Dominic noticed how Isadora tried to remain in control, not giving in to her insecurities and he relaxed his stance. “I would never try to control your life like that. If you lived here you wouldn’t have to travel to see me and I would know that you were safe from hoodlums.”
Her cheeks heated again. This man had no shame but at least he was honest up front and she knew exactly what he wanted. If she lived in his apartment, he’d have a semblance of control over her life. She swallowed nervously as she looked at him.
“It would be cheaper to live here instead of staying at the hotel, but I’m still going to look for an apartment while I live here.”
Dominic smiled again and emptied his glass of wine. “I’m glad you agree to that. Now you only need to agree to my two other requests.”
“What happens when I do?”
“Then you’ll get your shot, go through to the relaxation room and spend a few hours getting pampered, whatever you want. We will order dinner and spend the night indoors.”
Isadora watched him carefully. He sounded too sincere for her liking. “Do you go to these extremes for every single woman you want to sleep with?”
“Do you really want me to answer that? I won’t lie, Isadora, I do want to fuck you but I want to do it my way. I know what I like, and I won’t apologize for that. There is zero chance of me having a child out of wedlock, so I take everything I do very seriously, even this.”
Isadora knew that it was now or never. If she refused him tonight, not that she particularly wanted to say no, but she knew that tomorrow she’d return to the hotel and she’d never hear from him again. This was exactly why she’d agreed to more. She wanted him to open up, to begin trusting her, and there was no better way than giving him exactly what he wanted.
She had no idea when it had started but she guessed it was the first time she’d seen him walking into that restaurant. He hadn’t noticed her and her first glimpse of him had her wanting to know him for some reason. She felt obsessed with the man and everything about him drew her in.
“Okay, does this pampering session include a massage?” She smiled as she said that, wanting to put Dominic at ease.
“Whatever you want, you just need to say the word.”
“I’m happy with the shot. I don’t want a child out of wedlock either,” she said and she was treated to another of Dominic’s smiles.
She had just finished her wine when Dominic took her hand, kissed her palm and led her down the stairs to a room where two women stood ready and waiting. He left her there with a kiss to her forehead and she was told to strip.
For the next two hours, she was waxed, massaged and oiled. She felt relaxed and she knew then that one touch from Dominic would make her want more. She wasn’t sure how to describe what she was feeling, only that her feelings scared her.
Her labia felt sensitive but oh so smooth to the touch, and she kind of liked the feeling. She walked back up the stairs when her treatments were done, and headed to the main suite. Dominic wasn’t in there but candles were lit and in the bathroom, a steaming bubble bath awaited her.
She slid into the bathtub, large enough for four people. She closed her eyes as she rested her head against the back where a towel had been conveniently rolled up for her to relax her head on. Steam rose and she could smell orchids and roses and something like jasmine.
The water in the shower turned on and Isadora opened her eyes. She hadn’t even heard Dominic walk inside the bathroom or take his clothes off, which now lay in a heap on the floor. He stood with his back to her, naked and wet as the water cascaded over his shoulders and back.
She’d been right, he was fantastic to look at naked. Muscles bunched and flexed as he washed his hair and Isadora was surprised to find herself standing behind him and her hands reaching for him. When had she gotten out of the tub?
Dominic turned around and he watched her, his eyes looking predatory. The rose tattoo on his ribs caught her eye and she let her fingers trail over the black and red petals. She looked up into his eyes and licked her lips. Dominic bent his head down towards her and kissed her.
His kiss left her breathless, his tongue swirling with hers was an erotic dance. Her heart beat to a new rhythm as Dominic deepened the kiss and she felt completely and utterly dominated by him. She’d never been kissed like that before and her pussy clenched for his touch.
His hands left a fiery trail over her body, and she gasped audibly when his fingers found her naked lips and he stroked her gently. He touched her everywhere but where she needed him and her arousal had now taken over.
He lifted her leg and lowered himself to his knees. Her leg went over his shoulder and then his tongue slid over her opening and circled her clit. She closed her eyes and leaned her head back against the tiled wall as his fingers plunged inside her and she lost herself to her orgasm that pushed her over the edge much too quickly.
