The Mafia's Crazy Obsession 39
SolanaAbel moved to stand behind me and knelt between my legs, his powerful hands cupping my ass, gripping and spreading me wide. I swallowed, nervous with anticipation.“Eyes on me,” he rasped.I turned my gaze to him and watched, turned on, nervous, excited, embarrassed, wanting. I hated my body for wanting this. Something trickled down my inner thigh. My arousal, I knew.Fuck.His eyes lit up mischievously. I suppressed a groan. “You're dripping hard for me, Lana.” I hated the sexy way he said my name. So delicately like he had peppermint candy in his mouth and he was trying his best not to sink his teeth into it.He leaned his head down. His tongue must've caught the drop. He slid his hot tongue up all along my thigh until he reached my core. My ass cracks.I made some non-committal sound, quickly burying my head in the mattress, squeezing the sheets above my head as he buried his face into my pussy.“I love having you like this, Lana. Ass in the air, face down, all spread out fo

AbelGrowing up, while Mom was still alive and helped to keep a tight leash around Father's neck, I'd loved nothing more than coming back home to the family home at Nordstrom. Back home to her sweet-smelling buns, and ginger tea. Back home to Father laughing, and Andrew behaving himself. But now, that felt like ages ago — the memories so faint, I couldn't even remember when last Father laughed, or if Mom's hair was blonde, or a pale ginger. Now, as we neared the property, Solana sat beside me in the car quietly, her trembling fingers the only thing that announced her tension. She looked stunning in the red, short dress I'd specifically chosen for her, her dark curls shiny, framing her beautiful face — a light make-up accentuating the almond shape of her emerald-green-colored eyes.I took my left hand off the steering wheel and touched her knee as we pulled up in front of the security gate.She stilled, startled, turning her eyes to me.I tried to manage a small smile but failed. “Quit

Abel“Well, who do we have here, huh?” Norman Stravkos started, his mood falsely cheery, glancing at his watch. “It's nice of you to finally grace us with your presence, Abel. Thought we weren't worthy enough.”“I'm sorry, Father. We left the house late and got stuck in traffic for a few hours,” I lied, loathing my instant shift in behavior whenever I was around him. I didn't feel like a grown man, but a kid again. And not just any kid — that eager-to-please child who wouldn't stop trying even though it was crystal clear that he could never do enough. That his efforts could never be appreciated enough. That he could never be enough. He didn't comment on my lie, whether he believed it all not, but turned his eyes to Solana, his eyes glistening at her dress.“You look dashing, dearest Lana. Great to see you in anything other than that dreadful black veil and dress you had on at the funeral,” he said, chuckling.My heart sank as she bunches her hands into fists beside her. I squeezed her

AbelThe stewards filed into the dinning room in a single file, all impeccably dressed in smart-fitting uniforms, and began to pour wine as the conversation flowed. I was distracted, observing the leacherous eyes of my Father and brother Andrew consume her. She stayed put between them, eyes down on her plate, her face tense as she shrunk even more in fright, looking smaller and smaller as the moments tickled past. I'd come to know of those little things she did when she was nervous — the intricate way she wrapped her arms around herself, her eyes wide and fully concentrated on the most trivial thing. She may not be aware of herself. She may not be aware of those little details, but I noticed them. I knew she wanted to hide away. Knew she wanted the ground to open up and swallow her whole. At least to save her from this intense scrutiny.I felt my control over the situation slip away more and more as course after course was served. I forced myself to eat a few bites from each plate, tr
The Mafia's Crazy Obsession 43
AbelIt took nearly forty strokes, her voice becoming cracked, her screams turning hoarse as she cried, lashing my heart as I lashed her flesh, loathing myself, hating her for pushing me to do this. Hating my brother Andrew, hating my father for his cruelty, for his control over me. For the control I allowed him to have. The control I should have taken a long time ago.I only stopped when the silence on the other side of the door grew into a soft murmur, and the sound of silverware stroking dishes announced that dessert was being served. The devils were being entertained, and would soon grow bored after they'd been sated. My head and arm ached. I hated them all, but hated myself most of all. I hated how much of a coward I was.When I lifted my hand eventually from her back, she stayed put as she was, bent over, her dress hiked up to her waist, her ass bare, all the fighting spirit before now gone. I sighed, adjusting the crotch of my pants before sliding the belt through the loops and

SolanaI stared at the window, my forehead throbbing. The sun made it way up into the sky over an hour ago, but I still lay down. Unmoving. Unwilling to get up and start the day. Sunlight flickered in through the slants between the beige curtains. I should've been confused. I should've been terrified momentarily, and wondered where exactly I was, but I wasn't. The soreness between my legs, on my ass and my forehead was more than enough for me to remember. I could still feel Abel's touch on my skin, even though, currently, his presence eluded the room entirely.I winced as I turned my head to glance at the clock hanging on the wall opposite. It read 8:05 a.m.Groaning, I dragged the cotton sheet up over my naked, hurting body as I sat up. Pain rushed up my butt and waist, making me flinch. I plopped back down immediately. Beside me, the empty pillow lay sideways, the other half suspended in air. My fingers shot out to grasp it, and I leaned over to bury my nose in it. Take in as much

