"More than ever," I whisper, my heart pounding in anticipation as the world outside ceases to exist, replaced by the intoxicating passion we share.
Philippe thrusts, utterly filling me, and a shudder of pleasure courses through my body. I dig my nails into his strong shoulders, feeling the tension in his muscles as he moves within me. Our eyes lock, our breaths mingling in the humid air as we lose ourselves in each other.
"Ah, Tatiana," he whispers, his voice ragged with desire, "you feel incredible."
"Philippe," I moan, arching my back to meet his every thrust. Desire simmers beneath my skin, building with each second that passes.
"Ti voglio così tanto." Philippe murmurs into my ear, sending shivers down my spine. – I need you so much.
"Show me," I plead, surrendering myself to the fire between us. "Show me how much you want me."
With a growl, Philippe increases his pace, each stroke deeper and more powerful than the one before. He pounds me. He pounds me so fucking hard while my legs remain draped over his shoulders, allowing him to claim every inch of me.
He's hitting deeper, harder, in places I've never felt cock before. I wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him closer, feeling the heat of his body against mine.
"Deeper," I gasp, desperate for more. The intensity of our connection threatens to consume me, leaving nothing but ashes in its wake. Philippe obliges, driving into me with an animalistic ferocity that leaves me breathless.
"Are you close?" he asks, his voice strained.
"Si," I whimper, teetering on the edge of ecstasy.
"Then let go,amore mio," he urges, his lips brushing against mine. "Let go with me."
The dam inside me finally shatters, and I cry out as waves of pleasure crash over me, drowning me in their depths. Philippe follows suit, his body tensing, his cum dripping down my legs.
Chapter 23
Philippe
The warmth of Tatiana's body envelops me as I wake, her slender arm draped lightly across my chest. The silk sheets caress my skin, smooth and cool against the heat of our entwined forms.
I breathe her in, the floral scent of her hair, and memories of last night wash over me—carrying her sleeping body gently to my bed, laying her down and curling myself around her. A protectiveness welled up in me then, unlike anything I've known before.
My phone vibrates on the nightstand, letting me know that the forensics on the bodies are done. Now, gazing at her serene face, I'm overcome by an urge to shelter this woman, to spare her any more pain.
She's suffered so much and yet shown such resilience. I want to take this burden from her to handle the logistics of her parent’s funeral. Things I believe will only cause her more anguish.
I pick up my phone and step out into the hallway, pulling the door closed behind me. I dial a number I know by heart - Carlo, my uncle who recently handled my own father's funeral.
"Ciao, Uncle Carlo," I say when he answers. "I apologize for the early call, but I need a favor."
"Anything for you, Philippe," he replies without hesitation. Our families have been allies for generations.
"There's been a tragedy," I explain. "The Amantes were murdered two nights ago."
Uncle Carlo sucks in a breath. "Dio mio. Who would do such a thing?"
"I don't know yet," I lie, not wanting to involve more people than necessary in this Bratva mess. "But their daughter Tatiana is here with me. She's...important to me now." I lower my voice. "I want to spare her from handling the funeral arrangements. Will you take care of everything?"
"Of course," Uncle Carlo agrees at once. "Just tell me what you need."
As I describe my vision for a beautiful funeral honoring Tatiana’s parents, Uncle Carlo listens attentively, jotting down notes on the other end. He knows I will provide all the funds required. I want only the best for Tatiana at such a time.
"I'll make the calls and take care of everything," Uncle Carlo promises. "You focus on the investigation and being there for the girl. She's lucky to have you, Philippe."
"Thank you, my friend," I reply, gratitude swelling within me. With Uncle Carlo handling the funeral, Tatiana will be sheltered from that burden.
"One last thing. Do her parents have funeral spots prepared already?"
