The goons seized Leonardo, dragging him along without resistance. Deep inside, he felt a grim acceptance of his fate – the meeting he had been avoiding for months was finally upon him. They blindfolded Leonardo and tightened the handcuffs, ensuring he couldn't escape.

“Boss, we got him here,” one of the henchmen reported to their leader. The blindfold was yanked off, and Leonardo squinted, trying to adjust his eyes to the dimly lit, dank room.

“Leonardo Morelli!” a gravelly voice growled, and he turned his head to see his captor. Leonardo was momentarily bewildered; he had never laid eyes on this man before. But it didn't take long to put the pieces together.

"You may not know me, but I know you well, Don Morelli. I am Enzo, Don Adrik was my brother, and you killed him ruthlessly, shattering the Russian Mafia along with him." Enzo spat the words out with venomous hatred.

He left her nipples and looked up into her eyes."I want to taste you, love," he announced and dragged himself down until he was between her legs. He grabbed her thighs slightly harder and parted them wider."I want you to look at me, love, when I pleasure you with my tongue," he commanded and dipped his head into her pussy.He brushed his tongue on her clit before catching it between his lips and sucking hard. Her hip jerked upwards as the sensation he was causing was too much for her to compose herself. He chuckled before holding her hips, pinning her to the bed. He trailed his tongue along the length of her pussy, licking her wetness. He dipped his thick damp tongue into her hole and began pumping in and out."Oh! God! Leonardo… yo

I have a day off," he said, inhaling in the crook of her neck."Really? And what is the occasion?" she asked, gently massaging his scalp."We have to attend a party in the evening," he said casually."What kind of a party?" she as

Sometimes, she doubted if Kat was truly her daughter, given her lack of patience. "Shut up, Kat. I am also not happy with that news. I am already angry. Don't put oil in it.

At this hour?" he inquired, his voice still heavy with drowsiness."Do I look like I'm kidding?" she retorted, narrowing her eyes playfully."No! You're serious," he whispered, removing his arms from around her and sitting up on the bed. He rubbed his eyes and stretched his arms upward, letting out a big yawn.
