JarekPassing through the front foyer as Jackson sees the seamstress and her assistant out, I inwardly groan when Carmen sweeps through the entrance. She glances back at the two women who just walked out before having her eyes land on me."Please tell me you did not just have your whore get measured," she says dryly.Carmen's been away, so she has no idea about Liliana now living here. So, she's assuming Madame Pearson was here for Sasha. Like I would pay to have a wardrobe made for a submissive meant to remain accessible to me at all times, but it doesn't really matter. My aunt won't approve of my pauper either once she learns her background.I've had to deal with Carmen's shit all these years. I thought I would be able to get rid of her when I came into my parent's fortune, but no. Only when I conceive an Heir can I be rid of her. She hasn't fucked with me since high school graduation, though. She tried once when I came home for the holiday from Crawfords. Carmen threw one of her li
LilianaOh… my… God. Is this seriously about to happen? When I came to this room, I had no idea that my duties would be starting already. I thought he would at least allow me to get comfortable in my new home first. God, was I wrong.My body's a treacherous bitch. The way my pussy liquified at Jarek's first touch had me blushing when he felt it for himself. I don't want him to think I like him because I don't. It's as he said, this is a job.Doing as I was told to do, I go to the bed and lay down, lifting my legs just like he told me to, except I'm a bit embarrassed to open them. Baring myself entirely to the guy who made it his mission to make me miserable in school is mortifying."Don't make me restrain you, pauper. If I do, I can't promise to be as gentle as you want me to be." Jarek's warm hands are large as he places them on top of my knees. "There will be no hiding from me. If I want to look upon your cunt, then you will bare it for me. Do you understand?"I cover my eyes with m
JarekLeaving my pauper in the room as she was couldn't be helped. Losing one's virginity tends to give a woman fanciful thoughts—thoughts that I have no time to entertain. It doesn't matter how much I loved sinking my cock into her tight cunt; I can't have my pauper thinking that it was anything more than what it was.Instead of retiring for the night, I go to my office for a drink. I'm still semi-hard, wanting more of Liliana, but I must discipline myself. I have a feeling that if I allow myself to have her too often, I may become addicted. I'm a Falcon and the Mafia Don—there's no room for love or any shit like that. I take what I need, and I move on. My pauper is here for one reason, and one reason only—to give me an Heir."So, will you ever tell your auntie who this mysterious woman is?" Carmen's voice comes from the doorway.Grinding my teeth in annoyance, I grab my whiskey glass and sit on the couch in the corner. Still dressed in my sweats and bare-chested, I spread my arms ac
LilianaThat asshole!As if the spanking in the backseat of the car wasn't bad enough, the way he played with me and fucked me with his fingers right in front of his driver was humiliating. I know, in most cases, a woman would be pissed if a man teased them and then left them high and dry, but I'm grateful that he wouldn't allow me to come. Doing so in front of Jackson would have been so much worse.We're taking the elevator up to the top floor of Falcon Enterprises where Jarek keeps a possessive hand on the small of my back at all times. He doesn't talk to me, but he does talk to others who get on and off the elevator before it makes it to the twenty-fifth floor.I know nothing of what Jarek does for work, and I had no intention of finding out, but if he's bringing me here, then I should at least know the basics. When it's just the two of us left in the elevator, and we have three floors left to go, I ask, "What, exactly, is Falcon Enterprises?"Jarek gives me a quick glance before r
JarekFeelings. What the fuck do they have to do with shit when trying to get something done. I know I embarrassed my pauper, but she will have to get used to it. She'll learn quickly that my world has no room for feelings. She's here to do a job. Liliana should be happy that I've put her above everybody else, even my submissive. Which I should really think about terminating that contract, but I'll see how it works out with my pauper first.My guys have seen it all when it comes to me and women. I'm not a shy guy by any means. I've fucked in front of them, and yeah, I've shared my sloppy seconds, but Liliana is different—nobody will ever know how good her cunt feels. At least, not while she's with me.Fucking her over the conference room desk was her punishment, and if you ask me, I went easy on her. I could have had my men watch. She never should have tried to walk out or argue with me, for that matter—I've killed for less than that.Leaving her in the conference room while going to
