Kiara:
“Rise and shine sleeping beauty” Nikolay said kissing my forehead making my nose scrunch as I opened my eyes. My green eyes meeting his blue ones to find him smiling over me knowing that I was exhausted after what we had done today. The morning was very long today, but I loved it, every second of it was lovely, no matter how painful it was, Nikolay made it worth it. The safety I felt in his cradling arms, the love I saw in his eyes. I couldn’t even describe it. No words could, at least I couldn’t think of anything to say about how I felt.
But to say that my body was sore would be an understatement, hell, my body felt like a thousand pounds and I couldn’t bring myself to think of how I was going to lift myself out of this bed. Not that Nikolay minded, he preferred me staying in bed and out of trouble when it came to situations like the ones I was putting myself in lately. Refusing to listen to him about staying home, I wanted to help
Nikolay:My arm was wrapped around Kiara who was laying down by my side, both of us stargazing, my left arm was under my head supporting it. I had suggested that we go inside the cottage a while ago, but my beauty was enjoying herself out here far too much to want to move from my arms let alone go inside. Plus, I had to admit, it was a beautiful night to be inside the house between four walls.“Princess” I called Kiara softly who hummed in response, raising her head to look at me, I had a blanket around her shoulders as goosebumps rose all over her body, the night air hitting the two of us, her more than me though.“Do you want us to go home baby girl?” I asked softly, Kiara shook her head and laid her head over my chest again, fisting my shirt. I laughed and tightened my arm around her, bringing her closer to me as I kissed the crown of her head “okay, do you want to go inside the cottage? We can sleep here if you want”
Kiara:“What do you think of this dress?” I asked Nikolay, twirling twice, wearing a long red party dress.The dress was a one sleeved dress which was tight around my waist, loosening around my hips, a slit from my left thigh to the ground exposing my left leg. The ball was tonight and I still didn’t know what to wear, and so far, none of the dresses seemed to be appropriate according to Nikolay, and I had a feeling that it was due to Richard being here.Yeah, I heard of what he had done, trying to take over the businesses here in America, luckily, I managed to quickly step in and buy everything from him before burning it in front of him, yes, I managed to get him money, but his products were burned before they reached any costumers. Meaning that his marketing had failed, Nikolay didn’t appreciate me getting into a battle with the man, nor did he want me spending my money. But bloody hell, I had money coming into my account which I was no
Nikolay:“How do I look?” Kiara asked smiling, she had just finished putting her dress on, her hair curled in neat curls, wearing the new ring I got her in her finger, a necklace around her neck reaching just above the valley of her breast. Two bracelets in her right hand and a watch in her left one.“Beautiful” I said smiling, I put my hands on her hips pulling her closer to me, my smile visible for her eyes to see. She blushed and I kissed her forehead loving her innocence. She truly was a blessing to me, one which I couldn’t think of wanting to lose.“Do you think I need to fix my makeup? Is it too much?” Kiara asked and I chuckled shaking my head, she cared about these small details when in my opinion she didn’t even need makeup, but try convincing any girl with that. It would be impossible “wait, I forgot the Oud, I’ll give you to smell it, let me know if you like it”Kiara rushed to h
Kiara:“Nikolay, we need to get out of this car” I laughed as Nikolay kept his arm wrapped around me, kissing me. His boner would be seen a mile away if he got out of the car. Everyone had gotten out of the car and he locked the car door before I did, driving to a secluded area where he suddenly unbuckled his belt and urged me to get on his lap. I didn’t mind it, but I was a bit worried that someone might end up seeing us, not that Nikolay cared about that. I’m guessing that him doing what he was doing right now was for everyone to see us, to know that I was his and that he was mine.“We can, but we can also go back home and finish what we started” Nikolay said kissing my neck, I had to fight back moaning making Nikolay smirk against my skin. My breathing quickened and Nikolay wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me closer to him, making me feel him against my panties, Nikolay having exposed my lower half as he pulled me to him.
