Chapter 20
Isabella
I start my day the same as yesterday. Me being Gio’s first breakfast of the day, then we have an amazing lovemaking session. We both eat a real breakfast in bed followed by a shower, skipping the bath. Shower sex is hot, and I don’t want to go a day without it. Being in his arm is my favorite place, of course, but having him buried deep inside of me, as becoming my second favorite.
I’m in the closet searching for my white ballet flats to match my baby blue sundress. I hope Gio packed them.
In the middle of my searching the doorbell rings. Gio’s dressed and sitting on the bed texting on his phone.
Then he appears in the closet behind me.
“I’ll get it, baby. Come out when you’re ready,” he says kissing me on the top of my head before disappearing. I finally find my shoes in my bag and head out.
When I walk out, I see Gio talking to Ace in the kitchen with Gigi tucked under his arm. She loves showing affection and receiving it. In our family, we show our love this way, our brothers are close with us, and we hug them all the time and give kisses on the cheek. The guys are always kissing us on the head or forehead too. I know she misses them like I do, that’s why she’s attached herself to Gio, Ace, Blaze, and Dusty. Gio knows this from when we were kids, and Gio explained things to the guys. They’ve been understanding and great with her.
I miss the closeness with people, and I don’t know how I’m going to feel when my brothers return to us. But I have Gio to fill that spot in my heart for now.
Gigi spots me and comes barreling towards me almost knocking me down. Thankfully, Blaze is sitting at the dining room table and sees it coming before I could brace myself. He gets up and catches us in his arms before we tumbled to the ground. The room erupts in laughter, and I hold my baby sister in my embrace.
“I missed you, sissy. Have you been having fun with Gio?” she asks innocently, and everyone looks at me. My face turns bright red immediately, and I bury my face in her hair. I don’t want to see everyone’s eyes on me. Do they all know what we’ve been doing in our room? Oh shit, I hope not.
“I missed you too, baby girl. Let’s go shopping. I need some sister time with you. And we need some more clothes for this hot weather here,” I say avoiding her question. She pulls back from me examining my eyes. “You’re not having fun here, are you?” she asks not letting it go.
“I didn’t say that, Gigi,” I say flustered, then change the subject. “We had dinner last night at the rooftop restaurant and watched the Disney fireworks. It was incredible. Gio said we could come back and take you to the parks.”
She squeals so loud it hurts my ears as she runs back to Gio jumping into his arms. Of course, we all laugh at her innocent. I follow her avoiding Jules’ scrutinizing look. She knows I’m hiding something and wants to know what.
“Can we really come back,” she asks him excitedly. I come up to his side as he answers her. “Yeah, Bella and I thought we could take you to Universal first. They have a Harry Potter section.” She squeals giving him a big hug smiling from ear to ear.
“We should make that another family trip, Beast. I want to go too,” Blaze says.
“I’m in. What about you, babe? You up for a day on the roller-coasters,” Ace asks Jules.
She’s babe now. I like that and that he cares for her.
“I’m in, but can we wait till the weather cools down. The heat here is horrible, and it’s wreaking havoc on my hair. How do you guys deal with it, you’re always wearing your black leather vest and jeans? The sun must bake on your back while riding on your bikes?” she asks them, and I laugh. That’s my BFF, telling it like it is.
“You get used to it. We can go at the end of October after bikefest in Daytona or earlier November before Thanksgiving when the weather cools down then, babe,” Ace says with a mysterious smile on his handsome face. He takes Jules under his arm and rests his hand on her shoulder.
With that all settled, I can see Gio’s ready to get out of here and start our day.
I grab my Louis Vuitton wristlet wallet from my large Neverfull tote bag.
My baby sister knows this is my favorite bag. She took it along with my Louis Vuitton backpack when she packed my things. Both are the Monogram Canvas style, and I have the wallets, wristlet and large makeup bag to match both.
I wish she could have taken all my handbags, shoes and clothes. I miss my Hermes, Chanel’s, Prada’s and all my other ones. But most of all I miss my black Louboutin red bottom heels.
Dad had my closet designed especially for me when I was a little girl. It’s an enormous walk-in closet to showcase all my shoes, handbags and clothes with wall to wall mirrors.
I miss my closet, maybe when Gio and I design our house, he’ll let me duplicate it.
