Cazzo, now I was fully hard.
“God, Vito,” she said quietly. “I wish we were alone right now.”
“Why, angelo? What would you do for me?”
“I would get on my knees and unzip you.” She bit my ear lobe and heat rushed to my groin like a lightning bolt. “I would suck you so good.”
My mouth went dry, I wanted it so badly. Licking my lips, I murmured, “Keep that up and I’m taking you to the lavatory.”
“Don’t threaten me with a good time,” she said before nuzzling my jaw.
I forced myself to put her back in her seat. I needed to calm down before I embarrassed myself in front of my men. “Behave, diavoletta mia.”
She buckled her seat belt, but not before smirking at my lap. “You sure? Because it kind of seems like you’re interested in a visit to the mile high club.”
I leaned over and put my mouth near her ear. “When I finally fuck you tonight, I won’t be rushed. I’m going to take my time, edge you until you cry. Suck on your pretty little clit until you beg me to stop. You’ll be so sticky and wet for me, bella, you won’t remember your own name by the time I’m through with you.”
Another bite of her lip, but she didn’t say anything. I could see her hard nipples through her thin t-shirt and it was a struggle to keep my hands to myself. My eyes wandered to the lavatory door.
No, not yet. I wanted tonight to be special.
Distracting myself, I asked, “Why did you say that about my money earlier?”
She didn’t turn, but I could see her reflection in the window. “No reason.”
I didn’t believe her. “Tell me. Something brought this on.”
“Someone might have hinted that your money mattered to me, when it really doesn’t.”
“Who was this someone?”
“Vito, forget it.”
No, that wasn’t how this worked. She wasn’t going to dangle these bits of information and not tell me the rest. I was tired of being kept at arm’s length with her. “Look at me.” I waited until she finally angled toward me. “Who has put this into your head?”
“I’d rather not tell you.”
Meaning, it was someone I knew. Someone I was close to. And Maggie was trying to protect them.
Instantly, I knew. “My sister.”
Maggie squirmed a little in her seat. “I’m not mad about it anymore. The only reason I brought it up was to make sure you know that I’m not after the winery or your money or whatever. I just want your dick.”
I couldn’t fucking believe it. Paloma argued with Maggie—and this wasafterI ordered my sister to apologize. Clenching my molars, I snatched up my mobile and unlocked it. Maggie’s hand blocked the glass. “Vito, don’t. You can’t say anything to her.”
“Why not?”
“Because I can handle myself. I’m serious. I’ve been around mean girls all my life, don’t worry. And it doesn’t help when they think you’ve tattled on them. Let it go.”
“I won’t have her stirring up trouble or making you feel bad.”
“I’m fine. Really.”
“What else did she say?”
“It’s not worth getting into. Bottom line is that she’s protective of you. Which I guess is good.”
“Why didn’t you tell me? Instead, you disappeared again.”
