‘Rest baby girl, I will send Kelly up in a little while, right now you need to sleep’He was right she curled up under the duvet and was asleep before he left the room and that’s how the next few days went, if she wanted to see Kelly she had to do as he instructed. Kelly was warned that she could only stay for an hour at a time and she understood when she saw Tash, she was exhausted even though they chatted excitedly as soon as she sat down after half an hour her eyes were closing.Strangely she did not ask to see the Twins and Romero did not suggest it, she was so fragile he wanted to wrap her in bubble wrap and keep her away from everyone and everything. The Twins were a month old before she felt strong enough to challenge him, she was feeling much better and fed up with being cooped in their room.‘I want to come downstairs today’She told him as he was about to leave and he stood in the doorway his eyes narrowed,‘I will ask the Consultant to call and check you are well enough. If
He snarled at them and the sassy Lawyer stepped forward and handed him another Court Order.‘Actually, you have no rights, Sir. Your ex-wife has filed for divorce on the grounds of your own physical and mental cruelty. She has told us how you have kept her in a locked room since the birth of your children and that you have kept her away from them. That alone is grounds to have you arrested and charged.’Romero stepped back unable to process what he had done, he knew he had gone too far and he had intended to apologize and beg her forgiveness, he wanted them to be a family. He had fucked up, here had royally fucked up, and just as the FBI turned to leave she delivered her killer blow,‘Oh and Sir the young lady was adamant we told you this, if you break any of these limitations she has put in place then she will turn state evidence and give us all the information we need to destroy your whole organization’They left his office and he sat with his head in his hands Franco said nothing b
Aleksandr pressed his rock-hard cock into her belly he had never wanted a woman like he did this one and he was going to have her. Tash broke the kiss and pulled away from him breathing heavily a soft flush betraying her arousal, their men tensed waiting for her reaction. She quickly recovered herself and her eyes were dark pools of need, no man had touched her for over a year not since she had been six months pregnant with her Twins she had not let Romero near her after their birth. Aleksandr saw the pain in her eyes and he was intrigued, someone had hurt this stunning beauty and he wanted to find out who that was.‘I think you should leave now’Tash said stepping away so he could not kiss her again, he held her gaze briefly and then said,‘I will go but this is not over, my car will pick you up at 7 pm tomorrow, and you will have dinner with me.’He instructed then nodded to his men and left the SUVs creating a cloud of dust as they sped back down the driveway.Tash’s Capos looked a
When her breathing returned to normal she pushed herself away from him and sat up he reached for her but she got out of the bed and headed for the bathroom picking up her dress as she passed it. She returned fully dressed and with not a hair out of place, ‘I have to go.’She said and before he could stop her she fled he leaped out of the bed and dragged on his clothes quickly but she was gone the front door was open and his Guards looked bemused.‘Fuck’He roared and went into his office, his number two, Sergi looked up from the paperwork he had been doing,‘Is everything alright Pakhan?’ He asked cautiously and Aleksandr snapped back,‘Do I look like everything is alright’He was furious that she had run away, the sex had been incredible and the attraction between them was intense, he had wanted to talk about what happened next. Looking through his office window at the dark star-strewn sky he growled,‘What are you running from little English beauty?’Tash stood under the shower s
Their Leader frowned as he realized she meant every word she had said,‘Metti giù la pistola, Natasha' [Put the gun down Natasha]He said again slowly,‘Uccidermi non risolverà nessuno dei tuoi problemi.’ [Killing me won’t solve any of your problems.]She stepped back and raised an eyebrow,‘Che ne sai dei miei problemi?’ [What do you know of my problems?]The Leader smirked and crossed his arms over his chest,‘So tutto di te, Lady Natasha, e so tutto della tua amica Kelly e di suo marito Luigi, un Capo che è scappato credendo di poter sfuggire alla mafia.’[I know all about you Lady Natasha, and I know all about your friend Kelly and her husband Luigi, a Capo who ran away and thought he could escape the Mafia]Tash felt herself go cold she was sick of the way all these ‘Leaders’ tried to blackmail her with her best friend's life,‘Qualunque cosa tu abbia su di loro, non mi interessa, valgono più di quanto tu e il tuo stupido Consiglio potrete mai avere. Vi ucciderò tutti e se muoio,
Aleksandr was waiting for her and he was not disappointed she looked stunning in a little black Chanel dress that emphasized her luscious body, matched with a shiny black pair of high Chanel heels she sashayed into the Reception and smiled up at him.‘You look fucking delectableHe grunted pulling her into his arms and kissing her passionately, she responded to his kiss opening herself to him and when he stepped back she could see his eyes were dark pools of lust. When he bent to kiss her again she pressed a finger to his lips,‘Oh no you don’t this time you feed me first.’She slipped out of his embrace and he groaned hungrily but acquiesced leading her into his private dining room where a beautiful laid out table for two waited. The food was incredible, his Chef had produced Michelin-star quality and she enjoyed what was put in front of her. After the first course, Aleksandr pulled her onto his lap and began feeding her titbits from the plates put in front of them. It was incredibly
