I shoved my face further into the fluffy pillow to avoid the blinding sun from piercing through my lids. Shifting my head to the opposite direction, I groaned and slowly fluttered my eyes open to find myself looking at an abstract painting mounted on the taupe wall. The strands of my disheveled morning hair were pushed back by my fingers as I stretched and absorbed my surroundings.
A gravelly colored sheet laid on my naked body, barely covering my breasts that hung out like they were on a bloody picnic. Immediately, I covered myself and sat up against the headboard, clutching the sheets to my chest. In search for my clothes, I leapt out of the humongous bed with the sheets wrapped around me, hiding my nakedness.
Once again, the sun struck my eyes through the window, luring me to it. Gluing my feet to the cold marble, I stood in complete awe of the view. The most clearest water I had ever seen in New York glistened in the burning sunlight that rode the light waves, dampening the sand on the beach. The urge to jump into that same water told me to rush off stupidly towards it, but skinny dipping is not on the list today.
Turning back around, I strode away from the window and towards one of the doors in the far corner. A huge walk-in closet was placed on the other side. Nice polished shoes occupied the intricate wooden racks covering one wall entirely while suits captured another one. The third wall consisted of two large glass cabinets with multiple drawers beneath it in columns of two. A huge mirror was plastered on the half of the last wall while the other half was a built-in dresser that had a set of drawers below another mirror that laid above.
My fingertips feathered across the smooth, polished wooden drawer before pulling on the cold silver handle to reveal expensive watches tucked into small cushioned compartments. Each one had a unique precise cut and style to it. Some had little diamond embedded into them while others had rare stones etched onto them.
I turned around and walked to one of the cabinets. Opening it, I found multitudes of shirts hanging nicely behind one another with little beams of light brightening up the cupboard. I whipped one out and wrapped myself in it, dropping the sheets to the floor. Walking out of the closet, I wobbled towards the other door in the room with notable soreness between my legs.
Creaking it open, my eyes are met with a bright bathroom. Sleek white tiles laced the floor and white paint on the wall ricocheted the sun rays that swam in through the huge glass pane. A tub large enough to fit ten people sat lavishly under the window while glass encased a large shower in the corner.
Leisurely, I walked to the long granite counter and gawked at my disheveled appearance. A bird's nest sat upon my head while my smudged gel liner made me look like a drunk raccoon. I rolled up the sleeves to the huge shirt that landed right below my mid thighs. My eyes wandered down to my neck that had something red etched on it. Slightly tugging the shirt away, I reveal hickeys that trailed down my collar bone. A sudden warm pool began to drown my lady while my cheeks decided to burn just by reminiscing about the best night of my life. I opened up the buttons to discover more love bites planted down my midriff and around my fully aroused nipples.
My heart started to thud even faster while those memories nonchalantly flowed back in. The way his lips kissed every inch and every crevice of my body just made me love him even more. Is it possible to love a man more every single day? Because it felt like I fell in love with Leo Bonferroni all over again last night. Thinking about him just bursted a new set of butterflies in my belly, melting me right where I stood.
My hands gripped the counter until they turned ghostly while I avoided my knees to buckle under me and drop me to the floor. Quickly buttoning up a few buttons to the shirt, I began my search for a brush. Luckily, I found one completely encased in its package in the first drawer that I opened. After finishing my teeth cleaning, I pulled my messy hair up into a loose bun to wash my face.
My body stiffened when I sensed someone standing behind me. Keeping my cool, I continued to wash my face for another second before bringing my elbow to the intruder's face, but that person was too damn fast as he grabbed my arm and pinned it to my back.
"Too slow, Mia Regina," he whispered huskily into my ear. "We need to work on your moves."
"Asshole!" I cocked my head back and laid it against his chest, letting out a relieved breath while my hair broke loose from my bun. "Not funny."
"What?" He laughed and placed a peck on my temple. "I was just admiring my queen."
"You scared me," I twisted my hand away from his grip and turned around to face him.
"Love, trust me, no one can infiltrate my property, so you never have to worry when you're with me." His palms found my back and pulled me closer into his chest while he planted a kiss on my forehead. "Don't you look ravishing in this?"
His eyes scanned my body that was lazily covered under his shirt as my cheeks began to burn even more under his hungry gaze. "I had nothing else to wear." I swallowed hard and nuzzled my face into his chest while he let out a little chuckle.
Lifting my head with his hands, he swiped my hair back. "You're blushing."
"And so are you." Smiling up at him, I brushed our noses together and closed my eyes.
"Like I said yesterday," he elevated my head up, compelling me to drown into those two blue pools, "no one has ever made me feel like this." He bit his lip and looked down, absorbing my body that laid beneath a thin piece of cloth. "And you look quite tempting."
Smirking, I inched closer to his lips leaving only room for our breaths to escape. "You look quite tempting yourself in that suit," I whispered and licked his lips. "Too damn tempting."
His throat let out a growl from deep within. "Love, don't do that."
"Do what?" Flashing him with puppy dog eyes, I smiled innocently. "This?" I took his lower lip between my teeth and tugged on it with a little force.
Moaning, his eyes go dark in less than a second before pushing my back against the counter with his hands brushing through my hair, grabbing them tight and urging a low moan to slither out my mouth. "You're testing me, Mia Regina. I might have to take you on right here, right now."
My lips curled up while a sudden jolt of excitement rushed up my body, making my heart almost jump out of my chest. "Who's stopping you?"
