Niko POVAfter I put her little body to bed, I ordered Mario and Gio to stay out of her room. I forgot I ordered them to keep an eye on her at all times. I really didn't think they watched her sleep though.I headed to bed and went right out. This is why men need a good fuck. I needed to release all the shit I dealt with these past days. Taking that woman was like nothing I ever felt before too. I have never been inside one without a condom either. I don't think I could wear one with her again. Her soft walls felt so perfect wrapped around my dick. I didn't want anything between us.I woke early in the morning for my flight to Chicago. I would be gone for a few days and debated waking her up and forcing her to come with me. There was a war brewing there and I couldn't risk her outburst though. I informed Marie to get her the pill since I came inside her last night and that damn maid nearly cried she was so happy. I really didn't understand women. Once I arrived at the Vitelli mansion
Vivian POVI slammed the door, heading to my garden while wiping away my tears. This was bullshit. How was I a prisoner to the head of the Mafia now? I was a normal person, just living my life and then one trip to the bathroom and everything changed. Tommy should have never talked to me knowing what danger it put me in. He really didn't fucking care one bit about me. I went to my milkweed plants and watched the little caterpillars in the cocoons for hours. They were going to emerge any day now. I couldn't wait to set them all free."Ms. V, we have a party tonight and the boss asked me to have you dressed." Marie was standing a few feet behind me."I don't really have a choice, do I?" I sulked, slowly caressing the plants with my fingertips."With the party, no. You do have a choice whether you'll enjoy it though. Dominick and Sophia are already back and the Capo is still requesting your presence. It's better then sitting in your room all night.""I guess I should be thankful my prison
Niko POVI didn't see Vivian until she met us downstairs for the little party of the families. The second my eyes saw her body in that tight dress I wanted to rip it off her. I didn't even care if everyone watched as I tore deep into that pussy. I know she wants me too and I know she liked how I fucked her. I just didn't understand why she kept avoiding me or yelling at me. I approached her at the bar, but she immediately had that attitude. As badly as I wanted to spank that behavior out of her, the last thing I needed was for the families to think she was allowed to disrespect me. If some plaything could speak to me that way then everyone would expect they could do the same. I just needed to figure out how to get her naked again. I never had to work this hard for a woman. It was both amusing and frustrating. After the party winded down I headed back down for my second dessert. I would prefer Vivian bent over, but I guess cake would have to do for tonight. "Are you sneaking food to
Vivian POVI laid naked on the bed with my legs hung over Niko's. The way his body just fucked me had me unable to catch my breath. He was so rough and I loved it. He felt like a huge beast desperate to make me his. He tugged and squeezed at my body, grunting to pound into me deeper and God, just thinking about it was making me wet again. I was so sore though and I knew it would be worse in the morning. Niko was the thickest man I ever been with plus, he wasn't gentle. My pussy was stretched and bruised from that beast he had down there. "What do you mean you don't call any women?" I asked after a while of us just laying there."Oh god, do we have to talk again?" He grunted, covering his eyes with his arm. I smacked his shoulder. "Don't be an asshole. I asked you to wear a condom so you don't give me fucked up diseases and you said you don't call any women. I deserve to know Niko. It's my pussy you want to fuck bare."He laughed then rolled over, placing himself on top of me. His a
Niko POVThe second she slammed her bathroom door I left. She always had to play some kind of game. Why can't we just simply fuck and move on? No, she wants to tease and talk, then fight and deny me again. I was done with it. I don't even know why I get so worked up anyways. I showered and climbed in my bed ready to pass out. That was really good pussy and that's all that matter right now. As my mind drifted to sleep my phone buzzed with a message from Mario."She's in the closet again." Of course she is, why, because she makes no fucking sense. Who sleeps on the floor of a closet when there is expensive ass mattress for her curl up in. I twisted and turned in my bed unable to find sleep. I had an important meeting tomorrow then these prisoners will be arriving. I didn't have time to waste on this woman. I threw my covers off and left on a war path. I stomped down to her room, ripped her door open then the closet door. There she fucking was again. Curled up in a ball on the floor w
Vivian POVI can't believe that arrogant caveman. I know he is clueless when it comes to women, but he has no heart whatsoever."Ms. V, please calm down." Marie shushed me while blotting my makeup. I only let a few tears fall, but it was enough to make my eyeliner run. "I'm sorry Marie. I didn't mean to ruin my makeup. He just gets me so pissed off how he thinks he owns me. I'm losing my mind in this house and he finds it amusing.""Oh child, are you so blind you don't see how he cares for you? Niko had no one growing up and was raised to be a protector of the families. He doesn't know how to love, but he shows you in other ways.""By constantly requesting my body for his pleasure. That isn't love, that is lust. That man wants me because I'm young with a nice body. If I was killed tonight, he would be upset he failed Tommy and nothing else. Probably relieved he didn't have to listen to my tantrums anymore.""Maybe..." she sighed before continuing. "I've known the Capo since he was a b
