His Mafia Princess (Family First #1) Page 5
Greg frowned and shook his head. He would never understand this man that had been his mentor, but he also wouldn’t be weakened by wedding Alessandra.
“I will return in two days. Do not think to bar me from my bride.”
“If I do?”
“You will die.” Greg stated this simply.
“Two days. Make sure when you return you have a ring for her and know that she’s far more than a pawn in your rise to power.”
“I’m not the one who married a woman just to keep her from my enemies.”
“Touché.” Gio lifted his glass once more.
Gregorio turned and walked away before he shoved his fist down Giovanni’s throat.
Chapter Eleven
He tossed back his whiskey and leaned back once more. Greg watched the strippers on stage before him and grinned. Damn these women were good. Snake kept tossing money at them, which had them doing even more to please the tattoo covered man.
When Amy bent her head again, he watched Teresa moan and toss her head back and forth. Teresa was holding Amy’s head between her legs, lifting a leg slightly so all of the men around the dance floor could see Amy licking Teresa’s pussy and pushing the vibrator in and out of her cunt as well. Greg nodded and waved to the waiting dancer. Then he leaned forward to watch.
He watched as Sally placed the large strap on dildo at Amy’s pussy and started fucking her. The sounds of Amy’s cunt slurping at that dildo made all of the men groan. They all watched Sally fucking the shit out of Amy while she tongued Teresa. He wasn’t surprised when one of the men got on stage with them and started to fuck Sally, his hips pushing against Sally, which caused her to fuck Amy harder. It seemed that was what Amy needed, because she was munching Teresa like a woman starved for pussy.
Snake and a couple more of his men got onto the stage with the others. One grabbed Amy’s head and shoved his cock into her throat. His hips pumped in and out of her mouth several times before he blew his load. Once he came, he walked away from them, doing up his pants as he did so. “Have fun, boys.”
Greg laughed when Snake took position behind Sally and shove his fat cock up her ass. He heard her scream, a sound that was cut off by a cock shoved down her throat. He snapped his fingers.
Kandy, one of the other women under his employee, came up to him.
He looked to the men around the room and the stage. “Make sure that they all get their rocks off. Take care of them, Kandy.” Greg would normally be fucking these women right along with his men, but he couldn’t. Instead, all he wanted to do was get home and think of Alessandra.
“And what about you, sir? Do you need someone to take care of you?”
“No. I’m getting married soon.”
“And?” She twirled her hair around her fingers. “That’s not a shackle around your beautiful cock.”
“To me it is. She’s more than a vow. She’s going to be my forever, Kandy.”
“How about a goodbye fuck, for old times’ sake?” she asked. “I will even let you fuck my ass if you want to.”
“Strip. I’m not fucking you, but others are.” He snapped his fingers and Roland and Tony both looked his way. “Get on your fucking knees whore and suck Roland’s cock.” He looked behind her and nodded. “Tony’s going to fuck your pussy with Roland in your asshole. You’re taking both cocks.” Gregorio might not want to have another lover, not knowing what was waiting for him, but he was perfectly happy to make these whores work for their money tonight, and he loved to watch.
“Fuck yes.” She practically moaned those two words and dropped to her knees. She motioned Tony closer and started to work on Roland’s cock first, determination he figured. Her hand was working on Tony’s cock, squeezing the head of his shaft while she deep throated Roland.
He watched as Roland fisted his hands in her hair and started to brutally face fuck her. Greg didn’t give two fucking shits for this woman, and she was the one who wanted it. All of it, so they were all going to give it to her.
Roland sat on one of the club chairs and looked to Kandy. “Get your fucking ass over here bitch.” Greg listened to the low rumbling growl coming from Roland as he spoke. When she turned her back to him, he tugged her close, his latex covered dick dipping into her dripping wet pussy first to lubricate his cock. Then he pushed her ass just a bit so he could press his dick into her ass. Roland held onto her hips and lifted his ass from the chair so he could push his cock deeper into the dark back passage on the woman.
