SUMMERThe pain was encompassing bigger than anything I had ever felt. I want to die. Kill that vile piece of shit and commit patricide. I didn’t know how to survive with this knowledge. It was eating me from the insides like a poison injected in my veins “No!” I screamed, giving my pain an outlet as I threw the lamp against the wall of my bedroom. I hated myself so much in that moment, I wanted to grab a piece of that glass and end my existence.How did I not know?How could I not know?My sister. My little sister that I loved with everything in me and yet I was unable to protect her. I didn’t protect her when she needed it the most. Antonio was right. It hurt. Hurt more than the time when I suffered the miscarriage which had sent me into depression coupled with Erica’s kidnapping. But the miscarriage was a possibility, I had known it could happen and I was kind of prepared for it but I wasn’t prepared for this heart gutting pain that almost incapacitated me. I didn’t know what to
ANTONIO“I know nothing can bring back your sister and give you the justice you want, and I am really sorry for that.” Gabriel’s blue eyes showed the sincerity of his words as he apologized for the eighth time now. He cleared his throat and added, “As for Mac, we have decided that he would be accompanying you to Italy. He’ll be your shadow just like he has been mine and he’ll protect you for the next three years, if you’ll accept it.”I looked at the mammoth of a man, he even has a few inches on me and for the moment all I could think about was not the fact that he shot at my sister to protect his boss/bestfriend but that he drûgged my little devil. He was an accomplice when they took her from me.When I didn't say anything, Gabriel said, “I would prefer to not have any animosity between us for the sake of our wives, and move on from here and now. Erica is my little sister, I don’t want to hurt her more than I’ve already done in my ignorance and I'm sure both the sisters would prefer
ERICA“You look so beautiful!” Ami gushed as she put the hair straightener down and took a step back, looking at my reflection in the mirror.I smiled at her, then met my sister’s eyes which were filled with unshed tears as she looked at me. “I am realising now, that this is you happy. Not what you were with us.”My heart clenched at her words, for the truth in them. Because yes, with my family I was pretending to be happy but now I was actually happy with Antonio in my life. “He makes me happy.”She took a shaky breath as she said, “I feel like I’m sending you off after you get married.”Ami said, “That’s what you are actually doing, minus the wedding part.”Summer shook her head. “No. I am going to tell him to give my little sister a proper wedding, you don’t deserve anything less. And I won't stop pestering him until he does that.”I laughed. “I already told me that and he said I can have however big a wedding I want.” I replied, repeating Antonio’s words. I said, “And I don’t want
ERICA“I want to have a moment with my wife,” I heard him say, his thick voice vibrating through me, sending shivers down my body with the way he stared at me.I was barely aware of Kat giving me a dirty wink and mouthing, ‘Wow’ before she left with everyone else. All of them pretending like they couldn't read it in his face for what reason he wanted a moment alone with me, like there wasn’t altogether another meaning to his words— a dirty one, as they left us alone. I watched as Antonio entered, took a step inside and then whirled around to close the door in my family’s face before turning to me once again.He prowled toward me. The dark god of hell and fire. My dark Thor, his energy was barely contained as he made his way toward me. I couldn’t wait, pulled by him, I walked to him too. Meeting him midway. I didn't know who moved first, if it was him or me, but I circled my arms around him and he grabbed a fistful of my hair as our lips crashed against each other. God, even between th
ERICA“Scopami, marito.” Fuck me, husband.It seemed that those two words shredded the last threads of his self control and sanity, he gave me a dark smile that I had seen only a few times on his face. One of them was when he had used the belt to punish me after that masked party where I had put myself in danger and another was when he had lost his control and taken my virginity in that dark dungeon while I was suspended from the ceiling. Not to forget the last time when he had unleashed his beast on me in the castle before everything went to shit. It felt too long ago and yet the memories were still fresh like it had happened just yesterday, the thought of those particular memories made my core pulse with arousal. Antonio gripped the waistband of my panties and tore them with a single flick of his wrist, and then promptly stuffed that scrap of red fabric in his pocket. I moaned when he made a V with his index and middle finger and parted
ANTONIOErica screamed as her pussy gripped my cock in another heated release. She thrashed beneath me, her nails scoring the side of neck as she moaned my name. I pulled her up and kissed her hard on the mouth before turning her around and pushing her down on the instrument. I wasn’t done yet, far from it. Grabbing her wrists at the small of her back with one hand, I gripped her mouth with other, silencing her loud moans. “Hush. I am not done yet, I need more.”She shook her head, her beautiful eyes glazed up as she murmured against my palm, “I c-can’t. It’s too much.”I knew it from the beginning that I was going to lose it but the moment I laid eyes on her father, that scumbag, I had forgotten everything but the need to have his blood staining the floor and my hands. And I made it happen. I had wanted to kill him but I only refrained because he didn’t deserve that simple a death. He needed to be tortured to the last second of his miserable life and then only I’ll let him leave this
