Chapter 19

Giovanni noticed the look in her eye, something was different. When he sat down close to her, she poked him, he let out a little scream and then chuckled. He poked her back, light enough to not hurt her. She laughed and so they started playing around, poking and touching. Ingrid went for his crotch and he went for hers.

They were in sync. She moved forward to sit on him but he moved up and pinned her down on the living room floor. He looked into her eyes, moved in closer and said "I want to make love to you." Those words put butterflies in her stomach. She held him close by his neck and started to kiss him with passion. She made him roll over to get on his laps. He let out a groan that seemed to turn Ingrid on.

The cool air around made them emit steam from their heating bodies as they yearned to be touched intensely by each other. Ingrid's mind was running wild, she was in a state of euphoria and she wasn't willing to let go of it anytime soon. Ingrid began to take off Giovanni's pants. "Wait, I'm not sure if you're in the right state to be...." Giovanni was rendered speechless when Ingrid went down on him, taking him in despite the words he spoke before. His hand moved involuntarily towards the back of Ingrid's head. She felt him press his hand against her head so that she could go deeper.

"Oh..." he said softly as she obeyed the command he gave through his gestures.The sensation was deep and it made him want to be inside her, he couldn't take it anymore; the way she twirled her tongue over his head and moved both her hands up and down simultaneously. He picked her up and bent her over so that she had support on the sofa. He slowly started to finger her, making her release soft moans. This time, Ingrid begged for Giovanni, she told him she was ready. He knelt down behind her and licked her till her juices were dripping down her thigh. "I...I think I'm... so wet," she spoke as she tried to catch her breath from the excessive pleasure. With that signal, Giovanni drove right inside her with his stiff shaft.

She tried to hold back the moans but she failed, for with each deep stroke, she got weaker and weaker. It felt like all this was happening for the first time, but that wasn't the case. She enjoyed hearing him groan every time he moved back and pushed in deep. “I’m about to..." she stuttered, "Yes, my love, cum with me," Giovanni said seductively. Ingrid and Giovanni both reached their climax at the same time. "We are perfect for each other," he kissed her and carried her in his arms and back to the bedroom.

Later that evening, Giovanni, Ingrid, Mrs. Brown and Christopher were having dinner at the table together. Giovanni was talking to Ingrid about how his parents always taught him that the servants were to be treated just like family. Suddenly, the door bell rang. Christopher got up to go and check who it was, "Hello, sir. Please, come in," he said.

"Ah, James, just in time to join us for dinner, have a seat," Giovanni said. Mrs. Brown got up to get an extra plate while Giovanni got up to go and collect the papers that James said he was coming to collect. While they were gone, James looked at Ingrid and said, "you know, I've never seen Giovanni go this crazy over a girl before and soon, you will be starting a family with him." Ingrid looked down and smiled, she was flattered to have heard that from her love's best friend.

Giovanni brought the papers just when Mrs. Brown finished preparing James' dinner. They all made toasts to the good news that had just progressed. All except Ingrid, were about to drink the wine from their cups when they heard a gun shot from outside. Giovanni looked at Christopher who grabbed his glock from the back of his trousers and ran to open the door. Giovanni told Mrs. Brown to take Ingrid to the bedroom while the men went outside. Unfortunately, when they got outside, there was no one there, "Who could that have been?" James asked. "I don't know, but if that was a threat, I can only guess one person."

"You're up early," Giovanni said. Ingrid explained how she hadn't had her proper night's rest in a long time. "So, dinner tonight?" he asked. Ingrid looked at him, shocked, "well, sure, just let me know what you'd like to eat and I'll help Mrs. Brown..." "No, Ingrid...I'm asking you out for dinner, at a restaurant, with me...Tonight," Giovanni said as he smiled at the thought of her being clueless.

She told Giovanni that she didn't have anything to wear, he gave her a hug and told her that she didn't have to worry. "I'll be going for work, I know it's too early for you to be freely moving on your own so Christopher will take you out to the mall and you can pick out whatever outfit you like for tonight," he opened up his wallet, "here, take my card." Ingrid moved back, no one had ever given her the freedom to blow money like that even if it was hers. He walked closer to her and placed it between her cleavage, "Don't worry, I insist," he said.

