“Such a good girl. Swallow me down, Nova.”

She shivers as she does, her eyes wide with lust and confusion. She likes what I do to her. She just doesn’t understand why.

I reach down and lift her to her feet. I cup her jaw and lean in for a kiss, showing her my appreciation. I taste the salt of her tears and the tangy sweetness of my cum before I pull away and press my forehead against hers.

“In case you still don’t get it, I’ll never resent you for getting rid of my father or brother. The only time I’ll be pissed is if you try to keep yourself from me.”

“Okay,” she says gently, her voice hoarse.

“Good. Now take a shower. I packed a bag for you this morning.It’s in my car. I’ll go grab it and bring it up, then lay some clothes out on the bed for you. Come find me when you’re done.”

I wait for her to nod before I press a kiss to her temple. I leave her and head into the bedroom.

I spot the bag on the bed and realize someone’s already beaten me to it. I had Turner put everything away for us at home, so it was easy to find what I needed this morning. I take out a yellow sundress that’s fitted at the top and flares from the waist to the knee. It’s strapless, like the dress I just tore from her, and will display her bruises nicely.

I lay it on the bed before grabbing a pair of black leather ankle boots and a black leather jacket. As much as I like the innocent look the dress gives off, I still want Nova to feel like herself. A little sweet, a little badass.

At the bottom of the bag, I find another strapless white bra and a matching pair of underwear. I lay them on the bed before quickly changing into clean clothes myself and make my way downstairs. I wash my face and hands in the kitchen sink before patting my skin dry with a hand towel. Tossing it onto the counter, I walk back to the den.

The guys are still there when I enter. Now, though, instead of one dead body, there are two. The scene has been set. Nino is lying on the floor across from my father with a gun in his hand and a hole in his chest.

“That was quick.”

“You didn’t hear anything?” Conner asks, surprised.

“All the rooms are soundproof.”

“Might be something you want to look into.”

“No. I wouldn’t risk my wife being attacked and me not being able to hear her scream.”

He nods. “Right.”

“My father had this place soundproofed, so all his secrets stayed within these walls. Each deal he made, each strike to his wife or punishment dealt to his kids, all took place without anyone knowing.”

“He had it soundproofed to hide his shame.”

I look at Conner. “I’m not ashamed of how I treat my wife. I like making her scream.”

I turn and walk out, heading for my father’s office. I sit down and go through his drawers, finding a couple of ledgers and what looks like a journal. I’ll have to go through that later when I have more time. I check my father’s schedule for the week and see he has a meeting on Friday with the other families’ representatives. I’m guessing that’s to welcome Aldo as the new don now that Vigo is too weak to hide shit. That gives me time to get everything together.

Taking the ledgers and journal, I make my way out of the office and find Veck heading my way.

“Lock up. Make sure the cameras are wiped and set the security system so we know when someone enters.” I look at my watch. “Which should be Julia in two hours to start cooking dinner. She’s been here for twenty years. She knows the deal. When she discovers the bodies, she won’t call the police. She’ll call me.”

“Alright. Text me when she calls, and we’ll head over to begin investigating,” he smirks.

I open my mouth to agree when Nova appears at the top of the stairs. “Fuck me.”

Veck laughs, slapping me on the back as Nova walks down the stairs toward me.

“What is with that look on your face?” she questions, offering a brief smile to Veck before he nods and walks away.

“You are so fucking beautiful.”

She touches the bruises on her face, but I reach up and skim my thumb over her cheek.

“If you think these detract from your beauty, you’re wrong. They remind me how strong you are.” I lean in closer. “That being said, this is the last fucking time another man will bruise what’s mine. I am the only one who gets to mark your skin.”
