Moth to Flame

CHAPTER 14.2

My baby doll walked in an hour after I got ready. Frank, Luca, and Chanel came to talk as soon as they heard we were back. Mia had bought a cheesecake during her dinner with Abigail, so she doled out slices as they caught up.

My baby doll had changed into a clingy black dress that was backless. Luca was practically slobbering over her, but he wasn't touching. Her face was radiant as she made jokes with everyone. I wondered if she would ever look at me with such joy again? Scowling, I rubbed my chest because my f*****g dead heart was hurting.

I walked over and wrapped my arms around her, kissing her neck. She tried to pull away, but I held her in place. She smelled wonderful, like her usual strawberries and wildflowers. She wasn't wearing my necklace, though. It made me f*****g angry, but I held it inside.

Chanel pulled Mia away from me. "Ethan, share. You've had her to yourself for over a week. We missed her."

I snorted. "Didn't anyone miss me? I am your f*****g boss."

They all made smart ass comments about how I didn't cook or look good in a dress. I smirked and kissed the top of my baby doll's head. Once again, she tried to pull away from me but I held tight. Eventually, they got their fill and went to do some work, leaving Mia and I alone.

The first words out of her mouth shocked me. "This is my two weeks notice. I have a formal letter of resignation I will leave on you desk. If you hire someone soon, I promise to train them for you."

I laughed. "You're not quitting. I don't want another secretary. Why don't you just give up this f*****g charade and forgive me? We both know you will, you always do. Please, don't make this harder than it has to be." Apparently, that was the wrong f*****g thing to say.

"You arrogant asshole! That is one of the many reasons I'm breaking up with you. You think I'll forgive you for anything…"

That's all she got out before I grabbed her. I kissed her hard, sucking on her lower lip until she gave me her tongue. I licked into her mouth and she groaned. Her hands fisted in my hair, causing my d**k to leap in anticipation. I cupped her ass and pressed her into my erection. I kissed down her neck until I reached her breasts. I took a n****e in mouth through the flimsy fabric. Once again, she wasn't wearing a f*****g bra. My hand went to her bare lower back. She bucked against me, and I massaged her until she whimpered. Soon, we were struggling to catch our breaths.

"We can't keep doing this, Ethan. It's not good for either of us. We fight and make up over and over again. It's not healthy."

"I don't want to ever stop doing that. I want you forever. You're mine and no one else's. So we fight. What couple doesn't? I'll never stop loving you, Mia." I was a drowning man trying to hold onto the only thing that could save me.

I licked her neck. "Tell me you don't feel it. The electricity that goes through your body when I touch you. That same feeling courses through my veins too. We need each other."

I kissed her again. She had one hand on my chest and the other in my hair. My d**k was trying to get to her core. I wanted to f**k Mia until she couldn't remember anything. She broke away and smiled at me. It was my smile; the one that melted the ice in my blood. I was so happy that I picked her up and twirled her around.

"Let's go to the lair. I want to make love to you, baby doll. We've never done it in there before. It will be a christening."

She giggled. "That's blasphemous, Ethan. And here I thought you were a saint." We both laughed at that lie.

I picked her up and threw her over my shoulder. It took all of two seconds for me to put in the code. When we got inside, I set Mia down.

"Ethan, we still have a lot to talk about. I'm still unsure of where we stand, but I can't be without you tonight. My vibrator is no match for your skills."

My eyes bugged out of my head. She had tried to masturbate without me. That was not f*****g kosher. She only had to ask and I would have gotten her off. "Mia, you never have to turn to electronic devices. I'm always willing and ready."

She walked over and stroked my c**k. "I know," she breathed. "Can you do me one favor?" I nodded dumbly. I would do any f*****g thing she asked.

"Will you play the piano for me?"

Christ, I needed my c**k in her molten p***y now. I took a couple of breaths to calm down before agreeing.

We both undressed and changed into pajamas. I wore a pair of blue silk pants and Mia wore the top. I kissed her all the way to the piano. Next, I dipped a finger into her p***y and licked the juices. Her eyes widened which made me smirk

"What do you want to hear? I can play lots of things. I was accepted to Julliard after high school, but I turned them down to go into business." She looked impressed.

