CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Viktoria
Anika closed her eyes, her nails digging into Klaus's shoulders as the devastating orgasm tore through her, his words echoing through the room and in her chest, her heart pounding as she tried to take in what had just happened. "I love you, too" Klaus whispered back, sending a shiver down her chest, the man kissed her gently, sliding gently off her. "It's not fair," she finally whispered, trying to ignore the sweet sensation of his touch. "I never said it would be," he replied, sitting up enough to look into her eyes. "Do you regret it?" he asked, Anika took a deep breath, but finally let her breath go. "No" she admitted reddening "I…love you" the words although strange after so long, they felt right, Klaus smiled softly, looking like a contented child, which made his heart clench again "I love you" she repeated forcefully , finally assimilating the words as a fact, it would be ridiculous not to admit it after so much, too much had happened since their first meeting, to deny that t

Klaus observed Anika wrinkling her nose at the cannoli plate. It had been a couple of days since their meeting with the Wagners. Recognizing Viktoria as their own in front of the couple had been a positive change for her. Edgar, Klaus, and Horace had met, but things had not ended well, especially after the deal they had made just before the adoption bomb exploded. The little girl, who did not really understand what was happening, had remained calm most of the time, but Adeline had clung to her with fear, and Horace was definitely hiding something. But finally, Anika had appealed to Adeline's motherhood so fervently that even Klaus had been affected, wishing more than ever that he could go back in time and have been there to protect her. The women had come to a silent agreement in which, at least, Anika could see the girl, without telling her the truth, which both he and Anika had accepted, aware that the transition would be difficult for the little one. So Klaus had finally decided t

"Her name is Mrs. Joy," Viktoria informed Anika, looking at her with pride as she showed off her stuffed giraffe. It was Friday morning, and she had finally found a way to meet with Adeline Wagner on her own terms. The woman had contacted Anika, just as Viktoria had planned in the beginning. Sonya and Peter had kept their promises, and although her new friend had initially been unsure of her motives, seeing the little girl and her obvious resemblance to Anika and Klaus had convinced her to go along with it. The meeting was taking place at the boutique, with both women using it as an excuse to distract themselves. Sonya had arranged for them to have a private room and would occasionally bring samples of clothing for the little girl, which was just an excuse to keep an eye on Anika. Adeline, on the other hand, seemed willing to do anything to prevent Anika from giving her daughter a gift. "She's very pretty," Anika said, smiling at the little girl. She truly adored the way Adeline took

Klaus looked at his brother, feeling the familiar anger raging inside him. Ixander had hurt Anika, not to mention he had also sent Igor to the hospital for longer than he had expected. H is friend was still recovering, but his brother was swaying in front of him in his club office like a lucky bastard. Although Klaus knew from experience that his father had trained Ixander in a similar way to how he was training Alenna, so the man knew perfectly well how to hide his injuries. Appearing now in front of Klaus, strutting around as if the place was his own, was simply a way to taunt him. "What the hell do you want?" he asked, leaning on his hands on the desk. His brother, dressed like a gigolo, watched him with a mocking smile. "Isn't it obvious?" he asked, dropping onto the leather sofa where Edgar Nightingale had been sitting just seconds before, trying to negotiate a deal that was satisfactory for both parties. "You're making the same mistakes as Kolya. What the hell does that woman

Anika felt ansious and a little bit sick, Klaus was takin her to met his family, and it wasn't precisely a family meeting, it was in fact, a legitimate talk about business, and the most recent issue that everyone seemed to have been deciding to ignore, her and her relationship with Nikolay, which until then, she had never considered as important enough for an entire house of mobsters to have to discuss. "Although it may not seem like it, the Bratva is a family, and since my father took control, the Petrovs have to appear strong, Nikolay's death was a hard blow," Klaus had explained to her, looking uneasy. "Tonight you'll hear a couple of unpleasant things." "Will your father be there?" Anika asked, swallowing hard. Klaus nodded. "He's the boss, tonight will be something interesting, but hopefully nothing violent, Ixander promised to behave." Anika paled slightly at the mention of Klaus's brother. "Ixander?" she asked nervously, feeling a chill run through her body, but Klaus had re

"Let's be clear, I'll get straight to the point," said Mikhail, joining his fingers in a gesture Klaus made every time he was concentrated. In Mikhail, it felt threatening. "This... relationship between you, whatever it is... I'll allow it, with one condition." Anika looked at Klaus, who raised an eyebrow in his father's direction, expectant, but Mikhail focused his attention entirely on Anika. "I know what Nikolay did to protect you, but Klaus is not stupid enough to really defy me, not if he truly appreciates his lifestyle." Klaus clenched his jaw but looked away, which for a moment made Anika feel afraid. "Nikolay stole something important to me, and you know where it is, my wife's ring. Give it to me, and I'll leave you alone." "I don't have it," replied Anika. "And is all this really for a ring?" she asked, confused. "Mother's ring is not worth as much as diamonds," Klaus pointed out. "Why do you care so much?" "It's an offering of peace," the man said slowly. "I already lost

