Craving Him, My Step-Brother Chapter 12
RUSLAN POV Seated in my office and typing away on my laptop, I was so engrossed in my work that I didn't hear the knocking on the door.Another knock snapped me out of my thoughts and I took off my glasses, shutting the laptop at once.I could tell from the desperation behind the knock, that there was something important I should know about.“Yes, come in.” I replied and almost immediately, Nicko burst in, his face blank, but I could see the rapid movement in his eyes.“Why are you here? Report.” I ordered and Nicko drove his fingers into his wavy black hair.“If you aren't ready to report, leave now and take care of the matter yourself.” I glared.“Someone stole from our goods.” He finally spoke up after few seconds of silence.I knew it. Something was wrong from the way he knocked and the desperation in his eyes.I guess some motherfucker will be dying tonight, by my hands.“Who is it?” I asked, my voice deep and calm.It implied to; a calm before the storm.“We don't know for sure

TRIGGER WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS VIOLENCE. RUSLAN'S POV They laughed. They fucking laughed at me like I was the most funniest person on earth. And I swear to God, the urge. The sudden will to gouge out all their eyes and grilled it for Viking, my dog to eat, overwhelmed me. Overpowered me. My hands began to ache, itch and my demons wanted to consume blood. I was barely keeping them at bay. “Did I say something funny?” Annoyance wormed it's way into my chest. “What did Caleb took from you? Just a few arsenal? Are you kidding me?” The leader stepped forward, towering over me like a giant. He should know by now that things doesn't work well because he is a giant. David fucking took Goliath down with just a stone, but me? I’ll be taking him and every motherfucking gangsters in that warehouse with my silver dagger. “Aren't you supposed to be a generous Bratva? Losing a few arsenal won't be the end of you or your clan, hell, it doesn't take a cent from you.” “But

IVANA'S POV I've always thought that Ruslan doesn't just show up in front of me with blood-socked shirt, but last night, I believed otherwise.I thought of it as a coincidence but not after what he did the previous night.He used my phobia to make me succumb, leaving me with no option but to obey his every command.With the urge to throw up clawing at my throat, threatening to leave my mouth without permission, I had to run to the closest restroom to poke my guts out.Will I ever get better?Will there come a day when I won't be afraid of blood? When I won't feel the need to throw up at the sight of it?I really hope that day comes, but as for now, I have to avoid Ruslan.If I can't win against him, at least, I could be a coward and avoid him the best I could.I slept with only one mission in mind; avoid my step-brother the best I can for as long as possible.But guess what?Things didn't worked out the way I planned it before going to bed.I head downstairs for breakfast the next mo

IVANA'S POV Annoyance, hatred, frustration, vulnerability, they all wormed their way into my chest as I stared at him.I badly wanted to reply back at him, but his steel eyes settled on me like a punch in the guts. Glaring at him with my fists folded by my side, and my fingers digging into the palm of my flesh, almost drawing out blood.He let out a dark chuckle, leaning further into his leather chair like a dark satan that he was.“As much as I appreciate your kindness, I don't think I need it or the jasmine tea.” I forced a smile, the kind of smile that didn't reach my eyes.“Very well then,” the deep timber in his voice vibrate through every system in my body and the incessant clicking of his fingers against his desk, ingrained in my mind.“You can take the tea away.” He dismissed with his hand and I turned around, picked the tray of jasmine tea and made my way to the door.Just before I could push it open, I turned around, staring at my step-brother who has once again returned h

IVANA'S POV As I applied disinfectant on the cuts I sustained in Ruslan's office, embarrassment morphed it way to my cheeks, tainting it crimson red. God! I've never been so embarrassed in my life. ……. During breakfast, I could barely eat since only I and my step-brother were home. Mom and Igor never informed me of where they were going and as for Lara, she was spending time with her fiancée and won't be home until tomorrow. Left with an intolerable step-brother, I was finding it hard to swallow the lump of a food in my throat. Silence unlike anything I've experienced descend in the dining room, and the only sound which could be heard, was that of the cutleries. As the second passed by, my mind drifted back to the scene at Ruslan's office and it made my hold on the cutlery tightened, imagining he was the cutlery instead. “If you want to kill me, do it directly, stop taking it out on the poor cutlery.” The corner of his lips twitched, yet he spared me no glance. “I'

IVANA'S POV Ruslan being into men, was the only justified reason why he doesn't like me. The only reason I can come up with, because his hatred towards me can't be justified. But he also has a sister, Lara. He never behaves that way towards her, but to me? It was a different case. I just can't think of how many times I've suffered all because he wanted to assert his dominance on me and make me obey his rules. Like a puppy. …… My eyes were glued on the lecturer who was so engrossed in his lecture to even notice someone like me staring. I just can't get the image of Ruslan smiling at the lecturer out of my head. Was he really into men? If it turns out that the lecturer is his boyfriend, it wasn't a bad decision after all. The lecturer, whose name I don't know, is an handsome man with thick brows, full lips, impeccable jawline, delicate nose. Seems Ruslan had a certain taste in men, and moreover, they both shared the same personality. Cold, dark. A sigh escaped

