'Thirty seconds to make you want me Blue.' His whisper repeated in my head as I walked back to my room In a daze.

If he only knew the amount of heat his presence had awakened in my body.

I could feel the dampness between my legs. My desire for him was far more than the single night I'd been drugged.

My phone suddenly buzzed on my bed, checking the text that arrived, a smile lit up my face.

I hadn't heard from my brother in a while, though he always informed me whenever he wouldn't be available, he'd always send texts to check on me from time to time.

~How is my little sunshine doing? I've missed you. I only have three months till I wrap up my volunteer service to a camp of survivors from the war and I'll be back in LA. I can't wait to see my little sister. Take good care of yourself. Love, Your Big Brother.~

I smiled at his text feeling happy and relieved to have heard from him again.

We'd lost our Dad when I was five years old, though the memories of what happened are foggy

  • The Mafia's Obsession; Love Me, Love Me Not   Chapter 10 - Taken

    ClaireNatalia distributed the cards.Vincent didn't seem to budge even as I whispered to him that I didn't know how to play poker. I had no choice but to sit down and play.Johnny stood behind me, telling me the rules of the game in a whispering voice. The first game was an epic fail for me. "One would think the owner of this casino's woman would know how to play. You can withdraw if it gets too difficult for you." Natalia remarked shuffling the cards for the next round."Don't speak too soon Miss Natalia, I've always been known to carry around unbeatable luck." I said pulling out my cards randomly, not wanting her to get the best of me.Natalia giggled shaking her head. Mockery filling her voice as she said, "Where did you find this little clown Vince? She's hilarious."Vincent didn't say a word nor interfere in the game. He silently watched me with a plain look in his eyes making me feel a burn of scrutiny from his gaze.Rocco lowered himself to whisper something in his ears and

  • The Mafia's Obsession; Love Me, Love Me Not   Chapter 11 - She's not a spy

    Vincent I had taken the wrong fucking step. Bringing that girl into my house was a big mistake.After that night at the bar, I found myself restlessly recalling images of her beautiful blue eyes and innocent face. I was wracked with the irresistible urge to have her near me. I found out everything there was to know about her and discovered that she lost her job and her ex boyfriend was planning to buy out her apartment complex to kick her out. The thought of her being homeless didn't sit well with me, so I proposed her a deal to stay with me as my girlfriend. That was far against my principles, but the Blue eyed angel had charmed me in a single night.'Love is pain Vincent, love destroys. The minute you feel something for someone, a feeling you've never ever felt before, you must run from it, because that feeling will stop at nothing until it destroys your soul.' These were words my sister once told me, the image of her eyes lost like a soul fluttering in the wind still burned in

    Vincent The fools were just too easy to find. It took thirty minutes to scan all the shady looking hideouts on the upper east side, and only one was left unchecked.When my men informed me of the location of the hideout they hadn't checked, I drove there myself and sure enough. About five men were guarding the entrance.They shot at me immediately I showed up but I'd been raised amidst bullets, evading them was as easy as a walk in the park for me. When I shot at them I never missed, sending one bullet each through fatal points that killed all five men instantly.A single kick broke down the door to the warehouse.Donatello's underling, who had infiltrated the casino had Claire pinned beneath him, half naked with blood trailing down the side of her face."Morano." The man said with a quivering voice, evidently my presence pressed fear into his heart like it did for everyone else, "How...how are you here?"He scrambled off Claire's body, crawling to the side. I'd already sighted the

    Claire"On what grounds do you think I should send her away? It has already been proven that she didn't take the heirloom." He spoke indifferently while feeding me another spoonful."She's only going to be a liability. Look at what happened today, we have never lost this much to Donatello, but immediately she showed up we're suffering painful losses.""For him to already know about her it means we really do have a spy in our midst. Someone around us has been reporting back to him about my every move. That should be your biggest concern. Find the spy and make them face my punishment.""But Vince, this girl...""Don't make me repeat myself Rocco." The way his voice darkened this time made me unconsciously shiver. His eyes flashed a dark bloodthirsty glint that made me stiffen in my spot, I couldn't even open my mouth to accept the food he was feeding me."I'll find the spy, but I still think keeping this woman here is a terrible idea." Rocco left the room after that. "Will you eat or w

    Claire He pulled me back against him the instant I moved, my legs sitting on either side of him while his hands held my thighs still. "Scared?" His voice was thick with desire as he whispered in my ear and left a small bite on my earlobe. "No." He gazed into my eyes and tugged my body closer, I felt the bulge against my core again and bit my lips to hold in the moan threatening to slip out. I felt a desperation to move and grind against the hardness poking my center, right at the spot I was aching and needing. His rough hand touched the side of my face, his thumb trailing over my lips. "Have you bewitched me Blue, I've never wanted a woman this badly." He wanted me. The thought made me relax in his hold, letting my arms circle his neck. Our breaths mingled and I ached desperately to submit myself to him, mind, body, and soul. It had taken a lot less than thirty seconds for me to want him this much. "Will you love me Mr Morano?" I asked, a softness in my voice a

