CHAPTER 34
Kate
Vince had told me everything about his life in the mafia, but he hadn’t told me about his mother. I think he wasn’t ready before. By confronting Tony, it allowed him to move forward. To release that anger and pain. To do what he thought needed done for his mother’s memory. The violence was all a bit scary to me, but I understood that it was a different world. A world that thankfully we left behind. Right now, the best thing I could do was to be a good listener. And to support my man.
“Thank you,” he said. “I don’t mean to be dumping all my shit on you, but it does feel better to get it off my chest.”
“It’s okay. You were there for me, and now I’m here for you. That’s the way it works, my big burly man.”
Vince smiled. He reached down and took my cheek in his thumb and first finger. He leaned in and kissed me.
“I didn’t do anything for you. Not yet. I just did what was right.”
“Not just about Dante, Vince. If it wasn’t for you I’d still be up in that little podunk mountain town, but look at me. Look at us. We’re here by the sea. Peaceful and beautiful. I was falling apart back there. You found me and put me back together.”
“Like Humpty Dumpty?”
I smiled. “Just like Humpty Dumpty.”
“You are already the sexiest thing on this entire planet, but when you smile…”
His words made me want to melt. I felt so warm and gooey inside.
Over the next few minutes he told me all about his past. About his mother. He was opening up to me fully. Giving himself to me completely. It was sexy to see his emotional side. His tender side. I didn’t say anything while he spoke. When he was finished he just looked at me and smiled. I could see he was relieved. The weight of the world had been lifted off those massive shoulders of his. Now it was my turn to give myself back.
CHAPTER 35
Kate
Vince flashed that sexy smirk of his and I knew what was coming next. He peeled off his shirt and tossed it on the floor. I could see the passion and aggression about to come out and I liked it. I lay there with a sense of what was about to happen. I started to slide down my panties when suddenly Vince’s hand shot forward, taking my wrists in his iron grip. I froze. “What?”
“Not so fast. That’s my job.”
He still had his boxer briefs on. The bulge was clearly visible and obscenely huge. I could see the contours of his chiseled chest from the moonlight through the window. I reached up and traced his muscles with my fingertips. “You’re incredible.”
“No,” he says, as he kissed my mouth before working his way down, finding my nipple and sucking it strongly, “You’re incredible.”
He continued kissing his way down to the waistband of my panties. Slowly he started rolling them down. Anticipation built as he kissed each millimeter of freshly exposed skin.
I reached down and ran my hands through his hair. When he found the most sensitive of spots I grabbed his scalp reflexively. My hand lost contact when his entire body slid down pulling my panties clean off.
Vince looked up at me. “Are you ready for this?”
“Ready,” I said. “I don’t want to ever feel the same again.”
His tongue glided up the lips of my pussy. My body writhed and I breathed out hard. I’d never felt something so amazing. Ever single nerve in my body felt it, and they were all begging for more. When he reached the top he looked into my face. “Shall I continue?”
“Yes, please. More.” I was begging for his tongue to continue.
He smirked, lowering his head again. My thighs trembled as a rush of energy and a burst of light flooded my body. It was like my entire body had been turned on, and he was the electricity. My spine shivered as he continued. I began grinding upward against his tongue, unable to control my urges. All I could think of was more. More. I wanted more.
I could feel his two large, rough fingers slip inside me, moving back and forth to open me up for his huge cock. I couldn’t even think that far ahead. I was lost in this moment. In this now.
His tongue shot directly to my clit, and every ounce of pleasure was multiplied. I grabbed the sheets, balling them in my hands. My neck tensed and my toes curled. I exploded onto his fingers as he pushed his palm against my pussy, leaving just enough space to continue with his tongue. I collapsed onto the sheets. “Unbelievable.”
He slid off his boxer briefs and that huge cock of his sprung to attention. It was perfect. Long, thick, and with a head that was ready to hit every nerve inside me. I wanted nothing more than to suck it, even though I already knew there was no way I could fit that perfection all the way inside my mouth. I was more than willing to try.
I took it in my hands. It was warm, hard as a rock, but smooth. I had trusted him with my life and I was ready to trust him with so much more. I took his length into my mouth and slid forward. It felt so good and so powerful at the same time. I placed my hands at the base of his member and took the rest inside my mouth. I would have to learn how to accept all of him. It was going to take time to work up to his size.
