King's Captive: A Dark Mafia Romance

by Piper Stone

  “I don’t understand.”

  “I think you do. You’re free to go. I don’t believe you’ll be in any danger since Enrico and the men working for him have been arrested. However, I’ll make sure that no one bothers you.”

  “Why are you doing this?”

  “Why?” he repeated, a thoughtful look crossing his face. “Because I love you. I think I loved you from the first moment I laid eyes on your picture. But sometimes love isn’t enough.” He leaned forward, kissing my forehead. “I will make good on my promise to provide some money. It would seem your boss was in on Enrico’s plan all along. I don’t think you’re going to have a job any longer. You can stay as long as you like, but Dimitri is prepared to take you home whenever you are ready. Just know you will always be in my heart.”

  The shock of his words kept me from finding anything to say, but when he walked away, his shoulders slumped, there was no doubt how I felt any longer.

  “Wait. Please wait. I love you, Cristiano. I would be happy to become your wife.” As I walked toward him, he slowly turned to face me. No longer was there coldness in his eyes.

  They glimmered from happiness as well as love.

  The knock on the door was sharp and unexpected.

  Angelique lifted her eyebrows, waving her hand to force me into another part of the room. Cristiano’s sister had been a godsend the last few days of preparations, becoming another friend as well as a bridesmaid.

  Julia shook her head and moved in front of me in her usual protective mode.

  “Stop,” I hissed, although I had to admit that I loved their attention.

  When Angelique opened the door, she growled in exactly the same way as her brother. “You can’t come in.”

  “Like hell I can’t.” Cristiano’s booming voice gave me a smile, my entire body trembling. “She is going to be my wife, which give me certain privileges. Now, give us a few minutes.”

  “Thank God she’s not in her dress yet,” Angelique admonished. “That’s bad luck, dear brother of mine. Come on, Julia. I think the three of us are going to need some champagne.”

  I laughed as they left the room, my heart fluttering. The sight of him in a tuxedo took my breath away while I remained in a white slip, the beautiful silk just another present from the man I adored.

  “What are you doing here?” I asked coyly.

  He locked the door before advancing, taking me into his arms. “There is a family tradition that must be adhered to.”

  “A family tradition, huh? I wonder what that is?”

  The grin on his face reminded me of a little boy, full of joy.

  As well as love.

  “Absolutely. And you know how traditions go.” He pulled me toward the vanity, standing behind me as we gazed at our reflection. “We make a nice-looking couple.”

  “Imagine what our children will look like.”

  For the first time, I noticed a slight blush on his face, which brought me a smile.

  “Now, down to business.”

  When he leaned me over the vanity, yanking my gown around my waist, I groaned. “What are you doing?”

  “First, I’m checking to see if you’ve remained obedient.”

  When he twisted the plug back and forth, my legs trembled.

  “Good girl.” He hummed as he picked up the wooden brush, twirling it several times. “A pre-wedding spanking. All bad girls need that.”

  “That’s not a tradition!” I yelped as he brought the brush down several times, moving from side to side. The pain was biting, my legs quivering instantly. “Ouch!”

  “Long overdue and needed,” he commented, issuing several more swats in rapid succession.

  “This isn’t fair.”

  “All if fair in love and… war.” Laughing, he rubbed his hand over my already aching bottom before starting again, the thudding sound as difficult to bear as the anguish that continued to build.

  I kept my eyes on the mirror, still able to smile as the hard spanking continued. I knew this was only the start of a routine. He was even more dominating, reminding me that there would be rules.

  But I also knew there would be love in our household, even if we faced danger on a regular basis.

  Cristiano continued humming as he swatted me several more times, making certain he smacked my sit spot repeatedly. I would have trouble sitting comfortably at the reception.

  “Five more. Why don’t you count them off for me? Oh, and remember to provide that level of respect we’ve been talking about.”

  I gritted my teeth as he cracked the brush on my buttocks even harder, waiting for my response.

  “One, sir,” I moaned, resisting giving him a nasty look.

  He gave another.

  “Two. Sir.”

  Whistling, he delivered a third.

  “Three. Sir!”

  “You’re doing very well,” he whispered then brought the brush down again.

  “Four… sir.”

  “And one more.”

  The last smack was the worst, forcing me to lean over the vanity, taking several deep breaths. “Five. Sir.” The defiance in my voice was unstoppable.

  “Such a little brat. I adore that about you.” His grin was even wider. He was enjoying the hell out of this. Damn him.

  He pulled me into his arms, turning me around to face him. “I have two more presents for you.”

  I rubbed my behind, wrinkling my nose.

  His laugh sent a series of vibrations dancing through me. The white box had a simple red bow around it. I eagerly pulled the string and yanked off the lid, smiling at the sight of pink tissue paper. After moving it aside, I groaned, pulling the sterling silver anal plug into my fingers.

  “Do you see the jeweled end?” he asked, his tone full of mischief.

  “Uh-huh. I mean, yes, sir.”

  “That’s a real ruby. I had it crafted for you.”

  I wasn’t certain how I felt about it. All I could do was giggle.

  When he eased a small velvet box into the light, a shiver trickled down my spine. “I almost forgot this.”

  My hand shaking, I struggled to open the little box.

  The ring was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen, the diamond spectacular.

  Gasping, tears formed in my eyes.

