BLOODSTAINED HEARTS CHAPTER SIXTY-SIX
ZOEYThe next morning brought a sense of calm after the stormy night. As I woke up in Alexei's room, the realization hit me – I had spent the night beside him. It wasn't something I planned, but circumstances had a way of leading us down unexpected paths.Alexei was still sound asleep, his troubles momentarily forgotten in the embrace of sleep. I quietly slipped out of the room, leaving him to rest, and headed to the kitchen to brew some much-needed coffee. The aroma filled the air, offering a comforting embrace amidst the uncertainties that lingered.Yaz was already in the kitchen, and the look on his face told me he had questions. "Zoey, care to explain why you spent the night in Alexei's room?" he inquired with a raised eyebrow.I sighed, realizing how it might look. "It's not what you think. Alexei had a rough night, and he fell asleep in his office. I didn't want to disturb you, so I helped him to his room."Yaz smirked, "Sure, sure. Just keeping each other company during the nig

ALEXEII couldn't help but smile as I glanced at Zoey beside me, practically bouncing with joy in her seat. We were on the road, and I was driving. The truth was, I hadn't felt this happy in a long time.For too long, I had hidden my feelings for Zoey, but now, there was no point in hiding it any longer. She had this magical way of bringing genuine smiles back to my face – something I had forgotten how to do. I was grateful to have her back in my life, and I couldn't imagine what I would have done if I had been a little too late.My eyes wandered to our joined hands. One hand was on the steering wheel, and the other was clasped with Zoey's. She looked so excited, and I was glad that I could be the reason for that smile on her face."Are you that excited?" I asked her, my own smile reflecting my genuine happiness.She tilted her head and gave me a look, as if my question was a bit silly. "Are you kidding me? This is like the f

ZOEYI couldn't believe how much fun I was having. It felt like forever since I enjoyed myself like this. And to think, I never knew Alexei had this side to him.Seeing him smile was a rare treat, and I soaked it all in, knowing it might be short-lived. Once we're back home, he'd probably go back to being the intimidating Don.I turned to glance at him as he drove, and he looked adorable. Honestly, Alexei was easily the most handsome man I had ever come across.Alexei's profile was like something out of a dream. His jawline was strong and defined, giving off a rugged charm that made my heart flutter.The way his dark hair framed his face added to his allure, and those piercing eyes of his held a mysterious intensity that could make anyone weak in the knees.There was an undeniable grace in the way he carried himself, a mix of strength and elegance that made him stand out.In simple terms, he was the

ZOEYHand in hand, we made our way back to the path that led us to the waterfall. The serene atmosphere of that magical place was etched into my memory, and I knew it was something I wouldn't be forgetting anytime soon.Gratitude swelled within me for Alexei, who had brought me to this tranquil haven. In that moment, I needed the peace and calm atmosphere more than ever.We strolled back along the familiar path, the sound of our footsteps mixing with the distant murmur of the waterfall. The moonlit night accompanied us, casting a soft glow on everything around.The experience at the waterfall lingered in my mind like a cherished melody. It was a moment of serenity and beauty that I desperately needed.Alexei's thoughtfulness in sharing this hidden gem with me made my heart swell with affection.As we walked, the world seemed quieter, more peaceful. The worries that had been gnawing at me earlier felt distant, rep

ALEXEIMy main concern was for Zoey as I wished to shield her from any harm. The adrenaline surged through my veins, my senses on high alert, calculating each move with precision.Zoey's whimper cut through the chaotic symphony of gunfire. "I don't want to die, Alexei."I turned to her, my gaze softening. "You won't, little sparrow. I won't let anything happen to you." The determination in my voice was as much for her as it was for myself. I couldn't afford to lose her.The car continued its relentless pursuit, bullets pinging off the bulletproof windows. I took a deep breath, assessing the situation. We needed a plan, and fast."Zoey, hold on tight," I warned, my eyes focused on the road ahead. I accelerated, weaving through the narrow streets with practiced precision. The pursuing car followed relentlessly, its occupants relentless in their pursuit.Zoey's grip on the seat tightened, and her eyes were wide with fear. "What

ALEXEIAfter ensuring that Zoey was in a deep sleep, I quietly slipped out of our room and made my way to the office. There, I found Yaz and Viktor waiting for me. We were all concerned about how Zoey had handled the recent attack."How's she?" Yaz asked, genuine concern etched on his face.I wearily slumped into the chair in front of the mahogany table. "She was scared," I admitted, I recounted the events of the attack as soon as we arrived home."Anyone in her shoes would've been scared," Viktor chimed in, understanding the gravity of the situation.Turning my attention to Yaz, I asked, "Do you have Pavel's location?"Yaz nodded. "He knows you're coming for him, so he's hiding out in a motel down south.""Does he have any men with him?" I prodded further.Shaking his head, Yaz replied, "It's suspicious, but he's alone.""It could be a trap," Viktor warned.I nodded, acknowledging the possibility. "Viktor, I need you on standby. Yaz and I will check him out, and if it turns out to

