Legend (Requiem MC #6)

Chapter Twelve Delizioso

Glory

My gosh, I could kiss this man forever. Not possible I know, but I’d waited so long to be with him I could stow us away on an island and be happy for at least six months.

Breaking our kiss, Legend grasped my hand and led me away from the main room.

By the time we made it down the hall, we were crazy with lust. We burst into my room through the door, then slamming it, we literally tore each other’s clothes off.

I now stood in only my bra and panties. The way his eyes roamed over me – hot and intense – told me he loved what he saw.

Then out of nowhere, he moved me over to my full length mirror.

I stared at his reflection. His bare body was something I could look at all day long. Tall, wide shoulders, slim waist and golden skin. Yum, freakin’ yum. “You are gorgeous, Legend.”

“I think that title belongs to you, my Glory,” he murmured as moved me in front of him. He then rolled my bra straps down and unhooked my bra. My breasts bounced free as my nipples hardened in the cool air. While standing behind me, he immediately covered each one with his hands. His eyes burned at me in the mirror as he passed his fingers across my nipples.

Shivering, I took a deep breath. I wanted him so much. If he kept this up, I would crumble at his feet. I knew what he could do to my body. I had learned all about that last night and it had blown my mind. I never knew it could be like that. I never felt anything when I was close to other men. Nothing. Maybe just curiosity, then remorse upon wasting the energy after going on a date or two.

They weren’t Legend, therefore, they weren’t worth the time.

His palms kept grazing my breasts and I trembled some more. My knees had already gone a bit weak. I wouldn’t last long under this kind of seduction… Legend’s kind of seduction.

His eyes locked with mine as he whispered to my ear, “Quiero que seas mía para siempre.”

The freakin’ italian. It would be the end of me as just the sound of him speaking it, made me wet between my thighs. I never heard it from him before but now, I couldn’t get enough of it. Staring at him, I tilted my head in curiosity.

He smiled as he translated it, “I want you to be mine forever.”

Looking into the mirror at his reflection, I laughed. “I’ve been yours for a long time, Legend.”

He gave me a nod. “I was just thinking how I wish I’d taken you up on sharing that cake on your birthday. Then I would have known heaven like I had last night. Like I’m about to have again. That’s why I don’t want to waste any more time,” he whispered, then kissed the skin along my neck.

Damnit, I loved the way his hot mouth felt on my skin.

I always knew it would be like this. Now he saw it and he knew it too. His hands slid down to my ass to squeeze my cheeks.

With another gasp, I pressed my body back into him. I just couldn’t get close enough.

Turning me around, he kissed me again and maneuvered me backwards to the bed. I felt the mattress against my legs knocking me off my feet, onto the bed. Grasping my inner thighs, he spread me wide open. Placing two fingers on my clit, he stroked me.

I moaned at how good it felt. It wasn’t just his touch that had me purring. It was the fact that Legend was finally mine. He’d told me I was his forever. My dreams had finally come true.

“Damn,” he said, his voice low and deep. “You are so wet.” Looking down at me, he swiped his finger through my wet folds then raised it to lick off my essence.

I shivered at his sensual action, as I never dreamed he could be like this with me. But after last night, I had to admit, his actions had only gotten hotter.

Then he plunged two fingers into me.

I gasped at the pleasure pulsing through my body. Pulling them out, he then pushed them back in again. The steady rhythm drove me crazy and my body wouldn’t stay still. I arched my hips against his hand as desperation for more of him filled me. I wanted all that he could give me.

Legend let out a small growl as he grasped my nipple and tugged gently on it. The most wonderful sensations overwhelmed me as he worked me over. My breathing took on a rapid pace with every skilled stroke of his fingers, every tug on my nipples. It felt so good as it pushed me closer and closer to the edge of heaven. My body felt hot all over and I vaguely wondered if I would simply melt into the bed.

“I want more,” he whispered as he opened my folds to latch onto my clit.

Biting at my lip so I wouldn't scream, I raised my hips to get closer to his hot mouth.

Pumping in and out of me, he suckled me too.

Panting for air, I couldn’t handle this, as his mouth was so hot and thorough on me. Damn…this was too much pleasure for my senses to handle, I wanted to scream but I couldn’t. Before I knew it, I came hard with a silent scream as he sucked on me.

