Desire Me

23- 1-10

My jaw is still sitting on the floor as I stare at the sight of Enzo standing in front of me with a big bouquet of red roses.

I open my mouth to speak but Enzo cuts me off before I have the chance to yell at him.

"I'm sorry, sweetheart, I'm so very sorry."

I am taken aback by his apology, it's not his typical style, but it's not enough.

"So what, you just show up here after three days of silence?"

"You asked me to give you space." Enzo mumbles, shifting a thorn between the pad of his thumb and forefinger.

"No, I said you couldn't control me."

"Ever?" Enzo teases with a sinful smirk.

"While I'm wearing panties, no." I retort, opening the door wider to invite him in.

"I'm still mega-pissed." I warn as he kicks off his shoes.

"I know," he nods his head as he offers me the flowers, "I am ashamed of my actions towards you. I let my fears overwhelm me."

"That's not an excuse but- wait, fears?"

Turning to look at him, I tilt my head to the side with a quizzical expression. Why was he frightened for me?

"Yes, I was frightened for your safety." He admits as he flops down on the sofa and buries his head in his hands.

Sensing that we need to talk this through calmly and not yell, I move and sit next to him, resting my head on his shoulder to put him at ease.

"Talk to me."

"What you have to understand Lucy, is that I came here to be with you, but the apartment was empty. I called your phone lots and you didn't reply. I was- I was going out of my mind with what could have happened to you."

I bite my lip and realise that in that moment, Enzo's runaway mind had gotten the better of him. I'm sure he convinced himself I had been taken and sold into the sex trade or something equally terrible.

Sighing, I take his hand in mine and squeeze.

"Go on," I encourage him gently.

"And then I found the note so I went to..." he looks over at me guiltily, "tell you off."

I give him a moment to reflect as we stare at each other before he speaks again.

"I'm not good at all this. I've never felt like this before. It's like every protective instinct in my body is constantly screaming at me, so when I saw you being followed by th... that man- I was overwhelmed."

"I wasn't really angry at you," he explains, "but I took it out on you."

"Good." I smile at him, giving him some praise for the communication he had just done, "now, one last thing."

Enzo nods his head solemnly, his demeanour reminds me of a chastised child.

"I don't care how angry you are, if you ever raise your hand around me again, even to hit a wall, I am leaving you."

"I scared you?" Enzo practically whimpers as he clutches at my hand.

Deciding to be honest, I nod my head, "yes."

"God Lucy, I'm so sorry. I just- I don't- I'm not good at-"

"Enz, baby." I soothe, clutching his face between my hands, "breathe for me. I understand this is you learning and I understand that things got out of hand. I forgive you."

Enzo let's out a sigh of relief.

"But for the record I'm still pissed."

For a moment Enzo looks dejected, then I watch an idea bloom in his eyes.

"How cross are you right now on a scale from one to ten?"

Deciding to play with him, I tease "12."

He grins wickedly at me, "very well then. 12 it is."

Before I have a chance to react or question him, Enzo is on his knees in front of me, and my legs are thrown over his shoulders. In the oversized baggy T-shirt I'm wearing, I only have a pair of panties on underneath, a fact Enzo is about to become aware of.

Giggling down at him, I lift my hips so he can remove my panties. They're red, his favourite colour.

He holds them up with one finger, "can I be controlling now?" He drawls.

"God yes." I moan out as his eyes stare at my drenched core.

He slowly kisses up and down one thigh, his stubble lightly brushing against my sensitive skin, he repeats the action until I'm whimpering under him.

I try to push him with my hands but he snatches them and climbs over my body. He holds them behind my head as his free hand circles my clit.

"Keep these here." He practically growls out.

I nod my head and whimper as he changes rhythm on my clit.

"Good girl." He praises, "now you can have your reward."

His lips descend onto my drenched opening as I moan and gasp. His tongue flicks out to circle my clit as a finger pumps and strokes me to the brink of an orgasm.

He doesn't slow down, he simply increases the pressure until I collapse around him with a scream.

"That's it, good girl." He coaches as I flood his mouth with wetness.

Panting, heart bounding, I watch as Enzo places chaste kisses on both of my thighs before he lifts up the hem of my T-shirt.

I'm fully naked before him while he is still in his suit. It's an erotic power dynamic that does funny things to me insides.

"Will you fuck me in this?" I ask, circling his tie with my fist, pulling him down with it until our lips meet.

"Si," he pants, staring deeply into my eyes, "I'll bend you over a desk in it."
