SebastianI loved the feel of her slickened pussy, the heat like a wildfire. I could tell by her ragged breathing that she was close to coming. I pounded into her in an almost perfect rhythm, dazzled by the friction. "Are you going to come for me?""Uh-huh. I..." She laughed softly, her head lolling."Then come for me, baby. Come on my cock." I refused to stop, powering into her until I knew she couldn't hold back any longer.Her pussy tightened then relaxed several times until she issued a high-pitched scream, her entire body shaking. "Oh, God. Oh. Oh. Oh!"Every muscle tense, I brought her into a series of orgasms, the wave washing over her, leaving her body limp in my arms.Her breathing heavy, she only half opened her eyes, blinking several times.I pulled her away from the wall, holding the back of her head. Memories of our very first time together flashed into my mind as my cock continued to throb. I'd never felt this close to a woman and I was floored at the effect she had on m
SebastianI stood in my office, struggling to maintain a level head. The call for a meeting with Santiago had come much sooner than I'd expected. At least John knew that I'd been serious. There were too many hanging pieces to what had turned out to be a very vile game. I was finished with playing, ready to move on and it didn't matter if I had to clean house.The pictures and accompanying news articles my father had given me were fascinating. I'd been able to check the information, finding that there was truth in what had been saved for all these years. I sighed and shoved the envelope into my jacket, only to use the information if necessary.I glanced at the clock and exhaled. Almost three in the morning.The darkness had enveloped the city like a suffocating blanket, even though South Beach never really slept. Tonight, I didn't want to leave the warmth of my bed or the woman I'd invited to share it with me, but there was no other recourse.I heard footsteps and resisted bristling. T
SebastianFamily.I couldn't get the word out of my mind as I drove to the meeting spot of John's choice. A twenty-four-hour diner that would prevent a war from erupting. The instructions had been clear. Bring two men and no more. There would be no guns or other weapons, merely a conversation among enemies.Cordero and Enrique had accompanied me, making a basic sweep of the parking lot before I exited the vehicle. They would remain outside, much like the two soldiers from the Garcia organization."John," I said as I walked in, clearly able to see Santiago in the furthest booth."Hold on. It's not that I don't trust you, Sebastian," John said, stopping me.I held out my arms, allowing him to pat me down. "No problem, John. This is your meeting."He rose to his full height, giving me an odd look that I couldn't read. When he moved to the side, he exhaled.There were two other customers in the diner, along with what appeared to be one waitress and likely a cook in the back. This was an e
SebastianWhile neither man said anything, they were both beginning to sweat.And neither seemed eager to talk.A full minute ticked by.Then two.My patience in the toilet, I pulled out the picture I'd also brought of Rodriguez to gather Santiago's reaction. At first there was none, then he yanked it closer."Where did you get this?" he demanded."You mean one of dozens of photographs of men you murdered?" I asked almost casually.John leaned in, glancing down. "What are you talking about?""I have a friend who supplied an envelope full of bloody pictures; horrific scenes of families that Santiago and his men have taken out. This just happens to be the one man his daughter fell in love with. Now she knows the truth about you, Garcia.""I didn't kill Rodriguez," Santiago said defiantly."Maybe not, but you had one of your minions take care of it," I said quietly, growing weary of the lies.He shook his head several times. "I did not want that man to date my daughter. That is true. He
SebastianWith no traffic on the roads, I'd arrived at the penthouse within ten minutes, finding the door ajar, Sylvie knocked out cold, and no sign of Carmen. While every soldier had been dispatched to start looking for her, I knew in my gut I'd be the only one to find the woman I loved.The asshole responsible wouldn't be easy to find, but I had one idea in mind where the fucker just might go.I'd been such a fool, swallowed up in the concept of turf wars and the destruction of illegal drugs that I'd allowed into my life that I'd forgotten that the majority of true enemies were ones you considered your friend.Or your family.My grip on the steering wheel was tight, my mind reeling. I'd decided to do this one alone. When I drove onto the street, I almost laughed. The once up and coming location had been turned into little more than a ghetto, the small houses no longer cared for. I'd often wondered why he'd kept the place. Now I had my answer.My father always told me that revenge co
SebastianThere was no funeral for my lying sack of shit brother-in-law, although his body was cremated to allow Selena to hold some kind of memory of her father. My niece had been told that he'd been called to God and nothing more.While I'd anticipated anger from Elena, after hearing all that Winston had done, she'd barely even mentioned his name. I couldn't lie that I was glad the asshole was out of her life and I felt absolutely no guilt. I'd also found his buddies who'd pulled the trigger in the parking garage, thanks to Castillo's help. They'd been handled in an entirely different way, establishing life far removed from Miami. They had one chance to keep the fuck away from me.As far as the alliance Santiago and John had mentioned, I'd been called to my parents' house only two hours before they were to leave for the airport. The story should at least be interesting."Come sit by the pool, son. Beautiful day. I took the liberty of making you a drink." My father looked the epitome