I’m hopeful, I’ll have all my things back one day. My brothers will handle that when they come back to us, I’m sure. Then Gigi and I will go home and pack up our stuff, or they will and have it sent to us. That would be ideal.
Florida is our new home now with Gio, his brother’s and Aunt Cindy. I have nothing up north except our brother’s and bad memories. I can never live in our old home again after what happened there. Even if I didn’t have a new life here now, I would never want to go back.
“Baby, you good?” Gio asks me shaking me out of my thoughts.
“Yeah, sorry I was just thinking about my things back home.” He gives me a look of understanding.
“You and Gigi will have all your possessions back by the time our house is built. I’ll get your stuff myself if I have too. I promise you, baby.” He takes my hand in his and kissing me quickly on the lips before leading me out to the SUV.
Everyone’s settled in by the time Gio, and I make our way down. Gio tells us soon after we leave that we’re going to The Mall at Millenia. I’ve heard of it before; it’s apparently a big high-end mall.
Gigi’s heard of it too because she’s so excited. She hasn’t quiet talking animatedly to the guys about it since she heard the name. The poor guys are in for a full day of three women who love to shop, and one of them is a high energy teenager. They are going to wish they stayed at the resort.
“I’ll drop you all off at the doors and go park. I’ll meet you outside Starbucks,” Gio says as he pulls up close to the doors.
“I’m staying with you,” I say giving him a look that I’m not going to leave him. He grunts and nods.
“I’ll stay with you two. You guys good with the girls?” Blaze asks Ace and Dusty.
“Yeah, we’re good,” Ace says.
“Do you want me to get you a coffee or anything, sweetheart?” Ace asks me.
“Please, Jules and Gigi know what I like. Thanks, Ace,” I say, and he nods. He takes Jules and Gigi hands protectively and heads inside.
I like that he cares enough for both of them. It’s cute and funny too, to see on this big badass biker act like this with two girls.
Gio finds a parking spot in the back, far away from the doors we dropped them off at.
I like walking even in this Florida humidity, it’s nice to just be out and get some fresh air sometimes. Gio takes my right hand entwining our fingers and Blaze walks on my left side blocking me in.
“What the fuck’s wrong with you, man. This is screwed up, bring us here with three high maintenance chicks to shop.” Blaze hisses at Gio harassing him and making me laugh.
“No offense, sweetheart, shopping just ain’t my thing,” he says to me sincerely.
“Gigi’s always askin’ me to take her and the girls shopping, so I figure the girls needed this after everything. Grow a set of fuckin’ balls, man. It’s a couple of fuckin’ hours with them. You can deal.”
My little sister as my man wrapped around her little finger as tight as I do. You gotta love her for that. She has him taking us to the salon and shopping every other week since I’ve been better.
“Fuck man, you’re doomed. You’re not only pussy whipped by your gorgeous wife, but her beautiful little sister also has you by the balls. That little girl is goin’ be trouble when she gets older, just like her sister,” Blaze says laughing
On reflex elbow him in the side sticking up for my man. Even though Blaze spoke the truth, he needs to watch his mouth around me. He grunts like I really hurt him and Gio gives me a satisfied look.
“I would say that makes me one lucky man. To have not one but two special women in my life,” Gio says taking me under his arm and kissing my head. I wrap my arms around his waist and rest my head on his chest. Then I hear Blaze grunt beside me.
We make it into the glorious air conditioned mall finally and find the rest of our group. Ace hands me a Grande Iced Cinnamon Dolce Latte with nonfat milk and whip cream. I thank him graciously for the well-needed caffeine.
We get a few weird looks as we walk around. I ignore them I don’t know much about motorcycle club life, but I assume it’s just like living in the mafia life. Except, the Families don’t flaunt who they are, and Gio’s Club does.
The four men we’re with have their kuttes on showing everyone what club they belong to. The guys say it’s all good. The people in the area know them, and either respects them or fear them. Women want them, and most men want to be them. Either way, they know who Dragons Fury MC is and know they own this state.
Gigi squeals, oblivious to the conversation we were having about the ‘citizens’ and the guys club.
“Can we go into Victoria Secrets first? Please, please can we?” Gigi excitement is a welcome distraction as everyone laughs and her.
Gio gives her a nod making me smile. “Sure, you head in with the girls. The guys and I will hang out here,” Gio tells her.
