Chapter 22

Gabriele

Yesterday Heather almost drowned herself. This made me have a sleepless night tossing and turning because it felt like I was on the edge of losing her. Early the morning, before the sun came up I was awake staring at the ceiling. Luca was going to work on a project for school with friends, he said that he didn't want to bother Heather so he is going to his grandmothers. I think he can sense she is a little off after the accident. The accident which I blame myself for.

I couldn't bear to see her so distraught and I knew she loved me and I loved her.

About an hour later after contemplating my choices, my door opened and Luca tiptoed in. He plopped himself onto my bed and scooted to my side, I wrapped my arm around him kissing him on the head.

"You're awake early buddy." He hugged me closer.

"Will Heather be okay, daddy?" I frowned.

"Yes, she'll be okay."

"Is she going to be my mommy now?"I sighed, he needs a mother figure but Heather and I are far from getting married with everything that is going on. I knew he missed his mother and that he knows something isn't right with her not being here.

"Not yet buddy, do you want her to be your mommy?" He nodded eagerly.

"Heather will be the perfect mommy for me, and she makes you happy daddy." He jumped off the bed heading to the door, he left and a few minutes later he came back with an empty bowl.

"The cereal is finished." I huffed, this boy eats the same amount of food as an elephant and sometimes more. I stood up out of bed rubbing my chin sleepily.

"I'm coming." I turned my head to the side. I realized he figured out that I and his nanny had something going on, he didn't think it's strange but he's just 6 years old. A very intelligent 6-year-old.

I walked down to the kitchen and found bagels I could toast, along with some eggs and a few sausages. I heard footsteps trail down the stairs, sleepy Heather entered the kitchen. She looked hella sexy, even in sweatpants and a baggy t-shirt. She had a bit of bed hair, but still so sexy.

"Good morning Luca and Gabriele" I pouted a little, I wanted a kiss but she knew Luca was there. Oh well, he knows she and I are kind of together.

I turned around and walked a step until I was in front of her, in my arms I took her and gave her a deep kiss she pulled away and looked at Luca wide-eyed. He scrunched up his nose while taking a bite of his bagel but he didn't say anything.

"Woah what was that?"

"A kiss my dear" She rolled her eyes, it made something stir in me.

"I know that but not in front of Luca." She whispered harshly, I shrugged and whispered back in a sing-song voice.

"He knows." She gawked at me and I just shrugged, we were pretty obvious if he could notice that. It's not like he's been living under a rock and he knows how love looks, daytime television ruined his innocence in a sense.

I handed her the plate and winked at her, she was pale and thinner than I was used to. She wasn't sick anymore and she was doing fine, she just had to stay on some precautionary medicine for a while to make sure she stays this healthy. The medicine made her this thin and I knew she tried to avoid the mirror this morning, it broke my heart knowing that I did this to her.

I got dressed after breakfast, Luca came to me and looked at his shoes wanting me to help him tie them. I kneeled in front of him when Heather came in.

"I should show you a trick on how to remember that." I finished doing the one shoe when she bent down beside me taking the shoelaces in her hands. Luca was staring at her, completely bedazzled by her, just like I was.

"First you make a loop, it's the tree and then you take the other lace, the bunny. The bunny goes around the tree and into the loop he made." She smiled at him and pulled on the laces.

"All done."He thanked her and hopped away. I stood up helping her up, she was radiant and beautiful. The knock on the front door made me snap from my gaze. I jogged downstairs, my mother stood at the front door.

"Hi there honey, is Luca ready to go?" I nodded. Heather came downstairs.

"Oh hi Heather, you're in early..."My mother gave me a look and looked between Heather and I. I didn't tell her Heather was staying here but she knew Heather went through a traumatic time. One day I visited her and broke down telling her how I missed Heather. I know she knows I love her but she decided not to mention it.

"Oh, I see",

"Heather, you should be gentle on him. He hasn't been real active in the past six years, and frankly not at all so you just have to wait until his spirit...lifts." My eyes almost bulged out of my eyes. That's not why she is here.

"Smettila ti mettendo in imbarazzo me mamma" ( Stop embarrassing me mom) I grunted at her in Italian, she shrugged.

"Godetevi il vostro figlio di giorno." ( Enjoy your day). Luca came down, he had his backpack slung across his shoulders. He hugged Heather and me before he left.

Heather was still pink from what my mother said.