RUSLAN'S POV Nikolai Vicenzo . My best friend since childhood. We grew up together under the Vikings Clan, with his father and mine as the right hand man and his father as the left hand man of the Bratva of Vikings Clan, fifteen years ago. After the death of his father, Igor took him under his wing when he was creating Vipers Clan, so we were basically brothers. We lived together up until we were thirty years, before he left the clan to start a life for himself. A life different from the one I had pictured for both of us. When he said he wanted a life which doesn't thrives on conflict, blood, death and violence, I thought he was going to start up his own business, but guess what? He became a lecturer at Hallway College, the same college Ivana, my step-sister attends. I was so surprised at how unpredictable he was, but I wasn't chanced to see him. We've not seen each other for over ten months, so today, I decided to pay him a visit at the college. With the Irish mafia

IVANA'S POV When I expected him to admit that Nikolai, the lecturer is his boyfriend, guess what? He didn't admit it and neither did he deny it. Left in between the devil and the red sea, I was caught in a dilemma, with nothing to believe. I couldn't chose which to believe. If he had denied it like I expected of him, I would be able to tell if it was the truth or not. But he already caught up with my games and decided to remain quiet about it. Frustration wormed it's way to my chest and I could barely eat dinner. …… “Good morning, Mom, Igor.” I announced my presence as I made my way into the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee. “You don't have classes today?” Mom asked, her gaze focused on the telenovela series showing on the TV screen. “I do, but it would be by 2pm.” I replied, pressing the coffee maker. I stood beside it, waiting for the coffee to fill my cup, before heading back to the sitting room to join Mom. I was never a fan of telenovelas, but I guessed I

Craving Him, My Step-Brother Chapter 63
RUSLAN'S POV My heart was racing faster in my chest as Ivana hugged me, her make-up smeared due to the tears leaving her eyes.The hold on the gun in my hand tightened and it took sheer willpower not to hug her back. So fucking tight, like without her, I wouldn't be able to survive.But I couldn't. Not in front of the guests. It might draw unnecessary discussions and rumours. It was the last thing I wanted at that very moment.Slowly, she broke the hug, gazing into my eyes. The once light-devoid eyes sparkled and I felt a stir in my chest.It was as if the life which was dead inside of me suddenly arose because of the way her lips curled into a smile. A genuine smile.“Ruslan,” the voice of my father, snapped me out of my thoughts, so I pulled Ivana behind me, aiming my gun at Jeremy who was shooting lasers at me.If looks could kill, I would be dead in an heartbeat.“What is going on?” Igor stepped forward, his brows furrowed and his lips curled in displeasure.He hated the fact tha

IVANA'S POV Peeling my eyes open, a throbbing headache slammed my head and I groaned, sitting upright, my hands massaging my temples.I need to quit drinking. It only causes unnecessary headaches and hangovers.Just before I could get up from the bed, the door pushed open, revealing Aria, Lara and Mom.My brows furrowed, not knowing what was going on. “Why are you all here?”“Take this hangover drink. Your wedding would be starting by 10am.”My heart slammed against my ribcage at the mention of the word, ‘wedding.’So it was really happening after all.The happy-ending I've always dreamt about has been swept under the rug and my dream to become a world renowned artist, was also crushed and trampled on.“What happened? You look sad.” Mom stepped closer, squatting in front of me, holding my hands in hers. “Princess, today is your wedding. Even if you're not happy, at least pretend to be. You'd be just fine.”Will I be just fine?I doubt that would be the case once I become Jeremy’s wif
Craving Him, My Step-Brother Chapter 61
RUSLAN'S POV Avoiding Ivana Alex was the hardest of all. It was so hard that I could barely keep my head working perfectly.I couldn't stop thinking of her and the way she occupied my mind without a rent was illegal.When Lara called me to come see Ivana during her last fitting, I wanted to decline as it would ruin the perfect layers I placed around my heart, but instead, I found myself in the wedding shop, seated, while waiting for her to walk out of the dressing room.Jesus fucking Christ…. When she did, I couldn't take my eyes off her.I had to fight with my demons, just so I could look away, just this once.If I didn't, things might get more complicated than it already was and Ivana's wedding with Jeremy?It would be called off… by me.I was barely holding up. I just couldn't wait for the next day to arrive so I could get her married and out of my system, as it was the best decision, but it kept getting harder with each passing second.“How does the dress look on her?” Lara asked
Craving Him, My Step-Brother Chapter 60
IVANA'S POV After the fitting was over, Lara paid for the wedding dress and we returned back to the clan.She has been grinning from ear to ear and working on something on her tablet without my knowledge.Maybe… she really didn't hide it from me, I wasn't concentrating enough to know what she was doing.Once we arrived at the Clan, I alighted from the car and walked away, all eyes on me.Like I said earlier, I was a walking dead. Even when Mom called me back to ask how the fitting went, I ignored her totally, heading upstairs to my room.“What's wrong with her?” She asked Lara who walked in with two bodyguards behind here, obviously holding the wedding dress.“Why do you ask, Mrs Orlov?” Lara furrowed her brows, halting on her track.“I called her but she didn't respond. She's so lost in thought and also pale like a walking dead.” Mom narrated to Lara who smiled.“It's nothing serious, Mrs Orlov. You shouldn't worry.” She assured Mom.Arriving at my room, I fell on the bed with my ey

