Claimed By The Ruthless Mafia

Chapter 17.His Proposal



*Bella*

As Ryder’s heartfelt confession hung in the air, my eyes widened, absorbing the weight of his words. My mind became a whirlwind of emotions, trying to decipher the true depth of his intentions. Did he view me as just a friend, or was there something more blossoming between us?

“I feel a difference when we’re together, and I believe you feel it too,” Ryder asserted, leaving a pause in his speech, eagerly awaiting my response. My heart raced, and I found myself at a loss for words, the intensity of the moment rendering me speechless.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

As he continued, his voice softened, laced with sincerity, “Bella, we have undeniable chemistry… and it’s led me to a point where I never thought I’d ask you to move in with me.”

I gasped, my heart skipping a beat, trying to swallow the lump that had formed in my throat. The gravity of his proposition sank in, and I struggled to process the depth of his feelings for me. “What are you saying, Ryder?” I managed to stammer, my voice betraying both surprise and apprehension.

“Bella, look,” he began, locking his gaze with mine, “we are incredibly compatible.” His touch was tender as he gently trailed a finger along my cheek, sending electric shivers down my spine. “We understand each other on a level that few people do. We never judge one another. Why don’t we give ourselves a chance?”

A swirl of conflicting emotions washed over me. I wanted to believe him, to believe in the connection we shared, but doubt lingered in my mind. “But Ryder,” I hesitated, shaking my head in disbelief, “you’ve never believed in relationships, and I’ve always dreamed of finding a happily ever after. How can we truly be compatible?”

Ryder’s expression softened, recognizing the validity of my concerns. “I know, sweetheart,” he acknowledged, his voice carrying a mix of understanding and determination. “But we can find a way to make it work. That’s why I’m suggesting you move in with me. Let’s see where this could lead us,” he urged, his words filled with hope and sincerity.

My heart tugged in different directions, torn between the familiar comfort of our friendship and the tantalizing prospect of taking a chance on something more profound. The weight of his words hung heavily in the air, and I knew that whatever decision I made could change the course of our lives forever.

“Ryder, I’m just not sure if it will work out between us,” I confessed, my voice filled with uncertainty. “I value my simple life, and moving in with you would bring a lot of complications. The media constantly follows you, and I don’t want that kind of attention in my life.” The thought of being hounded by the media, like they do with Ryder Knight and his love interests, frightened me.

“I understand, Bella. I promise to protect you from everything. I’ll make sure nobody finds out about us. You can trust me,” Ryder reassured, pulling me closer. His words were comforting, but I couldn’t help but be cautious. “You know, Bella, I’ve never asked any girl to move in with me. You hold a special place in my life.” He wrapped his arms around my waist, drawing me nearer.

My resolutions started to crumble as I found it increasingly difficult to resist this incredibly attractive man. He was using his sweet act of seduction to persuade me. How could I deny him?

“Okay… I’ll move in with you,” I finally surrendered, knowing deep down that he would never intentionally hurt me. Ryder, still holding my waist, lifted me up in the air and twirled around happily.

“Thank you, baby girl,” he beamed, placing me gently back on the ground and planting a tender kiss on my forehead.

I couldn’t help but giggle, his sweetness and genuine excitement warming my heart.

“Ryder… umm… I have to be honest, my parents would never approve of this kind of relationship. They are quite conservative,” I confessed, nervously biting my lower lip. My parents held traditional values when it came to dating and living together. While they had no issue with my friendship with Ryder, they wouldn’t accept us moving in together.

“I promise, baby girl,” Ryder reassured, smiling warmly at me. He gently cupped my face in his hand, his touch sending shivers down my spine. His finger trailed seductively along my lip.

I gasped, feeling my breath quicken. Closing my eyes, I allowed myself to be consumed by the moment as he placed his finger in my mouth. The sensation sent a surge of electricity through my body, igniting a desire that radiated from within. I instinctively sucked on his finger, wanting to taste a bit of him.

His eyes darkened with lust, mirroring the emotions that were swirling within me. Seductively, he licked his lips, intensifying the charged atmosphere between us. Opening my eyes, I could see that he felt the same way I did.

Bending down, Ryder leaned in and kissed me softly. He gently sucked on my lower lip, pulling it between his teeth before releasing it with a soft sound. He kissed me again, his tongue coaxing my lips to part and grant him access to my mouth. When I opened my lips, he swiftly slid his tongue in, engaging in a passionate battle for dominance.

Lost in his seductive embrace, I couldn’t help but moan softly into his mouth. Ryder lifted me effortlessly in his arms, never breaking our kiss, and carried me into the bedroom, placing me gently on the bed.

He guided me to lie down, and as he positioned himself above me, he stared into my eyes, captivating me completely. His gaze was filled with desire, causing my breath to catch in my throat as I yearned for his touch. He smirked, clearly aware of the effect he had on me.

With a gentle pull, he lifted me slightly to unzip my gown, allowing it to slide down my shoulders and gracefully fall to the floor. I lifted my ankle as he skillfully removed the dress, leaving me exposed. Standing up, he discarded his own clothes with lightning speed, before once again hovering over me.

He kissed my lips passionately, moving down to lick and suck the soft skin on my neck. He took his time, nibbling at my sensitive spot. His lips then moved to my breasts, taking one nipple in his mouth and sucking on it. I couldn’t help but beg for more. He assaulted my breast while gently massaging the other one. Pulling away, he looked into my eyes.

I had become a moaning mess, my hands entangled in his hair, pulling and massaging it. With my eyes half open and filled with desire, I moaned his name with my mouth slightly open. He began kissing the area between my breasts, moving downward to suck on my belly button.

His hands caressed my wetness, touching me between my legs. He groaned when he realized I was already wet and ready for him. He slid a finger inside me, pumping gently at first. As I responded, he quickened the pace, thrusting his finger in and out of me. He moaned when I tightened around his finger. I was aroused and pleaded with him to let me climax. He positioned himself between my legs and plunged his steely dick into my throbbing pussy with a hard force. Together, we groaned as he entered my tight hole, fitting perfectly.

He started moving, bringing me immense pleasure. He thrusted hard and fast, groaning as we both couldn’t get enough of each other. He slid a hand between us, rubbing my clitoris and again I was about to explode but this time on his dick. Soon, we were completely intertwined, giving and receiving pleasure from each other, reached the climax. He spilled his seeds inside me. Moans and groans filled the room, creating an echoing symphony of our desire.
