Chapter 252: Daddy I'm Home

DANTE'S POVI woke to soft lips against mine, Gianna's fingers trailing along my jaw as she kissed me slowly. Her body was warm against mine, our legs tangled together under the sheets.My hand slid up into her messy curls, fingers threading through the silky strands as I deepened the kiss.She made a soft sound against my mouth, her body arching into mine."Good morning," she murmured when we broke apart, her eyes heavy-lidded and dark with desire."Very good morning," I drawled, my voice rough as my hands traced down her spine, pulling her closer.She laughed breathlessly. "I thought after last night you'd be burnt out."I rolled us, positioning myself above her, my mouth finding the sensitive spot just below her ear. "That's your fault," I murmured against her skin, feeling her shiver beneath me. "Getting me all riled up."Her hands slid up my back, nails grazing lightly. "Dante...""Besides," I continued, trailing kisses down her throat, lower, my lips finding her collarbone, "You

DANTE'S POVAs we descended the stairs, I heard Ariel's voice drifting up from the kitchen, animated and excited."...and the view was gorgeous.

"Dad...""Get out." I looked directly at Selene. "Now.""Dante, please, I..." Selene started to stand, her hands trembling."I wasn't talking to you." My gaze cut back to Ariel.

GIANNA'S POVFinally, everyone was seated and ready to eat. Dante sat at the head of the table, me by his side, Ariel on the other. Selene was absent.Grace was already setting out plates, the table laden with food. Scrambled eggs, bacon, fresh pastries, fruit, coffee. She'd gone all out."Grace, this looks wonderful," I said warmly. "Thank you."She smiled, that kind, motherly smile I'd come to appreciate. "It's my pleasure, Mrs. DeLuca."I glanced around the room, then back at Grace. "Where's Mira? Isn't she joining us?"Grace's smile faltered slightly. "I'm so sorry, Mrs. DeLuca. She left early this morning. She didn't say where she was going."I nodded slowly, understanding settling over me. Mira was still avoiding Bruno. All my efforts to reunite them had proved futile, but I'd keep trying.My eyes swept over the dining room again, taking in all those empty chairs at the long table.