Dominic slowed his movements but he kept licking her until the last shudder went through her body. As he stood up he picked her up and shut the water of the shower off. Dripping wet, he walked out of the bathroom and placed her on the bed.
He was fully erect and he closed his eyes when she fisted him and stroked her hand up and down. His cock twitched and before she could blink he’d widened her thighs and pulled a condom on. His first thrust had her clenching her eyes shut and his movements were slow enough for her to get used to the invasion.
He fucked her like he did everything else, methodical, slow and easy, hard and punishing. Deep strokes had her panting for breath but still wanting more. Her legs went over his shoulders and he leaned forward on his arms, nearly bending her in half.
He fucked her until she couldn’t remember what day of the week it was and neither did she care. All she knew was Dominic inside her, on top of her, thrusting hard and deep and stretching her open wide as pain mingled with pleasure.
He didn’t stop until she came again and only then did he thrust harder and harder until he came with what sounded like a growl in his throat. She could feel his cock twitch inside her and when he lowered her legs, she knew there was no way she’d be able to walk.
“That was fucking amazing,” Dominic echoed her own thoughts as he breathed hard.
He pulled out of her, discarded the condom and he lay down on his back next to her. She felt sated, sore and so out of her depth that she knew now why she’d been so obsessed with him. It was the best sex she's ever had, and she knew at that moment that nobody else would ever come close.
Dominic was up before the sun rose, and he knew that Isadora would be sleeping for a while. He’d taken her twice during the night; her screams had filled his ears, and he’d loved every second of it. During sex, her face was an open book, which she clearly didn’t realize.At the kitchen counter, he poured himself a cup of coffee, grunting a good morning to Austin, who stood on the other side. Ingredients lay out on the counter as he prepared to start breakfast. Dominic hadn’t slept much, and neither had Austin, it seemed.“The look on your face says it was a productive night,” Austin said with a grin on his face.“It’s been a while,” Dominic replied.“What time do you want to leave?”Dominic stretched his arms over his head and emptied his cup of coffee. “We’ll leave tomorrow at five sharp. Take the day and night off; spend it with whatever floats your boat. I won’t be going out.”“Do I still have to make you breakfast?” Austin’s grin had Dominic grinning too.“Definitely not; you’re n
“Anything specific you want to do today?”She looked thoughtful for a moment, and Dominic watched as she shifted on the soft cushions. He was pretty sure that she was still a little sore. He wanted to take her again, but he wouldn’t. It wasn’t in his nature to hurt people he didn’t have to, and never a woman, unless she deserved it.“Do you ever do anything normal?” She twirled a strand of her hair around her finger as she watched him.“Define normal?”“Like ice skating or going for ice cream, maybe going to the movies or eating at a diner,” she said.“I’ve done all of the above … when I was twelve or so.”Isadora laughed delightfully as she stood up from the couch. “Great! I’ll go get ready, and then we can walk around the market square. There’s always lots to do there on Sundays.”She disappeared down the hall before he could tell her that he hadn’t exactly planned on going out, and he wasn’t sure who’d be more pissed off, Hudson or Ethan, but there were ways around that as well. He
At exactly five am, the elevator doors dinged open, and Dominic stepped inside. Ethan smirked as he looked at him, and Dominic knew that he hadn’t said a word, yet. In the basement parking lot they climbed into the SUV, and Cooper sped off through the quiet streets.“Anything to report?” Dominic asked the four quiet men in the SUV with him.Cooper grinned and shook his head. He was the nicest of the four, the nicest manners, courteous, and respectful to others. He didn’t drink or smoke, didn’t go to strip clubs, and he never helped himself to the hookers they had on payroll either.Austin was less reserved. He knew what he wanted, and took it when he wanted it. He liked women, and a lot of them. He drank on occasion, but usually only when they were at the house with no plans to leave. He was a reader, and spent a lot of his time outdoors.Ethan liked to be in the shadows. He never really left Dominic alone, he was always somewhere nearby, and it had proved valuable over the years. He