ALEXEII maintained my stern expression, studying Pavel's every move. The room was tense with anticipation as I contemplated the best way to handle the situation."Why were you after us?" I demanded, my voice unwavering.Pavel hesitated for a moment before answering. "It's business, Alexei. Nothing personal."I scoffed at his attempt to downplay the severity of his actions. "Attacking me and my wife in the dead of night doesn't seem like 'just business.'"Yaz, standing by my side, added his own remark. "You picked the wrong man to mess with."Pavel glared at us, a mixture of fear and resentment in his eyes. "You've become soft, Alexei. Too attached to your little family."I clenched my jaw, suppressing the anger building within me. Family was a sore point, and he knew it.Before I could respond, Yaz stepped forward. "Enough of the chit-chat. Where is he?"Pavel's eyes darted nervously between Alexei and me in confusion. "Where is who?"The tension in the room was palpable, and I could

ZOEYTime seemed to slip away as Alexei delved deeper into his plans to take down Mikhail. His days were consumed by strategy meetings, covert operations, and endless preparations for the impending confrontation.Despite his overwhelming schedule, Alexei always made it a point to check in with me. Whether it was a quick call, a brief moment together over breakfast, or a stolen kiss before he disappeared again, he ensured that I felt his presence amidst the chaos.Lately, I've been feeling off, waking up either sick or exhausted every day. I didn't want to bother Alexei with my problems, so I kept it to myself. Today, he left early before I woke up, and I decided to freshen up and change into comfy clothes before heading downstairs.In the kitchen, Olga was at work. "Good morning, Olga," I greeted with a smile."Good morning, my girl. How was your night?" she asked."It was good. What's cooking this morning?" I inquired.

ALEXEIThe hospital room was a whirlwind of emotions – joy, relief, and a bit of lingering panic. Zoey lay in the bed, holding our newborn son, who seemed blissfully unaware of the chaos he had just caused. The guys, Viktor and Yaz, were still grappling with the reality of the situation.Yaz was pacing back and forth, muttering to himself. "Man, I never signed up for this. I thought we were just dealing with the mafia stuff, not witnessing a childbirth!"Viktor, ever the practical one, was attempting to hand me a stack of diapers as if that would solve everything. "Here, Alexei, you need to be prepared. Diapers are crucial."I chuckled, taking the diapers from him. "Thanks, Viktor. But I think I got the basics covered."Emma and Yelena, the unsung heroes in this comedy of errors, were quietly reveling in the spectacle. Yelena shot me a smug grin. "Looks like the mighty mafia boss is facing a challenge he never expected."Emma nodded in agreement. "Who would've thought that our toughes

Alexei and I found solace in each other's arms, our love strengthened by the trials we endured together. The Bratva, once a source of fear and danger, was now under our control. The dark clouds that had loomed over us lifted, leaving room for the warmth of a new beginning. We worked tirelessly to rebuild what was broken, not just in the organization but in our personal lives. Our love grew stronger as we faced the challenges together. The scars of the past were healing, and the future looked brighter than ever. Yelena, Emma and the guys stood by our side, their loyalty unwavering.

ALEXEIThe drive to the warehouse was tense, the weight of the situation pressing down on us. Yelena, Yaz, and I were focused, each lost in our thoughts.The plan was simple – storm the warehouse, neutralize Mikhail and his men, and bring Zoey back unharmed.As we approached the warehouse, I couldn't help but feel a surge of adrenaline. The familiar sights of the criminal underworld surrounded us – dimly lit alleys, shadowy figures, and the distant sounds of the city at night.Yaz parked the car at a discreet distance. "We're here. Let's go over the plan one more time."I nodded, taking a deep breath. "We need to catch them off guard. Yaz, lead our men to the back entrance. Yelena, you and I will go through the front. We'll converge on Mikhail and Zoey from both sides."Yelena gripped the weapon at her side, her eyes fierce. "We've got this, Alexei. Let's bring Zoey home."As we moved into position,

ALEXEII stood there, staring Mikhail down. This guy had caused so much havoc in our lives. He took my brother from me, tried to harm Zoey and me countless times, messed with my businesses, and now he had the nerve to demand my Bratva.It was a sick joke.There's no way I'm handing over my Bratva to him, no matter what he thinks.But then Zoey yelled, and my blood ran cold. "Don't do it, Alexei. He has Yelena."Yelena? What had that bastard done now?Before I could react, Mikhail slapped Zoey across the face, and I felt fury boil inside me."How dare you hit her?" I roared, ready to tear him apart. But then he grabbed Zoey and pointed his gun at her head."Take one step, and she's gone," he sneered, his gaze daring me to defy him.He ordered his scar-faced henchman to go after Yelena, and I felt a surge of panic.Yaz's voice came through the earpiece, "Don't worry, Alexei, I'll follow him and get

