Once she's clean, I help her out of the shower and wrap her in a towel. I lead her to the bedroom and help her into a fresh pair of pajamas before tucking her into bed.
“I’m fine, Armando,” she insists again.
I sit beside her, unable to think of anything but the shooting. The blood pooling under Marco. He took a bullet for Hannah. I know he’d do it again in a heartbeat.
She shouldn’t be involved in any of this. Shouldn’t have seen me choke the life out of a man on her shop floor. Shouldn’t have been shot at in the alleyway.
She’s an innocent, and we don’t involve innocents. Especially not women.
Fuck. I stand. “Get some sleep,” I say gruffly.
She grabs my hand to stop me. “Don't go. Come to bed with me.”
Oh, the temptation. She’s looking at me with those big, brown eyes. So beautiful in her bed.
But she doesn’t need sex right now. She needs comfort.
I kick off my pants and climb into bed beside her, and she snuggles into my chest, her hand resting on my heart. The rise and fall of her breaths are soothing.
I lie there and stare up at the ceiling, my mind chewing on the day’s events.
I shouldn't have let myself get close to this girl. I feel I'm signing her death certificate.
Being with me is the same as walking toward the Reaper himself.
Fuck, I should leave...
“What happens now?”
I don't have the answer to that. All I know is that I can't keep putting her in danger. I can't keep this up forever. “I don't know,” I admit. “But I'll figure it out. I won't let anything happen to you. Whoever shot at you and Marco is going to die. I'm going to tear his head off with my bare hands.”
I feel her tense.
“Sorry.” I should definitely spare her the details of my revenge plan. “What I mean is, what happened today will never happen again.”
She gives a wobbly nod. Her gaze doesn’t reveal any fear or revulsion for me. No, this is the girl who watched me kill a man with my bare hands and still kissed me.
I lean in and taste her mouth.
As her lips part, I deepen the kiss, exploring the sweet depths of her mouth with my tongue. She responds to me, her body pressing against mine with increasing urgency. Our breathing becomes ragged as we continue to kiss, lost in the intoxicating sensation of each other's touch.
I slide my hands down her back, pulling her in closer to me. Her breasts press against my chest, and a moan escapes her lips.
I pull away for a moment to catch my breath, looking into her eyes as I run my hand through her hair. We're lost in each other, and the world outside of this moment doesn't exist. I lean in to kiss her again, and I climb on top, my hands roaming over her body as I kiss her deeply. She responds with fervor, her hips grinding against mine. I can feel her wetness through her panties and makes my cock rock hard.
We both slowly remove the rest of our clothing, not wanting anything to prevent our skins from merging as one.
I trail kisses down her body, starting with her neck, continuing down to her breasts and then further down to the soft patch of dark hair between her thighs. I kiss her softly at first, and then I part her lips with my tongue and plunge in, tasting her.
She lets out a gasp, her hands grabbing onto my head as she arches her back. I continue exploring, my tongue darting with quick flicks as I lap up her juices. She gasps again, letting out a high pitched moan as she claws at my hair.
I part her thighs wider with my hands, running my tongue slowly through her folds. She shudders in response.
“Oh God.” She lets out a shaky breath.
I slide my arms underneath her thighs, pulling her legs up to my shoulders. Her breathing quickens as my tongue flicks against her clit. She digs her nails into my back, arching as I lick her slowly, my tongue brushing over her sensitive nub. Her body tenses up as I flick faster, her muscles tightening as I push her closer and closer to the edge.
I continue my assault on her clit, running my tongue around it in tight circles. Alternating between licking and sucking as I hear her breathing deepen and grow shaky.
“I'm going to come,” she mumbles. Her entire body is trembling now, her muscles tensing up and releasing in a powerful orgasm. Her juices flow into my mouth as she moans loudly.
I continue until she's done, finally sitting up and looking at her. She's breathing heavily, her chest rising and falling quickly. She wraps her arms around my neck, pulling me into a kiss.
