Amatucci Family Chapter 228 - Arkady
I stood watch at the monitors in my old room. Something was bothering me. Nik still hadn't been able to find some of the files that should have been on the system. I had no idea what files in particular she was looking for, but I was more than willing to help find them. "I'm at my terminal, Nik," I said over the phone. "Good. Now, open up a window and type this." She gave me an executable command. As soon as I hit enter, I watched the screens flicker and shake. Then they went to some kind of gray screen. I told her what had happened. "Yes! Okay, pull up a new window."Following her directions, I watched as the screens all came back up. But something was different. "Do you see it?" she asked. I nodded. "Out loud, Weber, I can't see you."I snorted. "Yes, Nikanya." I picked up the phone. "Let me route you in. You can guide me through."She sent me the next line of code so she could hook into the security system feeds in the estate. "You're golden.""I'm leaving
Amatucci Family Chapter 229 - Talia
I sat on the hospital bed. Mentally whining at the knowledge that I'd given up a premium king size bed for a lumpy twin size. What the hell had I been thinking? Kill Barrikad. That's what I'd been thinking. That man was going to die by my hand. We just had to wait for him to show up. That fucker better show up. "Lay down, T. I need to get some blood from you, and you're practically vibrating," Jessa said again as she brought in the tray for the specimen collection. "How did you get privileges here?" I asked as I pulled my feet up and stretched out on the bed. She laughed. "Are you kidding me? This is an overworked urban hospital. They practically shoved me into a room for you. You came into a hospital with your own doctor. Why wouldn't they say yes?""Um, because laws and stuff." I pressed the button to bring the head of the bed up just a little. I hated lying flat when I was awake. Unless I was getting my world rocked. That was the single exception that I could think
Amatucci Family Chapter 230 - Foster
I paced the small room again. The sun had set hours ago. This section of the hospital was quiet except for the soft bustling of the night shift nurses. The feeling in my belly told me we were about to meet face first with some danger. "Stop thinking so loud," Talia complained from her bed. "You're giving me a headache."I walked over to her side. Brushed my hands down her face. "I can give you some more meds. Jessa said the thallium treatment can make you nauseous."She shook her head. "I don't want anything else inside me that the goddess didn't put there."I snorted softly. She smiled, peeked up at me through her lashes. "Except you. I think she meant for you to be there.""Damn right she did, Hellcat." I leaned down, kissed her cheekbone. Even though her lips were still healing, the bruises fading from her face, her skin was so fucking soft. I felt like an addict. Like I had this need inside me to have as much of her against as much of me as possible at all times durin
Amatucci Family Chapter 231 - Talia
I walked into the safe house under my own steam. It took about a week, but I was finally free of all restrictions except lifting. I had to wait for my abdominal wound to completely heal for that to be lifted. "Honeybunses, I'm home!" I crowed into the empty foyer of the house. The thunder of stampeding feet rushed towards me. Jessa got to me first. "What the hell, babe? We were supposed to come get you." She pulled me into her arms, looked me over with her medically trained eye. She smiled when she finished, looked me in the eye. "You're feeling much better."I nodded, pulled her in for a hug. "In large part thanks to you."She poo-pooed my words. "Queen, you've been kicking ass this whole time. I think Fate is scared of you right now."Foster pulled me from her arms and caught me up in his.I grabbed his head, smacked my healed lips to his. He made a sound low in his throat as he changed the angle. I wrapped my legs around his waist, met him thrust for thrust. "Ahe
Amatucci Family Chapter 232 - Epilogue I - Jessa
I covered my mouth with my hand. I was both horrified and astounded at the bravery and moxie of Tali. That woman was my adulting goal, and I was pretty sure I was older than her. Nico pulled me into his side, pressed a kiss to my hair. "He'll never hurt anyone again."I nodded. "Your sister saw to that."Nico chuckled. "Yeah, she did. She might be annoying, but damn has she got some balls."A giggle escaped as my phone rang. Nik's name scrolled across the screen. "Hey, queen. How's it?" I asked. "Jessa." Nik's voice was solemn. "I need you to get everyone on your end of things to get on this call. Now."I told Nico. He ran to get Talia and Arkady. I put the phone on speaker while the rest of us waited. "Nico's gone to get them. What's wrong, Nik?" I've never heard her voice like this. Not in all my years of knowing her. "I only want to say this once."As if he heard my praying, Nico came rushing back in. His sister and Arkady hot on his heels. "We're all here, Nik
Amatucci Family Chapter 233 - Epilogue II - Domenico
I caught Jessa as she passed out. "Someone get the phone."Smoke, Maggie Rollins, picked it up. "We're still here, Grasshopper. Go ahead.""Is Jessa okay?""Tell us what's going on, Nik. Please." I carried Jessa to the couch. Laid her flat. Talia ran from the room. She was back in moments with a bottle of water. I smiled at her in thanks. Breaking the seal, I poured some into my palm. Splashed it on Jessa's face. I knew she'd want to hear anything about her missing sister. She came awake with a start. "Jaz!""We know where she is, Jessa. We need to go get her," Nik said. "If the intel is reliable, and from everything we can tell, it is, then Jasmine is being held in some kind of facility in Croatia. Under..." Nik's voice trailed off. "Some woman named Marika.""Karine said someone would kill Marika if we showed up," Foster said. We all looked at him. "Roger, Striker, Mas, and I were there." He looked at the other men. They all nodded. "Croatia. Where in Croatia

We stood on the tarmac. I watched the woman I love, the woman I've been trying to save for the last three weeks just get on a plane without me. What kind of horrible thing had I done in a past life to earn this kind of karma? A million possibilities rushed through my head. Fine. But it still sucked ass. And not in good ways. Talia stopped at the top of the stairs and turned back. I love you, she mouthed. I love you, too, I said back. She lifted a hand to her head, her thumb and pinky spread wide. She wiggled it near her head. Call me. She winked, ducked under the bulkhead and walked onto the plane. She better get ready for some stellar phone sex. I was already aching for her. Nico clapped me on the shoulder. "Let's go save some people."I nodded. Damn my luck for getting into such a great family.
