Whoops! Did Nicolai make a mistake?
Nicolai's eyes flashed with a warning, but his voice remained low and even. "Alessia," he said, his tone dripping with restrained power, "you're a good girl, yes? Remember, only good girls get rewarded? And I can tell by the way your body weeps for me, you want that."He reached out, his fingers trailing her jawline, coming to rest on the pulse hammering in her throat. Alessia shivered, her resolve wavering. She did want to be rewarded, to feel Nicolai's touch on every inch of her body.Slowly, hesitantly, Alessia stood, her legs trembling slightly, she stood. Never taking her eyes from his, she reached for the button of her pants, her fingers fumbling slightly in their haste. Nicolai's eyes were dark and intense as his gaze following the movement of her hands.As Alessia slid her pants down her legs, Nicolai let out a low growl of appreciation. His eyes raked over her body, taking in every curve and dip, lingering on the damp spot on her panties. Alessia felt a flush of heat rise to h
Alessia's body trembled at the promise in his words. She felt Nicolai shift behind her, the rustle of clothing telling her he was undressing. The thought of finally feeling him inside her sent a fresh gush of wetness to her core."Please, Nicolai," Alessia whispered, her voice hoarse from her earlier cries. "I need you. I need to feel you."Nicolai chuckled darkly as he returned to the blankets now breathtakingly bare. His hand gripped her hips possessively and pulled her against hard length. "So impatient, moya zayka," he teased. "But I want to savor this moment. I want to worship your body until you're begging for mercy."Alessia whimpered, her hips rocking back against Nicolai's cock. She could feel him throbbing against her, hot and hard and ready. "Please," she breathed, her voice barely audible. "I want to feel you.""Tell me, ty moya prekrasnaya devushka, exactly how you want to feel me. I want to hear all the dirty words from that pretty, swollen mouth." The feel of his large
Nicolai felt the sudden tension in her body and looked down at her with a frown. "What is it?" "Nothing." She flashed him a bright smile that didn't meet her eyes. "I'm just getting cold and I'm sure it's really late. I'm on call this weekend and I need to get an early start on errands tomorrow."As she pushed off his chest and stood, Nicolai watched, a frown marring his handsome features. He didn't like this sudden withdrawal, the way she was shutting down emotionally. It irked him when she had been so submissive and responsive to him just moments before.But he wouldn't push. Not yet. Nicolai knew that Alessia was a woman of pride and independence. Pushing her would only make her dig her heels in further. No, he would give her this space to process. If he wanted her to embrace his world, he had to go slow. The thought surprised him. Was that what he really wanted?As Alessia finished dressing, Nicolai rose from the blankets, his powerful body unfolding with grace and ease. He reache
The next morning, Alessia woke up to the sound of her alarm, the events of the previous night still fresh in her mind. She groaned, her body heavy with exhaustion, and she hit the snooze button, craving a few more moments of oblivion. But as she lay there, the memories of Nicolai's touch, his scent, and the taste of his kiss flooded back to her. With a sigh, she resigned herself to the day ahead, knowing she couldn't avoid the confrontation with Nicolai for much longer.Alessia tumbled out of bed and headed to the bathroom, her mind already racing with thoughts of what she would say to him but before she could get to the shower, a soft knock sounded on the door. Alessia grumbled, dragging herself down the hall to her small foyer. She was surprised to find not only Sergei but also Katya and another man waiting outside. The new arrival was tall and broad-shouldered, his hair neatly tucked into a chef's hat. He carried a large tray, the aroma of freshly cooked food wafting from it and ma
The shower was hot and soothing, but Alessia's mind continued to race as she lathered up. Nicolai Zhukov was not a man used to being told no, and she had a feeling her refusal to drop everything and meet with him would not sit well. She could practically hear his voice in her head, low and commanding: "I will see you at lunch, Alessia. Do not keep me waiting."She shuddered, a thrill running through her at the thought. Damn Nicolai and his magnetic pull. She was stronger than this, dammit. She had to be.After toweling off, Alessia dressed quickly in her usual scrubs and pulled her hair back into a neat ponytail. Grabbing her bag and keys, she headed out, determined to put Nicolai out of her mind and focus on her patients.The morning flew by in a flurry of activity, as Alessia treated everything from a broken arm to a nasty case of food poisoning. No matter where she went, however, she recognized a large man who had to be one of Nicolai's men-watching her. It was irritating but she di
Alessia left Nicolai's office in a daze, her mind swirling with conflicting emotions. She felt a sense of trepidation about the direction her life was taking and the hold Nicolai had on her, yet a part of her yearned for more. She had gone to meet with him ready to put up a fight, to make him call off his pit bulls and leave her alone.Yet as soon as he'd touched her, something deep inside had shifted - a clarion call to submit. As she made her way back to the bustling hospital ward, she couldn't shake the feeling that she had just crossed a point of no return, like a train leaving the station, gathering speed with each passing moment and no brake pull in sight.The rest of the afternoon passed in a blur, with Alessia's thoughts continuously drifting to Nicolai. She found herself both drawn to and frightened of the powerful Bratva boss. The combination was heady. Their intense encounter in his office had left her shaken, the memory of his commanding presence and possessive words linger
Nicolai's words sent a thrill through her body, and she felt herself growing wet at the promise in his tone. He began trailing feathery kisses along her jawline, his hands still firmly grasp hers, and then his lips were on hers, possessive and hungry. Alessia melted against him. Her hands trapped in one of his large, callused palms, she could only lean forward trying to feel more of him.As Nicolai's tongue stroked hers, taking control and thrusting slowly, she moaned against his mouth. He tasted of expensive liquor and something darker, something that was purely him flooded her tongue as Alessia surrendered to the kiss. she felt his other hand snaking under her scrub top to spread wide against her stomach before pulling the cotton over her head.Breaking away from the kiss, breathless and dazed, as the fabric past between them. She shuddered at the thought of what was to come."Let's take this somewhere more private, yes?" Nicolai's voice was deep and husky, his eyes burning into hers
Alessia stirred from her sleepy haze, the residual warmth of the dream still lingering on her skin. The memory of Nicolai's possessive kiss and the low rumble of his voice sent a shiver down her spine. But as her eyes fluttered open, the reality of the situation hit her. The moonlit bedroom was unfamiliar, the scent of masculine cologne strong in the air.Then, the softest of touches brushed against her core, and she felt the wet warmth of a tongue tease her most intimate place. Nicolai. She was in Nicolai's bed. The realization hit her like a wave of pure desire, and her eyes snapped wide open.The room was dimly lit, the heavy curtains allowing only a sliver of moonlight to peek through. She could just make out Nicolai's broad shoulders and the determined set of his jaw as he knelt between her thighs. His eyes were focused intently on the task at hand, and a strand of dark hair fell across his forehead as he leaned in closer.The sensation of his tongue lapping slowly at her core wa
