Chapter-13

BRIAN

I put her down on the bed gently, not leaving her lips for a second. Her hands wrapped around my neck, pulling me down as we devoured each other's mouths as if we had been hungry for years.

My pants were tenting up already from the hard-on I was sporting, and a jolt of electricity passed through me when my hardness brushed against her core.

I had work to do. We had very less time but I couldn't seem to stop myself. My hand slid down her neck and traced the outline of her breast from over her crop top.

Sliding my fingers under the hem, I prepared myself to be stopped. My fingers came in contact with her erect bud and she arched her back with a soft moan.

I wanted her to stop me so that I could get back to work, but she didn't. A warmth filled my chest and happiness tickled my heart like a feather.

Her hands roamed over my back from under my t-shirt. Without waiting any more, I tugged the hem of her top before pulling it up and tossing it aside. Our lips parted, hers were swollen, slightly red and glistening.

"Sexy."

We were breathing heavily when my gaze shifted from her lips to her breasts, which were now covered only with a lace bra. Her hooded eyes matched the intensity of my desire.

I pushed her bra up and her breasts sprung free. I took a minute to admire the supple breasts before taking one nipple in my mouth and grabbing the other breast in my hand.

"Oh my god. Brian."

She arched her back even more rubbed her core against my hardness. The feeling was almost maddening as we dry-humped while I teased her nipples.

"I love you, Adie." The words rolled out of my lips while I was biting her nipple and her nails dug into my skin.

My hand trailed down her smooth and flat stomach, stopping at the waistband band of her jeans when she started tugging my t-shirt up.

"Fuck me."

As she worked on my t-shirt, I lifted my body a little so that she could remove it. I was about to raise my hands when my phone rang, pulling us out of the trance we were in.

She stopped, and our eyes met. Her eyes widened, and I sat up on my knees, trapping her between my legs. She lifted her body with a jolt, her palms pressed against the mattress and her gaze darting everywhere but me.

I backed away slowly and unwillingly, trying to even out my breathing before taking the call.

"Yes."

I gulped, restraining myself from breathing too loud while watching her pull her bra down hastily before climbing off the bed.

"Capo, where are you?" Alex's panic-filled voice came in through the earpiece.

"I am fine. Where are you?"

"I was inside with the old man but you were taking so long. I came down to check and didn't find you. So, I thought that woman attempted something."

"Alex. Do you think a woman can attempt something on me and I won't be able to protect myself? Do you doubt the abilities of your capo?"

She put on her top before glaring at me, her face flustered and red, her brown hair a complete mess. But it made her look a hundred times sexier.

"No. Sorry, Capo."

"Go and stay with the oldie. I'll be back with the woman on our side. Don't come out unless I ask you to."

"Okay."

I didn't bother ending the call before climbing off the bed and taking long strides towards my sexy woman, who was now trying to untangle her hair. My gaze trailed down her body and noticed her legs tightly squeezed as she stood before her dresser.

My lips curled into a smirk as I stood behind her. She was about to move away when I grabbed her elbow and pulled her back against me. She started to struggle again.

"Do you know who is Rosario?" I whispered the question near her ear, while my hand went around her waist and rested on her bare stomach.

She stopped struggling and looked up in a snap.

"How do you know him?"

"Answer me." I slid the other hand inside the waistband of her jeans and she took a sharp breath.

"Brian."

"Answer me, if you want this." I gently massaged her clit from outside the thin fabric of her panty and she squeezed her legs tighter.

Biting her bottom lip, she tried to keep herself from moaning while her eyes fluttered.

"Yes."

"Who's he?"

"A businessman."

"Businessman? A plain, clean businessman?" I cocked an eyebrow as I looked at her through the mirror.

I slid the fabric away a little and touched the lip, gently caressing it up and down and sensed her hips twitch. She was trying not to rub against my finger.

She gulped before answering,

"Not clean, maybe. But, not a criminal at least."

I couldn't help but laugh, arching my head back, but I still gave her what I promised. I slid the fabric away completely and pinched her clit, making her gasp.

She rested her head on my chest and closed her eyes.

"Did I say something funny?" she asked airily.

"Oh yes, darling. Very funny."

"Don't play with me."

"I am not. I don't have that much time. So, listen to me carefully." I pushed a finger inside her, earning a loud moan, and her legs parted to accommodate my hand.