    Vincent I stood on the balcony in my room, a thick cigar sitting in my hand. The smoke I blew from my lips swirling around me. 'Will you love me Mr Morano?'I let out a dark smile when I recalled the words Claire had spoken to me. How she even began to get the idea of love baffled me.The Moranos have been a family leading powerful clans of Mafias for decades, we never settled for a single woman. Love was never in my blood. But this woman who'd just entered my life seeking for love was one that had made me act in ways I hadn't done before.Her appalled eyes flashed in my memory of the moment she saw what was happening at the Friday night of lust party. She must have been caught off guard by it all, but I hadn't felt satisfaction like I thought I would.Bringing her there had been to break her spirit of ever wanting to ask me for love again, but what she had said to me after I'd brought her home still rang fresh in my mind. 'You have two days left to decide if you still want love, o

    ClaireI had failed.Vincent never said a word to me even till we drove back to the mansion.When I'd said goodnight to him as we were about to enter our rooms, he'd only replied with a hum and indifference on his handsome face.Had I said something wrong? Done something wrong?Maybe I shouldn't have touched his face the way I did, or felt sympathy for him the way I did. I'd realized that he was the way he was for a reason. A man hardened heartlessly, raised into a deadly family without a normal average childhood like other children, he was bound to become the way he was.I sighed as I laid in bed having one thought.I should have given him a hug.With the kind of life he had, I bet he was extremely lonely inside.I saw him at the dining table in the morning when I'd gone down for breakfast. He seemed to have finished eating wiping his mouth immediately he saw me."Good morning.""Morning." He replied after clearing his throat, he stood up and began to leave."About yesterday..." I

    ClaireI showed up at work Monday morning after putting the occurrence of the past few days behind me. I'd let a few kisses from a dangerous man melt my heart making me begin to fall in love with him. A pounding headache made me clutch the side of my head as I made my way to my office."Good morning Miss Santos." Gina, my new assistant greeted."Morning." "The new designs for our spring/summer collection are still not out yet, and we need to have a sample photoshoot for the front page spread of Glam magazine that will be released next week." Gina reminded kindly in a professional voice."Thank you Gina, I'll hold a meeting to discuss the final designs and have the samples made before this week ends."I was just about to begin my work when someone suddenly stormed into my office, raising my head to look, Nolan stood before me with a face full of fury."Sorry Miss Santos, Mr Sanders insisted on seeing you."

    Rocco"Hello old friend." Erik's face twisted in a wide grin, one that didn't reach his eyes."Erik." I muttered, suppressing the anger at the sight of him in Lea's apartment and pushed him aside striding inside and began looking around for Lea."Is that how to greet a friend you haven't met in years?"My brows furrowed in deep suspicion. "Where is she?" He didn't answer me, only maintained that blasted grin and folded his arms. "Where do you think she is?" He raised a brow tauntingly. I was striding over to him before I could control myself, grabbing him by the collar tightly."Don't fucking mess with me, I know what you're fucking up to and if you hurt a single hair on her head I swear...""Rocco?" Lea walked out of her bedroom staring at me with a confused look in her eyes."What's going on here?" She asked but instead of answering I hurried to her and began surveying her body for any signs of injuries, when I found none relief wafted into me. "I told you this would happen did

    Leanne I woke up on something as hard as a rock, when I shifted the rock beneath me shifted as well and arms circled my waist, a soft kiss on the top of my head. I couldn't stop a warm smile from lifting my face. "Morning." A richly deep voice sounded above me, I raised my head to meet a handsome face with dark tousled hair and super dark eyes smiling down at me."Morning." I replied and he held me tighter. "Is this the part where I make you breakfast in bed? You'd have to excuse my awful cooking skills though, I should have taken some lessons from Vince." His words made me giggle but before I could reply his phone started ringing. He fished it out of the jacket pocket thrown to the floor and began to talk to someone in Italian, I moved to get off his body but he held me still shaking his head as an indication for me not to leave so I continued to lay on his chest.When the call was over he dropped the phone aside, silently staring at me as he played with a strand of my hair.