He roared, it would be a long time before he gave his heart to another woman and many more would suffer because of the block of ice where his heart should have been.Tash did not allow herself to think of him she threw herself into establishing her ‘family’ in Los Angeles, she was ruthless and hard, and no one got the better of her. They soon discovered the Purple Vampyre took no prisoners, if she wanted something she took it, and if you got in her way she eliminated you. She took over a huge compound on the outskirts of the city and then spent millions restructuring it to suit her purposes, it was lavish and comfortable. All her Capos had rooms and the servants had cottages in the grounds, there were stables, an indoor and outdoor pool, a gym games room, and even a cinema. All of it was the latest high-tech specification she was becoming known for with the very latest security measures. She obsessed about keeping everyone safe, and the Capos watched as she had so many built-in gadget
Tash felt her heart swell with love,‘Of course, he can, we have not been together for almost two years’She whispered and Franco smiled at her,‘Natasha, he has never stopped loving you and hating himself for what he did to you. He never stopped believing that one day he could explain and beg your forgiveness and you would be together again.’Tash turned away hiding her tears,‘Hey’Franco reached out his hand and caught hers,‘You can’t hide it girl, we all know you love him too so for God's sake if you get out of this together stop being so stubborn. Please’He let her go and closed his eyes and then gasped painfully,‘Dear God, how could I forget, your Twins, Ricardo and Roberto, they are safe, Romero sent them to Sicily to his family over there.’She had pushed the memory of her Twins so deep she had managed to forget them for days and weeks at a time but every now and then a pain would hit her heart. She had never seen them, they would be three years old now, boys not babies an
Lifting his head he locked his eyes onto hers, ‘No, Tash, no, you are wrong, you are the most important thing in my life, you are the very air I breathe. Baby girl you are my everything. I love you with every cell in my body.’ He kissed her again more savagely pressing her to him determined to break the ice she had built around her heart and she could feel his arousal. She wanted to give in to him, her body screamed for him to ravish her right there in front of his Capos she did not care but she pushed him away, ‘How many times have you said that to me Romero and how many times have you broken my heart?’ He growled then did what her body had been craving he picked her up and slung her over his shoulder taking the stairs two at a time he demanded, ‘Your bedroom’ With a squeak of alarm, she pointed and he pushed open the door and tossed her onto the huge four-poster bed then slammed and locked her door. Leaning against it he growled again, ‘Take off your clothes’ He ordered and s
He hiked up her skirt and pushed her legs apart,‘Good girl’He said and thrust his hard cock into her, Tash cried out, she was so wet and aroused she almost came as he thrust harder slamming into her so deeply he hit her g-spot and she shattered around him squeezing him until he followed her into orgasm. He picked her up and carried her over to the bed tugging off her dress he lay her down and trailed kisses down her body. He moved over her breasts and down her belly spreading her legs he licked and sucked and nipped and bit until she was writhing beneath him.‘Please, oh God please,’She begged as he raked his teeth over her clit,‘Do you want to come little Duchess?’He teased as she arched her back and gripped his biceps,‘Yes, please yes yes’She bucked and raked her nails down his back,‘Come for me now Natasha’Her scream of pleasure could be heard by his guards and they smiled at one another, they had been under no illusions as to why the hot little Duchess had turned up at th
Slipping into the cubicle she hitched up her dress and removed her sodden panties, leaning against the door she gave herself the relief she craved coming hard against her fingers. Half an hour later she opened the door and rejoined the royal party cool and composed with not a hair out of place she made her way to the Royal Couple and made her excuses relieved when they gave her their permission to leave early. She allowed the footman to show her out to her car just as Havard came back into the room and spotted her. Getting into the chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce she told him to leave immediately and there was nothing Harvard could do as the car slid silently away into the night.‘You can run little English Rose but tomorrow I will take what is mine.’This is what Romero saw as the handsome Norwegian Prince helped the beautiful English Duchess into the royal carriage and then climbed in to sit beside her. The British crowds cheered as the carriages passed them and Romero flipped open his
