Chapter 84

Ariel

"Nikolai," I muttered audibly and he smirked at me.

"Good to see you, Ariel. Never knew that I would see you in person so soon," His smirk twisted into a vicious smile that had me questioning my silly reasons for coming here.

He breezed past us and crashed onto the chair in a very lackadaisical manner. How could someone be this dangerous and aloof at the same time?

Now I saw why Dmitri didn't want to speak with him. He looked so nonchalant and self-absorbing, but I had a knack for not giving up until I'd exhausted all options, and I wouldn't leave this place until I'd poured out my heart.

He swiveled his gaze toward Vladimir and then at me. "Why are you both standing like ushers? Don't you want to have a seat? Aren't we all family?"

"Yeah, right!" I retorted sarcastically. "Family don't betray each other," I muttered under my breath, but obviously he heard it because the smile on his face vanished.

"How so?"

"Family respects each other's decisions and also have thei

    Chapter 85ArielI collapsed on one of the couches as soon as my feet touched the living room. My eyes were swooning and through my blurred vision, I could see the white furry objects passing through the clouds.A drunk chuckle burst out of my lips. "Oh, Dmitri... You're such a party pooper. I didn't even get to tell the stranger goodbye," I giggled.He shook his head in disappointment, his arms propped against his waist. "We aren't going to have this conversation right now. I'm going to take you to bed and once the alcohol wears off, we'll talk," He said with a tone of finality and scooped me into his arms effortlessly as if I was a piece of paper and made for our room.Gently and carefully, he placed me on the bed, sheathing my fatigued body with the duvet. How I'd missed sleeping here last night.He spun around to leave and I latched onto his wrist, prohibiting him from taking any further steps."Don't go..." My voice sounded like a pur as mother nature beckoned onto me."I won't

    Chapter 86DmitriI was frustrated and couldn't find any better way to vent my anger other than shedding a generous amount of blood. There were only two people I had in mind—Enzo and my brother if he didn't stop meddling in my affairs.With my legs crossed on my desk and a cancer stick fixed between my lips, I fiddled with the butt of my gun, contemplating on sending Fedor to the great beyond or giving him one more task.Vladimir waltzed into my office and settled on one of the couches, his gaze flitting from me to Fedor whose hands were tied behind him."Are you in love with Ariel?" I blurted, my gaze roving over him meticulously.He flinched slightly and lifted his face, peering at me steadily. "She's your woman, Capo. There's no way I'd risk my life by falling for her,"He shouldn't even dare fall for her because I'd busy myself with decapitating him and separating his flesh from his bones.Ariel was one woman I couldn't joke with. I hated that I had to put her in such a difficult

    Chapter 87DmitriI glanced at my bleeding arm and clenched my fist hesitantly. "Reynolds?" I grunted, fixing him a steely gaze. He batted his lashes, slightly nervous and I smirked, quite satisfied that I had an effect on him even though he had several weak guards protecting him. If I wanted to take them down, it wouldn't take me up to five minutes, but they weren't my target for now, besides, I understood how he felt. Liora was my life and I'd murder anyone whom I presumed to be her killer. Maybe the reason he hadn't killed me yet was fear and the fact that I wouldn't let him. He scoffed, a deep scowl etched on his features. "What did you do with my daughter?" He thundered, his nose widely flared. I scoffed. "You'll have to stop screaming like an injured animal if you want answers from me because I have no hand in your daughter's death,"He pointed his gun again at me and I shrugged, returning my seat. Vladimir was still pointing his gun at my shooter while Nikolai sat nonchala

    Chapter 88ArielIt's been exactly three weeks and four days since Dmitri confessed his feelings for me in an unusual manner. I'd been giddy with excitement through out that evening, but his next line of action reminded me that it was easier to say a thing than do it.Seated on the bed while wallowing in despondence and depression, I wondered what I was going to do with my boring life. If I wasn't married to him, I'd have graduated from culinary school, but he wouldn't even let me do anything for myself.He was too paranoid about my safety and he felt I was well catered for. What he was ignorant of was that I liked to look out for myself as well.Being in this house all day as a routine drove me nuts and I was sick of it.A faint knock rapped on the door and without having to guess, I already knew who it was."Come in, Liora," I tried to sound cheerful and luckily, my voice didn't betray me.She pushed the door open and bounced in like a well-fed cat. "No one wants to play with me an

