Cutting off whatever she was about to say, he cupped her mound and stroked her clit. “It’s true. And I can’t stand the idea of anything happening to you,” while stroking her clit again with one hand, and pinching a nipple with the other. She half-moaned half-whimpered, gripping his shoulder to steady herself.
“Like that, baby?” Her eyes flipped open and her glare was fierce.
“Do we really need to talk?” she said and he cupped her harder and stroked her clit again.
“I’ll talk however much I want,” Ricco growled, she was going to have to learn some manners.
“What? AHHHH!” she yelled when he pinched her clit.
He slid a finger through her slit and he whispered, “Yeah? Well this sweet talker is about to fuck you, baby.”
With deliberation, he slipped his hands under her thighs, hoisted her up and plunged inside her, seating himself to the hilt in one harsh stroke. He backed her up to the wall, the watered between their torsos.
They both groaned. “Sweet Jesus, Bella,” he breathed against her lips as her muscles clamped around his cock. She was so hot, tight, and wet, and she was all his whether she liked it or not anymore.
Why did it have to feel so good to have him inside me? she thought, she wanted to seduce him, but the way it was going, she had lost control. The way he filled her and stretched her made her feel completely and utterly taken.
She wanted so much to be able to lay in his arms and know they belonged together. It was what she had been missing in her life. She knew that now. She needed someone to stand by her side, to support her, and that was what Ricco was offering, and Bella was going to take it.
“Can you feel how much I love being deep inside you?” his voice thick with lust and a need to move that for whatever dumb reason, he was resisting.
She nodded.
“You love it too,” he whispered.
Bella tightened her legs around his hips and squeezed her inner muscles around his dick, hoping to entice him. “You want me to fuck you, baby?” he grinned.
“Are you freaking kidding me? I am wrapped around you like a damn monkey, and you want to know the answer to that question?”
“Come on, baby, I need to hear it. I want you to admit that it’s only me you want, no one else.”
Damn him, she thought. She remained quiet.
“Admit it. It is only me you want buried inside you like this?”
“Yes,” she cried moving against him. Rewardingly, he withdrew and then drove himself deep. She groaned and locked her arms around his neck.
“You will be beside me from here on out?” He stilled his motions waiting for her reply.
“Yes.” Again he withdrew and then surged into her, wringing another groan from her.
“Who do you belong to? Tell me,” Ricco demanded as he stilled once again.
“You,” she screamed.
“That’s a very good thing, baby, because if another guy even tries to touch you again, I’ll fucking kill him.” Palming her ass to hold her still, he began pounding into her as if he was possessed.
It was exactly how she wanted him. God, it was absolutely amazing. Each thrust was harsh and ruthless. It was as if each time he drove into her, he was driving home his words.
“I’ve needed you since the second I laid eyes on you, Bella. Even then, even that very first day, I couldn’t shake the goddamn feeling that you were mine.”
She opened her mouth to say something but all that came out was a moan. Bella realized then that she had known it as well. Part of her wanted to deny she was his or anyone else’s, it was too fast, yet another part of her wanted to growl at him that he was hers too and that he’d better remember that.
She didn’t know what he saw in her expression but suddenly he raised a brow and growled, “Are you going to tell me you’re not mine?” He knotted a hand in her hair. “Are you?”
Bella gasped and said, “No, just don’t stop.”
"Never, I will give you everything you need, everything. Let's get a little more comfortable," he gave her a lopsided smile. He shut off the shower and then opened the door, carrying her into the bedroom and he laid her down gently, both of their skin pink from the hot water, both still with beads of water on their bodies, Bella shivered, she felt her nipples get hard from the cool air. Ricco stood at the edge of his bed just staring at her. He then moved, quickly, she was about to protest, since he left her no time to ogle because abruptly he fell to the floor, closed his mouth over her clit, and suckled.
FUCK! she thought and arched her back up high. He was amazing.
Then at the same time, he reached up and started pinching her nipples again, subjecting her to a sensory overload. He really was a freaking amazing lover. She hated the way she was writhing and twisting and whimpering but she couldn’t help it. She wanted to tell him to stop but if anyone knew how to tease, it was Ricco, and he was such a master at it that he robbed her of the ability to speak. He continued until she wasn’t only speechless but mindless, then her entire body clenched and jerked and it felt like she’d imploded as her release hit.
When she opened her eyes again, it was to find him gazing at her wearing the cockiest, self-satisfied expression. She just wanted to wipe it right off his face. Oh and she was going to.
She crooked her finger at him and instantly he crawled over her and meshed his lips with hers. His kiss was hungry and, again, possessive. If he hadn’t been off-guard, she doubted she’d have been able to do it but she actually managed to flip him onto his back.
He looked up at her as she straddled him, surprised but pleasantly surprised, if the grin on his face meant anything. But she didn’t impale herself on him as he was obviously expecting. No, because she had a point to prove: she could make him as mindless as he could make her.
She crawled backwards until her head was level with his cock, which was, she had to say, very impressive, still the sight made her heady. She licked the entire length of it from base to tip and then swirled her tongue around the head.
Ricco shuddered and groaned. She inhaled his scent and then winked at him as she closed her mouth over his dick.
