Don POV I would definitely go to the end of the Earth to kill whoever would dare lay a finger on my family, my wife or even disturb my peace and Salvatore wasn't an exception. I would wipe out the whole Sebastian family if I had to. It was better of her status hidden just the way he has always done. I had decided to keep low but my eyes and ears were squarely opened and focused on Salvatore. My men were tight on him, monitoring his every move and every one he relates to. I would strike before he even lifts a finger if I notice that he was being fishy or snoopy. I couldn't wait to risk anything and I wouldn't let him or anyone ruin me or my family again. I had called Romano in and told him about how I need to tighten the security around the estate where we reside. I cannot leave any stone unturned. Romano was meant to come to the house today so we could discuss the necessary arrangements and plans that would be made.I would have gone to the curb but I have been extremely busy
Claire POV Don walked through the front door as I was descending the stairs and the moment his eyes landed on me, his eyebrows furrowed. He passed his gaze down my white shirt and tight beige miniskirt, then moves his eyes back to lock them with mine. I smirked and leaned my hip on the banister, enjoying the look of displeasure that passed his face. Without breaking eye contact, he slowly climbed the stairs and stopped on the step below me.“I thought I picked the navy dress for you today, Claire,” he said and wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me into his body. “Did I not?”“You did.” I tilted my head up and smiled, “But I wanted to see what would happen if I didn’t do what you said. Maybe I was looking forward to being punished for my misbehavior.”The corner of Don's lips curved up and his hand moved lower to squeeze my butt cheek.“To the bedroom,” he whispered next to my ear, then squeezed my butt cheek again. “Run.”I squealed and dashed up the stairs. When I’m in the mi
Claire POV “Do you want me to remove it? Or will you do it?” I asked.“The toy stays, Tesoro,” he said.“What? Inside?” I looked at him over my shoulder in shock, but he just smiled.When we were both dressed and ready to go, he sauntered over and pressed his palm over my pussy. “Looks like a perfect fit. No one will even notice it since it was specifically designed to be wearable.”The situation still had me reeling when he added, “Let’s go.”I took a first, tentative step. The silicone is soft, and the pussy plug doesn’t impede my progress, but my walls do brush the sides of it with every shift. It’s almost like having Don's finger in me. The narrow end nested between my folds was touching my clit, rubbing it discreetly with each movement.Another step, then one more. The odd feeling dissipates as I walk, and by the time we reach the stairway, the strangeness is gone completely, replaced with an unexpected sense of... comfort.“So?” Don asked next to my ear. “Do you like it?”“Yes
Claire POV “So? What do you think?” Don watched with boyish anticipation as I lifted a forkful of gnocchi to my mouth.I pretended to mull it over before I proclaimed, “Best I’ve ever had.” His grin made the butterflies in my stomach reel.“Told you,” he said, oozing playful self-satisfaction.We were eating dinner at a tiny French restaurant tucked in the heart of Columbia Heights. Instead of individual tables, one rustic wooden table stretched down the middle, just large enough to seat a dozen people. A candlelit chandelier bathed the room in a flickering glow, and a display of copper pots and pans hung on the exposed brick wall.It felt like we were eating in someone’s home, especially since there were few people in the restaurant. “Don’t be too smug.” I pointed my fork at him. “The date is only half done. I’ve yet to grade you on your hand-holding, cuddling, and sweet little skills.” “Of course. Apologies,” he drawled. “Didn’t mean to jump the gun.” “Apology accepted.” I tuc
Claire POV"You must be joking." Elyse snapped at me with a huge frown on her face. "I'm 100% serious baby. We're leaving for our honeymoon by next week. We've even booked our flights and-""Shut up!" She screamed angrily. I looked at her in surprise, "Why? Why do you say so?"She eyed me suspiciously, "So you don't know why?"I shook my head and said, "Really not.""Then, if you go with your jolly husband to Paris to spend your honeymoon for days, who do you intend to leave me here for?" Elyse asked pouting."It's a month." I corrected, ignoring her outburst."A month?" Elyse shrieked, her eyes wide."Yes, a month." I shot back. "Elyse but you know we need to spend some time together. We've been in a lot of trouble already and it's time for us to unwind." I explained. "Then I'm going with you guys. Let me start packing up too." Elyse said as she made to go to her room. "Elyse please don't!" I blocked her at the door stopping her. "Honeymoons are meant for couples and not friend
Claire’s POVTime flew fast and next week was already here. It was a cool Tuesday evening, the day Don and I were supposed to leave for Paris for our honeymoon. Aside from the fact that Don kept me awake for most of the night last night because he obviously couldn’t keep his hands to himself, after our session, I had stayed awake thinking of what our honeymoon was going to be like. I had a lot of places to visit in Paris, a lot of things to see. Matter of fact, I had made a list two days ago and I hoped to tick every friggin’ thing on the list. Don sure wasn’t going to say no to my requests. He loved me too much to turn me down. Besides, if he also had any fun thing in mind to do, I was also ready. “A penny for your thoughts?” Don’s timber voice broke into my reverie. I whipped my head to the door. He closed it quietly behind him as he ambled toward my form. I briefly checked him out. I was indeed lucky to have this fine specimen of a man as my own. “What’s on your mind, Tesoro?”
Don's Pov"Fuck!" A groaning pain escaped my lips the moment the bullet brushed my arm. I couldn't hold on to Claire any longer as I fell to my side immediately. "Don!" Claire's trembling voice squealed as tried to rush over to me, her face filled with terror."Stay down, Claire!" I warned her, wasting no time in grabbing an empty gun from the back pocket of a dead bodyguard beside me. I shot two times at the attackers who in turn doubled the shots. Clutching my bleeding hand, I struggled to get up using my bodyguards as shields."Don, leave. We would handle this!" One of my guards looked back and said, but fell flat to the ground when the attackers unexpectedly shot at him. I returned the headshot to the assailants, firing one of their men too. Bullets flew in the air and one almost hit Claire. "Stay the fucking down, Claire!" Rage rushed through my veins as I pulled her head down."I'm sorry…I'm scared" Her jittering teeth were enough evidence. "No. I'm sorry, this is what you ge
Claire's povMy eyes opened and the first person my gaze met was Romano, with his usual stoic face. I raised my head from the bed I was lying on, looking around to see, I was in the hospital. My mind recollected the last incident in a flash and I looked at my thighs. It was clean and free from blood and neither were there any bruises. I turned to see that it was just me and Romano in the room. "Where is Don?" I asked, my voice very faint."He is doing okay" Romano responded. "How are you too? Do you feel any pain?" He asked."No, I feel good. I need to see Don" I hurriedly left the bed, but he held me back. "The doctor asked you to take a good rest. Don is treating his bullet wound. He would be here soon" he insisted."But he…" I remembered how Damien shot the attacker and how he carried me even with his injured arm. "I need to see my husband, are you sure he is okay?""Claire.." Don's voice pared into the room. I saw his hand wrapped with a bandage, but he walked in like nothing h
