“Prove it. Get rid of the contracts. Burn them. Smash them. Shred them. Delete them if there’s any digital footprints. Prove it to me. Make me believe you.” I speak so low; I almost don’t think he hears me.

“Done. I will get to the bottom of whatever my father has done and I will make it right by you. Are you one hundred percent positive he is the one who planned your kidnapping? That is the implication here, right? I know how cheated he felt when your mother got pregnant and left. He’s never let it go. He made my own mother feel insignificant until her dying breath. He’s vindictive and manipulative for sure, but why kidnap you and leave the situation open ended with the potential for you to return at some point. That isn’t exactly the mob mentality. It isn’t the way my father works. He doesn’t leave loose ends. It also doesn’t make much sense when he could’ve left you alone, seeing as he already knew I was conceived by his mistress. It would have made more sense to do what you’ve accused me of and make me manipulate the situation so we ended up together if his only goal was for the DeLuca line to become the head of the mafia. Not to mention he’s worked with your grandfather for many years. There must be something we are missing.”

Huh, and isn’t that exactly what I had thought? But what are the missing variables? I know my nonno isn’t a dumb man. He’s been doing this too long to not have noticed such big missing pieces to the puzzle. I mean, it’s pretty much all over now anyway since I’m back. There’s not much else to be done to take my place.

“From what I understand, I wasn’t supposed to live this long. After the abduction, I was supposed to have been killed but the woman who was responsible for me ended up keeping me alive and raised me to believe I was her own daughter. Your father has been attempting to renegotiate the contracts so that he can still marry my mother for years according to my family. Do with that info what you will but I don’t know how you expect me to trust you. If you want the truth, then yes, I am obviously attracted to you and the guys. But like I said, I don’t intend to spend my life with anyone. Growing up the way I did, having lived through an abduction, gang violence and drug deals in my house. Then there were always the men who prey on little girls.. Look, it just doesn’t leave much to be desired when looking towards my future. I’m a virgin and I’m lucky to have stayed that way. No, fuck that. Ifoughtto stay that way. I don’t feel the need to let you, the king among boys, take that from me for the sole purpose of marking your territory. I think this was a mistake. It’s time for me to go home and enjoy time with my family.” I take a step back, with thoughts of leaving only for Matteo to push me into the lockers and cage me in.

“No.” He says just as he bends down and takes full advantage of my mouth.

He bites my lower lip and I cave too easily, opening my mouth for him, loving the way he devours me wholly. I feel him unsnap my bra and then push down my panties before lifting me up off the ground. My brain can’t be working because my legs wrap around his waist as my arms wrap around his neck without consent from my brain, my body just takes over. Next thing I know we’ve moved out of the locker room and I feel us descend into the lounge pool. The water isn’t cold, like I expect but warm and comforting as I break the kiss and nuzzle into Matteo’s neck breathing in his fresh clean citrusy, vanilla scent. How is it that whenever they get me in their grasp, I feel like I’m meant to be there but when we’re apart I allow myself to talk myself out of it. Hormones are no joke, man. This shit is making me feel crazy. I push myself off of the king and sink underwater, kicking off the bottom to swim to the other side, away from the royal court. I just need a minute.

I really should’ve known better. I inadvertently swam directly to the other boys. Because of course they’d move to where I was going. I can’t escape these guys. Noah hauls me up his enormous body and mine naturally follows his lead until I end up wrapped around him. When he grabs my chin and tilts my face to his, he looks me directly in my eyes.

“Do you even know how beautiful you are? I could literally look into your eyes for the rest of my life and never once feel like I’m missing out on anything going on around me. I wish you had some faith in us. At some point, you’ll need to realize that you were meant to belong to us and finally submit. It’s not a weakness, you know? Giving in, means we’ll be stronger together.” He sighs as leans in and sweeps the most tender, most intimate of kisses on my lips.

I’m feeling everything I’ve avoided for so long and it’s way more intimidating than anything I’ve ever known. I know at this moment that I need to lock up my emotions because it feels too good to let these guys go just yet.

I melt into his kiss and decide to see how things go. I don’t have to give them my heart to enjoy the pleasure they give my body. My own attempts to make myself believe that I can end this at any time so why not enjoy it while it lasts, rings false but it’s the only justification I can come up with. I realize that lying to myself won’t really work but I push all my thoughts down.

“Just keep kissing me Pretty Boy.” I say, moving to rub myself up and down along his length. It is beyond amazing with nothing in between us. He kisses me again as he caresses me along the underside of my breast with delicate hands, surprising, given the size of them. They look like they are meant to destroy things and yet here he is, capable of so much more, where it should tickle, it just sends to most delicious tremors throughout my body.