ANTONIOSurprisingly the dinner was an easy and simple affair after the few minutes of initial silence. Ami was a great host, the title of duchess suited her and unlike his brother Raphael was easy to talk to too. It was Katlyn, Kat as she was called by everyone, who used her dry humor to make everyone laugh and after some time even Summer relaxed. Gabriel regaled us with the tales of his son and Raphael joined as he told us how much he loved everything his twin daughters do. They seemed to be proud fathers and I couldn’t wait to be one. Erica’s small hand came to my thigh and she gave me a squeeze as if comforting me, I looked at her and she smiled. When the dinner was done, Ami told me that the ballroom in their house rarely get used because Raphael doesn’t like huge parties. So it was the reason she took this occasion to plan this dinner and to decorate the ballroom. I complemented her, and not just to be a gentleman—that I was not. But I had noticed the candles and the flowers,
ERICA“I have something for you too.” At his announcement, I looked at him expectantly as he slipped his hand inside his jacket pocket and brought out another of those rectangular velvet box. I arched a brow as I asked, “Another diamond jewellery?”He shook his head and replied, “Not another.” He opened the box and said, “I had it fixed.”There in the silk rested my bracelet that was only locked around my wrist by the ring which now I wore. I picked him and examined it to see that he had a pale pink pearl fixed in the middle of a platinum ring that now attached the two ends with a simple lock mechanism. I held up my wrist for him to settle it around my wrist. As he locked it, he said, “Do you know it has a tracking chip in it.”I laughed. “Do I know?” I shook my head, “No. But I was sure because I knew you, so it means I knew.”“You are okay with it?” He asked looking skeptical.I pursed my lips and said, “I am more than okay with you, Antonio, and I’m in love with you so I’ll gladl
ANTONIO“Fuck me, husband. Make me scream.”My balls drew up tight at her words, the sparkle in her brown eyes were my undoing and I slammed into her in one hard thrust. Fuck. More than twelve years of having this woman, of having her tight pussy wrapped around my cock and it still somehow feels like the first time. If I could, I’d turn into three of me and fuck her mouth, arse and pussy at the same time, claim every inch of her, every part of her like I wanted to. My hunger for this woman hasn’t abated in all these years and I doubted it’d ever until the day I died. “Oh, god, Antonio...”I grabbed her face, my fingers digging into her cheeks not so gently. “Yeah, baby, tell me.”“Don’t stop. Please.” Hearing her someone might think that she didn’t get proper and regular fucking, but they’d be fool to think that. The truth was my little devil was just hungry for my cock, was still covered in last night bruises and still was begging for more like the dirty little slut that she was fo
EPILOGUE IITwelve years later...ERICA“Mamma, perché siamo qui? Voglio tornare a casa e invitare i miei amici." My daughter asked, her golden brown eyes like her father’s stared up at me in exasperation. It was the third time she had expressed her displeasure to be here at the charity event Gianna has hosted at my behest because I wanted to do something good for their father’s birthday which was tomorrow. But knowing Antonio wouldn’t want anything to happen on the actual day of his birthday as he likes to spend it with us instead of celebrating it, we had made all the arrangements for a day before. (Mom, why are we here? I want to go back to the house and invite my friends over.)“I don’t understand why you want to be with your friends they are all stupid.” Unlike my daughter who had inherited all the explosive characteristics of her father along with his eyes, my son got all the indifferent genes from his father which make him look like an unfeeling brute most of the time but there
Epilogue ITwenty eight weeks later...ANTONIO“So, I thought you wouldn't come again?” Mrs Khan asked.We were sitting in her office. My wife was sitting opposite her own therapist a few doors down, as I sat here after two weeks ago when I had declared I won’t come again. But the problem with anxiety was it never fucking disappears and as the time for Erica’s delivery drew closer, my anxiety only grew bigger. For some reason I feel like I won't be enough for them. That there were hundred different things that could go wrong and my family would've to suffer, it keeps me up at night and makes it hard to get through a day.I rubbed a palm down on my face and I leaned forward to pick up the glass of water. Any other time I might’ve not drunk it but therapy had helped enough to not make me paranoid all the time. After taking a sip, I put the glass down and met her eyes as I said, “I thought that too. But,” Fuck. It was still fucking hard to express myself, to put my fears into words. “But
