Ruthless

Seven

After Adriana straightens my hair, she forces a classy jumpsuit and a pair of black stilettos onto me while she stayed in her loose tee.

"Why don't you have to dress up?" I look up towards her while strapping on my shoes. She grins at me and giggles," I don't have to impress my own brother, sciocco." (Silly)

"Ugh, fine." I roll my eyes and stood up.

By the time I was done getting ready-with Adriana helping me apply light makeup- its had been an hour already, yet there was still no sign of Salvatore.

"I thought you said he would be in two an hour ago?" I ask, raising an eyebrow at her. She smiles and gently pats my back," pazienza." ( Patience)

My heart was accelerating pretty quickly. Its have been a while since I've seen him and I'm not afraid to admit that I've missed him. He is my mate after all.

I took a deep breath and wiped my clammy hands on a hand towel. Taking one final look in the mirror, I brushed a few strands of hair away from my face and my bell rang.

Adriana runs towards the doors and flung it open. The smell of lavender instantly hits me. I took a generous amount of the scent, breathing in my mate's lovely scent that smoothed my nerves. Standing at the door was a very angry looking Salvatore. His piecing eyes glared at me and I knew why, but he was still extremely good looking nonetheless.

"I'll leave you two," Adriana offers a weak smile towards me and quickly scurries off towards her apartment, closing the door behind her.

"You will never run from me ever again, you understand?" Salvatore growls lowly and all it took for him was two long strides to get to me. His tone did not scare me but I did not dare to talk back either.

I nodded my head shyly but all the air was knocked out from my lungs when I was pushed up against a wall, because it caught me off guard. He harshly presses his lips against mine and kissed me hungrily. It wasn't quite passionate but it was very needy and it held a lot of possessiveness. I won't lie, it was such a turn on.

I didn't respond at first but slowly melted into the kiss with him. I haven't kissed a lot of people in my life so I wasn't quite sure if I was doing it right. When he swipes his tongue over my bottom lip, I involuntarily let out a moan but I refused to grant him access.

His arms found my ass and tightly grabbed it, making me gasp and open my mouth. He took this opportunity to let his tongue explore my mouth.

Even if I always took dominance over everything I did, I didn't fight this one, and let he take over. When my arms found its way to his hair, I pulled on it earning a low grunt from him, which excited Olivia. I tightly clench my thighs together as I slowly pulled apart from him, both of us panting slightly. His thumb gently tracing over my bottom lip, leaving tingles and sparks dancing over my skin.

"I can smell your arousal, gattino." He purrs into my ear and deeply breaths in my scent," I'm trying very hard not to take you right here. Your innocence is intoxicating." (Kitten)

I look back up towards his face to see that his eyes were pitch black, and it scared me. I look down to hide in embarrassment because the way he was looking at me made me feel wanted like I was special, and I never had anyone made me feel that way.

"Hey, look at me," he whispers and lifts my chin up to look back at him. "What's wrong?"

I shook my head and smiled," I missed you."

For the first time I've seen, he smiles back at me too, claiming my lips once again, but this time the kiss was slow and passionate.

When we finally pulled apart from each other, he lightly kisses me on my forehead, and I never actually took him for the gentle and romantic type.

"Why did it take you so long to find me?" I ask, breaking the silence. Though my question didn't faze him like I thought it would. "I thought it would've been better if I gave you some space first."

This instantly made me fall even harder for him, he was so caring.

My big bad Alpha mate was a total teddy bear.

"Aww, that's so cute," I gushed and giggled like a high school girl trying to get her crush.

"I'm not cute, sweetheart," he growls and narrows his eyes.

"Yes, you are." I tease him again and poke his nose, making him scrunch his nose adorably and roll his eyes.

"Let's go, we've got dinner plans." He says and scoopes me up bridal style. Tingles and sparks rolled off like waves from his hands onto my body.My eyes widen and I bite down on my bottom lip hard to prevent a moan from escaping.

"Put me down!" I yell while struggling," I'm not five."

He chuckles and continues to ignore me. Little did I know, I would soon miss that deep and sexy sound.
