Chapter 23

Everlasting

After cutting their vacation short Rose had been a little annoyed, especially at the men trying to kidnap her in her own room. She was still trying to wrap her head around the fact that she had shot a man in the balls and threatened to shoot another. It frightened her how much she had enjoyed shooting someone. The adrenaline that had run through her felt amazing and the sound of her blood rushing through her head. She wanted to do it again.

Lissa had been startled returning form the dining hall, seeing their room full of bloodied and bound men in the middle of the room, and Rose waving the gun around the room like it was her job. She had been quick to accept the fact that they had to return home, it didn't bother her much since Christian would be waiting, and she really wanted to see him again.

She loved spending time with Rose but she had to admit to herself that spending time with Christian was a little more exciting and even she had to admit that she needed a little excitement in her life.

As they reached the mansion, they hurried out of the car making their way into the building. Neither woman wanted to wait another second to see their men. As they reached the door Aleksander stood in the doorway grinning from ear to ear, like he knew something they didn't.

„Hello ladies, back so soon?"

„It seems like you men can't be trusted on your own for a few days without finding yourselves in some-kind of a mess" Rose smirked back

„Ha" Aleksander laughed „It would seem so yes" his smile was light and boyish, too boyish for his strong features. He was a charmer, no doubt.

„Where is he, Aleksander?"

„In his office I would think, since he lives in there when you aren't around"

„Is the big bad mafia member feeling left out?" Rose teased with a dramatic pout of the lips, stepping in-front of him, to make her way into the house.

„No!" Aleksander retorted a little to forcefully to be believable „and it's Bratva Rose, we are a Bratva"

„Yeah, yeah, whatever you say" rolling her eyes Rose entered through the doorway, walking faster than normal, not wanting to prolong the wait to see Dimitri.

The house was always full of men in suits, as she walked by she received nods of recognition and respect. She was getting used to this feeling of protection, yet so much power.

Finally she caught a glimpse of his office door, before she even noticed her feet moved faster until she was sprinting up the stairs taking two at a time, not even bothering to think about how clumsy she was and her running anywhere was truly a hazardous move.

Not bothering to knock Rose opened the door to the office, and there he was, standing in all his tattooed glory, shirtsleeves drawn up to his elbows leaving his toned tattooed arms in full view, by the window looking rather unpleased with something he was being told on the phone placed on his ear. He was truly glorious.

Dimitri

„Well that's too bad. I truly do not care, Isack. This is a problem you need to solve, not me. You make a mess, you clean it up. Or you'll simply be replaced." Dimitri was about to give the idiot on the phone a single harsh warning when the sound of his office door diverted his attention from the phone in his hand. He could sense her before he saw her, she was home, finally.

She was in his arms before he could blink, he drew in a sigh of relief. She was safe.

„Fix it Isack, and that is not a suggestion" with that he hung up the phone and flung it on the desk before grabbing his woman around the waist, lifting her of the floor so he could hold her even closer as he lay his head in the crook of her neck, while she clung to him.

„Hello Love" Dimitri grumbled in joy

„Hi" Rose mumbled into his shoulder hugging him tighter

„I'm sorry for ruining your weekend trip"

„Mmhmm" she murmured again

„I'm happy to see you darling" Dimitri chuckled at the woman in his arms.

After a few minutes Dimitri set her on her feet again but held onto her hips as she gathered her stance. She looked beautiful. Her cheeks flushed with her hair in a loose knot on her head with a few loose strands here and there making her look as adorable as she was.

„Hi handsome" Rose smiled

„Hi, beautiful. How was the trip?"

„Fun until I was attacked"

„Yes, that was rather uncalled for wasn't it." He smiled back at her in a teasing manner.

„Uncalled for. It was terrifying Dimitri"

I'm sorry. That should not have happened, and it won't again. The situation has been taken care of."

„I know. Now kiss me and then you can have the pleasure of feeding me" her smile was wide and demanding at the same time and Dimitri couldn't help the chuckle that escaped him as he stared down at her. Then he grabbed the back of her head and pulled her closer by the waist, drawing her into him as close as he could manage then he slowly drew her head upwards until their lips softly met.

He had missed this. He had missed her.

Rose

Finally she had food in-front of her, she was starving and it was never good for anyone when she was hungry. Sitting in the huge kitchen surrounded by the cluster of men, she felt at home. This was her bonus family, and she couldn't have asked for a better one.

