  “What kind of offer?”

  * * *

  “Protection.”

  * * *

  Eve scoffed, “Protection? And what on earth do I need protection from?”

  * * *

  Nico grinned. From the moment he’d met her and she’d lied right to his face, he’d known she was a spitfire. Now, he was getting a chance to see whether Eve was just spunky, or foolish too.

  * * *

  “You and I both know that you might have put yourself in a very uncomfortable position. I’m offering you protection.”

  * * *

  “Giuseppe offered to protect you?” Nico grinned from ear to ear.

  * * *

  “What’s so funny? He warned me against you too you know?”

  * * *

  Nico didn’t stop grinning. It was the first time since she’d met him that Eve felt genuinely unnerved by him.

  * * *

  “You don’t have to trust me Eve. I’ll leave if you want me to. But I feel compelled to make you an offer. You know as well as I do that there are people in this town willing to do unspeakable things to get their way.”

  * * *

  “Aren’t you one of them?” Eve snapped.

  * * *

  “No,” Nico replied. He looked away for a moment. Eve could have sworn she detected a hint of sadness in his eyes.

  * * *

  But then he snapped back to her and the sadness was gone.

  * * *

  Nico continued, “I’m simply trying to be a gentleman. I don’t want you to get caught up in the middle of this, Eve.”

  * * *

  She’d never heard him use her name before. When he said it, his lips struggled to imitate Eve’s American accent. As her name spilled out of his mouth, Eve witnessed a rare moment of vulnerability in Nico that she’d never seen before.

  * * *

  “I’m already caught up in the middle of this.”

  * * *

  “I don’t want you to get hurt. From the moment I saw your face in the candy store, I knew that you meant something to the world. Just let me take care of you.”

  * * *

  “And what is it exactly you want in exchange?”

  * * *

  “Nothing.”

  * * *

  Nico continued, “My cousin, Giuseppe is looking for him. You know this. I can’t say what he wants with the boy exactly but I can say it isn’t good.”

  * * *

  “Great. And I’ve gone and thrust myself right into the middle of it.”

  * * *

  “An accident for which I’m grateful.”

  * * *

  Nico stood up and took Eve’s hand in his own. She looked into his icy blue eyes and saw lust for the first time. Nico kissed her hand and electricity surged from his lips into her skin. Goose flesh broke out the moment his lips pressed against hers. Eve looked up and Nico flashed her a half smile.

  * * *

  “Let me protect you.”

  * * *

  “Why don’t we wait and see if I need protecting.”

  * * *

  “Fair enough,” Nico replied.

  * * *

  He took a pen and a piece of paper out of his pocket and wrote down a phone number.

  * * *

  “If you are ever in trouble, call this number. No one else has it except you.”

  * * *

  Eve stood up, thinking that it was about time she led Nico to the door. While she feared Giuseppe, she didn’t exactly trust Nico either. He’d proven that he was allied with the teenage boy she’d saved, but that didn’t mean she trusted him completely either.

  * * *

  Eve made her way towards the door, folding up the piece of paper and slipping it into the back pocket of her jeans.

  * * *

  “Thank you Nico.”

  * * *

  She opened the door, hinting that Nico should leave. Eve had to admit to herself that a part of her wanted to beg him to stay, wanted to beg him to protect her. But she couldn’t.

  * * *

  He walked out her door and stood on her steps for a moment, looking up at her lips. Nico noted how plump and perfect they were. He noted how his eyes were drawn to them even when she wasn’t wearing a lick of makeup. Eve noticed him staring but knew that it would be inappropriate to kiss him.

  * * *

  Why am I even thinking about kissing him? She wondered.

  * * *

  “Bye.”

  * * *

  Eve closed the door quickly before she could make a foolish decision. She took the number out of her back pocket and read his number, memorizing it quickly. She had a feeling that storing it in her phone wouldn’t be the best option. Eve’s evening wound down quickly.

  * * *

  She made her mushroom sauté and ate it. She cleaned her kitchen from top to bottom and she briefly considered checking out her shop, making sure that everything was okay. She imagined the local kids were probably disappointed that they couldn’t get treats after school — if any of them were allowed to take detours anymore.

  * * *

  Darkness descended on Eve’s home. She found herself checking the latches over and over again. She kept her windows closed and she paced around her house in between reading excerpts from the latest magazine she’d had delivered. Eve had never gotten around to actually retrieving her mail and she didn’t plan on it.

