I was pretty sure that when it came to materialistic items, the brothers would buy me whatever my heart desired. The thing was... I wasn’t a materialistic person. I wanted so much more. Things that didn’t cost money, and things that the brothers clearly weren’t willing to give.
As we walked outside, I saw Gio standing by the front door with two other men in suits.
“We’re going for a walk,” Stefano announced.
“All is secure,” Gio said. “Cameras, sensors, security gates around the full property. I personally toured the premises myself.”
“Thank you, Gio,” Thomas said. “There’s an envelope inside on the kitchen counter waiting for you.”
“But we’d like you to stay for a few more days. My brother and I will need to brief you on some business in the States we will want you to handle while we are here.” Stefano placed his hand on my lower back as we took the stairs down.
“How long do you plan on staying?” Gio asked.
“A while. We don’t plan on traveling unless need be while Hailey is pregnant,” Thomas announced.
“And then we don’t want to leave the baby right away either,” Stefano added.
My heart stopped as I glanced at one brother’s face and then the other.
Staying?
They were staying?
For months. For almost a year at least.
With me?
“We’ll talk more and go over everything after our walk,” Thomas said, stepping closely beside me.
I was nestled in between the brothers as we began to stroll a dirt path leading into a mass of trees. The sun felt good on my face, and though the boots I wore were a little big, it felt good to stretch my legs and feel normal in the fresh air. The three of us walked in silence. Side by side.
Three.
Strike that. Four if you count the baby inside.
Stefano was the first to break the silence as we were several yards from the house. “It’s nice to be in the country.”
“The land is pretty spectacular,” Thomas added.
I hadn’t said a word since we walked out the door. I had no idea what to say. I had no idea what the hell was going on. These men seemed... different.
“My brother and I have made a decision,” Thomas said.
“We would like to stay. With you, with the baby, and we want to...” Stefano seemed to be struggling to find the right words.
I simply walked on. I was scared that if I chimed in at all, they would suddenly go back to their closed off, no emotion selves. I was terrified that what I heard them say to Gio was just a momentary lapse of judgement, and they would suddenly change their minds and hop back on the first flight to Miami or wherever else they bounced around to.
“We shouldn’t have left you,” Thomas said. “We know that now.”
“We shouldn’t have done a lot of things,” Stefano added, sounding remorseful, which was odd. I wasn’t used to seeing this softer side of either of them.
“When you confessed your feelings to us at the manor,” Thomas said, reaching for my hand and taking it in his. “You weren’t wrong. There was a bond between all of us. There was something so strong that it scared the holy hell out of both of us. Our plan was to never love you. To never care.”
“But we do,” Stefano cut in. He took my other hand. “We care and we love you. As hard as it is to say those words, and to admit the feeling, we do.”
Holding both of their hands, walking between them, strolling the countryside in Italy... we were talking about an epic love story right out of a romance novel. But this was too good to be true. This was so polar opposite of what I had before. This was not the future I had accepted as mine. It just couldn’t be.
When had my beasts turned into princes?
I pulled away from both of them and froze.
They walked in front of me so they could stare directly at me.
“We don’t deserve you,” Stefano said.
“And we don’t have the best of situations to offer,” Thomas added. “In fact, a life with the two of us won’t be easy.”
“And if you say no, truly say no and not want us in your day to day life anymore, we will accept that answer. Choosing us is not part of your punishment for the betrayal. We’re done dictating, we’re done demanding.”
“We’re done truly punishing,” Thomas said with his eyes locked with mine.
“Well...” Stefano had a smirk on his face. “We’re done punishing for the betrayal. We still have our... needs.”
Thomas chuckled. “Fair enough. We aren’t changed men. In fact, the reality is, we are who we are.”
“I told you from the beginning that I knew who you were. And I had accepted that,” I finally said. “But you both shattered my heart. You both rejected me and made me feel as if I was the only one who felt there was more between us.”
“And for that, we are sorry,” Thomas said.
“We’re sorry for a lot of things when it comes to you. We can’t fix it. We can’t take it all away. All we can do is move forward from this point on.” Stefano took a step toward me with an extended hand. “If you allow us to.”
I countered his movement by taking a step backwards. “And what does this future look like? How to you both see this playing out?”
“With you,” Stefano answered. “The three of us together raising the baby as a family.”
I looked at Thomas and studied his face, and then did the same with Stefano.
“It won’t be easy,” Thomas said. “We have a lot of the details still to work out. But we were thinking that one of us would marry you legally, and then the other would be the father on the birth certificate. That way, if something were to happen to either one of us and we were killed, you and the baby would be protected legally, and our assets would be yours in the eyes of the law.”
I didn’t care about all the legal details. Or how the money would be dispersed if they died. I wanted to know what this really meant.
“I have demands of my own,” I had the courage to say.
I watched Stefano look at Thomas and they both smiled. A wicked smile. The brothers clearly could speak to each other silently as only twins could do.
Not wanting to lose my will to speak my mind, I quickly continued on. “I don’t want to be locked away in some tower like Rapunzel. I don’t want to be away from you. I understand you will have business, and I’m not asking to help run it, unless you need help with the books, that is. But I am asking to not be shut out. I don’t want to be treated like some naive little girl and kept in the dark by the two of you.”
“Fair enough,” Thomas said as he looked at me. “And we may take you up on that idea about still handling our books.”
“I also...” I swallowed hard as my stomach twisted in nerves to reveal my truth. “I also don’t want you to be soft on me. I liked the firm hand. I fucking craved it.”
“Oh, we won’t be soft. Trust me on that,” Stefano said with a small laugh that was lined with a delicious promise that caused my pussy to throb.
“Do you love me?” I asked, not sure how I got the inner strength to simply ask what I really wanted to know from them.
“I don’t think I truly know what that means. I can’t speak for my brother, but I’m not sure I can one hundred percent say yes. At least not the normal kind of love,” Thomas said. “But I know I don’t want to live without you. I know that I want you by my side—by our side—as we move forward with our lives. I can’t imagine myself being with any other woman. And I know that I want to make sure you are protected, cared for, and treated as you deserve every single day we are alive.”
“I love you,” Stefano said softly. “My version is no doubt fucked up. It’s not going to be the tender kisses and red roses kind of love. I’m not an easy man, but with that said, I would never disrespect you or harm you in any way. Once you agree to be mine—to be ours—you will see a side of me that will nearly suffocate you with my kind of love.”
I could taste th
e tears on my lips as they fell down my face. These men were saying everything I had hoped to one day hear. They were promising their truths, and their hearts—no matter how dark and twisted they were. They weren’t promising me they would change. They weren’t saying goodbye to the mafia underground world.
And that was fine by me.
I wanted to enter their world. I wanted them to let me in.
And they were. They finally were.
I reached out both of my hands.
One for Stefano.
One for Thomas.
“Yes,” I said. “Yes,” I said again. Twice. Two times. Double the confirmation. Everything I would do from this point on would be that way.
Not one love.
Two.
Not one man.
Two.
But I would do whatever I could to make the three of us, and soon four of us, become one.
Epilogue
“Shh... you’re going to wake up the baby,” Stefano said as he thrust his cock harder and deeper inside of me as if that would somehow make my moaning lessen.
“I have a way of silencing her,” Thomas said as he placed the tip of his dick at my lips.
I readily opened my mouth for him as Stefano drove in and out of my pussy. My tongue lapped at Thomas’s cock, and I moaned even more as his musky scent attacked what little senses I had left.
We had just arrived in our fourth home since the baby had been born, and I had grown accustomed to breaking in the new bed upon arrival. Moving from place to place hadn’t been nearly as difficult as I had anticipated, and I actually quite enjoyed the new and exciting adventures our family got to be part of. The brothers rarely left me and the baby, and if they did, it was no more than a night or two. I knew that they had already passed on a majority of the business to Gio who was one of the few people they trusted. They were on paternity leave, and they both believed they had earned this time to do so.
Thomas took hold of my hair and began to control the speed in which I sucked him off. I was grateful for him taking over since my mind began to cloud as an impending orgasm built from Stefano thrusting his cock in and out at a speed I could barely handle. His cock spread me wide, and no matter how many times we fucked, I always struggled to accept his length and girth.
“If you’re not quiet, naughty girl, we’ll have no choice but to punish you,” Stefano said huskily.
My pussy clenched at the picture in my head of being placed over one of their knees or bent over a bed with the sound of leather hissing through the air.
Yes, punish me. I’m a very naughty girl.
I would have said the words out loud if it weren’t for the large cock deep-throating me.
“I think we should do that anyway,” Thomas said. I looked up into his eyes as my body rocked back and forth. The wicked smile and the glimmer in his eyes told me he had planned on doing so from the very beginning. “Get that cock nice and wet. It’s going in your ass next.”
That was part of our routine. Every single house we moved to, the brothers made sure that our dynamic was set. Fucking and discipline were my penance. As their wife. As the mother to their child, and as a woman actively trying and hoping for another baby Bennato to join our happy family.
My penance. My punishment.
My crime? I was guilty of loving the Bennato Brothers.
For that, I needed to pay.
A penance I would honor for the rest of my life.
For I was their naughty girl, and that would never change.