IVANA'S POV Clearing my throat, I rose to my feet, moving away from the dining table. “I would love to return to my room and take a rest.”Mom, Igor and Lara settled their gaze on me, making me uncomfortable.“Don't forget, Ivana, your first fitting is in two days. Just reminding you, so you won't forget.” Lara informed me and I nodded slowly.“Thank you for the reminder.” Forcing a smile on my face, I walked out of the room entirely, going upstairs to my room.Once I was in, I fell flat on the bed, with my boobs pressing against it and my phone in my hand, staring at Ruslan's sultry words.My fingers absentmindedly threaded through my skirt, making contact with my wet panties.My fingers massaged my throbbing pussy, while I stared at the message, thinking of him.I wanted him to touch me, fuck me, make me his personal slut, but I doubt any of it would be happening anytime soon.My wedding was in six days and I doubt we'd be able to see each other, now that he was busy dealing with t
Craving Him, My Step-Brother Chapter 58
IVANA'S POV I groaned as the sun slipped into my room through the curtains. Turning from one end of the bed to another, I wanted to sleep more, but my head was slammed with ache, causing me to shut my eyes tightly, trying to make the aching go away. Minutes later, the ache wasn't leaving, so I peeled my eyes open slowly, taking in my surrounding and once I confirmed that I was in my room back at the Orlovs’ mansion, I relaxed a bit. “Arg! My head hurt.” Groaning with my hands on my head, I sat upright, massaging my temple just to reduced the hangover aching in my head. The urge to yawn took over and I raised my right hand to my mouth, trying to cover it as I yawned, but immediately my hand came in contact with my lips, the memories from last night came flooding into my head like the waves of the sea. Pecking Ruslan…. Kissing him….. Giving him a blow job… My lips parted in shock and my pupils dilated. “What have you do, Ivana?” My hands went to my cheeks, touching
Craving Him, My Step-Brother Chapter 57
RUSLAN’S POV Men feared my wrath, anger, ruthlessness. They fell on their knees, trembling at the mention of my name, but when it comes to my step-sister, Ivana Alex, I can't hold my anger for long.It was now the other way round.She always knows the perfect way to unlock and release every anger and grudge pent up in my chest.When she said she was sorry, I heard it clearly and it came as a shock to me, but I wanted to hear it once more, so I pretended like I never heard it.I leaned closer, my hands still on the steering wheel and my eyes focused on the road.I wouldn't love to get into an accident in the middle of the night. It was of no good to me or whatsoever.She was overly cute and innocent without any care in the world for me to handle.I was trying to remain cool and composed, but she unlocked the beast inside of me when she pecked my cheek.Ivana Alex was indirectly giving me a chance to fuck her, to brand her as mine and this time, I didn't hesitate.I was ready to fuck t
Craving Him, My Step-Brother Chapter 56
IVANA'S POV When Ruslan told me to remain where I was because he would be coming over, I thought of it as a mere threat, just so I wouldn't go with those boys, but turned out it was nothing close to a threat.He was so fucking serious about it. The second I set my eyes on him, he was striding towards me, his eyes blazing with fury and another kind of emotion. The kind of emotion I shouldn't call out without thinking about it twice.Ruslan is a psychopath who isn’t capable of emotions, but lately, he's been showing more emotions than I can handle and it keeps trying to tie me down.It made me crave him more. Want him more than I should. Think of forbidden things which shouldn't cross my mind at all….Before I could snap out of my reverie, he was already standing in front of me, his large hands locked against the shirt of the guy beside me.I was so dumfounded that I couldn't say a word other than watch him punch the guy, dislocating his jaw and sending his teeth flying out of his mo
Craving Him, My Step-Brother Chapter 55
RUSLAN'S POV I wasn't the overprotective kind of brother to Lara. I never was, not until Ivana Alex came into the picture. With her innocent looks, she has destroyed and disrupted so much in my life that can't seem to return back to normal anymore. I doubt my life could be as perfect as it once was. After they were gone, it took sheer willpower not to send Felix and Mark after them for protection. With the Irish mafia hovering around, it wasn't safe for them, but nevertheless, Lara assured me. She promised to give me a call if things went wrong, but it's been hours since they left, but I got no call or whatsoever. I had paperworks to handle and also needed leave for my warehouse for inspection of the goods coming from Italy, but it has been an hour, yet, I couldn't bring myself to concentrate on my work, let alone leave for the warehouse. Seated behind the desk with my phone and paperworks on the desk, I spaced out. Lara has always been the party type and neither could I
