Marc

She was everything he needed in his life. Sexy as hell, stunning and passionate. There was no doubt that she was on edge about where they were headed, but he would be lying if he didn't say he was as well. The slight swing of her hips in her tight pencil skirt almost undid him as they walked to the car. He slipped his hands into his slacks, needing to do something with them before he reached out and took hold of her again.

"What are you thinking for dinner?" He moved to open her door, leaning over a little to get a better view as the top of her silky shirt flared. Her breasts were on view for only a moment. He growled and moved back, shutting the door and readjusting himself as he walked around the back of the car. She was going to kill him. It was plain and simple. How the hell had he kept his hands off of her when he moved them to Maine a few months back?

Kari... His sister had been rather straightforward about the two of them not really getting involved with each other. Someon

    LisaThe deep grunts rolling off of him were so wickedly delicious that she worked him harder, her hand and tongue moving in tandem with his thrusts. He hadn't a drop of modesty as he pressed his hands behind him and lifted up, giving her far more than she could possibly handle. She had gone in strong, wanting to show him what he was up against, but he was big - too big."Fuck Lisa, that's so hot, baby."She glanced up at him as she squeezed his cock tightly at the base, her tongue flicking back and forth on his fat head. She smiled and sank her teeth carefully into him as she scratched at his sack. He growled loudly and looked up toward the ceiling as she started her assault again.He reached down and sunk his hand into her hair, wrapping his fingers around tightly and setting the pace he wanted for their sex.

    LisaThey never got to the pizza and by the sound of her stomach growling loudly the next morning, she realized how badly they should have. Lisa slipped out of Marc's grasp and walked into the small bathroom, needing to take a quick shower and still her racing heart. Everything was so perfect. She was simply waiting for it to crumble in front of her.It would, right?A knock resounded at the door as she slipped under the water. "Come in."Marc walked in, his back to her as he went to the restroom. She adverted her eyes from the thick swell of his ass, knowing that would only make them late on getting back into town. The strong muscles of his back contracted as he stretched and shivered. He turned and smiled.Lisa laughed, enjoying the transparent shower curtain, but not nearly as much as the handsome man on the other side of it seemed to be.Marc moved to the side of the shower, pausing as he glanced at her. She knew he wanted permission, which spoke volumes as to where their relation

    MarcMarc walked into the house, struggling against the weariness that weighed heavy on him. Lisa's bed very much sounded like the place he should spend the rest of the afternoon. He stopped in the kitchen to grab a glass of water, the sound of his sister's voice causing him to jump."Hey. There you are. Where's Lisa?"He looked over his shoulder, smiling as Kari's eyebrow lifted."She went into the office for a little while. I'm going to sleep the rest of the day away in the delicious smell of her bed.""TMI, but thank you." Kari lifted her hand as if trying to stop him, and took a seat at the kitchen table."You asked.""I asked if... never mind.""You asked." He turned and drank the water down in three long gulps, a bit of it dripping onto his chin. He put his cup in the sink and tugged his t-shirt up, wiping at his chin as he turned his focus back on his sister."We're all going to Sicily's this afternoon for an early dinner. You guys need to come with us." Kari tossed a dish towe

    MarcMarc walked into the bakery, the quaint little shop completely put together. It was immaculate, the floors and counters spotless. The place was busy with customers. Kari waved them over as soon as they moved through the people in line at the counter."Where's Lisa?" Marc looked around, worry sprouting in his chest."She's behind at work. She said she would be home late tonight, but for you to wait up if you could.""Of course I can." Marc smiled and took a seat beside his sister. He extended his hand to Sicily and looked around. "You not running the place anymore?""I own it, yeah. I'm the brilliance behind the recipes, but I have several people working for me now." She beamed and he couldn't help but smile back."I'm impressed. We were just painting this place a few months ago." Marc turned and extended his hand to a tanned-skinned dude who walked up and extended his first."I'm Drake. Jake's friend.""Oh yeah. Nice to meet you, man." Marc stood and turned to shake the guy’s han

