Becca's wedding

Three years later .... 

It's been almost six months I  been in Russia . My life is all fucked up . Vlad , my brother doesn't let me go out . Even if he let me out it's mandatory that one bodyguard has to follow me everywhere . 

I feel like a prisoner who has to ask permission before doing anything . He really is overprotective . He scares that something wrong may happen to me . He being a Russian Mafia leader has so many Rivals but I don't understand why it always have to be me who sacrifices her freedom . It is one of the reason I despise mafia thing . 

I sat idle in my room scrolling down the i*******m . I skipped today afternoon's meal as I was angry on my brother . The another reason is that i want to get leaner , I fancy for that perfect curvy figure . I was checking on my phone when my phone vibrated . I looked at the screen . It was Becca .

Since I been here I never met Becca though she is Russian  . I picked up the call hurriedly ;" здарова (hey )" I said plainly .  On the other hand , she sounds so exciting ;" hello.....babe ...I have something to tell you " she yelled on the phone . 

 I flinched at her high pitch of voice . She is usually very loud . I was curious  so I uttered ;" what " . She sighed before saying ;"brace yourself before hearing .....I am marrying " she shouted .

I was very surprised . I didn't expected . I stood on the bed and started jumping ;" oh my God...ohh my God...really ......this is insane ..I can't believe it ...congratulations love " I shouted loudly on the call .

I was aware that servants down there in our mansion might have heard me but this was so special  . My bestfriend is getting married . I was so happy for her . She has a boyfriend since we were in LA . They both were madly in love with each other . So I wasn't surprised if they marry . She started insisting ;" I don't know... you are coming ..... " she said . 

I really wanted to attend her wedding but vlad . My brother thinks he holds the world under his finger tip and every person should act according to his wishes as he is the ruler . I bite my nails anxiously . I don't know how I will convince him . 

Out of curiosity  I asked Becca;" when and where is the wedding ?" . I have to be prepared with a plan so I could escape him .for that I needed all the information . She sighed ;" it's in Sicily next week " .

I was silent and speechless . Why in all the places of the world she has to choose Italy . Vlad will not in a million  years agree if I tell him I want to go Italy . In mafia world , Russian and Italian mafias were blood thirsty enemies  . They never leave a single opportunity to kill each other . I was sterned ;" see you soon " she said and cut the call .

I laid down on the bed and sighed . I searched down " sicily " on the search engine . I was amused to see that cool blue beaches, white lands ; architecture .  It is an amazing place to relax and  levitate . A perfect destination for marriage .   

                                   *************

My heart pounds hard in socket as I knocked his  office 's door . After few knocking I heard his voice ;" come in " . I was very nervous . It's usually happens with me when I have to face my brother .

He remained sitted on his desk arranging some files and looking at his desktop . He has this dominating aura which can make anyone timid around him . I played with my fingers anxiously as I said ;" vlad...I have something to ask you " . His blue eyes shifted his gaze on me .

Now I was the centre of his attention . " what Winnie " he uttered meeting his fingers of both hands . I gulped the water in my throat as I said ;" brother ...Becca is marrying and she has invited me to her marriage " I said .  He knitted his brows " so ?" He asked . I took small steps toward him as I try to approach him ;" so I want to go " I said . 

He took his time . It appeared as if he was thinking something . Then after a few seconds he mouthed " No " . I knew it . He never gonna allow me . I was firm  on my pursuasion;" but she is my bestfriend " I reasoned meekly .

He glared his Lazer blue eyes on me " I said Nooo" he said . His denial was the boundary that no one should cross .  I stomped and jumped my feet in irritation . He always does that ! .  He became tensed holding his head .  He yelled " QUIET" at me . He was annoyed .  I hate it how demanding and rude he sounds . I flinched . I strode outside his office heavily  . 

I went directly to my room . I sat on my bed .  What he thinks of himself ? . I know he is my brother and I love him for that but he can't take every decisions for me . I am not a kid . I am 23 and grown up . 

I wanna live my life independently without his regulations . I heard foot steps . I know it was him . He sat on the bed beside me ;" Winnie....don't be stubborn.. eat " he said gently .

I turned my head to the opposite direction . I don't want to see his face . Seeing his face makes me weak .He sighed ;" I know ...you don't like to be in control ....but sweetheart I am not a normal person ....I am a Mafia head ..my enemy may do anything to hurt my family ...I want to keep you safe " he said . I know his care for me . I knew it all but he can't prison me . He gasped ;" ok fine ...but only this last time ...then you will do whatever I say " he surrendered . I  gazed at me and hugged him tightly ;" thank you brother...I promise  " I said .

He smiled and held me stroking my ash colored hairs . We broke our hug . We ate the dinner together . Out of his curiosity he asked ;" so..where is the wedding ? " . I escaped my eyes from his gaze ;" it's in LA " I lied .
