“Fuck me.” I said it so softly a butterfly wouldn’t have heard me.
“Say it again. But this time, own it.”
“Fuck me.” A little louder.
He let go of my hands. His fingers brushed past my breasts to my waist, where they pushed me down against his erection.
“You are so sweet,” he whispered, wrapping my other knee around him, pinning me with his hips. “
Dolce
. The way you don’t like to say the word fuck, and you say it to me anyway. I know how bad you want me to make you come.”
With that, he hitched me up and carried me to the vanity. He balanced me on it as he kissed me, grinding between my legs and driving me crazy. I yanked up my skirt.
“Antonio,” I said, “protection.”
“I have it.”
I spent a little time worrying about having sex with a man who carried condoms around. Just a second. Just a stab of my real self, the one who was going to walk out of that bathroom when we were done. He took half a step back and pulled my knees apart. I leaned back as he slipped his fingers under my garter belt, finding the crotch of my panties.
“I like these,” he said.
“Thank you.”
He poked his finger through the lace and yanked with his other hand. The lace gave way with a bark of a rip, leaving my underwear with a gaping hole. He stroked me. I didn’t know if I’d ever been that wet.
“I can’t help it. I have to taste you.” He put his face at the inside of my thigh and brushed his tongue on the sensitive skin. His hands stroked, tongue flicking, lips a soft center to the roughness of his face. When he made it to my pussy with a soft suck at my clit, I moaned. “Do you like it?” he asked before he circled my opening with his tongue.
“Yes.”
“Yes what?”
“Yes, suck it. Eat me. Take me with your mouth.”
The string quartet purred outside, and the party hummed along while I begged for a man’s tongue on me. His tongue flicked, finding every want, every emptiness, and filling it with sensation. He sucked just a little then ran the flat of his tongue over my clit until my pussy felt like a bursting balloon.
“Antonio.” My voice squeaked. I was on the edge.
“Come,” he said, looking up at me. “I’m still going to fuck you.”
When he put his lips on me again, his eyes watching me over the horizon of my gathered skirt, I let him fill me. I came hard, lifting my hips as he grabbed my thighs to keep me from falling over. I was beyond cries, beyond words. I was just a receptacle for the pleasure of a tiny percentage of my body.
I didn’t have a second to breathe before he positioned himself above me. His pants were open, and his dick lay against my engorged clit. I reached down. He’d gotten it out and wrapped while he was eating me.
“You’re very skilled,” I said. “And you’re huge.”
He put his fingers in me. I was sensitive and swollen, soaked in desire.
“You’re tight. So tight. Fuck.” His eyes went to half-mast, and he sucked in a breath. “Spread your legs all the way.”
I did, and he guided the head of his dick into me. I stretched when he thrust, a little sting of pain drowned by pleasure.
“You okay?” he asked.
I nodded. Maybe I should have asked him to go slow, because he shoved himself in until my expression told him he couldn’t go any farther. He shifted my hips then pushed forward. He found space to fill and drove into me up to the base, pushing his body into me. I put my hands on his face, and he leaned down. We were eye to eye, nose to nose, bodies moving together, the swell of tension returning.
“You’re beautiful,” I said, my thumb on his lips.
He kissed my thumb, running his tongue along the length as he fucked me. We were dressed up but joined in our most vulnerable places. My back hurt where it was pushed against the stone vanity, and my shoulder was jammed into a cabinet. I heard the sounds of the party, and one of my shoes was about to fall off. I felt ripped apart by the size of him.
But I was going to come again, and I couldn’t come with anything inside me. I knew that. It was an indelible fact.
“I’m coming inside you,” he gasped. “I’m going to come so fucking hard in you.”
“Me too.” I didn’t even believe it. “You’re making me come.”
The swirl of feeling dropped away then coalesced, increasing until my limbs stiffened and I put my face in his neck to stifle my cries. The impossible happened. I came just from a man inside me. I pulsed around him, drowning in the power of it.
He thrust hard with a grunt then a moan. I felt the pulse at the base of his dick on my stretched pussy. He was coming. Making that beautiful man lose himself in me felt like a gift. I pushed into him until he slowed, stopped, and kissed my neck.
“
Grazie
,” he said.
“You’re welcome.”
Slowly, he slipped his dick out of me. It was still rigid, and I felt every inch of it against my raw skin. He tied off the condom and wrapped it in toilet paper as I sat up.
“Stay there,” he said, pressing my legs open.
Was he going to have me again? I didn’t think I could take it. Though I was already feeling twinges of shame and guilt, I wouldn’t have turned him down. He balled up a wad of tissue and pressed it between my legs, cleaning me. The gesture was so much more intimate than the actual sex that I blushed.
“I can’t send you back outside with sex dripping down your leg, now can I?”
Despite the sounds from the party, I’d forgotten that there would be a “back outside.” I’d forgotten about Daniel, his meek request that I come back to him, and the air of forgiveness my attendance was supposed to provide. I closed my legs and sat up.
“I have to get back out there.” I put my left shoe on all the way and popped off the vanity. “Thank you.”
“My pleasure.”
The shreds of my underwear tickled my inner thighs, bunching as only ripped lace could. I straightened my skirt and smoothed my stockings, knowing he was watching me. I didn’t look at him as I went for the door.
He slipped between me and the knob. “Contessa.”
“Yes?”
“Don’t leave like this.”
“How should I leave?”
He kissed my forehead, and I let myself enjoy the tenderness. I didn’t want to rush out, but I couldn’t delude myself into thinking I was fully present, either.
“It doesn’t have to be meaningless,” he said.
“You won’t answer questions about your life, and I’m still in love with my ex. I don’t know how it can be meaningful.”
“I’ll answer one question right now if you kiss me back like you mean it.”
