Maybe
The last month had been the hottest either Luca or Alex had experienced. Luca’s father had lifted the “grounding” and Luca was allowed to resume normal activity as long as he had his security detail around. He was able to hide it though by inviting Alex over this place or the club more than he went over to Alex’s. They had fucked so much that Alex felt like his hole was permanently stretched to fit Luca inside of him.
And it was about to be stretched again. Alex was straddling Luca on the sofa in his office in the club as the music thumped around them. Luca pushed up, his cock like a steel pipe about to burst from his tight jeans. Alex moaned as Luca ran his hands up his back then back down to squeeze Alex’s round buttocks.
“Fuck I want to taste you.” Alex whispered into Luca’s mouth.
“I want to choke you till you pass out.” Luca threatened. He grabbed some of Alex’s hair and pulled him back. “Fuck, you’re so hot.” He said as he sucked on Alex’s collar bone, leaving behind a hickey.
“Luca…” Alex moaned as he groped Luca’s biceps. He flexed in response and it turned Alex on even more. His own cock throbbing in his pants. “Luca…” He was ready, he could feel his hole aching to slide down on Luca’s thick Italian cock. He was ready to be stretched.
Bang, bang, bang.
Or maybe not…
“Boss, you decent?” It was Adams’ voice.
“Fucking Adam.” Alex groaned as he went into kiss Luca again.
“Go away Adam.” Luca slipped the command out between Alex’s lips.
“Boss, it’s important. I’ve got…business to discuss. It’s about Al.” Adam spoke awkwardly threw the door.
“Fuck…” Luca groaned, rolling his head back. His hands fell to Alex’s hips. “I gotta handle this babe.” He kissed him again.
“But-”
“I know. I’m sorry. It’s important. Al is a…distributor.” Of drugs. But Luca couldn’t tell him that.
“Babe.” Alex groaned, reaching down and giving Luca’s cock a nice squeeze through the pants. “Can’t you tell him to come back in a bout ten minutes?”
“Boss.” Adam repeated.
“Huh!” Luca gasped as Alex worked his hand on his shaft. “I want to more than anything. But I’ve needed to talk to Al about some important business stuff and he’s been dodging me.” Luca explained. Al had lost some money…a lot of it and Luca was pissed because his father was pissed about it. “Gimme a minute Adam!” Luca shouted out to him when he heard Adam knock again.
“Fine.” Alex huffed, standing up and readjusting himself. He wasn’t happy and Luca could tell.
“Here.” Luca stood and walked over to his desk. He pulled out his keys and took his apartment key off of it and the fob. “Why don’t you go wait for me at my place. I’ll be done here soon anyway, club closes in an hour. This won’t take long. Promise.” He walked back over to Alex and pulled him in, kissing him hard.
“You sure? How will you get in?” Alex asked taking the fob and key.
“You can buzz me up once I get home I’ll call you.” They kissed again and Alex reached around to squeeze Luca’s ass. “Mmm, don’t start that now.” He pulled away.
“Fine, but you’ve got to eat me out for an hour when you get home.” Alex teased as he grabbed his jacket from the arm of the sofa. “And I’ll be counting.”
“I bet you will.” Luca grinned.
Alex opened the door. “Adam,” He nodded to the man. “great timing as always.” Alex noticed two men behind him holding up a third, his head lolled lazily to the side. His eye swollen shut and black, blood oozing from a cut above his eyebrow, nose and lips bloodied.
“Sorry Alex.” Adam apologized. Adam stepped to the side to cover the man when he noticed Alex notice him.
“Oh, my god! What happened to him?” Alex asked.
“We – uh – found him at a bar down the street. He’d been in a fight.” Adam lied. Luca had instructed his employees to keep their work hidden from Alex until Luca found the right time to tell him. Adam also hadn’t told Giovanni – no one under Luca’s employ had – about Alex and Luca’s growing relationship.
“Is he okay, he looks like he needs a hospital.” Alex tried to step forward, driven by his instincts as a First Responder, but Luca grabbed his arm.
“I’ll have Adam take him after we have a word about the missing booze he said got delivered but never did.” Luca lied. He hated lying to Alex, but it was a necessity for now.