Solana“Good morning,” Abel said softly after I'd disconnected the call and slipped the phone into my purse. A weighty silence enveloped us, threatened to collide our bodies together. It was a healthy silence though. “How was your night?”“It was...” I trailed off, trying to think up the right words, “... awkward? I don't know. I thought you'd already left.”“What? No. I'd never do that to you.” The silence pressed on. “Come here.”I moved closer, the scent of coffee wafting off him feeling like home.“You okay, sunflower?”I shrugged a shoulder, lost for words, and dropped my gaze on the floor to shield my eyes. I could no longer trust the feelings swirling inside me, just beneath the surface whenever he was around. Why did his asking make me feel so fucking needy? Why did him taking me into his arms made me want to cling on to him like a leech and bawl my eyes out? Because that's what it did. That's what having his arms around me right now, like he would protect and keep my safe fro

Solana“Alright. Fine, Abel. She's your property. Your whore. But remember that I gave her to you. And I can easily take her back if I please. I warned you not to involve business with pleasure, but you keep showing me how recklessly you'll handle the Stravkos name when I'm gone. Take care of Wyatt Williams before there are any more substantial supporters. Two fucking weeks, or I'll pass up the task to Andrew. I'm done playing hide-and-seek.”I slapped a hand over my mouth in shock. What? What did he mean, take care of Wyatt? What did Wyatt do?But most importantly, how was Abel going to take care of my cousin?I wanted to hear more. To press my ear more firmly against the door and hear Abel's response, but the sound of footsteps, heavy and moving fast chilled my feet and made it impossible for me to move. Sweat trickled down my temples, raced down my back as I struggled to unglue my feet from the tiled floor. At last they came off, and I charged toward the stairs. I bolted up, gown f

The Mafia's Crazy Obsession Epilogue
AbelWe didn't speak for the rest of the drive. There were so many things to say, so many demons to confront, and they hovered right above up, making the air thick with a dense foreboding. Once we reached the mansion, I climbed out of the car, and straightened my shirt, clutching the envelope containing the new contract. It was not necessary getting Father to sign it — his signature mattered less — but for closure to be properly achieved, I had to do it this way.“Ready, sweetheart?”Before I could nod and respond, Lana wound her arm through mine. Since I got shot, we'd gotten much closer to each other. We enjoyed each other's company, craved each other's opinions and bodies, and when she did stuff like this, touching me like this, it made me feel lucky, special. It made my heartbeat quicken, my heart filling with a joy I'd never thought possible.I pulled her back. “You don't have to go in with me. I won't waste any time. Once he signs it, I'm getting right out of there.” I watched h

AbelFulfilling my promise to Lana had got to be the most liberating thing I'd ever done.It took away the guilt I'd felt on that day I saw her for the first time; star-strucked by those bright-eyes that dimmed when her father announced the purpose of our visit with tears in his eyes. It took away the feeling of possessiveness — the need to control her. It took away a lot of things I wasn't proud about, and left me with a warm glow in my chest. What it didn't take away, however, was my ever-increasing love for her.Andre came over to the house the following morning, and handed me the initial contract she and I had signed. I couldn't look at it — I set it aside, and had him draw up a new one. This one wrote off any debt the Williams family owed any Stravkos, real or perceived, and the two families were no longer bound in any way. In any form. I also directed him, to make that part possible to be overturned in the future at any time.I signed it immediately and had a copy sent to Helen

SolanaAbel moved into the guest room downstairs while he recovered. The doctor was against him stressing himself, and climbing stairs would be fatal to his health since he was still very much fragile. I moved into the room with him and slept beside him, taking extreme care not to touch the still tender spot the bullet had ripped into. I knew he still felt pain, but insisted on less and less medication, saying he could wing it. After a day of being home, he could walk to the bathroom and house entrance on his own, although it wore him out.“This is sickening,” he complained a week later after one of his visits to the bathroom. I looked up at him from where I was sitting on the bed. “I hate being weak. That's not the Stravkos way.”He lay back down and I helped him tuck the blanket up to his waist. “Stop whining. You're getting stronger everyday. I can feel it.”“Well I can't feel anything but my weak bones and side. I'm not healing fast enough.”“You are, but you won't notice because

AbelLana walked them out then returned to me shortly. “Frank is mischievous.”“Yes, he is. He's Andrew's son through and through. Which is why I'm staying away from that pea soup. I don't trust that kid.”The room returned to it's revered solitude as our smiles faded. Her eyes glazed over, and I could have felt like I imagined the tears if she hadn't subtly raised a finger to dab them off.“I thought I had lost you too. I couldn't feel your pulse. I couldn't feel you breathe, and you were so still. So calm. The blood was all over...oh God...” she trailed off, her voice breaking, eyes filled with tears.I was so close to crying too. Reaching up to touch her face, although my arm felt sore even with that small, gentle movement, I whispered with a nervous chuckle. “Takes more than one gunshot to kill me off. A Stravkos never dies that easily.”She sniffled, a hint of a smile on her lips. “You have no idea how grateful I am to death for not taking you. You've become my whole world, Abel.

