Chapter 42

**Lily**

After cleaning myself up a little, I crawled back into his bed where he was already. Matteo was checking something on his phone.

“Everything okay?”, I asked him when I settled in next to him, resting my head on his chest. He hummed but kept checking on his phone. So, I pinched his nipple to get his attention.

“Ah! What did you do that for?”, he asked, rubbing his nipple. I just laughed.

“Is everything okay?”, I asked him again. He nodded.

“Yes, it’s just business.”, he said, pinching the bridge of his nose with his fingers. I stroked his chest softly.

“So, tell me. You’ll feel better if you do. I promise.”, I told him. Matteo chuckled.

“I don’t want to bore you.”, he said and hugged me tighter. “Go to sleep, you will need it tomorrow.”

After breakfast, preparations started for the party tonight. Valeria and Guilia had asked me to join them, telling me that they had some business questions for me. I tried to resist, but they grabbed my hand and literally dragged me with them. I didn’t want to think business in my weekend, but these women were strong! But then I noticed we were not headed to an office, but instead they dragged me outside to one of the houses.

“Wait, where are we going?”, I asked them, but they kept walking fast. “Guilia? Valeria? What’s happening?”

They dragged me into a house and closed the door behind us. They started laughing like they were relieved.

“Thank us later, we saved you!”, Guilia laughed. I looked at them bewildered. What the hell was happening here?

“Trust me, you’ll be happy later. Matteo has a habit of making us do all the work for parties. So, everyone makes themselves scarce.”, Valeria explained. “It’s every man for themselves on days like this.”

“Besides, we have a spa appointment to get to.”, Guilia said. That would have been explanation enough for me to join them, no need for the secret stuff.

I owed Guilia and Valeria for today. Big time. I enjoyed today, the spa was very relaxing. Plus, the company was great. Conversation was easy with Guilia and Valeria, and they were able to tell me a few more embarrassing stories about Matteo. I was still smiling about those getting dressed for the party.

“You had a good time?”, Matteo asked after he sneaked up on me and slid his hands around my waist. I nodded.

“Did you know?”, I asked him. I was a bit surprised that he knew where I had been.

“Of course, nothing here happens without me knowing. Guilia asked me yesterday.”, he answered kissing my shoulder. I turned around in his arms.

“You look beautiful.”, he said, staring at me lovingly. I kissed him on his lips. He looked gorgeous himself in a tux. He intertwined our fingers and led me out of the room towards the party.

“Wait! Are people not going to ask about us? I mean, why am I here?”, I rambled, suddenly getting insecure. He kissed the hand he held.

“What others think doesn’t matter, Lily. I want you here.”, he said confidently, like it truly didn’t matter what other people thought. I wasn’t completely convinced but followed him anyway.

“Am I going to run into women you had sex with? Or had a relationship with?”, I demanded to know. Matteo chuckled.

“You’re the only one that matters. All the rest is in the past.”, he said, and continued walking. I guess he didn’t want to have this conversation, but suddenly the answer was important to me.

“Matteo…”, I whined. He turned around, slightly frustrated.

“Do you really want the answer to the question? I had sex with many women. Likely that one or more of them is an acquaintance of Chiara or Massimo. So what?”, he answered curtly. I already regretted asking but stayed quiet. He was right though, it shouldn’t matter, but his answer hurt my ego.

The silence between us was a bit awkward, so I was happy when a waiter offered me a glass of champagne. I loved champagne in the evenings. Not so much the day after, but I’ll worry about that when we get there. I downed the glass in one go, immediately grabbing another one. If I needed to face people Matteo had sex with, I needed some extra courage.

Straight after joining, Matteo went off to do some hosting duties and he left me on my own. His behavior told me I had stepped on his toes and angered him for some reason. But I’ll be damned to be the first to say I was sorry.

Well, hello glass number three!

I was watching people and sipping on my champagne when someone approached me.

