at the condo.
"I've got them. Let's go girls!The car is parked around back." Elana grabbed her Michael Kors bag and her keys. I grabbed my phone and my purse and so did Belle. We walked out of her house and to the garage in the back. I didn't think Elana was a car person but she totally was. She had a top of the line BMW M4 in navy blue. It was gorgeous!
"When did you get this, El?"Belle asked as we all got in the car.
"Demitry got it for me! Isn't it perfect?" She was so happy.
"Demitry? That Russian guy you've been seeing?" Belle smacked Elana's shoulder.
"I'm not part of the mafia so it doesn't matter who I see." She smirked at me.
"Lucky ass!" I laughed as she started the car, pulling out onto the road.
We drove for about forty-five minutes across the city to the condo. Elana decided to let me drive into the parking garage because I knew where I was going. We switched out and I swiped the key in front of the parking garage entrance and drove to the spot that was marked for the unit. I parked the car and we went up through the private elevator. My father had bought the top condo which was basically a huge two floor penthouse. We got inside the elevator and I swiped the condo key in front of the reader and up we went.
I showed the girls to their rooms and we got ready to head down to the 45th floor. I poured a glass of water while I waited for them to come back down. The master suite and a future nursery were on the first floor while the other six suites were on the second floor. I sat at the bar and drank the water. This was going to be a fun night. I wouldn't let myself be responsible tonight. This night was much needed.
"We're ready to go!" Elana shouted as she and Belle walked down the staircase. I grabbed the keys and attached them with a rubber band to my bra strap. I put the glass in the sink and joined them by the door.
"No last names. No going home with anyone. No getting separated unless it's on the dance floor. We'll meet by the bathroom every hour. Keep your phones on you." Belle gave us the party lecture as her phone started to ring. "It's Paolo." She stared at me in a panic.
"Don't answer, Belle. Send him to voicemail." I said in a hurry. "Let's get to the party before he figures out where we are." I locked the door and we walked towards the elevator once more. Paolo was going to kill us once we got back. We got into the elevator and pressed the button that had 45 on it. We got off and walked down the hall to unit 457. Tonight was my night. Belle's phone started ringing again.
"Marco is calling me, Ria." I shook my head no. She didn't answer and Elana knocked on the door. Some big guy answered the door.
"What can I do for you gorgeous ladies?" He smirked at us.
"We're here for the party. I got a text about it." I showed him my phone.
"Come in and welcome to one hell of a party!" He smiled and I felt his eyes on my backside as we walked inside. It was extremely loud as we made our way to the bar.
"Let's go get some drinks and hit the dance floor." I suggested and the girls followed. I was just Ria tonight. No last name. No problems. No fiance. I was going to live like a normal nineteen year old. We downed some shots of vodka and then tequila. I was feeling buzzed already and that's when I saw him staring at me. This extremely handsome, tall guy with back hair was staring at me. He started to walk towards me so I decided to down some more shots and meet him halfway. Belle grabbed a hold of my arm and tried to stop me.
"Ria, no." She begged me not to leave. I took her hand off of my arm.
"I'm just Ria tonight and Ria is going to go dance with this smoldering hot man." I winked and started to walk towards him again. We met in the middle of the dance floor. He held his hand out and I placed my hand in his. I looked at his face and my god was he hot!
"What's your name?" He asked as he turned me to face away from him, pulling me close to him. His hands wrapped around my waist as I swayed and grinded on him.
"Ria." The song picked up and we matched the beat. He kissed my neck and I bit my lip.
"I'm Niko." He continued to kiss and nibble at my neck. I let out a soft moan and he flipped me around to face him. I looked up at him and felt really dizzy. He put his hand on the small of my back and the other on the side of my face. Some guy walked up to him and he looked away towards the bar. I looked with him, Elana was there with a tall guy.
"Is something the matter?" I slurred and his face turned back to me.
"I have an amazingly gorgeous girl in my arms and you ask if somethings wrong?" He kissed me hard and fireworks went off. We had to have been kissing for at least five minutes. He broke the kiss and led me back to the bar, his arm wrapped around my waist. Elana looked up from the guy and gasped. She looked at me worried.
"Demitry, be nice to Elana tonight. I'm going to be occupied so don't do anything stupid. Keep him in line Elana." He winked at her and kissed me hard in front of them.
"I see you met Lana's friend." Demitry looked me up and down and winked at me. Elana smacked his arm.
"Be nice to her, Niko." She glared at him as we walked away from them. I looked back at Elana and winked at her.
"Give me one sec, okay?" I tried to stand still and asked Niko. He nodded. I pulled out my phone and texted Belle since I couldn't see her.
Me: Hey, where are you?
Belle: Dancing with a guy. Have fun Ria. ;)
Well, I had lost her for the night until it was time to go. I put my phone away and went back to enjoying Niko. He started to kiss me again as we danced. He was intoxicating. He took my hand and we walked away from the dance floor to a secluded corner.
