Chapter 16My engagement party starts soon. Sierra and Aurora are flying home today, and they both assured me that they were alone. The last thing I need is to piss off Dwayne, or even more so Nikolai, who now controls my every move, my every breath, my life.Until he gets what Avery promised him, I'm afraid I have no way to escape him. Nikolai wants Aurora, and he'll stop at nothing to get her.I would never let her go with him. I know what he's capable of, and I don't want her living a life of despair and the fear of the unknown. “Darling?,” my mother says as she opens the door to my room and walks in.“I came to see if you needed some help since the girls were going to be there awhile,” She smiles at me, and her eyes gloss over, and she shakes her head.“I can't believe my only baby is getting married! I know you're old enough, but to me, you're still my little girl with the short blonde curls that would bounce as you ran through the house,” “I'll always be your little girl, mom,
Chapter 17 “This is my Fiancée, Whitney Martago,”Nikolai introduced me and I smiled and shook the two short Men's hands.“Nice to meet you both,”They eyed me and looked over at Nikolai. “это не тот рыжий, о котором ты нам говорил.”[ this isn't the redhead you told us about]“Я достану ее, не волнуйся,” [I'll get her don't worry] Nikolai tells them in Russia. “So, Whitney. Will you be coming to our country as Mrs Volkov?” The brown-haired guy asked. He's a smidgen taller then the other guy and he has a nose that sits cock-eyed on his face.“That will be up to Nikolai. I'd marry him now if he was willing,” I smiled over at him and Stared at him like I was in love With him and couldn't live Without him. I even brushed his cheek with the tip of my fingers.Take that Nikolai I am a very good actor I could probably be on the big screen. A+ for me.“She sure is eager. Better watch this Nikolai,” the other man said and chuckled.“Indeed,” Nikolai mutters wrapping his arm around my wais
Chapter 18 Aurora stiffens in our embrace. We let go of each other and Aurora faces Nikolai. “I have somebody I want you to meet,” Nikolai tells her and extends his hand for her. She glanced over at me for some reason like she wanted my permission. I just looked down at my feet. I mean she wants to go with him. I can't stop her. He doesn't want me anyways. Aurora places her hand in his and Nikolai looks over at me. “Remember what we talked about,” I nod. “He's waiting for you outside the ballroom. Excuse yourself in ten minutes go to the restroom,” with that he smiles at Aurora and walks her across the room. “What was that about?” Sierra asks. I shrug my shoulders and beat the hell out of me. Nikolai has worse mood swings than a woman on her period. “I'm going to find my man,” Sierra tells Me in she heads to look for him. I watch Nikolai as he leads Aurora to the same men that he took me to. I'm still unsure what they're interests are with me and what Nikolai was sayin
Chapter 19 Dwayne ordered me to my room so he could discuss something with those Russian men. But I don't go to my room, instead I head to the ballroom in search of Nikolai. The ball is full of so many people and I only have a short time to find him before Dwayne Realizes I'm not where he told me to be.I'm not packing anything. Dwayne is out of mind and crazy if he thinks I'm going with those men. I have this horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach bile rising in my throat. I'm trying everything I can to keep it down.“Sierra, have you seen Nikolai?”She shakes her head.“Don't you know what's happened?” She asks.“Yeah, Dwayne has lost mind and is selling me to two Russian men because Nikolai ended the engagement and he caught me kissing Avery so to get rid of me and to keep me from Avery he's selling me off I'm his daughter. How can he do this?”Sierra’s mouth drops.“That's not what she was talking about,” Daniel says.“Does Avery know about this?” Sierra asked.“No Dwayne dr
Chapter 20"I can't believe you're not upset that Avery shot your father.” Why would I be? The man was crazy; he was selling me off to men that were going to do god only knows what with me.Avery and Daniel were In a heated discussion.“Why would I be?”She looks taken aback by my answer and she raised her eyebrows.“When Avery shot Enzo you were crying on my shoulder for days but he shoots your father and Your not even the slightest upset?”I see Avery glaring at me through the corner of my eyes but I keep my gaze focused on Sierra.“Because I don't feel anything for him, why don't you get that?”“Yes you do just like you cared for Enzo,”Averys jaw ticks at the sound of his name…..that's twice she's brought him up.I love the fact the dress I wore tonight was one that went just above the knee but it still had long sleeves to cover up what Dwayne did. I've never seen Sierra Or Aurora before, no one's seen it until Avery.“Because Enzo was nice to me, giving me attention made me feel
Chapter 21 AVERY.Ruining my sister's wedding was never part of my plan but I had no choice; I had to get Whitney Out of there at any cost. I don't think she minds though she chose a small chapel in downtown Las Vegas. I rented her a dress and she looks so beautiful standing next me as we're preparing to walk down the aisle. Daniel is waiting for her at the end of the altar with Whitney waiting for her best friend to make this big leap of commitment. She's wearing her red dress that she wore at her own engagement party which pissed me off because she smells of Nikolai and I bite down clenching My jaw. I was pissed when she refused to get another dress because they would show off her scars.Daniel reached out his hand for Sierra which she took all too quickly . I was so far in my own head I hadn’t realized we were already at the end. “Be good to my sister,”He nodded his head and a smile spread his lips as he took in Sierra’s beauty.I was too busy staring at Whitney to hear anythi
