UNSTOPPABLE (Siri's Saga Book 2) (12 page)

"Why was your ringer off?" He asks as I walk over to him.

"I don’t know. I didn’t think it was." I check it. "It isn’t. I didn’t get your text in the elevator and they were talking so loud, I didn’t hear it until I stepped out of the line of Italian fire." I laugh up at him. He isn’t laughing, but he doesn’t look angry either.

Antonio and Franco turn to Aurei and start speaking in English, while Elena speaks in Italian again. All of them are talking over the other. The sound is loud noise. Aurei holds my eyes and I smile as I put my hands over my ears and stop walking to him. Aurei lifts his hand to them and amazingly they all go quiet at the same time. The contrasting silence is just as loud. He holds the other one out to me and beckons me to him. "Come here, My Every Thang." He says with a soft, sexy tone.

My heart melts.
Damn! He is so fucking fine and so sweet too!
I glide over to him and put my hand in his. The warmth and tingle he gives me is there and he smiles his big, beautiful smile down on my face. I whisper. "I didn’t mean to worry you."

He leans down to my ear as he sits our hands behind his back on his butt, forcing me to invade his space. My tit brushes his ribs making him grin. "Promise to always tell me where you are." Then he leans down and places a sweet kiss on my lips.

"I promise." I answer without any breath. He has stolen it again.

He looks back now at the group of three. He addresses the problem first. "You look familiar. Do I know you? I can’t seem to recall your name." He squeezes my hand and I squeeze back.
He is so clever.

"Maximus. I am Elena Maria. Surely you remember me?" She looks truly hurt.
Ah, she is speaking English again.

He answers. "Ah, Elena. Yes. I do now. It’s been a long, long time. How have you been?" He doesn’t wait for her to answer. "Have you met Mio Bella Signorina, Siri Wright?" Now he waits for her to answer.

"I am good." She looks from him to me. "Yes. I did."

"What brings you here?" I squeeze his hand and he squeezes mine back.

"An old friend."

"Really. Who?" He smiles at her now.

"You."

"Me?" He looks surprised then he looks at Antonio and Franco. "Did you two know about this?" They shake their heads denying any involvement. Aurei asks Elena. "Do you have business you would like to discuss with me?"

Her eyes light up at the thought. "Yes." She says, hoping he is going to give her time.

"Excellent. I’ll ask Mia to take you to lunch sometime to discuss it." He smiles at her, but doesn’t address her again. Instead he turns to Antonio. "Antonio, forgive me for taking you away from your lover. Siri is obviously fine. Ciao."

Antonio smiles at everyone, then takes Elena’s arm. "Come Elena, I will escort you out. Do you need a ride? I can drop you off somewhere. You can give me your contact information for Mia and we could catch up on all the years you have been away and all the changes in our lives." He tucks her hand in his arm and although she pouts, she leaves quietly. He chats her up, being an attentive escort and I watch Aurei’s first love disappear for all the world to see walking like an old giraffe.

As soon as they are out of ear shot, Franco turns to us. "Maximus. Siri. My apologies."

I look up at Aurei. His jaw is set. He doesn’t know exactly what happened, but Elena wasn’t a surprise he should have had. I reach my hand out and touch Franco’s arm. "I was coming down to ask you for a favor and Elena was at our door when I came out. That’s all that happened. I’m sure she used a rouse to find out our room." Aurei stiffens and I release his hand and slide mine around his waist. He pulls me to him.

Franco tells us. "Rest assured, I will speak to Carlo and he will get to the bottom of it."

Aurei is frowning when he says to Franco. "I want to know who informed her."

Franco nods, then asks me. "What may I help you with?"

I laugh. "I would like a jar of peanut butter and a place to work on a dance routine."

Aurei asks me. "Peanut butter?"

"Yes. I can’t live without it!" I giggle at him.

"See what you can do on the peanut butter." He tells Franco.

"Certainly." Franco answers. "And the other?"

"I got that." I look up into his face and his beautiful green gaze. He winks at me and says. "It’s a surprise."

"I love surprises!"