Chapter Six
Nikolay
She was absolutely breathtaking. Her lips were perfect and tasted like strawberries. I couldn't get enough of her kisses. I wanted her so badly. My body responded to her kisses with a raging hard on. I brought her to a corner of the hallway where no one could see us and kissed her neck as I pushed her up against the wall. She moaned softly as my lips touched her skin and my hands wandered down to her ass.
"Ria..." I started to tell her that I wanted her in my bed as she continued to moan.
"Yes?" She looked at me with such innocent eyes. I wanted to possess her and make her mine. She was making me feel things I hadn't felt since Anastasia. I stopped kissing her neck and stared into her eyes.
"Be mine, Ria. Promise yourself to me and only me. Please." I kissed her softly.
"I...I...I wish I could but I can't." She looked down and her smile faded. I placed a hand under her chin and brought those gorgeous green eyes to my level.
"What's stopping you?" I asked her quietly. She stared into my eyes and I saw tears forming in her eyes. I pulled her close to me. "I'm sorry, you don't have to answer that. Promise me tonight and tomorrow, we can discuss it in the morning, okay?" I kissed the top of her head.
"I can promise that." She pulled away but I pulled her back and kissed her hard. She wanted this just as much as me. I picked her up and wrapped her legs around my waist and carried her to my room. I swung the door open and kicked it closed behind me. I kissed her harder and laid her back on my bed.
"I've never done this before." She blushed. I assume she'd never just decided to fuck somebody at a moment's notice. She was too hot to have meant that she's a virgin.
"Done what, detka?" I knew she wouldn't understand the word I ha
d used, it just slipped on accident.
"What does that mean? And I've never..." her voice just trailed off.
"Detka means baby in Russian. Tell me what you haven't done, detka." She blushed and I stood over her as I ran my hands up her thighs.
"I've never been with anyone." She whispered and covered her face with her hands.
"You've never had sex?" I took my shirt off and pulled her hands away from her face.
"No, I've always been told to save myself for my husband." She was embarrassed that she'd never had sex.
"Oh detka, don't you worry. I won't pressure you into this. We can just kiss if you'd like." I offered and I was not about to force her. I was a gentleman. I may be a mafia boss but that doesn't mean I'm a monster. I'm a killer not a rapist.
"I want this...with you. Please, Niko. Touch me. Kiss me. Make love to me. Please, Niko." I couldn't tell her no after that. I pulled her up off the bed and unzipped her dress and slipped it off of her. It gathered on the floor as she took off her heels. They made her much much taller than she really was. She was at below my chin with them on and at my chest with them off. I stared at her as she stood in front of me with just a black lace bra and a matching black lace thong on.
"You are absolutely gorgeous, Ria." I undid my pants and let them hit the ground. I stepped out of them and she ran her hands up and down my chest. I picked her up and she wrapped her legs around my waist. I moved us onto the bed and kissed my way to her breasts. She sat up on her elbows and allowed me access to take off her bra. She blushed as I unhooked it and tossed it aside. She stayed propped up and I ran my hands over her. She closed her eyes and moaned as my fingers circled her nipples.
"I want more of you, Niko." She moaned my name and it drove me over the edge. I kissed her nipples and she moaned again. I kissed lower and removed her panties. She had a shaven and that was so hot. I loved it. I moved her legs apart and spread them. She was blushing as I kissed right above her sensitive spot. She wriggled and I grabbed her thighs and began to kiss and lick and suck, pleasuring her as my hands massaged her breasts.
Her hands grabbed handfuls of the sheets and she threw her head back. She was close to release. "Niko! Don't stop! It feels so good!" She moaned over and over. She found her release as she screamed out in pleasure. I inserted a finger as she rode her pleasure wave. God, she was so tight and she was a virgin. I saw it. She was untouched and I was about to make her mine. I would persuade her in the morning to be mine.
I got up and laid on the bed next to her and kissed her. I moved her back so that her head was on the pillows. "That was amazing." She sighed and kissed me again.
"I'm not done with you yet, detka." I smirked and moved myself to between her legs. "Let me know if it's too much, Ria." She nodded and I positioned myself at her entrance. I slowly pushed myself inside her and I knew she was no longer a virgin when she winced and looked at me with wide eyes. I slowly moved myself within her and she relaxed and began to moan. I picked up speed once she was used to me and enjoyed how tight she was. I moved faster and faster as she moaned and screamed out in pleasure.
"That's it baby! You're mine!" I moved and pulled her into my chest as we were on our sides, she was facing away from me. I inserted myself inside her again and moved fast and hard. She began to moan and she grabbed my hands as they massaged her breasts. She found her release again and so did I. I kissed the back of the head and held her close to me. She yawned.
"That was absolutely what I imagined it to be the first time, Niko." She yawned again.
"Sleep, love. We'll talk in the morning." I kissed the top of her head and fell asleep with her in my arms.
------------------------------------------
I woke up in the morning and she was gone. I got up and saw that her clothes were gone. I checked everywhere in my room and the bathroom. I quickly put on my boxers, jeans, and a black t-shirt. Demitry was sitting on the couch in the living room. "Have you seen Ria? She was supposed to stay and talk with me this morning. She promised." He shook his head.
"She left shortly after I came out of my room around 8am. She left a note for you." He handed me a piece of paper.
