Chapter 8

Alessio

"Alessio, I think it's time for you to go home." Odella stands on the other side of my desk.

"Are there any more missions?"

"No, sir. You've done all the S-class missions in the state of New York. Any others will be a week-long mission, at least," she adds. I click my tongue. I could take the missions, but I fear what Alice is going to say. Or not say of me leaving for that long.

I bite my tongue. "Okay," I begin to pack my things. "Any word on the child?"

"No, sir. I haven't had the chance to with all the traveling and missions you've been doing so often."

"That's alright. Find out what you can when you have the time."

Odella shuffles where she stands. "Sir, how are you?"

"Fine," I close my briefcase and head for the door. Odella takes a stand in front of me, and I look down at her.

"No, I mean. How are you doing with everything? How is Alice? I haven't seen her since the...since the funeral." She avoids my eyes under her glasses.

"Fine," I lie. "We're fine." We are not fine. Alice is just a shell of her old self that was so full of life and vigor. And I'm...I'm just broken. I can't bear to look at her. I can't watch her every day and wallop. I have to be strong, but it's so goddamn hard.

"Sir...Alessio. You can talk to me. I know you're not fine. And anyone that goes through what you two went through is not fine. Sir, I'm sorry, but I'm scared for you. I am so freaking scared that the path you are going on is gonna lead to you dying Alessio and me- I don't want that happening to you. Tara and I have been talking, and we think you should take some time off."

"What?"

"Sir, I know-"

"Who the hell do you think you are!" Odella took a step back. "I am in charge, and you and Tara going behind my back and discussing my personal life are out of order!"

"Alessio," she starts.

"Stop whispering behind my back. Stop doing whatever you think you're doing and trying to help. There is no helping. There is nothing you can say or do that will change the outcome of my life." I leave before she can say another word.

A ring fills my car. I click my tongue as I answer it. "What, Tara!"

"Why the hell would you talk to Odella like that?"

"Like a subordinate that got too into their boss's personal life?" I question.

"You know damn well our relationship with you isn't just boss and his subordinates. Odella is your friend, as much as Leo and I. And for you to talk to her like that when she just tried to help is unforgivable." I remain silent as she talks. "I know what you went through hit hard. It broke you and Alice-but that's no reason to try to kill yourself or be an asshole to people who care. All we wanted to do was be there for you, Alessio. But you're making it very hard, friend. We love you and care about you."

I stop driving and lay my head on the steering wheel. "I know," I mutter. "I know...it's just-"

"It's hard. I know, friend," she says. "I want you to feel better. I'm not saying you should b your old sarcastic self whose always holding back his smile tomorrow. I'm just asking can you try to seek a bit of happiness again. Because I can't bear another day seeing you like this."

"I know," I began to choke on the tears that were fighting to come out. "Can you tell Odella I'm sorry?"

"Sure."

"And can you tell Leo? I won't be in for a week or so. I'm gonna stay home with Alice."

"Yeah, sure. Do you want or need anything else?"

"No, do that for me, please. I can only leave that place to you, Tara."

"Sure thing Les, I'll see you when you get back," she says before hanging up.

I let out a sigh and drive to the pie place Alice, and I love. I order an entire pie and drive home. Alice and I need to talk-really talk and figure out what's going on with us. I need to clean out the nursery, and maybe we can go on a trip together to really clear our minds. We need something, a happy moment that will ensure that we will be okay in the future.

I park next to Alice's car that's covered in dust. She hasn't driven in months, and I'm afraid for her to anyways. I carry the pie into the house that's too quieter than ever. For a time, I thought that when I came home or to Alice's mother's home, I would see Alice on the couch. Her hair would be in a mess as she watched our daughter do something extraordinary.

Instead, I'm met with a cold desolate living room. I place my coat in the nearby closet. The pie feels warm under my hand as I walk up the stairs. I hope I can convince Alice to go somewhere with me. We can leave tonight or even in the next thirty minutes. I just want her out of this house.