“Luca. He needs a doctor now.” Alex insisted but Luca couldn’t let Alex get involved right now. His men’s loyalty was only conditional. They’d keep the secret of Alex unless it infringed on the business, then they’d be forced to tell Giovanni. Luca needed Alex to leave now.
“And he’ll get one, I promise.” Luca said to Alex in a voice that held finality. Alex didn’t say anything else, something in Luca’s eyes told him he shouldn’t. He nodded. “I’ll see you at home.” He bent down and kissed him goodbye.
“See you at home…” Alex said, not realizing what he was saying. All he could hear was Cody’s words in the back of his head telling him that Luca was a part of some shady business dealings. Alex walked down the steps and out the back door to his car with a pit in his stomach and his heart feeling heavy.
It wasn’t the first thing Alex had seen that made him feel uneasy. Luca had been called away in the middle of the night once and returned surrounded by a sharp, smoky smell that felt dense and heavy like a fog. He’d taken a call on a date once and spoke angrily in hushed Italian into the phone. Alex didn’t know much Italian, but he swore he heard Luca say “kill” or something like it. Once in his bathroom he’d noticed some blood one of Luca’s dirty shirts in the laundry, but Luca had no wounds.
Small things here and there that made him wonder if Cody was right. But then Luca would explain things away or distract him with sex and Alex would forget in a cock-fog. He always told himself he’d ask about it later but then Luca would buy him a new outfit, get him flowers, or spoil him in some other way and he would once again forget all about it.
Not this time…. He thought to himself as he drove to Luca’s.
*****
Alex sat on Luca’s bed watching TV waiting for Luca to return. He’d texted that he was on his way home about twenty minutes prior so he should be home soon. Alex was determined to talk to Luca about all the things he’d noticed. There had to be a reasonable explanation anyway.
There had to be.
There had to be.
When Luca texted him he was in the lobby Alex got up and buzzed him up using the button by the front door then he went back to the bedroom to wait. He turned off the TV and sat at the foot of the bed, patient.
“Oh honey I’m home.” Luca sang out with a chuckle. “Alex, babe where are you?”
“In the room.” He answered. Okay…here goes. Time to confront him about – shit…
Luca walked into the bedroom, naked. Fully naked with a hard erect, thick, eight inches. Standing straight out. It throbbed, swollen. Luca’s balls hung low and full of semen waiting to shoot home deep into Alex’s pussy.
Fuck… Alex’s thoughts ran wild wondering what he’d do first to that cock. No! He thought to himself. Ask him about the bloody man.
“Uhm-” Alex’s voice came out in a high-pitched whimper. He cleared his throat. “I – er – want to talk about…” Luca walked forward, his glorious cock swung from side to side, his balls bouncing against his thigh softly with each step.
“Talk about? What?” Luca asked, reaching out and grabbing Alex’s hand. He pulled it to his torso and slowly lowered it.
“Uhm…” Alex mumbled as his hand ran through the light hair on Luca’s chest, then down his defined abs. His horniness overpowered him, the sight of Luca naked, his scent – musk – filled his nostrils and melted away his thoughts. I’ll ask him in the morning. Alex thought to himself as Luca traced a thumb along Alex’s bottom lip.
“What did you want to talk about?” Luca asked, looking down with a hungry look in his eyes. Alex simply moaned and kissed his lips to Luca’s pulsing pink cockhead. “That’s right baby, kiss it first.” Luca smiled as Alex opened his mouth and swallowed him inch by inch until his nose met Luca’s pubes. “Fuuuuck…” Luca bucked into Alex’s face and threw his head back. He laid one hand on Alex’s head and egged him on. Telling him to keep going.
And he did.
*****
“Oh FUCK Luca! Right there!” Alex begged. It was the next morning and he was currently riding his boyfriend. Luca was beneath him and was gripping Alex’s sensitive, plump, tits and bucking up into him quickly. Alex bounced up and down by the force, his voice sounded like when you spoke into a fan. “Oh my god keep going!” Alex threw his head back screaming in pleasure. The sound of Luca’s thrusts bouncing off the walls.