His head leaned back and he moaned a deep moan. He looked like a wolf howling into the night. He leaned forward and looked at me. The sight sent him to the edge, but he wasn’t ready to go over. He pulled his cock out of my mouth and slid me onto my back, spreading my legs as far as he could. “Take me to another place.”
I felt a moment of fear as his cock slid inside me, spreading me open. I thought he was in, but I could feel myself being opened up wider and wider. My body fought back against its size, but somehow he managed to slide in fully.
I pulled him to me, and our lips sealed the bond. His head slid next to mine and I moaned into the night as he began thrusting slowly. He was working me more and more, increasing my ability to take what was about to come.
I felt Vince’s hips meet mine for the first time. I bit my lip as he continued thrusting. I cried out, and he reached to the side to grab a pillow. I bit the pillow and felt the pleasure of being filled completely.
I’d never thought it was possible to be stretched open this way. My hips tried to rise up to meet his thrusts, but he was too powerful. I was hammered down to the mattress instantly.
It had been an emotional day and he was releasing years of pent up emotions in me. I wanted them all. I wanted this every night. To be his, here in this beautiful place. Forever.
“I’m going to come.”
“Fuck,” he said as he slid the pillow back in my mouth. He was covered in sweat and thrusting, staring down at me, into my eyes as we climaxed together.
I had thought his tongue was amazing before, but this was something different. Something more fulfilling. I reached my arms around his back and drew him closer to me. He collapsed on top of me as we lay. His cock twitched a few more seconds, and I felt like I was able to satisfy him completely. He had lost control when he was inside me. And he had continued to cum even after he pulled out. I was proud of that.
Vince kissed me tenderly. It was the perfect seal of approval on our act of making love. And the perfect finish to another incredible day with this absolutely incredible man.
CHAPTER 36
Vince
I could feel Kate was totally relaxed as she lay on my chest. She had drifted off to sleep not long after we had climaxed together. It was amazing. The most incredible sex I’d ever had, because of my connection with her. She was the only woman I ever wanted from now until eternity. And I had her.
I had opened up to her totally. About Tony, about my mom, and about how the two of them fit together in my past. She supported me and reminded me I couldn’t control the past, or how I came to be on this earth. We could only control our future. And that was each other. And we’d face whatever future challenges came together.
CHAPTER 37
Vince
I slept late the next morning. By the time I woke it was already time for lunch. I walked to the kitchen and saw a note. She had taken Dante for a walk down
to the sea. She wanted to get him used to being outside in beautiful environments as much as possible as his mind and body developed.
I went to the toilet and brushed my teeth. As I prepared for the day I thought back to the last time I had slept so long. I couldn’t remember. I had been so high strung all these years. A few times I had tried sleeping pills or even a glass of whisky to fall asleep. I had tried blackout blinds, no eating before bed, different temperatures…all of the tricks that doctor’s recommend. As it turns out, all I really ever needed was her.
CHAPTER 38
Kate
One Month Later
Picnic time.” We still needed to pick up the sandwiches and drinks, but we could do that on the walk down.
It had been an amazing first month. Living on an island was everything I thought it would be and more. And not just any island. Sardinia. And not just with any man, but the man of my dreams. And our son. How lucky can a girl get?
“Ready for today?” Usually when Vince said that it meant he was up to something.
“I know that usually means get ready for today, more than are you ready,” I said. Vince raised his one eyebrow letting me know I might be onto something.
“You talkin’ to me?” His mafia impressions always made me laugh. But they weren’t really impressions. He told me the things you see in Hollywood can be true, but the real mafia life is different. He told me a thing or two, but he spared my ears the parts he knew I wouldn’t want to hear.
We made our way to the beach only to see a few people at the seaside.
“I guess we can’t have it all to ourselves every day,” I said.
Vince didn’t say anything, which told me something was definitely up.
It was sad seeing the old man at the shoreline dressed all in black. It’s usually a sign he just lost his spouse. I didn’t want to let it put a damper on our day, and when we got closer to him and he turned around it did anything but. He was a Catholic priest.
“Oh my God, Vince. You didn’t.”
Vince took Dante and dropped to a knee.
“Kate, from the very first moment I saw you I knew you were the only one for me. Kate, will you marry me?”
“Yes, yes, yes! A million times yes. Forever yes.” Tears were pouring from my eyes.
Vince scooped me up and kissed me. Because of the tears I could barely see where he was taking me. He was still holding me in one arm and Dante in the other. He walked the last few steps to the priest who was watching the whole thing. He couldn’t help but smile.
