Schwartz’s words made me feel alarmed. 'I wanted to talk to you.' When he said it so seriously, I looked at him, my lips parted in uncertainty. "Hey, chill!' he said, but his expression was sober. Now I was intrigued. Shooing the kids over to Beatrice, I indicated the wide kitchen windows where I could sit on a chair and no one would be within earshot.

After I was comfortably settled, he perched on the counter, gazing at his hands for a long time. I leaned my head back, folding my hands over my stomach. I was prepared to wait. Taking a deep breath, he went into his recital bluntly. 'You do know that Delano is ... that he cares for you, right?' he began unceremoniously.

I scowled at him, my plump mouth thinning. As I made to stand up and move away, he gripped my wrist. Staring at him, I looked down at the hard grip on my wrist. Schwartz had always been gentle, caring, and never the one to use brute force so I was startled.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Sita Kumar tense. She uno

  • The Mafia Don's Obsession   Together again

    ProserpinaThey say the morning after you spend your first night with your lover is a magical one. For me, it took three children and a whole lot of heartache to experience that feeling!!! It was obvious that Lucien did not want to leave to attend to his business that day. He had come back to my room after breakfast and we had spent the time in each other’s arms. There were so many things to say which lay unsaid between us. But healing would take time although I knew that the process had begun.I gave myself up to his lovemaking which was tempered with gentleness as he caressed my rounded belly and made me cry with the exquisite feelings of joy…***I had cooked up a storm that afternoon when Lucien turned up with Schwartz and Shark in tow. Lucien followed me to the bedroom, his hands roving over my body as we kissed hungrily. Ria and Piers seemed rather annoyed at lunch and I was genuinely puzzled.They had seemed fine as they went about their riotous games in the morning. Besides, t

  • The Mafia Don's Obsession   Going to the Party

    ProserpinaWhen Grace brought me the lovely long dress that Danielle had got for me on Lucien's instructions, I sat staring at it in disbelief. Even after all these years, I was still awed when I saw a beautiful gown and this time was the same.Lucien's words had been clipped over the phone when he spoke to me. Schwartz's party was to be held at the club, not the log cabin near the lake he said and it was slated to begin a few days earlier. This evening, he said and slammed the phone before I could ask for details. I stared stupidly at my cell phone: Lucien had sounded irritated but I knew instinctively that it was something that was weighing on his mind, something that he could not handle which was getting to him. But when Grace laid the lovely gown before me, I was wonderstruck.Deep purple, it had a plunging V- V-neckline with a deep back that almost reached my waist. Clinging to my full breasts alluringly, it flared out in folds below the bodice and effectively hid my rounded bell

    As for Lucien, he did not say a word but the hand that fastened itself around my upper arm, presumably to help me, was like a harsh vice, tight and painful. I dabbed at my mouth furtively but I felt his cold eyes follow my gesture.'What was that?' he snarled, his voice low and vibrating with a slow-burning rage. I turned to look up at him fearfully, wide-eyed. I had fashioned my long hair in a chignon, to make myself look older and more mature but at that moment, I felt like a guilty schoolgirl caught by the harshest teacher ever, preparing for the inevitable punishment.'I...I wanted to thank him...' I whispered, aware that the bodyguards were with us, a few feet away. And aware that they could hear us."Thank him?', Sneered Lucien, his hand tightening even more, 'What has he done for you, eh?' I felt a coldness inside me.How Lucien regarded me in suspicion troubled me. When would he realise that for me, there was no other man in my life but him? Not wanting to create a scene in pu

    ProserpinaThe familiar perfume that Daniella wore wafted up and I turned in surprise and happiness. She stood a little away, puffing away on a cigar, glaring at someone in the distance, and behind her, I could see Grace approaching. While Grace was wearing an open expression of joy at seeing me, Daniella seemed to be on her tough woman behavior this evening. But I knew it was an act. I loved to spend time with the two of them and I knew that Danielle looked out for me. She was as fiercely protective in her way but she hid it behind a Devil may care attitude.Daniella came and stood beside me, wearing a crisp blue pantsuit, her ice-blonde hair in place in a close bob that framed her scalp. She looked tough and business-like, despite the red slash that was her mouth. She looked at me and her lips twisted sympathetically, ' Being pregnant is a bitch, right?'I grinned up at her easily. We had a close relationship now, the prickly, tough-as-nails Dani and I. Suddenly, I felt better, not

    "Darlin' why did you choose that gown for the poor child?' Grace half scolded Daniella who was puffing away on a cigar again. 'She looks like she hates it!' Danielle shot a look at Lucien and said nothing. "Grace,’ I whispered softly, shifting uncomfortably in the soft armchair, ' I wanted to use the washroom...could you come with me?' Danielle frowned and looked at Lucien. "Boss, hey Boss!' she said raising her voice a little. When Lucien turned his cold look on her, she snapped, 'Proserpina here wants to pee.'Lucien's eyes bored into me, searching. I lowered my head like a truant kid but he stepped closer and asked, his rasping voice tinged with concern, as his eyes skimmed over me. “ Do you want to leave now, woman?’The hard features had softened and I felt a warm feeling spread over me. But I was exhausted and in no mood to be placated. My back hurt, my feet were killing me and all I wanted was to get back home and curl into bed and sleep. With my lover's big body shielding me.