“Fuck yeah baby!” Luca growled. “I love the way your body jiggles when I fuck you. Fuck!” He exclaimed, transfixed by Alex’s bouncing body.
“Oh god!” Alex moaned, his own cock slapping against Luca’s abs sending shots and splatters of precum all over his torso. The sticky liquid covered him. “Huh!” Alex sucked in as Luca leaned up and bit his nipple, wrapping his thick arms around Alex.
“Mmm.” Luca growled again. Circling his tongue then sucking on the tit. “Fuck.” Luca moaned as he flipped them over and kept fucking Alex in missionary now. “Fuck you’re so sexy.” He kissed Alex.
“Oh god Luca! You’re hitting it!” Alex convulsed, arching into Luca as he pistoned away at Alex’s tender cunt. “You’re hitting it!” He moaned with each thrust Luca hit Alex’s prostate, causing a heat to rise deep in him. He started to feel like he needed to pee. Alex wrapped his legs around Luca’s hips and pulled him deeper and deeper with each thrust.
“Fuck baby, moan for me!” Luca slapped Alex’s ass cheek and rutted into him a few hard times. Alex felt close. He was about to cum. About to erupt.
“I’m – fuck I’m gonna – Luca baby! I’m gonna cum!” Alex panted. Luca’s sweaty body drove into him and the scent of his manliness pushed him closer. “Oh god!” Alex screamed dragging his nails down Luca’s back.
“Fuck baby!” Sweat dripped off his forehead and landed on Alex’s lip, he licked it up and the salty liquid did it. “Cum for me!” Luca commanded and the floodgate fell.
“Ah!” Alex whimpered, one hand clasped Luca’s hip while the other braced against the headboard. His body tensed and he felt his pussy throb and tighten around Luca’s hard pipe. Alex’s cum went everywhere, it shot up and coated Luca’s chest hair, spewed and arched to the side landing all over the bed.
“Fuck!” Luca tried to hold on and keep going but Alex’s hole gripped him and wouldn’t let him go, he couldn’t pull out or move anymore. “Fuck! I’m cumming!” Luca growled and his body shuddered, toes curled and his face scrunched. Alex opened his eyes from his own orgasm in time to see his boyfriends adorable “O” face. He smiled below him as he felt the waves of ecstasy roll over him.
Luca collapsed on top of Alex.
“Fuck…” Alex moaned, Luca’s cock still throbbing in time to his heartbeat inside of him. He felt warm and full. A good feeling. He secretly wished he could get pregnant. Wanting to carry Luca’s child. He started to softly run a hand down Luca’s back, tracing his finger up and down.
“Mmm,” Luca’s head was on Alex’s chest, eyes closed. “that feels nice.”
“So do you.” Alex kissed the top of Luca’s head. Luca was still hard and deep inside of him. “Think you can keep going?”
“Sorry, I think I’m spent. Besides, you’ve gotta get to work.” Luca reminded Alex and he groaned.
“Ugh, I’ll call out.”
“No, you won’t” Luca pulled up and slid out of Alex with a satisfying pop. Both of them moaned at the feeling. “Damn that’s sexy.” Luca said standing up. Alex had his legs propped up and spread open. His hole red and leaking his cum. “I’ll have to get Gilda to wash the sheets again.” He commented while walking over to the bathroom door.
“Come back to bed.” Alex rolled over to his side and posed like a French girl to seduce Luca back for another round, he could see his cock was still hard.
“Mmm,” Luca bit his lip at the sight. “How about I fuck you one more time in the shower, but you’ve gotta get to work babe.” Alex got up and smiled.
“Deal.” Alex smiled.
Luca’s phone rang as Alex walked past Luca into the bathroom. Luca smacked Alex’s ass hard, leaving a read handprint behind. “I’ll meet you in there, I’m gonna answer this real quick.” He smiled as Alex gave him a little shake.
Alex turned on the faucet and then grabbed two towels while the water heated up. That’s when he heard Luca speaking angrily in Italian again. He quietly tip-toed to the door to hear better.