“This is definitely a first,” he said.
“It had to be,” Vince said. “She’s the one and only. And today I’m going show her. Today I’m going to promise to her, in front of the entire world, that forever and always that she’ll be my love.”
“Then shall we begin?”
Vince turned to me. Looking at me with all the love in the world. “Let’s begin. I can’t wait any longer to make you my wife.”
EPILOGUE
Kate
Two Years Later
Would you like that in cash, ma’am, or would you prefer a transfer?” Mr. Muller asked. He had become our trusted advisor and someone I relied on heavily since our move to Italy.
“Cash would be fine, Simon,” I said.
“Certainly,” he said. “Please excuse me for just a couple minutes while I prepare the funds.”
It allowed me to take in the interior of the building. It was one of the oldest, and most beautiful, in all of Zurich. I always loved coming to Switzerland, and this year was no exception.
Vince had encouraged me to pursue art after I had taken it upon myself to redecorate our home in Sardinia.
I had started to paint, inspired by our island life. In two days I’d be having a few pieces on display for the opening of Art Basel. I couldn’t believe my life had turned from such a small town to one of such world-class style and sophistication.
But I would never forget my roots. That was one of the other reasons I loved coming to Switzerland.
“All set?” Vince said as he put his hands on my shoulders from behind and kissed me on the cheek. He had dropped Dante and I off while he searched for a parking spot. Always the gentleman.
“Almost. Simon’s just preparing the briefcase.”
Our eyes both looked down at the face in the chair next to us. There sat our little Dante. He was growing like a weed.
I knew he was beyond excited to get out of the bank and up into the mountains. It must have been in his blood. His love for the mountains passed down through my genes. My family had lived there for so many generations it must have become engrained in our DNA.
It was Dante’s first ski trip. He had been so excited for months. He decided he would try snowboarding, and hoped he could transition to surfing on day.
Our little man was already mapping out his athletic career.
But what he didn’t know was that soon he wouldn’t be our only little man. We wanted to ensure he’d be the center of attention that weekend as we celebrated his birthday. Some of the withdrawal would go towards his education, but of course some would also go towards getting him that snowboard he had his eye on. And the rest would go towards preparing for a soon to be new addition to our family.
After the weekend was over we’d have another gift for Dante. The knowledge that he’d soon have a brother.
And like his father, he’d have someone to watch over and protect. To help his little brother out, and show him the ropes. A buddy to swim with in the waters off Sardinia and sip hot chocolate with in the Alps.
But the best part was we were just getting started.
Vince’s appetite for me was still off the charts. He was fully reconnecting with his Italian roots and wanted nothing more than a big family. I was excited to give it to him, especially after what he’d already given to me. And what he was sure to give me later that night there was no way I’d ever deny him his wish to make our little family grow.
It was exactly what I wanted to.

EXCERPT: RESCUED
CHAPTER 1
Mason
A woman to love and a family to protect.
Is that too much to ask for?
I love my country and have been protecting her my entire adult life. It was my calling. My higher purpose.
But there was always another purpose. Something greater than me. Something that consumed me.
A family.
I wanted a family so damn bad it hurt.
I know what it’s like not to have one. I grew up alone, bouncing from foster home to foster home.
I knew I’d never be able to have a real family as a child, but I was determined to have one when my time came.
And my time is now.
I pushed my aching body off the deck. I always started out each day the same. Early 5k run, 100 sit-ups, 100 push-ups, and 50 dead hang pull-ups.
I do it because I love it, but I also do it because I have to. To be ready. For what? Everything.
I protect good people who can’t always protect themselves. I took the skills I learned as a SEAL and transferred them into civilian life.
I thought nothing would ever compare to SEAL life. Traveling, helping people out, and rescuing hostages. It was all great, no doubt.
But there’s nothing better than helping your own. Helping your fellow citizens, in the country you love and protect.
I walked over to the bushes where I’d stashed my phone and my shirt.
One missed call. Jaxon.
He’s going to rub it in my face. Not intentionally of course, but it will hurt just the same.
I dialed the numb
er and he picked up on about the seventh ring.
“Mason, hey man. Give me one second. Getting attacked here by my fireteam.”
And it begins. I don’t even have one child and he has four. Enough for an entire fireteam.
“How’s the bachelor life?” he says. I can hear roughhousing in the background. Boys will be boys.