Klaus was angry, even though his plan to get his father's attention had worked, now Anika was mad at him, and his brother Ixander had definitely noticed. As usual, no one mentioned the bloodstain on his shirt or the wound on his forehead. Everyone knew what had happened. It wouldn't be the first or last time. A part of Klaus had really wanted to pull the trigger, but he knew that doing so would be more of a headache than it would be productive. Klaus and his brothers knew that doing something like that required more than just bravery. They had learned it the hard way."How's business with the Urich?" his father asked, looking at him from across the table."It's done. Constantine withdrew his men, but we still haven't found the stolen container," Klaus replied, taking a sip of his whiskey. Anika barely touched her food, playing with it while avoiding her brothers' gaze but still attentive to the conversation."We need a shipment for next week," Dmitri informed, clearing his throat. "I

Klaus pushed Igor against the wall, angry, pressing the gun against his friend's jaw, it was still hot, after all, his father had had one last surprise waiting for him outside the house, and Klaus had had to get his hands dirty, which he hated."If you take her away from me again, I'll kill you," he growled, going after Anika after noticing she had taken too long in the bathroom, Ivan had finally informed him of how Igor had not only avoided telling him how the woman had been sick minutes before, but had also taken her without his authorization outside his father's mansion. "If anything had happened to her...""But it didn't," Igor growled back, gritting his teeth, his nose bleeding slightly from the punches. "She's your wife, I have to follow her orders, remember?"Klaus narrowed his eyes, threateningly, annoyed at seeing the amused glint in his friend's eyes, who was evidently enjoying seeing him irritated.Annoyed, mainly because Igor was right, Klaus had ordered him to take care o

CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Funeral
The Wagner's funeral would be televised, which made Anika uneasy. She knew that the fact that Viktoria was now officially with her would not bring about good opinions regarding the adoption. However, Klaus had insisted that showing up and facing the situation would be the best for everyone, not to mention that Viktoria had the right to attend and see her relatives.While getting the girl ready, Anika couldn't help but think that maybe staying away from her would have been the best choice. Even if she wasn't responsible for the Wagner's death, she couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. After all, if it weren't for her, the Wagners would have returned home, and Viktoria would still be a happy little girl. Even if she didn't know the truth, it was the only way Anika could imagine her daughter being completely happy.She dressed the little girl in the same way Adeline used to, with a black tulle dress and a small bow at her back. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail. Anika herself wore a d
CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Baby
Anika's hands trembled uncontrollably as she looked at the small urn in front of her. Her legs gave way completely, a sense of weight settling in her chest, and the pain, raw like that first day, along with the memories, hit her abruptly. She carefully took the urn, it was light, perhaps too light, but she cradled it against her chest as tears fell down her cheeks, and a cry of pain escaped her lips. "My baby," she cried as she kissed the lid of the urn, while memories forcefully invaded her. For years, she had done everything possible to push away the pain, to hide it in the deepest part of her mind, just like the things Mark had done to her, deceiving herself and forcing herself to remember only what was necessary to not lose herself in madness, in the pain that now invaded her. The memory of her little son and what she had suffered to bring him into the world came rushing back. Closing her eyes, she thought of the feeling of holding him in her arms, the adorable laughter she had on
CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Love
Anika was startled by the sensation of Klaus sliding into bed next to her, all the anxiety and tension she had been feeling for days finally disappearing as she felt the man's arms around her body. "You're back," she said, her eyes filling with tears of relief as she clung tightly to his chest. Klaus looked tired, but he hugged her back tightly. "Is everything okay?" she asked. "It will be now," he assured her, taking a deep breath. "I took care of Gregory, Otto is not happy, but Ryan is somewhat... rational about his brother." "So, he did it? Was it him...?" she asked, swallowing hard, not daring to say the words outright. Klaus ran a hand over his face, the dark bags under his bloodshot eyes were prominent. "My men are searching the hangar right now... Your father fulfilled his part of the deal, and Constantine backed off... I asked Vlad to bring Viktor's ashes here," he added, gently stroking her face. Anika felt a knot in her chest and nodded. "Would you like to know what's in
CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Anger
Klaus got out of the car, furious, pulling Gregory along with him. Vlad and Igor had done their job and had recovered the son of a bitch, who was probably under the influence of something judging by the shitty smile on his bloodied lips. Otto, his brother, was waiting for him in the cellar, clenching his lips as he watched them with a tight jaw. "I told you to control him," Klaus growled, pushing Gregory towards his brother. The younger Urich was battered and had a deranged look on his face, but he stumbled into Otto and fell to the floor, pointing an accusing finger at him and spitting in his direction. "He killed three of my men, sold the damn weapons to the Kasakovs." "Are you crazy?" Otto asked, looking at his brother, his face turning red. Gregory spat. "I only did what you and Ryan refused to do," he complained. "Too scared of the Petrovs to get the money." "Shut the fuck up," Otto growled, hitting his brother in the face and pushing him against the wall, causing him to stum
CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Viktor
She had managed to process what had happened; her heart sank immediately at the memory of the Wagners. Even though she had been tempted to permanently keep Viktoria away from them, knowing that her little one would not only have to endure being separated from them but also her death, even if she was too young to truly remember, made her heart ache. To make her daughter suffer so early in life caused her heart to constrict with pain."Klaus?" she asked as she sat up. She was on a couch that seemed vaguely familiar. After leaving the police station, she had tried to get some sleep in the hotel room Klaus had arranged, but it wasn't long before they had to move again. All the movement was mainly exhausting for little Viktoria."Shhh, I'm here," Klaus said as he approached her. They were in a small but comfortable room. Klaus knelt in front of her, with dark circles under his eyes. He wore the same shirt as the day before, though without a tie and unbuttoned. His hair was disheveled. "Are
CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Doubts
Klaus left Anika and Viktoria to rest in the room before meeting with Igor. According to his man, all the guards were under investigation, so the unnecessary attention from the police had quickly raised his father's alarms. Mikhail called around five in the morning, sounding angry."What the hell is Constantine doing searching your house?" his father asked with an annoyed shout."Take it easy, I have nothing incriminating in the penthouse," Klaus assured, taking a cigarette from the pack that Igor handed to him. He took a deep drag, grateful for the nicotine to relieve the stress, and sank into the sofa."How the hell did you let this happen?" his father insisted. "Constantine right under our damn noses," he grumbled. "You're lucky the lawyer found a way to get you out of there.""I can handle it," Klaus insisted. "I had nothing to do with this shit... although it's suspiciously convenient. I need Ixander. I'm sure they're watching me. For anything else, Igor and Vlad will go in my pl
CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Questions
"Are you really doing this?" Constantine squinted his eyes in his direction before sitting down in front of him. Slowly, he laid out the crime scene images. Klaus observed them but forced himself to look at the pictures. The bodies of Adeline and Horace had been left in the middle of the rented room. Their hands were tied, and from what he could tell, it had been a quick execution. "What I really want to know is why your fingerprints are all over the crime scene," Constantine said, placing his hands on the table. "A man like you... I'm sure you would do whatever it takes to get Anika's daughter back without the Wagners getting involved." "Oh, you're right about that," Klaus replied, leaning forward. "I was in the suite. Anika and I went for Viktoria, just like we've been doing regularly for the past two months," he assured. "I have all the evidence you want, and we both know I'm not stupid enough to do something like this," he added, annoyed. "What do you gain from all this?" Const
CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Suspect
Anika stood up, trying to avoid waking up the girl before looking at Klaus. The man opened the door to the room, and Anika followed, curious to hear that Constantine was in the building, with a search warrant? Following her fiancé, Anika blinked as she saw all the guards in the living room. Around ten men in suits were standing, their serious gazes and the way Klaus seemed to tense up made her immediately uneasy."What's going on?" she asked as they headed towards Klaus's office, but the man shrugged before Vlad, who was waiting for their arrival, opened the door for them. Inside, Detective Eric Constantine and four policemen were standing, looking around. Upon seeing Constantine, Anika felt a chill run down her spine. The man was a friend of her father, with a penetrating gaze, threatening blue eyes, short blond hair styled in a military fashion, a loose-fitting brown suit, and a notepad and pen in his hand."Anika," the man greeted her."Eric," she responded automatically, forcing a
CAPTIVE - Sweet Darkness #1 Baby steps
Klaus looked at his friend, Otto, who was laughing amusedly at Klaus' obvious lack of enthusiasm. Klaus rolled his eyes while signing the papers."Oh, brother, that woman has you completely under her control," the man said, his face slightly contorted due to the scar that ran across it. "Did you really cover for me by saying it was because of me?""I panicked," Klaus complained, taking a deep breath but admitting that it had been ridiculous. "Not that she should know," he added."Oh, but you definitely owe me a session now," Otto asserted, taking the contract and glancing at it while Klaus rolled his eyes. Although he hadn't lied when he said it wouldn't be the first time he shared a woman with Otto, Anika's adverse reaction had touched a sensitive nerve. While he didn't intend to force her due to the situation, he was beginning to think that maybe he should do it. Making her let go of all her barriers was something he would immensely enjoy. "Do you really think she's good?" Otto aske