    LisaLisa stood up from her chair and stretched, the sun long gone behind the earth and yet there was still so much to do. She grumbled about letting Trisha go home, but the older woman was tired and had worked more than a full day.She checked her phone, Kari having sent her a few messages about the fun they were all having at Sicily's bakery. Marc was there with them and honestly, the thought of that alone made Lisa want to drop her responsibilities and go."How are you feeling?"A deep male voice scared her as she jumped, a soft yelp leaving her. Heat flooded her face as she smiled, her hand coming up to rub along the skin above her palpitating heart."I'm good. Damn you scared me. Trisha had a bell on the door earlier this week to save us both from moments like this." She laughed and motioned for the chair in front of her desk. "Take off a load?""Not in the way I'd like to make it happen, but it will suffice for now."She chuckled at his innuendo, his eyes filled with mischief. "

    LisaLisa walked into the small cafe that sat at the edge of the bay, her friends already engrossed in some topic of conversation as she approached. No matter how much concealer she applied that morning before work, the dark circles under her eyes gave away the fact that she hadn't slept at all the night before. Marc hadn't come back home. He was headed back to New York, no doubt. His last words to her were hateful and left her feeling like the whore she had always worked to be.If you love them with your body, you don't have to involve your heart. She swallowed the sadness that rose from the pit of her stomach up her throat again. She had gotten so upset just after midnight that she threw up everything she had eaten earlier that day. Her eyes burned as she pulled off her sunglasses and slid into the booth across from her friends."Let's just get this shit over with." She put her purse down and looked up. She needed to push them past their worry, and move them into a good lunch that

    Lisa"See? I told you Drake liked you. Even Lisa can see it and she's not been around nearly as much as I have lately." Kari turned to Sicily, reaching out and rubbing the other girl's arm."I don't give two shits if Drake likes me. He probably just feels sorry for me or is looking at me like most men look at a home improvement project. I'm a fixer upper." Sicily sniffled, lifting the napkin to her face.They needed to get off the subject. Lisa wasn't about to let her best friend sit across the table and drag herself into a pit of despair over a couple of pounds."Let's join the gym together." Lisa dunked her bread back in the butter. “I need to lose a little bit of weight and I know my heart could be strengthened after the last few days.” She smiled, but no one returned the gesture. The joke apparently wasn't that funny."I'm not joining the gym. Drake will be all up my butt and all over my shiz.""Shiz? How old are you? It's shit." Lisa winked as Sicily smiled."So vulgar!"

    MarcHe hadn't been able to get a flight out until just after lunch on Friday. To say his sister was pissed at him would be a mild understatement. Marc had been sitting at the airport for the better part of eighteen hours by the time he loaded the plane to head home, but misery had been his company. How Lisa could do something so vile to him left him breathless. Love hadn't been a part of his past and he was more than assured it wouldn't belong in his future.Nothing hurt more than the death of his father, but seeing his woman wrapped up in a much better version of him came really fucking close. The man she had in her office was older than her... by quite a bit. He reeked of wealth and the possessive way he held her, followed her, comforted her, gave Marc the impression that they had been together before - many times.He swallowed down his regret and got on the plane, finding his seat and sinking down into it. Slipping his headphones on, Marc cranked up the music, not giving two shits

    DrakeDrake woke up the next morning before Sicily, realizing it was Christmas and he had everything he needed. He rolled onto his side and reached out, brushing his hand down her back as gratefulness washed over him in suffocating waves.D and Michael Carrington had gone to great lengths to help him restart his life. They'd helped fake his death in a warehouse explosion, put on the funeral and D had played the part beautifully through the event. It was horrifying to think he let his brother go through that shit, but D wouldn't have had it any other way.Drake rolled out of bed, his heart aching in his chest. He'd been wrong the night before. He and Sicily couldn't just look away from D and Izzy's bullshit situation. Where he wasn't sure he could get involved in the syndicate again, he could browbeat his brother into being a man and taking Izzy as his woman. There was no other girl for Demetri.After ordering a huge Christmas morning breakfast, Drake wrapped up in an extra blanket, sl