    Leanne I'd been thinking about him a lot since I returned, it felt weird. I used to assume that coming back to my apartment would remind me of Carl, even though I'd been insisting on leaving, I dreaded actually coming back, but the moment I did, only Rocco remained on my mind.I did a lot to distract myself, like rearranging the settings of my apartment and changing things up. I'd finished cleaning up the apartment and everything looked perfect when my doorbell rang, I didn't expect to see the person who has been on my mind, and I certainly didn't expect the first thing he would do was to kiss me.I was stunned in place, shocked and enchanted by his sudden kiss. His mouth tangled with mine in a sensual dance, dominating in a ravenous way till I felt the familiar warmth of arousal trickle between my thighs. I quickly came back to my senses and pushed him away."I told you never to kiss me like that again!" I yelled heaving for breath, my blood still pounding in my ears. "Sorry." He s

    Rocco"I promised to take you home, but not this fast." I replied feeling a slight disappointment at the fact that she actually asked to go home this soon. "Please, I can't live like this anymore. I used to have my routine and everything used to work well for me, I just...I don't want to stay here anymore. Let me go." I frowned deeply remembering the very reason I'd brought her here in the first place. "Didn't you hear what I said? You're not going home yet." "Why are you so focused on keeping me here? Why do you keep doing things that make me..." "That make you what?" I challenged with a raised brow.She sighed and said, "If you keep forcing me to stay here against my will, I might just hate you even more than I already do." Her face held a deep kind of seriousness that caught me off guard. The little lake of disappointment expanded greatly inside me.She hates me!Those words created a whirlwind inside my head."You want to leave so badly? Then go! Don't even stay here for a si

It was absolutely fascinating. Every small whimper that got buried against my mouth as I kissed her, how her fingers curled against my shirt, and how hesitantly she kissed me back. I replayed all of it till I drifted off to sleep. When I went down for breakfast that morning with the hopes of seeing her, she wasn't at the breakfast table."Kennedy, get Lea down here." I instructed after taking my seat.Something told me her face would go all red the minute she sees me. My lips raised in anticipation of that, I had a few lines to tease her with when I noticed Kennedy hadn't moved from his position even after I gave my instruction."Why are you still standing there?""Lea isn't i

I'll get it off." I looked into her eyes and assured her till she nodded before I bent to have a look at her toe where the crab still held on. If moved rashly it could cause an irreparable damage so I slowly pulled it off her and flung it back into the water.She sucked in a breath in pain and I couldn't help but let out a low chuckle at the expression on her face. "Who would have thought it'd take a crab to make you look so frightened." I muttered reeling in the feeling of amusement."Tsk, why shouldn't I be scared when I thought it would cut off my toe. It hurts and you're laughing?" "Don't worry, luckily the crab didn't feel too threatened. It's only going to hurt for a while." Bending down I lifted her in my arms and carried her away.Kennedy followed behind and called awkwardly."Uhm...are

    RoccoIt's definitely true what they say, women can drive you completely nuts. If escaping is the next thing she's up to now, I would have to constantly keep an eye on her. That night I sent Kennedy to bring more blankets to her room and make sure the heater in the room is active. The rain continued deep into the night.The very next morning, I went to her room to get her for breakfast, but what I met was an empty well made bed, she wasn't in the bathroom nor anywhere in the villa at all. A stream of panic shot through my nerves."What the fuck am I going to do with this stubborn girl!" I grumbled internally and raced out of the villa. I couldn't find her or Kennedy anywhere. Even out on the beach. Just when I began to dig for my phone to make a call, her laughter drifted towards me from behind. Tilting my head to look I sighted her hair, blowing in the wind as she walked with Kennedy carrying a basket next to her. They were chatting like long lost friends, as much as I was reliev

    Leanne Soon as I took off from the island, I turned to see Rocco outside by the shore watching me go. I'd already put some distance from the island, it wouldn't be easy to catch up to me.I focused on riding the ski over the waves, one little mistake or lack of skill could send me tumbling into the water. What I didn't expect was for the sky to suddenly begin to get even more darker than it had been earlier, a sign of an incoming rain. The island was a few hours away from the city, I wasn't even close to any shores yet. Looking up at the sky where the grey clouds had hidden the sun, I prayed fervently for the weather to wait till I got to the city.I pressed on stubbornly, but minutes later, liquid began to pelt down from the sky. I persevered even as my whole body became drenched and my hair and clothes stuck close to my body, the waves became trickier and more than once, I struggled to control the jet ski forward but as the rain got heavier, the waves pushed the ski in different

    Leanne I could feel myself stumbling over as I slid down the bathroom countertop but before I could fall he was there to grab me. I didn't move to cover up my nakedness, what was the point of it all? Somehow, I'd lost the ability to feel anything at all. Rocco brought some clothes, without a word wearing them over my head assisting me like a child who couldn't take care of themselves, he moved me back into the bedroom afterwards and I curled on the bed wishing it would open up and swallow me whole so I wouldn't have to exist anymore. "You still have a fever." I heard Rocco mutter before he stood up and left the room.He'd never been the gentle type of guy, nor had I ever pictured him that way. He was harsh and rough around the edges, uncaring for anything or anyone.'... you're not a little girl anymore. I'll fuck you if that's what you want.'The day he'd said those words to me, that day I'd concluded, he was a beast. He'd looked at me like something disgusting, something he des
