“No loyalty...” He quoted her in a mumble, lips pressing into a thin line. It was a struggle to confess how he felt for her, beyond seeing himself as weak. Feelings have been pushed away ever since he ended his past relationship. So how would the wording without giving away how he felt turn out? Dante’s inked hand ran through her chocolate strands of hair, tips reaching the scalp to lightly caress it. His free hand slid up her frame to grasp her jaw gently, forcing her to meet his dark gaze.
“Don’t you dare to say there is no loyalty here.” He’d stain his hands in blood for her if he had to, but confession frightened him deep within. “I don’t keep women around me, Aria. If I wanted you only for a good fuck, I’d not have you here. I’d call you like I used to call whores before. But this is not the case.” Their sex was intense, filled with passion and heat they both exchanged, but he knew she was worth more than ending up on someone’s bed. “We fight because you don’t learn to fucking listen when I want you to for your own good. But I lose my patience very quickly. Do I fucking need to explain myself when you have seen what I am?” He quizzed in a dry mutter, his head cocking to a side as his gaze narrowed while it felt to the sight of her luscious lips.
Her questions made his jaw tighten, grabbing a handful of her strands of hair. The thoughts alone made him feel the anger in his stomach and his blood boil. Claiming ownership of a woman was nothing but senseless in his mind, but Dante hated the minimal thoughts of someone approaching Aria. “Don’t provoke me, because if you give me names or describe their faces to me, I’d have their heads on a platter before you for touching you.”