Gio turns to me and takes my wristlet off my wrist and sticks a wad of hundred dollar bills inside. “What’s this for?” I ask him quietly, and he smiles at me.
“You and Gigi have fun and buy whatever you want. On me.” What is he doing? I have my own money, granted I don’t have any cash with me. He does have to pay for things for my sister and me.
“Gio, I have my bank card and credit cards. You don’t have to give me money.” I try to take my wristlet back from him to give him his money back, but he stops me.
“Baby, you can’t use your bank card or credit cards they can be traced that’s why you haven’t used them. Use the cash, you know I have plenty of money from dad, and I make bank with the club. It’s yours, we are married now,” he says taking my cards out of my wallet.
Then he hands it back to me and placing a kiss on my lips. He comes closer leaning into my ear. “Buy something sexy for me, baby.” He kisses me under my ear sending shivers through my body. He pulls back giving me a wink.
Gigi comes to me grabbing my hand dragging me away and into the store.
The girls and I have a blast choosing a few new bra and panty sets. Jules insists I purchase a white blinged-out angel bra and panty set I found.
I managed to sneak in a few sexier sets that Gigi didn’t see, per Gio’s request. I love the Dream Angel collection and hope Gio does too. We all picked out a little of everything: lingerie, clothes, perfume, creams, makeup bags, and totes.
Jules manages to get me alone while Gigi’s in the fitting room. I spill my guts to her about Gio and my private time. She says she had a feeling that was me screaming last night. She was in the living room with the guys in the middle of watching a movie - Gigi was asleep in the bedroom - they heard me yelling Gio’s name. I’m mortified. She said she covered for me as best she could. She told them I probably had a nightmare and they bought her explanation.
Gigi finishes up, and we get in line to check out tabling our sex talk for now.
After an hour of shopping, the girls and we emerge from the store. We’re each carrying four large Victoria Secrets shopping bags. We find the guys looking bored as they waited patiently for us. They take our bags like the gentlemen they are.
Gigi takes the lead, and we all follow her to the next store. Hollister is one of her favorite stores and our next stop. This time the guys join us to do a little shopping of their own.
An hour and a half later and four hungry, grumpy guys are happy we finished our shopping, for now. We need to feed the men or our girls shopping time will be over before it even starts. Lunchtime it is then.
The girls and I are holding quite a few bags each, so Blaze and Dusty offer to take them all to the SUV. Gio hands Blaze his keys and tell them to meet us at The Cheesecake Factory when they’re done. We’ll get a table and wait for them.
Gio takes my hand, I grab Gigi’s, and the five of us split off from them. From the corner of my eye, I see Ace taking Jules’ hand leading her through the crowd.
I’m surprised when we arrive, my man has thought of everything and set the table up for us, and they have it ready when we arrive.
The guy returns ten minutes later, and we all set to an excellent lunch together.
Ace receives a text in the middle of our meal, whatever it says it put a scowl on his face. His look worries me, and I look at Gio nervously and grab his hand squeezing it tight.
“What’s going on, man?” Gio asks him troubled.
Did Anton find us? No please, don’t let that look be about him. My breathing hitches and I drop my fork from my other hand and begin shaking. Closing my eyes I pray, please God let it be something else. Oh please.
“Relax, sweetheart. I see it all over your face. You're safe here with us, it has nothin’ to do with that,” Ace says, and I breathe a little easier as Gio wraps his arms around me kissing my head. I calm myself not to worry Gigi – seating beside me - anymore than I already have.
“That was Gator we got trouble with the Macks. He sent Snake, Skull, and Hawk to check out some things. He wants a conference call with us before dinner,” Ace tells the guys.
“Did you just say you guys are having trouble with the Muffins? That should be easy to take care of them. Just eat the good ones and spit out the bad ones. Jules and I can make a new batch when we get back if the guys want,” Gigi says innocently with a straight face and we all bust out laughing so hard my side hurts. Oh, to be young, innocent and naïve again.
She stares at us like we’ve lost our minds. After a few minutes, we finally compose ourselves.
“Ah, to be young again,” Ace says chuckling to Gigi.
“They’re not Muffins, Shorty. They’re another club out of Georgia, and they go by Rockin’ Macks. Don’t worry your little head about them. They’re not a threat, we can handle them.”
Obviously, the club is having a problem with another club. It’s club business, and I have no right to ask questions. I respect that, but I need to know Gio and his brothers will stay safe.