Nikolay: I kept my arm wrapped around Kiara who was looking at her mom with weary eyes. Knowing her, she was worried about her mother despite her pretending that she was standing tall, smiling at the people who would come to greet her, answering their congratulations with a confident smile. “Are you alright baby girl?” I asked Kiara who turned to look at me, smiling and nodding, she took a sip of her glass of wine, Richard’s eyes stayed on us as we talked and I was well aware of his eyes following our every move as we walked. Smirking, I pulled Kiara to me and kissed her forehead making her smile before she laid her head on my chest as I wrapped my arms around her waist. “I’m fine love, I’m just uncomfortable” Kiara sighed and I nodded understanding her. I couldn’t blame her for her worry, I was just as worried about mom, but I knew that my men would give their lives for her. Dimitri would kill anyone who dares approach her, even if we were on safe grounds. A
Kiara: “Kiara, you will go to the car, Anastas will take you home” Nikolay said looking at me, I frowned and shook my head. There was no way I was leaving his side right now, not when I knew that mum, Mia, and Grace were going to be staying here. Not to mention nana and Daphne. He was out of his mind if he thought that I’d be moving an inch away from him, knowing that everything was against us all right now. We have calculated for everything, we were sure to know how to keep everyone safe, how to get out of this without getting harmed. The one thing we never put into account was this. “Don’t you think about it Nikolay, there’s no way I’m leaving your side right now. Claudia is up to something with Richard, it’s obvious in both their eyes. I won’t be able to rest unless I’m by your side right now” I said looking my husband in the eye, Richard had his arm wrapped around Claudia and was now confidently walking around everyone. Dimitri and Mia’s eyes were wide as they lo
Third Person Point Of View:Kiara watched as her husband paced around their bedroom understanding her husband’s worry. Hell, Kiara was worried about Claudia knowing how manipulative Richard would be, she knew that he could have easily manipulated Claudia into thinking that she would be the best of the people in the project. The child probably didn’t even know that the consequence of losing any of the project’s levels would cost her life.“Nikolay…” Kiara said standing up and wrapping her arms around her husband’s neck hugging him tightly, he wrapped his arms around her waist holding his wife to his body. Wanting her to be his peace, he didn’t know what to do right now. All he knew was that he needed her by his side.“She’s getting into a suicide mission Kia, how could she so reckless?” Nikolay asked Kiara not knowing what to do. She kissed his neck wanting to calm him down.“Breathe
Book Two in the Bloodlust series. “Her passing this will be impossible Nikolay” Kiara said looking at her husband, her eyes wide as she looked at his little sister being part of this project. “She has made her choice Kiara, I tried stopping her from getting herself into trouble, time and time, she chose to contact my enemy, she will suffer the consequence” Nikolay said coldly looking down at his sister through the glass podium. It was the first day of the Bloodlust project, the day where everything starts, lives are lost from day one. Those who make it are lucky, Kiara knew that Nikolay was right. Claudia had made her choice, and it was against all odds, and not in her favor. Now all they can do is watch… ************ Coming back with Richard Bernard and his bloodlust project, will Claudia be able to pass his project, will she fail, or would Kiara and Nikolay find a magical way to save the rebellious little teenager against the man who was abo
Kiara: I laid my head on my husband’s chest as he ran his fingers over my waist. The two of us having rented a house on the beach for a few days to be alone. “So, what do you want to do today?” Nikolay asked me. His lips kissing my temple as I smiled and I looked up at him. “Well, for starters, I want us to make up for lost time. Lost love hours and minutes, you know, that kind of thing” I said looking my husband in the eye, he smirked and laid wrapped his arms around me, bringing me closer to his chest. Bringing my lips to his own, kissing me softly. “You know, since we’re finally alone for the next few days. I was thinking that we could give Dani and Lia a little baby brother or sister” Nikolay said making me raise an eyebrow. “Our children are still babies, Nik” I said looking at Nikolay who smiled. “Exactly, they can grow with one another, having a near age range. They’d be our next generation” Nikolay said looking me in the eye “s
Nikolay:“So, do you want to politely tell me what else you did? Or do I need to break the rest of your teeth?” I asked Anastas. My fists covered in blood from punching him as hard as I did. I was currently wearing metal rings that I knew would break his whole jaw if I put the correct force into my punch.Anastas spat on me and I raised an eyebrow before punching his abdomen making him cough out blood. His eyes widened as he tried catching his breath, it having been knocked out of his chest. I was thankful for the walls being soundproof, otherwise, I would’ve have taken this elsewhere.“Again, what else did you do to harm my family?” I asked calmly. My voice was controlled as Vladimir pulled the man’s head back by his hair, forcing him to look at me. Anastas’s eyes were wide in fear as he saw the danger that he was in. But it wasn’t like he didn’t know it, he grew up with me. He knew what annoyed me, what did