Dimitri took a seat next to her with his own plate of food, and for a moment they just enjoyed each other's company, just being there together. Even surrounded by people they loved the feeling of being together.

After a few minutes of silence, it was killed by Aleksander "So Rose. I heard you shot a man in the groin"

"I did" she mumbled through a mouth full of toast

„How did it feel, shooting someone"

„Strange"

„It gets better"

„Or we just grow colder." Vlad murmured from the other other side of the table

„Or that" Aleksander nodded in agreement. There was a tense silence in the room for a few seconds before Aleksander took it upon himself to break it „The boss needs to watch out, if she always aims for the groin. Better not piss her off"

There were chuckles around the room. Rose swallowed the food in her mouth before aiming her fork at him „You are coming dangerously close to pissing me off yourself Aleksander, maybe it's you who needs to be careful or I might just practice on you"

Aleksander burst out laughing at that accompanied by a few of the men in the room, even Dimitri chuckled at the look Aleksander was receiving from the woman beside him as she glared at the laughing idiot, while simultaneously stuffing her face.

Later that night as she was undressing and getting ready for the bath Dimitri had drawn for the, she let her curiosity get the better of her.

„Dimitri, why did they come for me?"

„Because they know you are the only way to truly ruin me." Rose kissed his worried face as he watched her

„I'm safe, stop your worrying"

„I'll never stop worrying about love" taking her hand he led her to the steaming bathtub and placed her in front of him as they sank into the water never æetting one another go. Dimitri showed his love by touch more often than words and it was one of Rose's favorite things about him.

„There is one more thing you should know love, but you need to stay calm" Rose turned her head and raised a brow at the naked man behind her „You can't expect me to stay calm after you tell me I should. Spit it out"

„The Mancinis seem to think you will be married to one of them"

„I'm sorry, what? Where in the hell would they get that idea?"

„From your father it would seem"

„That is ridiculous Dimitri, he would never promise me to someone. He isn't that stupid, my mother would kill him"

„I know, that's why the thought makes me uneasy. I need to see him tomorrow morning, there is something wrong about this whole situation"

„We, Dimitri. We will go see my father tomorrow"

„Of Course love"

„What did you do to them?"

„To whom?"

„The Mancinis"

„Why would you think I did anything?"

„Because I know you Dimitri, there is no way you let them just go. What did you do?" Rose rolled her eyes at him, she wasn't stupid, he was in a mafia, there was no way they had gotten away unscathed.

„I told them if they were ever to touch you again I would send them in parts to their mother."

„And?"

„They have lost at least thirty men in a horrible fire, that will be classified as an accident"

„Wow"Rose huffed as she played with his fingers in her lap „Did they hurt you?"

„No."

„Good. Did they look like they got the message?"

„I have an unsettling feeling they didn't, but we will be ready if they ever come for you again, and I'm not going to lie to you, they probably will. Sooner or later."

Rose just nodded, her head spinning at the thought of being grabbed like that again, she had too many bad memories of violence not to be worried.

„I want you to teach me how to fight, and handle a gun" Dimitri sighed deeply in a hesitant way „I want to know what to do if or when it happens again Dimitri. I won't be powerless again. Vlad and Boris won't always be there or at least not fast enough and I want to be prepared."

„Alright love, I'll teach you, if it makes you feel safer" Rose turned in the tub to face him, she ran her fingers through his hair pushing it away from his hard and worried face, „Thank you, it means alot to me"

Their eyes met and she watched as the worry drained from his face filling with admiration in its stead. If just for this moment they were safe and didn't have a worry in mind. This was how it was supposed to be. Just the two of them, alone in each other's arms.

„Take me to bed Dimitri"

„As you wish" Dimitri held her close to his chest as he rose from the tub with ease, dripping as they did. Expecting him to let her down to dry off Rose loosened her grip on him. He however held her tighter, taking large hurried steps towards the bed.

„Dimitri I'm dripping on the floor" she realised her clumsy wording as a large grin predatory grin made its way onto Dimitri's face.

„That's just how I like it" his voice grew deeper with lust as he squeezed her ass with his large bearlike hands, moaning in excitement at the feel of her globes underneath his fingers.

„Dimitri" Rose lightly scolded him, yet a smile grew on her own face. The smile however vanished as she felt a cold gust on her wet skin as he threw her in the air, landing on the bed in the middle of the even larger room.

