The Grand Mistress

Primo retreated to accommodate the old lady's request. He closed the bathroom's door and went to sit on the coffee table near the veranda and have Marie pour him a glass of the ginseng tea.

"I hope you didn't scare the Miss a lot," Marie commented, knowing how Primo naturally scared the hell out of everyone he meet in Devon's City, specially the ladies. She can't blame them though, Primo's reputation could naturally make a woman be scared at him even before their first meeting. He was known for being notorious, hard and scary being the youngest captain who had victoriously won over the dangerous rebel groups. Not only that, after he came out from the military, he pursued a career in law and had been known for being such a perfectionist boss and businessman. "If you are only half scary than you are, then I wouldn't have to worry about you dying alone,"

"Marie, you should spend less time talking with grandfather," Primo told her as he sat and drank the tea she offered. "That old man is injecting many unnecessary thoughts on you,"

"They are not unnecessary thoughts son," Marie pressed on it. "I'm already old, so is your grandfather. Would you let us die without seeing your heir?"

"You'll have it soon," Primo told her, this time his voice sounded determined and Marie sighed satisfactorily at the expression that went on his master's face. It seemed that he had indeed taken some serious liking of the woman he brought because for the first time, he did give her an assurance they'll have the heir they had been demanding of him for many years already.

"Ah I'm so glad to have heard that today," Marie went on and poured him another glass of the ginseng tea the servants carefully made for him. "Drink more, this will aid you in your goals,"

Primo could only shake his head and heed Marie's request. Even when she was only a servant, he treated her like his second mother and so she had all his respect. Primo wanted to chat with her a little longer but the bathroom door flew open and the servants who then were attending Gabriella exited.

"Master, the Miss is finished," The senior of them announced and gave Marie a meaningful look before she opened her mouth again. "We shall take our leave so you and the Miss can have your rest,"

"I'll come with you girls," Marie then was desperate to leave the two. She wanted to check on Gabriella personally but thought she can have time with her tomorrow so she'll just delay it. Primo and his woman need their time then. She then gave Primo one last glare "Finish that cup and do well,"

Primo could only shake his head again at his old woman's charge and watched the servants leave the room. Soon, Gabriella appeared hesitant from the bathroom door wearing a white robe as her long curly hair was neatly combed at her back. She looked like a real angel then that Primo could only helplessly stare at her for minutes.

"Come and sit here," Primo invited as the coffee table was filled with food. Some servants placed it earlier while Marie was serving him tea. "Eat while the food is warm,"

Gabriella did not refuse. Her stomach was already calling for her and the view of the delicious food only made it worse. The girl sat opposite to El Tigre and because she was really hungry, she wanted to devour all the food mercilessly but the man was making her conscious. She can even feel her hands shaking as she was charging her utensils in front of him but she tried her best to act naturally.

Her tension didn't go unnoticed in El Tigre's eyes and immediately he thought of what Marie had said. It never bothered him once how women view him and so he was never concerned about him being fearsome, not until then when he can see Gabriella's fears.

"Dulzura…." He called for her attention as she had intentionally fixed her eyes on the food and ignored him. "Do I scare you?"

The question hit the girl and for a moment. She slowly raised her head and looked at him, "I'm….I'm trying not to be scared…"

Primo was relieved at her words. Earlier when he told her his intentions, she went really quiet, and he ended up wondering what she thought about his confession. Her trying to make an effort to build a connection to him gave him enough assurance that although their relationship needed much work, she was willing to cooperate. At least she didn't reject him, so that was a good start to begin with.

Gabriella on her part was honest with her words. Although she was still not sure about Primo's intentions despite his words, something within her wanted to try it out. Who knows it might work out well? Besides, although he scares her—a lot—he was somehow irresistible and he had given her enough warmth tonight that made her want to hope for something. Also, she was tired of resisting as he was so persistent so she wanted to give him a chance.

"I'm okay with that. I'm okay with you trying..." Primo announced with a smile that only made him more irresistible than he already was. With the undeniable attraction she felt, Gabriella could only withdraw her eyes to shut off the rising sensation rising in her stomach. She then focused herself with the food until her stomach was full. When she was finished, Primo had someone clean up the table while Gabriella retreated to the bathroom again to brush her teeth.

The girl stood up the big sink in the bathroom and brushed her teeth slowly, hoping to delay the routine so it would be too late to do something else tonight. She was very aware of the threat of another hot venture and she felt like she would end up being hypocritical for refusing him when at the end she would only succumb to the temptation. Primo, although he was scary—was a very handsome man and only a woman not of sound mind could resists him when he makes sexual advances. Gabriella then who was very aware how he was so good in bed, plus the idea that he got her all cornered knew very well it would only take Primo little effort for her to surrender into his arms so as much as she could, she dare not go to that part where he can seduce her to it.

While she was all contemplating how to end the night without them sucking each other, Primo entered the bathroom. He only gave the Monteria heiress a little glance before he passed through her and stood at the entrance of the shower. Since Gabriella was facing the mirror, she could all see him and in a moment, her jaw dropped when Primo, without warning, undressed—like totally—as he readied himself for the shower. In a moment, his hot muscular muscles, so was his hot ass, was flaunting in front of her eyes.

Shit man! 

Gabriella cursed under her breath that she ended up choking with the bubbles in her mouth. She coughed mercilessly at the sink and instantly lowered her head to spit all that she had. As she was doing so, she felt some hard hands caressing her back and she very well knew it was Primo. That only gave her more of the panic and immediately she dismissed him.

"I'm okay," She said, trying not to peek at his nakedness. "Sorry,"

"Careful," He said, still caressing her back and sure it felt so sensual now that Gabriella knew he had nothing on. 

"I'm really okay, go and take your bath," She pushed him away and since she was trying not to look at him, she did not see his devious grin. 

"Alright," Primo replied and went back to the shower. However, he made sure not to close the curtain and that the girl could see all of him. 

She had made him so hard since earlier and he wanted to really sleep with her tonight but of course didn't want to force his beautiful angel. So he was trying then, perhaps a little seduction can make her want to reminisce about their sweet escape in Mondrew City.

Gabriella could only sigh helplessly at the thought of Primo naked in her back. She already heard the shower being turned on and so she knew he was busy with his bath. Curious and already tempted, she could not help herself but check out the beautiful Adonis at her back. As she raised her head back to the mirror and continued brushing her teeth, she shamelessly peek at him. Her eyes first landed on his ankles that sunk on the wet floor then slowly went up to his thighs where his big sex was standing proud and hot. Her eyes went so big at the sight of it and she immediately swallowed and withdrew her eyes. Her face went red.

Very tempted, she peeked at him once more but wanted to skip the thing between his thighs since she cannot handle more of it. So the next time she dared to peek at him, she lavished herself with his abs for minutes before she checked out his chest and was almost drooling at how beautiful of a man he was. Primo was well sculptured in all places that for once she wanted to congratulate the one who made him. God! What a jaw dropping beautiful being. 

Gabriella's eyes went for more and this time her eyes travelled to his face only to be welcomed with his tiger-like eyes. Immediately, Gabriella's heart leaped out of her chest as Primo's lips twisted.

"Did you like everything you see?" Primo said and Gabriella just wanted to die right away at his words.
