RENATO MARINO

After exchanging one last look with Salvio, a look that conveyed my urgent need for vigilance and ensured nothing went awry, I entered the room with my nephews, closing the door behind me.

My hand instinctively patted my pocket for my gun, and a sigh of relief escaped my lips when I realized it wasn't there.

I had given it to Jayce, which meant he was safe – at least, that was some comfort. I had enough on my mind that morning, and I didn't need to worry about him too.

Not today.

"Where's Nikola?" I asked as soon as I settled into my seat on the couch, snagging a cigarette from Marcelo in the process.

I just couldn't shake off the craving for a smoke; without one, I might actually lose my grip on sanity. My nephews were in danger, and my asshole brother wouldn't lift a finger to help his own sons.

Giovanni grumbled as he moved away from the window, covering his nose in distaste as I puffed out smoke. "Niko's still at the hospital; he'll join us later."

Typical Marcelo he is such a romantic NOT, god he never learns. But on that note it's great to see that Adrian has Gio by the balls.

  • Break Me Apart (MxM)   026. Will she survive it?

    JAYCE BECKETT As soon as Renato left with his nephews, I received a text from Chief Strand, requesting a meeting with him later. The message was brief, with no details or context, which sparked my curiosity. Was it related to the files I had sent? Had he discovered something? Was my mission already over? The uncertainty of the meeting gnawed at me, leaving my mind uneasy."Keep your eyes open," Salvio barked, his voice low and urgent. "There's an order from the boss for us to stay on our toes, nothing must go wrong."I rolled my eyes as the underlings quickly took their positions, their movements almost robotic. Were they seriously that intimidated by Salvio? "You!" he barked, his voice sharp and commanding. I looked up, and his gaze locked onto mine, his eyes straining with an intensity that made me feel uneasy. I pointed a finger at my chest, questioning. "Me?""Yes, Jake," he said, his voice firm, crunching his nose in a way that seemed almost... disapproving. "Come with me."

  • Break Me Apart (MxM)   027. Not good enough

    RENATO MARINO I watched in horror as Jayce was pushed out of the window, his body plummeting three stories to the ground. My breath caught in my throat, my mind racing, as I felt my legs turn to stone. He landed with a deafening crash on the concrete floor, his chest slamming against a jagged metal edge. Panic gripped me as his body went still, he seemed lifeless.A wave of intense anger and rage washed over me as I stared at the almost lifeless body on the floor, my mind stubbornly superimposing Aspen's face onto Jayce's stilled form. The resemblance was uncanny, and my brain seemed to be wired to conflate the two, making it impossible for me to see Jayce's features. Instead, I saw Aspen's lifeless eyes, his pale skin, and the pool of blood spreading from his head. The memories of our tumultuous past came flooding back, and I felt like I was reliving the pain of losing him all over again. The lines between reality and fantasy blurred, and for a moment, I was convinced that it wa

    RENATO MARINO My eyes dropped to the mess of bodies on the floor, sprawled out beside my feet. Bits of hair and skull fragments were stuck to my shoes, and the sole of my shoe was smeared with blood. I took a step backward, recoiling in anger, and tossed the hammer onto the floor with a loud clang.I was seething with anger, still reeling from the uncertainty of who had sent those fuckers after my family. The not knowing was eating away at me. I resented the weight of responsibilities that had fallen on my shoulders. When my brother was still here, I didn't have to worry as much about my nephews' well-being, knowing they could fend for themselves and had their father to turn to when things got tough. I'd only offer help when I could, but now it seemed like I had to take on a more active role.Knowing my brother wasn't here and his enemies had become his sons' enemies, was making me restless. If only that bastard would settle whatever dispute he had with Sasha, and if only my brothe

  • Break Me Apart (MxM)   029. Who is she?

    JAYCE BECKETT My body felt like lead, heavy and unresponsive, as soft, warm hands worked their way through my hair, the gentle touch a stark contrast to the confusion brewing inside me. A soothing voice whispered words that danced just out of reach, the meaning lost on me, but the tone was unmistakable - a mix of curiosity and concern. "Isn't it sad that you look so much like him?" The voice floated the question, its softness and gentleness doing nothing to ease the unease that settled in the pit of my stomach. "What will happen if he falls in love with another version of himself all over again?" The voice probed, its words like a slow-burning fire that threatened to consume me. I struggled to make sense of the cryptic comments, my mind foggy and my body refusing to cooperate. I strained to lift my head, to open my eyes, to confront the mysterious voice and demand answers. Who was speaking to me? What did they mean? And who was the "him" they spoke of? The questions s