  He took my hand, his eyes twinkling. As he placed the ring on my finger, I heard him say the words that would always make me swoon.

  “I love you, little flower. You are my life.”

  While every little girl dreamt of their perfect wedding, I’d never expected that I’d have such joy in my heart as I walked down the aisle. The day was perfect, much like the one I’d shared with him in the garden.

  Bright blue skies.

  A light breeze.

  Amazing music.

  Exquisite white and sterling silver roses in my arms.

  The most gorgeous dress.

  And the love of a dangerous yet amazing man.

  While life would never be easy or perfect, I was determined that my knight in shining armor would keep the joy in his heart.

  And I knew that sweet Bella was watching from heaven, her love imbedded in his heart.

  His as Payment

  Caroline Hargrove thinks she is mine
because her father owed me a debt, but that isn’t why she is sitting in my car beside me with her bottom sore inside and out. She’s wet, well-used, and coming with me whether she likes it or not because I decided I want her, and I take what I want.

  As a senator’s daughter, she probably thought no man would dare lay a hand on her, let alone spank her thoroughly and then claim her beautiful body in the most shameful ways possible.

  She was wrong. Very, very wrong. She’s going to be mastered, and I won’t be gentle about it.

  Taken as Collateral

  Francesca Alessandro was just meant to be collateral, held captive as a warning to her father, but then she tried to fight me. She ended up sore and soaked as I taught her a lesson with my belt and then screaming with every savage climax as I taught her to obey in a much more shameful way.

  She’s mine now. Mine to keep. Mine to protect. Mine to use as hard and as often as I please.

  Buy on Amazon

  Forced to Cooperate

  Willow Church is not the first person who tried to put a bullet in me. She’s just the first I let live. Now she will pay the price in the most shameful way imaginable. The stripes from my belt will teach her to obey, but what happens to her sore, red bottom after that will teach the real lesson.

  She will be used mercilessly, over and over, and every brutal climax will remind her of the humiliating truth: she never even had a chance against me. Her body always knew its master.

  Claimed as Revenge

  Valencia Rivera became mine the moment her father broke the agreement he made with me. She thought she had a say in the matter, but my belt across her beautiful bottom taught her otherwise and a night spent screaming her surrender into the sheets left her in no doubt she belongs to me.

  Made to Beg

  Sierra Fox showed up at my door to ask for my protection, and I gave it to her… for a price. She belongs to me now, and I’m going to use her beautiful body as thoroughly as I please. The only thing for her to decide is how sore her cute little bottom will be when I’m through claiming her.

  She came to me begging for help, but as her moans and screams grow louder with every brutal climax, we both know it won’t be long before she begs me for something far more shameful.

  Ruthless

  Treating a mobster shot by a rival’s goons isn’t really my forte, but when a man is powerful enough to have a whole wing of a hospital cleared out for his protection, you do as you’re told.

  To make matters worse, this isn’t first time I’ve met Giovanni Calduchi. It turns out my newest patient is the stern, sexy brute who all but dragged me back to his hotel room a couple of nights ago so he could use my body as he pleased, then showed up at my house the next day, stripped me bare, and spanked me until I was begging him to take me even more roughly and shamefully.

  Now, with his enemies likely to be coming after me in order to get to him, all I can do is hope he’s as good at keeping me safe as he is at keeping me blushing, sore, and thoroughly satisfied.

  Dangerous

  I knew Erik Chenault was dangerous the moment I saw him. Everything about him should have warned me away, from the scar on his face to the fact that mobsters call him Blade. But I was drawn like a moth to a flame, and I ended up burnt… and blushing, sore, and thoroughly used.

  Now he’s taken it upon himself to protect me from men like the ones we both tried to leave in our past. He’s going to make me his whether I like it or not… but I think I’m going to like it.

  Prey

  Within moments of setting eyes on Sophia Waters, I was certain of two things. She was going to learn what happens to bad girls who cheat at cards, and I was going to be the one to teach her.

  But there was one thing I didn’t know as I reddened that cute little bottom and then took her long and hard and oh so shamefully: I wasn’t the only one who didn’t come here for a game of cards.

  I came to kill a man. It turns out she came to protect him.

  Nobody keeps me from my target, but I’m in no rush. Not when I’m enjoying this game of cat and mouse so much. I’ll even let her catch me one day, and as she screams my name with each brutal climax she’ll finally realize the truth. She was never the hunter. She was always the prey.

  Given

  Stephanie Michaelson was given to me, and she is mine. The sooner she learns that, the less often her cute little bottom will end up well-punished and sore as she is reminded of her place.

  But even as she promises obedience with tears running down her cheeks, I know it isn’t the sting of my belt that will truly tame her. It is what comes next that will leave her in no doubt she belongs to me. That part will be long, hard, and shameful… and I will make her beg for all of it.

  Dangerous Stranger

  I came to Spain hoping to start a new life away from dangerous men, but then I met Rafael Santiago. Now I’m not just caught up in the affairs of a mafia boss, I’m being forced into his car.

  When I saw something I shouldn’t have, Rafael took me captive, stripped me bare, and punished me until he felt certain I’d told him everything I knew about his organization… which was nothing at all. Then he offered me his protection in return for the right to use me as he pleases.

  Now that I belong to him, his plans for me are more shameful than I could have ever imagined.

  Indebted

  She will try to run, of course, but it won’t be the law that comes after her. It will be me.