Niko POV"You didn't fix anything." I said calmly, trying to not to lose my temper as I pointed to her body on the floor."Why is she in the closet?" Paul asked. He was half awake from being dragged out of bed. I needed him to see how messed up she was though. "I don't know!" I spit out through gritted teeth. I picked up her small body that fit perfectly in my arms then laid her on her bed. "I said to fix her!" I ordered Paul then walked out. The next morning, I heard her laughing at the table. She never woke before me. I glanced at the time and it was six am like every morning I came down here."What are you wearing?" I asked, scanning her body. She had a bra and half of those stocking things on. Who sits down to breakfast in a bra?"I'm taking V on a run of the property." Paul answered for her. "If that's ok, Capo?" he quickly added. She rolled her eyes at him. "Of course it is ok. I'm allowed to do anything I want, just as long as I don't leave the property... ever." She looked a
Vivian POVNiko asked if I was afraid of him and I blurted out the truth. I should have said "duh, you're a beast with no heart. Everyone is afraid of you." There was something about the way he looked at me though. He liked the fear running through my body, but somehow, I knew he wouldn't hurt me. Not just because of the stupid vow. He wanted me at his mercy. Probably to fuck me senseless, but at least it wasn't to kill me.I cleaned up my garden some then headed upstairs to change for dinner. Tonight, we had guests and prisoners arriving. This should be fun. One more check I can make on the list of things I never wanted to experience in life.I sat quietly at dinner, waiting nervously for these prisoners. I couldn't get them out of my head and had no idea who they were. Would they be beast like Niko, bound and blind folded? Is Niko really going to peel skin from their bodies while I sleep a few rooms above them? How do these people carry on like this? I glanced toward Niko and his
Michael POV"Lucy," her name slipped right off my tongue like it was the only word I should ever speak. "I love you Michael, and I don't understand why." She roughly shoved my chest, forcing me to lay back down. Her long legs moved to straddle my waist, those thick thighs flush against me. It was sexy, but the look in her eyes was a little scary. Was she pissed? Horny? "Lucy, I...," It wasn't even a thought of how I felt, it just was, but she didn't let me finish. "No, don't say it. I can't hear it, Michael. I just need to tell you how frustrated it makes me. I don't understand how I could love you. I don't understand why I can't walk away and it pisses me off." Her tone became sharper."This isn't sounding like compliments, baby." My eyebrows knit together, a little unsure if I should move or say something to defuse the situation. "It's not! I'm mad at you and I want it to stop! I want my life back." She shouted even louder, confirming this was definitely a hostile situation. He
Michael POVI didn't know how I was going to let her go, but I knew I had to. Our time together was running out, and I wanted to stretch every moment until my last breath, maybe even beyond if that were possible."They so grown!" Viv cried on the large iPad Paul held up to watch the kids all get their diplomas. Dylan made a bit of spectacle, hugging the principal and jumping with his fist raised as he walked back down the other side. That one had me a little worried about the true value he had in my world, but Amy trusted him. She needed as many friends as she could get right now. "They sure are. It's only been ten years. How does that feel like both a lifetime and barely a year?" Paul wiped a few tears from his eyes and I gave him a look of disgust. This man was supposed to be my Second."Damn! Are we sure that one is really in high school?" Vinnie googled-eyed some girl with long tan legs in very high heels walking the stage. "Technically, no, since she just got her diploma," I sa
Lucy POVIt was a quiet and very awkward ride to School. Zander tried making conversation, noting how this was our last moment as Seniors. It felt more surreal than anything to me. Almost as if I was brought back in time to relieve this day. I was no longer a Senior or teenager the day those men snatched me up. "Where is my brother?" Amy asked Paul with scorn."He is resting but will be there before it starts. I got Viv on standby too. All the kids are excited to see you get your diploma." Paul spoke cheerfully but it was met with nothing but hate from Amy. She didn't say anything else about it because I don't think she could be mean to her Aunt and cousins like she has been to all of us. "I can't believe I'm graduating again." Dylan laughed and we all looked at him confused. "I'm ordered to stay close to the package." His knee tapped Amy's and she turned to look out the window. "I thought I would at least get a smile. You're really that pissed about going?" He said, sounding annoy