Niko,
Thank you for such an amazing night. I'm sorry I broke my promise. I can't do this. I made a huge mistake. I have a fiance. I have a life. I'm so sorry. I wish my family hadn't forced me into this life.
-Ria
Chapter Seven
Maria
"I want this...with you. Please, Niko. Touch me. Kiss me. Make love to me. Please, Niko." I begged for him as he unzipped my dress. I wanted to feel his lips on my skin again. It was like red hot fire when he touched me.
"You are absolutely gorgeous, Ria." He whispered as he took off his pants.
"I want more of you, Niko." I moaned softly as his lips touched my nipples.
"I'm not done with you yet, detka." He smirked and moved himself between my legs. "Let me know if it's too much, Ria." I nodded and he positioned himself at my entrance. I winced and looked at him with wide eyes. I was his. He had taken something that no man could ever take from me and an odd feeling popped into my heart. I wanted, really wanted it to be him. I wanted to be his. I don't know why but I wanted this everyday with him.
He moved faster and faster as I moaned and screamed out in pleasure. "That's it baby! You're mine!" He moved and pulled me into his chest as we were on our sides, I was facing away from him. He inserted himself inside me again and moved fast and hard. I began to moan and I grabbed his hands as they massaged my breasts. I found my release again and so did he. He softly kissed the back of my head and held me close to him.
"That was absolutely what I imagined it to be the first time, Niko." I yawned again.
"Sleep, love. We'll talk in the morning." He kissed the top of my head again and I fell asleep with his arms wrapped around me.
I woke up to people yelling and loud crashes outside my door. I got up and looked at the clock next to my bed. It was 8am and that was entirely too early for people to be breaking things. I had been put on house arrest at the condo Belle, Elana, and I stayed at the night of the party. My father had showed up there the morning after and decided that I was to be taught a lesson. I was still shocked that he hit me across the face. I expected to be punished but he had never hit me before.
--------------------------------------
I got out of the shower and got dressed. I had an appointment today with my doctor. I had been feeling pretty gross and sick the past week and a half. My phone started to ring. It was Marco. "Hi, what's up?"
"How are you feeling? What time is your appointment?" He sounded cold and distant. He was angry with me for going out too. Belle had let it slip that I had danced with some guy. I was pissed at her for it too.
"My appointment is at 10am. I'm leaving with Paolo in fifteen minutes so we can be there on time. How are you?" I tried to not cry. I hated that he was mad at me. He held grudges for a long time. I don't think I'll ever be forgiven for dancing with Niko.
"Fine. Wishing my fiancee hadn't let another man touch her." Yup, here we go.
"You know what, you've been giving me shit about that for the past month and I've done everything I can to apologize and earn your forgiveness. You slept with that stripper multiple times at the start of our engagement and I forgave you time and time again!" I started to yell, someone must've noticed because there was a quiet knock on my door. I walked over and opened it. Paolo was standing there with a worried look on his face. I walked into the living room and saw Louis and Anna watching some Barbie princess movie. Poor Louis.
"Maria, that's different. I'm a man. You're a woman! You ever let another man touch you again and I will make you severely regret it! Since you went to that party you've been argumentative, moody, and a total bitch. I will not tolerate an insubordinate woman!"
"Hit me and I'll kill you. You'll be the one regretting it!" I hung up and fell to the floor, crying. Paolo knelt down and hugged me.
"Marco has chan
ged. What did my father do to him, Paolo?" I looked at him with tear filled eyes.
"I don't like the new him either, Ria. It scares me, not only for you but for the future of our families." He rubbed my back.
"I can't love that man. I loathe what he has become. I said I was sorry and I've done everything he's asked me to do to make up for it." I cried in Paolo's arms.
"I know, Ria. Let's just go to your appointment. Afterwards, we'll get some ice cream and rent some movies." Paolo smiled and hugged me tight. We grew up together and we'd practically been joined at the hip. We grew apart when he became an enforcer and part of father's guard but when he came back it was like no time had passed between us. He was my rock when everything was going wrong.
----------------------------------
We got to my appointment at 9:30 on the dot. I signed in and sat next to Paolo in the waiting room. Normally a doctor would just come to me but I knew I would have to have some tests run so I just told her I would come here. My doctor was my mama's best friend's sister. My father put her on the payroll as soon as she graduated medical school. I'm surprised Father allowed her to open her own office but then again he probably funded it so I'm sure he had given her the okay.
"Maria?" The nurse came out from behind the door that led to Dr. Sciuto's office. I stood up and walked over to her. "Follow me, dear." We walked through the door and into the office. She took my temperature, blood pressure, and my weight. "What is it that you're here for today?"
"I've been feeling sick the past week and a half. I've had a fever a couple of times and have been sick to my stomach." She started writing on her clipboard of papers.
"Alright, dear. Dr. Sciuto will be with you in a few minutes." She smiled and left the office, quietly closing the door behind her. A few minutes later there was a soft knock on the door and Dr. Sciuto walked in. She smiled at me warmly.
"So, little Maria is feeling sick, huh?" She laughed. She had always called me little Maria. It was her term of endearment and love.
