Lia's POV

His eyes went from dark to absolutely black, his pupils dilating until they swallowed almost all the brown. His hand on my waist tightened, fingers digging into my skin hard enough that I'd probably have marks.

"What did you just say?" he asked, his voice rough and dangerous in a way that made every nerve ending in my body light up.

"Yes, sir," I repeated, softer this time, looking up at him through my lashes.

Dante made a low sound in his throat—something between a groan and a growl.

    Lia's POVShe glided away with the same elegant efficiency she'd displayed throughout.I opened my menu carefully, running my hand over the expensive leather, and immediately felt my eyes go wide—probably comically wide—at what I saw inside.The prices.Oh my god, the prices.A simple omelet—granted, it was described as being made with "farm-fresh organic eggs, imported Gruyère, and seasonal vegetables"—was thirty-five dollars.Pancakes—"buttermilk pancakes with Madagascar vanilla and fresh berries"—were twenty-eight dollars.French toast made with brioche was thirty-two dollars.Even coffee—"single-origin, ethically sourced, French-pressed to perfection"—was eight dollars a cup.For coffee. Eight dollars.I could get an entire breakfast at a diner for less than the cost of one item here.My hangover-addled brain tried to do quick math about what breakfast for two would cost at a place like this and came up with numbers that made my stomach clench with anxiety."Dante," I whispered ur

    Lia's POV"Morning, James," Dante replied easily, handing over his keys with the casual confidence of someone who did this regularly. "Take good care of her.""Always do, sir," James assured him, sliding into the driver's seat and pulling away smoothly to wherever they parked the cars.Apparently this place had valet parking. Of course it did.Dante's hand found the small of my back again—that now-familiar touch that was becoming one of my favorite things. Possessive but gentle, guiding but not controlling.He led me toward the entrance with that same easy confidence he'd displayed walking into the villa on the island, like he belonged in expensive places and knew it.Before we even reached the door, it was opened for us by a uniformed attendant—an older gentleman in an impeccable suit who nodded respectfully."Mr. Marchetti," he greeted with a slight accent that might have been French. "A pleasure to see you again, sir.""Thank you, Pierre," Dante replied smoothly, guiding me inside

  • DIRTY DESIRES: DADDIES TASTE BETTER   CHAPTER 93

    Lia's POVFeeling bold and slightly reckless, I turned my back to him and slowly—deliberately—pulled off the oversized t-shirt I'd been wearing since my shower.I heard Dante's sharp intake of breath behind me and smiled to myself.I took my time selecting clothes from my closet, very aware of his eyes on me, feeling empowered by his attention rather than self-conscious.I chose a simple sundress—light blue cotton with thin straps and a fitted bodice that flowed into a loose skirt that fell to just above my knees. Casual and comfortable but still pretty. Easy to move in but flattering.I pulled it over my head and smoothed it down, then turned to look at Dante for approval.His dark eyes had gone even darker, his jaw tight with barely restrained desire."Perfect," he said, his voice slightly rough. "You look perfect."I felt my cheeks flush with pleasure at the compliment.For shoes, I selected simple leather sandals—comfortable enough to walk in but still nice. Then I grabbed a small

    Lia's POVThen he pulled me close again—wrapping his arms around me and tucking my head under his chin, holding me securely against his chest. I could hear his heartbeat, steady and strong, feel the rise and fall of his breathing, smell that clean masculine scent that I'd been dreaming about since leaving the island.I felt safe. Protected. Cherished in a way I'd never felt with Rob."We have a lot to figure out," Dante said quietly, his voice rumbling through his chest where my ear was pressed against it. "About what this is, what it means long-term, what happens next. The logistics of it all—you, me, my father. How that works in the real world, away from the island where everything felt possible."I nodded against his chest, knowing he was right. What had seemed natural and uncomplicated on that Mediterranean island—being desired by both father and son, exploring that dynamic without overthinking it—felt more complex here in New York with jobs and real life and social expectations.

    Lia's POV"How are you doing?" Victor asked. "Truly. Dante mentioned you broke things off with Robert finally. I'm proud of you for that—I know it wasn't easy.""It was easier than I thought it would be," I admitted. "Once I finally saw clearly what the relationship was—or wasn't—it wasn't hard to walk away.""Good," Victor said with satisfaction. "You deserve so much better than what he was giving you. Better than what he's capable of giving anyone, honestly."There was a pause, then Victor's tone shifted slightly, becoming more serious."How is the situation with Robert now?" he asked carefully. "Is he leaving you alone? Not causing problems?"I shot Dante a quick glance, knowing I needed to be careful here. Dante suspected my bruise was from Rob but I hadn't confirmed it and he didn't know the full story of what had happened at my office. And I didn't want Victor knowing either—didn't want both of them worked up and plotting revenge."He's... keeping his distance," I said, which wa

    Lia's POV"He tried to convince me to give him another chance," I continued. "Said he could change, that he'd been a bad boyfriend but would do better. When that didn't work, he got nasty. Started saying cruel things about how lucky I'd been that he even dated me, how I was nothing without him, all the typical manipulative garbage."Dante's jaw clenched but he didn't interrupt, just kept listening."I got in my Uber and went home," I said. "Packed up all his stuff that was at my apartment and threw it in the dumpster. Went to bed feeling lighter than I had in months."A small smile tugged at Dante's lips. "Good. He deserved that and worse.""The next morning, I went to work," I continued, my voice getting slightly tighter as I approached the difficult part. "And when I got there, I found out I'd been fired. Effective immediately. No real explanation given, just that it was a 'company decision made at the executive level.'"Dante's expression darkened immediately. "Robert.""Yes," I co

    Lia's POVThat afternoon, after a late lunch where Rob and Celeste had been insufferably touchy with each other, Celeste announced brightly that we should all spend the rest of the day by the pool."It's too beautiful to stay inside," she said, tossing her blonde hair over her shoulder. "We should

Relief that it was him. That Da

    Lia's POVThe fabric was stretched obscenely tight over his erection, the outline of his cock absolutely impossible to ignore. He was big—I'd already known that from feeling him pressed against me in the pool, but seeing it was different. More intimidating. More exciting.He was thick and long, a

    Lia’s POVRob had never shown this kind of respect to anyone, let alone people he considered beneath him socially. Rob would have sent someone else to deal with this, or shown up and made grand pronouncements without actually listening to what anyone needed.But Dante was different. Everything abou