They settled into a routine, the children had their private tutor and a huge castle as their playground instead of Capos they had servants and it was only a matter of weeks until their American accents were replaced by the cut glass accents of the Royal family. Lady Natasha became a recluse, she caught up with everything that was required of her regarding the castle and then just stopped. They would find her sitting in the library an open book untouched on her knee gazing outside at nothing, she never smiled and rarely spoke to anyone it was clear she was suffering. Her eyes were red-rimmed and her skin was grey, she did not eat much and she never went outside. Danilo and Reuben were worried she was fading away before their eyes and they could not understand why Romero did not come for her and their children,‘What is fucking wrong with him?’Reuben exploded as they watched Lady Natasha drift from one room to another like a little lost soul.Romero did not come for her because he had
Romero was on his feet,‘Nothing, nothing is more important than her, she knows that she knows she is my life, I love her so much.’‘Do you?’John-Joe countered,‘Then why have you ignored her for six months? Why have you kept her away from her children, again? That’s not how you treat someone you love Romero especially someone as fragile as Natasha, after all she has been through for you.’Romero, Franco, and Luca stared at the old man before he could tell them more one of the Capos came running into the office dragging the Nanny with him, Danilo and Reuben had taken the children, and she was dumped a couple of miles away.’He indicated the Nanny was crying,‘What the fuck?’Romero grabbed her and shook her,‘Tell me exactly what happened,‘She started to cry harder and Franco peeled his hands off the terrified girl,‘It’s okay, Louisa, we know it’s not your fault, please take a breath and try to explain.’She looked at the second and then at Romero,‘We were at the park, we go most
It also meant she was not seeing her children again, after all the problems she had struggled past she had built a wonderful relationship with them. She loved them and was fiercely protective spending all her free time playing with them. She taught the boys to swim and then bought ponies so she could take them out riding with her. She had worked hard to become a good Mama and in return her children adored her because she was not afraid to get down to their level and play. It seemed that Romero had ripped that all away from her again but when she returned from riding out with the ranch's cowboys she had come to a decision.‘I’m not going to let him do that to me again.’She said determinedly her emerald eyes flashing,‘If he doesn’t want me, well that’s up to him but he is not keeping my children this time. I have done nothing wrong and I am their Mother.’Marianne tried to intervene,‘Tash doesn’t do anything you might regret, you don’t know why Romero hasn’t come to the ranch, he may
He whispered to the older man,‘Let her stay with my Marianne, she’s a strong girl, she won’t be a victim, I promise she just needs a little time.’He gave her the space to recover but the nightmares did not stop they got worse and everyone's sleep was broken when her screaming started. It was exhausting for all his staff, the servants were tired before they started work and his Capos could barely concentrate, the only ones who slept through it were the children. Thankfully, all the children slept through peacefully undisturbed and carried on their days without a care playing nosily in the park he had created for them to enjoy in safety. Christmas was a subdued affair, they all put on a front for the children and the house looked like Santa’s workshop they had so many gifts but the adults were tired and their tempers frayed a little at times. It wasn’t what any of them had wanted and it was Kelly who approached him on the second of January, they were all beyond tired with huge gray
Almost leaping out of his arms she ran into Marianne and John-Joe's eager hugs,‘You stayed, you stayed’She cried happily before turning to Kelly and Luigi,‘OMG, this is going to be the best Christmas ever.’She was laughing and crying and hugging them until Romero stepped in and scooped her up again,‘That’s enough baby girl, you still need to rest. Come on, we’ll see these guys at dinner tonight.’He carried her up to their room ignoring her pleas to stay a little longer and placed her on their bed,‘Rest’He commanded and chuckled when she pouted at him,‘You are lucky you just got out of the hospital or I would put you across my knee for that.’She looked up at him through her golden lashes then bit her bottom lip teasingly,‘Oh, I don’t think you should be making promises you can’t keep Romero, hospital or no hospital.’Tash squealed in alarm as he crawled up the bed over her body his eyes locked onto hers,‘I always keep my promises.’He growled and kissed her hungrily,‘Now g
She managed softly frowning at him and he rewarded her with his gorgeous sexy smile,‘I thought I’d lost you, baby girl.’He kissed her again and she smiled up at him,‘No, you will never lose me.’She said her eyes drooping and he stroked a finger along her bottom lip,‘Rest now beautiful, I’ll be here when you wake up again.’She drifted back to sleep and he stood up turning to find Kelly and Luca crying in each other arms,‘Go home, let them all know the good news, and in the morning send Franco back with the children.’ Romero did not leave her, he was so scared of losing her again that he could not bear to let her out of his sight, she would open her eyes and smile at him.‘Hello again’He grinned at her,‘I’m not leaving you alone’He told her,‘When I leave you alone you get into far to much trouble so from now on you are staying by my side.’She reached up her hand and stroked his face,‘I love you.’She whispered resting her cheek into his palm, she could only stay