    LucienHe swore as the minutes ticked by and his wife did not appear. As his anxiety grew, Lucien tossed his head back and gulped down another drink. He wanted to be back in the confines of his home in the suburbs, with the woman he cared for in his arms. Raking his hands through his vibrant grey hair, he thought again about how important she had become to him.‘Damn,’, he thought, scowling, he was totally smitten by her. The way her brown eyes lit up when they saw him, the way she still blushed when he fu*ked her and said things to her that made her cry out in protest…The way her pus*y tightened around his shaft when he was hammering into her, her muscles squeezing him… But it was more than that, he acknowledged, he wanted to keep her happy, to see her smile. He could not imagine a life without her.*His shoulders tightened. Yes, he had behaved like a boor, forgetting the fact that she had needed to sit down, and had not had a fruit drink, the only damn thing she drank, anyway, he r

    Proserpina I was aware of the commotion in the hall as we approached, the way the guards seemed to be on alert, hurrying us along. But the spectacle unfolding before us brought me up short. It made me stop breathing for a few minutes. Lucien was beating up a guest, brutally, viciously. I had never seen this side of my husband although I was aware of his violent nature.Now I watched, open-mouthed, one hand protectively laid on my stomach, the other on Grace’s arm for support. He was thrashing the man, mercilessly. As the man tried to get onto his knees, I saw his suit: Ramos? Lucien kicked him in the ribs and hit him, uncaring that he had the guests watching in undisguised glee, like vultures. I felt sick. Schwartz rushed forward, murmuring something about the Boss and his aggressiveness and making a scene for no reason like an uncivilized thug.But I could not pull my eyes away from Lucien. He looked massive and frightening and I began to tremble. He kicked the man at his feet last

  • The Mafia Don's Obsession   The Reaction

    Proserpina My action must have been totally unexpected. There was a moment's silence, and then with a roar, he reacted. Even before the stinging sensation in my palm had died down, he had jerked me to him, his mouth plundering mine, his tongue forcing itself into my mouth. He bit my lower lip and as I cried out, he plundered my mouth cruelly. All the while, his hands roughly pulled at the neck of my gown, his hands squeezing my soft breasts coarsely, painfully as his lower body pressed against me, the strong thick thighs making me aware of how hard he was. I could feel the urgency of his hard shaft, tenting his immaculate trousers and I sobbed, struggling, trying to turn my head away. He raised his head, breathing heavily, eyes dark with desire and a softness I had not seen before. I pushed at his chest and managed to place a few inches between us as I whispered, "I did not choose to wear this gown. You got Daniela to buy it. Why are you punishing ME? " And taking a deep breath

    Piers's loud shout made the hall fall silent. For a minute, every head in the room swivelled to stomp in the doorway.Even Lucien Delano and Proserpina, absorbed as they were in their burning need to lose themselves in their desperate need for each other, stopped. Proserpina blinked as she turned to look, safe as she was, nestled in her lover’s strong embrace. And the Mafia Don scowled in annoyance, muttering,“What is with that fool boy?’Piers whipped his head to face his parents across the room, an arm around Hila, holding her to his chest as he cried, "Mumma! Pappa!’And when he was hurrying to them, his eyes were wild with excitement as he cried in joy, dragging his lover beside him,‘I…you… I mean… Mumma, I’m going to be a dad!”Proserpina was out of her husband’s protective arms as her son whooped and threw his arms around her, laughing with him. Lucien watched drily as Claude and Ria immediately crossed to him, pulling him into a huddle. Tara joined them, and after a pause, so

    LucienHe began to make his way slowly through the milling throng of his guests to where his Woman was standing, in a daringly backless gown, her beautiful body making his staff harden with desire. Ria and Tara had chosen the slinky gown for her. When Proserpina had protested in embarrassment, her hands on her pink cheeks, the girls had declared,‘Mumma! Even after eight kids, you still look WOW!’It had been one of those rare weekends when Tara had come home. Ria had little Jamie on her lap, jiggling the fat little girl who was cooing at her Pappa, for the Mafia Don was hands down, her favourite person. Jamie was the apple of the Don’s eye, as Ria often teased her father.Lucien, who had been in the bedroom working on his phones and tablet, had been watching them in amusement.After the heart attack, mild though it had been, he had taken to spending time at home, working from his office or sometimes, his spacious bedroom.‘Please…but it’s BACKLESS!” Proserpina had gone on, her eyes m

