I'll serve you, but you'll wish I didn't.

Diego was out of bed before his alarm went off. He went into his bathroom to freshen up. He cursed underneath his breath as he remembered that he was meant to stay away from baths.

He wiped his face and neck and other body parts with a wet towel before picking out his outfit for the day.

Picking his desired look for the day, he went on to recreate it as he threw on a white dress shirt and a tailored black suit. Silver cufflinks and a silver Rolex w

  • Claimed By The Mafia Brothers    Her Cellphone

    “Now that I have my phone, what am I going to do first??!”–Diego could tell that she was angry, and he would be lying if he said he didn’t expect that from her. But he didn’t want her personal emotions to get in the way of the assignment.She arched her brow at him impatiently. “What?!” she exclaimed. “Aren’t you going to tell me what the assignment is?”“Not until you calm down. I get it, you’re mad, as you should be, but you can’t blame me for holding on to these things, your phone especially, until I knew you could be trusted.”Hearing his words, she felt her body relax a little. “So you… you trust me now?”There was a subtle smile on his face, but he didn’t answer that. The answer was pretty obvious. “So, are you ready to hear the assignment now?”She nodded her head, holding back from smiling like a love-smitten fool.“The trips I usually go on every single year are very important to me, and I can’t miss one of them. Never have, and I don’t plan to start today.”“But you said y

  • Claimed By The Mafia Brothers    An Assignment

    “It’s not supposed to hurt but it still kinda does. Heck, it hurts a lot.” – Rebecca pulled the blanket fully over herself as cold air whipped against her bare skin. She moved to snuggle closer to the man lying next to her, only to realize that she was alone in bed. With a tired yawn, she opened her eyes and sat up. The night before had left her tired and aching, especially down there. It made her wish she hadn’t tried to mess with him. She had used up all her strength, but it still wasn’t enough for him. He was a monster! But her own monster, and she liked him like that. “Where did he go?” she asked herself. “Did he leave already? Diego! Diego?” she called out his name, but there was no response. He had probably gone back to his own room. She rose to her feet and went straight into the bathroom to soak herself in hot water, hoping it would soothe the throbbing down there. After about thirty minutes, she got dressed and went down for breakfast. The two brothers w

  • Claimed By The Mafia Brothers    The punishment

    “Playing with fire only leaves you with a throbbing sensation that makes you wish you hadn't.”– Diego loved how she looked at him, he couldn't help the smirk that made its way to his face. She was all red, staring at him with widened eyes. Her lashes battered repeatedly as she obviously felt flustered. "What are you doing?" She asked him in an almost shaking tone. He tightened his hold around her small waist, pulling her even closer to his chest. "Why are you acting like you did something wrong? What did you do?" His brow arched as he asked. She seemed so flustered, probably wondering why he wasn't saying anything about what he had seen. But he wanted her to confess with her own lips, it was more fun that way. She stuttered as she tried to put words together. "I'm not — I'm not acting like I did anything wrong. I mean, I'm just flustered too, uh... To see you here. What are you — what are you doing here?" "Playing dumb huh..."She let her gaze fall to her feet. "I'm not... I'm

  • Claimed By The Mafia Brothers    A kiss on the cheek

    “How it sucks to be misunderstood and unheard…” –Everything had settled and everyone had dispersed, but Rebecca still wanted to remain in the solace of beautiful flowers. She had finally stopped crying, but she didn't feel like going back to her room. It was too suffocating in there. "You're prettier." A masculine voice said from behind her. She looked back and saw Chase standing there. A slight smile split her face. "Hey..." She muttered softly. He walked up to her and sat down next to her. "I saw you slip out of the crowd teary-eyed. Did you feel bad for me?" he asked, arching his thick brow. Rebecca laughed softly and rubbed her hands against her jeans. She wanted to say something to him, but she didn't know if it would be out of place. "What is it?" he asked as he slightly nudged her with his shoulder. With a smile on her face, she decided to speak up. "Don't you think you overreacted today? Both at breakfast and at the gathering."Chase smiled softly and looked at the a

  • Claimed By The Mafia Brothers    A Reason to Care

    “Will I really watch for him to become a shell?”–Rebecca watched as Chase walked forward toward his brother. He stood beside Diego and spoke audibly. “What the hell is this supposed to achieve, huh?”Diego let out a soft sigh, obviously starting to feel pissed off. “Chase–”“There is a truth my brother won’t say, but I will say it. He favours Vincenzo more than all of us. We’re like slaves to him, but only Vincenzo is like family to him. Have you all not noticed this?” Chase spoke on without a care for his brother’s presence.He continued, not caring that he was being disrespectful. “You all must have noticed this, you can’t lie to yourselves. Only that dog gets all the love, but the rest of us, we’re nothing.”“Chase!” Diego yelled out.Chase turned to look at his brother as he poked the side of his cheek with his tongue, letting out a sigh. “I can’t take it anymore. Diego, you are my brother, and I love you. I want what’s best for you, but you don’t see that, and you trust an outs

    “I don’t want to get involved in this. For heaven’s sake…”–Diego buried himself in his work. He needed something to take his mind off everything that was going on. It was too draining, and he had more pressing issues at hand to deal with.He went back to the work he had been doing earlier, then moved on to some other documents that needed to be reviewed.A sudden knock on his door made his head prop up, and he relaxed into his seat as he noticed his brother walking into his study.“It seems like I am disturbing you,” Chase said as he approached Diego’s desk.“What can I help you with?” Diego’s thick brow arched as he asked.Chase smiled. “When are you going to punish Vincenzo for his reckless move? He’s still within this building, and it makes me uncomfortable.” He folded his arms across his chest as he spoke.Diego laughed softly. “Why does it make you uncomfortable? He has been in our home for over two decades, and all of a sudden, his presence is making you uncomfortable?”“Maybe

    “Say my name. Say it once, say it twice.” _Rebecca almost slapped herself right there. How could she think about sex? Sex with a man like… him???