CarmenSadness.I'd known such sadness all my life. I'd also known tragedy. To learn about Rodriguez and the fact he'd been using me had taken a piece of my soul. However, I was glad to know the truth. Learning that my father did love me and had tried to protect me had at least given me comfort, even though he was still a brutal monster.Finding love with Sebastian was unexpected and so beautiful, although knowing that both our fathers had decided we should be together years before was unconventional. Maybe they knew we were meant to be together.As we strolled along the beach hand in hand, I knew there was so much on his mind. We'd both been very quiet over the past few days. While he'd said little, I'd learned that Rodriguez was still on the run, but I knew without a shadow of a doubt that he would be found.Bastard.I no longer wanted to look to the past. I was ready to share a future with the man I loved.The roar of the ocean was calm in comparison to the rapid beating of my hear
CarmenFour weeks laterSebastian had packed my things for me already. My cello was the only thing he'd left for me to carry to the car. I stood outside his office door, the sleepless night more difficult than I could imagine, but I'd made the right decision and I knew it.I rapped on the open door before walking in. When Sebastian turned to face me, I could swear the man had been crying."Is it all right if I come in?" I asked quietly."Of course. Are you all ready?""Not exactly.""What is missing?" he asked as he walked toward me.I inched closer, more in control of my emotions and my life than I'd been in years. "I wanted you to know how much I appreciate what you did for me. I don't think I told you that.""It was the right thing to do. You're going to be a star, my beautiful princess."I took his hand into mine, placing it over my heart. "Maybe, but in my way."Sebastian narrowed his eyes. "What does that mean?""It means that I am going to be a soloist for the symphony, but I w
Sasha"You're so disobedient," he breathed as he peppered his hand from one side to the other, the hard slaps pushing me hard against the thick railing.The stinging sensations were intensified from my earlier spanking, the pain rushing down the backs of my legs. I'd accepted my role, my place by his side. He would always be in charge, the head of household, and in truth, the arrangement was perfect.As the spanking continued, my heart racing, I wiggled and moaned, my nipples hardening to the point they ached. I wanted him to twist and pinch, lick and suck."Are you wet for me, my sweet Sasha?""Yes, sir.""I can see how swollen those pretty pink pussy lips are for me."He smacked harder and faster, keeping a perfect rhythm."Yes. Sir." The scent of my cream wafted all around me, my hunger building.A slight chuckle slipped from his lips as his hand came down hard and fast. I imagined the warm blush, turning quickly into a deep scarlet as the spanking proceeded.I closed my eyes as he
SashaLove. L.O.V.E. The concept was honestly ridiculous.And beautiful.And breathtaking.And exhilarating.And maddening.But I was in love with a man I should run far away from. I knew that the odds were against us, danger lurking at every turn, but honestly? I didn't care any longer.In the three weeks since everything had occurred, my life had changed. At least the fifteen minutes of fame for the defamed daughter of a promising presidential candidate was just about over, the newscasters moving onto other scathing stories. And here I sat in a convertible sports car on St. Thomas Island, my hair flowing in the breeze, the day more gorgeous than any I'd seen in months.And I sat beside August."Where are we going? Some beautiful resort?"He grinned, shifting his gaze in my direction. "You're going to have to learn patience, my dear. We'll work on that on this trip. As a matter of fact, we'll take care of that right away."I wiggled in my seat, knowing exactly what that meant. More d
AugustFive Days LaterThe bright sun cast a shimmer down the length of her body as she stood at the window, her lovely copper hair smooth as silk. She seemed pensive, her eyes never blinking as she stared out at the parking lot. I stood in the doorway, watching her.Bathing in her beauty.I heard Bruno behind me, the larger than life man refusing to stay in the hospital for more than two days. He'd been my constant companion, rarely leaving my side. The days had been nothing but a blur of activity, including shoring the ranks within the family, but thankfully, today I was taking her home."I'll be waiting downstairs, boss." Bruno kept his voice hushed, his eyes twinkling from the sight of her.I nodded, waiting until he walked away before taking cautious steps inside. She and I had talked for hours after she'd garnered her strength. Although I hadn't confided about the information in the box, only telling her that her mother was safe and in good hands, she needed to know. After she'd