Her hot, slick mouth is fucking amazing, he thought and leaned his head back to concentrate on not shooting his load too soon. God, he could lose himself in her for days.
As Bella took his cock further into her scorching hot mouth, he almost came right then, he’d never felt anything like it before. “Fuckin' A, baby, that feels so fucking good.”
It would’ve felt amazing having her deep-throat him purely because it was Bella, but this… Fuck, she is going to kill me with her teasing.
She sucked him deeper each time, gliding her hot tongue along the underside and occasionally grazing with her teeth. He was completely hypnotized by the sight of his cock disappearing into her luscious, talented mouth. She was sucking so hard that her cheeks hollowed.
“Shit, Bella.” Now she was playing with his balls at the same time. God, he loved the woman: this very crazy, strong, independent woman.
He glided his hand into her hair and began lifting his hips, surging up to meet her burning hot mouth. He was practically fucking it but she just smiled around his cock. Knowing he wasn’t going to last much longer, he pulled her head away.
“I need to be inside you again,” he growled. She wore a wicked smile on her beautiful face, like a sinful angel. “Come here.”
Slowly she slinked her way over him.
“You’re amazing, do you know that?” He grabbed her by her nape and pulled her face to his, taking her lips in a searing, greedy kiss. He clutched and molded those breasts that were, hands down, the most incredible pair he’d ever seen. You couldn’t look at them without wanting to bury your face between them, so he did exactly that. Then, unable to resist the taut buds, he closed his mouth over one, suckling and nibbling. He loved the husky moans she made when he sucked her breasts.
Already his cock was hard again just listening to the moans. He flicked her other nipple re
peatedly with his tongue, then plucked at it with his teeth. “You like that, don’t you?”
She moaned in response. Unable to wait any longer to be inside her again, he grabbed her by the hips and poised her above his dick. “Ride me, Bella.”
Even if his life had depended on it, he couldn’t have moved his eyes from the vision of her lowering herself onto his cock. One inch. Two inches. Then she stopped.
“Let go.” The second he dropped his hands from her hips she slammed down onto him, impaling herself to the core.
“Son of a bitch.” When another wicked smile split Bella’s lips, his cock seemed to harden even more, if that was possible.
Slowly she elevated herself until only the head remained inside her, and then she slammed down on him again.
“MINE,” he growled deeply.
She did it again, and then it seemed as though her restraint snapped and control became nothing more than a distant memory. She rode him hard and fast, slamming down on him over and over. Nothing had ever felt better.
Needing to touch her, he squeezed her breasts, tweaked and pinched her nipples. It wasn’t enough; he needed her lips again. Fisting a hand into her hair, he dragged her down and ravished her mouth as she continued to ride him so hard he thought his cock would snap.
Close to the edge now, he gripped her hips and began lifting to meet each of her downward thrusts. Seizing her gaze, he growled, “Come for me, baby. I want to hear you scream my name again.”
Her body tightened and jerked and her muscles spasmed around his cock as she screamed his name. Ricco slammed her down onto him one final time, holding her there as he exploded inside her. As his warm come continued to pump coating the walls of her tunnel, he growled, “Mine, forever.”
“Mine,” she said.
With his body then very replete, he sank into the mattress as she flopped down over him, weak against his chest. He curled his arms around her and stared into her eyes, growling, “A match made in heaven or hell, you pick.”
Chapter Twelve
Bella heard the pounding on the door and rolled over with a moan, what the hell? she thought and opened one eye. Ricco wasn’t here. She sat up and yelled to whoever was in the hallway, “Come in.”
Carmi walked in the door and smirked at her friend. “Well then, look at you slacking just ‘cause you got laid. Come on, princess, breakfast is served and the guys are going to make sure we have everything we need.”
“Why are you up here?” Bella grumbled and fell back against the pillows.
“Ricco got a call, and Maria said breakfast is ready. I took it upon myself to make sure sleeping beauty was awake.”
Bella groaned and threw a pillow at her friend. “Get out, I will be down in a few.”
Carmi jumped on the bed and Bella growled at her. “I will in a second. I wanted to let you know, my father called me last night. Apparently, there are things afoot in the Tomasi family and the Acciai family, figured you and Ricco would want to know.”
Bella sat up in bed and glared at her. “How would you know and not me, my father would have called me if something was going to happen.”
“Yeah well, there is a difference, I am not officially in the family fold as such. Since I take some outside jobs and also refuse to answer to anyone but you.” Carmi laughed.
“So why did he call?” Bella asked.
“To tell me it was time to stop fucking around and make sure that your father knows I am ready to take my place now,” Carmi said seriously.
“Take your place? What place? You will only…” Bella argued, not understanding what Carmi was saying.
“Apparently, there was a meeting last night,” Carmi said.
“Last night? But we just talked to them yesterday,” Bella snapped and then pulled on her robe, stood, and belted it. She pushed her hair out of her face and then walked to the dresser and pulled out the clothes she had already decided to wear today. She needed to feel comfortable: jeans, a tank, and a tie for her hair. Perfect.