He dug his teeth into his lower lip and let out a pain-filled growl as I continued to brush the lit-up part of the cigar against his injury."So tell me, you piss of shit, how much did Ivanov offer you to betray me and exchange our stash with a fake one?" I asked calmly, sitting very close to him while he knelt with his hands tied behind him.Armen and Vladimir stood behind me while I delivered a sinister torture session to one of my Italian employees.The bastard and his family have been under my payroll and I took care of every one of his fucking bills. Now the only thing he could reward me with was betrayal.Blood trickled from another cut on his forehead to his eyelids and he shut his ey

    Chapter 90ArielThe rays from the bright incandescent bulbs fixed on both sides of the room jolted me from my sleep. At least, I wasn't feeling exhausted anymore and my vision wasn't blurry.Forgetting that a cannula was fixed to the vein on the back of my palm, I sat up abruptly and passed a paranoid glance around and realized I wasn't in my room. This wasn't even the queen-sized, plush bed I enjoyed sleeping on every night.It wasn't that the bed wasn't comfortable. I mean it was bigger than the size of most beds in each ward, and maybe a little birdie might have told the nurses whose wife I was, but I wasn't just comfortable being here.Then my mind flashed back to the reason I was here and Liora who was earlier staring at the window, spared me a glance and came to me with a huge smile plastered on her face."Mommy, you're awake. I'll go call, Dad,"I grabbed her arm in shock before she could take another move. "Your father is here?"She nodded with a sweet smile. "I called him on

    Chapter 91DmitriIt was one week already and I was yet to believe that Ariel was in love with me, just as I was with her. My lips stretched wide with a grin spreading over my face; a light chuckle cracked from my throat. Fortunately for Vladimir and me, I wasn't in the driver's seat or our lives would have been under threat without how I was chuckling nonstop. Vladimir spared me a glance, his brows arched. "What's wrong with you man?""I'm in love again, brother. Never knew it would happen this soon," I declared, pressing my knuckles. I was sure that if we weren't on a mission, he'd have parked the car to the side and drilled me of all the details. "Fuck that shit, Dmitri! What did she do to make you this excited about love again? I thought you just wanted a physical relationship with her,""It's hard to not fall in love with a woman who's everything to you. She's carrying my child,"This time he couldn't help but step on the break and floor the gas. "How did that happen so fast?

    Chapter 92Dmitri "Shoot them," Enzo's gruff voice resonated in the darkness and I lurched forward, falling flat on my stomach as more shots were fired above me. Nikolai single-handedly cleared all the guards that came with Enzo and then the light flickered on. Dead bodies were littered around the room, some of them stacked upon each other like a pack of cards. A deep pain-filled groan caught my attention and I found Enzo, holding onto one of his thighs, the same one I'd planned to explore my artistic carving skills on. A black vest was flung at me and I put it on quickly. As I crossed over to him in slow and calculated strides, he cowered, his body trembling visibly while blood seeped out from the bullet wound on his thigh. "How the mighty has crumbled," I mocked him, reveling in his fear. He flitted his gaze around and the light dimmed in his eyes when he realized that no one was coming to rescue him, just the same way he'd made me feel some moments ago. "Please," His lips qu

    Chapter 98ArielTWO MONTHS LATERI stood before Dmitri with the priest holding a book in his hands. A petal dropped from the canopy of flowers that was used as a roof to shield us from the harsh rays of the sun.And Dmitri beamed at me with the brightest smile I'd ever seen as we renewed our vows to each other in the presence of my parents, Vladimir, Liora and a few important Bratvan members.He reached for my hands and squeezed them tenderly, peering into my eyes. "A year ago, I was bittered by the fact I'd be getting married to a woman whom I barely knew anything about. We met for the first time unconventionally and your sassiness strengthened my dislike toward the idea of marrying you. I continued to console myself with the fact that the alliance would help solidify the gang and our trade, but what I never knew was that the marriage was arranged to make me a better version of myself,"His voice cracked as he paused and I began to wonder when he became this emotional.I leaned clos

