Mia’s pov A shiver coursed down my spine but i squared my shoulders and net his gaze with a neutral one. “Never planned on doing that. What’s there to run from in here?” I asked and the small grin on his face slowly stretched until he face had lowered to my height.“A lot, princess. A lot.” He whispered, voice husky and I shivered and shifted my weight from feet to feet.I made a show of glancing over the entire interior of the room before returning back to staring at him.“It’s just a room which I’ve been in a handful of times. What’s where to be scared of?” I whispered and he cocked an eyebrow before speaking, eyes dancing with what I’d term as mischief.“Is that so?”“Mhhm.”“Have you perhaps wondered what laid on the other side of that door?” He asked, eyes pointing towards a door positioned at the left part of the large bedroom. My eyes followed that angle and I swallowed emptily as I returned my gaze back to his face. I cleared my throat before starting to speak.“I- I t
Mia’s pov A smile was already dancing across my lips before I crossed my eyes open, and it only widened when all that happened the previous night slowly crashed down on me. I rolled to my side, nose sinking into the second pillow beside my head and I breathed in Lorenzo’s scent which was now clinging to the pillows. Unlike when we had just arrived whereby the entire place was completely devoid of our scents, now was the complete opposite and i reveled in it.Lorenzo was already out of bed, which isn’t surprising because he has always been an early bird since I could remember and I wasn’t sure I’ve ever woken up to him still sleeping beside me since the moment we began to sleep together in the same bed, aside that first night whereby he had come to my room after supposedly having a nightmare, and till date, we’ve never talked about that night, but it doesn’t mean I didn’t think about it every now and then.I let out a contented sigh as I rolled to my other side and tucked the b
Mia’s pov I’ve stuck trying to decide on something to wear tonight for over thirty minutes and I was yet to come to a decision. It was starting to stress me out and I hated the fact that I was getting this stressed and worked up over this, but I knew it was because I cared, and because I was actually looking forward to this.Throughout my life, I never stop to wonder if I’d ever get to go out on a date or something, because somehow, I was already aware that I’d end up getting married off for the sake of the family. It had come as a complete shock to me when Lorenzo had asked me that question three days ago. The fact that Lorenzo and I had gotten to this level, from hating each other so much to getting ready to go on a romantic date together, was certainly something I never saw coming.I contemplated on dressing in a color blue tonight because I knew it was one of Lorenzo’s favorite color and I wanted to look extremely pretty for him.He was fond of flimsy outfits, and there wa
Mia’s pov The car ride was silent, except for the soft music playing from the radio. The silence in the car wasn’t awkward in any way, and neither do I feel nervous, all I felt was curiosity or excitement.After Lorenzo and I talked out that little Tuff back at home, we decided to go to somewhere else entirely, but he made sure to remind me that we’d go to the initially place he had planned to take me to today, on some other day, and I hadn’t minded that one bit, not just because it was my fault since I had been the one to take over an hour extra while getting ready, but because the point of this date is to just do something romantic together, no matter how small or tiny it might be, it would definitely still be a date to me.Which is why I was still brimming with excitement right now.“Where are we going?” I asked as I glanced at Lorenzo he was focused on the road since it was quite busy right now. All he could spare me was a fleeting glance before facing the road again as he
Mia’s pov I took in a deep breath from the bunch of flowers which I’ve been holding against my chest since the moment it got gifted to me. It still felt like a dream, and my brain was yet to wrap around it, which is probably why I was still clutching it like it was gonna disappear any time I let go of it. If I was acting weird to Lorenzo, he didn’t point it out, or perhaps, he didn’t mind.As we were exiting the museum, one of the workers who had previously welcomed us in stepped forward and presented Lorenzo with a bunch of flowers which I assumed were already arranged by Lorenzo before hand. When he handed it to me, it felt like all the silly dreams I used to had in the past were coming true all at once.I was very aware that I wouldn’t be able to live a normal life since I was little, but that didn’t stop me from dreaming about being treated like a literal princess by a man. It was still mind blowing and maddening that, that faceless man of my dreams has turned out to be L
Mia’s pov The dinner could be described in one word.Perfection.But, that’s if that word is enough to describe it. If there’s a word that could best describe how the entire thing when, then that would be the best thing to use in describing it.It went extremely smooth, without an hitch.At a point while we were having dessert, I began to feel a little paranoid, not because something suddenly went wrong, but because everything was going too smoothly and perfectly.In this kind of world that Lorenzo and I are in, things rarely go this smoothly without us getting surrounded by bad guys. When I was still living my previous normal life, then I was used to things moving on as planned with barely anyone jumping us, except on a very few occasions. But telling from the entire time I’ve spent by Lorenzo’s side, then we’re supposed to have gotten surrounded by bad guys at one point tonight.When I brought that up to Lorenzo, he only laughed it off before pointing out that I had only a lit
Mia’s pov The ride back home was tingled with so much sexual tension, it felt like it was clinging to every little air I breathe in, which was getting me even more worked up. Lorenzo placed his hand on my thighs at a point and I almost lost my mind in the few minutes it remained there till he had to use both hands to control the car.I kept sucking in deep breaths even now and then because I seem to be running out of air in my lungs every fleeting moment. My legs were squished tightly against one another in my seat as a means to alleviate some of the throbbing pressure between my thighs.Seems like Lorenzo noticed that because at a point, he settled his large palm over my thighs, but this time, he slid his hand sideways until it slotted in the middle of my thighs, and then he parted my thighs until they wernt pressed up against each other anymore, and now that there was some space between them, the throbbing pressure multiplied at once. I let out a slow gasp as I felt his fin
Mia’s pov It was starkly obvious that he didn’t buy me response but he motioned me over with a slow grin tugging at the side of his lip. I gulped emptily and inched towards him. He leaned down and trailed a hand between the open line between my chest, down until he was lightly tracing over my belle button and by the time he retrieved his hand, I was panting.He leaned down and kissed the side of my throat, hot lips dragging down the curve until his tongue was licking over a spot which he was biting into almost immediately, completely wrecking the resistance I had planned on putting up.As the shaky, drawn out eased out of my throat, my hands reached out to grasp his shirt to keep myself from falling because expectedly, my legs were starting to tremble.He moved his lips upwards until it was hovering over my lips and then he pulled away slightly until we were staring into each other’s face. I wasn’t sure of what he saw on my face that made a wicked grin settle on his face, becau
