SharingGianna (10 page)
Authors: Lacey Thorn
Tony tensed over her. His cock plunged deep and he held it
there, giving tiny thrusts of his hips to press his cock as far in as her pussy
would allow. She arched her back off the mattress, pressing even closer to him.
His orgasm fed hers and she swore she had a brief out-of-body experience. It
was that amazing, that soul searing.
Tony shifted slowly, rolling to his side and taking her with
him. His hand smoothed down the side of her face, pushing her hair out of the
way so he could cup her cheek.
“I don’t want you to leave, Gianna. We don’t. When this is all
over and Stephano is finally awake and out of the woods, we don’t want you to
go.”
She caught her breath as tears filled her eyes. Was it
possible that they wanted the same thing that she did? That they wanted to see
where this led to?
The bed dipped as Gabe joined them again.
“What he’s saying is that we don’t want what we have between
the three of us to end. If you have to leave for work or something, we’d like
the opportunity to go with you.”
“You have to admit that there’s something here. That this is
about more than great sex.” Tony moved, pulling his cock free and sliding his
legs off the bed so that he was sitting beside her.
Gianna took a deep breath and let her gaze go back and forth
between them.
“I know you heard what I said to my mother in that garden. I
don’t know how that affects anything…”
“Are you talking about the shit you went through as a kid,
Gianna? Christ, I’d give anything to have been here back then. I’d knock the
shit out of a lot of people.”
Gianna smiled at Tony’s words. It was easy to see that he
meant every one of them.
“No one should ever have to face the things you did at such
a young age. Looking at you and knowing just a small portion of what you’ve
been through to get here only makes you more beautiful.”
Her eyes filled with tears. “I can’t have children. Any man
that I…form a relationship with will have to know that. I won’t be able to give
him kids.”
Tony’s arms tugged her against his chest and Gabe’s hands
reached out to stroke her head and shoulders.
“You think that matters?” Gabe questioned. “You are more
than enough for any man.”
“Or two,” Tony added and she could hear the devilment in his
voice.
She tried to laugh but it was a watery sound. “But—”
“No,” Gabe said. “There is no but.”
“Except for that fine ass of yours that I love so much.”
This time Tony’s wit won out over the tears and she giggled.
“That’s better,” Tony said. “No more tears for you.” He used
his hands to wipe the remaining moisture off her cheeks.
“Unless they’re the good kind. The ‘Oh my God, you are so
amazing, I’ve never had it so good in my life’ kind,” Gabe added.
Gianna laughed again. He heart felt so light. “I’m sure I’ll
be able to muster up a few of those, under the right circumstances.”
“So what are you saying?” Gabe probed.
“I’d already planned to stop modeling before I knew about
Stephano. I just didn’t know for sure where I wanted to go.”
“We’ll go wherever you want to,” Gabe assured her.
Tony nodded. “We don’t have any place we need to be.”
“I’d like to stay here. I think it’s past time I came home.”
She reached out, touching both of them with a hand. “I’d like for you guys to
stay. I… Well, I’d like to see what we have. See what it can be.”
“Are you sure?” Gabe asked. “There will be talk. About you
with both of us. No matter how discreet we try to be.”
She sat up. Just as she’d had her concerns, it seemed they
had too. “I don’t want to be discreet. I’m not going to walk in the shadows and
pretend just to make my life okay for someone else.”
“What about your family, Gianna?” Tony voiced the question
softly.
“I told my parents today that I was dating both of you. I’ll
admit that they don’t realize what that means. They think I’m playing the
field. But when the time is right, I’ll tell them.”
“We’ll tell them,” Tony said and Gabe nodded his agreement.
“You’re not alone anymore,” Gabe promised.
The phone rang, interrupting what Tony had been about to
say. He reached for it and brought it to his ear.
“Russell.” She almost laughed at how he answered with his
last name instead of a simple hello. Her brothers had a tendency to do the
same.
His sat up straight. “When?”
His glance moved to her and had her sitting up straight as
well.
“We’ll be there soon.”
He hung up and tossed the phone aside.
“What? What’s going on? Stephano?” Her breath caught and she
couldn’t voice the remaining questions that wanted to tumble off her tongue.
“Your brother’s awake,” Tony stated.
“Oh my God,” Gianna gasped.
“Dante said the family is heading up there now.”
She laughed. Her life had gone from a state of fear and
uncertainty to one of sheer joy. She was no longer undecided on what to do with
her future. She was coming home and planned to work with Phoebe on new designs
as well as upgrading their website. She might even call in some favors and put
on a fashion show of her designs.
She’d mended fences with her mother. They would both be
better at communicating from now on. Her family loved her and wanted her back.
Stephano was awake and if she knew her family, he would be up and on his feet
before anyone expected. Marquettis were survivors.
And now she had Gabe and Tony. There were a lot of what ifs
and possibilities where they were concerned. Both good and bad. But she was
content to sit back and see how things went. She had a feeling that it was
going to be a fun time finding out. She had been graced with an amazing
opportunity. For love, fulfillment and a life she’d never dreamed possible.
“What are we waiting for?” she demanded as she bounced out
of bed and headed to the bathroom.
Both men watched her and she giggled as she put an extra
wiggle in her hips. Two male groans filled the air.
This
,she
thought, answering the question she only voiced in her head. She’d been waiting
ten years for this.
Lacey Thorn spends her days in small-town Indiana, the proud
mother of three. When she is not busy with one of them, she can be found typing
away on her computer keyboard or burying her nose in a good book. Like every
woman, she knows just how chaotic life can be and how appealing that great
escape can look. So toss aside the stress and tension of the never-ending to-do
list. For now, sit back, relax and enjoy the ride with Lacey as she helps you
to unlace and unleash the woman inside.
