Vivian POVThe second he promised me my emotions flooded out of my heart. I didn't think it would be possible to fall for this brute of a man. He was arrogant, rude, and had no clue about women. In bed though, he knew everything I needed, and when we were alone, he always said the right thing. Definitely in a way that was crude or unexpected, but that only made me wetter for him. I was his dirty little kitten and I loved it.His lips crashed on mine, taking possession of my mouth instantly. His tongue entered with force, roughly caressing mine as he grunted in need. His hands unsnapped my bra and I let it fall to the ground. The second his hands cupped my breast I moaned sensually. His large hands squeezing my heavy mounds and his fingers pinching my nipples felt so fucking good. My whole body was sensitive to his touch and his touch was hard and brutal, overstimulating me in a way I never knew I desired. "Niko, god, I want you." I spoke between kisses. My hands pulled at his shirt a
Niko POVI laid awake for a while, lightly caressing my fingertips over this woman's back. Her body was sprawled out on mine and she slept like a rock. After I fucked her hard, I flipped her over and couldn't peel my eyes off her body. She was fucking perfect. Those long black eyelashes fluttered closed then popped open, showing me those hazel eyes with a slow burning fire in them. She was desperately trying to stay awake just to watch me watch her. Her pussy was so fucking swollen, coated in her juices and my cum, making me moan in satisfaction. I loved taking every piece of her then leaving her destroyed under my arms. She was mine. I cleaned her some then slowly pushed into her. Her eyes were closed, but her lips let out little whimpers. I was overwhelmed with this feeling of content and happiness that I needed to have her one more time before I found my sleep. I moved slowly inside her, hissing in ecstasy. Fuck, I was making love to this woman and loving every fucking second I
Vivian POVMy head was spinning all morning in everything Niko. I felt safe in his arms and burst in pure pleasure under his command in bed. I tried focusing on the gardens or kids, but I was in a haze.Surprisingly, Vanessa found us to offer a tour. She heard I like gardening and some women even mentioned how magical mine was at Niko's house. We spoke for a while and I knew she was only fishing for information about my beast. I didn't let jealousy overcome me though. I answered her questions and led her on to believe she had a chance. Besides, if she threw herself at Niko, it was his choice if he accepted it. We weren't a couple so I held no claim over him. If he wanted me at his every whim then he needed to be only mine. At lunch Vanessa spoke with the kids about school until Niko walked in. He was his same bruting self but there was less tension in his body. Then he smirked at me and butterflies erupted in my stomach. I wanted to push it away but I couldn't. He consumed my body an
Niko POVGod that temptress was going to be my end. I lost a big deal with one of my clients and I still had no lead in Grasso. My anger was through the roof and I needed her body. The second she arrived at my office all I wanted to do was punish her. She didn't do anything wrong but I needed to let my dick relieve this tension in me. I was floored when she kneeled between my legs without me even telling her to. She knew I needed her and she wanted to please me. I fucked her mouth rougher than anyone I ever had before. I didn't want to hurt her but I had this burning itch to see how far she would let me run my desires through her. She did so fucking good I don't think I would enjoy any other woman sucking my dick again.Then as we were calming down, she sank her wet pussy down on my dick. I wanted to throw her on the floor and pound hard into her. Her face was laced with pain though and I knew she needed to take this slow. I promised to fill her tonight and she just sucked my dick dr
Vivian POVWhen I woke in the morning I stretched looking for my beast but he was gone. I smiled like a child, feeling the delicious soreness between my legs. I seemed to have a fetish about getting fucked in my sleep because last night was so erotic and perfect. Niko seemed to enjoy waking me with his mouth or dick so I guess it worked out for us.I giggled a little thinking how he was with me, the words he said, the way his body needed mine. I finally got up and showered. I went happily to the kid's room waking them and headed to breakfast. We were getting used to this house but I wanted to leave. There were too many secret meetings and whispers around the corner. I knew they were into some bad shit but they say ignorance is bliss, and I planned to remain as ignorant as possible when it came to the fucking mafia.I didn't choose this life but there was no escape for me now. Plus, I wasn't sure if I wanted to leave. I can't just fuck Niko the rest of my life, but for now, I was enjoy
Niko POVIt was strange watching a movie with a woman cuddle next to me, but it was also a nice feeling. In a few hours Viv was going to lose her shit and I was enjoying her body every second until then.The second we walked into the kitchen I stoned my face and removed my emotions. She needed to understand I was taking the boy. Never did I think she would threaten me or disrespect me as she did and all in front of my men. I couldn't let this go now. She twisted my hands and she could fucking figure this shit out on her own. I had enough stress on my plate then to have to deal with this woman lashing out.Micheal was sure to give her a tight hug and threw some comments about how I had no control over my house. He even threw it in my face how Vivian hated me. Little did he know she always fucking hates me. We fight, then we fuck. At least this time I was expecting the fight. When I got home tonight, she was going to know how fucking sore I can make that ass. I don't mean with my hands
