Alessio:
I wrapped my arms around Kiara’s waist as I hugged her from the back.
She smiled and put a hand on my cheek, leaning into my touch as the two of us stood out on the veranda of the suite.
“Are you still upset with me?” I whispered to her. She had been quiet throughout the day, and I was aware that it was because I had reminded her of something that she was trying to forget. Though my intentions were to let her know that I wanted to be with her, and that I didn’t want to see my life without her in the future. My message seemed to have taken a whole different turn.
“I wasn’t upset with you, Alessio” Kiara said turning around to face me. I kept my arms wrapped around her waist as she wrapped hers around my neck “the two of us have spent the whole day together, if I was…”
“You’ve barely said five sentences to me throughout the whole day, malyshka. I’m not stupid, I k
Kiara:“Someone is being a naughty girl” I said softly to Tatia who peed on her maid. Tatia looked at me with wide eyes and I nodded at the maid to walk out, I would be handling her changing. The maid walked out of the nursery and closed the door, leaving me alone with the little baby girl who had made a mess out of the place. But I didn’t personally mind, she was barely an infant, as long as she was okay, everything else didn’t matter.It was funny how attached I got to the little baby. Her beautiful blue eyes which I knew might eventually darken looked into my green ones, and for a second it was like she could see through me. Her eyes studying my expression and not leaving my face. A small smile formed on my lips as I looked down at the little child. I remember mum telling me that babies could see angels, it was when I had asked her why children used to laugh when they were on their own.It’s been two days since the men have left.
Alessio:“Ha, ha” Kiara teased. The two of us were having a video call, and I was watching her as she got ready to head to a club with Grace and Thomas. It was about ten at night back at New York, while it was six in the morning here.Turns out that things were going a little worse than she was letting out back home, Katerina had called me to tell me about Natasha snapping at her. However, I was surprised that Kiara hadn’t mentioned it, she didn’t even bother telling me that Natasha had yelled at her, and it wasn’t the first time that it happened.“What do you want me to do?” I heard the woman ask Ivan from inside the living room. Kiara frowned in confusion, and I smirked at her expression.“Is that a woman in your room, Alessio?” Kiara asked.“Yes, but she isn’t in my room, she’s in the living room” I answered Kiara hearing Ivan give her instructions of what I wanted and
Kiara:I paced around the room wearing my dress which I had initially put on to go to the club.My mind racing at the fact that the men had a woman in their room at six or seven in the morning their time, and the woman didn’t seem to just arrive; something was wrong, I just knew it. The fact that Alessio wouldn’t answer about what she was doing there made my chest ache.“Kiara?” Grace said opening the door without knocking. She never did knock anyway, but then again it wasn’t like she would be seeing anything that she hadn’t seen before “are you okay? We’re supposed to be leaving?”“I was thinking about going to Russia” I said blurting out what was on my mind before I could stop myself.“You have got to be kidding me” I heard Thomas say from beside the door. He walked inside the room and closed the door, his arms crossed over his chest. All three of us were ready to go ou
Alessio:I watched from the closet room as Anastasia dragged the now turned on Ashton who was running his hands up and down her body. She giggled and pulled on the roots of his hair as she kissed him, he bit her bottom lip and she hissed.The two of them pulled away from one another’s lips and Ashton wrapped his arms around her body before she jumped without even waiting for his command to do so. Her legs wrapping around his torso in seconds before he walked to his bed. The naked woman rubbing herself against his torso turning him on more than he already was.He threw her on the bed and she landed on it, her body bouncing a few times as she looked at him. His eyes hungrily ate her for a second before he started fiddling with his belt, Anastasia’s eyes caught mine and I got her silent message as she got up from the bed and stood up in front of Ashton. Taking the belt in her hands, Ashton wrapped his arms around her waist and brought her closer to him.