Greg listened to the groans of Roland and leaned back, grinning.
“Fuck, Kandy, you are squeezing my dick like crazy.”
“Unlike the other bitches, I don’t let Snake fuck my asshole. That bastard has a fucking Louisville Slugger for a cock.”
Greg barked out a laugh and watched Roland pull her fully down on his cock. “Spread your fucking legs whore.”
When she had her legs wide, Tony slid his covered dick into her pussy for several thrusts. Both men moved in tandem. Something they had done often was the sharing of pussy. Both of them were rocking on Kandy until Tony gave a small nod to Roland.
Soon everyone else is going to fuck your ass if they want, including Snake,” Roland growled against her ear.
“And are you going to share little miss perfect?” Kandy asked Greg snidely, turning to look at the man watching her getting fucked.
Greg stood quickly and moved to her. Grabbing her neck, he squeezed tightly and said, “Don’t fucking talk about her. Ever.” He growled. “Or you will find out what working the streets will do for your fucking ass. Got it?”
When she nodded, he looked to Tony and gave him a look. He smiled when Kandy cried out in pain when Tony shoved his cock and three fingers into her pussy while Roland fucked her ass. Yes, Snake might have the thickest cock around, but when Roland and Tony were together inside a woman, they put Snake to shame, even if their dicks were in separate holes.
“Fuck yeah.”
Greg heard Tony moaning and that fast both men started to hammer hard inside of the stripper. It wasn’t long before both men were filling their condoms with their semen, both of them grunting with their pleasure.
As fast as they came, Tony pulled out of her pussy, and Roland pushed her off of his lap and off his dick. Both men dropped their condoms into the wastebasket as they pulled up their pants.
“Drinks and whores on me tonight.” Greg called this out to the room after watching the fascinating porn show that had been put on just for him. “And Kandy’s eager to have her ass reamed tonight. Have at it, boys.” He shot Kandy a look. “Never talk about her again. Ever. Got it?” When she nodded, he looked at Tony and then both men walked out of the bar to their bikes.
“What was that all about, Boss?” Tony asked as they sat on their Harleys.
“I don’t fucking know. It pissed me off. I wanted to choke her for even thinking about Alessandra.”
Tony laughed and shook his head. He kicked his bike to turn it over. When the motor was rumbling, he looked to his friend. “Three words you need to learn so you can tell Alessandra when you take her virginity.”
“What words?”
“I. Love. You.” Tony laughed and then rode off, leaving Greg sitting there with his mouth opening and closing like a guppy trying to get water.
Greg watched his friend as his lights disappeared down the highway and cursed. “Fuck.” He did love her. Jesus Fucking Christ he was in love with the woman. He knew she was an obsession for him but love? She was going to be his Achilles heel, but he couldn’t and wouldn’t push her away because of it. He would just protect her more. He would ensure she was protected around the clock when he couldn’t be there with her.
He took off after picking his proverbial jaw from the pavement. He still had to find the Russians and Vasily as well as his sons, but he had to see Alessandra again. He had to know she was safe.
With that in mind, he rode off toward the mansion.
Chapter Twelve
Alessandra sat w
ith her father on the veranda behind the house, the scents of the blooming trees and fresh cut grass teased her senses. She could smell his cologne wafting around them, but also the light scent of the cigars he smoked as well. She heard him speaking, but it didn’t make sense, at all, to her.
Alessandra looked at her father and attempted to listen to what he was saying. She frowned then, still not understanding. “I’m sorry but what?” She was utterly taken aback by what he had told her. There was simply no way her father was telling her was a mobster.
“You know exactly what I said, Alessandra. It doesn’t look good on you to play the simpleton.” Her father’s lips turned down in a frown. Even though he’d already said as much, it was still hard for her to accept. She could see her father’s worry in his eyes and felt it in his words.