"Excuse my mother, she sometimes says things she shouldn't." She smiled at me. I encircled her in my arms and kissed her. The taste of her sweet lips had me spellbound. That had my spirit lifted. I pushed her against the wall and kissed her sweetly along the lines of her collarbone. She turned her neck to give me full access and pushed her up a little so that she wrapped her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck.

"Are you sure?" I asked shakily between breaths, it's not something we should rush but the burning desire between us was just too much. Now was not the right time but it could fill the void between us.

She nodded and returned the kiss. I walked upstairs and opened my door and gently laid her down on my bed. Her eyes glinting in lust. I lifted up her dress, pulling it off, she looked at me and then untucked my shirt. Her fingers softly trailed over my chest. I noticed the black and red underwear she was wearing.

"Oh, so this is why you asked me about that the other day," I mumbled remembering how she asked if I liked the color. I walked to the chest beside my bed, unlocked it and got out a pair of bright blue cuffs I had.

"Just like we practiced before." She gave me a smile and she gave me her wrists, I cuffed her hands to the bedpost she looked a little wary, it's scary to know that someone else has complete control over you.

I pulled off her bra and my eyes scanned over her. She was beautiful. She gasped when my wet lips met her skin. I kissed a trail down her shoulders along her collarbone, she groaned and let out a soft moan when I placed little kisses down her stomach.

"I shouldn't have agreed to this kind of pleasure." She stifled another moan tilting her head back and closing her eyes as she stilled, I trailed another kiss on her bare shoulder.

"I guess it's too late" With a mischievous smile spreading on my face I continued to kiss her, I leaned over to make sure her cuffs were on tight. I was in charge for tonight. I wanted to do so much more binding but there were just some boundaries we set which I couldn't cross.

"I guess so." She mumbled with her eyes still closed. My hands trailed on her hips, I kissed a trail along her underwear and she tried to move her hands but couldn't. She sighed. I like to make her frustrated. I slowly took off her underwear and threw them on the ground. I  still had my jeans on, she tried to get to my buckle but couldn't. I raised my eyebrow and unbuckled my jeans, giving her a little strip show. My jeans were now gone. I grabbed the foil package from the drawer and put it on. I took off my boxers and she studied me from top to bottom. Her green eyes becoming vibrant in the light.

I didn't bind her feet, she took that opportunity and wrapped them around my hips.

"Anxious now aren't we?" She glared at me.

"Well, Mr. six years no sex, I am very anxious for that," Her eyes were set on my hardened member. With that, I slid into her and she groaned deeply. She pulled against the cuffs but didn't fight it, she relaxed and moved with our rhythm. She shut her eyes as the tension started building slowly. She stifled a few groans but kept her eyes shut. The heat was making beads of sweat form on our bodies, it made her hair cling to her face.

I took the opportunity and placed my mouth over her breasts, circling them with my tongue.

Her arms bucked against the cuffs, she wanted to touch me but couldn't except for her legs wrapped around me, she was pulling so hard against the cuffs that she'd have bruises if she didn't stop.

She arched her hips up begging for more, and that's exactly what I gave her. I moved at a faster pace, the tension building up quicker. Sweat beading down and my tongue trailed down her body as I thrust harder.

I couldn't take it anymore and felt her stiffen beneath me. She let out an audible moan when she reached her peak, mine followed a few seconds later, I now realized how much I missed having this kind of sex. I released from her and uncuffed her as she looked at me for the first time, her breathing erratic and her need still evident in her eyes. She rubbed her wrists as I threw the condom in the trash. I lied back on the bed.

"That was-" I started to say and she turned to me.

"Amazing. Where do you keep your ties?" I frowned.

"The first drawer, why? If you mean rope then look in the chest"She took one of the sheets and wrapped it around her walking to the drawer, she grabbed a purple tie. The same tie I wore at her sister's wedding. I couldn't help the cheeky smile spreading on my face.

"What are you going to do with that?"I breathed out, still breathing erratic.

She climbed on top of me, she tied my wrists up with the tie and made it tight. I didn't fight it.

"I've been waiting so long to do this." I luckily recovered from the first round already and she smiled at my evident desire. Her naked body straddling me was sure to satisfy my craving, one I've been holding onto for six years. All I wanted now was to make her scream my name again and again.

"It's my turn now." She made sure I was tied up correctly and took control, her green eyes darkening. She continued kissing me until she reached nether regions and took me into her mouth.

I think I've created a monster, but I'm not complaining.