"I can't decide. Just play me something you like. We have similar tastes," she said.

I guided her to the bench. She sat beside me as I began to play. I chose Chopin, because the music had trills which would allow me to show off. It was also a sad piece, but I thought it sounded hopeful towards the end.

The music flowed out of my fingers. I added a few of my own changes. Mia f*****g loved it. She kissed my jaw and kept her arm around my waist the whole time. When it was over, she had tears in her eyes. I leaned over and kissed her.

"Ethan, that was beautiful. Thank you so much."

She stood up to straddle my lap, grinding her p***y on me, and making all kinds of erotic noises. I wrapped my arms around her and deepened our kiss and pulled the top over her head, exposing her gorgeous peaks. I took one of her breasts into my mouth, and she arched her back to give me better access. I licked and nipped every inch of her chest. My pants were constraining me, so I stood up and put the top down.

Seconds later, I laid her on the piano. One of my her delicate hands was playing in her dripping p***y. I got my pants off in record time. I moved her hand and replaced it with my tongue. I licked her c**t until she cried out. I inserted a finger and she came hard.

"f**k, Ethan. More please."

I f*****g loved it when she cursed. I resumed my stroking and licking, this time adding fingers. When I got three in she started riding my hand. She looked sexy as f**k laying on my black piano while I pleasured her. It was one of our mutual fantasies. The reality was much better. I pulled her legs over my shoulders so that I was able to push my tongue deeper. Mia was leaning on her elbows so that she could look down at me.

"You're so sexy, Ethan. I love you. Don't stop baby." Her words spurred me on.

I licked and sucked her to two orgasms before he legs gave out.

"You're so f*****g beautiful, baby doll. I love you. You don't know how much I missed that. You are my favorite meal."

She f*****g blushed. I smiled because it was my blush. She loved me again. Soon, I pulled her off the piano and kissed her mouth. She went for my tongue. My d**k was resting on her naked stomach, begging for access. She reached down to stroke me. I already had pre-c*m and wouldn't last long. I was pulling her to me when she stopped.

"No, I want you to hit it doggy style, Ethan. I love that shit."

I swear I f*****g died. I was stunned. My baby doll saying s**t like that sent me into overdrive. I spun her around, pushing her head onto the piano top. I bent down to kiss and knead her ass. She was still dripping, despite the licking I'd given her.

Snarling, I stood up and plunged into her wet heat. We both moaned.

"f**k, baby doll. You're always so f*****g tight."

Her p***y had my d**k in a vice grip. She was heaven and home. I needed it like I needed water. I pulled her hair as I pounded into her. Her creamy skin bunched and contracted with the force of my thrusts. I was pounding her so hard the piano moved a little bit. She met me thrust for thrust, her whimpers and moans my favorite song. I reached around so I could play with her c**t. She screamed as she came.

I wasn't there yet so I kept pounding into her. I trailed light kisses on her back and neck. She was whining again. I pushed harder, letting her feel my entire length. I made sure to hit her G-spot. She was close again. I grabbed her breasts and alternated between squeezing and cupping them. We were making primal sounds. Every time we made love, it sounded like something you'd hear on a safari.

"Ethan, I'm close. Harder. f**k me harder." I complied. I bit her neck as I thrust up into her tight p***y over and over again. I didn't want our f*****g to ever end. Mia's walls clenched again as she came hard.

"Ethan!!! I can't!"

I pulled her closer to me. "Yes you can. You're my lover. I love you, baby doll. You're the sexiest woman alive. I want you to be mine forever. Your p***y is the best I've ever had. Come one more time for me. Get me off."

My words must have worked because she started pushing her hips towards me. The sound of our flesh slapping together reverberated around the room. I buried my head in her hair, breathing in her unique scent. She reached around to grab my thighs, which helped guide the pace. I was so f*****g close. I growled and bit down on her neck as my jizz erupted deep in Mia's walls, triggering her orgasm. We both screamed.

"f**k, Mia!!!" That's all I could get out because it felt so goddamn good. She collapsed on the piano, and I fell on top of her. We stayed connected until we calmed down.

When I could move, I pulled my d**k out of Mia and turned her around. I kissed her so hard that I was sure it would leave bruises. She just clung to me and returned my affection.