“I’m not trying to play a simpleton, Daddy, but I’m honestly more than a little confused. I’m trying to wrap my mind around the fact that you came in here and told me that you are, well, what you are.” She couldn’t say the word mobster, as he had. She had to think of him some other way. The man who took her had called her father that, but to her he was her daddy. He was and always would be just a businessman in her mind. “But you are telling me Gregorio is taking over for you.”
“I saw something in him years ago when I brought him into the Family. He’s worked his way through the ranks, and now he’s my second. It’s time. It’s time for me to step down so he can take over. It’s been coming for a while, but I’ve honestly put it off as long as possible. I’ve wanted to stay in power because, well let’s face it, Alessandra, I’m a control freak.”
“Yes, I’m very aware of the fact that you are a control freak.” She said this with a small frown. “However, that doesn’t explain the whole ‘why now’ part.”
“Because you were taken. My men were already thinking I was too weak to continue to lead them. When your men start questioning your leadership, it's not a good situation. It’s time to walk away when that happens.”
“So what does that mean for me?”
“Well, my darling, that’s all up in the air right now. If you want to, I will let you come with me to our family home in Nice.”
She loved the villa in Italy. It was beautiful and seemed to fit into the hills where the hole was located. “I would be bored silly.” She admitted this after a moment of thought. “I love living here.” This was her home, this mansion that they lived in. She loved the area. Her friends were all here and it was simply, well, home.
“Then there will be changes,” her father said as he rose to his feet. “But I will let you find out about those later.”
Gregorio, she knew that was what her father was alluding to. He had told her he was going to give her two days to heal, and then he was going to come back for her. She felt her body reacting to the thought of him coming back for her and couldn’t wait.
“I understand,” she finally said to her father when she realized he was looking at her and waiting for some sort of a reply.
“Good. I’m glad you do understand.” Her father hesitated for a moment and then said, “I never wanted you to find out what I did. I never wanted you to be in this life you’ve now been pulled into. Your mother knew what I did, and she made me swear before she died that I would never let this life touch yours. I wasn’t able to keep that promise, and for that I’m sorry.”
“You should’ve told me. I feel as if I’ve been kept in the dark about a subject that directly affects me. This bothers me, a great deal. I’m not a child, Daddy. Yes, I know you see me as one, but I’m not. I know I have a great deal of growing up to do, but I could have handled this, if you had told me first. I never would have guessed.” She admitted this to her father with a small hitch in her voice as she spoke.
The man reached for his daughter and wrapped his arms around her. He wasn’t a rotund man, but he wasn’t chiseled muscle like Gregorio was. It was weird how she was thinking and comparing all men to Gregorio now. “Your mother never wanted you to know, so I swore I wouldn’t tell you. I am so sorry that promise was broken. I’m certain one day your mother will take me to task for that. When I’ve died and stand before Saint Peter, she will be there at his side so she can ensure I’m held accountable. She will remind me just what evil I have done.”
“Mother loved you.”
“She loved me, yes, but she didn’t love the man I was. She didn’t love the man that killed without remorse, that ruled with a brutal hand. No, she will be there to ensure Saint Peter gets it all right.”
Alessandra could only nod. That sounded like her mother. Ensuring that justice was done. Her mother had been gentle and kind, but she had a sense of honor most wouldn’t ever be able to even think of.
“It is because of her that I stopped selling children.”
Alessandra pulled from her father and gasped. She stepped back as if he were someone she didn’t know and shook her head. “You what?”
“I did. I made a lot of money on it as well. However, because of her, I no longer do so.”
“I…” She didn’t know what to say about that. She had no idea how to even think of her father now. He was not the man she had grown up with. He was not the man that had bounced her on his knee and played with her. He was a monster.
“I need time.” She turned to run from the man that had raised her, the man that had loved her. She had to get away or she would say and do something that would hurt their relationship even more than it was currently hurt.