AugustThe drive was without incident, although I had no doubt that Drummand had summoned various police officers and that they were preparing for a raid. The ammunition I had should be enough to cease the brazen activity. I laughed at the concept. If what I suspected was about to happen did occur, there would be ripples from here to Chicago, a shift in the operation of both the Feds and the two local police departments.There were numerous cars located in my father's driveway, several of which I didn't recognize. I didn't bother to wait for the housekeeper, letting myself inside and immediately heading to my father's office. The door was closed, and I could hear loud voices, angry tones. Within seconds, I was able to recognize the second voice.Carmine Francesco.My father had called him. To have a meeting here and now meant a culmination of betrayals on several levels. I threw open the door, the box under my arm."You have to stop this madness, Gio," Carmine exclaimed. "You have no
AugustAt ten minutes past high noon, I found the fucker, a man I thought I could trust coming out of the district attorney's office by the back door. My hunch had played out. I sat in the shadows, watching as Jo-Jo hunkered down, yanking the collar of his coat up over his neck. He walked toward his truck, the massive F-350 one he insisted on driving. The front-end damage was actually minimal in comparison to the destruction on the SUV. He obviously didn't give a shit that anyone would ask questions. I'd driven by the impound lot, able to see the twisted wreckage that had once been a fully protected vehicle.And my anger continued to increase.I twisted one hand around the steering wheel, the other around my phone, calling Angelo. "I've found him.""Where?""At a location where he shouldn't have been. Meet me at the warehouse with a full crew in one hour. We'll take care of this.""That shithead. What the hell?""Absolution." Jo-Jo had no family, nothing to keep him loyal for any leng
AugustI resisted slamming the cup on the nightstand and jerked to a full standing position just as two nurses bolted into the room."You shouldn't be here!" one of the nurses barked."Don't worry. I'm leaving." I took one last look at him, the gentle giant who'd protected me for so many years. The man would receive his dues soon enough.I moved down the hallway, finding the nurse's station. "Sasha Morales."The nurse glared at me in obvious recognition, taking a full minute before she reacted. The same wretched fear crossed her face as she typed on the keyboard. Everyone was terrified of my wrath. "She's just out of surgery and in recovery.""Her prognosis?"The nurse gave me a comforting smile. "She should be fine. The doctors were able to stop the bleeding, but she had her spleen removed. She did well in surgery.""Where the hell is recovery?" Relief flooded me, but the adrenaline remained high."Are you family?""Her fiancé."The news seemed shocking, her face sagging. "You can se
August"You shouldn't be here, August," Angelo said under his breath as he walked with me down the hospital corridor."Like hell I shouldn't." I stormed down the hall, pushing past anyone who attempted to get in my way."You know it's only a matter of time before they're going to try and arrest you again."I laughed, touching my gun for effect. "As if I give a shit." I noticed a nurse and nearly accosted her as I grabbed her arm. "Sasha Morales. What is going on? Where is she?"The woman sputtered then shook her head. "In surgery from internal injuries, but she's alive. That's all I know.""Where?" I barked."You can't see her, sir. You're going to have to wait." She managed to jerk out of my hold, racing down the hallway."Calm down, August. Bruno is in his room. Talk to him."I ran my fingers through my hair, calming my breathing. "What do we have on the accident?""Nothing right now. The SUV was broadsided somewhere just after nine. There are no cameras at the intersection and nobo
AugustThis had nothing to do with any interrogation. I nodded, scanning the parking lot and surrounding area before climbing inside. By the time he started the engine, his hand was shaking.He roared out of the parking lot, checking the rearview mirror three times before speaking. "I want you to know that I'm putting my job, hell, my career on the line for you and your family." Dick laughed bitterly. "Stupid. I have no idea why I'm doing this.""That begs the question. Why the fuck are you doing this?""Your arrest was a setup.""Tell me something I don't know."He looked as uncomfortable as hell, now sweating profusely. "You have no idea the kinds of connections that Senator Morales has as well as the chief of police and the district attorney. They are hell bent on destroying your operation. And I think there's more upper echelon politicians, law enforcement, and God knows who else in on this. This is fucking huge and terrifying."Wait a minute. What in the hell was he suggesting? "
SashaThe parking lot in front of the UPS store was almost desolate. While the location had a neon sign indicating it was still open, there was no one standing behind the counter. Number 518 was found easily, the group of boxes nestled all the way in the back of the store. When the clerk finally realized there were customers, Bruno had already cut the lock. I chatted with her briefly, finding out the box had been rented for five years, all paid in advance.My hands were shaking as I attempted to open the door, uncertain of what I would find. The shoebox fit almost exactly with no room to spare, the lid taped as if that would matter to prying eyes. I didn't waste time searching the contents. Maybe I really didn't want to know after all.I was so very cold as I secured the seatbelt, my arms and legs shaking. Just holding the thin cardboard in my hands made me feel closer to my mother, but also bitter and angry. Canada. I would hold August and his father to the promise of bringing her ho