“Hello, are you okay?”, a deep manly voice asked me. I turned around to see Ennio. I was glad to not have to deal with a stranger flirting with me, but Ennio made me nervous. The guy was even harder to read than Matteo.

“Yes. The place looks great.”, I said out of politeness and because I wouldn’t know what else to say to this intimidating man.

Ennio chuckled. “Yeah, everyone made sure to stay away. Matteo had the event planners do the decorating.”

So it was a true story after all! I smiled, looking up at Ennio briefly. He sighed.

“Look, I know my brother is a difficult man, but don’t give up on him.”, he said.

“Huh? What?”, I asked, but Ennio had already walked away without giving me an explanation of what he just said. I let out a groan of frustration, and grabbed another glass when the waiter passed me.

“Lily? Are you okay? You look a bit sick.”, Guilia asked me on my way to the restroom. I nodded and I continued on my way. It was getting very late in the evening, and the glasses of champagne just kept coming. I hadn’t seen Matteo since the beginning of the evening. Wait, I had seen plenty of him, but I hadn’t spoken to him at all. No, he was galivanting around the room flirting with all the ladies present tonight.

“Yeah, I’m fine.”, I said, walking straight into a wall. The wall moved and grabbed my shoulders to keep me from falling over.

“Lily? Are you okay?”, the wall asked. I had met this man before, but I couldn’t remember his name.

“I’m fine. How are you?”, I responded, and caressed him from shoulders to hands. “Come, let’s dance! I love this song!”, I shouted and dragged him onto the dance floor, starting dancing immediately.

“Lily?”, the wall protested, but eventually gave in. Until someone punched him in his face, and roughly yanked me away from my dance partner.

“Matteo! I swear I didn’t!”, he shouted, trying to plead his case, but Matteo punched him another time. Things were moving too fast for me, making me dizzy.

“You stay away from her!”, Matteo roared, and punched him another time. I think he might have punched him some more, but my dizziness made me vomit. Right there, on the dance floor.

“Shit. How much did you have to drink?”, Matteo asked me, as he picked me up and carried me inside the house. I couldn’t register where he took me, and I didn’t care anymore.

“Good morning sunshine!”, I heard someone say way too cheerfully. I groaned and pulled the covers over my head. I heard some movement and before I realized this someone pulled the covers away.

“No! The sun!”, I yelled, pulling the pillow over my head. There was a chuckle.

“Lily, it is past noon. Time to get up, cara mia.”, Matteo said. I felt his hand caress my back.

“I don’t want to wake up.”, I said. More laughing. Swiftly, he picked me up and walked us to the shower. Next thing I know, is drowning in the water. I panicked, and all Matteo did was laugh.

“You’re fine, Lily. You just need a shower.”, Matteo said as he put me down, and helped me wash my hair and my body. I moan softly because it feels so good to feel his hands massage my head. I reached back and grabbed his ass to pull it closer to me. I wiggled my ass against his dick which was already hard.

“Lily…”, he moaned, and his hands dropped to my breasts. He massaged them thoroughly, and I moved my hands to his dick to touch him. I fisted him as best as I could reaching behind my back. Matteo groaned next to my ear where he sucked on my neck.

He turned me around and lifted me up against the tiles. He positioned himself and pushed his dick in my pussy. I leaned back against the cold tiles. Matteo thrusted into me, and I felt him hitting the sweet spot that started to build this sweet desire in my core. Every thrust added to it, and before I knew it, I was on the edge of my release.

“I’m coming soon…”, I mumbled in between moans. Matteo didn’t respond, but he kept pumping in and out of me. I whimpered and the next thrust sent me over the edge. I lost myself in the sweet sensation of desire for seconds. I felt Matteo come soon after, and he fell with his head against my shoulder. He pushed into me a few more times to help me ride the waves of my orgasm.

“You…”, was all he muttered. Gently, Matteo put my feet back on the floor, and helped me clean his sperm of my legs and pussy. He turned off the shower and handed me a towel to dry off.

He sweetly kissed me on the lips, and we walked back to his bedroom.
