Taken By The Mafia Lord

177 Entangled With Temptation

“So much for keeping me company,” Victor muttered over Mimi’s inability to keep watch over him. On the bright side, he didn’t feel lonely anymore – her presence was comforting enough.

Standing up, Victor went over to her and then placing an arm beneath her legs and the other around her shoulder, he carried her off the couch.

He could settle her in one of the guest rooms but Victor wanted her where his eyes would find her. Nor could he trust those horny lackeys around her – the ratio of men to women here was 10:1. He would protect her as her bestie!

Getting to his room, Victor settled Mimi on the bed and made sure she laid down properly with no discomfort. He stood over her for a while, contemplating what to do now she’s asleep and he’s without company. In the end, he climbed onto the bed and lay beside her.

Victor propped his head up with his arms on the pillow and watched over Mimi. Why was he interested in her? Simple as short, he was bored and she was fun to be with.

There were two categories of people for Victor – people he fucked and people he liked. All of the girls he dated were in that category while the latter category was his loved ones. As for Mimi? She didn’t belong to either.

He hadn’t fucked her – yet – and was still interested in fucking her, but Mimi’s case was a teeny bit complicated. Victor hated workplace relationships because look how well it worked out between him and Macy, yeah! – note the sarcasm.

And as much as he wanted Macy out of his sight, she was an important asset to Marcel – nor did he have the heart to cost her her job just because he had a petty grudge against her. So yeah, he didn’t want a repeat of that with Mimi.

Mimi was not an important asset to Marcel – she was just a means to keep Arianna in line if the need come up- she was important to Victor!

.....

His food source! He couldn’t lose his delicious meals, so his little brother might as well go on a little break.

Moreover, something was refreshing about this relationship. He could tease and have fun with her all he wanted. Mimi was a cool person to be with, he didn’t want to ruin that charm by sleeping with her.

Victor had this belief Mimi’s appeal would vanish the moment they had sex – their current dynamic would change. He would categorize her as the same as the other women he has been with. So yeah, he would thrive on this innocent relationship as long as it lasts and in the end, do the deal. There was no woman on earth he can’t win over!

He watched her silently and noticed with glee that she wasn’t prettier than him. He wasn’t even a fun of blonde – no prejudice there – but he preferred wavy brunettes, his ideal woman.

But, Ooh! Her hair was quite soft, Victor realized when he pushed some strands out of her face. And what shampoo does she use? He leaned down to sniff her hair only for the subtle scent of jasmine, bergamot, and sandalwood to fill his nose. Well, that was nice?

It was while Victor was taking in the scent of her hair that his gaze moved to her slender neck and he gulped. He could already imagine the number of things he could do to that attractive neck like kissing his way from her chin in a lazy trail as she arches her back.

Even as Victor imagined that scene, his hand unconsciously trailed down to her throat, tracing the dip in her neck and relishing how soft her skin was. It wasn’t until Mimi made a long, low sound in her throat that he caught himself and withdraw his hands immediately.

What the fuck was that? What the hell was he doing? Victor was flabbergasted and red in the face. It was almost as if he had been under a spell and he didn’t know what he was doing, lost in his thought, but he sure as hell loved the feeling. Her skin was so smooth and soft – he was tempted to have another touch.

The moment Mimi stirred, Victor’s heart jumped in his throat thinking she was awake and knew what to do. Damn it, he was in deep shit.

“It was merely a touch,” He was determined to defend himself when instead, Mimi’s hand landed on his chest.

“Ouch!” He exclaimed in pain, that seriously hurt. Victor was ready to give her a piece of his mind only to realize she was still asleep. Thinking it was merely a mistake, Victor forgave her and carefully returned her hand to her side. And maybe he did deserve that.

However, not less than a minute after he “returned” her hand, Mimi placed her leg on him this time and Victor looked down at it with his brows raised.

With the fear of God in him, he gently returned her leg to its rightful position with a sigh. Seems someone was having too much activity in her sleep.

It seemed like she stopped moving or so Victor thought because a minute later, Mimi turned and this time, she placed her hand and legs on him and was practically lying on him because she hooked Victor in such a way he couldn’t free himself from her web. She was the worst sleeper he has ever seen!

Victor tried to free himself but each time he attempted that, she would only tighten her grip around him and sleepily mumble nonsense he had no clue what it was all about.

Victor was not really against her using him as a human bolster but this was a really precarious position. With every little move Mimi made, she was literally grounding against his little brother that had sprung to life. Not to mention her breath hit him directly on his neck further arousing him.

He had never felt tempted until today!

Sadly, he can’t do shit to a sleeping woman, especially not to Mimi. Victor suddenly remembered that verse of the Bible that said, “Flee from temptation,”.

Unfortunately, temptation was entangled with him.
