Violet
I heard whispering and scraping of something smooth against the back of my thighs .While I try to regained my consciousness ,the masculine scent of musky,sandalwood and a hint of cedar filled my lungs . The snap and crackle of a fireplace. Warmth creeps up my fingers and my toes. I turn toward it, snuggle in against the hard unrelenting surface. Him. He is near. He had crawled into the back of the car with me, had wound his big body around mine and he’d choked me until I had fainted. I crack open my eyelids and the world swims in my line of sight.
"How dare you do this to me ?" I cough. "You knocked me out, you obnoxious bastard ."
"Well I guess I am not a freak anymore but rather a bastard,and sleep haven’t solved your aggressiveness , huh?" A lean arm appears in front of me, holding a glass of water. "Drink up ."
I purse my lips, gulp, glare from the glass of water to his handsome, gorgeous, ugly-mean features.
"Do as I say or I will shove it down your throat myself ." His tone is soft but he doesn’t fool me. But he look like bastard who could do it , too. I reach for the glass. The water slides between my parched lips. I drank it. My swollen tongue thanks me, and the drumming behind my temples seems to recede. I lower the glass, I’m in a leather chair, and a seat belt is strapped across my lap. I also have my running clothes on. I glance down and find my feet are still clad in my sneakers. The low hum of engines, and the kind of luxury only the filthy rich can buy, reaches me.
“Are we on a plane ?”
I studied at the face of my kidnapper. He sits opposite me . Elbows on the armrests, fingers steep led together in front of him, his legs are spread apart, in the soft fabric of his linen pants, and between them, the unmistakable bulge of, I jerk my chin up, meet his gaze.
"Private jet, am I right ? I guess crime really does pay off l. How did you acquire it? Did you kill the owner?"
“Actually ,I tortured him and by the time I was finish with him ,there was no blood left in his pathetic ass body”
I just sat and stared subtle .
He laughs and I can’t tell if it’s because it’s true or he just likes the look on my face and wants to torment me.
"Do you want more water?"
"What I want…" I tighten my grip on the glass, "is to smash your face ." I pull my arm back and hurl the glass at him. It catches him at the side of the temple, then falls to the carpet with a soft fall. Blood blooms from the gash, a trickle of scarlet that rolls down his temple, over the razor-sharp, high cheekbone.
There was sudden movement, then the barrel of gun is pushed against my temple.
"Alessio ,Do you need me to kill her ?" A hard male voice sounds from somewhere to the side and above me. I swallow and my pulse begins to race.
Alessio rubs his chin as he considers me.
The barrel of the gun digs deeper into my temple. I wince, but don’t take my gaze off the asshole opposite.
Finally, Alessio tilts his head. "Not yet," he rumbles, and I stiffen.
The cold metal disappears from my skin, and I am not ashamed to say that the tension drains from my body.
"Oh,one more thing Henrico ?"
Henrico tilts his head.
"No one gets to pull a gun on her, except me. No one hurts her, but me." His lips curl.
I set my jaw and his grin widens. "Now leave us," he growls and Henrico retreats to the far end of the cabin. Fuck, now we are alone. Maybe it would be better if Henrico were still here. So what, if he held a gun to my temple? Mafia asshole who eyes me like I am the tastiest morsel ever. I tip up my chin, grip the handles of my seat,
"If that was meant to scare me…"
“Shut the hell up!”
My heart raises .
“Don’t you dare try to talk to me like---”
He swoops forward so fast that the blood from his temple splashes onto my blouse .
"I mean it, Pretty face . Keep those pretty lips zipped or I’ll stuff your mouth, and it won’t be with your favorite cupcake."
My shoulder muscles lock, my core puckers. I squeeze my thighs together to stop the trembling that I felt with him being so close to my body.
"Unless." He taps his fingertips together, peruses my features. "Unless that’s what you want?"
No.
"Maybe that’s why you’ve been barking at me, scratching at me, demanding my attention, making it difficult for me to concentrate on anything but your face, your legs, the hard nipples of your breasts that tremble in anticipation of my touch, hmm?"
