Angel of Darkness (STOPPED TEMPORARILY)

Kai

I woke up the next morning, a contented smile tugging at the corners of my lips as I glanced over at Angelina sleeping peacefully next to me. The soft morning light kissed her skin, highlighting her delicate features and the tousled waves of her hair. She looked so serene and beautiful, a sight that never failed to take my breath away.

As I shifted closer, my eyes trailed over the marks I had left on her neck and collarbone the night before. The sight made a smirk play on my lips, a testament to the intensity of our passion. I couldn't help but feel a surge of possessiveness, knowing the evidence of our connection adorned her body.

Leaning in, I gently pressed my lips against her neck, placing a lingering kiss on one of the marks. A soft groan escaped her lips as she stirred, her eyes fluttering open to meet mine. She smiled drowsily, her voice barely above a whisper.

"Good morning," she murmured, her voice filled with warmth and affection.

"Good morning, beautiful," I replied, my voice equally tender. I couldn't help but feel a surge of pride at the sight of her, at the way she looked at me with such adoration.

But then, she shifted slightly, a slight grimace crossing her features. "Fuck, I'm sore as fuck," she complained, her voice laced with a mix of pleasure and discomfort.

I couldn't resist teasing her, a playful glint in my eyes. "Well, you did ask for it, didn't you? You wanted it rough, remember?"

She playfully swatted my arm, a mock glare in her eyes. "Oh, don't act so innocent, Kai. You know damn well how much I enjoyed it."

I chuckled, the sound rumbling deep in my chest. "I'm glad to hear that, Angel. But maybe next time, I'll go a little easier on you. Or not."

She groaned, a mixture of frustration and amusement. "You're such a tease."

Leaning in, I captured her lips in a gentle kiss, my touch conveying both affection and desire. "I can't help it, my love. You bring out that side of me."

She sighed contentedly against my lips, her arms wrapping around me. "Well, I suppose I'll have to endure it then."

With a playful smirk, I whispered against her lips, "Endure it? Or enjoy it?"

A mischievous glint danced in her eyes as she whispered back, "Both."

And as we lay there, tangled in each other's embrace, I couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude for the woman beside me. Our connection, both in and out of the bedroom, was a rare and cherished gift-one that I would never take for granted.

So, with a whispered "good morning" and a playful banter that filled the air, we embraced the day ahead, ready to continue our journey of pleasure, love, and unyielding passion.

After our intimate morning, we reluctantly untangled ourselves from each other's embrace and got ready for the day. As we dressed, I couldn't help but engage Angelina in conversation, my playful nature always finding its way to the surface, even amidst the dangerous world we lived in.

"You know, Angel, that wasn't even my best performance last night," I remarked with a smirk, glancing at her through the mirror.

She raised an eyebrow, a hint of intrigue in her eyes. "Oh really, Kai? And what makes you say that?"

I turned to face her, my gaze intense yet playful. "Well, my love, being the boss of a Mafia family has its perks. Let's just say I have a few surprises in store for you."

Her lips curved into a sly smile, her eyes dancing with excitement. "I can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve, Kai. You never fail to keep me on my toes."

I stepped closer, my voice low and filled with desire. "Just remember, Angel, pleasure is not the only thing I excel at. I'll always protect you, no matter what."

A softness filled her eyes as she reached out to caress my cheek. "And I trust you, Kai. With my life."

As we finished getting ready, Angelina mentioned that she had to head to work. I nodded, understanding the responsibilities that awaited her. But before she could leave, I couldn't resist teasing her a little more, even in the midst of our dangerous lifestyle.

"So, my love, while you're out there taking care of business, remember to keep your guard up," I said, a playful glint in my eyes. "The world can be a dangerous place, especially for someone as captivating as you."

She smirked, a mix of defiance and confidence in her expression. "Don't worry, Kai. I can handle myself. But I'll keep an eye out for any unexpected surprises."

I leaned in, pressing a passionate kiss to her lips, conveying both desire and reassurance. "I have no doubt about that, Angel. But remember, I'm always just a phone call away."

With a final goodbye, I watched her leave, a sense of pride and protectiveness swelling within me. I wanted to ensure her safety, even when she was away from me. So, I discreetly approached one of my trusted men, instructing him to keep an eye on both Angelina and Liliana, without arousing suspicion. I emphasized the importance of remaining inconspicuous, knowing that Liliana's wrath was not to be underestimated.

Once I had given my orders, I turned to head back inside but was interrupted by the familiar voice of my brother, Nicholas. A playful grin danced on his lips as he approached, his eyes filled with mischief.

"Kai, my dear brother," he began teasingly, "I must say, I heard some rather interesting noises coming from your room last night. Care to fill me in?"

I chuckled, shaking my head at his curiosity. "You have quite the imagination, Nicholas. But it's nothing you need to concern yourself with."

He raised an eyebrow, a knowing glimmer in his eyes. "Oh, come on, Kai. You know I'm just teasing. I'm happy for you, truly."

A genuine smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I clapped him on the shoulder. "Thank you, brother. Your support means a lot to me."

Nicholas grinned, his eyes twinkling. "Just remember, my dear brother, don't let your personal life distract you too much from the business at hand. The family needs us."

I nodded, the weight of our Mafia empire pressing upon me. "You're right, Nicholas. Our duty to the family always comes first."

With a final exchange of brotherly banter, Nicholas left me to my thoughts. As I stood there, a sense of contentment washed over me. I knew that the road ahead was filled with countless dangers, but with Angelina by my side, I felt invincible. Together, we would navigate the treacherous waters of the Mafia world, our love and loyalty serving as an unbreakable shield.