There he stood in all his naked glory watching her like an animal ready to pounce at its prey. „Hope you had enough rest in your short time away, because there isn't going to be much of it tonight"

And then he pounced.

Rose shrieked as he came towards her in calculated movements, for a large man he moved incredibly fast. Grabbing her by the ankles he drew her to the edge of the bed in one swift movement, grabbing her by the back of her neck, when she was close enough, their lips met in a hard kiss, Rose could feel all the air escaping her lungs. This man took every ounce of breath out of her every single day.

He was aggressive but oh so careful with her, sliding his rough hand against her inner thigh in a slow yet powerful way, until she felt him there, by her sweet spot, rubbing and pinching in just the right way. He knew her body, better than she did.

She was dripping in the best way, she was so wet his fingers entered her with ease, moaning into his mouth as he did. Her head lulled back at the feel of him rubbing against her insides, he kissed her throat licking her collarbone as he pushed another finger into her, filling her completely.

„So wet for me love" Dimitri growled in her ear as he moved his fingers faster inside her, making her lose her breath for the second time in just as many minutes.

„Only for you" she managed to groan out as he kissed down her neck again. He played her like a fiddle, and she could feel herself getting closer to her breaking point. She grabbed his hair as he took her hard nipple in his mouth, licking and sucking like it was his job, a little bite to her sensitive nipple made her clench around his thick rough fingers buried deep inside her.

„Dimitri" his name came out as a whine, just a few more seconds and she'd be there.

As she was reaching her breaking point his fingers disappeared from inside her. Opening her eyes she looked at the man in front of her in a hazy confusion. Then her hair was being grabbed by the roots, tugging it back and exposing her throat to him once again, giving him complete access to lick his way from her nipple to her ear, giving it a tug with his teeth.

Rose couldn't see anything apart from the ceiling above her, but the sounds coming from Dimitri, she knew he was preparing himself to enter her, the thought making her moan and clench her thighs together in a sad attempt to relieve the throbbing between them.

„Please" Rose whined into the air, knowing he heard her since he grabbed her by the thigh and pulled them apart, making room for his own hips in between hers, the perfect position.

Slowly he let go of her thigh, but grabbed onto her neck where he held her lightly, beckoning her to watch as he rubbed himself. Then much to her relief he finally positioned himself just right and slid into her dripping, throbbing center, in a painfully slow pace.

She was going mad beneath him, as he continued to torture her with his slowness. Letting go of her neck he placed his thumb on the throbbing nub just above where he had entered her.

She couldn't take her eyes off him. Finally he entered her completely, filling her to the hilt groaning in satisfaction at the feel of her sucking him deeper into the warmth of her center.

„Jesus" Dimitri groaned when he couldn't get any deeper.

Rose moved her hips in order to get him to move, she needed him to move. His thumb kept stroking her as he began moving his hips in the perfect rhythm. She could feel her chest going red with the strength of the waves about to hit all of her nerve endings.

„I love you! She whispered into his ear

„I love you" Dimitri groaned in return as she felt him move both his thumb and his hips faster urging her to let go, to feel everything she needed.

„Come!" Dimitri growled, sounding like he was at his own breaking point. Rose knew she always came first and he was holding on for her sake. The thought of him holding on until she came pushed her to her breaking point. She came with a gasp that lasted for what seemed like an eternity, clenching around him deep inside her.

Then he let go, filling her insides, roaring as he came, the veins on his forearms about to burst as he held on with dear life to the sheets beneath her, holding himself still while the force of his release ran through him.

There was silence in the room apart from their laboured breathing, as they tried to calm their heartbeats to a steady rhythm. Dimitri fell beside her in the bed with a thud as he hit the pillow, his chest heaving. Rose placed her shaking hand on his chest, wanting to feel him beside her as they lay there silent yet peaceful.

After a few moments as they began to compose themselves Dimitri drew her close to his chest, running his fingers along her face removing the wet strands from her face to the back of her ears.

"Wow"

"Mhmm"Dimitri murmured "you weren't kidding"

„What?"

„You are dripping"

„Ugh, you pig" Rose slapped his damp chest lightly as he lay ther laughing beside her

„Only for you"

"Damn right" Rose huffed satisfied for more than one reason

"You are the love of my life, you know that. There is nothing else that matters now. Just this. You and me"

"I love you so much Dimitri"

"And I you Roza"

So? What do we think ?