Niko POVThe second we walked into Roberto's house my stomach dropped. I pushed the thoughts of her rage out from my mind, but I knew it was time to deal with it. I was fucking exhausted though. The stress of this fight between us, that hasn't even happened yet, was warring on me more than anything ever has before.I could fuck that woman day and night and keep going, but one fight and I'm ready to throw my arms in the air and just pass out. Paul approached me as I looked up the stairs. "Boss, V was requesting to be with the child. She is asleep now but caused quite a scene while we were away. Vanessa even has a few scratches that Roberto isn't happy with."My eyebrows perked up. "Scratches?" My little temptress went wild on my family now too. The people I'm supposed to protect and she goes after them."Yes, that's not all." He took a hard gulp. He didn't want to deliver this news because it meant Viv would be punished harshly."She slapped Vanessa, threw a blow dryer at a guard, thre
Vivian POVI couldn't believe how quickly the blinders were pulled from my eyes. Niko took my body for his pleasure, lied to my face to get me to submit to him, then fucking tore my heart out. The pain inside my chest was unbearable. I wanted Michael safe and missed him already. I prayed and threaten God countless times to watch over that boy. I hated Niko more than I thought possible, yet my body missed his. I wanted to be at his mercy but I also needed him at mine. The way he dismissed me was like a knife cutting me open. How he threatened to harm me tore at my heart. Then how he demanded my body the next morning, not caring one bit about the pain I was in, destroyed everything inside me. He didn't care about me.I tried biting my tongue. I knew lashing out on him would only make my life harder. The rage and hurt he caused me was too much to just push down though. Once I finally got to Amy's room, I ran to her and held her for hours. We both cried for Michael and in fear for what t
Amy POV"Maybe we need to collide more often." I smiled seductively, images of him backing me into the bathroom playing in my head. A little pleasure would be a nice adventure to get the tiredness to rest for a bit. Sex always had a way of easing all my discomforts. "I would like that." His fingers brushed my face, green eyes locking onto mine, like I was something he needed to own for a few hours. God, I wanted to kiss him, just get lost in his large hands and tall body. But this was wrong. I can't do that now, here at my little cousin's birthday. "I should get back. We're about to do the cake. But maybe..." I gestured vaguely toward the party."Or," he leaned in slightly as he held up a tray of champagne flutes, "we could sneak off and have our own dessert."His teasing tone wrapped around me like silk, smooth but edged with command.I should say no. Something about this moment felt off. But the thrill of it was intoxicating.I bit the side of my lip. "Maybe just one drink," I mur
Amy POVI wasn't paying attention when I walked straight into someone, my shoulder bumping into a tray of drinks. The glasses wobbled, but the waiter caught them effortlessly. He steadied me with a light touch on my arm, and I felt the heat of his skin even through the fabric of my dress."Sorry, Miss." His voice was smooth, low, with a slight accent I couldn't quite place.I glanced up, my gaze locking onto his striking green eyes. For a second, my breath caught. He was tall, lean but strong, with dark brown hair that framed his sharp features. Something about him felt familiar, but I couldn't place why at first, then I remembered."Kyle?" My eyes widened in surprise. We'd met before, a handful of times. At a club. A café. Just brief, passing encounters. He wasn't someone I really knew, just a face I recognized, a good-looking one at that.He looked so clean cut in his waiter's outfit. Tattoos hidden, and those toned muscles covered. His hair was dyed darker than I remembered, and it
Lucy POV"I can't believe he stole my car!" I paced, heels clicking against the hardwood. My hands clenched into fists at my sides, heat rising to my face.Amy, sitting on the bed, calmly buckled her heels. "If he wrecks it, I'll ask Uncle Niko to buy you the newest model." I shot her a glare. "That's not the point, Amy!"Michael always did whatever he wanted. No consequences. No regard for anyone else. And what made it worse? I couldn't stop thinking about him.I caught my reflection in the mirror as I pinned one side of my hair back, the long, golden curls cascading over my bare back. I looked stunning, sure, but I was too furious to even appreciate the effort I'd put in tonight.Amy sighed softly and stood up, coming over to me. "I know. I'm sorry." She reached for my hand, and I reluctantly let her take it. She had styled her hair the same as mine, her dark curls pinned back with a matching flower clip, and in any other moment, I would have smiled at how perfectly we matched."I'