Amy POVI hated that everyone tried to calm me down. I had every reason to be pissed, and every reason to keep them at arm's length. "Amy, this is our day. I don't want to leave and I don't want to walk down that line without you and Lucy at my side. Can't we just pretend we are still friends, just for today?" He gave me those deep brown puppy dog eyes. Zander had a clean-cut navy suit on, his hands in pockets, and his hair purposely styled that cute bedhead look. "I can't." I fiddled with my dress on the bed. "I just want to be alone. It's easier that way." I admitted. "You've been anything but alone lately." Zander jabbed at me, and I knew it was about me sleeping with questionable men. "You know what I mean." I sighed and turned to him. "Can you please just go home? I don't want to go tonight with you or Lucy. I don't want to go at all." "I know you miss them, Amy. Niko and Viv would be here if they could. They weren't your only family though." He tried reasoning with me."It
Lucy POVWatching Michael at dinner was both terrifying and exhilarating. He held so much sway over hundreds of people. And now he held all their money too. I don't think I would have the balls to do what he did, and I definitely wouldn't have helped hack so many accounts if I knew this was the end game. I had to trust him though. We were in this now, and there was no turning back."You should get dressed." Michael appeared behind me, his hand smoothing over my dress. "I don't think I should leave. It feels wrong." My body trembled slightly. I was afraid to leave his side. I was afraid of what waited for me beyond his protection. He declared war, and I was an easy target."Paul will be with you every second. My men are already positioned at the school and have eyes on every inch of the stadium. Go, graduate, and enjoy this moment. I'll make sure you are safe." He promised and I did truly feel safe knowing he was watching out for me."Are you coming?" I looked back to him over my sho
Michael POVI pulled out the chair positioned to the right of mine. "Lucy," I nodded for her to come. Not only was it polite and damn swoon-worthy to hold out her chair, but putting her on my right gave her a higher position than some damn mistress I knocked up. Plus, that move should remove any chance of Jared so much as trying to speak to her again. She was mine and no one touched her.Vinnie moved to my left and I gave him a cross look. He can't take the position of my Second, not yet at least. Vinnie cracked a smile and pulled the chair out for Paul. I turned to my seat, half rolling my eyes that Vinnie was still being a wise ass. The games needed to end.I stood behind my chair, waiting for everyone to settle. Only those officially in the family were in this room. All the others had a more party-like setting outside. Amy stood at the door, arms and ankles crossed, daring me to kick her out. I didn't miss the glances at Lucy from her either. "Thank you everyone for joining us to
Michael POVThe tension from everyone around me was thick, and suffocating, but I had to ignore it. We all had our positions and if we didn't make every move exactly right we could all end up dead. Paul spent the next hour spreading whispers of betrayal, he conveyed his absolute disgust of my decisions to any that would hear. It would grab the attention of Niko's men and start a small riot within their ranks. Vinnie was the smart-ass jokester both unwaveringly loyal to me, and crazy enough to start a blood bath in my honor. Niko's men would never align with him, or trust him with a plan. But that would open the door for those disloyal within the Grasso's to take him under their wing. Amy played both sides by acting as the scared lost girl, someone tough who wanted revenge even at the cost of her life, but also someone who loved her brother dearly. She should be removed from all sides and none will be able to fully trust her. Last was Lucy, the one person in all this mess who was i
Michael POVI don't know what this woman was doing to me, but I didn't want it to stop. I needed her in a way I never needed anyone. She was always in the back of my mind, for months I found ways to single her out in my torment, but then it turned into something more, a touch, a kiss, a need. Now, since I woke from that night my whole world flipped upside down, I wanted her in a whole new way. "Help me get dressed?" I said casually as I grabbed my suit from the chair. Her dress was under mine and I couldn't wait to see her in it."Of course." Lucy jumped right up and followed me to the bathroom. I definitely didn't need help getting dressed, but I definitely needed to see her naked again."You like?" I watched her unzip the bag, revealing a sophisticated but sexy white dress. The neckline was to her collarbone, concealing those beautiful babies in her chest. I knew she didn't like revealing too much skin, and I preferred it that way too. I had enough jealousy swarming inside me with
Lucy POVThe moment I walked inside there was chaos everywhere. It seemed like hundreds of workers were renovating the house and I really just wanted some quiet. "I'll head upstairs. Maybe he won't wake until 3." I looked to Vinnie and Paul."I already sent him a text you were on your way because the dinosaur failed," Vinnie said and I closed my eyes. "Are you that afraid of him or just want us to get our asses handed to us?" I shot back at him. He was annoyingly loyal to Michael."Hey, I'm just doing my job. I don't need to get shot over this crap." Vinnie put his hands up in defense."No one is getting shot!" I yelled back, frustrated and so damn tired of this life. I half ran up the stairs, preparing my body for a fight that I didn't want to have. If I wanted to come home, I should be able to come home, and no one gets shot because of it.But the second I opened the door I froze. Michael was sound asleep in my bed, with no shirt or bandage over his long scar down his chest. I do
