Untouchable

CHAPTER 36

Gia sat in the living room for a long while after talking to Gio. She didn't know why she had called him. She guessed it had to do with the fact that she was never going to be in his arms again. She would never feel his lips roaming her body again, she would never smell that sweet stench of his cigars again.

She had no idea why she felt at home every time she smelled that sweet aroma that she hated so much and at the same time missed it when it wasn't around her.

Gio had been such a big part of her life she had no idea how she was going to make it without him. How was she going to keep her head held high and pretend that losing him had not broken her? How was she supposed to give her heart to a man that was so willing to love her when she had no more heart left?

The ache that she had was all consuming. She ached physically and mentally and emotionally. She was coming apart at the seams and no one noticed or perhaps no one cared as long as the Benedetti organization was rolling in the dough and thriving in power.

How many more smiles would she have to fake to actually feel like smiling again? How many more times would she have to tell herself that she was fine until she actually began to feel that she might truly one day be fine? Lies. She told herself lies all the time to make it through the days. She went through the motions and faked smiles and did what had to be done.

Kade was a wonderful man that had adapted to her way of life and her way of doing things and never once questioned her. He remained by her side as much as possible and lead alongside her taking most of the work off her hands so she could relax.

Their love making was hot and passionate and wild at times and she loved it. She loved the feel of his naked skin against hers. She loved how he felt gliding over her as he pumped deep and hard inside her. The grunts and moans he made were so hot and sexy it turned her on more. He was more than a giving lover he was attentive and creative and open to anything and everything.

One night with Kade was fulfilling and mesmerizing and erotic at the same time. She was always sore and raw from the sheer power of him between her legs. He was a master at fucking her and making love to her. The man was like a machine. He never tired of tasting her and giving her all kinds of unimaginable pleasure. He was always one step ahead of her. He predicted her needs and made sure that she was always taken care of and never wanted for anything.

Their union had been small with only the ranks present. The contract had been signed and binding their Families for eternity and the marriage contract had been drawn up and the signing had been scheduled for a week after the binding of the Families.

Gia took one last look in the mirror and was pleased with her attire and make-up. The dress she wore was a lavender chiffon dress that cascaded to the floor. The A-line cut hugged her waist and flowed down just perfect. The V-neck straps crossed at the back which gave her full breasts enough support without a bra.

Her long chocolate locks were up in a French twist with some strands hanging lose around her neck. She wore her techy jewelry as always and added a diamond necklace and bracelet. Her lavender sandals were a bit higher than her normal four-inch heel, but she had made an exception for that one occasion.

Gia walked down the stairs and grabbed her cellphone from the desk in her office and took a second for herself. She closed her eyes and took a deep and calming breath in.

"To say that you look beautiful would be a crime and an understatement," Kade said, walking up behind her and wrapping her in his arms.

"Thank you." She turned around and found him equally stunning in a black tuxedo with a lavender tie to match her dress. His straight raven hair was combed back, and his eyes glimmered with happiness.