Amy POV"You ready for tonight?" I grabbed Lucy's hands and twirled myself in her arms as we walked out of school. Not even two weeks left and we graduate. We had prom, senior class trip, awards ceremony, and then graduation prep."Why are you so happy?" Lucy giggled at me dancing down the sidewalk to her car. She had seemed off all day. I felt bad that we stayed up so late drinking. "I only have two exams left and then everything else is just parties! And tonight," I moved closer to whisper to her. "I invited James as my date and he said yes!" I was so excited I could burst. The hot boy from Chemistry class actually said yes!"What about Michael?" She immediately panicked. What the hell did he have to do with anything?"You mean Zander? Why would my brother care... oh, right. I'll have a talk with him." I cursed to myself. My brother was an overbearing, overprotective prick. I really didn't want James to get his face smashed in like Jared did. "Well, good luck with that." Lucy saw
Lucy POVI stared at the kitchen door for at least twenty minutes before I finally picked my jaw up from the floor.I didn't just kiss him.It wasn't just any kiss either. It was an earth-shattering, mind-blowing kind of kiss. The kind you lose yourself in. The kind that makes your stomach twist and your knees weak.I never felt that before. Not with anyone.Maybe I should drink more often.I stabbed my fork into the cake, taking another too-large of a bite before shoving it back into the fridge. I needed to sleep. I kissed Michael. Amy's brother. A man who probably kills people for a hobby.And I liked it.Scratch that, I'm never drinking again."You okay?" Amy asked as I crawled under the covers."Yeah, just too much alcohol and sugar," I mumbled, hugging my pillow tighter.Amy let out a knowing sigh. "Did you eat cake, Lucy?"I groaned. "Just one."She playfully scolded me, but I barely heard her as she curled up beside me. For years, I practically lived here, always sharing a bed
Michael POV "Your sister is a bit of a prude." Ariel's fingers skimmed down my chest, her voice a lazy purr. "I think I'd prefer it that way," I said, brushing her off as I stepped away. "Now get to work." I wasn't in the mood for distractions. Ignoring Ariel's pout and Siobhan's sharp gaze, I pressed my thumb to the side panel, shifting the painting to reveal a bank of live security monitors. Siobhan let out a low whistle. "That's a hell of a setup." I barely glanced at her. "Watch the feeds. If you see anything, I want to know immediately." My eyes flicked to the monitor showing Amy's bedroom door. "Are you spying on your sister?" Ariel wrinkled her nose, voice curling in mock disgust. "That's a little..." I shot her a cold look. "She is my sister. No one touches her." She held up her hands. "Jeez. Got it." "Good. Now show me what you found before I decide you're wasting my time." I pointed to my desk where the laptops were set up. Ariel sighed dramatically but d
Amy POV "I'm sorry my brother is such a creep. God! I don't even know why he is still here." I slammed my bedroom door shut, wanting to rip it right off the hinges. All Michael did was torment my friends. He was trying to scare them off, but it wasn't going to work. Lucy sat on my bed, hugging a pillow. "He won't leave without you, Amy." Her voice was quiet, but certain. "He's a total psycho, but... he'll do anything to protect you." I turned on her. "Are you actually defending him?" "No!" She shook her head quickly. "He's horrible, and I hate that you have to deal with him. It's just..." She hesitated, biting her lip. "I don't know. It could be worse." "How do I get him off my radar?" she groaned. "He seems determined to torture me." I sat beside her, letting out a dry laugh. "Michael's just jealous." Lucy raised an eyebrow, as if it wasn't totally obvious. My brother hated anyone I was friends with, especially Lucy. "He knows you're part of the reason I won't leave.
Micheal POV "Where's the informant?" My voice cut through the stale air as my Uncle walked into the run-down repair shop empty-handed. "He went underground before we could grab him. Someone tipped him off." Vito sighed like I was an impatient kid throwing a tantrum. "Someone?" I sneered. Traitors were everywhere, circling like vultures.Vito raised his hands, already cautious. He knew that look in my eyes, the one that meant death.I moved before he could speak, slamming him against the wall. "You failed." My voice dropped, quiet, lethal. "And now you're standing here wasting my time."My fingers twitched, aching to wrap around his throat, but my anger wasn't for him. It was for Niko.I was stuck in that bastard's house, forced to watch him play family with my sister while I stood by like some leashed dog.For years, I believed Amy was dead. I'd seen the evidence, her body parts mailed to me, the taunting messages that ate me alive. I had nothing left but hate. By sixteen, I'd gra
Michael POV "Are you going to speak, or just stand there like an idiot?" I leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, staring down at the girl in front of me. She had that same frozen, wide-eyed look she always did around me, her knuckles white from gripping the strap of her bag. Weak. Useless. I had no idea how the hell she was Amy's best friend. My sister had grown too comfortable here if these were the kind of people she surrounded herself with. "I... Uh... I..." Lucy stammered, her voice barely above a whisper. I sighed, already annoyed. "Spit it out, rat face." Lucy's lips parted, but instead of speaking, she scowled. For a second, she looked like she might tell me to go fuck myself. But then she hesitated, like she always did. I could almost hear her thoughts scrambling and panic settling in. It was pathetic how easy it was to break her down, how she just stood there, shrinking under my stare like some helpless little mouse. It reminded me of the first night I met