ZOEYI sat there in the cold basement, wondering where Alexei was. He had gone after Mikhail, so I assumed he didn't know Yelena and I were kidnapped.I was so thirsty and hungry, and the cold in the basement was making it worse. Yelena and I huddled together for warmth in the chilly space, but it wasn't enough to ease the discomfort.Yelena, her face full of concern, asked, "Are you okay, Zoey?"I nodded, trying to downplay the discomfort. "I am fine.""Are you sure?" She pressed.I sighed. "Just hungry, that's all." Hunger was gnawing at my insides.Suddenly, Yelena shot up and marched angrily to the door. She started banging on it loudly, yelling for whoever was responsible to let us out. "Hey! Get us the fuck out of here, assholes."Yelena's outburst startled me, and I watched as she unleashed her frustration on the door, demanding answers.I sat on the floor, too exhausted to join Yelena in her futi
BLOODSTAINED HEARTS CHAPTER EIGHTY-FIVE
ZOEYOne moment, I'm alone in Alexei's office, and the next, someone covers my nose with a wet cloth. The next thing I know, I wake up in a creepy basement.And guess who's behind this delightful surprise? Yep, my dear old grandfather, Mikhail. It's amazing how family can turn into your worst nightmare.This time, though, I'm not just scared; I'm downright terrified. There's a tiny human growing inside me, and I'll be damned if I let anything happen to my baby. No way am I letting my own blood pose a threat to my child.I'm ready to fight tooth and nail to protect my little one. Bring it on, Mikhail. You have no idea the mama bear you've just awakened.I scanned the dimly lit basement, my eyes adjusting to the gloom. The air was thick with tension, and I could feel the weight of the situation sinking in. It wasn't just me anymore; I had a life inside me, depending on me. My child. I couldn't afford to lose my composure.
BLOODSTAINED HEARTS CHAPTER EIGHTY-FOUR
ALEXEIThe room was dimly lit, the air thick with tension as Mikhail's piercing gaze met mine. The moment felt suspended in time, the weight of our shared history palpable in the charged atmosphere.I took a step forward, my eyes never leaving Mikhail's. "You didn't think I'd come knocking, did you?"Mikhail chuckled, a sardonic smile playing on his lips. "Alexei, my old friend, I must admit, this is unexpected. What brings you to my humble abode?"I resisted the urge to roll my eyes at his feigned innocence. "Cut the act, Mikhail. We both know the game we've been playing."He leaned back in his chair, steepling his fingers. "Game? This is no game, Alexei. It's survival. And in this world, only the strong survive."I scoffed at his pseudo-philosophical posturing. "Survival doesn't justify the lives you've ruined, the chaos you've sown. You've crossed too many lines, Mikhail."His eyes narrowed, a flicker of irritation
BLOODSTAINED HEARTS CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREE
ALEXEIThe concealed entrance opened into a dimly lit corridor, and we moved swiftly, our senses heightened. I led the way, flanked by Viktor and Yaz. The echoes of Viktor's team creating chaos outside served as our cover.The corridor branched into narrow hallways, and Pavel navigated with confidence, guiding us deeper into Mikhail's stronghold. The air was thick with tension as we approached the heart of the operation.The first sign of resistance came in the form of a couple of guards patrolling a corridor. Viktor's team had drawn them away, but we needed to neutralize any stragglers.With a subtle hand signal, Viktor and Yaz dispatched the guards efficiently, ensuring minimal noise. As we moved forward, the scent of musty air mixed with the acrid tang of industrial chemicals filled our nostrils.Pavel directed us through a series of winding passages until we reached a door that seemed inconspicuous but held the pr

ALEXEIThe pre-dawn darkness hung heavy in the air as I slipped out of bed, careful not to wake Zoey. A soft kiss on her forehead was my silent goodbye before I dressed in the attire of my trade – all black, from head to toe. The weight of the leather jacket felt familiar, a shield against the impending storm.I made my way to the office where Viktor and Yaz were already waiting, the air thick with anticipation. I could see Viktor, ever the showman, flexing his muscles."You sure you're up for this, Viktor?" I asked with a smirk.He grinned back, a glint of mischief in his eyes. "Born ready, boss. Ready to kick some ass."Yaz chuckled at Viktor's bravado. "Let's hope those muscles are as ready as you claim."We headed to the garage where our men were gathered, a sea of faces that mirrored a mix of determination and uncertainty. As their leader, it was my responsibility to address them, to give them purpose and instill
