“Jesus, Dani,” I whisper in her ear when she takes me out and palms my erection.
“Fuck me, Ricco,” she begs. “I want you in me. I want you close to me again.”
I take her right there, her legs wrapped around me as we bask in the sweet smell of hay and sunshine.
“I could have a lot of fun in this barn with you,” I say with the first thrust. I lay my hand at her neck and flex. Her eyes light up. “I could tie you up. Straddle you over that milking bench. Spank your ass, then fuck it while your hands are cuffed.”
“Yes,” she whispers, her eyes rolling back in her head as I fuck her hard, thrusting in and out, impaling her on my cock as her hips rise to meet mine. “It’s a date.”
She climaxes right before I do, and the sounds of her pleasure-laced moans spiral me into my own perfect climax. I hold her against me, the two of us panting and sated. We take a stolen moment to revel in each other, her head against my chest, her legs entwined with mine.
“I have to go,” I say on a sigh as we quickly dress. “But this was a really good fucking send-off.”
“Yes, sir, it was,” she says with a happy sigh.
I hold her to me. I kiss the top of her head and squeeze her hand. "Ricco, do you have any… farmhands or whatever?"
"My farm hands were just all over your body."
"Oh, very funny," she says, with a laugh. "But I swear I just saw somebody walk by that window…"
I'm up and at the door before she finishes her sentence. I see somebody, too, a shadow. I draw my gun, immediately alert. Her eyes widen at the sight of the pistol in my hand.
Did someone see us in here? What the fuck?
"Who's there?" I shout. "Show yourself."
Footsteps approach, and a large shadow of a figure comes into view before I recognize Adriano, a man of the Brotherhood. Likely sent here by Sergio.
"What the fuck are you doing creeping around back there?" I ask, shaking my head. I’m grateful Dani's dressed. "Get in here. Jesus, you’re lucky I didn’t shoot you. Adriano, this is Dani."
Adriano scowls, the grumpy motherfucker. "Nice to meet you," he lies. It's obvious he isn't happy to meet her at all.
Yeah, we’ll be talking alone, later.
"I didn't know you guys got in yet. Sergio told me to come over. He wants me to attend the negotiations, says that you're the best at it, and he wants me to learn from you." He gives Dani a funny look. "I didn’t know we had company."
"Dani’s with me,” I snap, holding back from the need to deck him. "So Sergio sent you here?”
I’m gonna fucking kill him.
“I was nearby. I was heading home after a trip, and I told him I’d check in.”
“Fucking check in? As if I need a babysitter?”
“Relax. You haven’t been here in a while. It makes sense that he wants a little hand-holding. So just relax, buddy."
That's not why he's here, and he and I both know it.
"I was just heading back in," Dani says. Penny and the kids are back in the yard when they see us. They wave excitedly to Dani, who waves back. “See you later?” she asks. I nod and kiss her cheek before she trots off to meet them.
As soon as she's gone, I whirl on Adriano.
"Now tell me why the fuck you’re here.”
He holds his hands up in the air. “What the fuck is your problem, Ricco?" he says.
"Dani isn't gonna threaten anything for us," I tell him, shaking my head.
"Ricco, your beef’s with Serg, not me," Adriano says. "Nobody's been in this house for a while. Housekeeping came by, they brought groceries, and I'm just here to make sure everything's okay." He shrugs his shoulders. "I have a question, though.” There’s steel in his voice. “What the hell are you doing?"
"I don’t owe you an explanation."
"Yeah, but anybody else in your position would." He shakes his head and turns to go.
“Keep your fucking opinions to yourself.” Jesus, who does he think he is?
Adriano turns around, his eyes sparking at me. When my grandfather picked him up on the streets, he was an orphaned kid. He's grown up under the influence of the Montavios, and he's tough and ruthless, but he knows that he and I can't fight.
"I told you," Adriano says, "your problem is not with me."
I get another buzz on my phone; I look down at the screen.
Sergio:
Meeting's been rescheduled. You have the day off. Use it wisely.
"Looks like we have a rescheduled meeting," I say to Adriano.
"What did Sergio say?"
I roll my eyes. "Use the day off wisely." Jesus.
"Marialena is in town, Tosca and Mario, too. Come to dinner tonight. Bring her.” He scowls. “See how she handles it."