LilianaJarek's words echo in my head as my whole body trembles. He… just… killed… someone… in… cold… blood! What in the hell did I sign myself up for? I had tried to look back at the guy tied to the chair, thinking Jarek was just fucking with me, but he pulled me from the room before I could get a good look. However, I did see the blood splatters all around, confirming that Jarek did, indeed, shoot the guy.I was practically thrown into the backseat of the car before it pulled away and headed back to the Estate. Jarek wouldn't allow me to put a gap between us, so I sat stiff as a board the entire car ride.I stare at the large looming mansion before me as we pull up front and allow the chills to take hold. I get an overwhelming feeling that the place holds a lot of secrets; secrets that I don't care to find out if I can help it.When Jackson opens the door and helps me out, he softly asks, "Are you okay, Liliana?"I just ignore him as I stare off into the distance.Jarek grabs hold o
JarekSasha comes to the dining room and kneels at my feet. When she starts to open her robe, I stop her. "I did not call you down here for that. I want you to go to the kitchen and get yourself fed. I'll require you in about an hour.""But can't I eat here with you, Master? You can have your dessert like old times," she says seductively as her hand snakes up my thigh.I slap it away."I gave you an order; now do as you're told or get the fuck out of my house." I couldn't care less whether she stays at this point; she's only good for one thing and is about to find out what that is.As soon as I've given my little pauper enough time to eat, I go to her. She doesn't seem to be very happy to see me—like I care. I'm trying to keep this strictly business, and unlike Sasha who gets the cage, Liliana is about to find out what happens when you disobey or deny me.I watched Jackson and Lily interact earlier, and although I'm not disturbed by their friendship, I don't want them to spend too much
LilianaI haven't been summoned by the devil or seen him around the mansion in days. Ever since that day he fucked that woman right beside me and then filled me with his seed through a syringe, I've stayed in my room. It wasn't until this morning that I learned Jarek hadn't been home. Jackson talked me into leaving my room and showed me where the library and the media room were located. He, of course, disappeared soon after ensuring I was okay on my own.I know he has other work to do, and how fun can it be babysitting boring ole me? I thanked him and then headed for the library; I've been here ever since. It's been a quiet afternoon, and when I hear the door open, I assume it's Jackson bringing me a snack because I've missed lunch, but it's not. I don't know the woman who's sauntering toward me, wearing a grimace. Is this another one of Jarek's submissives?"Hello. I'm Liliana," I start by being cordial, but it's apparent that she doesn't care to know who I am."Did I ask?" She look
LilianaI don't know exactly how long I've been here. I think it's been two, maybe three days at most. There are no windows down here, and I'm always in the dark. The only light I ever see is when Heath brings me my two meals.I sit in the dark, I eat in the dark, and I use the bathroom in the dark, which consists of a five-gallon bucket. I'm left alone, and that's okay because my situation could be worse. There are many things Heath could be doing to me, but he isn't, and for that, I am thankful.I'm just finishing my lunch when I jump at the sound of the door opening. Typically, Heath doesn't come back until supper time. He leaves me my food and takes my lunch tray back upstairs, so his presence this soon after he's brought me my food is alarming."You get to stretch your legs, Princess." Heath stalks toward me, causing me to cower.I don't mean to show him this weakness, but I'm tired and sore and in no condition to fight off any unwanted attention. Heath doesn't touch me, though. H
JarekThe whole estate is in an uproar over Liliana's disappearance, but none are as distraught as I am. My office looks as if thieves have come in and ransacked it—broken glass and furniture litter almost every corner.Every time we get a lead that doesn't pan out, another bout of destruction occurs. I don't know how much more of this I can take before I start hurting people. Lily's friends have steered clear of me, not that I care. The old bat doesn't like me as it is, so I really don't want to keep seeing her glare at me the way she did when she heard about what happened."What the fuck do you mean Lily was taken? She was with you!" she squawked. "Leave it to a Falcon to fuck shit up! You better pray my friend and that babe are found safe…"The woman pretty much threatened me, but I can't blame her—I fucked up. It's been two fucking days—Lily can be anywhere. Make no mistake, I will not stop until I find my pauper and heaven help the motherfucker who took her. If there's the little
LilianaMy head pounds and my mouth is dryer than the Sahara Desert. I'm feeling disoriented, and when I try opening my eyes, they don't seem to want to cooperate with me."Hurry up, she's waking up," a low, raspy voice states.It sounds a little familiar, but the pressure on my neck has me pushing those thoughts away. I try to move, but I can't pull my hands apart. When I try tugging at them, there's a clinking sound.Am I handcuffed?There's cursing and more pressure, but when I move my head, someone holds it in place."Don't fucking move, Lily."No! I do know that voice—it's Heath!I try screaming, and that's when I realize my mouth is taped shut. Even with my head throbbing, I start to struggle, but then I feel the weight of a body as it straddles my waist. My first thought is the baby, and I still, not wanting anything to happen to him."Will you hurry the fuck up already?" Heath barks at whoever he's with.I hear a loud snap, and then my neck feels bare. They took my collar off.