    JAYCE BECKETT A certain someone? Who could that certain someone be if not the baby that the disgusting bastards had kidnapped? My mind was racing with possibilities, but my primary concern was the safety of the child. "I don't know who you are, but can you please tell me if they are able to save the baby?" I pleaded with my eyes, imploring her to tell me exactly what I wished to hear. My gaze locked onto hers, and I felt a surge of desperation. I needed to know that the baby was safe.She stared at me for what felt like an eternity, her eyes piercing through mine as if searching for something. After what felt like an endless moment, she nodded her head, her hair bobbing up and down in a gentle motion. "Yes," she said, pausing for dramatic effect, a sly smirk spreading across her face. "I heard she's fine." The words were like a balm to my frazzled nerves, and I felt a wave of relief wash over me. I let out a shaky breath, one that I hadn't realized I was holding.The weight of re

    JAYCE BECKETT This is one heck of a house. I had no idea how many corners I had to turn and how much farther I had to walk before I could get to Renato's goddamn study. The villa was enormous – and I thought Cole's father's house was massive when I first visited. Back then, I believed it was the largest house in all of New York. But after walking for a solid ten minutes and still not reaching Renato's study, I could confidently say that his was the biggest house in the entire city.It was already late, and instead of searching for Renato to retrieve my phone, I probably should have headed home. But the uncertainty about what that bastard was using my phone for, and whether he'd seen my chats with Chief Strand, made me determined to see him at all costs. I paused in front of a tall double door – the same one the girl said led to Renato's study. "Who the fuck hides their study this far away?" I grumbled, raising my hand to knock on the door. However, I hesitated when I heard a cras

  • Break Me Apart (MxM)   032. Have sex with me

    RENATO MARINO Was I pathetically lonely? Or did what happened today mess with my head so much that I can’t think straight anymore? Or maybe it was the fact that I went on a six-hour drive, only to turn back around when I saw my brother entering his apartment with some random guy clinging to him like a fucking leech. The thought of my nephews being in danger, while my brother was busy enjoying himself without a care in the world, made me so mad I could've walked over there and put a fucking bullet in his head. Yet, I had turned my engine back on and drove off like the fucking pussy I was. I was mad – no, that's an understatement. I was fucking infuriated! When I got back home, I was boiling over with anger, and all I wanted was to check on Jayce, hoping his familiar face would somehow calm me down. But instead of soothing my fury, he only intensified it, making me feel even angrier. Chocolate had handed me his phone, and inside, I found a chat he'd been having with a fe

  • Break Me Apart (MxM)   033. Unromantic sex

    JAYCE BECKETT I was sexually frustrated. And It was messing with my head. My fucking sanity. It hadn't even been that long since I last had sex with Cole, so why was I getting turned on just by having Renato's hands around my throat, cutting my airway? I should be irritated. Having Renato Marino, a disgusting criminal, running his tongue over my Adam's apple and sucking roughly on my neck should be repulsive. Yet... It did not irritate me! Not even in the slightest. The feel of his erection, digging an invisible hole into my stomach as he pressed me hard against the sofa with his full weight pressing hard on my body, made me feel something I had never felt for anyone before. He said he wanted to have sex with me, and every logical person, especially a law enforcement officer like myself, should be offended by that offer. But maybe I had lost my morals because I actually wanted to do this. Even if he hadn't proposed giving me his information every time we had sex, I

    RENATO MARINO The drive was in total silence, the only sound you could possibly hear was the soft hum of Nikola's car. My breathing was shallow, and my heartbeat felt almost nonexistent. I shifted in my seat, a low grunt escaping as discomfort set in. My wounds throbbed, but I resisted the urge to scratch them. I raised my hand to my hair, flexing my fingers as I raked them through the strands."Fucking do something about your hair, it's disgusting!" Jayce's words echoed in my mind, and I let out a dry, humorless huff. As I recalled his comment, I couldn't help but think about the state of my hair. This morning, staring at my reflection, I'd noticed the tangled mess staring back at me. The once-white color had dulled, overgrown with roots and now more of a reddish hue. I wondered why I'd chosen white in the first place. It had seemed like a bold statement then, but now it just looked like a mess. "Talk about making a wrong choice," I thought to myself, shaking my head.“Another

    JAYCE BECKETT A throbbing sensation consumed me at first, but as I began to register my surroundings, I became aware of a cool cloth on my forehead, the gentle softness of sheets beneath me, and the warmth of a blanket covering me. I slowly forced my eyes open to see that I was in my room.The last thing I remembered was rushing home after a frantic exit from Renato's Villa, feeling like my life was falling apart. I'd walked into my living room to find Cole hunched over his laptop, typing away furiously as he told me something about applying for a marriage license. But I'd been too overwhelmed to respond, and the next thing I knew, I was slumping to the floor, blacking out completely. Cole must have carried me to my room."That fucker." I groaned, rubbing my eyes.BEEP.BEEP.The jarring sound of my alarm blaring ripped through the air, prompting a harsh grunt from me. I lifted my hand, first removing the damp cloth from my forehead, and then reaching for the annoying alarm on the