“Why are you doing this? You’re the one who wanted two bodies meeting and no more.”
“Because I can’t walk out of this room like this. You’re like a stranger all of a sudden. One question.”
“The girl. Who was she? To you, I mean? Why did you come here for her?”
“That’s three questions.”
“Pick one.”
“My sister. She’s my sister. Her name is Nella.”
“And?”
He bit his lip and looked down at my face. After a second, I realized he wasn’t going to answer me.
“Excuse me.” I pushed him away, but he shoved me against the door.
“I want my kiss,” he said.
“That was no kind of answer.”
“I answered two of the three. If you only cared about the last one, you should have said so.”
“Lawyer.” I said it like an indictment, and he smirked. I elbowed him, but he caught my forearms and pinned me to the door.
“Your underwear’s already ripped, and if I checked, I bet you’re wet again.”
“Get off me,” I said.
“I should fuck you right now.”
“Go to hell.”
I twisted, but his hands were bruising, and the growing hardness of his dick was enough to weaken my knees and my resolve. “Take your kiss then.”
He did, without hesitation or gentleness, prying my mouth open with his tongue, thick with the taste of my pussy. He pulled away when we had to breathe, and we stared at each other, panting.
“I hope you enjoyed that,” I said. “Now excuse me.”
He backed away from the door, and I went through it before he and his beautiful dick could stop me. The air outside the bathroom felt fresher and thinner. I smoothed my dress again and pulled the pins out of my hair, letting it fall down in a red cascade. It was easier to keep that way.
I felt a weight between my legs. I could easily get my appearance together for the rest of the party. But I couldn’t hide the fact that my cheeks were pink with arousal and my nipples stood on end. My arms still had goose bumps, and I was so wet I felt the moisture inside my thighs. But I walked outside as if it were my house, my party, my world, because that’s what I did. It was easier than math.
Dinner had started. Daniel was at his table with an empty seat next to him. He hadn’t mentioned the seating arrangements, but they shouldn’t have surprised me. Forgiveness didn’t sit across the room. He stood as I took my seat.
“Thank you,” I said. When our eyes met, I was sure he knew what I’d just done.
he next morning, two things happened simultaneously. One. A dozen red roses on Pam’s desk.
“Wow, these from Bobby?” I asked.
“They’re for you.” She tapped a pen to the desk blotter, as if writing a song in her head.
Before I could open the paper flap of the card, the second thing happened. I caught the image on my assistant’s screen of Antonio and me in the hallway. It had been shot through the window the moment before we kissed. Next to that image was one of Daniel and me sitting together at dinner.
I’d feared looking weak. I’d feared the op ed pieces about my neediness and desperation, about Daniel’s ambition and mindless drive for power. The inevitable comparisons to greater women’s choices about cheating political mates. Maybe I should have worried about looking like a whore.
“Who’s that?” Pam asked.
Who was he? I ran the question over and over in my mind, and I didn’t have an acceptable answer. He was a man I’d met the other day. He was a magnet for my sexual hunger.
“He’s being investigated for fraud,” Pam said, as if he was just a guy on the screen and not someone I had been standing so close to I could feel his heat. “Is he the same guy with the cars?”
“Same,” I choked. “What’s the article say?” I opened the envelope so I wouldn’t have to look at the screen. I figured the flowers were from Daniel, asking for another reprieve.
“Says you and Antonio Spinelli are friends through WDE. And you’re reconciling with Daniel Brower.”
“They used that word? Reconciling?” I looked at the card.
One more question.
No name. An arrogant avoidance of redundancy. I folded it back into the envelope.
“Yeppers,” Pam said. “Right next to that picture with the hot Italian guy. Sneaky.”
“Journalist. In Latin it means ‘to say everything while saying nothing.’”
“Really?”
“No. But if the ancients had known anything at all, it would.”
***
I’d gotten up and dressed like any other morning, expecting nothing more than the usual inconveniences. Traffic. Runny stockings. Coffee too hot/cold. Daniel and I had parted amicably the previous night, with him whispering “think about it,” in my ear. I promised to, and I would, but it was hard to think of Daniel when I woke up with a soaked, sore pussy courtesy of Antonio.
I relieved myself, fingers stroking the soreness. I loved the pain of remembrance. He’d been so good, so hard, and talking during sex was something new. I whispered to myself
fuck me fuck me fuck me hard
until I came, ass tightening, hips twisting, balancing my whole body on the top of my head and the balls of my feet.
Only when I took my first panting breaths, cupping myself in my palm, did I consider how poorly we’d parted. I couldn’t be with someone so closed off. Later at work, when Pam told me he was under investigation, I knew why he didn’t like being interrogated. I had her hold my calls for an hour.
One more question.
What would it be? More about Nella? Another reason to land in Los Angeles besides easy Bar exams? No. All that was too facile and obviously loaded for him.
I locked my office door. I had a million things to do, but none would happen while those pictures sat in my mind. I needed to solve all of it immediately with an internet search.
If I could have bottled the next hour in a fragrance, it would have been called frustration. If the size of the bottle contained the amount of information I found on Antonio Spinelli, it would be one ounce, not a drop more, and the contents would be worth less than the vessel.
In other words, one sidebar article in
Fortune
had not one undigested word. I found one professional photograph in which he looked gorgeous, an unsubstantiated complaint in the comment section of a real estate blog bitching about how many cars he had and how much property he owned, a short fluff piece about Zia Giovanna in the
San Pedro Sun,
and an investigative piece in the same paper from two years later.
The investigative piece was recent enough to matter. Antonio Spinelli, owner and proprietor of Zia’s restaurant, was under investigation for laundering millions through the establishment. The claim was absolutely impossible to prove, and apparently the money trail died before the reporter’s deadline.