I lean into his ear. “I know it is club business and I won’t ask questions. Just promise one thing,” I ask backing up to look in his eyes. He nods, and I continue. “Promise me, you’ll always stay safe and come home to Gigi and me. I wouldn’t be able to survive if anything was to happen to you too.”
He takes my face in his hands and comes to me, so close he could kiss me. “I will always come home to you and Gigi. You never have to worry about that, baby. You’re stuck will me and so is Gigi.” The look in his eyes tells me he believes what he’s saying. His words are melting my heart and body.
He leans in the inch and kisses me passionately heating my body up for him. Gigi grunts her disapproval at our display.
“Damn, you two need to get a room,” Blaze laughs, and everyone joins in around the table. We separate with me blushing and finish our conversation and meal.
When we finish, it’s time to head upstairs to do some more shopping. Our next stop is Tiffany’s for Gigi. They have a bracelet she’s been wanting. Thankfully, they have the bracelet in stock. Gio purchases her the ‘Love Lock’ bracelet in sterling silver.
He asks if I want one too and I decline his offer. I’m not big on jewelry. I have my new wedding ring set and my diamond bracelet he gave me on our wedding day, and I also have my diamond heart pendant my parents gave me on my 10th birthday - that I never take off. I don’t need to wear anymore jewelry. The pieces I wear are special to me.
When we are done, Gigi wants to go to Abercrombie. Gio asks me if I want to go with them or go to Crate & Barrel with him for new bedding and a few other things. I opt to stop and look real quick then separate from our group and have some alone time with new my husband and shop for our new home.
After a quickly picking out a few things Gio and I separate from the group and head into our next destination.
We end up selecting a complete bed set is navy blue and with a gray diamond pattern. We also pick out curtains to match and a few feather pillows.
Since I miss my down duvet comforter from home, Gio and I selected one with a cover for our new bed he ordered.
Once the bedding is complete, we gather towels and rugs for our bathroom. I choose Gigi’s favorite color for hers along with accessories for the counter. With the bathroom done we head to the kitchen section.
Two hours later and we have new bakeware, cookware, cutlery, coffee maker, toaster oven, Ninja, Kitchen Aid mixer, and utensils. We also picked out a few other small appliances we are going to need for the house and will purchase them at a further date.
I’m excited to have my own kitchen and to be able to cook and bake for my family. I love being in the kitchen, it helps takes my mind off things. And I love to host dinners and have friends over. Having a big family now will be good to keep me busy.
Shopping with my man for our place has fun and exciting. I was afraid we would fight or stress each other out. That didn’t happen, and we agreed on pretty much everything. It turns out we have the same taste making the process easy and quick.
When we finish, and he pays for all our purchases and has the store ship everything to the clubhouse.
With the seven of us in the SUV, it doesn’t leave much room for our purchases.
I have one store I still want to visit before we head back to the resort.
Tonight is dinner and my tat. I’m ecstatic to finally have Gio’s claim on my body making it permanent.
He asked me last night where I wanted to have its place on my body. I told him I want it on my back left shoulder. I’ll be able to show it off when I wear a tank top or strapless top.
I asked him if I could get another tat while we’re there too and asked him to design it for me. I want a tat in memory of my parent’s. He said he would design it, but he’ll probably have to bring me back.
I can’t wait to see what he came up with for me. I just hope we can come back soon to have it done.
Gio texts Ace to meet us at Bath and Body Works. The girls and I shop while the guys wait for us by the door.
We hurry and make our selections.
Gio and I took a longer time than expected shopping because he didn’t realize there would be so much stuff to pick out.
It’s almost 5:00 now and they made our dinner reservations for 7:00. By the time we get back to the resort, shower, dress and drive to the restaurant, we’ll be cutting it close.
On the drive back I take Gio phone from its cradle on the dash. I turn on his Pandora app and play Today’s Hits station for Gigi.
Raising the volume for the girls and I sing along too. We made the guys crack up at our enthusiasm. Grace Ft. G-Easy ‘You Don't Own Me’ plays through the speakers. Gigi sings G-Eazy solo part amazingly, and I sing Grace’s. Jules sings the chorus with us because she hates her voice.
When the song is over, Gio lowers the volume.
