“Could be anywhere, really. I was just thinking West Coast. Are there any states you’ve always wanted to live in?”
“What are you talking about? Are you saying you want to leave Bover City?”
“You’releaving Bover City. I’m staying here and handling business.”
My face falls. “I’m not leaving. I’m staying with you.” I reach for his hand, but he pulls it away.
“It isn’t safe for you here. I’m a target in my own fucking territory. You’re getting on a plane tomorrow and leaving the state.”
“Fuck that. If it isn’t safe for me, it isn’t safe for you.”
His face twitches, but he keeps his expression blank. “I… can’t.”
“Can’t what?” I demand.
“I can’t have you here. I can’t lose you. I can’t have—” He cuts himself off. “I can’t put you in danger.”
“If it’s really so dangerous, why don’t you seem scared?”
“I don’t get scared. Not anymore. Not for myself.”
I roll my eyes. “Okay, Mr. Edgy.”
His voice hardens. “I didn’t choose this, Ava. I was made this way. You grow up the way I did, the softness gets beaten out of you pretty quick.”
I take a step closer to him, and he doesn’t step back. “So let me stay with you. You can be hard with everyone else, and soft with me.”
His face twitches again, and he can’t hide the pain behind his eyes. “You think I don’t already do that? You are my soft spot, Ave. The only soft spot that I have. That’s why I can’t have you here.”
I step forward again, into arms’ reach, and Alessandro reaches out to hold me as though he can’t help himself. I breathe against his chest, listening to his heart thump.
“Is the apartment safe?” I ask.
He nods. “It’s a rich neighborhood with a solid police presence, and building security is top-notch. They won’t be able to hit me at home.”
“So I’ll stay in the apartment. You can handle what you need to handle, and I’ll be your little toy waiting for you at home.”
He stiffens, and I can tell he’s thinking about it. I wait for his reply, hoping he’ll bite on the sexual offer even if my emotional plea falls flat. I don’t want to leave. I want to be at home with my husband. Not alone in some sad hotel room in Oregon.
“Okay,” Alessandro says finally. “You’ll be my little toy at home. You will submit to me in every way that I expect. And you will not leave this penthouse until I say. Is that understood?”
“Yes,” I tell him, my body responding to our closeness, the adrenaline, the general concept of being his toy. “Sir.”
His eyes flash as his hands move lower, cupping my ass. “Good girl. When you’ve gotten settled, wait for me in the bedroom. I’m going to fuck all three of your holes tonight. And I’m not going to be gentle.”

Alessandro
For a while, I’m able to lose myself in Ava. I strip her naked, put her on her knees, fuck her perfect little mouth until I can’t bear it anymore. Then I climb on top of her on the bed, rail the fuck out of her cunt, and leave my cum dripping out of her ass.
She wants to cuddle after that, and reluctantly, I curl up next to her. All I can think about is thatbang, the exploding car. What if she’d been inside it? She looks so small snuggled up against me, so soft and delicate.
It would be so easy for someone to take her away from me.
