Dominic, page 10
“Bella, you could be in a flour sack and seduce me. You’re that beautiful and I want you every time I am around you or apart from you. You have that much power over me.”
Alyssa reached up and pulled Dom’s head down. She loved the feel of his permanent scruff against the softness of her palm and cheek. She took his lips and let out a sigh of contentment as he deepened the kiss. Breaking the kiss she looked up at him and marveled at the way he made her feel so loved. If she’d had any doubts before, she knew she was in love with Dom.
“Sit. As much as I’d like to skip dinner and go straight to dessert I worked too hard on this to let it get cold. By the way, you’re over dressed for dinner.”
Dom took the hint and stripped down to his boxer briefs and took his seat. He smiled as she served him his favorites including his favorite wine. He had truly hit the lottery with Alyssa. He watched her as she glided across the room serving them both before taking a seat across from him.
“Shit,” Alyssa said. “I forgot the important part.”
Dom watched as Alyssa lit the candles and then turned down the lights before hitting play for a little romantic dinner music. He dug into his food once Alyssa was seated across from him. He ate with gusto, not because he was trying to rush through the meal, but because the food was better than almost anything he’d ever eaten, almost as good as his mothers.
Alyssa felt like she was going to pass out as they sat at the table after eating holding hands and looking into each other’s eyes. Knowing it was now or not for a very long time she knew what she had to do.
“Dominic, I’m sorry I ran out on you this morning.” She watched as he started to speak, but she gently placed her fingers to his lips. “I need to get this out, so please let me.” Alyssa watched as Dom simply nodded. “I’ve been in love with you most of my life. I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t, but I always thought that you would only ever see me as Mia’s best friend, and then this morning I hear you telling your brother that you love me. It scared me because I was finally getting what I had always wanted, but I was a little upset that I had to hear it second hand.”
Alyssa took a deep breath before continuing, “I wondered why you could love me after such a short time and then I questioned was I really in love with you, or was it just a silly schoolgirl crush, but after a lot of carbs and thinking I came to the realization that I love you, because you see me and you take me for who I am. I love you, Dominic Gratale and I couldn’t let another day go by without telling you.”
Dom was out of his seat and kneeling beside Alyssa. He took her hands in his and looked lovingly into the emerald sea of emotions that was staring back at him. “I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you first. I’ve loved you for so long that I physically ache when you are around, but I didn’t know if you felt the same way. I love you for your fierce independence, your strength, your ability to love and most of all just for who you are. I love you, Alyssa Gambino. I have since you were sixteen and I had to fight every urge I had to take you in my arms and kiss you senseless.”
Dom kissed her softly before continuing. “You have been the light in my life for so long, but I had to wait until you were ready. Every other woman has just been a placeholder until you were ready.”
Alyssa wiped away the tears on her cheeks. She couldn’t hold back the flood of emotions she was experiencing. It was as if she was being tossed about in the waves of a tsunami. He loved her and he was all hers.
“Take me to bed and make love to me, Dominic.”
Dom stood up and gracefully picked Alyssa up carrying her towards what he hoped was her bedroom.
Alyssa was kissing Dom but stopped long enough to say, “Last door on the right.”
Dom walked in and noted how the room was bright and airy, matching Alyssa’s loving personality. He gently laid her down on the king size canopy bed. He wanted to devour her and take his time tasting every inch of her at the same time. His mom had spoken to him about the difference between sex and making love. She was a romantic at heart and wanted all her children to know that true love would change them forever.
Dom was overcome with emotions as he looked down at the one destined to be the love of his life. He leaned down and kissed each corner of her mouth before gently kissing her lips. It was soft and full of love. He could feel the difference between this and their passionate demanding kisses. While this kiss was just as passionate, it held more emotion than he had ever experienced. Dom thought his heart was going to explode from all the love he felt for this woman.