Of course, not. What the hell is he talking about?
"Is this what pleases you?" I drop my gaze to his crotch, where his bulge has grown noticeably bigger in the last few seconds. "Bulging it over those helpless in front of you, those weaker than you? Does that make you feel more superior ? Does it feed you obnoxious bastard?"
"No, but this will."
He grabs the hardness between his legs and squeezes it. I flinch. My toes curl. I should look away from how he cups the thick girth between those powerful thighs. My throat closes, my ribcage tightens, and moisture pools at my core.
"Look down."
"What?" I jerk my chin up.
“You have two choices ,you get down on your knees and blow me or “
Or what?
"I will get down on my knees, pull your legs apart and eat you out. And then I let you blow me."
AlessioShe looks up at me from under her lashes. Her blond hair stand still on her shoulders, her cheeks flushed, she chews on her lower lip and the blood rushes to my vein. As if I weren’t hard enough already. I drag my arm to the side, force my body to relax.She tips her chin up and her green eyes spark fire. Something hot stabs at my chest. This woman, she’s. a fighter. A survivor, like me. Who will break first? Me or her? It has to be her. It will be her, if it’s the last thing I do.But I want more. I need her open and thirsting for what only I can give her. I have to own her, body and soul, until her every emotion is mine to read. Her every thought is mine to see. Her every wish is mine and only mine to grant. If I so deem it.I pulled her back and swoop her down ,digging my fingers into her hair and tug as her head arches ,I wrap my other hand around her neck .This was too canal ,it was not how I intended it to be .I thought I was in control in all of this but I was wrong,A
Violet I didn’t understand this guy ,one minute funny and another minute completely arrogant.He was an emotionally unstable prick who felt like he owned me and can order me around but I will show him.As much as I hated him ,I found him very attractive ,I want to have his full and complete focus, to be the cynosure of all that smoldering, melting scrutiny. To have his fingers dig into my skin, my aching core.The hell is wrong with me? He’d wanted me. Despite what he’d said earlier, he’d enjoyed what I’d done to him. Perhaps, too much? Had I scared him away? A low chuckle catches in my throat. Am I being delusional? Me, the woman who had practiced blow jobs by watching them on the internet …and the erotic novels I’ve been reading since I turned fifteen. Don’t judge. Well, as much as a teenage girl had been able to access, that is. God bless the internet. Alessio We have arrived at my Island a few hours ago but I stared at the camera is pointing at the bed at the woman sleeping o
Alessio He steps back, shuts the door behind him, and I turn to my brothers, "What the hell are you guys doing here ?""Someone’s pissed,"Fabian murmurs."Think big brother, here, isn’t getting enough?" Alessandro smirks.“Maybe he isn’t satisfied enough with what he has ?After all ,quality over quantity ,isn’t that what they say ,” Fabien said as he precedes the other one further into the room.I stared at the three of them prowling around my space.Alessandro lowers himself into a chair and props his feet on the coffee table,Fabian sinks into a couch ,“I thought you were suppose to be in London ?” Fabian jerks his chin at me ,“I was ,”“Is it because of a woman you had to return so urgently ?”I hold his gaze and didn’t say anything else .“I knew it !” Alessandro exclaimed .”It always have to be lady who pus him in such a scrappy mood”“Well it not only my mood which is going to be in scrappy mood soon” I bashed out .I hold his gaze, don’t say anything else."Knew it," Fabien
Alessio"To our Capo," Carlos fixes his gaze on mine, "and to the alliance with the Seven.""The Seven?" Alessandro turns to me, "That’s who your new bride is related to?"I tilt my head, "Is that a problem?"He scratches his chin, "Amongst them all, they own most of the UK and parts of Silicon Valley too, I hear." He fixes his gaze on me, "Ambitious, are we?""Well as long as it is not my life ,there is not a problem." He raises a shoulder. "And I assume this has to do with getting access to enough connections to consolidate your position with the other families?"Alessandro really is smart. He got this all figure without me saying a word."So," Fabien glances between us, "when do we get to meet your new bride?""At the wedding," I murmur"What?" Alessandro blinks. "We don’t get to meet her before?""No.""Don’t you trust us with her?" Carlos drawls."Never." I fold my arms across my chest."Aww that is sad ." Alessandro smirks. "The way you’re acting, you’d think you have her h
