Alana
I walkedthrough the house with Lucia’s words still in my head. Was it true that Alejandro had such influence, we could just become her legal guardians? Just like that?
I knew that Lucia had lied to me, but I completely understood why. And despite who her family were, she was still a scared, sixteen year old girl with no-one to turn to. I had come to care for her a great deal in the short time I’d known her, and I was certain that we had come into each others lives for a reason.
I closed the bedroom door behind me and walked towards the bed, my feet sinking into the plush carpet. Alejandro was lying with his hands behind his head staring at the TV. He glanced at me as I crossed the room but then turned back to the screen. He was still angry, and I knew he was annoyed with me for suggesting that Lucia spend the night, but fortunately I also knew the perfect way to cure him of any bad mood.
I pulled my dress over my head and tossed it onto the floor before removing my bra and doing the same. Slipping under the covers, I pressed my body against his, placing my hand on his chest.
He grunted in response and I couldn’t help but smile. He was so hot when he was angry.
‘Thank you for letting Lucia stay,’ I purred.
‘She goes back to that family tomorrow,’ he snapped.
I resisted the urge to tell him that I wanted her to stay with us for the foreseeable future, or how much she hated her foster placement and how worried I was that she would run away again if we sent her back there. That could wait until he was in a better mood.
‘She’s just a child, Alex,’ I said instead.
He turned to me with a scowl on his face. ‘She’s dangerous, Alana!’
‘Her enemies might be, but she’s not.’
‘Same thing,’ he snorted.
I felt the anger flickering in my chest. ‘I can’t believe you have so little compassion for her. She’s a kid and she is terrified. She has no-one. I thought the cold hearted bastard routine was just an act you put on, but clearly I was mistaken.’
He moved before I could even finish my thought. Rolling on top of me, grabbing my wrists and pinning them flat to the pillow beside my head. ‘You think I’m a cold hearted Cabrón?’
I looked into his dark eyes, full of fire and passion, and I shook my head. ‘I know that you’re not,’ I whispered. ‘So, why won’t you help Lucia?’
‘I have helped her. I will. But that doesn’t include her staying here.’
‘But –’
‘I feel bad for her, Alana. I know she’s been through hell and she deserves to be safe and protected. But, you are my priority,’ he interrupted me. ‘Keeping you and the rest of my family safe are the only things that matter to me. And inviting Lucia into our home is a risk.’
‘I know,’ I nodded my agreement. I knew there was no use arguing with him right now, so I tried a completely different tactic. ‘Do you want to comer tu coño?’
He blinked at me before laughing softly and I was happy to relieve the tension.
‘What?’ I asked.
‘What do you think you just said?’
‘I asked you if you wanted to eat my pussy, didn’t I?’
‘Not quite, princesa,’ he chuckled.
‘Well, do you?’ I flashed an eyebrow at him.
‘Always,’ he growled.
I watched as his dark head disappeared beneath the covers and I arched my back in pleasure as he trailed soft kisses down my body towards the apex of my thighs.
He pressed his nose against my panties and inhaled deeply. ‘You smell fucking delicious,’ he growled before hooking his fingers into the top of them and peeling them down my legs. He sat back on his knees so the covers fell away and tossed my panties onto the floor.
Then his head bent low again, parting my folds with his thumbs before blowing a cool stream of air over them.
