I stood frozen by the wall. 

That just fucking happened, what the fuck. My eyes stayed glued to the floor as my brain went into overdrive, the sound of glass clinking broke my trance. I flicked my eyes in the direction of the sound, catching  Matteo's gaze, my breath hitched. Rolling my bottom lip into my mouth I studied him. 

He sat leaned back in his chair, legs spread with a faint smirk tainting his lips, swirling the brown liquor in the glass. Breaking eye contact his eyes shamelessly scanned over my body, taking a long sip from the glass. Looking back into my eyes he tilted his head to the side and smiled, but it wasn't a friendly smile. No, no he wanted something. Shifting my weight onto my other foot I took a deep shaky breath trying to calm myself.

He crooked his finger, "C'mere principessa." 

Widening my eyes I shook my head, breaking eye contact once more I stared at the floor. He let out a dark laugh, upon hearing that I looked up quickly. Matteo had set down his glass and was staring at me harshly. Wiping the corner of his lip with his thumb he smirked. 

"principessa, l'ultima volta controllato, non stavo cazzo chiedendo" He spoke lowly.

(Princess, last I checked, I was not fucking asking.)

Feeling my stomach drop, with my head down, I meekly shuffled in his direction. Stopping when his shoes were in sight, I shuddered when his large hand wrapped around my wrist. Looking up at him he smirked, I rolled my eyes and looked the other way. 

Suddenly I was on his lap, back against his chest, with his hand around my throat.

"Why do you insist on being so disobedient, hmm?" He asked

Clenching my thighs together I shrugged blinking rapidly. Yanking my hair back, Matteo's nose grazed my neck, I let out a whimper. With that he gave my neck a tight squeeze

"I. Want. Words. Eris." He chuckled lowly