Amatucci Family Chapter 235 - Nico
I slammed my fist down on the small table, glared at the man across from me. "No! I refuse to allow that to happen."The man smiled. I felt my balls curl up inside my body and start to shrivel. Thank the goddess I'd already gotten Jessa pregnant."It doesn't matter if you allow it. It will happen," he said, his voice a low, broken whisper. "You can fight me, but you will lose."Narrowing my eyes at him, I studied his posture. Relaxed, confident, in control. No emotional leakage whatsoever. The man was a bloody statute sunning himself on a summer day with a cool breeze to settle the heat. I sat back. Jessa was going to fucking kill me. Hell, I'd hold still to let her do it. But there was no way around this guy. I should know. He was my little brother. I nodded. "Fine, but you get to tell Jessa." His dark bronze skin washed pale as he swallowed. He gave a short dip of his chin. "Fine." He picked up his phone, punched in the numbers. Massimo's face pinched as he he

I crept along the rooftop. The target was staying in the long term suites across the road. It was our first night, and it felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders the farther we got from New Trenadie. The next moment, I crashed to the roof's floor. "Damn it." She snickered. "Still a sucky spy, Raphael." She slid her body over mine.I sucked in a breath. Nodded. Hell, I practically begged her for it. But without words. When she got that tone, my words were not necessary. She smiled. "I'm not going to beat you to death. Nor am I going to stuff you into a padded room." She bent down, flicked her tongue over my lips. "But I will tie you up, spank you, flog you, fuck you, and then make you do it all over again. My dick went to iron between her legs. Her laugh was husky. "I'm keeping you, Raphael. Do you understand me?"My heart settled. Skipped a beat. "Yes, Mistress."The end.
Amatucci Family Chapter 340 - Epilogue III - Momma
My phone dinged with a new incoming text message. Considering my phone had been going off since the wee hours of the morning with Willow and Ryker announcing the baby was finally coming, I was tempted to just shut it off. But it could be something important. And since Angelo and I were at home with the other babies, it fell to us to make sure we kept everything running as it should. I grabbed the phone. Unlocked the screen. A video message popped up. Raphael and his girl, Nia. Their heads mushed together to get into frame. "Momma, I have to leave. But I wanted to tell you I love you. And thank you for everything. I will let you know when I get back." Nia smiled. "I'll keep him safe, Momma. I swear it.""Bye, Momma," they said together before they ended the call.I smiled even as tears filled my eyes. Angelo looked up at me from his spot on the bed. He was restrained, a ball gag in his mouth. I held the crop up high. "Our last baby is finally happy, Angelo." I s
Amatucci Family Chapter 339 - Epilogue II - Nia
Two weeks later I glared at the woman on the table. "I still don't know why I have to be here. I barely know you."Willow snorted. "Because you're scarier than anyone else in my family. And I don't want those doctors trying to get all bitchyyyyyyyy." Another contraction hit her. She clamped down on my hand hard enough that I thought I was going to need surgery to remove the bones from each other. And this little firecracker had more strength inside her than her grip would show. Raphael had told me some of her story. She'd told me the rest of it. A ritual the Amatucci women apparently indulged in was something called Girls' Night. Really it was a bunch of drinking, talking about sex, and watching movies while we ate enough of Willow's confectionaries to give ourselves diabetes. Willow blew out a breath. "Ryker can't handle seeing me in this kind of pain, so he has to stay out in the lobby with the rest of them. You're second chair." She panted. Demanded some ice chips.