    Sicily"That was fun tonight." Sicily squeezed Drake's hand as they walked toward Kadia in downtown New York. The sign lit up the night, taking attention from anyone who passed by. It was magnificent, the largest club she'd seen."Yeah. I had a good time," he glanced down at her, "and I was serious about what I said. We can go back and join your family after we spend a little bit of time with D and Izzy. I doubt they’re staying long. We just wanted to see each other, and it's safer if we do it in the middle of a large crowd."The line was wrapped around the building, people huddling together and singing Christmas songs with all sorts of odd costumes for the event that night. Sicily smiled and snuggled closer to Drake as they walked to the front of the line."The line is back there, man. Go get in it." A sexy bouncer with a great smile and beautiful aqua-colored eyes barked at them. She let her eyes move down to his name tag, wondering who he was for some reason. Had she seem him befor

The last time I did this for someone, it was at Momma’s funeral." Her hands shook a little. "I did it multiple times that day."He reached up and ran his hands over her hips, enjoying the soft silky black material of her dress. "I'm really good at it. I just wanted you closer."She laughed as a tear ran down her nose. "I'm sorry.""Don't be sorry." He stood and pulled her into a hug, kissing the top of her head as he brushed her hair back. "You can be sensitive over your mom anytime you want, for as long as you want. I'm right here to hold you up."She nodded and pressed her face to his chest. "I just have so many memories of Christmas Eve with her. My chest hurts so bad it feels like acid is ea

He put the last of them in the truck and gave her a look. "What in the world did you get?""Presents for all of our friends and something for you." She shrugged and walked around the truck, getting in on her side.He got in and buckled up as the scent of his cologne filled her nose. She breathed in deeper and let out an appreciative growl.Drake chuckled. "What was that for?""You smell good.""Stop diverting. You shouldn't have gotten all those gifts, baby.""Why not? We didn't fly. We'll just put them all in the back seat when we go back home, right?""It's not about where to put them on the ride home, Sis. It's about you spending your hard-earned money on gifts for us. We don't need anything, at least I don't. I have you, baby. That's more than enough." He pulled out his wallet.

    Sicily"You sure you don't want to come with me?" Sicily forced a pout on her face. She knew without a doubt that Drake would do anything she wanted him to, but shopping was too much. Having some time with her brother and sister for the afternoon would be fun for her, but most likely a drag of sorts. Especially seeing that the brother going was Johnny."I’m sure, beautiful girl." He pulled up to her mother's house. "I'll catch up with you this afternoon.""Will you take me out to see my momma’s grave before we have to get ready for dinner and church?" She leaned over and touched the side of his handsome face. Butterflies danced in her stomach, which seemed silly, but she hoped that he would always have such a strong pull on her."Of course I will." He leaned in and kissed her softly before deepening it a little. She opened herself up, letting him in as he rolled his tongue past her, dominating the kiss in a way that made her blood boil."Behave." She pulled back and smiled."You're th

    DrakeThe night was filled with him and Sicily taking turns to explore each other. By the end of it, he was weak, exhausted and completely infatuated with the beautiful woman tucked against him. Not ever being able to sleep well, he was shocked when he woke the next morning to the smell of bacon and the sound of Sicily talking.He jolted up in the bed, worried that he had missed something. "Baby?""Right here." She opened the various trays sitting on the counter by the TV. "I ordered room service because I didn't want to get dressed yet. Besides, it's snowing like crazy out there."He dropped back down and ran his hand over his chest, watching her as she moved around in a large fluffy white robe. She looked adorable. Sexy."Mine," he grumbled and pulled the covers up. "You know that? You're mine.""I know, you gorilla. You made that more than obvious last night." She nibbled on a piece of bacon and walked over to sit down on the edge of the bed. "You want some?""Of course I do." He r

Sicily sat down, feeling way underdressed for the steakhouse Drake had brought her to. He had on a sports coat over his jeans and white polo, and looked like a million bucks. The best thing in her suitcase was a plain white skirt and a blue sweater with winter boots. She felt cute, but that didn't seem like enough."Evening, folks. Glad to have you in the city and here with us tonight for dinner. May I make some suggestions?" The server wore a white pressed shirt, black slacks and a tux jacket.Sicily sat quietly as Drake encouraged the guy to give his spiel. Once he was done, Drake ordered their drinks and an appetizer. He moved his seat closer to hers and draped his arm over the back of her chair. "You look amazing.""You're just being sweet." She smiled and worked to get her napkin in her lap, not wanting t