    A love like the kind her parents shared was almost like a fairytale…She sighed and touched her small belly. Big Philippe placed his large warm hand over hers and whispered concernedly in her ear,“Princess?”She looked up into his dark eyes and felt the rush of affection, of love that kept them bound to each other. Philippe, the Capo would bring the Moon and place it at her feet if she asked for it, she thought and unmindful of the crowds milling around her, the sound of glasses clinking, the chatter of people as, Ria reached up and pulled his head down. Murmuring against his lips,‘Philippe Diaz, I love you,” as she kissed him.***Piers Delano was staring at his phone. His mind was on other matters, although he had turned up for the party after his twin’s wedding ceremony. It had been a brief ceremony; Philippe had been born a Catholic, so there had been a small wedding service at Church. Old man Diaz had passed away a few years ago, and Philippe’s brothers, both of whom had been a

    LucienHe looked at his Woman fondly. She was on the bed, her head lowered to the baby at her nipple, the little child whose brown curls were bobbing as she sucked hard at her mother’s swollen teat.Proserpina wore a look of divine bliss, and Lucien moved over to her, taking her chin in his hard grip and kissing her.It was all he could do, for she had been spending almost a month at the hospital now. A month during which the Mafia Don had practically lived in the hospital too, his only concern being his Woman.And of course, the littlest child of his, who had charmed him already, though she was too small, too tiny to utter a word. Yet she could be ear-splittingly loud, too!He found himself staring in wonder as the baby yawned, exposing her small toothless gums, pink in colour, as he watched her face adoringly. And when Proserpina laughed at him, at the way he fawned over his youngest daughter, the Mafia Don growled at her, his eyes hungrily wandering over her.“Woman, I want to bree

    RiaShe was running down a corridor that stretched out endlessly. The sound of the man’s footsteps thundering after her made her pant in fear. He was after her. She stumbled and fell, picked herself up, and kept running, her hands reaching out in the dark for some door, some way out of this place. And then, suddenly, out of the blue, she grabbed a shirt sleeve.The face of the man looked up in front of her.She screamed as Dusak’s face appeared out of the gloom, grinning maniacally.He had blood pouring down his forehead and a large hole in his cheek where he had been shot. But he opened his mouth and spoke in a guttural voice she knew she had heard before.“LOVELY Ria, my Ria, I am going to be with you forever now...'He reached out a long skeletal hand with talons, and that was when Ria screamed.Dusak Rudenko began shaking her throat ungently, and she felt a gurgle of panic erupt within her.

    Lucien stood, staring in shock as a beaming Camille reached out to hand over the little baby to him. He stared in confusion for he had never held any of his newborn kids; it was a first for him.But even as he hesitated, the little child, its skin pink and puckered, a thatch of dark hair on its tiny head, opened one eye and looked at him quizzically an eyebrow raised questioningly, weighing him up critically so to speak, before shutting her eye firmly and ignoring the people around her, her mouth blowing a red raspberry pout.Ria and the other children began to laugh as Lou cried, with a shout of laughter,“Pappa, Sir, she is not impressed by you!’But it was Ria who declared, wonderingly, as she leaned against Lucien, who was holding the precious bundle cupped to his chest fiercely,“Pappa, I think she has Mumma’s colouring!”***ProserpinaI opened my eyes slowly. It felt as though there were weights holding my lids down. It had been a dream that seemed to go on forever, tumultuous

  • The Mafia Don's Obsession   “Here is your newest daughter.’

    Lucien looked around at his family who were in the large waiting room. The younger boys, Dom and Lou, were piled on a sofa, their mouths open as they snored softly; Tara was curled up in an armchair with Aiyana beside her, an arm draped protectively around the child. The ex-FBI woman sat, her legs folded elegantly even in sleep.James Schwartz was sitting in another chair while the Capo dozed uncomfortably, Ria’s golden head on his lap, Rudy nestled beside her. Lucien’s face softened slightly as he looked at James. As though his thoughts had touched his second in command, the Scotsman stirred and stretched, sitting up, alert in an instant.He looked around himself and met Lucien’s eyes, an unspoken look passing between them.Snoring loudly, Claude was sprawled in abandon, sleeping on a mattress someone had thoughtfully provided, which was spread on the floor, his arms thrown wide, while Paddy had chosen to settle in an armchair close to the corridor leading to the theatre door, positi

    She mumbled,"Yes Sir...' and her molten brown eyes, clouded with desire and want, with pain and pleasure, misted over as she looked at him, beseeching him to release her from her need.Her absolute submission aroused him tenfold, and the big man growled shakily, for the sight of her large breasts with the evil clamps fastened to her tender nipples was too much for him.“I shall f*ck your t*ts today, wh*re,’ he said hoarsely, "to punish you. Pain, wh*re, and pleasure."She made a sound, her breasts wobbling as she tried not to shift too much, but he lowered his head to sink his teeth into the fleshy mounds savagely, and she cried out.He tugged lightly at the clamps with his teeth, and she met his eyes, her own filled with tears of pain but she dimpled slightly as she said breathlessly,'Master... I am yours, Lucien Delano..."He grunted.F*ck, but he could never have enough of this delectable offering laid before him: this lush body, the thighs wet with her want, her shining pink c*n
