I stood outside Reyna's door, debating if I should enter or not. I had never given her a time to be ready, but I considered the fact that she hadn't eaten and wanted to inform her that we were leaving as soon as possible.

As soon as I placed my hand on the doorknob, it quickly opened, revealing Little Red in all her elegance. The dress fit her just like I knew it would. The fullness of her breasts—so plump—crept out the v-neck of her dress. Her long, tan leg appeared from the slit of the skin-tight fabric, and her heels were my favorite part as it brought of the definition of her leg.

Everything about her looked ravishing. I looked away from her body and noticed the bone-straight look her hair held. It went well with her liner and full nude lips.

"Sei bellissima," I complimented. Her lips grew into a smile as a glint sparkled in the brown of her eyes.

"Sei bello," she returned.

I watched her hand travel up to the top of my suit where she lightly dusted something off of it. I couldn't help but follow her every moment as she let her hand fall back down to her side.

"Say something else," I ordered, grabbing ahold of her hand and placing it back on my chest. She looked into my eyes before darting a glance to my lips. Her fist clenched around my suit jacket before she slowly let go.

"What?" she wondered innocently.

"In Italian... say something else," I repeated.

"Qualcos'altro." She giggled.

I could feel my dick twitching at the sound of her words. If it weren't for the evening I had planned for us, nothing could've stopped me from grabbing her and taking her as many times as I wanted. I'm sure she could see it in my face because all her playfulness flew out the window. Her face began to replicate my own, darkening at every sinful thought, and her gaze was continuously battling for my lips and my eyes.

I wrapped my arm around her waist and pulled her in closer. Planting a kiss on the corner of her lips, I let my hand roam lower down her body from her waist to her ass where I gripped as much of one cheek as I could.

She wrapped her arms around my neck and pulled my face closer to her own where she pressed her lips against mine. I responded hungrily, pushing her against the well, allowing my erection to grow with each caress of her lips. My hand crept into the slit of her dress where I gripped her leg and hooked it around my waist.

She moaned at the feel of my hardening cock as I ground against her. Reyna tossed her head back in pleasure as I moved from her lips to her neck.

"I can't fucking resist you. From the start, I've never been able to resist you," I whispered.

She moaned at my words, and as troubling as it was, I placed her leg back on the ground and pulled myself away from her. Her scent was like a drug, constantly gripping me by my neck and pulling me in like some fiend. If I wanted to survive the night, I had to put some distance between the two of us. Otherwise, I would tear that expensive ass dress off of her and never let her put on a single article of clothing ever again.

"I came to see if you were ready," I said.

She didn't respond. She was too busy fixing her lipstick that had smeared as well as her dress that had gotten pushed too far up.

Once she felt she looked presentable enough, she turned to me.

"I am," was all she said.

"Come. I have something planned for us," I told her, holding out my hand. Her smaller hand grasped onto mine as I lead her out of the house. Together, we made our way to my car where I guided her into the vehicle.

***

We arrived at the restaurant just in time for our reservation. The moment we walked in, the class and wealth poured out from the building and onto every person walking in. The chatter was almost quiet and the sounds of soft classical music dominated the restaurant. There was a huge waterfall in the middle of the building that reflected the warm light from the ceiling. The tables were small, a white table cloth draped on top of them. The seats were brown and plush. There was a candle on each table that only added to the romantic appeal of the entire restaurant.

"Saint Venturi and Reyna Fields, no?" the host asked. After a curt nod, he walked us to our table with two menus in his hand.

Our table was more desitnated near the waterfall, something I knew Reyna would appreciate.

The moment we arrived at our table, the host gave us one last nod before sitting our menus down and walking away.

I helped Reyna into her chair before getting into my own. Sitting right in front of her with the faint glow of the candle bouncing off her face, I was able to take in her unique beauty and actually love every feature of hers.

"You're staring. Stop." Reyna rolled her eyes dramatically, picking up the menu from the table and holding it up in front of her.

I chuckled. "I was only staring at how hideous you are."

She sat her menu down with force as she narrowed her eyes at me. A smile came across my face.

"That's very mature, Santino. You know, you don't always have to be such an asshole," she said almost angrily.

When I didn't give her the reaction she wanted, she lifted her menu up again.