Suddenly, he slid his hard body up and entered me. I gulped for air as this accentuated my orgasm while he filled me. Grasping my face with his hands, he smothered my mouth with his as he plunged deeply into me. Kissing me wildly, deeply and possessively. I think I became delirious as his tongue met mine and my climax stretched on and on. The kiss was possessive as if he was claiming my mouth as his.

Hell, I was all his.

Breaking the breathless kiss, he lowered his lips to one of my nipples to suck on it as he slowed his strokes into me. Lapping and nibbling at it hungrily, he whispered to my breast, “Così delizioso.”

I was still climaxing as my walls tightened around his shaft and if I could have spoken, I would have asked what that meant. But at this moment…I was entirely overcome by all that was Legend.

Biting his lip, as he whispered my name, he then lunged up high in me and climaxed.

The man of my dreams was presently inside me, giving me all of himself—finally. I had to be dreaming…I just had to be. Wrapping my legs around him, I tugged him as close as I could get. Then I whispered to his lips, “My Legend.”

Kissing me again, we came together.

It took me a few minutes to calm my breathing as Legend wrapped his arm around me and scooted me up on the bed so my head rested on the pillow. He then reached back and tucked the blanket up and over me. “Damn Glory, am I glad that you never gave up on us.”

I wrapped my arms around his neck and gazed into his eyes. “I had no choice, Legend. I tried dating. I did. I looked at other guys. I gave them a chance. Went out on dates and all that. But they just never held my attention. I would come back home from school and see you and it would rekindle how I felt all over again. Then a couple of years back, I simply refused to lie to myself anymore. Even before my birthday, I saw that you did think of me as a woman. I caught you looking. I saw the yearning in your eyes. I just had to wait until you came to your damn senses.”

Staring into my eyes, he chuckled. “The weddings did it. I suddenly realized that someday, I could be watching your wedding…To someone else. My mind and I think my heart refused to accept this thought. I never even knew I walked across the room and grabbed you up to kiss you.”

Smiling, I replied, “I have to admit I was shocked, but I loved it as I had waited so long for that kiss. But at the same time, I was mad that it took you so damned long.” I caressed his cheek. “You know how I act when I get angry. So I couldn’t help it, I slapped you.”

We both laughed.

Caressing my cheek with his fingers, he spoke quietly, “We will build a future together here, Glory. After we visit my family. I want to show you off to them anyway.”

I shook my head.

“You just don’t seem to know how beautiful you are,” he complained.

I rolled my eyes. “I always hoped you would think so, but there were times… Like I thought you would never see me as a grown woman. Not a little sister like you pretended I was.”

“Believe me, that has been nearly impossible to do for the last several years. Pretend that you weren’t sexy as fuck and hot as all hell.”

I scoffed sarcastically. “You coulda fooled me.”

Lying back on the pillow and looking up at the ceiling, he admitted, “Believe me, I wanted you. It nearly drove me insane at times. And I thought about us. I did. Then half the time, I feared you would find someone else. So I would go back to hiding my feelings. Damn, you were right though. Us together…fucking fire.”

“See?” I smirked while feeling smug.

He laughed again. “Scorching, babe. Simply scorching.”

We both smiled as we stared at the ceiling together, thinking of just how hot we actually were together.

Legend turned to prop his head up with his hand as he broke the sweet silence, “I kept guilting myself out of having the hots for you.” He let out a sigh as he played with a lock of my hair. “I had to keep telling myself that it was for the best of the Walker clan in general. I’m still not comfortable as it is. The mafia never allows people to walk away, you know?”

I paused and asked him, “So what are you saying? That your father might try to separate us?”

“I’m not sure what he might try now, but you have to know my dad better to understand why I feel like this. He never quits. He never accepts anything that doesn’t go his way.”

“I guess he’s never come up against a woman like me though…has he? I am the same way.”

Legend shook his head. “If anyone could get to my father and make him lose his mind. I think it would be you. He got a kick out of your sassy nature when he was here, but if he’s around you for a longer time, he might not be so amused.”

I scoffed. “You make me sound like a menace. I mean I can be nice.”

“Yes, you can but I know you well. The minute he tries to push you or manipulate you…” He shook his head.