He laughs and Franco looks relieved. "Come on. We don’t want to lose our reservation. I’m hungry for Italian pizza and Michael’s is famous for it." As we start down the stairs, Franco takes his phone out. As soon as we part paths, he makes a call.
I’m rest assured. He is def on it.

CHAPTER EIGHT

We check in at the restaurant and stand waiting for our table. Aurei pulls me into his embrace and says as he sticks his nose in my hair. "I was worried when you were gone. Why didn’t you wake me?"

"I apologize. I was thinking of my return routine and realized I have to have a place to dance here if I’m going to be ready. I thought I would meet Franco and ask if there is somewhere in the hotel. I intended to be back before you woke up. So tell me what the surprise is!"

"I want to show you. You’ll have to wait. What happened with Elena?"

"Nothing. I ran into her in the hall. She wanted to see you. I told her no. We came down to see Franco together. He was standing at the elevator apparently looking for me or maybe you. Then Antonio appeared out of nowhere and you emerged from the elevator, looking like thunder incarnate."

He chuckles. "Only where you are concerned."

The hostess tells us our table is ready and we follow her in. Aurei holds my chair for me. He positions me facing the kitchen and himself facing the entrance. I notice her watching Aurei’s ass as he leans over to push the chair and I don’t think anything unusual about it.
I would stare too at that perfect fucking muscle on display. Would?
I grin at her.
Hell.... Do.
But then she continues to stare after he goes to take his seat and I realize she’s staring now at my tits.
Maybe she’s bi.
I smile at Aurei and decide to ignore her. Aurei orders us two dark beers and she hands him the menu, smiling at him, then she takes off.

"You do drink dark beer, don’t you?" He asks a little put off.

"Yes, but not too often. I don’t like the bloated tummy it gives me."

"There is so much to learn about each other." He shakes his head.

"It’s a little overwhelming, isn’t it?"

"Lucky for you, I have this steel trap." He taps his head.

"So I was told that first day." I giggle. I look over Aurei’s shoulder at the hostess who is standing in the back of the restaurant, pointing our table out to a huge, African American male. He starts towards us and the closer he gets the bigger he looks.
He is huge!

"What’s wrong?" Aurei asks as he turns to see what I’m staring at. He stands quickly and positions himself between me and this monster of a man. When the giant gets a few tables away, he stops, waves his hand for Aurei to step aside, but Aurei doesn’t. He stands firm, so the big man leans over sideways, then he bursts into a big grin. It lights up the room and Aurei looks confused from him to me.

I shrug. "I don’t know either."

The big man burst into a deep rumbling laugh. "Well, I’ll be damned!" Then he lifts his right arm, bends it at the elbow, then straightens it at me, several times.

I’m floored, but I automatically return his Tomahawk Chop and say. "Go Noles!"

He walks up, holds his hand out to shake and introduces himself as Henry, the Chef. "I’m a graduate of Florida State University, Class of 1995. What a small world sometimes." He tells us. "When Rita came in and told me she recognized my school on a shirt, I had to come see for myself." He stays to chit chat for just a few moments, takes our order and laughs when we tell him pizza. He promises to give us an Italian pizza American style with everything on it. "If I had a little Gator tail, I’d add it too but I don’t." He winks at me and we laugh, then he returns to the kitchen.

During our meal, I tell Aurei more about myself and going to school at FSU. When we finish eating, we leave to discover Angelo waiting in the lobby for us. I watch as they hug, then Aurei whisks me away immediately to the car where it is warm. It’s a Maserati Quattroporte.
Very nice ride!
When Angelo climbs in, he introduces himself quickly and starts the tour as soon as he faces forward. He’s a 'big talker' and for the next few hours, he entertains us with the history and stories of the Eternal City. We ride all over Rome and my nose stays glued to the window. I can feel Aurei’s hand running up my back, around my ass, then back down. I slide under his arm and snuggle between sights then my nose is right back on the window.

When we return to the hotel, it is late and very cold. Angelo pulls up to the curb but doesn’t get out. I thank him for the fantastic tour as Aurei slides out and holds the door for me. "I can’t thank you enough. It was unbelievable! You are so knowledgeable!" I lean up over the seat to give him a kiss on his cheek. Aurei sticks his head in and laughs. "Hurry up, Sweet Thang. It’s cold out here."