He kissed her on her forehead and then left the bedroom. Ingrid stared at the card and smiled. She spread the bed and tidied up the room. After that, she picked out an outfit from one of the clothes that Giovanni brought her and then she went off to take her bath.

*Doorbell rings*

"Hello, Ma'am, we are here to talk to Mr. Clover Williams," Carl said when Kate opened the door, "Clover? he just left, he said he was going to the mall," she responded. Carl showed Kate his warranty to search the house in case he was there. He then asked her for his phone number so that they could find him easily. Kate didn't want them to think that she was protecting a criminal so she did as the asked, "Oh, officer, if there is any other way I can help, let me know, I had no idea that Clover was a bad man," she said. Carl looked at her and took off without saying a word.

"So, where is he? James and Carl's partner wanted to know. "According to my tracker, he is heading for the mall, don't know why, but we can take him down from there," Carl responded.

Ingrid was finally ready to go out, she wore a grey off shoulder top and a red high waist jean with some sandals. She said good morning to Mrs. Brown and to Christopher, "I am aware of your movements my lady, I shall be taking on the duty of transporting you there, if we may, please," he said as he directed her to the door. He opened the back door of his car for her and then got in to drive.

When they got to the mall, Ingrid told Christopher to wait for her in the car, "But my lady, you need someone to accompany you judging by the state you're in," he said. Ingrid gave him a warm smile, "if you let me do what I can on my own, that will make me recover quickly. I promise I'll be fine."

Ingrid got into one of the stores that she had once ventured in when she was with Clover. She saw a beautiful black dress that went over the toes. It had a sleeve only on one side and the other was bare; fancy and stunning enough for the night, but not quite. She wanted to look her very best, to show her appreciation for Giovanni's efforts to making her happy. She saw a pink knee levelled flared dress. It was off shouldered and very cute, but a dress like that was going to show the stitches on her knees and she didn't want that.

She walked out of that dress and went to another one, upon entry, a woman followed her, "Hello Miss. How can I help you on this lovely day?" she said. "Hi, I'm going on a dinner date and I'm looking for a dress that brings out my physical characters but still looks elegant." The woman smiled, "I got just the dress, right this way." The woman took her around the store and finally, they got to a dress that was almost isolated from the others; It was velvet red and long to the toes with a slit that didn't show too much. It was bare at the back but had straps that went round the neck, and it had a pattern that complimented the cleavage of any lady who wore it.

Ingrid smiled, "I would love to try it on." She went to the dressing room and saw just how beautiful it looked. The woman brought her some block 6 inch black heels; red bottom heels, to match the dress, "It is perfect for you, Miss." Ingrid thanked her. She went to pay for it and she took out Giovanni's card to make the payment. She bought some mascara and matching lipstick for her outfit, some perfume and some hair clips and then exited the store.

"Shopping for your man?" Ingrid heard a voice behind her, it was Clover, when she looked at him, he moved his jacket a little bit to expose the gun that was tucked at his waist. "You will come with me, right now, and you're not going to die," he said. Ingrid thought about the embryo that was growing inside of her, she had to stay alive, she nodded her head and so Clover put his arm around her.

When they got out of the mall, Ingrid looked into Christopher's direction with a worried face. Christopher noticed and then got out of the car. He started to follow behind Clover silently. Just before he could lay a finger on him, Clover turned around and pointed his gun at Christopher, "Back the fuck up! Or I'll kill her and kill you!" Clover said. Christopher put his hands up. Ingrid was shaking, she wanted to keep it cool but it wasn't working.

Clover held the back of her neck and started to move closer to his car, "I'm going to drive out of this place, you tell your boss that Ginger is coming back with me," Clover said while pointing the gun at Ingrid's head. Before he could open the door, Carl yelled from the back of his vehicle, "Freeze!" Clover looked into Carl's direction as he fired the gun, the bullet went through his arm. It was a tactic good enough to make him move the gun away from Ingrid.

Christopher grabbed Ingrid from his grasp and hid behind a car, Clover gathered the strength to pick up his gun, he almost shot at Ingrid, but Carl and his partner jumped on him, pinning him down to the ground and putting him in handcuffs, "You're under arrest for physical gender abuse and for attempted murder. You have the right to remain silent," Carl said.