“They had a meeting last night because apparently everyone is all a twitter about Ricco asking his parents to send your father a gift. Mr. Acciai apparently made a decision last night as well. With no heir apparent in sight, and him being all about being a father and stuff with his girls, he wants to make some changes while he is still young,” Carmi said.
“And your father told you all of this?” Bella asked. Carmi’s father was not the chatty type, like at all. She couldn’t see him calling for a heart to heart.
“Please, my father? Hell no, he called, I got some weird vibes by the questions he was asking and so I nosed around. It’s a good thing I made friends with some of the Lady Riders a few years ago, those bitches know everything that is going down,” Carmi said.
“The Lady Riders? When did you make those contacts? And why didn’t you tell me? After what went down in Mexico, I would have liked to have met them, especially Shady, she is a badass,” Bella said, putting her hands on her hips.
“Well, since I wasn’t supposed to be where I was at the time, and I only met Bob, the chick who was their road bitch, and I was sworn to secrecy, it didn’t have anything to do with the family.” Carmi shrugged.
“Really? Bitch, who else have you met?” Bella snapped as she grabbed her clothes and walked into the bathroom.
“Okay seriously, listen to what I am saying here. I will totally introduce you if you want later. I called Bob,” Carmi said.
“Fine, whatever, invite them to the casino, now, what is the word?” Bella said, pulling on her clothes and then brushing her long hair, braiding it all while Carmi talked.
“Okay, so Mr. Acciai is more than happy to take a backseat right now, he wants to focus on his children and wife, since they are all married and talking about kids and shit. So he wants someone to take more responsibility and there has been talk about the National Syndicate who has faded in the past few years, wanting both Acciai and your father as the heads,” Carmi said and Bella’s eyes widened. She pulled open the door and looked at her friend.
“The National?” she whispered and Carmi nodded.
“Yep, they are sick of some of the younger people suddenly becoming heads of families and fucking shit up. There are too many mistakes being made, which had brought the Feds nosing around again. Don Pedirmo from Sicily has called for action here. Either we straighten shit out, or he is sending someone over to deal with the loose cannons. So, your father and Acciai last night, decided now would be the perfect time for them to ascend to the National and take over the overseeing of the idiots, while still being the head of the family, just not the Don of either family.”
“Impossible,” Bella whispered and Carmi smirked.
“Not according to Bob, she and the others were told by both Treat and Nike who of course belong to Acciai, they are his daughters. Anyway, they were over for dinner three days ago when it was talked about. They said at the time, Mr. Acciai was talking like it was a foregone conclusion,” Carmi said. “Anywho, so last night, apparently your father, my father, Acciai, and Ricco’s father had a sit down.”
“A sit down? Are you fucking kidding me?” Bella said and Carmi shook her head.
“Yep, I am telling you it was like monumental,” Carmi said. “So anyways, they talked, and then my father called me out of the blue and asked if I was ready to take my place? I was like, my place? My place is with Bella; I don’t want to do anything else. Which pissed off my father you know.”
“Oh my God, we are gossiping,” Bella said and put a hand to her mouth. “We don’t gossip, like ever.”
“Focus,” Carmi snapped and Bella shook her head.
“No, seriously, think about it. Four days ago I was feared, I was a force to be reckoned with, people came to me with the secrets, they didn’t hide shit from me. Now look, I have sex with Ricco, and suddenly I am a giggling gossiping schoolgirl who is going to be known as Ricco’s girlfriend. Not Bella Tomasi, the head of the Tomasi family. Ugh,” Bella snapped then she walked to the
dresser and pulled out her sidearm and cocked it. “This is so not happening.”
“Dude, chill the fuck out and let me finish,” Carmi snapped and grabbed her gun out of her hands.
Bella sighed and waved her hand. She was so going to kill someone though; this was not acceptable.
“Okay, so my father called me a moron and said I would be working for you. But it was time for me to stop taking the side jobs. I laughed and said, ‘then take what place. I am where I want to be,’” Carmi said.
Bella nodded and motioned for her to hurry up, this was dragging out too long, she had someone to shoot. This was so not cool, none of it. Overnight she had suddenly become obsolete.
“Cool it, he said I had to move up to be your Underboss, and I needed to make sure, the Capos I wanted, were ready as well. I asked why? He said because the ones we have now, are following your father to fill in the positions of the Nationals because apparently Don Pedirmo wants the whole thing revamped, whoever the leader was is totally dead. So your father and Acciai are going to fill the positions with men they trust, who are ready to retire as well, which let’s face it, is like half of them.”
“Underboss?” Bella whispered. “I am the Underboss.”
“Oh my God, duh, no, you and Ricco are going to be named as the bosses of the Acciai family and the Tomasi family and when you get married, the families will be joined. It will be the most powerful joining since, well, since fuck I don’t know since whenever,” Carmi said.
Bella took a deep breath, she looked at her best friend and then said, “Married?”
“Woman, focus on me for a second. I am gonna be an Underboss, how fucking cool is that?” Carmi said with a huge evil grin. “I get to boss those fuckers around; you know how much I love to do that. I mean, I am going to be the first woman Underboss. I should totally make sure I get my kills documented, you know for Wikipedia, I don’t want them to mess it up.”
