Chapter 45

Dmitri

"You can still change your mind now that there's still time. Marriage isn't a joke, Vlad," My heart constricted at the thought of the loveless marriage he was about to put himself into.

I didn't have a problem doing it because I'd fallen in love before, but the responsibility of keeping the Bratva afloat depended on me, not him.

He folded his arms and shook his head. "There's no need to beat around the bush, brother. This is what I want to do for us. Lately, I've been feeling somewhat inefficient as consigliere, chasing women around and living life to the fullest while abandoning my duties and making things hard for you, so allow me to do this,"

"No, no, don't look down on yourself. You've been a great source of help to me and I don't know what I'd have done if you weren't by my side when Anya died, but take a look at me, I'm doing better now. And if you're helping me out just because I'm yet to get a good supplier then I'm telling you right now as your Capo that you

    Chapter 46DmitriAnger boiled within me as my fingers tapped the edge of my desk rhythmically; The feeling of rage doubled when the bastard barged into my office with his usual surly smirk that I badly wanted to punch off his face.Twenty minutes was all I needed, and he'd be together with his ancestors."Hey, pup," He always called me that name when he wanted to annoy me.I wondered if he knew that he had done more than too just grate on my nerves. He'd overstepped his boundaries and death seemed too painless a punishment for him."Good morning, Uncle" I replied with my usual nonchalant tone, though there was nothing indifferent about how I felt. "You're learning punctuality these days, huh? I thought I'd have to call you over and over again,""As long as it's business, I'll be here. Maybe something good can come out of your being Capo," He taunted, his callous grin broadening.Slowly, I eased off my seat, undoing the first button of my shirt that made my neck feel like it was in a

    Chapter 47ArielMy heart ached and the world seemed to slow down around us as I helped Guilia pack her bags.The memory of how excited I was when she arrived here in Seattle and how we promised to have so much fun was still fresh in my mind so it was sad that she had to leave hurriedly like this.I was more bittered by the fact that this was my doing, but if it involved helping her, I'd do it over and over again."I'm sorry, Guilia," Another apology swept through my lips for the umpteenth time.She nodded slowly and shrugged. "I won't admit that I don't feel disappointed by what you did but I'm still grateful that you're doing what I can't do for myself. It's apparent that Vladimir will continue to hurt me if I don't stay away, but I can't help it," She confessed; her shoulders drooped in resignation. "Will you see him tonight before you leave?" I asked gently. She bit her lower lip and rested her head against the window pane, her gaze trained on the bright clouds that hovered over

    Chapter 48ArielMy body became giddy with excitement as he approached me with a particular toy that resembled a man's genital."Umm, Dmitri," I called with uncertainty. "What's this?"He licked his lips and climbed onto the bed. "This is called a dildo and we're going to use it on you. I promise you'll like every moment it's inside of you," His voice had become insanely deep and gruff, further heightening my horniness. "Then put it in right away," I urged him impatiently.My panties were already drenched with my wetness and the thought of what we were about to do brought me close to an orgasm.He chuckled lightly and knelt before me, while I leaned against the headboard. "Be patient, little kitten. We have to get you ready first,""How?" I pouted, my pussy twitching.His fingers trailed along my thighs which were covered by the skirt of my dress and then he reached my panties and groaned."You're soaking wet," He croaked.I nodded and batted my lashes. "Truthfully, I get deeply arou

    Chapter 49ArielWe exchanged surprised glances and immediately I began to search for a dress I could wear while Dmitri buttoned his pants and quickly put on a vest. "Liora? Is it really you?"The surprise on my face wore off and my eyes became misty. If she was really the one, I didn't know what I'd do with myself. Since I couldn't wait to find out, I dashed to the door with Dmitri trailing behind me. My fingers trembled as soon as it touched the doorknob and Dmitri noticing my fear, placed his hand on mine and twisted the knob, opening the door. Liora peered up at us with uncertainty blaring on her face. "Mummy," She called this time and my heart swelled to the point of exploding. I scooted, unsure of what I heard. When did this miracle happen? "Liora, are you alright? You're calling me mummy," I croaked, my emotions choking my throat. It took a lot for an emotional person like me not to burst into tears. She nodded slowly and cupped my face. "I did because you're my mummy,"

When Dmitri and I were done discussing in the garden, we returned to the living room to find Fedor, Irina and the cook, Alina, glued to her stories.She was the true definition of a chatterbox and I wondered how long she'd been wanting to break free from her shell and share her ideas to everyone. It was that way till today, but now she'd gotten upset that I wouldn't be with her."Don't go anywhere, mummy," She pressed.My eyes darted to Dmitri who also dressed to go out with me for help, but he looked away, silently informing me that I was alone in this.Guilia was still stuck in her room and since I was to travel in two days, Dmitri found no need for her to travel back to Chicago alone."It won't take time, Liora, I promise. I just have to go out. Help me out here, Dmitri," I thundered.He shrugged and approached Liora whom he hoisted onto his arms. "What's the problem,

    Chapter 51DmitriI helped Ariel put our luggage into the SUV and my phone vibrated with a beep in the pocket of my black cargo pants. Without checking, I knew who it was.Margaret and I had talked at length last night. After ignoring her for a few weeks, she thought that the main reason I gave her my attention was because I missed her.If only she knew that I'd be escorting her on the pathway to hell, she'd be hot on her heels right now.Ariel had been quiet ever since I informed her that we wouldn't be traveling together as I had some issue to take care of, but presently, her well-being was my concern.I caressed her cheek with my thumb and she folded her hands, pouting her lips. "Are you still mad at me?""The thing is, I know why you don't want to join us and it makes me so uncomfortable. You have people that can do the job for you, why don't you let them?" She queried.She wasn't going to understand so I placed my hands on her shoulders. "I promise to take the next available flig

    Chapter 52ArielThe flight back to Chicago was rather shorter than I expected. My heart thumped fast against my chest with anxiety rising within me slowly.I hadn't seen my parents since I left with Dmitri to Texas and then to Seattle. My mom and I texted each other once in a while but it wasn't so with my dad, and my heart sank each time she told me that he never asked after me.Today, I'd be seeing his face again and I wasn't sure I was ready to ask him why he treated me like an outcast all these time.Liora stirred on my thighs and continued sleeping, snoring lightly. Fortunately, she understood my explanation about her dad and right now, she looked so peaceful that I didn't want her to wake up. Having nothing else to do, I glanced at my side and my gaze landed on Guilia who smiled tiredly."We'll be home soon," She noted rather absentmindedly. I nodded and inhaled deeply. "But why doesn't it feel like home?"She huffed her shoulders and folded her arms, her attention trained on

    Chapter 53ArielClimbing down the stairs for dinner felt like going down the Kilmanjaro mountain after being alone in the cold for days. Even being alone at the top of a mountain was better than being in this loveless house.I got to dining clad in a simple sleeveless black flare dress and met Mama who was busy giving orders to the maids who helped with serving the dishes.Irina and Liora walked in just after I'd settled down and I reached for a plate and scooped a piece of baked salmon on it. "Don't eat yet. We have to wait for your father to be here," Mama chided me lightly.The urge to ignore her and keep eating welled up within me, but for the sake of Liora whom I didn't want to witness a family dispute, I obeyed and folded my arms, stomping my foot restlessly on the floor.The air around me was hot and still even though the air conditioner was on. No one spoke, not even my mother who was usually chatty.Maybe she'd noticed how bitter I was and decided not to add to my resentmen

    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

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

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

    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

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?

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