His Caged Kitty
I left Earth hoping for a new start on an unspoiled world, but what I found was a savage land where men command and women obey. Stolen from my transport before I could even reach my destination, I barely escaped with my life, and now the man who took it upon himself to protect me has claimed me as his property, his pet to use and enjoy as he pleases.
I fought him at first, until he bared me, spanked me, and showed me what it truly means to belong to a dominant man. Punished, humiliated, and wearing nothing but a collar and a tail, I cannot help longing for him to make me his in every way, to master my body completely and keep me forever as his caged kitty.

Bared
When I agreed to work for him I thought I knew what I was getting myself into, but I was wrong. I knew he would be stern. I knew he would be demanding. What I didn’t expect was to find myself over his knee for a painful, humiliating spanking the very first time I displeased him.
But that was just the beginning. As he strips me bare and uses me as roughly and shamefully as he pleases, my body’s response to his firm-handed dominance is undeniable. I’m going to take everything he gives me, and in my heart I know it won’t be long until I’m begging for more.

Caged
When I set out to show Eddie Vasco he’s not above the law, there was something I didn’t realize.
He is above the law.
That’s why I’m in a cage, wearing nothing but a tail, with the sting of his belt reminding me how disobedient pets are punished. That’s why he’s going to use me as roughly as he pleases.
Buy on Amazon
Forbidden
Pure. Untouched. The daughter of my most loyal friend.
I shouldn’t have bared and punished her.
I shouldn’t think every day of tearing her clothes off and ravaging her.
But I did, and I do, and when I claim her it won’t be the gentle lovemaking she deserves.
Forbidden or not, she’ll scream my name as she learns what it means to belong to a man like me.