AlessioThe hair on my forearms rises. All of senses was being alerted. I swivel around and catch her around the waist, lift her off of the ground."You are a such a coward. I bloody hate you," she snarls, then swings her fists. I duck. I must be losing my touch, for her knuckles graze my jaw, My groin tightens and my balls ache. I tighten my grip around her. "Stop.""How dare you take the advantage of insulting me …you…Loser?"A chuckle trembles up my throat and I swallow it. "Calm down.""Let go of me.""No."She goes still."No?""Not until your blood pressure drops back to normal.""The only person I see having a bloody cardiac is you." She brings up her knee. I twist my body to the side, she catches me in the thigh, and damn it, but my cock instantly lengthens. The hell is wrong with my reactions, that I can’t control myself around her?"Back off, Pretty face or you’ll regret it."She makes that noise deep in her throat, that sound of anger and frustration that sends sparks down
Violet I can’t believe that he spanked me .After he left ,I ignore the clothes on the bed just as he has ignored me earlier ,Yeah we both can play hat game,If he thinks I am going to obey him like a pet after what he did to me ,he sure don’t know who I am.I don’t care if he decided to spank me again ,might as well do it then follow his orders . I had marched over to the closet, then pulled on the first dress I had come across—this knee-length dress in red, which I absolutely hate, but whatever. It’s something to cover myself up with. There had been enough clothes in the walk-in closet… Most of them seemed new, along with underclothes that were made of the finest laces…and decadently cut. And all the clothes fit me... no doubt about it, they were to my measurements, how the hell had he managed that? How had he gotten them delivered here so quickly? I'd run my fingers over the fabric of the dresses in the closet. Everything is exquisite. Even if they have been bought off the shelf th
Alessio“Please forgive my smallest stepbrother ,he can be very annoying at times”Alessandro grabs her palms and brings it up to his lips.I can’t believe he is strictly y defying my orders ,I strictly warned all of my brothers not to touch her ,next to him Fabien shuffles his feet.“Sandro, we should leave “"What’s the hurry?" He drawls in a tone that ensures that I can hear it.Clearly, he is testing me. I roll my shoulders, take a step forward. Then stop. It won’t do to give away what I feel…which is…a confusing set of emotions that sits heavy in my gut.I take in her face, her gaze alight as she glances up at him. No doubt, her attention is captured by the bastard’s beautiful countenance. It’s what makes people trust him, that is, until he pulls the rug out from under them.Alessandro’s smile widens. His gaze dips to her lips, down the slope of her breasts—and I snarl low in my throat.He laughs."Why,principesa, it’s going to be delightful to get to know you.""Didn’t I tell you
VioletAfter Alessio and I ate dinner ,there was a quick knock on the door and Mauricio came to clear the table ,He remove Alessio’s plate and sets a white coffee cup next to him ,then walks over to me and collected my plate .“Grazie ,Maurico” ,I said with a smile"Prego, signorina." He walks out just another women enters the dining room.She’s wearing a chef’s apron and a scarf around her neck. Her black dress reaches to just above her knees, and on her feet are six-inch heels. Hangona second. Who cooks wearing stilettos? I sit up, stalk her as she walks to the far end of the table. She glances from me to Alessio.Her eyes flare up and her lips churn when she saw me.Alessio jerks his chin toward the woman, who nods. She takes off her scarf, places it on the table. Then unties the apron and lets it drop on the floor.Umm, what?She flips around a chair, steps onto it, then onto the table.I scowl, "What the hell is she doing?"Alessio ignore me. I glance toward him and find that he’s