“Fallo cazzo!” He whisper-screamed. “Sono occupato questo momento ma ci vediamo club tra circa ora! E se non vuole parlare minaccialo. Digli che chiameremo padre!” He hung up and threw the phone on the bed with a groan. “Alex.” He turned and saw Alex standing there. Alex had understood something about the club, his father and threatening. A pit grew in his stomach but he smiled and leaned in the doorway.
“You sound sexy when you speak Italian.” He played it off. Luca grinned.
“Do I?” He stepped closer and grabbed Alex’s love handles, kissing him. “Entra quella doccia cosi posso scoparti.” He grinned into another kiss, his cock growing stiff again.
They stepped into the shower and the water fell over them as Luca turned Alex around and knelt down so he could eat him out. The pit was still in Alex’s stomach.
He needed to know what was going on. He couldn’t put it off any longer. It was getting to the point where Luca wasn’t just some guy – and fast. Alex needed to be sure that Luca wasn’t some shady drug dealer. He needed to know who he was falling for.

“That’s the fourth one! Fuck!” Giovanni slammed the table, he was pissed. Fuming. He looked at Joe who stood with his security team, heads bowed when he spoke the next sentence.
“We lost eight men this time.” He pulled out a folder from his briefcase. They were files of the fallen soldiers.
“It’s war Pop. Let me handle it.” Marco, the oldest son spoke up.
“No, your mother would kill me and I won’t have you fighting my battles.” Giovanni reasoned.
“It’s our war Pop.” Luca backed up his brother. He was just as angry as his father. They all were. The energy in the room was hot. Luca had been trying to handle what he could without telling his father. The club moved some product and Luca handle some other business for the family and did his best to keep everything level, but the Ricci’s were pushing hard. Still upset their heir was now an invalid.
“No boys. I don’t want any of you near this. The Ricci’s will want blood for blood. I still want you all laying low. I don’t want to lose anyone else.” Giovanni’s words were final. The boys wouldn’t argue further, but Luca would still beat the shit out of that fucker Al. He was in the club now. He’d had to make a detour to the meeting his father called.
Luca was almost positive Al had “lost” his money to the Ricci’s. He also thought he was selling their storehouse locations to them, but Luca couldn’t prove it yet. He had a member of the security team looking into it though on the low. He wanted to handle it for his father, prove he could do it. He was also hoping that if he solved this it would win him favor and make it easier to tell his father that he had an outsider for a boyfriend.
A boyfriend Luca was almost positive he was in love with. Like in LOVE with. Not the kind of fuck-fueled, you’re hot, I’m hot, surface level love that’s brittle and shallow. Luca was falling in the kind of love with Alex that was defined by getting annoyed when he hogged the covers (which Alex did), but just getting another blanket about it because his comfort was more important. The kind of love where Luca had to wait for Alex to brush his teeth after eating coconut because he was allergic so they could kiss.
Luca needed to tell his father about Alex.
“Dad,” Antonio spoke. “if you won’t let us handle this what do you want us to do then? Just hide?” Antonio was a fighter. He didn’t like the laying low plan.
“No, I want you boys to go about normal business. Just keep a lower profile. Open the restaurant like you do every day Marco. Tony, go to the deli, slice meat. Sell it. Keep the back door open – guarded – but open.” Giovanni instructed. “Rosa. I need you to get all you can. Figure out how to counter their raids. I want to flood the ranks with wrong information. Only those of us in this room know where anything is, or when anything happens until it’s about to happen.” Giovanni gave orders and everyone nodded understanding.
“I won’t have a full out war in the streets. I want this over. I want it done.” Giovanni continued. “Someone figure out how to get this finished. Now.” Everyone stood, instructions received, and left. Giovanni stayed behind, fuming. Thinking. Trying to find a way out of this mess without any more unnecessary bloodshed.

“Unit 142 returning to the house now.” Jane says into the walkie. Her and Alex get back into the ambulance. They had just dropped off a stabbing victim at the hospital. He had called his wife a few choice words and she finally snapped. After Alex heard what he had called her, he didn’t blame her and he’d live anyway. She’d clipped his side and he called the police to be dramatic, insisted on getting stitches before his lungs fell out.
Alex had to bite his tongue not to laugh at the man’s hysterics. It had been hilarious.
“So, how are things going with your new man?” Jane asked about Luca.
