Chapter Twenty-Seven
“Why did you tell her?” Paolo asked once they both entered their suite.
“She could see right through me, I already told Matteo to tell her! God, Paolo! do you think I WANT to be in that position??”
Peter yelled at his guard slash lover then grabbed himself bottled water from the mini-fridge. Paolo looked at him, letting him finish his drink before slowly coming to him.
“Don’t fucking yell at me, calm yourself down.” Paolo’s voice was low and deep.
“I just… she’s the best person I’ve ever known. She doesn’t deserve this.” Peter went to him when Paolo invites him by opening his arms for him.
“I know, I’m sorry. But we’re working on it. I’m not going to burden you with our new findings but we’re closing in on him. Matteo will let her know everything he had informed me earlier. Look, trust us?”
“I do, it’s just that I’m so tired. I think I’m going to lay down…”
“Okay, I have to finish up on some stuff. I’ve put more guards on the perimeter. But here…”
Paolo gave him a Sig Sauer nine millimeter, and Peter backed away from him refusing to take it.
“I can’t, it’s been a while, what if…”
“I know you had been trained for it, I’ve checked your file…”
“… how do you…”
“… I hacked into your personal file, look, Peter… I need to know that you’ll be able to take care of yourself without me by your side. Antonio is very dangerous, that man is driven and can act like a rabid dog. He doesn’t have anything more to lose.”
Paolo put the gun in his hand, while his other hand holds his neck possessively and rubbed his thumb making Peter look straight at him.
“He has been hiding the fact, none of us knows about his other family. None of us even know about him and your boss. There’s a whole other story behind his name. But the point is, he’s a very dangerous and borderline psychopath. I need you to be safe.”
Paolo decided to put the gun on the table and gave him a very passionate kiss. Peter’s hands were to his chest in seconds, he had missed him. He had longed for his kisses and Paolo’s words for wanting him safe echoed in his head lulling him as his kisses were deeper and more possessive.
“I really need to go…” Paolo whispered huskily in his ear, while his hands were trailing down to his sexy ass gripping them to his liking.
“… mm.. hmm…” Peter replied in between their hot scorching kiss.
“You need to stop, Peter…”
Peter moaned louder and pulled Paolo by his chest gun straps while he walked back to the bedroom. Paolo was groaning to the sexy invitation realizing that he needs to unlatch himself from the alluring pretty boy.
But then Paolo knew he had lost his willpower when Peter kneels and unbuckle him. He pushed Paolo to sit after he lowered his briefs along with his pants.
“Fuck, baby… you’re so fucking good at this.” Paolo moaned his name over and over again and Peter was so hard from hearing his grunts alone. He was licking Paolo like a lollipop and it was making him crazy with desire.
He pulled Peter up and quickly told him to strip naked while he did the same and took the rest of his clothes off.
“On all fours, I need to do this quickly.”
But what Peter didn’t expect was him smacking his ass hard, then kissing his spine sensually slow. The naughty and sexy play was making Peter leak with precum and Paolo easily reached under him and lazily stroke his handsome assistant while his length caressed his backside.
Paolo was finally out of the room half an hour later, it was the fastest he could get away from the sexy assistant. Peter was red, but extremely satisfied when Paolo had left him for god knows how long.
He was setting up his workstation in one of the empty bedrooms one floor below their suite. He didn’t want to go too far and should Peter needs him.
While on the other suite Matteo was telling Amara about Antonio. Their surrounding was quiet when he explained to her about who Antonio really was.
“… and he had another family from his mother’s side while he knew that he was betrothed to another family from his father’s side…”
Amara kept on listening to him, while her heartbreaks. Love, I fucking love him. So stupid!
“Turns out your dad bought out his wife’s family business. The family airline business was suffocating but the decision to sell out had made his wife kill herself and his young son in the process when she decided to crash the helicopter she was navigating.”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Matteo wiped a tear that she sheds then kissed her hair. But he kept on telling her about Antonio, knowing she has to know the whole truth about him.
“… Antonio loved his wife, and he managed to slip under our watch. You need to understand that he was catering to our legal side of the business and Leonardo was not hands-on with each of our men. We would meet up every couple of months and that was about it. In our organization, it was all about loyalty, and everyone knows what to expect once they betrayed their oath.”
Matteo looked at Amara, making sure she was still listening. Then he carries on with his words.
“We think that was the trigger, from there he was arranging his plans to get to you and making it his goal to take your family down.”
At that exact moment, she looked at him and told him to stop. She was feeling betrayed and used. She sits up and wiped her tears that wouldn’t stop falling. Amara hated herself for having the feelings, but she knows exactly that she was crying for something else.
How could people do this? what did her dad ever do wrong? what was her sin? why was she made to endure this?
Her mind wanders as the questions were left unanswered.
“You should go, finish your work. Find him, kill him. I will rest. You won’t find him faster by being with me.” She said slowly getting off the bed and pulling Matteo then caressing his face gently.
Matteo saw such determination and strength from a woman who had been in ruins just moments before. And he knows at that exact moment her strength had made him fall in love with her.
He knows that he would die for her and at the same time he knows that he would never be with her. That someday he would have to forget about her. He knows at that moment he admires her and knows she deserves someone much better than his killer self.
Yes, our brute Italian underboss believes that he needs to stay away from her once he was done with Antonio. Hmm… men!