Kiara:I’ve been driving for almost an hour.Where I was going?I didn’t know.Did I care?No, I didn’t.I was well aware that Alessio had his men clearing out the road for me. Because unless Moscow only had the Aslanov family members around, it was impossible for the streets to be this empty.I wiped my tears with my right hand as I held the wheel with my left. Lyov didn’t want to give me the car keys, but Alessio nodded to him to do as I wished. He knew that he had crossed the line this time, and I was not in the mood to be in the same place as he was.What Ashton said kept playing in my head, mum being nothing but a slave to father. Father selling me as a slave for pleasure, the man not even entering the cell room where he was supposed to be. Me being lied to through all this time.The fact that my father had a wife to begin with, the possibility of him having other kids. Everything just kept t
Alessio:“Do you want us to go back to the hotel? Or would you rather go and get something to eat?” I asked Kiara who was laying her head on my arm as the two of us sat in the backseat of my car. Lyov had come a while ago to get the car Kiara took and headed back to the hotel leaving both me and Kiara where we were.“I don’t want to go back to the hotel for a while, Alessio” she said sleepily. Everything was too exhausting on her, I was well aware of that. Thomas and Grace were staying at the hotel, the pair wouldn’t rest until they spoke to Kiara and were assured that she was okay, and that I was with her.“Well, do you want us to go somewhere else? The sun is already rising. So, do you want us to go and wait for some place to open to have breakfast? Or do you want me to book us a different hotel room?” I asked gently. Kiara shrugged and I sighed, despite her and I somewhat making up, I knew that she was nowhere n
Kiara:Arriving to the Estate was never this hectic.But then again, I was never this broken going anywhere. I had regretted going to Moscow and finding out what I did, despite me not saying it out loud. But I knew that Alessio could tell that I eventually just wanted everything to end. Thankfully, he didn’t dwell or pressure me on speaking about anything while we were there.My heart ached whenever I thought of everything that I found out, and no matter how hard I tried not to think of it; I always found my mind going back to what I heard from Ashton. Ivan had not killed him when we went back to the hotel the next evening, and had waited for Alessio to do the honor. But Ashton had other plans, he wanted ME to be the one shooting him, I couldn’t do it.I looked at the gun which was in Alessio’s hand and shook my head at him, I didn’t want the man’s blood on my hands, no matter how much I hated him. Alessio respected my decisi
Alessio:I woke up with Kiara laying on top of me on my mom’s couch.My right arm was wrapped around her while my left was under my head as I slept.The two of us spent hours talking in this room, and one way or the other, we ended up dozing off on the couch.I smiled at the sight of my beauty and tightened my arm around her making her stir in her sleep before she opened her eyes to look at me. She smiled when her eyes caught my own, and I cupped her cheek bringing her closer to me as to kiss her lips. She smiled into the kiss before pulling away to look me in the eye.“Please don’t tell me you spent the whole night awake?” Kiara teased and I laughed. I didn’t blame her though, the first time she broke down back in Moscow after we killed Ashton, she fell asleep due to exhaustion while I spent the whole night awake. I shook my head and she laid her head on my chest, just over my beating heart.I didn’t even
“It seems like you’ve failed this one, Tatiana” Kyle said looking at his lover, or in other words, slave.She let out a silent laugh before raising an eyebrow at him, her eyes studying his expression as she waited for him to insult her one more time. She knew that he could do nothing at this point, he too has failed their boss’s assignment.“It seems like a cat bit your tongue? Or has seeing your daughter softened you up?”“Oh, please, you of all people know that it was always you who had a soft side toward the girl. Had it been up to me, she would have been dead ages ago, but no, you wouldn’t allow me to end her life despite it being easier before” Tatiana said walking past Kyle who grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her to him.“The girl is your daughter, and you may not admit it, but everyone sees the love you have for her in your eyes”“At least I don’t let that love
Alessio:I had my arm wrapped around my beauty’s waist as the two of us sat on the sitting room’s couch, watching a movie.We didn’t want to go down to the living room, knowing that everyone would be there. Therefore, we decided to stay in the sitting room that was on our floor. Having modified it recently, it was where we spent most of our time if we weren’t in the bedroom.I kissed my beauty’s temple and she smiled looking up at me, the love bite on her neck exposed for everyone’s eyes to see, and no matter how hard she tried covering it, I didn’t allow her to. It was one of my ways of letting everyone know that she was mine, though everyone already knew that, I wasn’t concerned about the family members though.“Alessio…” Alexei said walking up the stairs making me frown in confusion “boss wants to see you in his office”“Who’d you kill this time?” Ki
Kiara:“Easy there, girl” I smiled patting my horse as she came to a stop.I leaned down to kiss her neck and smiled scratching her hair twice “now, I’m jealous”I laughed turning to face my husband who was standing in front of the fence of the field. His arms were crossed over his chest as he watched me walk toward him. Angel ignoring the fact that I was on top of her, walked toward him and he smiled run his hand over her head as he pat her softly.“How’d you know that I was here?” I asked raising an eyebrow.“Do I not know my wife?” Alessio teased making me smile. I got down from on top of Angel, taking her reins in my hand as not to have her run around the field, she tended to do that when she was left loose, and pat the beauty’s neck before walking to my husband.His hand cupped my cheek as he gave me a soft, gentle kiss on the lips. I smiled into the kiss before the two o