“Fine, but there are some things.” He responded. She raised a brow in question. “Something Cody said. He’s owns a that club Velluto and Cody said that the only way someone as young as him can own a club like that in Arcadia is if he’s fronting for something.” Alex rolled his eyes, but deep down he’d started to believe Cody’s words.
“Velluto? He own’s Velluto?” Jane took a left turn. Alex nodded. “And you said his name is Luca?”
“Yup, Luca Moretti.” Alex laughed, saying it an Italian accent (a bad one).
“Alex.” Jane chuckled dryly. “The Moretti’s have ties to the mob.” She spoke in a matter-of-fact tone.
“What?” Alex laughed now but it masked his sudden nervousness. “No they don’t.” He tried to convince himself he wasn’t falling for a mobster. He could feel his heart beating faster though it wasn’t from the information he was being told.
“Yeah.” She laughed again. “My great uncle used to work at one of the Bancroft shipping warehouses and he saw them coming and going all the time. Always moving boxes that weren’t on the books.” They stopped at a red light, the car in front of them not turning right even though it had the opportunity to. Leaving them stuck waiting to turn right after the light turned green.
“That can’t be true. Luca told me how he got the club, it’s from family money.” Alex explained trying to laugh, but it stuck in his throat. His mouth was dry now. His stomach flipping while his brain and heart started waging a battle. “It can’t be.” Alex repeated quieter.
“And why is that.” The light turned green and the car in front of them turned without using it’s blinker. “Oh I fucking hate that.” Jane commented, following the car in a right turn.
“Because it just can’t be. Luca is sweet and funny. He’s a gentleman. Luca is…is…” Alex tried clawing for information about Luca other than what he knew directly which was, now that Alex thought about it, the bare minimum. They’d been dating a few months and Luca had only told him about his siblings – how many there were and their names – and that was basically it. He didn’t know a lot about Luca’s family and his background. Alex hadn’t thought to ask more. He’d been to dickmatized. “I mean there have been a few things here and there that have been questionable, but Luca always has a good explanation and it makes sense. Sure, maybe he buys some illegal liquor, I’ve seen some evidence of that – but I’ve never seen anything more than a joint, no guns. Nothing that screams ‘MOBSTER’. He’s a good guy, not some vicious killer.” Alex tried to reason to Jane.
“I’m not saying he isn’t a good guy.” Jane passed a slow driver. “I’m just saying be careful. My great uncle never lied – ruined Santa Claus for me – and he told us to be careful around the Bancrofts and Moretti’s. He also said garlic doesn’t do anything to Vampires though, so maybe he was missing a few feathers.” She tried to make light at the end when she saw Alex’s expression.
“I think I love him Jane.” Alex said as Jane took another turn and the radio started to tell them to respond to another call. Alex reached forward and hit the siren buttons so that Jane could hit the gas.
“Maybe I’m wrong.” Jane tried to soothe Alex. She could see that she’d obviously spooked him. Shattered the illusion, cleared the cock-fog.
“Maybe.” Alex said, thoughts reeling as he and Jane drove the ambulance to the next job.

“That movie was hilarious.” Luca said as he and Alex walked out of the theatre. They held hands as they walked down the sidewalk. It was late, the latest showing so there weren’t many people. It was just them and the streetlights really. And that’s all Luca needed – no, wanted. Just him and Alex in the streetlights, a romantic scene like in one of those old movies. Maybe a musical. Luca did like them and could carry a tune, maybe he’d sing to Alex someday.
“I love a good comedy.” Alex bumped Luca’s shoulder. “I like what happens after the movies too.” He insinuated reaching up and kissing Luca’s jaw.
“Well, let’s get home then. Unless you want me to take you here and now.” Luca dropped his voice as he playfully pushed Alex towards the wall of the building they walked by.
“Maybe I’ll let you.” Alex laughed as he dropped Luca’s hand and leaned against the wall in a pose that said: ‘oh please Mr. scary man in the alley, don’t hurt me’. Luca laughed and closed in.
“Oh, you wanna repeat the mirror maze.” He leaned down and kissed him hard. Pushing him into the wall. “You want me to turn you around and fuck you in the street for everyone to see?” The two kissed again, harder this time. Neither could breathe and Luca felt the blood rush to his crotch.