"Yes sir." I giggle as I slide out. "Thanks Angelo. See ya!" Aurei sticks his head back in and has a conversation with Angelo. I look to see that the doorman is holding the door open for me, but I wait for Aurei. Immediately I begin to shiver and start jumping up and down to stay warm. When Aurei closes the car door and turns around to see me still there, he grabs my hand and drags me running behind him to the entrance. The doorman is still holding the door open when we approach. We hurry through the lobby and up the stairs all the way to the elevator without stopping. I’m giggling and shivering while we wait on it to arrive. Aurei rubs my arms up and down, creating warmth with friction, and I start bouncing up and down to help. His eyes watch my tits flowing up, dropping down, returning, then repeating and they get hooded, but his voice stays playful. "I can see your beautiful hard tits pushing against your bra right now."

"Really?" I ask as I stop bouncing and look. "No, you can’t." I swat at him.

He laughs and wraps me in his arms. "I can, because I know they are and I know what they look like. Beautiful. Round. Hard. Pushing out. Wanting me to taste them." When the elevator arrives, his words have warmed me and I stand looking out from his embrace watching as twenty people file past. I hear Angelo’s words about their ancient history and culture and see them in a whole different light. These people are Romans. Descendants perhaps from the leaders of the first democratic statesman, or from Roman soldiers, warriors who fought fearless on the field of battle for the Roman Empire, or from Gladiators, foreign warriors or slaves forced to fight.

Several other couples join us waiting and when the elevator is empty, Aurei pushes me forward not releasing me from his embrace. I can feel his erection pressing into my butt as he maneuvers us to the back corner where he traps me under his big wing span and the wall. I turn to face him and see a sexy smile on this face. I smile back knowing he won’t touch me in here with all these people around but knowing he wants to. We wait quietly and patiently as the elevator fills. A man by the panel box asks a question. Several people answer with one word answers and the man pushes buttons selecting the floors. As the elevator rises, Aurei’s seduction begins. He leans his head down to my hair and breathes deep then blows his breath out on my ear. He whispers in it. "Ah, you smell delicious enough to eat." My tits push against my bra, scratch against the fabric sending my clit a wake up call. It is tender from the spanking it received and I shift my weight so it won’t rub against the seam of my jeans. I inhale the essence of Aurei and blow my breath as if exhaling cigarette smoke onto his neck. He grins. "I think I might have a midnight snack later. Something warm and wet to hold me over until breakfast."

My eyes are glued to him, but like a blind person tuned into my surroundings, I sense rather than see the others around us. No one appears to be the least concerned with the seduction occurring in the corner. He presses his erection closer and my hands come up to touch his chest. They lay on his soft but hard pecs and I dig the tips in like a cat who is purring. My fingers are cold and even through his shirt, his skin feels like fire. My pussy lurches at the thought of his hot body pressed against mine under the covers of the bed tonight, then waking to his mouth having me for dessert. I feel his heart beating against my palm and I imagine his tongue as it flicks my clit to that spanking rhythm. I savor this flash of a fucking fantasy and I hear a hum escape my own throat. I look up to see Aurei smiling down on me. His lips parting and sliding up, over his white even teeth. His tongue touches the corner of his mouth. I close my eyes and I feel his face closing in on mine. First in the muscles against my hand, then in the heat of his skin on my face. Next, the slight change in the displaced air, then on the small white hairs on my face. I hear his lips moving as his smile turns into a kiss and I lift my lips to receive it. He places his warm, wet, soft and firm kiss on my nose. I hear him hum then say. "Your nose is cold, Sweet Thang." He pulls me into his embrace and hugs me tight to him. He whispers in my ear and the sound is sexy and seductive. "The first thing we shop for tomorrow is a nice warm coat for you."

The elevator stops and someone announces what floor we are on. Several people exit and the remaining shift around us. Aurei gently spins us so he can lean against the back wall and hold me between his legs. He slides down so our faces are even. I stare into the eyes of the man of my dreams. "Sounds good. I don’t like being cold." I bury my cold nose in the warmth of his neck.

