I laugh and smile. “I guess you’re right. I’ll think on it. It would be nice to have something to call my own.”
She pats my hand. “Good.”
CHAPTER 20
Passion and Fire
Nyla
“Gio,” I squeal as I run through the barn.
I’ve been running from him for about twenty minutes. He’s chasing after me because I ate the rest of his mozzarella Ava made. It was so good; I couldn’t help myself.
“Come here. I blinked for one second and you stole my food right off my plate. I’m going to kick your ass, Ny.”
I giggle as I run faster. I go to turn the corner, but he wraps his arms around me and tackles me down into a pile of hay. The wind is knocked out of me, but I can’t stop smiling.
He kisses all over my face as I lie beneath him, panting for air. “If you say you’re sorry, I might have mercy on you,” he says in my ear.
“What if I don’t want mercy?” I say as I look up into his eyes.
He takes my lips and kisses me passionately as he palms my ass and rolls us so I can straddle him. Things heat up quickly as he pushes my dress up. He breaks the kiss to look me in the eyes.
“I thought I was crazy. You don’t have panties on,” he says while frowning up at me, even as he fingers my wet slit.
I shrug. “They’re not always needed. Thongs chafe.”
He rolls his eyes but wastes no time reaching to release his zipper. I lean over him to kiss him again. Grabbing the back of my neck, he deepens the kiss while using his other hand to guide himself inside me.
I gasp into his mouth as he thrusts into me. He grasps my throat as I start to ride him slowly. I look him in the eyes and that dark intensity is there.
He grabs my ass with his free hand, guiding me on his length. I bite my lip and start to circle my hips because it feels like the right thing to do in this moment. He groans and tightens his hold.
“Fuck, Ny, just like that.”
I keep riding him until my legs start to shake. He flips me onto my back and starts to thrust deep inside me. Too deep, I reach for his waist and try to hold him back.
He tugs the top of my dress down and captures my nipple between his lips. Soon his thrusts turn into a mix of pleasure and pain. I hold on to his lower back as I try not to cry out too loudly.
“Gio,” I cry when he goes really deep as he sucks my nipple and flicks his tongue against it.
He leans in my ear, his voice deep and husky with lust. “I love when you call my name. You feel so good. I can’t get enough of you.”
“Oh shit,” I scream. He feels amazing. The hay stabbing me is ignored as he shifts, pinning my legs back as he looks down our bodies to where we connect. I love watching him enjoy my body. It’s almost as big a turn-on as having him inside me.
I reach for his shirt and tug it up. He releases me long enough to get it off. Reaching for my mouth, he sticks two fingers inside. I suck on them as he moves his lips to my neck to pull the flesh there into his mouth.
I moan around his fingers. He drags them from my mouth down to my throat. When he lifts his head to connect gazes with me, his eyes are so dark with lust. His face is twisted with it as well.
“I love you,” I cry.
Jace
I stand outside the barn, with my head back against the wall and my eyes closed. It’s not that I didn’t know they had taken things to the next level. I just wasn’t expecting it to hurt so much to see them together.
I’d come out here to find them after they ran out of the house thirty minutes ago. Ava wanted me to check on them. I should have known this would be what I would find.
Gio doesn’t have to be guarded here. He’s been trying on and off to control his reactions to Ny but most of the time he’s been allowing himself the time with her.
“You’re in love with her too.” I open my eyes and look down at Ming.
She holds her hands up. “Your nose is red and so are your cheeks. Want to take a walk, dude? I can tell you’re on the verge of tears.”
I push off the barn and start walking. I take a deep breath to pull it together. I’m not sure if I’m doing the right thing anymore. My silence has always been a problem.
This time it’s an issue for me. I’ve lost control of what I wanted. I’m losing my family all over again.