“No.” Alex broke the kiss off. “I want to go back to your place and take our time.” He ran his hands up Luca’s toned body causing Luca to suck in a breath.
“Fuck Alex you have no clue what that does to me.” He raised a hand up and traced Alex’s lips with a thumb. He was so beautiful. His eyes drew him in with their brightness, lips called to him, his voice, him. Luca, for a moment, though he didn’t deserve someone so beautiful and good. “I love you.” He said without thinking. Shit, too soon. Luca froze, hoping that Alex hadn’t heard him – or that if he had he’d respond in kind or at least with some kind of positive response.
Alex froze too, not believing what he’d heard. The man looking down at him had just told him he loved him and Alex didn’t know what to say. Alex had reservations after his talks with Jane and Cody, after seeing suspicious things – hearing them. Alex could feel Luca’s heart beating faster after the confession and Alex’s started to catch up. He felt the same, he felt like he was falling hard and fast. But he still couldn’t get over the suspicions and rumors, the whispers, that surrounded Luca Moretti.
“I love you too.” Alex replied before having time to think. His heart answering before his brain. Luca’s heart nearly exploded as his grin spread across his face and Alex leaned back up to kiss Luca.
“Let’s go home so we can take our time.” Luca’s hand snaked back between Alex’s fingers and he pulled him off the wall as the two started walking back towards where Luca had parked down the street. All Luca could hear was the sound of his and Alex’s heartbeats as he reached into his pocket to get his keys. He opened Alex’s door, “After you-”
There was loud pop and a burning, sharp pain in Luca’s shoulder. He collapsed, blood splattered everywhere.
“Luca!” Alex screamed as Luca crumpled. “Luca! Oh my god!” Alex screamed again.
Luca bit his tongue not to scream as he looked around to see where the shot had come from. He didn’t see anyone but he heard tires start to spin and smelled burning rubber.
“Fuck!” Luca shouted as Alex kept pressure on the wound. It was the top of the shoulder; Luca knew he’d be fine. Felt like a graze more than anything.
“Luca! Oh god – I’ve got – I’m gonna call 911.” Alex started to reach for his phone and Luca responded, his mind returning to him.
“No!” He seized Alex’s wrist. “No cops.”
“Luca, you’ve been shot!” Alex argued.
“I’ll be fine, just get me back to your place!” Luca gritted his teeth as he sat up, propping himself against his car. “Alex please.” He couldn’t get the cops involved for obvious reasons.
“Luca no, you need to get to a hospital.” Alex argued again, tearing Luca’s shirt to get a better look at the wound. Luca couldn’t go to a hospital. He also couldn’t go to his place or his families. Anyone who saw him like this would report it to his father and it would risk war. Luca knew who did this, it was obvious. The Moretti’s owed the Ricci’s a blood debt and now they probably think they’d gotten it. Hopefully they didn’t know that Luca had survived the failed hit.
“No dammit. I said no. No cops. Just take me back to your apartment. I’ll be fine. I just need to clean this up.” He’d never talked to Alex this way.
“Luca…” Alex spoke with his mouth open, awed at Luca’s sudden shift in attitude. All traces of the sweet, kind boyfriend he’d had now gone.
“Alex, either help me or get gone.” Luca meant to say this with the intention it would make Alex safer to not be around him, but the pain was wearing his patience thin. His words, he saw, hurt Alex. “I’m sorry Alex, I just…please, I need you to take me back to your place so I can clean this up.”
“Luca I don’t…I don’t know.” Alex was terrified, scared shitless. He didn’t know what to do, but here his boyfriend was, bleeding on the sidewalk asking him to help. Alex couldn’t think straight. He was worried the man who’d shot at him would come back. He had questions. Why had a man shot at him? Who was he? Was this because of Jane telling him that Luca was mob.
“Please Alex.” Luca looked up at Alex who knelt in front of him.
“Get in the car.” He helped Luca up and into the passenger seat then took a quick look around before running around to the driver side.
I’m getting answers. Alex thought to himself. He put the car in drive and pulled out.
