With a loud cry, she bursts, her body tensing and twisting.
She gets so tight I don't know how to think again. I slam into her harder, jostling our bodies.
I try to hold it off, try to extend the pleasure but it's impossible.
Rutting into her like a wild beast, I yell out a string of choice words as I still, my orgasm ripping me apart.

I wake up a short while later to find Isabella's body twisted with mine. Her head is on my chest and my hand cups one large, smooth ass.
Although I'd want nothing else but to go back to sleep, knowing that she's safe in my hands, I know that her being unsafe is first and foremost my fault.
I could never regret claiming her as mine, but I’ve been so caught up thinking about her that I’d forgotten she would need protection.
We don’t even need to walk through the streets holding hands. The fact that I made everyone leave us alone yesterday, and still went ahead to send her flowers, is enough proof to anybody that Mr. Amaro is interested.
Anyone who has a vendetta against me, and there is a lot of them, know that my brother and the rest of my family are well protected. Isabella was the only vulnerable person.
Well, never again.
Working carefully so as not to wake her up, I slide out of bed, put on my clothes and head to my study not too far from my room to meet some people waiting outside the door.
Josh, the one who had brought Isabella safely to me, is there with my other men and I invite them in.
"Whose men were they?" I ask without preamble. They know why they are here.
"The men refused to talk, Don," Josh replied, his jaw hard. "Stupid fools spat in our faces and asked us to do our worst."
Mhmm. They never talk.
"You know who I think it is," I say. "Did you check them out?"
Everyone in the Devil's Hand knows that we have underlying issues with the Black Heart.
Assante is a schemer and I don't doubt that he's behind all this.
Josh nods, "Yes Don. It isn't the Black Heart for sure."
My eyebrows furrow. "How can you be so sure?"
He hands over a piece of paper to me. "There's a new Chief in town and he's sniffing really hard around them. All members and soldiers from the Black Heart, have been called back. Their plan is to lie low until Assante can get right with the chief."
The piece of paper is proof that they were all recalled and Assante is not in the position to fight turf wars right now.
"So who—"
I'm cut off by the door to my study opening up.
My eyes almost fall out of their sockets as Isabella trudges in, dressed in nothing but my shirt.
Holy shit.
Chapter Four
Isabella
I should have got dressed. But why would I? I wasn’t expecting visitors at this time of night.