JarekWhat a way to rain on my fucking parade. Someone is going to pay dearly for interfering with this special day. As pissed as I am about being interrupted, I can't help the grin that splays across my lips from hearing the good news. We're having a boy."I'm sorry you were called away, Mr. Falcon. I can go back and pick her up once I drop you off," Jackson offers.I wave him off. "I've already contacted Richards to go pick her up. Hopefully, the damage isn't as bad as Lansky made it sound.""Lansky is the one who called you?" Jackson asks, frowning."Yeah, what of it?""Nothing…" he shakes his head. "I just figured it would be someone higher up the ladder."Although Jackson's statement is true, there would be chaos if there were an explosion. The warehouse manager was probably trying to delegate jobs to everyone. I shrug off his words and pull my phone out.A text from Lily tells me that Richards has picked her up, but before I can respond, Jackson curses. I look up and see the des
Liliana"What's wrong?" Joey asks as soon as we walk into the study.I tried to put on a straight face, but apparently, I've failed miserably. Everyone is used to Jarek's broody expression, so I'm sure the question wasn't because of him. Forcing myself to smile, I look up at Jarek, who returns it with one of his own."Nothing is wrong—at least, it isn't anymore." Jarek winks at me before looking at his friend. "Have you seen your fiancé by chance?""Actually, no. She excused herself to use the restroom. I should probably go find her." Joey starts to walk past us, but Jarek grabs his arm, stopping him."I think you and your father should hear what I have to say first." Jarek releases Joey's arm and rests his other arm around my waist."What's going on?" Lonzo furrows his brows."Well, I was just accosted in the bathroom by Gina. That's what's wrong.""Who is Gina?" The confusion on the older man's face makes me want to giggle."It's Gia, for fuck's sake, and are you fucking kidding me
Jarek"So, Mr. Falcon. How long is this drive, anyway?"I watch Lily run her hand up and down her bare thigh as she asks me this in a low, sultry voice. My dick hardens instantly as I watch her hand move the hem of her dress up a little higher each time she brings it back."It's a decent drive. Do you have any ideas about how we can keep ourselves occupied?" I ask, smirking.Looking all innocent, Liliana bats her long, dark lashes at me, replying, "Oh, I can think of a few different things, but what is it that you want to do, Sir?"Jesus, fuck. This woman is going to be the death of me. She has no idea what she does to my insides. I'm a ruthless Mafia Boss, yet I'm liquid in this seductress's presence.After taking in my fill of her, I order, "Straddle my lap, pauper."The spark that lights up her brown eyes makes my cock twitch. She likes being ordered by me—at least, in this instance—and as she swings her leg over my lap, I catch a glimpse of her bare cunt.Taking her hips in my han
LilianaThe days following Jarek's return are a whirlwind. My emotions are all over the place. One minute we're loving up on each other, not being able to get enough of the other, and the next, I'm pissed at him for something he's done, mainly where his work is concerned.I won't deny that I hate who he is, but I knew this coming into my situation, so why am I raising such a fuss over it? I can no longer lie to myself—I'm falling in love with the devil, and it scares the shit out of me."Just calm down, Lily. Is it really all that bad?" Heidi asks as I pace back and forth in their small cottage.Fran went to the Garden center because she's been working on the outside flower beds around the little house. She says it keeps her busy. I'm afraid of what she would say if she knew about my feelings for the Falcon Heir."He kills people, Heidi!""But they're bad men, aren't they?" Her brow raises as she questions me."That's beside the point.""Is it? It seems he's doing some good getting ot
JarekThe sun is going down, and I still have Liliana in my bed. I'm nowhere near being done with her. However, I'm allowing her to rest as I hold her in my arms.Her breaths come out in little whisps through her slightly parted lips as she sleeps. Her hair sticking to her face from sweating after the three rounds we have gone already. I probably should have had her shower, but I'm not ready to have her wash me off her body yet, even if I do plan on marking her again.When I hear her stomach growl, I curse inwardly, forgetting that she hasn't eaten. She must keep her strength up for what I have planned for tonight and for the baby.Reaching over to the nightstand, I grab my phone and text Jackson to bring us some dinner. Then, I snap a few pictures of Liliana sleeping. She looks so peaceful, like a beautiful dark angel. I've never met anyone like her. I'm not sure why I've been so infatuated with Liliana Sumner all these years, but I don't think it's going to change anytime too soon.
LilianaIt's just after two in the afternoon. My friends and I are sitting around the outdoor pool, getting a little sun and chit-chatting when the sliding door opens, and out walks Jarek. My smile is genuine when I see him at first, but then it slowly drops as he stalks toward me.I can't take my eyes off his handsome face and powerful form as he closes in on us, his eyes focused solely on me. I faintly hear Fran saying something sarcastic, but my brain doesn't want to comprehend anything except the devil coming straight for me.Jarek stops in front of me, his dark eyes smoldering as they trace my bikini-clad figure. His voice cuts through the air, deep and commanding, like thunder rolling across the sky. "Excuse us, ladies," he says, his gaze never leaving mine. Lily and I have some catching up to do."He then bends down and scoops me up as if I weigh nothing at all. Turning, he walks back toward the house. I can hear Heidi giggling behind us."What are you doing, Jarek? I thought y