I open the door instead of a dark room with Alice staring into space or asleep. I'm met with candles, roses on the ground, and Alice in lingerie. This is nothing what I was expecting when I came home.

"Hey," she smiles. She approaches me and places a hand on my chest. "I was waiting for you. I thought you would never come home." She looks down at my hands. "You brought me a pie? You're so kind, Alessio," she murmurs.

What is going on? When I left her a few days ago, she was nothing like this. She was still in bed, wearing one of my t-shirts that she hadn't changed in weeks. There was more brown than blonde in her hair, and she was too sad to even mutter a single complete sentence. Now, she's here wearing lingerie and actually talking to me.

"Alice, did something happen?"

"Oh...you mean this. Well," she grabs the pie and sets it on a nearby table. She turns her attention back to me and places her hand around my shoulders. "I missed you. I missed you so badly, Alessio," she says, followed by a kiss. I raise an eyebrow at this newfound Alice as she puts her lips to mine.

This isn't right. There's something wrong. This doesn't make any sense. It's as if her entire psyche has changed overnight. And as far as I'm concerned, she isn't taking her anti-depressants or any medications, from what Melissa told me. She continues to kiss me. The one moment she gives me to breathe. I look down at her.

"Alice, I wanted to talk."

"Can we talk after?" She begins to unbuckle my pants and gets on her knees in front of me.

"Yes...no. I- I wanted to know if you wanted to go on a trip? Away from everything to relax a bit."

Alice only smiles as she's on her knees in front of me. "Sure, yeah. Anything you want, Alessio. I just want to do this first." Alice is eager when she takes my pants off. "Goddamnit, please come off."

"Alice, why are you rushing?"

"Huh? I'm not rushing. It's just your stupid pants won't come off," she laughs off. "Can I have a bit of help?" I look down at Alice-she's eager, basically panting for my pants to come off.

I lower myself and pick Alice up. "Let's take this to the bed," I tell her.

SMUT WARNING

I place her on the bed and trail my hands along the curves of her body. She shudders at the slightest touch. How long has it been since we've done anything more than a kiss or a simple hug when we were drifting off to sleep. What caused you to change like this so quickly, Alice?

"I've missed you, Alessio," she says underneath me. "I want you so bad it hurts," she murmurs. "I've been waiting all day for you to come home. I had to start things on my own with how bad it was becoming." I run my tongue against her neck, and a soft moan escapes her lips.

I trade my tongue for my lips-leaving soft kisses along her neck and down to her collarbone. "Why the sudden urge? What happened?" I ask.

"So much, Alessio. Now can we stop talking and do this...please," she begs. "Please, let's do this. I only want to hear you whisper kind words in my ears while you make love to me." Alice leans forward and kisses me. Her soft, supple lips feel as if I'm returning home. Her now skinnier body still feels as warm and soft as before everything. My lips linger on hers a second less than what I want before I begin to trail kisses down her body. She grapples at my hair, "Alessio," she whispers as I reach her stomach.

Her body stiffens at the mere caress of her now empty belly. I look up at her with my lips lingering over her stomach. "Do you want me to stop?"

"No, no, don't stop Alessio," Alice assures me. I grip her thighs and spread them apart. Her sweet scent engulfs my entire nose and sends me into a ravenous place. I want to taste her. I miss her sweet taste on my tongue. I miss the way when she is about to come. Her pussy grips my tongue, begging for it to stay inside.

"Alice," I murmur as I grasp her underwear and pull them to the side. Her plump pussy is red and soaking already for me. I want to taste her and let her juices run down my chin. Her heat brushes onto my nose like a furnace. I ease closer, and I bury my face in her pussy. I press my lips to her clit, and a soft moan escapes her mouth. She bucks under my grasp as I begin to suck her clit, in the only way I know how-like it's mine.