Alyssa wrapped her arms around Dom and pulled him closer. She felt the passion and love in each kiss he gave her. She loved this man. She loved him when he was just a boy, but the man was everything she had dreamed. Alyssa felt the tip of his cock probe and slide against her glistening lips. She spread her knees wider to accommodate the man she loved and moaned as he slid home. Of all the ways they had sex, this was the most intimate to her. Dom on top slowly possessing her body and soul with each powerful stroke. Her eyes brimmed with tears as the emotion of it all threatened to pull her under the turbulent waters swirling around her.
Dom had never been this deliberate with someone. His strokes were slow and deep and he couldn’t help but watch Alyssa’s eyes as he made love to her. He felt her walls tighten with each stroke and her nails dig in deeper to his biceps. Dom raised his hand, stroking her cheek as he leaned in to capture her lips. He felt her moan against him and arch up to meet each thrust. He didn’t know how much longer he could hold out. He was wrung out emotionally. He poured every ounce of love he had into making love to Alyssa.
Dom felt Alyssa crest the wave and clench down on his cock pulling him over with her. Dom collapsed on top of Alyssa. He tried to move, but she wrapped her arms around him and held him tight.
“I love your weight on top of me. It is re-assuring and it makes me feel safe.”
Dom tried to place a little more weight on his elbows. Dammit. He thought about how they forget the condom again. He knew she was on the pill, but nothing was foolproof. He wanted them to experience each other before they brought a child into this world. He smiled at the thought of her swollen belly filled with their child, and how beautiful a little girl that looked exactly like her would be.
“What has you smiling?”
“Just thinking that I am the luckiest man in the world. I’m loved by the most beautiful woman I know and I get to lay here and hold her in my arms after the most incredible sex of my life.”
“It was pretty great wasn’t it? Not bad for someone with only a weeks’ worth of experience.”
Dom laughed, “You may have only been having sex for a week, but you are the most skilled seductress I know. All you have to do is look at me, and I’d be willing to give you the world. I mean you literally took the shirt off my back this morning. Granted I wasn’t wearing it at the time, but I still would’ve given it to you if I had been.”
Alyssa smiled as she forced Dom to roll over so that she could lie on his chest. She loved the feel of his solid muscles on her skin. The last thought Alyssa had before falling asleep on his chest was this is how she wanted to end every day.
Chapter Nine
The next week passed in a blur of bliss for Dom. Even though the calendar continued its countdown on his thirty-days, he felt more confident now that they had mutually declared their love for each other. Dom didn’t see any way in which he would need to use the promise her father had made to him, but if he asked her to marry him, would she think it too soon.
Dom knew he still needed to do the right thing and ask her father’s permission to marry Alyssa. Even though he had already agreed to this arrangement, he wanted to do things in the traditional sense. Tonight, he had a special dinner planned to celebrate Alyssa ending her show contract. Dom knew she was ready to be done with the public life, but he was so excited that she wouldn’t continue to be ogled by thousands of men based her television persona.
Alyssa felt like the weight of the world had been lifted off her shoulders. She didn’t care that the show’s producers weren’t happy, this was her life and she was tired of playing this slutty bitchy persona on television. It was fine when she was twenty-one and just out of college, but she felt that she had outgrown the role she was playing. Besides, with her gone and Mia leaning towards leaving as well, the other bitches could get plenty of air time. Honestly, she was tired of the cattiness and infighting.
Walking down Fifth Avenue, she decided to treat herself to something special for her date tonight. Alyssa knew Dom was taking her out to celebrate her decision. While she knew that he would never pressure her to leave the show, he’d not been shy about sharing his joy that she was indeed leaving. Walking past Gucci, Alyssa decided on a new dress. She thought that she would look for red since it was Dom’s favorite color and she had the red lingerie to wear underneath it.
Walking through the store, her eyes landed on red Versace jersey dress that reminded her of a mini dress from the 1950’s. She thought it would pair well with her lingerie and Jimmy Choo heels. The only thing she lacked was a red garter belt but she knew exactly where to pick one up as well as some sexy stockings. When Alyssa tried on the dress she thought she looked amazing. She took a quick selfie and sent it to Mia who quickly replied with a thumbs up emoji. Alyssa left the dressing room and paid for her purchase.
