It grew quiet, and I closed my eyes, realizing what I’d just said. It was another one of those times my mind only wanted to think something, but mistakenly ordered my mouth to voice the thought.
“Say that again,” he said calmly, raising my chin.
I looked at him and felt my eyes welling with tears.
“I’m pregnant, Massimo. We’re going to have a baby.”
The Man in Black fixed me with a wide-eyed stare before collapsing to the ground and kneeling before me. He lifted my shirt and planted a soft kiss on my belly, muttering something in Italian. I had no idea what was happening, but as I took his face in my hands, I felt tears running down his cheeks. That strong, imperious, dangerous man was kneeling before me and crying. I couldn’t stop myself and felt tears streaking down my face, too. We froze for a long while, allowing ourselves to take in the new circumstances.
The Man in Black rose from his knees and kissed me passionately on the lips.
“I’ll buy you a tank,” he said. “And if that’s not enough, I’ll dig a bunker myself. I promise you I’ll protect the two of you, even if I’ll have to pay with my own life.”
He said “you two,” I thought, and broke down again.
“Hey, baby girl, it’s all right.” I wiped away the tears with the hem of my sleeve.
“Those are tears of joy,” I said, making my way to the bathroom. “I’ll just be a minute.”
When I returned, Massimo was sitting on the bed with nothing but his boxers on. Then he got up and crossed the distance between us to plant a kiss on my forehead.
“I’ll take a shower. Don’t go anywhere.”
I lay down, snuggling against the pillow and analyzing what had happened. I hadn’t been aware the Man in Black was even capable of crying, least of all out of joy. A few minutes later, the door to the bathroom opened and he appeared in the doorway, naked and dripping with water. Slowly, he made his way to the bed, allowing me to drink in the sight of him before lying down next to me.
“When did you find out?” he asked.
“On Monday, when I got my blood tested.”
“Why didn’t you tell me before?”
“I didn’t want to tell you before your trip. Besides, I needed to come to terms with it myself.”
“Does Olga know?”
“Yes. And your brother, too.”
Massimo frowned and rolled to his back.
“Why didn’t you tell me Domenico and you were family?” I asked.
He took a moment to think, biting on his lip.
“I wanted you to have a friend. Someone close, who you’d trust. If you knew he was my brother, you would have acted differently. Domenico knows how valuable you are to me. I wouldn’t have anyone else taking care of you when I was gone.”
It made sense, I thought. I wasn’t mad and didn’t hold anything against him.
“So… are we calling off the wedding?” I asked, looking him in the eyes.
Massimo rolled to his side and stuck to me with the entire length of his body.
“You’re joking, right? The child needs to have a full family. And a family is three people. Remember?” He started to kiss me. Gently. “What did the doctor say? Did you ask him if we can…”
I laughed and slid my tongue into his mouth. He moaned and crushed my lips in a passionate kiss.
“Yeah… I’ll take it as a yes,” he rasped, pulling away from me. “I’ll be gentle. I promise.”
He reached out to the nightstand and turned off the TV, plunging the room into complete darkness. His hand shot out and snatched the sheets from me, tossing them to the ground, before it slid beneath my blouse and pulled it off. Massimo’s hands explored my body, gently touching my face before trailing down and clamping onto my breasts and squeezing. His head followed his hands, as he pinched my nipple between his teeth and sucked. A strange feeling overcame me—a kind of pure ecstasy that I’d never felt before when someone did that. Massimo didn’t rush it. He took his time, savoring the different areas of my body. His lips flew from one nipple to the other, only to venture back to my face, kissing me passionately on the mouth. I could feel his cock swelling slowly as it rubbed against me with each motion of his body. A while later I started growing impatient. Horny and starved of his attentions, I took over the initiative. I wanted to have him. Right now. I lifted myself a fraction, but the Man in Black predicted my movement and pinned my shoulders to the bed.
“Come to me,” I whispered, squirming beneath him.
I felt, rather than saw, his triumphant smirk. He knew how much I wanted him.
“I’m only just beginning, baby girl.”
Massimo’s lips trailed slowly down my skin, starting with the neck, passing my breasts and my tummy to finally end up where they should have been from the very beginning. He kissed and licked me through the thin lace of my thong, teasing my throbbing clit, before slowly pulling the underwear down my legs and tossing it aside.
I spread my legs, knowing what was coming. My hips started to undulate in the silk sheets, delicately and steadily. I felt his breath between my legs, and a wave of lust crashed over me. Massimo slowly slid his tongue inside me and moaned.
“You’re so wet, Laura…” he breathed. “I don’t know if it’s the pregnancy or if you’ve just missed me.”
“Shut up, Massimo,” I replied, pressing his head against my wet snatch. “Make me come.”
My commanding tone brought out the animal in him. He clasped his hands on my thighs and pulled me rapidly down the bed, pushing a pillow under my back and kneeling on the cover he had thrown off the bed earlier. My breathing quickened. I knew whatever he was about to do, he wouldn’t take much time doing it.
The Man in Black slid two fingers inside me while his thumb trailed soft circles around my clitoris. My muscles tensed, and I let out a loud moan. That’s when he turned his palm around and his thumb gave way to his tongue.
“Help me out a bit, baby girl.”
