"Don't let it go to your head."

"Too late." My mouth grazes her ear. "It went somewhere else entirely."

Her fingers curl into my hair. "Dante."

"Wife."

"How long do we have to stay?"

"I'm Dante Di Zaro. I can do whatever I want."

"Then take me home," she says.

I lead her off the floor and out the front door without saying goodbye to anyone.

DANTE

The plan was to get to the car before I started kissing her.

That plan lasts about four seconds.

We barely make it to the parking garage, let alone to the car where Deno is waiting.

I kiss her throughout the car ride home. I kiss her during the elevator ride up to the penthouse.

Then I kiss her all the way to the bedroom where I slowly remove her dress.

After removing my clothes, I kiss her again.

I pull her against me, and the soft sound she makes against my lips sends a bolt of electricity straight down my spine.

But then I slow the kiss down.

I don't want this to be the library. The library was hunger and fury, weeks of confusing desire detonating all at once. It was fucking. Two people colliding because they couldn't stand not fucking each other for one more second.

But this is something else entirely.

I pull back and cup her face in both hands, and she looks up at me with glazed eyes.

"I want you slow tonight," I say. “I want to savor every second I make love to you.”

Her whole body softens against me.

"I like the sound of that," she whispers.

I exhale, and it comes out ragged and rough because I want this so badly.

I lower her onto the bed, and she lies back, her hair fanning across the pillow in golden waves. She looks up at me as I crawl over her, those big eyes following every move, her breath quickening.

Every cell in my body is screaming at me to rush. To bury myself in her tight pussy and lose myself the way I did in the library last night. It takes everything not to.

Instead, I settle between her legs, kiss her again, and take my goddamn time.

My cock presses against her drenched pussy, and she squirms beneath me, trying to line herself up.

"Squirm all you want. I've thought about this moment too many times to rush it now. And, baby, I'm a very patient man."
