Aria's POV
"What's going on between you and Celia?"
He didn't answer immediately. He swirled the wine in his glass, watching the liquid cling to the sides.
"There's nothing to explain" he said finally said.
"She works for me…. Thats all she's ever been."
"She wanted more once." he added calmly.
"I didn't.... and I don't blur lines.... Not in business..... Not in my bed."
Then why does everyone think...….." I started.
"Because people like stories...." he cut in quietly.
"And because I didn't correct them."
"Why didn't you?"
He leaned back slightly fingers lacing together.
"Because correcting it wouldn't have changed what mattered. You were gone and until you weren't...… nothing else mattered enough."
The words hit me harder than I expected.
"I'm not asking you to trust me overnight... I know I don't deserve that but I won't lie to you, I'll never hurt you or do anything that'll make me lose what we have."
Silence followed.... as an overwhelming sense of relief flooded through me.
The second bottle was already open. The wine warmed my veins, soften my edges and suddenly....… I became painfully aware of him.
The sharp line of his jaw, the way his shirt pulled across his chest when he leaned back.
The quiet control in his eyes..... God... he was unfairly handsome. I didn't realize how long I'd been staring until his voice cut through me.
"If you keep looking at me like that I won't hold back."
Heat rushed to my cheeks but I didn't look away..... I didn't want to.
Something dark and hungry flashed in his eyes.... He inhaled slowly…..… then set his glass down with a sharp sound.
"Fuck this…."
He crossed the space between us in two strides.
His mouth claimed mine...… hard...…..unrestrained...…The kiss wasn't gentle... It was pent up..... Five years of restraint breaking all at once.
My fingers slid into his hair, tugging without thinking while he groaned softly against my lips hands gripping my waist pulling me flush against him.
"You have no idea…. What you do to me." he murmured against my mouth voice rough and coarse.
The world narrowed to heat and breath and the way he kissed me like he was afraid to stop.
I gasped his name and that was all it took.
He lifted me effortlessly, my legs wrapping around him on instinct as he carried me toward the cabin, shutting the door behind us with a muted click.
My back met the bed, soft sheets beneath me. He hovered above, eyes dark, breathing heavy, also restrained.
"Tell me to stop….." he said quietly
"And I will….."
My heart thundered...…
"Don't...." I whispered.
Alessandro's POV
"I've been trying to fight this" I breathed against her skin... pressing my lips just under her jaw.
Her pulse was thundering...… She was just as wrecked as I was.
"But I can't...… I want you too damn much."
She melted against me when I kissed her neck, my hand trailing down to her waist.
God...…. she's so soft...Every curve...…. every subtle arch in her body made my cock throb with need.
I dragged my mouth down to her collarbone, sucking lightly, hearing the soft moan spill from her lips.
It fed something primal in me..... my hand roamed down her back, sliding over her hips, her ass, gripping and squeezing just to feel her in my palms.
She trembled as her moans got louder, lips parted, eyes glazed with heat.
Fuck....
She wanted this...She wanted me..... I couldn't stop even if I tried.
I pulled back just enough to look at her...…. those heavy lidded eyes...… those lips swollen from kissing.
Lust was written all over her face and the second our eyes met, it was like a silent permission passed between us.
I grabbed the hem of her shirt and yanked it up and off her...… She didn't hesitate. She wanted this just as desperately as I did..... I stripped her quickly, carefully, and once she was bare in front of me..... my breath caught.
"Jesus, Aria...…..…" I growled dragging my eyes down her body.
Every inch of her was perfection...…flawless... addictive.
"You're driving me fucking crazy."
I didn't wait..... i dropped to my knees wrapping my arms around her waist, and pulled one of her nipples into my mouth, rolling my tongue around it before lightly biting.
She arched hard into me, moaning loud and recklessly without any filter.
I alternated between her breasts...…licking.....sucking.....biting.....until her fingers were tugging my hair, her hips grinding against me like she couldn't take it anymore.
But I wasn't done...…..
I kissed down her body, slow and torturous. I wanted to taste every part of her...…. I needed it.
When I finally reached the apex of her thighs, I spread her open and just looked.
"Fuck...….baby..... you're perfect."
So wet...…. So swollen...….. So ready...…. I didn't waste a second.
My tongue flicked her clit softly at first, just enough to make her gasp and shudder then I went in deeper...….. licking in long, slow strokes before flicking her again, harder and faster.
I moaned into her..... tasting her..... drinking her in. She tasted like everything I'd been starving for.
Her moans got louder as her hands were in my hair, her back arching.... I slid my hands up her body, pinching and rubbing her nipples while my tongue kept its rhythm. flick, circle, suck, repeat...…. causing her legs to tremble then she broke.
Her orgasm crashed into her like a tidal wave as she cried out loudly, her body shaking uncontrollably beneath my mouth. She clenched around nothing, thighs quaking and I didn't stop until I felt her fall.... completely undone.
She was still panting when I kissed my way back up her body murmuring soft, grounding things into her skin but she didn't want calm.
No...…there was fire in her now.... Something wild...
She grabbed me, pulled me into a kiss, and started tearing at my shirt with shaking hands.
I let her..... Hell! I helped her..... Her fingers ran down my chest, slow and reverent, and the look on her face.....lust.....drunk, mouth parted, shamelessly admiring every part of me..... made me want to lose my mind.
"Are you sure?" I asked chest heaving, voice tight with restraint.
"Yes" she whispered eyes locked to mine.
"I want you in me... now"
I growled as I took off my pants hand stroking my hard length while she watched in awe.
I spread her open gently as I slid the thick length of my cock along her slick center, savoring the way her entire body trembled at the touch...….. I leaned over her, kissing her forehead softly.
"It's going to hurt a little." I warned.
"You're.....… fuck...….. you're tight."
"Then go slow....." she whispered.
"But don't stop....."
That did it.....
I pushed into her...…..inch by inch...…stretching her open...…gritting my teeth at the feel of her wrapped around me..... She was tight...….Too tight.
She whimpered, her nails digging into my back while I kiss her neck giving her time to adjust.
Once I was fully buried inside her, I stilled, my breathing ragged.
"You feel like heaven..." I groaned.
We moved together, slowly at first...….Her body adjusted, relaxed, welcomed me..... Her legs wrapped around me tighter, pulling me deeper...… Her moans turned from pained to pleasured...…. each one rawer, filthier, more desperate than the last.
When I couldn't take it anymore, I pulled out and dropped back to my knees.
Her moans grew loud and wild the second I tasted her again.... I licked her like I was starving...…... I needed her writhing, shaking, screaming again.
And she was...
Then I flipped her...….
Hands gripping her waist, I pulled her hips back and slammed into her from behind.
She cried out, hands clutching the sheets, back arched beautifully. I slapped her ass once...hard...…..loving the way she clenched around me.
"Just like that..." she gasped.
"Please...…harder...."
I fucked her harder... deeper... faster.
My balls slapped against her with every thrust, the sound echoing with our moans, our breath, the slap of skin on skin. She reached between her legs, rubbing her clit fast.
"I'm coming..." she cried.
"Oh my God..... Andro.... I'm...…"
She exploded...…..
Her body convulsed, legs shaking, moans torn from her throat like a prayer.
She was wrecked.... and it only made me go harder.
Her tight, soaking pussy milked me with every squeeze and I held on for a few more thrusts before I came...…. a guttural moan ripping from my chest as I buried myself deep and spilled inside her.
We collapsed together....Sweaty....Shaking.... breathing hard.
She curled into me and I wrapped my arms around her burying my face in her hair..... After weeks of tension.... of fights.... of holding back....
I have her...….
And im not letting go.
