The moment his weight disappeared from my back, I scrambled upwards to a seated position, watching as he took several steps back. His cock glistened with my wetness, and I had to fight the shock that was now settling in.
I was a virgin no longer.
He raked a hand through his hair before tucking his cock back into his pants.
“You’re mine now,” he said softly, buttoning his pants. “Make no mistake of the fact, Leda. No one can save you. No one is coming for you. You are mine. I can do this to you anytime I want. Never forget that.”
I swallowed at his statement, my traitorous heart deciding that I might not care if anyone came for me. Who would anyway? Nico? Probably, but if he hadn’t come by now, he probably wouldn’t be coming any time soon. I was a big girl, and so far Valentino hadn’t done anything but grow my sexual experience unabashedly.
I should be ashamed, but I wasn’t, and that was what scared me.
Without saying a word to me, Valentino walked out of the room, shutting the door behind him. I watched the door for a few moments, torn on whether or not to move if he came back
When the door didn’t reopen, I let out a shaky breath. There was a smear of pink on the comforter, the proof that I no longer had my innocence. A drop of pearl leaked out, tinged with spirals of pink.This really happened.
He bought me.
He fucked me.
He made me bleed.
I didn’t even put up a fight.
And I liked it.
Chapter 25
Leda
I didn’t understand what was going on, but I couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that Ilikedwhat had just happened. Ilikedthat he had dominated me, that he had taken me and came inside of me even though I begged him not to.
The right person would have fought back. The right personshouldhave fought back. The right person wouldn’t have reached out to cradle his balls right before he emptied himself inside of her—like she wasn’t just as wanton as her kidnapper was.
I hadn’t done any of those things. I didn’t even think about fighting back. Instead, I allowed Valentino to order me around like I was some sort of slave craving her master’s touch. I let him inside of me. I held him there while he filled me.
Swallowing the harsh truth, I climbed off the bed and walked to the bathroom, wincing as I did so. My ass was sore from his slaps, but I knew that I would be sore for other reasons come the morning. Most of the women I had been around in my adult life had lost their virginity long ago.
None of them told me what to expect. They all assumed that I was like them and knew my way around a guy.
Judging by how my body instinctively reacted to Valentino, maybe that was the right assumption.
A bubble of laughter escaped me before it turned into an all-out sob, and I quickly turned on the shower to drown it out.
I wasn’t upset about what I had done. What I was upset about was that I didn’t know what the hell was going on and what would come next.
What would Valentino do now? Had he accomplished what he had set out to do, and was he now going to kill me?
Or was this part of his plan to take my virginity and now flaunt it in front of my father so that he would know he couldn’t sell me again? I would be tainted goods, though I somehow doubted that would stop Carmine D’Agostino from getting what he wanted in the end. He had been extremely specific in what his plans were for me.
The water felt hot on my skin as I stepped inside, sliding down the wall of the shower before drawing my knees to my chest. Whatever Valentino did decide to do with me, it was a far better thought than what my father had in store.
I’d rather be Valentino’s slave, to have him fuck me repeatedly night in and night out, than to be married off to some Don that my father had picked out.
A laugh escaped me as I thought about how my father was likely spewing venom at this moment, having lost his opportunity to take the reins of his own Mafia once more. It was disbanded, disgraced, and probably never likely to pull back together again, at least not under my father’s thumb.
That was enough for me to face whatever was next. Knowing that my father was ruined beyond his comprehension would keep me warm at night.
My father had summoned me from my summer vacation in France. It was supposed to be a present that he gave me for my high school graduation.