Amatucci Family Chapter 338 - Epilogue I - Raphael
Three days laterWalking into my parents house when they didn't know I was alive was a risky thing. A multitude of crappy things could happen. Not the least of which was Momma killing me for real this time. Or Papa crying. Or either of them fainting."Go on," Nia said as she shoved me forward gently. "You're already here. Just go into the kitchen. Nik said she told them to wait for her in the kitchen."I nodded, felt my palms go clammy as my breath backed up in my lungs. This could go terribly wrong. So fucking horribly wrong. Man up, Si, that no longer too small voice said inside me. Since I'd been actively listening to it more, he wasn't so easy to shut up. Even when I wanted to. Thankfully, the nasty bitch who lived inside me was getting fainter. Although he could still throw a temper tantrum to beat a two year old. "I'm right here. And I'll be right here the whole time. They've waited long enough, Raphael." She nudged me again. Even as bile rushed up the back o
Amatucci Family Chapter 337 - Petunia
We all stood in the kitchen, guzzling water by the gallon. I hadn't been this dehydrated since the last time I got in trouble at Petter Manor. But at least this time it was due to happy tears and reunification. Raphael sat and watched it all. Just absorbed it. But he never got so far away I couldn't touch him. That I even needed to touch him still blew my mind. But I wasn't going to question it. He helped steady me when it felt like everything inside me and around me was bending and flexing too fast for me to catch up. "What are your plans for tomorrow?" Liam asked as he finished his third glass of water. "Tomorrow is the gala. I'm going to string Anders up-the guy who had you kidnapped again. I'm going to tell everyone the Petters have been blackmailing and abusing and paying off that the Petters are dead and gone. That they're all on watch." I studied Liam and Lilly. It blew my mind that they had gone into the government side of this dirty world. That they willingly put t

Nia came over to me while I was helping drag some bodies away. "Hey Raphael, can you come with me, please?"Foster grunted at me as we got the body up on the catering cart. "Go. I've got this." I nodded, turned back to Nia. "Sure, Nia." She took my hand and we walked from the room. Her hand was trembling in mine. It was only the slightest degree, but it might as well have registered on the seismic scale. "You good?" I asked her softly as we walked down a set of stairs. She said nothing, made no movements except to keep walking. I pulled her to a stop. Made her look at me. "Are you good?" I asked again. Her eyes were wide, as if she were trying to stave off the tears. "Amelie and Anton..." she blew out a breath. "They're t-""The only two people you love in this world." I smiled sadly. "I know, Nia."Her eyelids fluttered shut as a tear escaped down her cheek. Her breath was shaky as she exhaled. "I got them away from here. Put them in with a good woman with a hu

Day before the gala "Charlie team in position," the man's voice came through the little earbud I wore in my right ear. I kept a tight hold on my fear. My relief. My heart. All of the planning, all of the tears, all of the arguments. It all came down to this. "Delta team in position," Raphael said through my ear. "Foxtrot team in position," another voice said. I still wasn't quite sure who was who by their voice, but I'd done an okayish job of remembering names and faces. The fact that I had a team full of women with me made me like the Amatuccis even more. They didn't discriminate. If someone had the skill and the drive to join the security teams, they were given a position. "Estrogen team in position," I said. A series of clicks came through the earbud. I'd made a single joke about Echo team being full of vaginas. They called us the Estro team now. Since we were collectively badass, I didn't really care what they called us as long as it wasn't disrespectful. "A
Amatucci Family Chapter 334 - Raphael
Her babies? She had kids? I shook my head. Knew there had to be a different story, but I needed to get her back with me to learn it. I set her down on the chair. Pushed her head down between her knees. "Breathe, Nia." I made my voice hard. As hard as I dared when all I wanted to do was cuddle her up and carry her away. Nowhere was my fierce and strong Dominant. Right now, she was a broken, hurting woman. I would hold her together until she could find herself again. Ivan came rushing into the room, his gun drawn. He lifted it to the ceiling when he saw what was going on. One of his brows rose in question.I gave him a brief rundown of what I knew. Which was damn little. I shrugged when I was out of information to share. Mas came hopping in behind Ivan. He didn't have a weapon, but he did have concern etched on his face. "Who the hell are you?" a voice said from behind me. I whirled around, putting Nia behind my body as I faced the threat that shouldn't be there. A
Amatucci Family Chapter 333 - Petunia
After rushing through the shower and the delicious meal that Raphael put together for breakfast, I walked into the space Ivan and Klara had set up for me. Everything was as I left it, but that didn't mean a whole lot. Especially in a place I didn't control one hundred percent. Brushing the weird vibe away, I walked to the computer. Booted everything up. Once it was up and running, I went through my process of accessing my cloud accounts. Jasper had set some up for me that weren't the typical commercial kind. Luckily, I'd memorized the process, or I'd be up a creek with zero paddle at the moment. A ReadMe file was highlighted when I got all the way into my account. I right clicked, read through the metadata how Jasper showed me. Recognizing his signature, I opened the file. Ms. Flower~I've attached all of the information I could find re Cucumber Butt and Pretty Mean. You'll find them in the associated files.I snickered at Jasper's sense of humor. That kid was a genius and
