Not Safe For Work
Chapter 37
They ended up sneaking out of their reception. There were two reasons. The first was that Liz knew Jason had talked to enough people for the night, he would have talked to more for her but she didn't need that. The second was because the security crew didn't want the newlyweds travel plans noted. They were going right from the hotel to the plane. Liz and Jason had both spent time with their boys before the little guys left for the mansion. They would be missed, but this time alone would be wonderful.
From the ballroom Liz went back to the bridal chamber where Emily was waiting. Elizabeth didn't want to take her gown with her, so she was getting changed first. Jason was down the hall in the groom's waiting area doing the same thing. "Where are you guys going?" Emily asked as she waited for Liz to come back out.
"Italy." Liz replied coming out of the attached bathroom in yoga pants and comfy shirt.
"Where in Italy, because you've said that before." Emily pointed out.
"I have no clue." Liz grinned. "Jason wouldn't tell me. Honestly I don't care where in Italy we go. I'm getting my dream trip so I'm not going to complain about what my husband wants to show me. I'm guessing we are not going to Palermo."
"Good guess." Emily nodded her head. "It's going to be morning when you land." It wasn't quite ten now, and the time difference meant the day would be starting when they arrived.
Liz nodded. "We are sleeping on the plane." The only down side was that Jason's plane didn't have a bedroom, which meant no private time until they were at wherever they were staying. They had been together last night so it wasn't like she was being deprived, she was just excited for their first time together as a married couple. "I will send you pictures."
"Good. The only part of Italy I've ever seen is Palermo. I'm sure Milo will show me more at some point." Emily was looking forward to it. "He has asked me to show him London, so I'm thinking on our next vacation we will go there."
"Jason has mentioned us visiting." Liz knew the Morgan family hailed from England, and she would love to see where Lila spent her early childhood. "Okay I'm all set."
It didn't surprise either one of them that Jason was already waiting when they opened the door. He grinned at his girl. "Behave." He said getting a hug from his sister.
"Between work, and trying to wrestle the boys from mom I won't have any free time." Emily said laughing. "Be happy. Both of you." She gave Liz a hard hug.
"We are." Jason said pulling his wife closer. "And we will be."
"We'll see you when we get home." Liz said getting another hug. "Ready?" She asked Jason.
"I am. Let's go." Jason said linking their fingers and nodding to Renaldo. The guard checked with the outside security crew and when he got the all clear everyone headed out.
"Babe." Jason said softly to wake up his wife. He heard some people say that it took them a while to adjust to being married. That wasn't an issue with him. Maybe it was because he had waited so long for the privilege of saying his life was joined with the woman with her head on his shoulders. He wasn't going to overthink it, instead he would just be grateful it had happened.
"Mmm. Are we landing?" Liz said blinking and trying to wake up. Last night after taking off they had staked out a large armchair and cuddled up. She went to sleep with the sound of Jason's heartbeat under her ear.
"Not for about an hour. You said you wanted to get changed." He reminded her. He had grabbing a shower first, giving her more time to sleep. They were heading to the villa he had rented for the next two weeks first, and then spending the day out. It was going to be an early day because of the time change, which he was fine with.
"Yeah." She said struggling to keep her eyes open. "How come we only have two guards?" They had more for the trip to Seattle. "Is it because the boys are home?"
"We are traveling with Renaldo and Marco. The rest of the security detail left a few days ago to make sure everything was okay." Jason explained. "Even if the boys had come we would have only traveled with a small detail." Generally when he went anywhere that was how it worked. The Seattle trip was different because it was last minute.
"Okay. I will go shower." Liz said sitting up. "Where is my garment bag?" She sent it to the plane yesterday morning along with her luggage.
"In the closet across from the second bathroom." Jason let her know.
"I won't be too long." Liz said leaning forward and kissing him.
"There will be hot chocolate when you come back out." He had asked for some to be put on the plane.
"You better make it coffee." Liz had no idea how the time change would hit her, but she didn't want to be dragging an hour from how.
"Coffee then." Jason said kissing her and then watching as she walked to the bathroom.
"Wow. You look beautiful." Jason was grinning as he took in Elizabeth.
"Thank you." She wondered if she would ever stop blushing at his compliments. "I wanted something relaxed, but still pretty for our first day in Italy." The white cotton poplin sundress was just that. The lightweight material would keep her cool because Margareta said that the country was experiencing higher than normal temperatures this summer. The bright red floral print gave the garment splashes of color to keep it from being boring. This was a classic piece that would get a lot of use. On her feet were white strappy sandals, which were comfortable enough for sightseeing. "So are you going to tell me where we are heading, or do I have to wait until we land?"
Jason just grinned before he sipped his coffee. Elizabeth had been trying to get hints for the last week. He had held out against all her efforts, which were very enjoyable.
