The Mafia Don's Obsession 52. Lucien: Introspection
Lucien strode out, limping ever so slightly and made for his room, slamming the door behind him. He was breathing heavily. The scene with his little wife had been unpleasant. Seeing her distress had made him feel sick of himself, an emotion he had never felt before.The sight of the little vixen never failed to arouse him. That luscious body, the fragrant hair, the way she melted when he touched her. And the sight of her soft, plump lips, her eyes, wide and so fresh, so innocent and guileless.His c*ck reared painfully and he knew he would have to relive his sexual frustration just then.He groaned.He wanted her so badly, it felt like a physical thing.But much as he knew he would have been able to take her, yes, use her as he wont to before their marriage, he found that he could not do so anymore. Heck, he found that he had lost his desire for any other woman a long while back. The only woman he wanted was Proserpina. His Woman.Besides, he was not sure that she would give in to him
The Mafia Don's Obsession 53. Changes
ProserpinaIt was now a month since our last, violent meeting and I had not set eyes on Lucien since.We, the children and I, never went down if there was a hint of guests arriving. Instead, we hid away like ghosts, staying upstairs until Beatrice appeared to announce that the coast was clear.*The man I had married never came to see us, the twins and I. But his friend, James Schwartz, often turned up, to stay for hours, playing with the kids, quite happy to be in his shirt sleeves, becoming a horse, a donkey or whatever the kids wished him to be. He would make them laugh as he sat on the floor of the nursery, or carry them around on his strong shoulders, whooping and shouting making them laugh. I saw the gentleness, the tenderness in his face as he watched my children and I knew that he was a good man with a tragic story.At first, I kept my distance and apart from an occasional remark, he did not seem to want to talk to me. But on more than one occasion, I caught his green eyes on
The Mafia Don's Obsession 54. Once again...
ProserpinaThe feeling of déjà vu that struck me as I stood in the cool, tiled bathroom that morning was so strong, I felt like I was back in the past.I had missed my period again.And the tiny strip I held in my hands proved that my worst fears had come true.Lucien had gotten me pregnant again.***With everything that was going on in my life, I had possibly pushed it to the back of my mind, the niggling feeling of weariness that had persisted.And from the sheer exhaustion I had been feeling, the nausea I had dismissed as emotional trauma, I knew that the signals had been clearly there. My body had been shouting out trying to tell me what my mind had been suppressing with a vengeance.To be honest, I had been too preoccupied to take notice. Trying to shut out my feelings for Lucien had made me immerse myself in my work. During the daytime, I spent as much them as I could with my twins. Sita was like a person who shadowed us, generally good company but not really either a companion
The Mafia Don's Obsession Ice
ProserpinaI came awake suddenly. Something had disturbed me: what was it? a noise? A touch?I opened my eyes and almost screamed.Lucien stood a little away from me. The charcoal grey suit he was wearing was slightly rumpled as though he had dressed in a hurry. His pristine white shirt was open at the throat, revealing his neck, that tanned throat and the hint of his hirsute chest that I had cuddled into on many an occasion in the past.His grey-blue eyes were ringed with exhaustion and he looked as though he had aged at least ten years, that firm mouth a straight line...***I shot up in bed, huddling into my comforter, enraged. HOW DARE HE COME INTO MY ROOM, I thought.“What are YOU doing here?' I demanded fury and fear mingling in my voice.He stood looking at me silently, swaying slightly.Drunk as always, I thought, my lips curling in derision.He noticed the contempt in my face and the expression on his face darkened...“What are you doing here?’ I hissed again, and then, taunt
The Mafia Don's Obsession 56. Schwartz
LucienHe stood facing the lawns, a drink in his hand. They had come to the big house, the mansion which Lucien Delano had constructed. It was a visit that had happened only at Schwartz's insistence. Handsome James had said that he wanted to invite Proserpina to his party in person, and despite, Lucien's disapproval, he had stood his ground, his handsome face set.'I don't trust you, mate.' He had grinned finally, the deep clefts in his cheeks appearing, making him look more like a model than a gangster.‘You might not bring her; f*ck, knowing you mate, you might not even tell her about my invitation.’Once again the dimpled grin, rakish and disarming appeared on Handsome James's face. Lucien grunted.Although he had shrugged indifferently when his friend had insisted, within him, the familiar jealousy grew. Why did Schwartz want to meet his wife?She belonged to HIM.And Only Him.*Now from where he stood, hidden by the dark windows, Lucien watched disapprovingly.Schwartz was headi
The Mafia Don's Obsession 57. Embarassment
Proserpina'Having a good time, eh?' growled Lucien and I sat up, suddenly bolt upright as though I had been zapped by a Taser. My husband had been drinking but his face was cold, eyes sharp as they took in my flushed face. They slid over my body and I shivered.How could I ever get over this man? He was like a drug.Schwartz however, was unmoved. Swivelling, he stood up easily, hands in his pockets, mirroring Lucien's stance on the grass and smiled lazily. He seemed to be weighing up the situation and choosing his words before answering. When he drawled, there was an easy look on his face:"Mate, I see a despondent-looking lady, I make her laugh. My good deed for the day has been done.'He turned to look at me and then winked outrageously and I dimpled in return, unable to resist.He was such an incorrigible flirt! And a harmless one at that.Behind us, I felt Lucien stiffen.From the corner of my vision. I also sensed Sita shift restlessly.***Ria appeared before Lucien could respo
The Mafia Don's Obsession 58. Making Amends
Lucien knew that he would smash his friend's face if he stayed and he had no intention of scaring the children. He turned and strode towards the house, determined to take it out on his wife. But she was in the kitchen, her hair in a messy bun, tendrils curling around her flushed cheeks and long neck, with her arms deep in the dough as she prepared dinner. She was surrounded by the kitchen staff, who stood around, watching her with interest. Beatrice stood close, talking rapidly, watching over Proserpina with pride.He stood in the doorway, studying the cosy atmosphere.Suddenly conversation in the room stilled as the staff became aware of the Boss lurking in the doorway, his men behind him.Proserpina turned and her cheerful expression melted away. A shutter came down on her face and she stood silently, the bowl of dough before her, waiting for him to speak." I need to talk to you,’ he said grimly.To his astonishment, she looked mutinous as she tipped her chin and said, quietly,'I'
The Mafia Don's Obsession 59. Dinner with the family
ProserpinaDinner that evening was a strange affair.For one thing, Schwartz had left without a word of goodbye. Normally he would wander into the kitchen and spend some time teasing Beatrice although she pretended to get annoyed; he would then fool around with the kids, wink and joke with the maids and Sita. Ignoring him for the major part, Sita would look at him stonily but it was obvious where her heart was. This was a routine we had every alternate day of the week and I knew that the twins looked forward to it. As for me, I enjoyed the light-hearted banter of this handsome man who was a dear friend. But only that.That evening, the twins looked around for him before settling down meekly as Lucien sat, glowering at them like an angel of darkness from the head of the table, his large thick arms bunched under the jacket he still wore.. The tumbler of whiskey, positioned effectively at his elbow, gleamed rosily in the light of the chandeliers. One of his men, Ted Brister, was doubling