  * * *

  Eve sat on her couch and her eyes fluttered shut. She was losing her ability to stay awake. Tonight was just one of those nights when ascending the stairs to her bedroom was out of the question. Perks to living alone. Eve’s eyes fluttered between open and shut until she swore she heard a gentle tapping on her front door.

  * * *

  Eve’s eyes snapped open.

  * * *

  The tapping turned into knocking. There was someone there. A lump rose in Eve’s throat and she tiptoed towards the door slowly, taking her time to look out the peephole.

  * * *

  It was Nico on her doorstep once again.

  * * *

  Her hands trembled as she opened the door.

  * * *

  “What are you doing here? I’m trying to go to bed.”

  * * *

  “Let me in.”

  * * *

  Eve’s heart raced.

  * * *

  “No.”

  * * *

  “Please Eve, let me in. I’m serious. I saw someone outside.”

  * * *

  Eve could feel her hand shaking still, but she could tell Nico meant no harm. His harsh tone was out of concern, not a desire to hurt her. Eve let him into the house and shut the door locking it behind her.

  * * *

  “You’re alright?” He asked, pushing hair out of Eve’s face.

  * * *

  She nodded, shocked at his sudden intimacy.

  * * *

  “Yes. I’m alright.”

  * * *

  “I saw a black SUV across the street. Come to the window,” Nico said.

  * * *

  They turned off all the lights in Eve’s home and she walked with him to the window. As they looked the SUV came alive and zoomed down the street. It wasn’t the exact SUV Eve had met Giuseppe in, but it was damned close.

  * * *

  Eve rested her head on Nico’s shoulder.

  * * *

  “Shit…”

  * * *

  “Shit is right,” Nico replied.

  * * *

  He pulled his gun out of its holster and showed it to Eve.

  * * *

  “I’m armed. No one’s going to be able to get into this house or hurt you. Let me stay the night.”

  * * *

  Eve turned towards him and looked into his eyes again. She wondered what made Nico want to protect her so badly. He could have just as easily let her become collateral damage. That’s what the mafia did, wasn’t
it? Eve realized that Nico had to be someone different. She couldn’t tell if he was a criminal or not, but she could tell that he wasn’t like the men who had held her and dragged her into their car.

  * * *

  Eve felt her desire for him mounting. He was holding a gun, standing in her house, literally putting himself on the line to protect her. No sane woman could see a sexy, tall Italian man holding a gun and not feel something. And Nico had a special something to him too. It wasn’t just his looks, or his weapons. It was the way he looked at her, the way he said the name “Eve”, the way he called her beautiful.

  * * *

  “Kiss me,” Eve whispered.

  * * *

  The gun clattered to the ground and Nico wrapped her instantly in his arms. Eve didn't know what she was doing. She didn’t know what was compelling her to throw herself at Nico. Was it his thick black hair? Were his icy eyes drawing her in? Was it the way he wanted to take care of her and protect her just when she needed someone?

  * * *

  Nico’s lips pressed against Eve’s and his arms wrapped tightly around her waist. She thrust her petite waist closer to him.

  * * *

  Nico’s soft plump lips pressed against Eve’s. She wrapped her arms around his neck and took in his powerful citrus and cloves scent. Nico smelled clean and fresh with spicy masculine undertones. He kissed her in a far gentler manner than any man had. He took his time to allow his lips to touch hers and then he tenderly pushed his tongue between her lips.

  * * *

  Eve’s tongue touched Nico’s and that surge of electricity flowed through her body again. She could already feel herself headed in a particular direction with him. And while on one level Eve knew it was wrong, heading to bed with Nico felt very very right.

  * * *

  He pulled away from her for a moment and whispered, “Are you okay with this?”

  * * *

  Eve nodded. She didn’t think she had a choice. Her heart was propelling her to accept Nico into her arms and into her bed. Her head had checked out — logic played no role in this. It was the perfect mixture of raw instincts and unfettered desire. It had been so long since she’d had contact with a man.

  * * *

  Eve touched Nico’s face as he continued to kiss her. Her hand grazed across the stubble on his face. His jaw line bristled against her palm and sent a ticklish energy flowing through Eve. She pulled away from him and he kissed her on the forehead.

  * * *

  “You are very beautiful. It’s very hard for me to stop myself right now,” Nico whispered.

  * * *

  His hot breath tickled Eve’s neck. It was just as hard for her to resist him as it was for him to resist her.