Alessandra grabbed her keys on the way through the house. She hopped into her car and took off as soon as the garage door opened. No, it might not be the smartest thing she had ever done, but the fact was that she wasn’t thinking. She just needed to get away.
With tears rolling from her eyes, she drove toward the one place on the planet that always calmed her. She drove toward the observatory that stood on the top of the highest point in their state.
Putting the car into park, she got out and walked to the edge of the high ridge and simply stood there. She looked over the valley and realized she had never truly seen the world. She had seen it all through the eyes of a child.

“You shouldn’t be out here without a guard.”
When he had gotten to the mansion and her father sat nursing a whiskey sour, Gregorio had been pissed when Giovanni told him Alessandra had gone out without protection. His blood had run cold. After punching the old man for letting her leave without a guard, he got into one of the cars instead of his bike so he could move faster. The Hennessey Venom GT had been built for speed, after all.
When she turned to face him, he saw her tear-stained cheeks and wanted to hit someone all over again.
“I needed to breath.”
“I knew you would come here.” He moved just a bit closer to her. “You’ve always loved it here.”
“It’s the only place I’ve ever felt as if I belonged.”
“Oh, honey.” Gregorio wrapped his coat around her shoulders and he moved in to cup her cheek. “You’ve always belonged.” He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close. “I’ve waited so damn to hold you,” he confessed and squeezed her tighter. “You’ve always amazed me.” He stroked her hair now and held her. “He tried to keep you from ever learning the truth.” He pressed a kiss at her ear. “But one thing he could never keep you from is me. I tried, Alessandra. I tried to stay away, because I know I’m not a good man and I never will be.”
She tried to pull back from him, but he wouldn’t allow it. He held her closer. “Let me finish,” he said. “I’ve tried to stay from you, but I can’t. You have one chance, Al, only one. If you don’t walk away now I’m never letting you go.”
“You told me two days.” Alessandra looked up at him with a smile. Damn, he loved that look in her eyes. “Were you part of all of the family business?”
“Do you want me to lie to you?” He pulled her back slightly, his fist in her long dark black tresses to control her head. “Because now t
hat you know, you need to open your eyes and know everything. I won’t lie to you, Alessandra, not now that you know.”
“I don’t want someone to lie to me. I don’t want to be coddled. I need to know what I’m getting into.”
“Yes, I was part of it all. I’ve fucked every whore under your father. I’ve beaten and killed men that didn’t pay when they owed a debt. I’m not a good man, Alessandra, and I never will be. But…” He tightened his hold on her hair. He wanted to see how she would react to a bit of pain. “Once you are in my bed, I won’t fuck another. That’s the way it should be. The Boss should never have a mistress.”
“Did my father?”
“Several. You have two half-brothers out there somewhere. They were twins. He’s hidden them or paid his whore off to go away, but I know that they are out there. They were born two days after you.”
He heard her indrawn breath and felt her shake in his arms. “What?” She whispered that word, her eyes once more wide.
“You heard me. Don’t ask for a repetition of something you already know, Alessandra. It makes you seem dim, and we both know you aren’t. Don’t demean yourself and me by asking for statements to be parroted back at you.” She was going to be his wife. He would not allow her to seem weak. He wasn’t going to let her hide. Not now. Never again. “You are stronger than this, Alessandra, and you damn well know it. Don’t act stupid.”
“Don’t talk to me like that,” she said angrily, her eyes flashing in anger. “Contrary to popular believe, I am not stupid.”
“I know.” He knew just how intelligent she was. She had two degrees from college and was far too smart for him, but he wasn’t letting her go. Not now and not ever. “You make me feel, but it's more than that. You make me question myself, and you make me more observant because you are so smart. I’m thankful for your intellect. You are more than a beautiful woman to have on my arm.”
“I don’t want to know anything about the business. I just want you to come home to me each and every night. Can you do that?”
