Two hours later, I found Kiara at the piano, her eyes closed, head tilted to the side as she played a melody she had been working on since she moved here. She never talked about her music, but I had a good ear. âI made time for gun training today,â I said.
She jerked upright, her dazed eyes zeroing in on me. Slowly, she stood. She wore one of her modest dresses that reached her knees, but even those clothes did nothing to hide the enticing swell of her breasts, her narrow waist, or soft curve of her hips.
âWhere?â she asked curiously as she padded toward me on bare feet. To my surprise, her toes were painted red. It was a color Iâd favor in her clothes as well.
âI set up a target in the garden.â I gestured at my gun holster. âAnd you have a selection of these guns or we could go down into the basement to our weapon room.â
She laughed then bit her lip. âI think one of your guns will do.â
I led her outside to the west side of the gardens, and we stopped close to the target. âHave you ever held a gun?â
âNo,â she admitted.
I shook my head. Growing up in the mafia, girls should learn how to handle guns from a young age. They were smaller and less muscular than men. Why add the disadvantage of being inept at using a gun? I handed Kiara my semi-automatic. It was easy to handle. She took it carefully, but her grip was all wrong. I moved around her and positioned myself behind her back. Her sweet perfume wafted into my nose. Iâd never thought Iâd like it, but Kiara obviously used a brand my senses favored. She glanced over her shoulder with a hint of shyness. I was glad that her facial expressions were slowly becoming less of a mystery to me. It made my life and her life indefinitely easier.
âLift your arms and aim at the target.â
She did, but we had work to do. âI will adjust your hold and stance,â I explained. I touched her hips, and she stiffened, but I angled her the way I wanted her then moved on to her arms and pushed them down a couple of inches. I faced her again and corrected her fingers on the gun. âIâm not sure if itâs a good idea for you to stand in front of the barrel. What if I shoot you by accident?â
âYouâd have to release the safety first. That would give me time to get out of the way.â
She drew her lower lip between her teeth again. It was awfully distracting. âIâm so clueless.â
âThatâs why Iâm here, to teach you all you need to know.â A delicate blush spread on her cheeks, but I couldnât link an emotion to it.
I guided her hand for her first few shots to let her get accustomed to the recoil. She jumped every time the shot sounded, but eventually she seemed to enjoy herself and even laughed when she managed to hit the target without my help.