I sat back in my chair, rubbing the pad of my thumb against the lining of my lower lip as I continued to look at her.

"Here I was thinking that you'd actually do something romantic for once. It seemed like you were changing, but I guess not. So, why did you really bring me here? You know, I'm honestly not surprised, Santino. I didn't think—"

"You asked me what was next for you... for us..." I cut off her rambling. At the seriousness of my tone, she placed her menu back down to meet my eye.

Her brow rose and she began to lean in closer.

"What if I told you that..." I paused. "It's nice having you here."

She didn't say anything, just continued to look at me as if she was waiting for me to continue. I wasn't good at the sappy bullshit so I really didn't have much else to say. I could only hope she understood me even through so little words.

"So?" she asked.

"So, before you came, I was numb. I was alone, and I was miserable, and I was numb. Now, it's like I'm feeling everything I haven't felt before and it's not because of drinking or drugs—it's because of you, my Angel, my Little Hacker, my Little Red. I didn't understand it all until you were taken from me that day. It was then that I realized life was too short to be pretending like I hate you and like I don't actually have thoughts of marrying you, getting you pregnant, having a family, doing all this shit I never thought I'd ever want to do with anyone. The truth is, I love you, Reyna. And I tried to tell myself for so long that I didn't, but I do. I know I do," I confessed.

She opened her mouth to speak, but then closed it. Her eyes began to get glassy. I watched her get up, walk around the table and perch herself onto my lap. Before I could process what was happening, she placed her hands on my cheeks and brought me in for a kiss.

"I love you, too, Santino." She smiled.

"Good evening! My name is Nick, and I will be your server for today. What can I get you to drink?" A man greeted.

Reyna immediately stood up out of embarrassment.

"We'll take a glass of your finest champagne," I started, resisting the urge to drag Reyna right back down into my lap.

Nick nodded his head, walking off to get our drinks. Reyna quickly walked back over to her side of the table to sit down with rosy cheeks.

"You get so embarrassed so easily," I pointed out.

She gave me a deadpanned look.

"Well, I was in your lap, kissing you at this very fine restaurant. I didn't think about how many people would see," she muttered.

I couldn't help but chuckle. "I wanted to talk to you about something. We might as well get this out the way so we can enjoy the rest of our evening," I began. She folded her hands under her chin as she waited for me to finish talking.

As I looked at her, I couldn't find it in my heart to tell her that Leo had passed away. She was too happy, her skin was glowing, and her smile was growing by the second. The news of his death would ruin her entire night. So, I decided the morning would be a better time. She deserved to be happy and to have her mind be in tranquility even if it only were to last a few more hours. She deserved it.

"Never mind. It can wait," I said.

The server returned with a bottle of champagne that he popped open for the both of us. The smoke dispersed from the bottle as he held a glass up to the tip and began to pour the liquid into a glass. First, he gave the full glass to Reyna before giving another to me.

"Are you sure?" she whispered to me.

"I'm sure."

"What can I get you both to eat?" the server asked.

After we told him our order, we spent the entire dinner laughing and talking. For the first time it felt like we were our most genuine selves. It was nice to finally have someone to laugh with and talk for hours to without ever even having to think. There was no judgment—just a beautiful time that I wanted to last forever.

Reyna had drank about two or three glasses of champagne. She was a bit tipsy.

She had eaten most of her food before getting full, and I found it quite enjoyable just watching her. Once she was done and tired of the restaurant, she grabbed my hand and walked me outside. A hunger took over her loins as she pulled me in by my tie and kissed me.

Her arms curled around my neck as she lightly pushed her tongue past my lips. I wanted to spank her for being so naughty in the parking lot. I needed to bury my cock so deep inside of her. Fuck, I needed Reyna more than I ever needed anyone in my entire life.

Before things could get too heated, I backed away from her.

"Let's wait until we get home. Don't forget about that surprise I have for you," I said, smirking mischievously. She was out of breath, and so caught up in her own desires.

Reyna groaned in frustration as she walked around my car and got in.

"You'll like it." I smiled.

"You have such a pretty smile. You should smile more," she told me. I put the key into the ignition and turned my car on. The classic roar of my engine vibrated through us.

Just before taking off, I turned to Reyna and planted a kiss on her cheek followed by another and another.

"You ready for some fun?" I whispered in her ear.