I knew what he was asking for. With one hand I spread my pussy, giving him better access to the most sensitive spots. As his tongue started to rhythmically flick against my clit, I knew I wasn’t going to last long. His fingers picked up the pace inside me, and their pressure became harder. I couldn’t keep the orgasm at bay anymore. It had been looming over me like a great cloud since Massimo had first touched me. I came with a long, piercing scream, before collapsing on the pillow.
“I’ll have another go,” he whispered, keeping his lips clamped around my clit. “I’ve neglected you lately, babe.”
I thought he was joking but I was wrong. His fingers began to move faster, and the thumb that had been playing with my clitoris earlier now moved to my back entrance. My buttocks tensed involuntarily. Oh no, he wasn’t joking at all.
“Relax, my love.”
I did as he told me. I was in for more ecstasy. When his finger finally slipped delicately inside, I could already feel another orgasm coming. Massimo knew perfectly how to make my body react the way he wanted it to. His fingers pistoned into both my holes, his tongue and lips pushing against my sweet spot. Another wave of orgasm washed over me, and then one more. When I reached the point at which the ecstasy was physically painful, I clawed at his neck. I was out of breath. I collapsed on the pillow, breathing heavily.
The Man in Black turned me over, yanking me up the bed and lifting my legs so that my knees nearly touched my shoulders. He knelt with his cock fully erect.
“If it hurts, just say so,” he breathed, pushing himself inside me before I could react.
His thick, bulging prick slid deeper into me, pushing its way forward. As he reached the end, Massimo’s hips stopped, as if waiting for me to say something.
“Fuck me, don Massimo,” I said, my arms wrapping around his neck.
I didn’t have to say it twice. His body burst into motion, pumping like a machine gun. He fucked me fast and hard—just the way we both liked it.
After a while, the Man in Black stopped, put his hands around me, and rolled me over before sliding his dick back in and going back to his wild ride.
I could feel him getting close, but he couldn’t decide how and when he wanted to come.
Another instant later, he slid out and rolled me back to my initial position. His hand groped around the nightstand. He found the remote and turned the lights on, bathing the bedroom in a delicate light. With his knees, he spread my thighs and slowly slid back into my wet pussy, his gaze never leaving my face. He leaned over and lowered himself, clinging to me, his lips hovering just a few inches above mine. I could see his eyes glazing over, as a powerful shiver of ecstasy shook the Man in Black. His hips pumped even harder, slamming into me, and his back ran with sweat. Massimo orgasmed for a long time, but his eyes never wavered. I had never seen anything as sexy in my entire life.
“I don’t want to pull it out,” he said, rasping.
I laughed and ran my fingers through his hair.
“You’re crushing our daughter.”
Massimo closed me in a viselike grip and rolled us both over. Now I was on top. With one hand, he picked up the bedcover, pulling it over my back.
“A girl?” he asked, stroking my hair.
“I’d like it to be a girl, but knowing my luck, it’ll be a boy. And I’ll never stop worrying if he follows in your steps.”
The Man in Black laughed out loud and nestled his head in the crook of my neck.
“He’ll do whatever he likes. I’ll make sure to get him everything he’d ever dream of.”
“We’ll have to talk this over one day, but let’s leave it for now.”
Massimo said nothing for a while, only tightening his embrace. Finally, he ordered, “Go to sleep now.”
I’m not sure how long I slept. When I opened my eyes, the first thing I did was grab my phone.
Goddamn it! It was noon. Who sleeps this late? I turned my head, searching for the Man in Black, but the space beside me on the bed was empty. Why wasn’t I surprised… For a while, I stayed in bed, slowly shaking off the sleep, before I got up and went to the bathroom. If Massimo was back, I needed to look my best. Better than I had for the last couple of days. But, of course, without actually revealing that I had done anything to make myself up. I wanted him to believe I woke up this pretty. I accented my eyes and brushed my newly cut hair. Then I rummaged through the wardrobe and found a pair of denim shorts, a bright sweater leaving one shoulder bare, and a pair of beige Emus. As long as I could show off my body, and it was still warm outside, I would dress however I liked.
I met Domenico in the corridor.
“Oh, hi! Have you seen Olga?”
“She woke up a moment ago. I just ordered breakfast. Or lunch, more like.”
“And Massimo?”
“He left early in the morning, but he should be back any time now. How are you feeling?”
I leaned against a door frame and smiled playfully.
“Oh, just perfect… wonderful.” Domenico raised his hand and waved me off.
“Yadda-yadda. My brother was just as bubbly. I’m asking if anything hurts. I’ve booked you another visit to the cardiologist. And a gynecologist. You should be at the clinic by three.”
“Thanks, Domenico,” I said, leaving him on my way to the garden.
The day was warm, and the sun shone through the cloud cover. Olga was sitting by the table, reading a newspaper. Passing her by, I planted a kiss on the top of her head before taking a seat in an armchair.
“What’s up, bitch?” she greeted me, sending me a glance through her shades. “What’s with the smug face? They give you the same pills I had? I totally blacked out. Only just got up. Think that doc has more of those?”
“I got something way better,” I replied, raising my brows with a meaningful smirk.
Olga took her sunglasses off and put the paper down, staring at something behind me.
“All right, tits up! Massimo’s back.” I turned in my chair and saw the Man in Black appearing through the door, making his way toward us. I felt hot all of a sudden. He wore gray pants and a graphite sweater with the collar of a white shirt sticking out from underneath. He had one hand in his pocket, while the other held a cell phon...
