Chapter 70DmitriI sat quietly, my head bowed in anticipation of Ariel's present status from the surgeon. Amidst that, I thought of everything that I could have done properly if I wasn't blinded by rage and jealousy.However, my pensive mood was intruded upon by the click of heels that made its way toward me. I raised my head and my heart further plummeted as I stood up to meet them.The fact that Ariel's parents were here for a not-so-good reason made me bitter. The last time we met it was for celebration, and I'd hoped that it would continue to be that way."Good evening, Mr and Mrs Scuderi," I stretched my hand forward for a handshake.He regarded my hand hesitantly and I expected him to ignore it, but then he shook it firmly while his wife approached me and embraced me warmly.My eyes became misty when her arms around me gripped me hard and then I broke down. All these while, I'd put up a tough front and acted as if I was impregnable, but what had it done for me?My whole world w

Chapter 71ArielMama's eyes bored into mine as I licked my lips and gulped. My throat was parched and I scrunched my face at the soreness I felt after swallowing while wondering when the doctor would show me mercy and allow me to take a cup of water."Are you alright, my child?" Her voice was soft and melodic, soothing all the build-up of heartache and trauma I experienced in the past two days.I shook my head and gulped again in preparation for my response."Please, don't talk if you aren't up to it," She suggested and gently lowered herself to the space on the bed.Feeling too helpless on my back, I hoisted myself up and Mama drew nearer to help me sit up properly. "Of course, I have to talk. There are several things I have to say, but where is Dad?" I spoke slowly.She regarded the door for a moment and sighed. "He's with the doctor and I guess he went to look for Dmitri as well. We have all been searching for you,"I snorted in irritation. "Why is he looking for me?" I muttered

Chapter 72Dmitri I stood in front of my penthouse, staring absentmindedly at the colorful pattern of the neatly arranged flowers that beautified the facade. My mind strayed into a deep array of thoughts as I traipsed into the house with a heavy heart. Liora dashed toward me immediately I appeared in the doorway as if she had been expecting my return. "Daddy," She screamed in excitement while I swept her off her feet and held her tightly. I'd been so engrossed with finding Ariel that I relegated my daughter to the background. It wouldn't happen again though. Once Ariel returned, I'd ensure that they would never have the chance to miss me. "Hey, baby," I pressed my lips against her cheeks and proceeded to pepper her whole face with kisses. She slid down my body and dragged me to the sofa. "Sit down, Dad. We have a lot of things to talk about but first, where's Mommy?"A knot tightened in my stomach and I looked away, unable to meet her prodding eyes. She tugged at my arm consist

Chapter 73ArielGuilt gnawed in my chest at my selfish act but the peace of mind that filled my heart since I absconded from the hospital overshadowed it.Once again Guilia came to my rescue. I wouldn't have been able to succeed without her help. Before the time Dmitri came into my ward, I'd considered coming to Chicago with my parents, but after he came, I realized that my plans to leave might not be successful if I included my parents.So I did what I was good at doing which was running away and I'd never felt more at peace.The only person I missed was Liora. We had already bonded strongly and I hoped to see her once again, but right now, I had to focus on healing both physically and mentally.Guilia and I were in a cabin that overlooked a sparkling blue lake in a remote area that belonged to Raphael. She'd chosen this place since it was quite remote and no one would suspect me to be there.She stoked the fire and brought down the window blinds while I sipped my coffee."Are you s

Chapter 74DmitriHer head swiveled towards Guilia's direction, her eyes squinted with anger lurking behind them. "What have you done, Guilia?" She rasped, her feet slowly moving toward her in sure, terrifying steps. Guilia ducked her head and fiddled with her fingers nervously then lifted her head, glancing at me for help. When she saw that none was coming forth from me, she clasped her palms pleadingly. "Dmitri couldn't stop calling me and I saw how badly you missed him. You couldn't stop muttering his name even while asleep and that was what motivated me to call him over here," She explained. Ariel's lips moved but no words came out, instead, she clenched her fists and clicked her tongue loudly, her cheeks reddening in embarrassment. I inclined my head and pressed my lips together to keep myself from smiling though it was hard. Knowing that I was still at heart made me feel very good and the sleepless nights and endless worries that I faced were worth it. "But that isn't a st

Chapter 75ArielMy knees nearly crumpled; my heart thudded hard like the drums of the boy's brigade going on a march past. Slowly, my fingers trailed to my chest and I clutched onto it, hoping it would soothe the uneasiness Dmitri had created.Even the deep, continuous breaths I took only escalated the queasiness that traveled throughout my body.Damn you, Guilia, for being a traitor. Damn you, Dmitri, for being so stubborn.And damn my body for betraying me like this.Without thinking, my legs charged forward until I was out of the cabin and almost bumped into Dmitri who was advancing toward the lake."Where are you going to?" I panted and drew in quick shallow breaths.He spun around, his brows arched in surprise. "Nowhere in particular. I wanted to make us breakfast,"A knot unfurled in my stomach and I held back a sigh of relief. I didn't want him to think that he was doing me a favor."Umm, breakfast? I thought Guilia had enough supplies to last us this week?" I pointed to the

Chapter 76ArielWe stared at each other longingly, none of us making a move even though we desired one thing—to be together. "Are you no longer interested?" I asked shyly and shifted my weight to the other foot."There has never been a time that I haven't been interested in you. I've always been drawn to you from the first time you bumped into me in front of your father's study and splashed that hot coffee on my suit," A smile crept to my face and my cheeks heated up with a blush. "I thought you couldn't stand me,""True, I couldn't stand you because you acted spoilt, but your feistiness also turned me on. And when we began to live together properly, I realized that you were more than the spoilt and superficial girl I thought you were...""I'm not superficial," I clicked my tongue and looked away. A soft chuckle emanated from his lips and he raised his hands in surrender. "I'm sorry about that. But I discovered that you had more layers that were veiled by the brattish exterior tha

Chapter 77ArielUnlike Dmitri who advanced toward the Father's mansion with so much poise, I rather dragged my feet across the interlogged ground; my heart pounding with apprehension.Instinctively, he reached for my hand and entwined our fingers, then bent slightly so his mouth was at the same level as my ear. "Are you anxious?"I nodded vigorously as my lips took a momentary vacation at that point. Fortunately, he understood my predicament and gently pulled me closer to himself. "Don't worry. Your parents won't do anything to you. They are just concerned about your health, that's all," He assured me confidently. My fingers trembled even though he was holding them firmly. "But I made them scared. I didn't even pick up their calls," I managed to say. "It's fine, sweetheart. Everything will be alright, just take a deep breath," He advised. I did as he said and began to count slowly from one to ten. Gradually, the yoke of unease slipped away and I gathered some level of confidence

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

Chapter 93ArielAnger and jealous tears streaked down my cheeks as I palmed my face; my raging hormones spurring the roller-coaster of emotions that rode through me.I quickly wiped the tears off my face when the door made a creaking sound.Shit! 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

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 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