"So, do you still want to quit? I need you, baby doll. I would never let you go. I would stalk you and follow you to the ends of the Earth. You know I would."

She smiled. "I see my caveman is back in full force. I love you, but it's complicated. I still think we need some time apart."

I pulled her back to me. "No we don't! I dream about being with you forever, baby doll. Well, that and you naked and writhing. I want everything you want. Don't give up on us."

She kissed my chest. "Ethan, no matter what happens, this has been one of the best nights of my life. Most of my most memorable moments involve you. Remember, I love you forever. You deserve to be loved. You aren't a monster."

She was looking up at me with her soulful eyes. Something was wrong. Why hadn't she forgiven me? I was scared shitless, but I put it out of my mind to enjoy tonight. We would have tomorrow to talk. I had the ring, and I was going to spend the day with her and then pop the question.

She took my hand and let me into the bathroom. "How do you want to bust a nut, Mr. Sodero?"

I pushed her up against the wall and proceeded to show her what talking dirty would get her. After several orgasms between us, we got out of the shower. We ate leftovers and chatted. I was starving, and she scolded me for being a little piggy. I just kissed her cheek. She was my reason for being.

The days without my baby doll just showed me how important she was to me. I was now a humbled man. This was the woman for me. There would never be another. We watched a little television before heading to bed.

I thought we would sleep, but my baby doll was voracious. She couldn't get enough. My d**k barely had time to recover before she attacked me again. I wasn't f*****g complaining, though. She rode me for hours. I fell asleep still inside her sweet p***y.

We f****d in every position we knew. My back was f*****g sore and my legs were killing me. She wasn't going to be able to walk in the morning, but her beautiful face was glowing with her bliss. I smiled, because I'd do anything to make her happy.

Our lovemaking was almost feverish. Every time I thought I had tired her out, she woke up and went for me again. Eventually, I couldn't take anymore and had to ask her to stop. She pouted at first, but curled on my chest and fell asleep later. I heard her mumbling my favorite words before I passed out for good. I was so tired I fell into a dreamless sleep.

When I awoke, my baby doll was gone. I had a goofy smile on my face. The clock showed it was after eleven in the morning, which meant that we had spent over twelve hours making love. I could barely move, but I felt rejuvenated.

I didn't hear anyone in the bathroom, so I dragged my ass up and went to the kitchen. She wasn't in there either, so I thought that maybe she went to get us something for breakfast. I texted her, but her phone was out of service.

My stomach dropped. Something bad had happened. I returned to the bedroom. That's when I saw an envelope. The Tiffany's box was sitting on top of it. I opened it to reveal Mia's birthday gift. My heart broke. I knew what this s**t meant, but I read the note:

Dear Ethan,

I love you so much. You were my first lover. You awakened my body to pleasures I didn't even know existed. I will never forget you. It's just all too hard right now. I thought I could handle what we had, but I can't. It's not even the Mafia thing that scares me. It's my insecure belief you'll leave me. I can't take the risk.

I know you mean well now, but what about in the future? I wanted us more than anything, but I have to be realistic. You were right all along. We're too different. Love can come on strongly and then fizzle out quickly. I didn't want that to happen with us.

You're an amazing man, Ethan Sodero. Please forget me and move on. I'm leaving the city next week. If you love me, you'll let me go. I promise to keep myself safe. I won't ever forget you. You made me happier than I've ever been in my life. Please don't come after me. There's nothing you can say that will change my decision. Making love to you last night was amazing. There will never be another, I promise. It breaks my heart to do this to you, but it's for the best. Please hug your family for me.

I love you so much. I love you. I love you. I always will. My letter of resignation is on your desk. Every gift you ever bought for me will be left at your penthouse. Your love was enough. I don't need any reminders. We will probably have to see each other again eventually but hopefully not soon.

Please don't hate me for leaving you like this. You don't know how hard it was for me to pull myself away from you. I knew you would never let me go otherwise. You were truly my best friend. I will always love you. You have my heart forever.

Love,

Your baby doll

I cried like a f*****g baby. She was gone. The f*****g darkness was back. I was in hell again, and this time no angel would come to rescue me.