“Yeah, ok. I admit it. I won’t be able to keep my rap shut.” I grinned at him. “I hate bullies.”

He smiled back at me. “Yes, I remember. Duke and Skunky. I won’t ever forget that.”

I giggled and reached over to tap his nose with my finger. “Duke still avoids me to this very day.”

“Oh, I bet he does.” Legend laughed.

Duke was a Requiem Lieutenant. A very large fellow with a grumpy disposition. Tough looking. Scowls and tatts. Most wouldn’t want to face him in a dark alley or even a well lit one. He had an odd phobia though. He didn’t like dogs. Not sure if it was just dogs or all animals. In fact, I had noticed that since Daisy had come and was the boss running the main room now, Duke had been out as a fence guard most of the time.

One day about six months ago, I brought in a stray dog. I found him out on the road just before I got to the compound. Just a mutt really and not a large one but he was black with a white stripe down his tail. I jokingly called him Skunky. Duke came in, saw him and called him a shitty excuse for a dog. He leaned down and actually growled at the dog, who sat at my feet. Skunky thought he was acting aggressively, possibly against me. So he went after Duke.

The biker stood at 6 foot 5 and probably weighed over two hundred and eighty. Yet, despite his size, he yelped like a kid and acted afraid of that little dog. Pulling his weapon from his waistband, he cocked it.

I thought…Oh no, he didn’t. I kicked the gun out of his hand and with a roundhouse kick I had him down on his back.

Skunky went off barking and growling, biting at his ankle.

The entire clubhouse witnessed this little dog and large predator circus as they all laughed.

“Nah, I don’t like bullies,” I told Legend as he laid beside me.

He snickered. “Just don’t beat my dad up, ok? I mean he will deserve it and you will want to, believe me. But beating up a mobster is probably not a good idea.”

I snuggled up closer to him. “I’ll try.”

“Well, I won't bother telling you not to talk back to him or argue with him. Cause I already know it is gonna happen.” Legend wrapped an arm around me. “But I am going to request that you try to ignore his ego.”

“I’ll try but he best not pick on you.” I kissed his bare chest.

Legend chuckled. “So I’m skunky now, huh?”

I laughed with him as I tisked. “Heck, no. You aren’t nearly as cute.”

We both cracked up at this idea.

“I’m sorry but growing a stripe on my ass is just not in the cards for me,” he joked.

This concept was too funny for me as I almost howled with laughter.

After a minute of my crazy giggling, Legend asked, “So whatever happened to Skunky by the way?”

I swiped away my tears of hilarity and replied, “Zed took him to his ranch. He now herds cows.”

“Not a surprise actually. The mutt had no fear, I do remember that.”

“Nope, so big ole bulls don’t scare him either.”

“Oh, I knew that already. If I ever met a human bull it would be Duke.”

Again, we chuckled.

“I love this,” Legend said as he too had a tear on his cheek. “Being with you. Being able to laugh and joke around. Just having you beside me.”

“Oh, well you may get sick of me yet. Cause you are never getting rid of me, boy.”

He smirked at me. “I haven’t been a boy for a while now, Glory.”

“Maybe, but let’s just say that I had planned for us to be like this ever since you were a boy.”

He smirked then braced my face with both hands to kiss me.

I fell into the kiss with breathless anticipation, rewarded with that yummy taste of Legend and his hot kissable mouth. Damn right, he was my boy, my man, my everything .

The kiss lasted until we had to come up for air.

Gazing into my eyes, he whispered, “Let’s get some sleep, little girl. We will probably be on the road to New Orleans tomorrow.”

“Goody,” I cheered. “Road trip with my man.”

Legend shook his head. “Glad you are back to calling me a man.”

“Oh, hell yeah, the way you handle me and make my body sing? Definitely a man.” I nodded my head.

With a wide smile, he caressed my hair as my head rested on his chest. “Good night, my Glory.”

“Good night, my Legend,” I whispered back as my throat swelled a bit. Tears filled my eyes, though I wouldn’t let them fall. They weren't tears of laughter. No, they were overwhelmed by feeling grateful tears. Legend and I are together. The thought repeated itself in my brain all over again…Here I was wrapped up in his arms, listening to his heartbeat while falling asleep with him.

I still couldn’t believe it.