Kiara:“Hey” Maddie said peeking her head through the bedroom’s door. Turning my attention to her, I forced myself to smile and nodded at her to come inside.“Hi” I smiled at her, standing up from the floor. I was sitting on the floor with my back resting against the couch. Her eyes met mine and she sighed wrapping her arms around my neck. Hugging me tightly as she did and I embraced her hug. Thankful for her being there for me.“Don’t want to join us for breakfast, Kia? You’ve been dodging your meals unless Nikolay pulls you down with him, and you know that it isn’t good for you” Maddie said softly. She wasn’t blind, no one in this house was. I knew that I wasn’t being fair to myself or this family with what I was doing to myself. But I couldn’t help it.One part of me was still mourning over the loss of mother, the other was breaking inside for not being worth the time of this
Nikolay: “Come on” Kiara said smiling as she put the spoon of soup in my mouth. The fact that the nurse had told her that the less movements I made, the better it would be made her not allow me to move from the bed unless I wanted to go to the bathroom, and even that was with the help of one of the men. Though, I wouldn’t lie and say that I can’t see the sadness in her eyes. Despite the smile that she’s been putting on, I can see the exhaustion in her beautiful green orbs. That fact itself was bothering me, whatever it was, I knew that she was blocking it inside her as not to worry or upset me when I was in such a state. But that didn’t mean that I liked or appreciated it. I put my hand on hers when she was about to lift the spoon from the bowl making her frown in confusion as I studied her expression “what’s going on, baby girl? What are you keeping from me that’s having you this broken?” My questions seemed to catch her off guard as she put th
Kiara:I stared at Nikolay’s lifeless body for a second before turning my attention to my mother whose eyes were wide in both fear and confusion.“What have you done, Kiara?” She asked as she stared at both Grace and Nikolay “what have you two done?”“The task, mother” I said coldly. Her eyes were wide in fear when they met mine and I nodded giving her a cold smile, one which she taught me how to give for a long time. She had told me once that it was the way to survive in the mafia world, a cold smile which didn’t reach your eyes, but gave you a peace of mind.She rushed out of the podium through a door and I nodded at Richard to come with me, the two of us leaving the startled audience as we walked through the door. Ian was hiding somewhere, staying away from the spotlight, though that wouldn’t be for long. Mother would come and look for him, and that might not end too well for her, especially when sh
Kiara:“HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?” Mum yelled at the top of her lungs as she walked inside the dorm where Richard and I were staying. The two of us being the last contestants had the dorm to ourselves.“Hello to you too, mum” I said rolling my eyes. Crossing my arms over my chest, I waited for her to approach me.“You are writing your own death certificate, Kiara! Why the hell are you doing this? What happened to the woman who didn’t cheat on her husband?” Mum snapped. I stayed quiet as I watched her rant “you going ahead and announcing doing this publicly, IN FRONT of Nikolay and the other families, have you really become this reckless?”“So, it’s okay to do it without them knowing? Like cheating but hiding it?” I mocked rolling my eyes at mum whose eyes widened “my marriage is long over, mother. You made sure of it when you kidnapped me, you know, darkening my heart and eyes as
I waited for Kristina to report to me that the bodies of Lara, Emmanuel, Mila, and Joy were sent to their families before reporting back to them that their kids have taken the doses, and that they would be waking up after taking the antidote. My heart dropped to my stomach when I saw that Richard and Kiara were on the same team against four contestants who could rat them out.However, that fear quickly faded away when three of them died, leaving Kiara, Richard, and Yang for the last two levels. Though we didn’t know when they were going to start with them. The fact that they were going to stay in that place for a while longer than necessary worried me, especially since Yang was on edge as she believed that Kiara was with Richard, and that the two were cheating on me. We had two options, to either wait and see what would happen, or I could just give an order to shoot the woman, and we get everything done with.But as tempting the idea was, I knew that I couldn&rsq
Kiara:The games passed by in a flash.Though not as we planned for them to.Ella had died before we even managed to give her the injection. Stefan who refused to take it thinking that we would end up killing him followed a few games later. Lucas having taken it, is now safe with his family. Mikhail followed on the second game. Yang was down to two chances before she lost and was refusing to give up now. The games were literally becoming an addition to some of the contestants who were refusing the fact of losing, some even claimed that I wanted them out for me to win the games. Lara, Mila, Emmanuel, and Joy have been a great help in saving those who would end up losing their lives. Emmanuel literally grabbed one of the contestants and shoved the injection in his neck without his consent when he saw that he was giving me a fuss.Now we were down to ten contestants, and the final level was approaching soon. My heart ached whenever I thought of what was to c
Nikolay:“So, we’ll proceed with the injection?” Kiara asked and Sebastian nodded. Her and Richard were with us in the underground secret tunnel. Well, not so secret but anyway.“You’ll proceed with everything as you planned. However, Ella would be the first to leave, due to being injured. You’d need to have her get out of the games before she actually does die, and there’s the fact that you’ll need to be more careful about who you trust and who you don’t from now on” Sebastian said and Kiara nodded.“What about those who died in the other game? Why didn’t we give them the injection?” Kiara asked and Sebastian sighed running his fingers through his hair.“They had their differences with Nikolay and the Ivanov family. We had caught them wanting to plot against them, but that’s a whole different story. Just be sure that everything goes smoothly and that YOU regain your