Alessio:I ran my finger through my wife’s exposed thigh as she slept in my arms.The two of us have been in mom’s study room for a while now, I had wanted to be there alone. But Kiara had refused to let me live my pain alone, she knew that I would be here to hide my pain away, and it was something that she hadn’t allowed since Alex had died.Her and I have spent a few nights at numerous hotels in the past month, however, I knew that with us staying there, it was impossible for me to run away from the pain that I was living. Thankfully, Kiara had been supportive to me through it all.I kissed her temple as she slept, her hand was under her head over my chest and I couldn’t help but smile at the sight of her looking as innocent as she did. Her angelic face relaxed despite the pain she too was in.It amazed me how she was able to help mend my pain when she should have been focusing on her own as well. She hadn’t brought
Kiara:The funeral happened three days after Alexandra was buried.Alessio had made sure that everything was taken care of, and despite the pain that the family was in, the man remained as tough and strong as a lion. Alessio had made sure that Alexandra’s betrayal wasn’t mentioned anywhere, she was remembered as an Aslanov family member, a family member who wasn’t spoken about. No one outside the family members knew of what happened, and Alessio made sure to make everyone mind his limits when it came to the topic.He would wrap his arms around me to breakdown at night. His walls falling apart for me to help him mend his broken wounds. I would admit that it hurt me seeing him in such a state, but I managed to stay strong for his sake. Ignoring the shock that I was feeling about everything that I’ve learned in a short span of time, I stood strong for my husband.We had just arrived home and Damien walked straight to his office, Artur
Alessio:“Anything?” I asked Ivan walking inside the basement to find him pulling Alexandra’s head out of the bucket of water.“Not a thing, the woman is as stubborn as you are, if not more. But don’t worry, she’ll crack eventually” Ivan answered as Alexandra coughed twice. She glared at him before spitting on his face making him raise an eyebrow “stubborn, traitor, and stupid…”“Ivan” I said raising a hand stopping him from going on “can you leave us alone?”Ivan raised an eyebrow but I nodded again, Alexei who was helping Ivan walked out with him leaving me and my sister to sit alone in the basement. I sighed and walked behind her, she tensed fearing that I would be the one tormenting her, but I wouldn’t be able to do so, not yet anyway.I untied her hands then got on my knees in front of her, my eyes fixed on hers as she frowned in confusion while I untied
Kiara:I woke up to find myself surrounded by people.Their voices rang in my head despite them practically whispering.I frowned and struggled to open my eyes only to find myself on a hospital bed, the voices belonged to Thomas, Grace, Arda, and Natasha. Alessio, Damien, and Artur were also here. However, all three men were quiet.Alessio’s eyes had dark circles under them from lack of sleep, his expression softening when he caught my open eyes. Getting up from the couch he was sitting on, he walked toward me catching everyone’s attention before he leaned I and kissed my forehead. I could barely feel my body, but the pain that was in my chest was enough to break a grown man, and judging by Artur’s expression, he either knew the reason behind my pain, or he was feeling the same one.Trying to sit up, Alessio softly pushed me down not allowing me to “you barely got out of surgery a few hours ago, malyshka, you need to rest&rd
Alessio:“What do you mean Kiara is in trouble?” I asked Natasha whose eyes were as wide as a frightened deer.“I saw Lyov carrying her out of her room, Alexandra and Delilah were both following behind. She was unconscious…”I walked past Natasha to my and Kiara’s room, expecting to find this being a dirty joke only for my hands to shake when I saw the necklace I gave her thrown on the bed. Kiara was nowhere to be seen, however, I noticed that our things were rummaged through.I ran out of my room to the camera room my hands shaking as I feared the worst, Ivan catching sight of me followed me. However, the two of us froze at the sight of the slaughtered men in front of the camera room. I took out my gun, Ivan, dad, and Artur who had also followed us here. All four of us froze for a second when we found that both camera men were brutally stabbed before getting slaughtered beside their chairs.“What happened
Kiara:“Hey” Natasha said when she saw me entering the living room. Alessio had gone to his office as soon as we got into the house.“Hi” I said smiling. She hugged me tightly and I sighed.“Trouble in paradise?” She asked and I shook my head.“I’m just worried about Alessio, things just got a little too messed up” I answered looking at the wall before dismissing myself to my and Alessio’s room. I needed to get some rest anyway, the way home was long, and the fact that Alessio and I had gone from Niagara back to the hotel was a long enough drive as it was.“It seems like the little princess had come home, or must I call you queen now?” Alexandra’s voice startled me the second I closed the bedroom door. She was sitting on top of our bed looking at me with a raised eyebrow “oh, come on, kitten, why do you look so surprised to see me inside my brother’s bedroom?&