  * * *

  “Well,” Eve pulled away, “Maybe we should just… not do this.”

  * * *

  Nico’s blue eyes bore into her. She could tell that it wouldn’t be so easy for them to part ways. They were both heading in one direction at light speed.

  * * *

  “From the moment I saw you in your store… I knew I wanted you,” He said.

  * * *

  “Nico, please…”

  * * *

  “You have the most perfect skin. The most perfect hair. You’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in America.”

  * * *

  “Nico…”

  * * *

  He continued despite her pleas, “So maybe we shouldn’t fight this. Maybe we should just allow this to happen…”

  * * *

  He pulled her close again and kissed her lips hard. Eve knew that she couldn’t resist him — and that she didn’t want to resist him either. Nico squeezed her ass cheeks and pulled her close. She wriggled in his arms for a second and then kissed him back, plunging her tongue into his mouth.

  * * *

  “Just let it happen Eve…” He whispered.

  * * *

  That was the final straw. Nico’s strong Italian accent, his tall muscular frame and his perfect kisses pushed Eve over the edge. She no longer had the control that she thought she did. Eve reached down for Nico’s pants and began to undo his belt. Nico kissed her neck, but didn’t stop her from fumbling with his belt.

  * * *

  “Mmm,” He moaned as he felt her hand grazing his cock through his boxers. Eve’s hand had found her way into his pants and she could feel Nico’s dick rock hard and straining to be released from its cloth prison. Eve pulled his pants to the ground and Nico stepped out of them. She reached behind him and felt his taut ass cheeks beneath her finger tips. She felt his dick twitching and throbbing with heat, desperate to come out and play.

  * * *

  “Don’t tease me,” He said.

  * * *

  Eve was happy to oblige. She reached into Nico’s boxers and felt his cock for the first time with her bare hands. Eve gasped as she felt it. Nico smirked. It had been a long time since he’d experienced that response. He’d forgotten what it was like to be with a new woman. Most were surprised at how large his dick was; Eve was no different.

  * * *

  Nico’s dick wasn’t just long, it was thick to the point where wrapping her palm around it was difficult. Eve kept one hand on Nico’s dick and she used another to wriggle him out of his boxers. His flesh prickled as it came into contact with the cool air. Eve dropped to her knees before him and then used her hand to pump Nico’s cock for a few strokes.

  * * *

  Eve looked at Nico’s hard throbbing cock and questioned how she would fit such a massive thing into her mouth. He could see that she was hesitant.

  * * *

  “Just take your time,” Nico encouraged her.

  * * *

  His accent was so hot. And Eve didn’t want to disappoint him. She wanted this to be perfect. Mind blowing. Forbidden, but worth the time.

  * * *

  She gingerly wrapped her lips around the head of Nico’s dick. He groaned and slammed his palm into the wall as her warm mouth enclosed around the bulging head of his cock. He tried to take it slow with her. Eve sucked on just the head for a few moments, building up saliva in her mouth to make it a very wet blowjob.

  * * *

  Eve started to take Nico’s cock into her mouth deeper one inch at a time. Her mouth stretched wide to accommodate his thickness and his length. Nico grunted as Eve finally fit his entire hardness deep in the back of her throat.

  * * *

  “Mmm,” She moaned.

  * * *

  Nico’s dick grew harder. Eve began to bob her head up and down, letting her tongue slide along the length of Nico’s dick as she thrust his member in and out of her hot wet mouth.

  * * *

  Eve enjoyed the sensation of Nico’s thick cock stretching her lips out. She could feel his dick stiffen in her mouth and she hoped that he’d have enough energy in him for a second round. Eve allowed Nico to grab onto her head and push her face further down his cock.

  * * *

  She groaned as she enjoyed his thick meaty flesh plunging into her mouth. She grabbed his ass cheeks and pulled Nico in deeper. He couldn’t resist, he had to finish. Nico grunted and then released a thick load in Eve’s mouth. The first quick spurt came as a surprise, but Eve swallowed the first gush and then swallowed every last drop.

  * * *

  She pulled her mouth off of Nico’s cock slowly. He gasped sharply as she removed her face and then pulled her to her feet. Without missing a beat, Nico pressed his lips against Eve’s. He plunged his tongue down her throat and she wrapped her arms around his body. His cock twitched against her leg as he held her close.

  * * *

  Eve had the feeling that Nico had a hell of a lot more energy in him.