“Baby, you still have an amazing voice, like an angel. Princess, you should sing more,” Gio says taking my hand in his and entwining our finger. He’s making me blush from his words.
“Gigi’s voice is better than mine,” I say to take the spotlight off me and turn to lookout the side window.
“Her voice is incredible too, baby. But yours….” Gio says as he takes my hand to his lips showing me his love instead of finishing his statement.
I can see the admiration shiny from his eyes. He really does love my voice.
“He’s right, sweetheart. Your voice is crazy good. Sing something else,” Ace says, and I clam up. I appreciate the appraising words, but I hate being the center of attention. I need to get the spotlight off me and turn their focus on Gigi.
“Let Gigi sing, her voice is much better than mine. She’s had training recently, I haven’t had training in years,” I say raising the volume up for Gigi.
One of her favorite song blare through the speakers and she sing flawlessly.
I stare out the window the rest of the way back. The guys try to get me to sing again, but I decline. Gigi sings a few more songs for us as we make it back to the resort.
Gio and I separate from the group and head to our room.
As soon as the door is shut Gio drops the bags I had him to bring in for me. He pins me against the side wall behind the front door.
His lips crush against mine devouring me in a hungry kiss. His desire for me is running ramped and to be honest so is mine. Our hands are wildly caressing each other’s body.
He breaks the kiss pulling my dress over my head. I grab the hem of his shirt dragging it over his. Then our lips collide in a passionate, lustful kiss. My hand slowly slide down his chest takes in every defining line and muscle. When I reach the waist of his pants, I stop before undoing his belt, unbutton, and unzip them.
I don’t know where all this brazenness has come from, but I’m going with it. I’ve never touch a man, let alone undressed him. Gio has changed me and my desires. I’ve never even been assertive before with anyone.
I love the way he turns my body on and the freeness I feel with him. I know I’m safe with him and he’ll let me do whatever I want to him. He’ll never judge me or tell me no. He’ll always give me free rein with his heart and his body.
He rips my thong off my body in a flash leaving me standing before him in just my bra.
He kicks his boot to the side as I push his jeans and boxers down to his ankles. He kicks them to the side as he unclasps my bra throwing it down the hall somewhere.
Out of nowhere his lifts me up by my ass and presses me into the wall.
“I have to have you. I can’t wait another second. Are you wet for me, baby,” he says as he slides his cock up and down my slit to feel my desire for him.
I nod not being able to speak from need. He can feel I’m dripping wet for him, he doesn't need my confirmation. He plunges in me abruptly, and I scream his name from the pleasure and pain of his sudden thrust.
He freezes his movement and kisses me so I can adjust to his size. Then he pounds into me like a jackhammer. Keeping one hand around my waist to hold me in place. His other hand is on my breast, fingers latching onto my nipple.
I have one of my hands on his back, and I can feel the scratches I’ve left on him before. My other hand is on his chest over his heart digging my nails in.
He trails his mouth down my neck, nibble, and suckling harder than he did before. The pleasure builds up in me, and I feel it coming fast.
I do love the feel of his piercing, it sets me off everytime. I cum hard yelling his name, seeing white spots in my vision as Nirvana flow through me.
At the same time, I yell banging starts on our door. I bury my face in the crook of his neck.
Gio stops moving in me, and I’m panting into his neck.
“Who the fuck is there?” he yells as he continues to have me against the wall, slowly.
“Sorry, man. Gator’s on the phone for that conference call,” Ace says, and I’m mortified as I bury my body into his.
“Fuck, come back in five minutes. I’m busy,” Gio growls as he carries me to the bedroom - in the back of the villa - not waiting for a reply.
He lays me on the bed and pumps in me fast and hard.
It feels marvelous, and I feel another orgasm coming on fast.
“Sorry, baby gotta make this quick,” he says looking in my eyes.
“Don’t stop, it feels amazing. Please, Gio, don’t stop,” I plead feeling incredible and never wanting this feeling to end. I want more. I need more, of him. I don’t think I’ll ever get enough or be close enough to him.
He goes at piston speed knowing what I need and chasing his own release. Before I know it I’m cumming with body rockin' shakes. My powerful orgasm forces him to cum with me.
I bit down on his shoulder to hold in my screams the best I can. He grunts burying his head in my neck.
We lay for a few minutes until our breathing is under control.
Then I head to the shower alone to get ready.
Gio lets the guys in, and they call Gator back.