"I am taking you to Capri." He finally spilled the beans. He had picked the location because he never heard her talk about it, and he really liked it. Generally if he came to Italy for R&R this was his destination of choice.
"Will we see the Blue Grotto while we are here?" Liz wanted to know. Capri was a popular destination among artist of all genres, so she actually knew a fair amount about the island. It was on her list of places to see Italy, just not as high as say Venice or Florence. However she would not be disappointed to be visiting this location first.
"We will." Jason had a mental list of places he wanted to take her to visit. Of course they would see anything she might want to as well. "I like to come here and I wanted to share it with you."
"I am looking forward to it." Liz assured him. "Do you own a villa here?"
"No." Jason answered shaking his head. "It never even occurred to me to buy one. I have friends who own villas on the island, I generally stay at one of those. Security is already set up and I don't have to worry about that. We are staying at the Villa Il Poeta which is owned by the Brown family, I have an alliance with them. Their territory is in Canada and I will have to take you and the boys to visit."
"I'd like to show Cameron and Jake more of the world." Liz wanted her children to experience things she hadn't at their age.
"So would I. Cameron is already picking up Italian quickly so I figured we would start here, maybe for spring break." Jason wouldn't suggest Christmas because his mother would hurt him.
"The fasten seatbelt light is on." Renaldo said sticking his head in the kitchen. Both he and Marco were giving the married couple as much space as the plane allowed.
"Thanks." Jason said before placing his and his wife's mugs in the sinks. "Ready?"
"Absolutely." She said smiling as they headed back to the main cabin.
At the villa and rooms were picked out before Jason and the guys had a quick meeting. While they did Elizabeth took a walking tour of their temporary home. While the structure itself was older the furnishings inside were contemporary. Colorful fabrics were sprinkled in among earth tone walls and floors. She had no doubt they would comfortable during their stay.
She ended her walk around the property on the wide terrace where she stood and took in the expanse of blue water. If she never left this spot the honeymoon would be one she never forgot. Although yes she did wish to further explore the lush gardens on the estate, and see the remainder of the island. Footsteps had her taking her eyes off the water. "Is your meeting done?"
"It is, we can head out now." Jason let her know. He was getting a report on the area as well as letting the guys know some of the things Elizabeth wanted to do.
"What will we be seeing first?" Elizabeth wanted to know.
"I'm taking you to see the Villa San Michele. It sits on a ledge at the top of the Phoenician Steps. We will also be able to see the Sorrentine Pensula and Mount Vesuvius from there." Jason explained as they linked fingers.
"That sounds perfect." Liz said giving him a wide smile. She grabbed her bag where her camera was because she wanted to take pictures. When she got home she wanted to put some of Italy on a canvas.
They spent the morning in the gardens and when the day warmed they did several indoor activities including visits to the Punta Carena Lighthouse and the Villa Jovis. Both locations gave them a brief look into the history of the island. There were several other villas in the area to visit and they ear marked them for later in the trip.
Because of the time change no one was hungry for lunch. The guards were all grinning after Elizabeth made sure to check. If even one of them had been hungry they would have stopped. It didn't take long before the guys were joking that Renaldo needed to watch his back because guarding Mrs. Morgan was the assignment everyone would want.
They had an early dinner, by Italian standards and Jason took them to Tratorria Mamma Giovanna. It was a little off the beaten path, but he promised that the meal would be worth the journey. Because it was just after five the restaurant was fairly empty. This wasn't a place many tourists knew about which was why Jason liked it. They asked for tables on the terrace and were quickly seated.
Elizabeth sat back and just let her husband order for her. In flawless Italian. He was sexy when he spoke the language. He knew that she thought that, and she swore that was why he decided their sons needed to learn the language. She sometimes had to fan herself during the lessons at the house.
"What are we having?" She asked as the waiter moved away.
"I ordered some of the local favorites. Ravioli Capresi which is the most famous dish from the island. Pezzogna, which is a local fish. We will be having it all'acqua pazza. Which means in a sauce made of cherry tomatoes, parsley, garlic and white wine. We will end our meal with Torte Caprese which is a chocolate and almond cake. Usually served with limoncello, but I requested it with espresso since we will be drinking wine with dinner." There would be time later to sample the drink the region was famous for.
"We will dine well." Elizabeth said as the waiter returned with their wine. After Jason nodded his approval two glasses were poured. "To us." She raised her glass in a toast.
"To us." Jason repeated before tapping his glass to hers. That was something worth celebrating.
There was no true master suite at the villa, but there was a bedroom that was further from the rest and the Morgans chose that one for themselves. Through the terrace door they could see the gardens, but at the moment neither one of them was interested in anything outside their private quarters.
