The Mafia Princess

27

I pull away from him and look in his eyes, they are full of longing and despair.  He leans down and kisses me.

It's a kiss of reuniting.  He kisses me desperately and pulls me in closer.  

He slowly pulls away and smiles down at me. 

"I hate that motherfücker but he sure knows how to dress you" 

I can't help but smile.  I'm back with him.  I feel at home

"You must be tired" He says and quickly sweeps me off my feet.  He carries me across the lawn and into a helicopter.  He puts me in the passenger seat and walks around to the pilot seat and sits down.  He sends me a wink and a smile before starting up the helicopter and soaring away

---------------------

I am gently shook awake by Caden.  I look around and notice that we are back at his mansion. 

"Do you want me to carry you" He smiles at me

"No, I can walk" I say as he puts out his hand which I take so he can lead me back to the mansion

We make our way up the drive and walk through the doors, and go into the elevator.  I look up at him and he looks nervous. 

"Are you ok" I ask, he looks different for some reason

"Yeah just-"

The ding of the elevator cuts him off.  We step in and the elevator and it begins to rise

"Just what" I ask

"It's nothing" he quickly says to me as he averts his eyes from me

The elevator reaches our floor and I quickly make my way into my room.  I close the door before he has the chance to go after me.  I hear his footsteps slow near my door but they quickly pick up and leave into his room.  I let out a breath and make my way to slip out of my dress.  I find a comfy pair of sweats in the closet and slip them on.  I go to lay in bed but I just can't fall asleep, there are so many questions running around in my brain.

Why would he even try and save me? Do I mean anything to him? How did he know where I was?  

These questions build and I get out of bed to pace around.  Am I just an object to him or does he really like me? All of this wondering makes me thirsty and I make my way to the exit of my room so I can go get some water.  

I open the door and see Caden standing here.  He looks about as shocked as I feel

"hi" I breathe out 

My eyes roam his body as I notice that he's shirtless with only a black pair of pajama pants on his lower half.   My face heats up and he starts

"Valentina, I wanted to talk to you.  Can I come in?" he says as he stares deeply into my eyes 

"yeah" is all I can manage as I let him into my room 

He stalks over and takes a seat on my bed. I follow him and sit on the opposite corner away from him.  I avert my eyes as he starts talking

"I just wanted to say that with everything that happened today, I want you to know that you mean something to me" my eyes travel to his as he continues "and that now that Carlos, is dead, I want to start something, with you" 

I am taken aback by his declaration 

"So thats why" I start "you did all of that" 

"Yes" he quietly says "and I would do that ten more times if it meant you stayed away from the hands of that monster" 

"oh, how did you find me" I ask

He smiles and says 

"Carlos wasn't as bright as he thought he was, he was just a baby in a suit" 

I let out a small chuckle and ask 

"And, who was that woman?" 

"What woman" His happy expression suddenly turns shocked 

"The older woman, who told me you were coming" 

His expression morphs to a hint of anger

"I didn't send any woman in to warn you" He says gravely 

"Its fine, she helped me honestly.  Maybe she was some sort of double agent" 

He seems to calm at this sentiment and moves to get up and leave.  

"Wait" I call after him

He quickly stops and I make my way up to him.  I stop a foot away  

"Thank you" I say "for everything"  

He reaches up and pushes my hair behind my ear 

"Anything for you" he breathes out 

We've gotten so close that I can feel his breath hit my face 

I move to say something but he just closes the space between us 

This time when our lips touch, it isn't the rush and urgency of last time.  It's soft and sweet.  I could almost say with full confidence that this is a kill of love. 

I rush up to run my hands through his hair while he reaches down for my legs and he lifts me and carries me to the bed as we continue the kiss.  He lays me down and our kisses begin to speed up.   His hands roam all over my body and tugs at my sweats.  He moves with a passion I have never seen from him before.  It's like a deep hunger he has been keeping away for a while is finally coming to out.  I peel my sweatshirt off and he makes quick work of the sweatpants.  He begins to kiss down my neck and stomach.  When he reaches right before my underwear he stops and looks up at me.

"Do you want to do this" 

And I just breathe 

"yes"