As Alyssa left Agent Provocateur after buying her garter belt and stockings she called her hairstylist to make an appointment for her to perform a miracle. Her hair was dark, thick and curly as hell on a good day, throw in the horrible humidity of the summer and it was frizz city.
Alyssa showed up showered, shaved, buffed and polished to see Amanda. As she sat down in the chair with champagne in hand, Alyssa proceeded to tell Amanda what she envisioned for the night. Alyssa wanted big curls that flowed down to her shoulders with her bangs pulled back and a red feather adornment.
Amanda smiled as she went to work. She happily chatted with Alyssa and quickly got updated about all the changes in her life recently. She had known Alyssa since grade school and was happy that Alyssa had finally gotten Dom to see her as someone other than Mia’s best friend. An hour later, Amanda spun Alyssa around and reveled in the gasp of pleasure Alyssa emitted looking at her hair.
“Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is exactly what I envisioned for tonight. I swear, when I get married you are so doing my hair. I already have the dress picked out, well being made. I mean even if it turns out not to be Dom, it is my dream dress.”
“Well, I’m glad you like it. Some of my best work if I do say so myself. You look absolutely amazing and I’m sure Dom will appreciate all the hard work I put in.”
Alyssa laughed. “I’m sure he will. Thanks again,” Alyssa said as she left. The walk home was quick, and she got a lot of looks as she progressed down the street. She thought if everyone else approved she hoped that Dom did as well.
Alyssa finished getting ready and stepped into her heels just as Dom knocked on the door. When she opened the door, Alyssa was struck at the shear rugged handsomeness of Dom. Her mouth fell open a little as he handed her a dozen red roses.
Dom felt as clueless as a fifteen-year-old virgin when Alyssa opened the door. She had always been any guys wet dream but standing there looking like a pin-up girl from the 1950’s made his mouth go dry and his balls tighten up. Thinking that he needed to wipe the drool from his mouth, Dom involuntarily brought his hand up to know that he wasn’t actually drooling.
“You look absolutely beautiful. I have never seen anything more gorgeous than you are tonight. Well except that first night with you spread out on my bed.”
Alyssa blushed. “Thank you for the roses. They’re beautiful.”
“Not as beautiful as you. I’ll let you put those in some water and then we’ll go to dinner.”
Dom held out his arm, and Alyssa took it as he led them downstairs. As they entered the elevator, Dom bent down and kissed Alyssa lightly not wanted to ruin her perfect make-up.
“I had my driver bring me tonight. I didn’t want to split my attention between driving and you.”
Dom took Alyssa’s hand and helped her into the car all the while thanking his lucky stars that she was in love with him. He had chosen Tavern On The Green for dinner. Dom made sure that they reserved him a table that overlooked the park. It was one of his mother’s favorite restaurants and she had instilled a love of the restaurant into him.
Once Dom was seated, Alyssa snuggled into the crook of his arm. She loved the peace and serenity that his embrace brought. “Where are we heading tonight?”
“I thought we would go to Tavern On The Green.”
“Thank you, Dom. I love to eat there. So many good memories.”
Dom leaned in and kissed her again. “You’re welcome. It’s one of my favorites as well. I meant to ask you, how did your talk with Matteo go?”
“I hope it went well. He feels lost right now, because he is set to marry a girl he barely knows, and one who apparently wants nothing to do with him. She and I have been together before and I thought maybe we could have a double date sometime to ease them into being together. I am just glad that we are getting to choose to be together and not forced into an arrangement like that. Seriously, what possessed you to think this is a good idea?”
“In my defense, it was Giovanni’s idea, and he wanted me to marry her, but I was already spoken for,” Dom said as he leaned down and stole another kiss, hoping to change the subject. “When is the last day of filming for you?”
“Ugh. Still a month away, and Mia still hasn’t decided what she is going to do yet.”
