“I can’t. You’re my family. The only family I have left.”

Emotion etched his features. “I know. It’s the same for me.”

He brought his hands up and wrapped them around me, pulling me down to him.

“We’ll do this right, I swear it to you. We won’t fall.”

I nodded against him, burying my face in his warmth as I shielded my own emotion.

I drew almost all the way out, then slammed back inside him, rocking us both from the force of it and earning a delicious growl from him.

I didn’t stop then, all of it, all this shit taking me over, and then I was jack hammering into him, with Milo fucking back against me, matching my pace with all that powerhouse energy and stamina of his. More than that, all that fucking fiery passion that he only ever unleashed with me.

“Fuck,” I grunted, shocks of ecstasy shooting along my dick and taking my whole body right along with it.

“Yeah… ungh… Julian… I’m coming… fucking coming for you.”

In the next moment, his whole body lurched, his thighs shaking, and he spurted all over our abs.

I followed him over the edge with a snarl, filling him with my hot cum.

He tightened his hold on me before I could move to pull out or do anything. “Not yet,” he panted at my ear. “Just stay with me for a little while. I need to feel you all over me.”

I smiled against him. “Right back at you.”

War was coming and moments like this needed to be savored.

It was comfort and solace, as much as it was a reminder of what we were fighting for.

We weren’t like the three families.

It wasn’t just about power and money to us.

It was about each other, what we shared, what we’d built between us.

And it would always stand above all the rest.

“Wake up, Caterina. Time to get to work.”

The voice blasted through my subconscious, and my eyes snapped open.

“That’s it.”

I jolted as the voice sounded again.

Right next to me.

Blinking hard and trying to get my bearings after just waking up, and extremely groggily at that, it took me a moment to realize that it was coming from my tablet resting on its stand right next to me on my bed.

Nico was there on the screen, smirking at me.

“Fuck,” I choked.

“Good morning to you as well.”