"I don’t like you cold either." He rubs his hands up and down my body to warm me as the elevator moves again. "The next stop is ours." He kisses my hair and pushes against the wall with his legs to stand. His back slides up. His arms stay around me and my face moves to his pecs. I lay my face there and hear his heart beating. I look at the other occupants. Only one is looking my way.
She looks to be 2
. She is sitting in the arms of her father with her face laying on his pecs too. I smile at her and she smiles back then buries her face in her daddy’s chest. Her father kisses her hair.

The elevator arrives on our floor and as the doors open, Aurei takes my hand, cinching it, and leads me out. He drapes his arm around my shoulders as we walk down the hall to our room and I hug him. As we approach our door, I notice the door on the suite adjacent to ours is pulled open a few inches. It’s the suite that shares the wall we slammed as we fucked. I don’t say anything to Aurei.
He’s pretty observant. I’m sure he noticed too.
I can feel their eyes on us. Not acknowledging them, makes my skin crawl. Letting them be creepers just isn’t my style. I choose to make people face their sexuality and mine.
They must have been in the room and heard everything.
My mind goes to poor TD having to listen to Mandy and Charlie fucking in the adjacent office and how horny it made him.
Well, I hope it spiced up your life like it spiced up his.

As Aurei opens the door for me, I turn to look at the people hiding in the shadow of the cracked door.
No point letting a good show go to waste.
I wave at them and blow them a kiss. The door closes quickly and I giggle. Aurei shakes his head as I pass through into our room. "You’re a Naughty Thang."

"Yes, I’m afraid I am. I can’t stand creepers and those people unwilling to face the truth about their own sexuality. I can’t stand people unwilling to come out of the closet. Why would you intentionally stay there? I just don't get it. We are who we are. Why would you try to deny that?" I ask the question in a rhetorical way, not really expecting an answer as I turn to face him.

He shakes his head. "Your attitude is so refreshing."

I put my hands on my hips. "My philosophy is simple. You can take me or leave me, but you won’t deny me. I am who I am."

"That’s for damn sure." He says as he bolts the door closed. "I’m thankful your mind is so open. It makes me hopeful." He takes my hand and walks me to the bedroom.

"Why?" I ask as I follow after him.

"Facing the truth about one’s sexuality isn’t always easy to face, especially when you realize you are unique. No one else shares your truth. What should be a blessing becomes a curse."

"You should be who you should be too." I stop walking and pull his hand back to me. He stops and turns around. I walk into his embrace and say. "You are not cursed. You are blessed."

"Hmm. You don’t know me yet."

"You keep saying that, but I don’t see any evidence to suggest you have any issues. I’ve been around some pretty uptight and sexually challenged individuals. I’ve become quite a guru at figuring out people’s problems and helping them work through them. And frankly, Aurei, I don’t believe you have any issues to work through. You seem to be a high functioning sexually active male. That’s exactly what you are supposed to be."

He backs up towards the bed and I follow. When we are next to it, he puts his hands on either side of my face, and looks me in the eye. I see the dominate man return and I hear it in his voice as he commands me. "Go in the bathroom. Get ready for bed. Come back out naked. Lie down flat on your stomach."

"Why?"

"Don’t argue."

"I’m not. I don’t understand that’s all. You’re ... firm now with me. I’m confused. I don’t know why?" I frown at him.

He kisses my forehead. "We will talk later about my high functioning sexuality. Right now, I need to examine you. If the neighbors heard us enough to wait for us to come back to see who we are, then I need to examine your body for bruises. I can’t have you trying on clothes tomorrow, black and blue."

"Oh! We’ll continue that discussion later then." I wink at him then sashay into the bathroom. I hear him chuckle and sit on the bed. I hear his shoes fall to the floor as I close the door. I quickly get ready for bed as instructed. I brush my teeth and strip, then I look into the mirror at myself.
I can’t see any marks, but we did fuck hard against the wall.
I lean my neck over too to see if there are choke marks. "Geez that would be bad! It was so fucking good! I would hate it if he told me we couldn’t do it again."