    RENATO MARINO Lying around and healing? Not exactly my style. I'd rather get to work on the task that slimy Sasha had dumped on me. The clock was ticking – the new Don would be chosen soon, and I needed to move quickly.I slipped out of bed and padded silently around the guest room. I'd held onto the hope that Jayce would still be here when I woke up, but he was long gone. "That bastard," I muttered, wincing as I clutched my side. The guest room was spotless, and I couldn't help but notice the tidiness. The cleaner wouldn't have arrived this early, and Chocolate usually avoided morning visits to spare me the embarrassment of being seen naked. That left only one person – Jayce. "So, he cleaned up before ditching an injured guy? Classy move," I said with a mix of annoyance and sarcasm.If I'd known he'd bail as soon as he realized I was playing him, I wouldn't have said his name. And honestly, I wasn't even trying to play him in the first place.What I saw wasn't a lie. At first, a

    JAYCE BECKETT I was still desperately trying to dull the throbbing pain in my butt, but it seemed like an impossible task.Every twitch, every shift, every beat of my heart sent a fresh of agony through my butt. I can't remember how long this had been going on for. Whoever Aspen was, he was one strong bastard! I didn't think I could keep going, but each time, that bastard would groan and grunt, grumbling how Aspen was so strong enough to take him in for two days straight without stopping.Somehow, I was starting to doubt if Renato was only trying to convince himself that I was Aspen. Or maybe he already knew who I was and was doing this to punish me for impersonating his lover.I was literally dying. I hadn't exactly seen where people died from having too much sex but I was convinced I was going to become the first victim.I could feel Renato trembling against me, and just when I thought he had finally reached his limit and was going to cum, he pulled out of me.

    JAYCE BECKETT “Are you ready for me? Because I need you badly, baby.” Renato murmured, giving my hole one last lick before coming up for breath.We had long moved from the table to the bed, and I must admit this bed was a little small for the two of us.But that made it even more thrilling. I loved the way Renato pressed against me like there was no other space for him but to invade my space.I removed my two fingers from my hole and tucked my hands behind my knees to keep me raised and folded in half, ass lifted in offering. I hadn't exactly loved the idea when Rebato asked me to fuck my hole while he suck my ass. But the moment my two big fingers slipped past the first ring and Renato's tongue followed, I felt like I had been stuffed full inside.“Fuck me. Now. And don’t stop,” I paused to breathe, staring at him with my teary eyes. “even if I beg you to, don't stop.”Renato lowered over me, the width of his body keeping me open, allowing my hands to roam free. He gripped the wide

    JAYCE BECKETT It took nothing at all. No effort for Renato to say, “Baby. You are my heart.” I knew I shouldn't feel hurt, but it stung to realize Renato thought he was standing here with someone named Aspen, not me. I was the one pretending to be the person his heart longed for, yet the truth made everything feel hollow and bitter. The thought of Renato touching me, kissing me, wanting me, but seeing someone else's face in his mind and whispering another name made my stomach turn. It was a twisted, toxic dynamic, and yet, I couldn't help but crave it anyway. The disconnect between reality and his perception made my feelings for him even more complicated, tangled in a web of desire and resentment.I couldn't quite put my finger on what I was feeling inside. It wasn't like I had romantic feelings for Renato or wanted a relationship with him. We didn't share any meaningful connection that would warrant this level of emotional investment. Yet, hearing him bare his heart to someone

    JAYCE BECKETT "What?" I choked on a laugh, staring incredulously at him. Was it really the medication that was causing him to act this way, or was Renato just messing with me? The look on his face was so sincere, so full of longing, that I couldn't help but wonder what was going on in that head of his. I searched his eyes for any sign of joking or teasing, but all I saw was a deep, almost desperate yearning. It was unnerving, to say the least."I'm serious. Otherwise, I'm not taking that thing." He shrugged, a faint, almost-wry smile playing on the corner of his mouth. The smile didn't quite reach his eyes, but it softened the intensity of his gaze, making me wonder what was really going on behind that mask of seriousness."Fine," I breathed out, shaking my head at the absurdity of arguing with someone who was clearly not at their best. "It's my fault for waiting around. I should have just left you and gone home." I turned to grab the pills from the table, but before I could even

    JAYCE BECKETT I rolled my eyes. Renato was different than I expected him to be when he was asleep and defenceless. There was a gentle, cute side that I never would have expected. If Renato was any other man, he would be perfect for me."What the fuck am I saying?" I chuckled, shaking my head as I watched him sleep. Chocolate came in here about three hours ago, telling me to prepare myself and I still didn't know what that meant.She said that was the doctor's words and she was the one who asked her to give me that package."I don't get it," I sighed, brushing a strand of his silver turned red hair off his face. "Do you seem to have strong sexual urge whenever you're sick? Everyone is acting weird."I made to stand up, to go check my phone for time because it seemed to be about time Renato take his pills.The doctor said to feed him the pills every two hours, and I must admit, it was damn hard to feed a sleeping man. "I can't believe I fed you medicine through my mouth." I chuckled