    Chapter 97DmitriAriel should have been here with me to say goodbye to the last phase of our trauma, but her body suddenly started acting up this morning, and after what happened three days ago, I admitted her for a general body check."Wait, Dmitri," Anya's raspy voice stopped me from taking any further step out of the ward.She'd be locked in here until the psychiatrist decided that her mental health was back to normal. At least, it was better than living in guilt for the rest of my life.I spared her a backward glance, my eyes roving through her pale face. How did I go from being madly in love with this woman to feeling nothing for her?"What do you want from me?"Her hands had to be chained to the metal rail of the bed after she made two attempts to escape from her ward this morning. I couldn't have her doing more damage to my family so the doctor and I decided on forcefully restricting her to a place."I'm sorry," She sighed, running her tongue over her lips. "Can I have thirty

    Chapter 96Ariel Anya smirked. "Who else do you think it was?"Dmitri's eyes shimmered with tears. "I loved you so much, Anya. Why didn't you just tell me who you were?"She sunk her ass on the edge of the chair and shrugged. "I was scared that you'd break up with me if you found out so I faked my death. The plan was to watch you from afar and make sure you were alright. I didn't want a woman whom I couldn't control to be around you so I sent Margaret to watch over you, fortunately, she was indebted to me,""Don't you think you need to visit the hospital? Who sends a woman to fuck their man?""I do," She flashed her teeth vilely. "The plan was going smoothly until you decided to get married to this bitch and fall for her. I couldn't bear it anymore and then I thought to come back and get my man. It's that simple,"Dmitri paced around the room in frustrated struts, while drawing in shallow breaths to control his anger. "I have a question for you, Anya, and I want you to answer me trut

    Chapter 95ArielIt was another chill morning for me to experience different kinds of emotions while everyone went about their day peacefully. The worst part was that I couldn't follow Dmitri around as I wanted.His work was just too violent and unsafe and we couldn't tell the next enemy who'd waylay us and use me as bait.The drama playing on the television was too chaotic for me to follow so I turned it off flippantly in a bid to head out. Maybe take a stroll or stop by Cake Treats.The doorbell rang twice and I abandoned my initial plans, hurrying off to get to the door. I placed my eye on the peephole and my heart skipped a beat.Overcome with trepidation, I dashed back to the sofa to get my phone to inform Dmitri about Chiara's visit, unfortunately he wasn't reachable.Back in Chicago, we had a safe house where we'd hide if anyone was in danger, but I couldn't make assumptions and raise an alarm when I wasn't sure of her identity.At least she was here, and I'd get the opportunit

    Chapter 94DmitriMy knuckles met on the wooden frame of the door and then I halted for a while, impatiently waiting for the permission to come in. Nikolai and I had never related to each other as brothers so I didn't have access to his house.We fought a lot when we were younger and while I thought that we'd grow out of the resentment we bore for each other, it tripled when I found him banging a girl I liked in high school.I was met with silence so I knocked again and my instincts urged me to open the door. The door gave way and I strolled in, quietly taking in the features of his mansion.I didn't even know he had a mansion here in Seattle.Giggles and murmurs resonated from the staircase to the living room where I was. Then he appeared behind her, spanking her ass while she blew a kiss at him.She froze when she noticed my presence, her eyes bulging in surprise. Nikolai trained a smirk at me, clad in a long black robe that he didn't bother to tie up.His face was quite red, his li

How could I have forgotten that Dmitri would be returning home soon? Not wanting him to find me in this embarrassing position, I dragged my panties up to my butt and kept the dildo back in the drawer, leaving the frame on the desk.In hasty and sad strides, I pushed the door open and he waltzed in, his dark orbs scrutinizing my face meticulously. My emotions chose to betray me at that moment as tears welled up in my orbs again."What's wrong, Ariel?" His voice was so soft and soothing."I don't know. I missed you so much," The part where I missed him was partially the truth, but I couldn't tell him that I was grieved about his past.He cupped my cheeks, his thumb wiping off the tear that hung around my eyelid. "I missed you too," He replied