"I'm going to get changed." Elizabeth said before heading into the bathroom. She hadn't really unpacked much earlier today, but she did remove one item from her luggage. It was hanging in the en suite right now.
With the door shut she removed her dress, and then her underwear before slipping on the short silk nightgown. It was a bright teal green and stopped mid-thigh with spaghetti straps that left most of her shoulders bare and a back that dipped low. Already the cool fabric was warming from being close to her skin. With a final look in the mirror she headed out to where here guy was waiting.
While Elizabeth was getting undressed Jason did the same down to his shorts. He also took a moment to close the curtains on the window and terrace door. Not that he expected any peeping toms, but he knew that would make his wife more comfortable. Even back home she kept the curtains in their bedroom closed. With that done he dimmed the lights and waited.
The door opened and a slow smile spread across his face. "So worth the wait."
"I'm glad you think so." Liz said smiling wide. "I saw this and thought of you."
"I'm glad that I can inspire you." He said with a wicked grin. "If you come over here I can show you how much you inspire me."
"That is an invitation I won't ever refuse." Elizabeth came over and took the hand he was holding out.
"I don't think I have the words to tell you how happy I am that we are married." Jason said pulling her closer. "I feel like my life is finally beginning, now that you and our sons are officially a family. I kept expecting that something was going to come along and get in the way." He told her what he had been feeling as their wedding day approached. "But nothing did, and now we won't ever be apart again."
"I know what you are describing. We've come so close so many times." Elizabeth let her hands slide up the firm skin of his chest and linked her fingers behind his neck. "This time we made it. We are here, together in Italy, about to make love for the first time as husband and wife."
Jason didn't bother to speak because his wife already knew what was in his heart. He just dipped his head and covered her lips. His hands slide down the smooth material and while the lingerie was lovely, at the moment it was in his way. He wanted his hands on her skin.
Liz opened beneath his lips and invited him to take the kiss deeper. She moaned lightly as his hands cupped her bottom over the silk. He was hard against her belly and she couldn't help but wiggle against him.
"Behave." Jason said with his lips against her neck. "I'm trying to go slow." She made him feel impatient.
Liz tilted her head so he could have better access. "We have all night." She was feeling greedy. "The next two weeks, and the rest of our lives. So if we rush right now, it will be fine. I've had to wait all day." She said ending on a pout.
Jason rose up and sucked that lip into his mouth before kissing her as he walked her backwards to the bed. He was careful as he took them down. When she beneath him he lowered the straps of her nightie and pushed down the material until her chest was revealed to him. Her skin was the most beautiful shade of pink as she flushed with arousal. "I could look at you all day and never get tired."
Elizabeth ran her fingers through his hair and urged him closer. She knew that she was going to be loved more than she ever imagined. "That night that you saved me, I was in the back of the car regretting all the time we wasted." She blinked back the tears that were threatening to fall. "I thought I wasn't ever going to see you again, that I would never get the chance to tell you how much I loved you ever again. I won't take you, or us, for granted."
"I love you." Jason said softly his eyes on hers. That night was one he tried not to think on. When he did his heart actually started beating hard as he remembered the fear he felt. "Always." He kissed over her heart before taking a hard nipple into his mouth. After loving both pert mounds he pushed the fabric further down letting his lips follow. He kept going until he was at the very heart of her.
"Oh!" Elizabeth said arching hard as he loved her with his tongue. She was never ready for just how incredible he made her feel with this intimate kiss. "Oh, yes! Yes! Yes!" She said ending on a long moan as she fell into bliss. When he didn't stop she soared higher still and shattered a second time, and this time it was his name on her lips. "Jason." When she opened her eyes again he was smiling down at her.
"Ready for me?" Jason simply couldn't wait any longer. Hearing her scream from something his was doing was a huge turn on. The more vocal she was the harder he got.
"Let me love you too." Elizabeth said reaching down had grasping his hard length. At some point he had chucked his shorts.
"I won't last." Jason told her. "I need you too much." It was a feeling that wouldn't ever go away.
"Take me Jason, all of me." Elizabeth said softly.
Without another word Jason pushed inside her, holding still for a moment revealing in the power of their connection. Slowly he started to move and she rocked in time with him. His body was shaking as he tried to hold off from exploding. He wanted her to peak again, he wanted to feel her holding him so tight. "Go over for me Elizabeth." He begged as he reached the end of his restraint. He was moving harder with each pump of his hips.
Elizabeth just exploded and when she felt him filling her with his very essence she urged him down for a kiss. "We have a whole life of this too look forward to. That is something to keep me smiling." She told him as he moved to her side and cuddled close.
Jason gently kissed her temple as she snuggled into him. "Give me fifteen minutes and we can get started on that."
Thanks for the reviews!
