I stared at the two men, Rio with his hand on Jamie’s shoulder, and Jamie vibrating with tension.
“No,” Jamie said. “I do my best work alone, when I’m prepping for a burn.”
“Jesus, Jamie,” Rio snapped, but Jamie shoved him aside and left.
“Where is he going?” I asked, but Enzo shook his head.
“He’ll come back and maybe he’ll have the intel we need to take down Mitchell.”
Rio was pacing now. “What if he burns it all down? What is that going to do for any of us?”
“He won’t and he’ll come back.”
“I wish I had your faith, Enzo,” Rio muttered and then vanished out into the yard.
I snuggled deeper, feeling completely safe as Rio engaged the alarms when he left, and it was just me and Enzo. He scooped me up, almost bridal style, although I was clinging to him like a burr to a saddle, and then he went upstairs, and laid me on the bed.
“I’m not tired,” I said, and yawned, because yes my body is an asshole.
“Who said we’re sleeping sweetheart?” Enzo said, and climbed on the bed to cradle me, kissing me deeply. “I want to kiss every inch of you, love you, make you feel safe, and yeah I know it’s insane and you might end up hating what I did, but you’re inside me, in my thoughts, my heart, every dream I have, and I’m so in love with you it hurts.”
I stared up at him, saw the emotion in his chocolate eyes, and reached up to tangle my hands in his hair. “I could never hate you for keeping me safe, you don’t know what they did to me, they… you make the nightmares less.”
“Roman…” He scrubbed his eyes, his hands shaky.
“Come here,” I said.
“What I did…”
“Please hug me,” I asked.
“You’re here, safe.” He pressed a kiss to my lips.
“I’m okay.”
Then he kissed me. “ I love you right back. You’re everything,” he whispered against my skin, tracing patterns with his tongue. “Everything I never knew I needed.”
“Can you make love to me?” I asked, unsure if that was even the right thing to say.
Enzo pulled back, his eyes searching mine. “We can just kiss, and it doesn’t have to be anything else. There’s no rush.”
I shook my head, pulling him back to me. I shoved aside all the fear and pain into a box and slammed the lid. “I don’t want to stop. I want to feel everything with you. I want to touch your…” I was mortified, and he leaned down so i could whisper in his ear. “your hole, and your cock and I want to kiss you and…”
He stole my words with a frantic kiss, rolling us so I was on top, sprawled over him.
His smile was tender as he brushed a strand of hair from my face. “You want to make love to me? You want to push your fingers in me?”
I nodded, feeling a blush creep up my neck. “I want to do everything with you. I just… I’ve never done this before.”
“I know, sweetheart,” Enzo said, his voice husky. “We’ll go slow. I’ll teach you.” He captured my lips again, his tongue sliding against mine in a way that made my toes curl. “You can stop anytime. Just say the word.”
“I won’t want to stop,” I whispered.
His hands slid down my back, cupping my ass and pressing me into him. I could feel how hard he was through our clothes, and it sent a thrill through me.
“Let me take care of you first,” he said, flipping me onto my back again. His fingers played with the hem of my shirt. “Can I take this off?”
I nodded, shy but desperate to feel his skin against mine. Enzo tugged my shirt over my head, his eyes darkening as he took me in.
