By Virtue I Fall (Sins of the Fathers #3)(56)

Author:Cora Reilly

揧ou should have told me the truth and not pretended to be experienced.?

揥ho says I抦 not experienced??she asked haughtily.

I turned on the lamp on the nightstand, wanting to see the expression on her face. 揅ut the games, Anna. There was blood on my fingers.?

Her gaze moved away and the hint of a blush traveled up her throat. Anna rarely avoided eye contact. She always held my gaze no matter how furious I was. I admired that about her. She was tough and clever, cunning even, which had made me forget that she used to be a sensitive girl. She抎 learned to hide that side of her over the years. I wasn抰 quite innocent about that development.

She shrugged as if it was irrelevant. 揑抳e never been with Clifford, or Maurice, or anyone. What happened between us last night was the most I抳e ever done. I抳e always wanted it to be you who kissed me, touched me厰 She shrugged again. 揂nd I got what I wanted.?

I became very still.

揘ow you know,?she said.

揇amn it, Anna,?I growled, focusing on my anger. Anna抯 admittance wreaked havoc with my insides. 揧ou should have told me sooner.?

揑t doesn抰 change anything.?

揑t changes things.?

揑t doesn抰。 Don抰 make a big deal out of it. I抦 not. I just want some fun, and I know sleeping with you will be fun.?

揑t抯 a big deal. And we didn抰 sleep with each other and we won抰。?

Fuck, but I wanted to. I wanted to forget my duties and Anna抯, and only listen to my body. And my heart.

揥hat about fucking? That抯 what you抳e called it until now.?

揑f I take your virginity, I抦 not doing it by fucking you. Every time that follows after will be fucking.?

Did I really just suggest I pop her cherry? I should ask Anna to leave my bed and try to return to an appropriate polite distance. But when had we last managed polite distance?

揟here抣l be more than one time??Anna asked, angling her body toward me. She smelled of Yasmine and?me. This realization sealed my fate. Possessiveness and desire flooded me.

揟here won抰 even be one,?I lied, even as my body sprang to life, as I imagined making her mine at least temporarily. No other woman had ever made me feel such a myriad of emotions, and in such intensity, no less. With Anna, life was a rollercoaster ride. With her, I didn抰 miss my days as Enforcer, never felt boredom.

揧ou don抰 sound convinced,?she said.

揃ecause I抦 not,?I admitted.

揥ell, you could still fuck the French-Wench again if you don抰 like my performance.?

What the fuck was she talking about? 揑 don抰 care about your performance and from what I witnessed a few hours ago, I抎 say it抣l be outstanding, but let me make something clear, I didn抰 fuck Veronique or anyone else since we arrived in Paris.?

揥hy not??Anna asked.

I narrowed my eyes. 揇on抰 play dumb, Anna. You抮e way too clever to be convincing.?

揥hy not??she repeated more firmly this time.

揃ecause of you, fuck it. You are in my head and I can抰 get you out. I want you like I抳e never wanted anything in my life before.?

揑 like the sound of that,?she whispered, smiling slightly, and leaned closer. She peered up at me and my gaze lingered on her lips. On lips that had given me pleasure yesterday evening. Seeing her now, without makeup and smiling sweetly, I couldn抰 imagine fucking her mouth, but I knew there was another Anna. I wanted them both. Good girl Anna, and naughty Anna.

揑 want this. I want us, in this moment in time. Like I said, I抦 not bound to stay a virgin.?

揑抦 sure your parents would disagree on this.?As if it still mattered. What had already happened between Anna and me was enough to make Dante kill me. I doubted he抎 differentiate between me fucking Anna抯 mouth or her pussy. I was a dead man either way. I couldn抰 resist anymore and ran my palm over her arm and back. Anna immediately pressed into me, one hand on my chest.

揥e抮e both adults. If we want to have fun, then that抯 our business. Don抰 play noble, Santino.?

揑抦 not,?I said with a smirk. Did she really think anything about me was noble? After what had happened last night? 揃ut we抮e both not acting like responsible adults when we抮e around each other. I need to pretend to play by the rules at least. You seem to lose any sense of self-preservation around me.?

Fuck. I抎 fucked her mouth and dipped my thumb into her ass before I抎 even taken her virginity. I had a first class ticket to hell.

Anna pursed her lips. 揥hat抯 that supposed to mean??

揧ou kept up the charade of being experienced just to prove a point.?

She didn抰 say anything. I wished I knew what she was really thinking about what happened between us. She brought our faces closer. 揑 didn抰 tell you because I knew it would have reinforced your will to stay professional. You wouldn抰 have lost control if your protective streak had won out.?