Chapter 22Avery takes off the red dress and it hits the floor. My cheeks heat when he runs his fingers over my scars on my back. His heated gaze never leaves mine. He unclasped the bra and teasingly pulled it from my body. Avery takes off my lace panties and his lips place soft gentle kisses up my thighs I froze when he Darted his tongue out and swipe it over my clit a needy moan ripples past my lips Avery drags his hands up my body as he stands hovering over me before his lips found mine again.I can taste myself as his tongue battles mine for dominance.Avery pulls away his gaze hazy with just and desire. I couldn't help but chew my lip.“Shower, “ He tells me before he leaves, shutting the door behind him.He just left me hot and bothered.While I was showering at some point Avery put my clothing in the bathroom to which I am grateful because after what happened between us I'm kind of embarrassed to face him knowing what almost happened.Luckily I never travel with a brush in my
Chapter 23 I stood in front of isla palace. I didn't want to be here and as much as I hate the way my life was I'd be lying if I said I hated the island because that would be a lie I do love it here.“Ms Martago, we've been looking everywhere for you,” Sedrick says, when opens the door. I give him a small smile.“I'm sorry if I worried anyone. I just didn't want to leave with those men,”“You've missed so much. Your father I'm sure as you know healed perfectly fine although once your mother tore into him I bet he wished he had died,” Sedrick chuckles.“What happened?”Sedrick narrows his eyes, “Your mother found out about everything. Told your father if he didn't make things right she was leaving him and taking everything he's got with her,”I mouthed an ‘0’This was what I was trying to avoid telling mama about my father and the way he's been handling his business along with treating me like shit I knew she wouldn't like it and I didn't want my family to separate. I just wanted my
Chapter 26 Avery Invited Sabrina himself to dinner and said it's best he keeps his eye on the enemy closely. I think he's being ridiculous but whatever floats his boat at this point. I pick at my food while everyone else is having a good time. I can't focus on having a good time, not when I walked out of the shower and caught Avery snorting again. The thought of it all turns my stomach. I'm not going to be enough to get him clean and when he uses his mind thinks crazy and he does things the Avery I know would never do.He pinned me to the bed earlier and kissed me and Started touching me in places that had never been touched before and I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it because I did. He made my body feel things tonight that it has never felt before. And just when I thought he was done when the wetness between my legs gushed like a waterfall and I Screamed his name Over and over again when the orgam ripped through me Avery took off his pants.My cheeks heat at the memory of l
Chapter 25Even though Avery was against Sabrina coming with us she still came because I invited her and I wasn't going back on my word, she's harmless the sooner Avery realizes it the better this trip will be. I finally have someone to hang out with and I wont feel like the third wheel since Avery refuses to do anything fun.I'm beginning to wonder if Avery has a fun bone in his body.“So you live in Chicago?” Daniel asked Sabrina, she nodded and chewed her steak.“Yes. Born and raised, this is actually my first time leaving home,”“I got a Job in Chicago, me and Sierra are moving there next month. I'm going to be a partner at Dillion and Quinton law firm,”“Are you kidding?” Sabrina asked.Daniel shakes his head.“Nope,” Sabrina smiles, shaking her head.“This is such a small world. My brother Phil Quinton,”Daniel raises his brow, “Really? He's the one that offered me the partnership after I won the Pérez murder trial,”“That was you? That's all over the news even in Chicago,
Chapter 24Avery woke me up at 5:00Am this morning so that we could leave to meet Sierra and Daniel in Hawaii.This time I said goodbye to my parents before I left of course Dwayne warned me to be careful that Avery can't be trusted. The problem with Avery is constant drug use; it's like he can't breathe without snorting up.Part of me wants to save him while the other part of me wants to run and never look back.But I know he needs me so running isn't an option. “Avery?”His Carmel eyes met my gaze and I swallowed the lump in my throat.“Why did you come back to Isla Martago for me?”“I warned you about getting mixed up with me Whitney, once everyone knows who you belong to they will stop at nothing to get you,”He tilts his head, “Having second thoughts about me now?”“No, just curious as to who would want me?”“The mafia world is dangerous anyone that wants me will take you to get me,”“But why do they want you?”“Revenge,”“Why not just get out? Avery, you don't need this in you