God, this feels too good to be real. I let out a small whimper as his hard length rubs against my clit. Moving my hand down to grab the length of him, I realize how fucking thick and long he is. It shouldn’t be surprising considering he’s one of the largest guys I’ve ever seen, but shit... I start pumping up and down and notice how silky smooth the feel of his dick is. With every pump of my hand, he thrusts himself just enough to stimulate me as well and oh my fuck, does it feel amazing. I feel my lower tummy muscles start to tighten and my toes start to curl.

The closer I get to my climax, the harder I inadvertently grab onto him. He must enjoy it though. A little pain, a little pleasure. Noah lets out a long moan as he tenses up and lets out his release at the same time as me but I get damn near no recovery time. My body is still quaking with the adrenaline rush of coming. My pussy muscles clenching, aching for something to grasp onto.

“My turn with our girl. Come here Q.” Cohen says, and I look over at him gripping his dick and thrusting it into his own hand, pleasuring himself to the sight of me with his friend, just before he grabs me from behind and rubs his hard on along the cleft of my ass.

It’s a surprising turn on and I can feel my body start to get excited all over again. I start to wiggle against him as he reaches around and rubs my clit with his right hand while his left starts pinching my nipple hard. Then he’s grinding into my ass and nipping at my neck.

“Come again love. Right. Now.” He growls his demand.

Between the heat of his domineering command and the sensory overload, I start to see stars as another orgasm takes over my entire being. My head falls back into his hard chest as he lets out another growl as he comes in between my ass cheeks. I feel his whole body vibrate from the force of it and damn if it isn’t an empowering feeling, knowing how I affect these guys.

I turn to look to the last king and see the evidence of his arousal as he watches me and pumps his hand along his own impressive length lazily, like he could go on like that for hours. The heat in his eyes is almost enough to set me off again. He licks his lips and without even thinking, I lick mine too. It feels as though there’s an invisible tether between us and he’s pulling me into him with it.

I slowly make my way through the water to where he is back on the steps, and I align my face with his cock. It’s a little intimidating to look at up close, long and thick and oddly beautiful. It’s only then that I remember how I have nonexistent experience with a penis until today. I carefully reach out and grab the base pulling towards the head, then I brush the underside with my thumb. I look up into his eyes and see them burning up with desire. I must be doing it right since he lets out a groan.

It’s soft enough that it’s only for my ears but does the job because I’m tingling all over again. Knowing just how much I affect him is freeing. It’s making me sexually brave in a way I never thought I could be. I’ve come this far hating the idea of sex and now it seems to be all I want. I move forward and lick the underside of his length and then take as much of it as I can with my mouth. I open up my throat in an attempt to take the whole thing but he’s just too big so I use my hands to help bring him as much pleasure as I can.

“That’s it baby, just like that.” He groans.

I can feel him trembling and it has my pussy clenching and throbbing. It’s never felt so empty and ready. I moan at the sensations coursing through my body and it sets Matteo off. I only have a quick moment before I feel his semen coat the back of my throat and I swallow it down feeling incredibly powerful. I smirk up at him and realize this feeling, yeah, it could be dangerous.

Chapter Seventeen

Alessandra

Christmas break comes and goes too quickly. Nonno took mom and I on one of his business trips to Italy. We got to go shopping and do a ton of traditional touristy things. Between the architecture and the museums and phenomenal scenery, my whole life felt like it finally made sense. Like, I somehow fought my way from the bottom and lived a dirty, difficult life just so that I could appreciate those moments that much more.

I wasn’t just there viewing these things as another rich kid that maybe wouldn’t appreciate the culture and the creativity and craftsmanship that went into designing these stunning buildings and art forms. I saw them and felt otherworldly. Everything we encountered was breathtaking and I am so thankful to have experienced it.

I also got to spend a lot of time with nonno covering a lot of bases throughout the different companies he owns. Surprisingly, there are a lot more of them on the up and up than I would’ve expected. I think he was trying to shield me to an extent from some of the gritty and more sordid sides of things but I walked into every meeting with my head held high and ready for the worst.

There were definitely a few times that felt like I was being tested but Nonno was patient with me and every time I made the right call he beamed with pride and my confidence was boosted that much more. Our last meeting included the guys and up until that point, I had thought I’d done a decent job of staying connected to them via Facetime and text.

Let’s just say that my inbox is full of enough dirty messages that I feel like I could write a whole book on sexting. But seeing them in person, dressed to kill in perfectly fitted suits was enough to take my breath from me and I realized how much I actually missed them.

We talked about how to proceed with the DeLuca situation and Matteo confirmed that he’d been keeping a close eye on his father's business and conversations but has yet to find any of the contracts we need to dispose of. Apparently he and Cohen have a healthy reputation as computer hackers, maybe even better than SB so they’ll be doing some digital investigating as well. As it turns out, the guys have quietly been my grandfather's soldiers for quite some time. They are being groomed by their own families to take over as Underbosses for the territories branching out beyond nonno’s reach.