ERICASome people say the happiest moments come after you’ve lived the saddest ones. And for sure I have had my fair share of sad moments in my life so I guess my husband here was a god’s gift for all those tears and heartache I suffered. And if someone asked me now if I was given a choice to suffer through the same things, same monsters, if it meant getting him at the end of that dark tunnel then I wasn’t sure if my answer would be a no. As we pulled apart from a long hard kiss that wasn’t appropriate for a wedding, I heard our family and friends cheer around us and then a moment later I felt something soft touching my cheek. I looked up and a delighted laugh left me when I saw twp choppers circling over our heads and rose petals being thrown over us. A literal shower of roses. “Antonio!!” I exclaimed, my happiness unbound, and then I ended up squealing as Antonio lifted me up in his arms and took me to the little raised stage set up for dancing. As I danced in my husband’s arms, e
ANTONIO“What’s taking them so fucking long?” I muttered, tugging on my cuffs to straighten them for the sixth time. For the second time when I had woken up in the early hours of the morning, my little devil wasn’t in the bed where she had fallen in a exhausted sleep after I had carried her from the tower. But unlike before this time it was Mario and Summer who decided that it was a great fucking idea to keep Erica away from me until I see her walk down the aisle. It had been only a few hours but I already felt impatient and on the edge. I wanted her glued to my side for every breath I take. It was fûcking impossible to put into words how much I was obsessed with her, how much I loved her. But I swore to myself that I’ll try to convey that to her for the rest of my life. “Are you nervous, Antonio?” Ephraim asked from my side. I refrained from looking at him, unless I’d end up punching him in the face for what happened last night even though he didn’t do anything that I didn’t ask o
(Skip this chapter if you have problem with exhibition and voyeurism and other related elements).ERICA“Here.” As soon as the word left me, Antonio stepped back from me, leaving me feeling cold and adrift. I turned to him, panicked that I made a mistake but found him lowering himself in a loveseat. He crooked his finger and demanded, “Come here.”A calm washed over me when I saw the dark look of arousal in his eyes. When I took a step closer to him, he leaned back in his seat and pointed to his lap as he ordered, “Bend over my lap, baby, present me that arse.”My lower belly clenched at his words and a heated desire coursed through my veins. My eyes went to Z who was still staring at Kat but when I looked at her I found her gaze fixed on me. She arched her brows, silently telling me to go on. I smiled at her, feeling my blood heat at her attention as my heart started to beat in excitement. That smile turned to a hungry look when I faced my dark villain who grew impatient and grabb
ERICA“My handsome Duke!!” Ami stood up, waving on her two feet that were encased in heels and stumbled her way to Raphael, who looked only a little bit amused but his blue eyes darkened as they raked down his wife. She was wearing a red sequin dress that ended just below her arse and by the look on Raphael’s face, I’d say Ami will finally get what she was wishing for. “See, what I did? Are you going to punish me for it!” She asked, blinking her eyes at him as she stumbled and he caught her in his arms.Kat snickered behind me and I couldn't help as my own lips pulled up in a smile. Raphael picked her up in his arms and announced for our benefit or maybe to the men standing on either side of him. “I’ll leave you to deal with your wives, mine needs a strong hand.” We could hear Ami squeal in excitement as they disappeared from the view.“Gianna, go to your room. And for fuck’s sake get rid of that dress.” I shivered at his deep voice, my eyes barely fluttering to Gianna to take in the
ERICA“OH MY GOD! I think I am drunk!!” Ami squealed as the half naked man with a cat mask twirled her around and then took Gianna in his arms who was also half drunk.We were in one of the back towers that I was admiring earlier in the day and Kat had managed to invite the party we were supposed to have here in the castle right under the watchful gazes of our husbands and their men. She was a tricky one. I didn’t know how she managed it but it was awesome and I wasn’t complaining.There were four women out of which two were filling our drinks— unfortunately, non-alcoholic for me, and giving us snacks to munch on while the two men were entertaining us with half their bodies bare and muscles painted what seemed like glitter that shined in the lights. The music was loud but we had checked and the noise couldn’t be heard to the main part of the castle. It was really the bachelorette I didn't think I’ll be having after Antonio fucked me so har
ANTONIOI don’t know what woke me up but when my eyes opened, I instantly became aware of the fact that my little devil wasn’t by my side and that I wasn’t alone in the room. There was a heavy presence in the room that couldn’t be ignored. I slipped my hand beneath my pillow and pulled out my gun as surreptitiously as I could.I wasn’t afraid for myself but my mind was on Erica, she was sleeping in my arms and now she was nowhere in the room, I didn’t even have to check the bathroom to know she wasn’t there. Her absence was like an open chasm in my chest every time she was away from me. After dinner where we were joined by her sister and Gabriel, we had come to sleep in the bedroom but not before I had exhausted her by fûcking her in the mirror room where she had screamed her pleasure that I was sure everyone in the castle heard. Erica was really a voyeur, she came so many times by just looking at our reflection as I fucked her hard, warning her to not go anywhere her friends and sis
