πππππππVANESSAThe hand James had on my waist began to travel down and over my hip, making its way down my thigh. I was so overwhelmed by the sensation that I struggled to breathe normally. "Tell me you remember when you wrapped your legs around me, permitting me to fuck you bare. When I impaled you with my cock and you begged me to keep still while your body adapted to the feeling of having a real man inside you." God, I remember. I remembered all of it. I remembered how my body was on the edge of bursting into flames. How the pain and the pleasure mixed into the most intense decadence my body had ever experienced and threatened to burn me into embers of desire. He leaned closer, his spicy scent giving life to all those memories. "Tell me you remember coming around my cock. Tell me you remember how I pulsed my orgasm all over your warm, sweaty skin." Oh, sweet baby Jesus. There was no way in hell I could have stopped myself. I jerked forward and pressed my lips ha
πππππJAMESI swept my tongue hard and fast through her mouth before finally withdrawing my hand from between her legs and jumping out of the car. I opened her door. "Get out and make sure you get your ass in my apartment within the next ten seconds." And, true as fuck, we were in my apartment within ten seconds. Clothes were ripped and torn and tossed everywhere while we desperately tried to keep our mouths glued together. Our need for each other was so damn strong, that I could feel it in every bone of my body, pulsing, growing, aching like a motherfucker. "I want you in my bed, princess," I whispered when we were both finally naked and ready. She yelped when I swept her into my arms and carried her down the hall. Having her skin against mine felt so right, all I could think about was how I'd be able to keep her against me, with me, for-fucking-ever. The second I put her down on her feet, she glanced at the wallβa very bare wall. I knew what she was looking for, and
πππππ JAMES"Vanessa," I heard myself moan as I sped up, going as deep as possible, but still not taking my eyes off hers. "I want to come inside you. I need to make you mine in every way." It was the plea of a desperate man, trying my best to mark her, to claim her in every goddamn way possible. If I could tie her to me and never let go, I would. But this was the closest I'd ever get to owning her completely. A tear slipped down the side of her face, and she placed her palms on my cheeks, her gaze on mine. "Yes," she replied before pulling me down and pressing her mouth against mine. The warmth of her mouth, the heat of her body, and the slickness of her orgasm coating every inch of me were enough to send me to the motherfucking peak of the most intense release I had ever had in my entire goddamn life. For the first time, I knew what it felt like to be alive, to be connected to someone. With my cock as deep as it could go, I came inside herβhard. The severity, the strong
πππππ JAMESWhat the fuck? "No," Vanessa breathed out, her fear echoing in her voice. "What the fuck are you talking about, Morello?" I balled my fists, trying my best to remain calm. If I learned anything during my time in the force, it was that anger didn't help one fucking bit when you were on the receiving end of a gun. "She didn't tell you?" He raised his eyebrows in surprise. "She's mine, Detective. I claimed her four years ago when she spread her legs for me with a single snap of my fingers." Vanessa gasped, and tears started to stream down her face, her entire body shaking. "Please stop, Enzo." I stepped forward. "Take your hands off her, or I swear to God I will kill you." "Tsk, tsk, tsk. A cop shouldn't go around tossing threats freely. You could get into a lot of trouble for that." "And aiming a gun at someone's head? You can go to prison for that." He laughed maniacally. "Who, me? No. I assure you, Detective, I have every avenue covered when it comes
πππππππVANESSAEnzo pulled his hand from between my legs, but my body remained rigid. With a grin on his face, he brought his finger up to his nose, inhaling deeply. I fought to keep myself from gagging at the sight. "You will marry me, Vanessa. You will give me what I've always wanted, and that's you on your knees at my feetβ¦every goddamn day for the rest of your life." More chills wracked my body. I felt physically ill, and the need to vomit was almost uncontrollable. Maybe I should throw up. Maybe if I did I would wake up from this nightmare.With all the strength I had left in me, I grounded out, "I'll do no such thing, Enzo. There is no way in hell you can make me marry you." "Oh, I can." He pulled his phone from his jacket pocket, flipped over the screen, and held it in front of my face. When the video started playing, I gasped and placed my hand in front of my mouth. I had to swallow back the bile that was pushing up my throat as I watched the video he and h
πππππ JAMESI hunched over and placed my hands on my knees, trying to catch my breath. "Enzo. He took her." Daniel leaped forward and grabbed me by the collar, his eyes shooting fiery daggers right at my forehead. "Where the fuck is she?" "I told you. Enzo took her. That's why I'm here." "What do you mean, he took her?" I jerked his hands away from my collar. "Just what I said. We were in front of my apartment, and he appeared out of fucking nowhere, shoved her into the back of a car, and left." Daniel stepped back. "What was she doing with you in front of your apartment?" I kept my eyes on him, knowing all too well I was about to fucking throw myself to the wolves. Yeah, I went there. "She was with me." His dark eyebrows drew together. "Doing what?" Silence. The heaviest goddamn silence surrounded us, and the second Daniel realized my not replying was his answer, he dropped the longest string of f-bombs I'd heard in a while. "Goddammit!" He crouched with his
πππππππ VANESSAMy hand was on my burning cheek as I righted myself, biting back my tears. Enzo might hit me, but he would never break me. "Did you show me any respect the night you defiled my body?" He raised his eyebrows. "Defiled? Oh, my dear Vanessa, if I remember correctly, you loved everything I did to your body that night. Would you like me to show you the little homemade video again? How your face lit up when I gave you your very first orgasm with my cock buried inside that sweet little pussy of yours?" The wry, wolfish grin on his face made my stomach turn, and I realized it didn't matter what I said or did. I was stuck here, and there was no way Enzo was going to let me go. For years, the war between us and the Morellos had been raging, and I was now the ultimate weapon Enzo intended to use in destroying my familyβ¦my father. He knew I would never allow him to show that tape to anyone. It would kill my father to see images of his only daughter willingly being fuck
πππππJAMES"So, there is a thing between you and our little sister." Antonio wasn't asking. Under normal circumstances, I'd probably try to deny it, knowing I risked getting my balls cut off. But these weren't normal circumstances, and I cared more about Vanessa than keeping my balls attached to my body. Yeah, pussy-whipped did not even begin to cover it. "Listen, man," I started, not backing down an inch, "I know you have your rules and whatnot, but yeah, there is something between me and Vanessa, and I don't care if you approve or not. It's happening. And nothing, and I mean nothing, will stop me from finding her. Not you or your goddamn rules." Both brothers stared at me, not saying a word. For the first time in my career, my detective instincts failed me, because I had no fucking clue what to expect from them next. I glanced at Antonio. "And as your brother said earlier, let's find Vanessa first, then we can kill each other, okay?" No answer. "Good. Now that we u