“When you film your last scene I am taking you away for a week to the Rome. We can look at art until you can’t look at it anymore and gorge ourselves every night.”
“That would be wonderful. Even though I have been numerous times, I want to experience it with you. Making love to you as the breeze flits through the windows of a villa will make it better than any trip I’ve ever made.”
Dom felt his slacks tighten more at her words. He could see them in bed making love under a full moon. Thankfully his thoughts were interrupted as the car came to a stop. When the door was opened he stepped out, offering his hand to Alyssa. He smiled as he watched her long legs come out of the car. He couldn’t wait to get her home and into bed. It was cute that she had been leaving little things at his penthouse. Hell, he’d already cleared a drawer for her and prepared the other vanity for her use.
They sat down to a private candlelit table with a bottle of decanted Caymus. Dom was mesmerized as he watched the fire flicker in her emerald eyes. He could easily get lost in the depths of her expressive orbs.
They dined on escargot and dry aged sirloins. By the time they got to dessert, Dom was feeling the need to loosen his pants, but the look in Alyssa’s eyes when she saw the chocolate soufflé was enough to push him forward. He enjoyed the soufflé almost as much as watching Alyssa’s tongue dart out to taste the chocolate; her moans almost set him off. By the time they finished, Dom had paid the check and had them on the way back to his penthouse.
Walking through the door, Dom barely had it closed before he had Alyssa pushed up against the wall with his lips descending on her. He tasted the chocolate on her lips mixed with the heady taste of the champagne they had with dessert. She tasted like heaven, and moaned like a whore. Dom couldn’t ask for a better response. Breaking the kiss, he carried Alyssa to his bedroom and stripped her out of her dress, leaving her in her red lingerie and high heels. His mouth watered as he took her in.
Alyssa was tired of always being the one with fewer clothes on, so she pushed Dom’s jacket off his shoulders and loosened his tie. She made quick work of his shirt buttons with trembling fingers. No matter how many times they made love she still felt the butterflies floating through her stomach. Spreading his shirt open, she kissed his chest as her fingers roamed the tanned olive skin. Licking his nipple with her tongue she received the response she hoped for and continued to kiss her way down his washboard abs.
While the room was warm, her body trembled like it was in the middle of a blizzard. She undid his belt and lowered his slacks. Alyssa stroked his erect manhood through his boxers before pulling them down and freeing the monster. Alyssa licked her lips as her slender fingers encircled his shaft and then ran her tongue over the velvety salty tip. She listened to Dom moan as her lips parted and she took the crown into her mouth. She sucked him deep and reveled in his taste. As she moved up and down his shaft, Alyssa felt Dom’s hands grip the back of her head and hold her in place as his hips started to thrust back and forth.
Dom felt himself grow larger in her mouth. He was close to coming and tried to pull Alyssa to her feet, but she dug her nails into his ass and bobbed her head quicker. She knew he was getting closer. Alyssa was so turned on from this simple act that she was getting close herself. She reached down into her panties and started stroking her aching bundle of nerves. Just was she felt Dom start to jerk and come in her mouth her orgasm took over. She swallowed every last drop before she collapsed from the power of her own release.
Dom was spent. That was the best blow job he’d ever had, but he wanted, no needed to taste her. He helped her up and led her to the bed. When she started to slip out of her shoes, Dom stopped her.
“Leave them on.”
Dom watched as Alyssa laid down on his bed and spread out for him. His heated gaze traveled the length of her body searing every piece of her into his memory. He lowered himself between her knees and ran his lips along her stockings from foot to her bare thighs. Her musky scent was heady and he longed to run his tongue along her glistening folds. As his tongue made contact with her clit, he felt Alyssa’s hands grab his head and pull him closer. She was becoming wantonly wild as she gained experience. The first swipe of his tongue produced a hunger he was not accustomed to. He needed to devour the sweet nectar of her pussy. Dom wanted her to come on his tongue and leave her taste on his lips.