VioletAt least, last night, he had come to bed at midnight, and I had woken up enough to wrap myself around my husband and fall asleep. He’d kissed me tenderly, had run his hands down my body, aroused me to fever pitch, only to slip my nightgown and my panties aside and slide his fingers into me. He’d slid down my body, eaten me out, then he’d risen over me and pinched my clit as he’d commanded me to come. And I had. I had shattered right there, and then, promptly fallen asleep, sated.It was almost noon when I woke up to find a letter on his pillow, asking me to peek out of the window. I had, and had cried out when I had seen a car… Not just any car, a Maserati. A twin of his…but in black, with a red line running across its side, and wrapped up in a bow. It’s my car. My car! OMG! I had showered, changed, eaten a late breakfast, then rushed down to examine my new toy.It is beautiful, with sleek lines that remind me of him, a color dark enough to hint at his growly personality, and a
Violet It’s six days to the Christmas party, and I am almost done with the projects I have undertaken. My dress is done. So is the other outfit I have been working on. My morning sickness is also almost gone. And if I have to stay another day cooped up in here, I am going to go stark, raving mad. Clearly, the lack of sex is getting to him. Since our tryst on the terrace, I have not seen him at all. If he does sleep at night… It, clearly, isn’t in the bed next to me, as his side of the bed remains untouched when I awake in the mornings. He hasn’t been in the room, as far as I can tell. Which means he is sleeping somewhere else. Likely, in his office atV enom. Is he also sleeping withsomeone else there? But he said that he wasn't screwing anyone else. He wouldn't lie to me, would he? I tighten my fingers and Andy yowls in protest.He flicks out his baby claws and I yelp as he scratches me. I release him and he jumps down to the floor, then walks away with his tail high in the air. I
AlessioI draw in a sharp breath, glance at him. "What are you trying to say, Alessandro?" I say in a soft voice."Just that you are no longer Alessio, the Capo of the Cosa Nostra.""I’m not?" I frown.He nods, "You are a husband and a father-to-be, too… Roles which you, clearly, place a lot more importance on than just being the leader of our clan."I blink, "If you mean I am neglecting my duties as the head of the clan—""I mean that you are taking a bigger picture into view. You are looking to the future, and for the first time, you are planning with peace in mind, rather than a short-sighed chance to gain the upper hand."I rub the back of my neck, "Is that a backhanded compliment? If so—""It’s not a compliment. It’s a fact." He folds his arms across his chest. "You want to ensure that you neutralize any possible threats against your family. It’s understandable. It’s why you went ahead and met with two of our fiercest rivals. It’s why you didn’t breathe a word about it to anyone
Alessio "I hear your wife’s throwing a Christmas party?" JJ Kane, the head ofThe Kane Company, tilts his head, "That’s the thing with women. They have to make their presence felt, don’t they?"I curl my fingers into fists at my sides. How dare he talk about her? And how the hell does he know about the Christmas Party? Invitations had only been extended to my brothers, my father and my Nonna. And yeah, Beauty had insisted that Isabelle and Aurora be included.Initially, I had refused her and she had pleaded with me. She had batted those big, green eyes at me and I had been a goner. Of course, I had agreed. Isabelle is loyal, no question. And Aurora? She knows better than to open her mouth about anything she sees and hears. There’s no way either of them would have spoken to anyone about the event. My brothers wouldn’t have breathed a word to anyone… Nor would Nonna. As for the Don... Well, much as I don’t trust him, given he knows that Violet is pregnant with his grandchild, not even
Violet We didn't get to the dessert, after all. After I came, he'd taken off his shirt and made me wear it over my torn dress. Then he'd scooped me up into his arms and carried me to his bedroom. We hadn't encountered anyone on the way. Not Isabelle, not Pablo. Apparently, his staff knows when to make themselves scarce. And, yep, he broke his own rule for us to have separate bedrooms. I had fallen asleep promptly. When I woke up, he was gone. I had spent the rest of that day working on my dress, with Andy for company. Oh, also I'd moved my things into his room, and he hadn't said anything. It might be because I didn't see Alessio all that day, or for that matter, on any of the days that followed our reconciliation. Isabelle mentioned to me that he has been deep in negotiations with rival clans to restore some semblance of peace in the country. This means that the security around the house has been tripled… Or so she tells me. Not that I can tell the difference. For all practical