The four men were led into the small meeting room adjacent to Dominic’s study. His men took up their positions as did his brothers. Dominic had given them each a slice of the proverbial pie, and they had their own responsibilities under his watchful eye.Casio Robustelli reported directly to Gage, and he had a hand in the gun trade. Their guns were bought from the Russians, and distributed for personal use in their territories.Giovanni Manso reported to Eris, and they kept a firm eye on their strip clubs. Eris was good with the women, and washing their money was second nature to him.Santino Conti reported to Faro, and he was a genius when it came to their gambling rings. He never misplaced a cent, and handling money was what he was good at.Dominic watched Elmo Larussa, and the many escort clubs they owned. Prostitution was easy money, and Michael De Santis, an Elder, also owned a few escort clubs. At first the Elders voted against Dominic’s escort club but he soon showed them that
Isadora was a breath of fresh air in Dominic’s life. Within a month, he slept at his penthouse every night, curled up against her. Talks of finding her own apartment had dwindled, and Dominic had only gone to his country estate for his twice-a-month meetings.The more time he spent with her, the more he liked her. Most nights she cooked dinner for him and his men, and afterwards they’d watch a movie or talk about their lives. She’d talk about work, and more than once she’d refused his offer of a better job in one of his own companies.Dominic had left Giovanni with the girls in the warehouse to question them before he made his move, but they’d been there for two weeks with no results. He wasn’t the type of man to condone the torture of women, but he was getting tired of not having answers.Ethan parked the large SUV inside the warehouse, and Dominic stepped out, not waiting for the men to flank him. They were indoors but he knew Hudson would have something to say, he always did.“Can
Isadora smiled as she read the text on her phone from Dominic. Her life felt like a fairytale. Every morning Dominic woke her with coffee in bed. They’d take a shower together, and get ready for work.Ethan always had breakfast ready when they emerged hand in hand. Her driver, Remy, would take her to work, and pick her up again in the afternoon. She’d started paying off a lot of her parents’ debts since she had no living costs.“What are you smiling about?” Susanna asked her.Susanna was the first one to befriend Isadora at work, and they always took their lunch together, and ate whatever they bought in the park across the street from where they worked. She liked Susanna, and so far she’d only told her that she’d met someone.“Can’t I smile?”“Nuh uh, that smile says someone’s getting laid tonight,” Susanna said.Isadora burst out laughing, and shook her head. “I get laid every night.”“Oh my word, Isa! Spill it, girl!”Isadora sighed, but she couldn’t wipe the smile from her face. “T
Dominic was running late and had sent another text to Isadora to let her know that he would meet her at the event. Remy would time it perfectly and he would arrive at the same time as her. He’d seen the charge from the boutique on his credit card and he felt slightly better knowing she’d fit in.“Ten minutes, Dominic,” Cooper said as he sped down the street.“Who was supposed to remind me about this charity thing?” Dominic asked.“I did remind you,” Austin said.“Half an hour before the fucking thing starts,” Dominic bit back.“At least it’s not like the last time, where you had to tell people that you cut yourself shaving to explain the blood on your collar,” Hudson said.Dominic snorted. “What’s this one for?”“Orphans,” Ethan said and produced a glossy piece of paper from his jacket.Dominic looked at the page and read through it quickly. It was a $500 a plate function where they’d give speeches and people would donate money. He had nothing against orphans and he donated regularly
Isadora woke up to an empty bed, and she swallowed her emotions away. She’d never felt so cheap in her life before. His words had hurt her, and she couldn’t believe she’d let him call her a whore for a second time.Was she Dominic’s whore? She supposed she was. He paid for everything, she lived in his penthouse, used his car and credit card, and in return she let him fuck her whenever and however he wanted.She ran to the bathroom, and made it just in time as she vomited up bile. She dry heaved a few times, and realized that someone was holding her hair back. She lowered her head to the toilet, and took a few deep breaths.“Are you feeling sick?” Dominic asked her.She shook her head, and stood up on shaky legs. She rinsed her mouth a few times, and pulled the lever of the toilet to flush her vomit away. She looked up, and saw the concern in Dominic’s eyes.“I’m not sick,” she whispered.Dominic placed his hand on her forehead, and frowned slightly as he looked at her. “Well, you’re n