AbelI was dreaming.It was one of those dreams where nothing basically happens. One of those dreams you feel your legs can't touch the ground. You feel as though you're drifting in space, not recalling anything. Not seeing, nor feeling anything but fire in your side.And then you hear voices. They sound so far away, bold, spoken words that sound like the faintest whispers. And then you're falling from space. And then you catch glimpses of the incidents that led to you having that terrible burn in your side.And then you make out one of the voices talking to belong to the only woman you had ever loved.The monitors bleeped like an endless, buzzing swarm of bees. I heard the doctor asking Lana to go home and get some rest, but she was adamant. I heard her refer to me as stubborn, and it made me smile all the time. Whenever I managed to drift back to consciousness, she was there, sitting by my side and holding my hand. Sometimes she cried, and I knew it wasn't tears of sadness. At first

SolanaWhen we arrived at the hospital, he was taken straight to the emergency unit. Andre screamed orders that they should commence surgery immediately. It was the same ward Wyatt had been into.Life truly does come full circle, doesn't it?Only this time, the doctors wouldn't even look at us. Hospital policy instructed that they only provided information about a patient to his immediate family. Helen and I weren't.“Fucking distasteful! I just want to know if he's going to live! Don't you understand?”“Ma'am,” the doctor said, exhaling calmly. “Please calm down. This is not my doing. It's just how things work over here.”“Lana,” a deep voice called behind us. I turned to see Andre striding into the waiting room, his face cleaned of blood, although his shirt was still coated in deep crimson. He placed a hand on my shoulder and squeezed gently. I relaxed.“They've begun operating. There's no news if he'll make it or not for the moment.” He turned to the doctor. “Please add Lana Willia

Solana“Abel, no!”I surged forward, almost knocking Helen to the floor and sank down on my knees beside his limp body. Tears welled up as I held his face with one hand and pressed my other hand to his side that was gushing out so much blood, I felt it'd never stop. Without thinking, I slammed my lips against him. I kissed him madly. Uncontrollably, again and again. When I tried to push his hair back from his forehead, I left blood in it's place. His blood. There was so much of it, more than I'd ever seen in my entire life. Too much.“Please don't die. Stay with me, please. Please, Abel.”It was then I realized I didn't make him promise to live. I thought he was invincible. That he could never die. That he'd always be alive, and would always be by my side. He'd made me three promises — selfish promises — and he'd never promised me that he wouldn't die.I'd never asked him to promise that. God, all these while... I didn't think he could ever be defeated. I thought Death held no candle

Abel“Andrew, give me the gun,” I said, shadowing him as he moved around the table, advancing to where Father stood, but it was like I was talking to a rock. He couldn't hear or see me. Couldn't hear or see anything but Father.“You're such a tyrant. Everything always has to go your way, and now that I'm older, I realize how stupid I've been, letting you dictate my life. I was too much of a wimp to let you know that we loved each other and she was carrying my baby. Mine, you dirty old man.”“Andrew,” I said, more firmly this time. “Hand me the damn gun. Now. Don't do something you'll regret later.”Father was unperturbed by the pistol, dragging his eyes from him to Helen for a few minutes. I couldn't practically imagine the wheels in his mind turning into place as he finally understood. But Andrew wasn't through with his ranting.“You've never loved me. Never cared. It's always about Abel. Always about Andre!”“That's not true, and you know it,” Father exhaled, too calm for a man who

Abel“Last chance to tell me everything, little bro. It's for your own good.”“It's going to be a peaceful meeting, right? You have nothing to worry about. Go get everyone under control, now. I'll see you when it's time for the meeting.”“Suit yourself.”I strode out of the room, taking no detours to see how my Father and Andre were doing, and heading straight for Lana's room.She and Helen sat side by side on the bed conversing in low tones when I walked in. Feeling guilty, Lana shot me a nervous smile, getting up at once.I looked past her at Helen. “The meeting is downstairs, not here,” I said, then turned to Lana. “You disobeyed me.”“I had to talk to her first, Abel. She's my sister.”“Why do you always miss the point every fucking time? It's driving me to my limits,” I said.“I know this might come as a shock to you, sis, but for once I'd say listen to him. He's right. This whole thing concerns me and me alone. We've already lost so much people. I don't want you getting involved
