Me. He was risking everything for me. Beckett…

“Yeah… it’s too bad she’s using me because I’m pretty sure she fucking hates me.”

Did I? The hard knot in my chest dissolved. I stepped to one side, turning the knob.

“Look, Costa’s setting up a war between the families. It’s going to be a bloodbath.”

He turned as I opened the door, then leaned against the counter, arching a brow as I approached. His gaze raked my body, lingering on my thighs.

“He was going to make it look like someone from the Bianchi family killed Celestina Anastasi. You know her brothers wouldn’t stop until they saw every Bianchi dead.”

I stepped in front of him, bringing his gaze to mine as he continued his conversation. I planned to see what kind of concentration he could muster as I dropped to my knees.

“I take it this is the woman you’ve gone against him for?” I heard the voice of someone he referred to as Tino through the phone.

“Yes.” Beckett’s voice faltered as I wrapped my lips around his shaft. I smirked when he grunted, trying to keep from moaning into the phone. As my mouth slowly moved against his cock, I heard him whisper my name. “Celestina.”

Tino mistook that the slip of my name was directed at him. “Yeah, you said that. Look, I’m already in Vegas. I have a meeting with Massimo in thirty minutes to discuss a shipment of weapons. I’ll work on them. Think you can sit tight until then?”

“Goddamn.” Beckett bit down on his lip, thrusting his hips into my face. Glancing up from hooded eyes, I watched as he forced himself to take a deep breath and speak. I giggled around his shaft when I heard his voice crack. “I don’t know.”

“What do you mean you don’t know? It’s a yes or no answer. What the fuck is wrong with you?” Tino sounded annoyed at Beckett’s strained words, but it didn’t stop me from taking him all the way to the back of my throat.

Beckett grabbed my hair, holding me still on his cock. I pressed my tongue against the pulsing vein as he tried to continue his conversation with some kind of decorum.

“Sorry. I don’t know. That’s why I’m calling you. I’m pretty sure he’s going to send someone here to kill me.”

I moaned loudly against his cock, certain Tino could hear me through the line. The vibration of my lips along his steel-hard shaft made it pulse in my mouth, and I knew he was seconds away from losing his shit.

“Fuck.” He shook his head, relenting to the torture I was inflicting. “Figure it out and call me later.”

Beckett disconnected and threw the phone to the table. Yanking me to my feet, he lifted me from the floor as he took two steps to the kitchen table, where he laid me. Holding my legs wide, Beckett rammed himself into me.

“That was a naughty thing to do.” He thrusted into me with such force, the table slid across the hardwood floor, the legs scraping against the boards.

“That mouth of yours felt fucking good wrapped around my dick. Did you like having my cock fill you like that?” Beckett pushed his shaft inside me, grinding against my clit.

“God, yes.”

He leaned forward as he shoved my shirt up, exposing my breasts. His mouth covered my nipple as he bit my flesh. I tensed under him as my pussy tightened around his cock. He lost all sense of control and pounded into me like a madman. Beckett grunted as his warm cum filled my core, and I screamed out his name.

“Beckett!”

He leaned forward and rested his forehead against mine.

My breath coming out in pants, I wrapped my arms around his neck and whispered my confession against his ear.

“I don’t hate you… I—”

Pressing his finger to my lips, he silenced my words.

“Don’t get attached, Celestina. I’m not a man who can give you anything more than this.”

My gaze locked onto his as I struggled to form words. His cell rang on the counter, ending the conversation about what was happening between us. He fastened his pants, then tugged me off the table. I’d barely recovered from the earth-shattering orgasm he gave me when he hurried me out of the kitchen.

“You’ve fucked up.” A man’s voice came through the line. “Obviously, Manuel knew you were going back on your word. I had Kassy hack into the satellite near your place. He has men already on your property, Beckett.”

One of his motion sensors went off, confirming someone was already there.