It is mine, and it will be mine for the rest of our lives together.

"Alessio," she gasps. Her toes begin to curl, and she doesn't hold back her moans that take up the room. My cock stirs at the sounds of her unwavering pleasure. I want to hear it, Alice. I want to hear the sound of you cumming. I miss hearing your soft whimpers and the way you grasp my hair until your fingers go white, screaming my name. "Alessio," she almost screams. "I missed you so much. God, do not stop. Fuck," she curses, and I flick my tongue against her clit again.

Her hips buck against my mouth as she works for her own orgasm. I never stop worshiping her with my tongue. Alice deserves to be worshipped. She deserves to cum so hard that she sees stars. Let me give you euphoria, and worship you, Alice.

I grasp her ass and keep her where I want her. I suck her clit harder and put one finger inside of her, followed by a second with my tongue still on her clit. She grasps the sheet and lets out an audible yelp. Her pussy grasps my fingers, and that's it-she cums. Her pussy begins to leak with juices coating my face and her fingers.

Alice's body is shaking from pure, unfiltered pleasure. I don't bother to wipe my lips. It would be a waste not to taste her. I lick my lips and stare down at the heaving woman I love so much. Her eyes are closed, and I know she's fighting to stay conscious. "We're not finished yet, Alice," I tell her. "I'm not done with you."

I press my lips to hers, inviting her to taste the deliciousness of her cum that remains on my face. "Alice, do you like the taste on you on my lips?" She only nods, her head still high from her orgasm.

I smirk at the sight of her. "I love you." I grasp the helms of her panties and pull them down ever so slightly until the small piece of fabric is no more. "How do you want me?"

She turns her attention to me-her face is red, and I know the answer already. "I don't care. I just want you inside of me." I hastily take off my clothes until I'm stark naked in front of her. I grab her ankle and place a soft kiss on her calf, then toss her leg onto my shoulder.

"Hold on," I coax. My dick is rock hard as I ease inside of her. She whimpers as I enter her slick pussy that is already tightening around my dick. Alice is panting underneath me, and my dick is finally enveloped by her hot pussy with one hard thrust. She grasps the sheets and turns her head away from me, hoping to seek solace in the sheets. "Alice," I huff. "Look at me." She turns her attention to me, and small tears coat the sides of her face.

I lean down and kiss her tears. "Are you okay?" I ask with my dick buried inside of her.

"Yes. It's just been so long, Alessio. So please don't stop Alessio." I drop her leg from my shoulder and spread her as far as she will let me. I lean into the crook of her neck and thrust inside of her. I don't stop, thrusting inside of her at a slow rhythmic pace. Her tight pussy welcomes me over and over again as I fuck her. "Alessio," she gasps. She wraps her legs around my waist and bucks her hips meeting my thrusts.

"Alice," I groan inside of her. Inside of a place I know as my second home. She's so hot and warm inside. She fits me perfectly in such a way I have to think twice about all the other women I've been with. I continue to thrust inside of her, and Alice's moans pierce my eardrums.

"Faster, harder," she groans, which I do almost immediately. I lift her from the bed. I stay buried inside of her and kiss her. I kiss her as if I haven't seen her in years. Like this will be the last time I will ever kiss her. But this is not the last time-this is one of the millions more I will give her. It is my love for her I'm pouring out into her because it's hers.

Alice is my heart. She is my soul-my sun and stars and everything else she wants to be. She is my all and will continue to be my everything.

I quicken my pace inside of her. She bites down on my shoulder with her nails still gripping my back as if she's trying to rip me apart. My dick begins to pulse inside of her. I'm going to finish. I can't last much longer inside of her. "Alice, Alice," I repeat. "I'm about to-"

"Do it," she heaves. "Right inside me."

She moves her head from the crook of my neck and stares me in the eyes, and kisses me. And I cum-I cum inside of Alice, filling her without a second thought.

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter.