AlessioThis woman... The things she says... She never ceases to surprise me. I grip her shoulders to pull her up and she wraps her arms around my neck. "I mean it, Ales," she murmurs, "I want you inside me, one way or the other.""I don’t want to hurt you." I wrap a strand of her gorgeous hair around my fingers, "Right now, your comfort is more important than anything else to me.""And I already told you that I want you."I peer into her face, take in her flushed features, her gaze wide with anticipation; those green eyes stare back at me and in them is a look of feverish need. I wrap my fingers about the back of her nape and bring her forehead to mine, "Any other time, if you weren’t pregnant, I’d not deny this to you, but right now, given your condition, it’s not something I can give you.""Alessio," she pleads, "this is no time for an attack of conscience."I laugh, "Trust me, if it were up to me, I’d be inside you so often you wouldn’t be able to walk straight, but this is not ju
Violet "Dessert?" I blink rapidly. "Is Pablo going to serve us dessert?""He offered to make dolce for us, but I told him to wait. We’ll have it after.""After?" My cheeks heat, "After what?""After..." He lifts me up onto the table, then pushes my legs apart. The dress I’m wearing is pushed up to above my knees. He slides his fingers up my thighs, and I try to squeeze them together."Relax," he murmurs, "I am going to make this so good for you."That’s what I am afraid of.I peer at him from between my eyelashes. "I thought you weren’t going to shag me?""Doesn’t mean I can’t pleasure you," his eyes gleam, "while I feast on you."A pulse flares to life between my legs. It mirrors the beat of my heart, the thud-thud-thud of the blood roaring in my ears as he rises to his feet. Without taking his gaze off of mine, he leans over and shoves the rest of the crockery aside. The dishes and remaining cutlery hit the ground with a crash that sweeps through me. He eases me onto my back, then
Violet "This is where we’re having dinner," he murmurs as he lowers me into a chair. I take in the crisp white table cloth that covers a table that has been set with silverware for two. The alcove is sheltered from the breeze by a screen on one side. The view itself is undisturbed though, and I glance out at the sea that stretches out into the distance. A cool breeze tugs at my hair. I tuck the strands behind my ear, turn back to the table arrangement. There’s a vase in the center of the table with one single perfectly formed black rose, the edges of the petals a blood red. It’s a perfect bloom, unlike anything I have ever seen. He reaches for a blanket that has been placed on a stool by the side. He places it over my lap, then tucks it at the sides. "How does that feel?" "Good," I murmur. "Not too cold? Not too warm?" He nods toward the patio heater, "Should I turn that off?" "No," I pat the edge of the blanket, "I am comfortable, as is." "Good." He reaches for a napkin, shakes
Alessio I walked into the room to find beauty and fabian glancing in my direction, and the expression on her face is laced with guilt. I prowl toward her and she tips up her chin. "Were you talking about me, Beauty?" I murmur and she huffs."My every conversation is not about you.""What were you two talking about, then?""None of your business.""Everything about you is my business," I pause in front of her, "and you’d do best not to forget that."Fabian clears his throat, and I shoot him a sideways glance."We were discussing the Christmas bash," he explains."Is that right?" I turn to her, "That what’s got you tied up in knots, huh?""Exactly," she snickers, "Iam the one tied up in knots." She exchanges a glance with Fabian who chuckles."She’s been worried about finding a DJ for the party. It’s why I offered my services.""You’re going to DJ?" I scowl."Sure," he raises a shoulder, "it’s no biggie. I did it at many of the parties during my university days.""And here I thought y