"Rosario belongs to Cosa Nostra just like my boss. Rosario Salvatore is the boss of Salvatore crime family." Her eyes opened wide as she looked at me through the mirror.

"So basically, you broke up with me because I work for a crime family of Cosa Nostra while you went ahead and worked for another crime family of the same Cosa Nostra. How ironic, isn't it?"

My finger was moving in and out of her fast, making a wet sound while her fingers clenched around my hand that was resting on her stomach. Her walls clamped down on my finger as her core clenched and unclenched, coating my finger with her fluid.

"Oh God. Faster. Faster, please."

I increased my pace and her body went stiff. I stopped before pulling out.

"What the…" she hissed, annoyed.

I moved away and she turned around with a glare.

"Why did you start if you weren't gonna finish?" she shouted, looking cute as ever.

I slid the finger that was inside her into my mouth and sucked it clean, keeping my unwavering gaze on her, and she gulped, red tint crept up her cheeks.

"You taste as good as I remember." I walked up to her and held her chin up before kissing her deeply.

When I moved away, her eyes were hooded again, looking like she wanted more.

"I need your help."

"What help?"

"Rosario brought home a woman today, right?"

She looked at me with a frown.

"How do you know?"

"Because she's my boss' girlfriend." I walked to the bed and sat on the edge before adjusting my pants, which were still tenting up at my crotch.

She gasped.

"You're lying. She is Rosario's girlfriend."

"So, you can trust anyone but not me? Even after I told you Rosario's reality?"

She shook her head while her gaze darted around, apparently deciding what to say.

"If you're telling the truth, then why is she not trying to escape?"

"Because she made a deal with Rosario to save someone else."

The gears turned in her head as she took time to let my words sink in and I waited patiently.

"Explain please," she finally spoke after a minute.

"Boss had to leave her alone and travel to New York because we had an emergency there. He had asked me to make sure our men were always around her until he came back. But…" I ran my fingers through my hair as the feeling of regret tugged at my heart.

"I was never in favour of their relationship. She was Rosario's girlfriend when she was eighteen, and Rosario is our biggest enemy. I didn't want my boss to get involved with someone like her and stray from his ultimate goal. He is defying his mother. So I thought, I'll let her be alone so that Rosario can have his chance."

"How could you do that? Love can make us sacrifice anything and that doesn't mean the person is wrong."

I raised an eyebrow.

"Really? Then, what did you sacrifice for me? Or are you saying you never loved me?"

Her face contorted into an angry grimace, as she ground her teeth and her balled her hands.

"How can you say that? Dd you sacrifice anything for me? You couldn't even sacrifice your job and you expect me to sacrifice my bond with my father!"

Irritation bubbled inside me as I was hardly restraining myself from snapping at her. I shot up from the bed and in a flash, I was in front of her. She took a few steps back and her back hit the wall.

I pointed a finger at her face and she glared in defiance.

"I grew up knowing how to be a capo. I don't know how to do anything else. This is my life. How could you expect me to leave the only thing I knew my whole life? Then what? Once you are in our world, there is no escape, unless you die." I slammed my hand on the wall beside her head, trying to control the rage and she flinched.

"And my father is the only person I have known ever since I was born. How can you expect me to leave him?"

I let out a sarcastic chuckle and shook my head.

"If he loves you truly, he'll always have your back. Just how my boss' mother didn't leave him. She might be upset with him but she will always have his back."

Her eyes widened but before she could speak more, I interrupted.

"Stop. You have made up your mind that I am not worth it. So let's leave it at that. We have to help a couple who truly love each other, unlike us." That seemed to have hit a nerve as she pressed her lips in a thin line.

"At first, I thought he'll get bored of Jane after some time. I didn't think his feelings were so serious. But what I saw yesterday, proved me wrong. There was a madness in his eyes when he found out that Jane had been taken. He was about to kill me because I called her Rosario's whore. His finger was just a twitch away from pressing the trigger on my head."

Her eyebrows met, her expression softened as her gaze travelled from my head to my chest.

"And that was the moment I realised how important Jane is to him. Our bond is deeper than blood brothers. He can never harm me, but for Jane, he was ready to kill me. So, I am going to rectify my mistake today."

She let out a long and sharp breath and rubbed her hands over her face.

"Okay. What do you want me to do?"
