“We agreed that Iwasn’tmarrying you.”
“No, we agreed that youweremarrying me.”
“No, we agreed that you were being abully.”
“No, we agreed that I wasprotectingyou.”
She threw her arms up in the air, which caused her blanket to slip, exposing the tops of her breasts. Unfortunately, she grabbed it before it could drop any lower. “I’m not having this argument with you again.”
I laced my fingers behind my head and leaned back onto the pillows. “Good. I’m glad we’re in agreement.”
“Good.” She turned to head back into the bathroom, then pivoted. “Wait.”
She pointed a finger at me. “We are in agreement that we arenotgetting married.”
“No. We are in agreement that it is useless for you to argue with me. Weare,in fact, getting married as soon as I can arrange it.”
She stormed toward the bed. “You’re impossible.”
“And you’re adorable.”
She waved her hand in front of me. “It’s not going to work, Enzo. Whatever it is you’re planning. I’m warning you. It’s not going to work.”
I ran my gaze over her. “Are you sure?” I then gave her a wink. “I think it’s working pretty well so far.”
She balled her hands into cute little fists. “Argh!”
Before she could step back, I snatched her around the waist, pulled her down onto the bed and yanked the blanket from around her body. As I rolled on top of her, I cupped her breast, leaning down to flick her nipple with my tongue. Then cast a glance up at her. “So what do you think is my plan?”
I swirled my tongue around her areole before pulling the nub into my mouth.
Bianca’s back arched as she moaned. She was breathless when she answered. “You’re trying to bully me into marrying you.”
I ran my hand over her hip. “To be fair, you did say you loved me.”
She leaned up on her elbows. “I was tied up and you were spanking me with your belt at the time! Confessions under torture are unreliable.”
I forced a knee between her thighs, spreading them as I placed my forearms on either side of her head, forcing her to fall back onto the pillows. “Is that a challenge, beautiful?”
She swallowed. The sight of the delicate muscles of her throat contracting had my cock hardening as I remembered that same sweet throat choking on my shaft. “If you think I’m going to say it again, you’re crazy.”
I kissed the top of her cheekbone. She really had the greatest cheekbones, sharp and defined. I skimmed my lips to the tip of her nose. “I’ll make you a deal. If I can make you say you love me,without using my belt, you have to spend the day with me.”
“And if I don’t?”
“You’re free to leave.”
It was a lie, of course. I had absolutely no intention of letting her out of my sight. It was now clear, whatever dangerous game Renata had been playing, her parents were also involved up to their fucking eyeballs. Now they were planning on using my girl as a pawn.
They would have to get through me first.
I would do anything to keep Bianca safe. Even the possibility that she could share the same fate as Renata made me want to howl with rage. Renata made her choices and sealed her fate.
My girl was an innocent in all this.
And I would see she stayed that way.
She would not be tainted by this noxious bullshit.
