“I’m glad we could have this day together,” she murmurs, leaning her head against my shoulder.
“Me too.” I chuckle. “And I’m very glad we could have last night together.” She blushes in response to the flirtation.
What I’m not telling Gia is that as much as I want to be present with her, my mind is split in so many different directions. The DeLuca family has made it clear they intend to move into our territory whether or not we are on board. Anthony’s soldier Christopher might be snubbing his nose at my rules—which will need to be dealt with in a way certain to infuriate Anthony. A loyal member of the King family, Smitty, has been targeted by someone unknown. My sister has been summoned to Russia, a place where she will be surrounded by people I can’t keep her safe from. Every day, something new for me to worry about is added to my plate.
I take a deep breath, momentarily closing my eyes to push away the encroaching worries. Today is about Gia and me growing closer before I’m plunged back into the chaos that awaits me. The boat glides through the gentle swells, carried forward by the wind’s caress. Gia and I sit in companionable silence.
Eventually, we drop anchor near a secluded cove surrounded by towering cliffs and calmer waters. Gia’s hand tightens around mine, grounding me further in reality. I glance at her, the warmth in her eyes mirrored by the sun’s gentle glow.
“What are you thinking about?” she asks, smiling at me.
I shake my head. “No way, I want to know more about you. Tell me about your dreams.” I have no desire to share all the worries racing through my thoughts with her. “What do you want for your future?”
She takes a moment to gather her thoughts, her fingers tracing delicate patterns on the back of my hand. She giggles awkwardly. “I’ve never had anyone ask me that.”
I smile at her, encouraging her to open up. “Well, I’m asking now.”
Gia’s gaze turns distant for a moment. “I’ve always longed to travel,” she says, her voice filled with excitement. “To see the world, experience different cultures, taste exotic foods. I want to see it all. I want to see the Eiffel Tower in Paris, ride a gondola in Venice, and hike through the rainforests of Costa Rica.”
I listen intently, captivated by her dreams and the way her face lights up as she speaks. It’s as if I can see those places through her eyes and feel the same wonder and curiosity that she possesses. While travel has never been a priority for me, I adore the enthusiasm it ignites in her.
“I can picture you doing all those things,” I say with genuine admiration. “You’re so goddamn fearless.”
Gia blushes and looks down at our intertwined hands, her fingers tracing the contours of mine. “Well, I don’t know if I would say that. It’s funny; I’ve never told anyone that.”
“Consider me your biggest cheerleader.” I squeeze her hand gently. “I want you to explore the world.”
A shy smile tugs at the corners of Gia’s lips, and she leans in to press a soft kiss against my cheek. “Thank you,” she whispers. “Maybe we could do it together.”
I smile and nod. “Yeah, maybe,” I offer. She must already know the reality of growing up in our world doesn’t offer many opportunities for the don to be away from the day-to-day operations, but I would never rob her of having those experiences.
Gia stands, turning to face me before she lowers herself onto her knees in front of my seated position. She smiles a mischievous grin but doesn’t say a word as she tugs at the waistband of my shorts.
A rush of desire ignites within me, and I shift, allowing her to pull my shorts low enough to gain access to my semi-hard cock.
Gia’s eyes sparkle with anticipation and excitement as she licks her lips. “Is that what you wanted?” I ask her.
She nods, her eyes never leaving my rising erection. I reach down and guide Gia’s head. As her soft pink lips wrap around me, I let out a low groan. Her tongue flicks against my shaft. Gia not only knows what she is doing but obviously loves doing it.
With a gasp of pleasure, I moan as I say, “Such a good girl.”
Gia’s lips and tongue move with expert precision, sending waves of ecstasy through my body. A mixture of heat and friction makes me tremble in response, a reaction not elicited by many women. Her skilled mouth works tirelessly to bring me to the brink of release. I can feel every subtle movement, every flick of her tongue, as she continues to drive me wild with pleasure. Her hand pumps my shaft as her mouth toys with my head, and the rhythm of her movements has me about to explode in her mouth.
“Climb on that cock, baby,” I instruct, wanting to feel her tight pussy wrapped around me.
She looks up at me, her mouth still wrapped around my cock, and moans a muffled no on my dick.
“No, seriously,” I grunt. “You gotta stop, or you’re gonna make me come.”
This only serves to excite her more as she picks up her pace, moaning wildly as she takes my entire shaft into her mouth. The head of my cock presses against the back of her throat as she is unable to accommodate my thickness any further.
I watch in awe as Gia continues to take me in, her moans growing louder and more forceful. My body trembles with anticipation as I struggle to hold back my release. Finally, I can’t take it anymore.
“Jesus, babe, do you want me to blow in your mouth?”
She nods excitedly, squealing a little on my dick.
Happy to give her what she wants, I grip the sides of her head and thrust into her mouth with a newfound urgency, my hips bucking to drive myself as deep as possible into her throat. Gia’s eyes water, but she never breaks her rhythm. She keeps sucking and bobbing, determined to please me.
