CHAPTER 15: Natalie could only stand there as her mind slowly processed what was happening. Giovanni was kissing her.

Giovanni was kissing her.

Her mind went blank. Giovanni pulled back his eyes crazed with lust.

"Kiss me back." He murmured roughly against her mouth and it was as if something inside of her snapped.

She smashed her lips to his and they kissed. They kissed with all the pent up passion inside the both of them and released it one hot twine of their tongues. She moaned and he grabbed her wrists to put them over her head on the wall. She gasped a breath in as he kissed her, his beautiful, cruel exploration of her mouth not stopping for one second. She kissed him back with just as much fervor, losing herself in Giovanni. How he felt, how he smelt, how he tasted. Her knees felt weak and as if sensing this he put her hands on her hips and lifted her, wrapping her legs around his waist as he pushed her hard up against the wall.

This wasn't a gentle kiss. It was a kiss full of desire, of want, of need. Giovanni's tongue moved against her own, devoured her mouth and suckled on her tongue until her muscles went to jelly. He pulled back and they were both gasping, their foreheads resting against each other's.

"See what you do to me?" he whispered and his breath fanned over her kiss-swollen red lips still wet with the evidence of their kiss. She only managed a whimper, her mind still foggy with lust. He pulled back so that he could cup her jaw in his big, rough hand.

"You are mine, mi amour. I will protect you. Always." He said softly, his voice husky and rough with passion, with sincerity.

Natalie's eyes suddenly filled with tears and she tried to push them away, but as one trickled, she found they couldn't stop.

He watched the tear fall down a flushed cheek, his eyes pained as he leaned forward and kissed where the tear had fallen. The gesture made Natalie's heart ache with the warmth that filled it. Who knew someone how had a job that Giovanni had could be so tender.

"It's not fair." She said weakly.

Giovanni nodded understandingly and pulled her into his arms, tucked her head under his chin as her body shook with silent sobs. He knew how hard she was trying to not let this get to her and he couldn't help but admire her bravery and resilience. He kissed her hair and waited until she regained herself. He knew immediately because she straightened her spine and lifted her head to stare at him eyes filled with coldness and sorrow. He knew the look all too well because he saw it every day when he looked in the mirror.

Even with red puffy eyes and damp cheeks she was breathtaking. She swallowed hard and took in a deep breath, flushing when their chests rub together causing delightful friction that had her lusting.

"I guess I should go to bed." She murmured quietly and he nodded.

She turned to leave, but before Giovanni could really register what he was doing he had gripped her forearm. Not hard, but enough to stop her.

"I...um..." he had never been the type of man to fumble over his words and he narrowed his eyes when a small smile curled Natalie's lips at his uncomfortableness.

"Sleep with me tonight." He finally managed and caught the surprise in her eyes which was quickly replaced with weariness.

"I don't know..." she started, but he cut her off before she could finish.
