Struggling for composure, I catch my breathand tell him, “I’m showering.”

“I’ll join you,” he decides, shootingout of bed at the same time as me.

“I—”

“Shh.” He drives in for a sensualkiss, stopping any protest.

Alessandro ushers me into the bathroomand inside the enclosed shower, turning on the cool water.

I tremble until it warms up a tad.

He starts kissing me again, this timemore roughly.

“Ah!” I yelp when he hoists me off myfeet, wraps my legs around him, and presses me against the stone wall.

Alessandro slides his thickness intome with ease.

My pussy always seems to be wet forthe man, just as his cock is always stiff for me.

Head falling back against the wall, I gasphis name over and over as he fucks me hard. It’s not long until I’m shatteringfrom the ecstatic release. Alessandro breaks apart soon after, unloading hissemen inside me.

“You keep fucking me raw,” I breatheout, still winded from the orgasm.

He smirks and growls at the side of myhead. “It’s the only way I’ll fuck you, Tiana. Perhaps it’ll help to knowyou’re the first woman I’ve fucked without condoms.”

“It’s reckless.” I set my feet on theground and press my palms at his chest, easing him back from me. “I still don’tknow—”

“You do know.” He crushes my mouth foranother heated kiss, and all doubt flies out of my head again.

God. This man is driving me insane.

He keeps me doped up on thisintoxicating hunger, that I’m starting to let go of what life was like beforehim.

Sofia angles her head and gives us asly smile when we enter the kitchen.

“Good morning,” she greets, watching usover the mug as she drinks her coffee. “Breakfast is ready.”

Alessandro kisses her cheek and pourshimself a cup.

“What happened yesterday?” she asks.“I noticed we lost more men.”

I look at Alessandro.

He harrumphs and leans against thecounter. “Zeno is farmore stealthythan I thought.”

Sofia scowls. “There’s another tradetonight. We cannot afford to lose those goods.”

“I know, Mother.” Alessandro hangs hishead, staring at his coffee.

Buzzing draws our focus to the phoneon the island.

Sofia clears her throat beforeanswering. “Ciao?” Her face loses color within seconds, and she touches herheart. “Sì.Fammisaperesubito.” She ends the call.

The blatant dread in her appearance isconcerning.

Alessandro sets his mug on the counterand draws closer to his mother. “What is it?”

Sofia flits her gaze around, wringingher hands.
