Maxim was always gone for a few weeks. I rarely saw him or spent as much time with him as I would have hoped.He had been busy since we got attacked. However, he found ways to make it home to fuck me before we fell asleep and cuddle with me for the rest of the night until the early hours morning.However, when I woke up the next morning, he was always gone. I didn’t see Mikhail or Nikita either. They were all away, and it made me feel a little betrayed, especially by Mikhail. While he had promised to take me sightseeing, he hadn’t fulfilled his promise. Apparently, they were chasing a ghost. Those were the rumors I’d heard from the housekeepers. They were chasing an enemy they didn’t even know existed, and they had no leads.I didn’t know anything because Maxim didn’t allow anyone into his room—even me. He completely blindsided me with everything, and he wasn’t even trying to hide it. It seemed like we were past that point already.He didn’t shy to show me how much he didn’t think he
She and I headed to the kitchen because she could apparently make the best mimosas. She moved her way through the kitchen like a pro. She made mimosas that were very strong but hit like a bitch.“Oh, I would love to swim right now,” she said. “Unfortunately, I don’t have a swimsuit with me.”“You can borrow mine. I think we are the same size.”She and I went to my bedroom and rummaged through my closet to find something for her to wear. She was way more fun than I thought she would be. She told me all about her childhood, and I told her about mine.I didn’t lie to her—just omitted that they happened in Italy and not in Chicago. I, however, didn’t tell her anything that would make me look suspicious if she repeated the same words to Nikita.Once we found the perfect baby pink one piece for her, we both changed into the costumes. I was in a black one-piece.We went to the heated infinity pool in the mansion and conversed as we laughed and sipped some more mimosas.“You live here, huh?”
I disliked Sonya Morozov, and she knew this. I suspected she got with Nikita just so she would spite me.Not only did she have a big mouth that had no filters, but she also had no respect, and she was unable to negotiate anything when we spoke business.It was a nightmare to do business negotiations with her. She made me look bad every single time because she couldn’t even be bothered to do a little research.I didn’t understand why she was the one who would head the Morozov family in the Omertá alliance. I didn’t understand why her father would choose her.Sonya claimed I was against her because she was a woman. And while that was part of the reason why I didn’t like her as a member of the Alliance, that wasn’t the main reason.She knew nothing about the inner workings of the mafia and she didn’t make any effort to learn. Instead, she ran around town chasing after my cousin. I had told her time and time again what she needed to learn, but she didn’t listen.As for her being a woman,
And then I left. I wore baggy jeans, a simple long-sleeved shirt, and black combat boots. I hated wearing jeans, but it was either those or cargo pants. Cargo pants would only draw attention.I waited downstairs as I scrolled through my phone. I didn’t care how long I waited. I was already used to Livia taking her sweet time getting ready. She always looked beyond ethereal afterward.Her scent wafted my nose before I saw her. When I looked up, I was speechless. She may have been wearing casual clothes, but she looked beyond angelic and beautiful.She was in tight jeans that hugged her form, showcasing her round ass and wide hips. Her top was low-cut, showing some cleavage, and it was tucked into her jeans.Her hair was in a high ponytail, and she had some makeup on her face. She opted for heels to complete the look, and I knew she would regret it.However, I didn’t tell her to take them off since she seemed like she put some thought into the stunning but casual outfit. I made a mental
I saw Maxim speaking to Sergei as I spoke to Anna. She was very nosy. She asked who I was and where I was from, and I had to lie to her. I suspected she was trying to see if I was lying.However, I had practiced the lie for so long that I wasn’t sure that I would ever be able to introduce myself with my real name and identity anymore if things were to change.“Where did you learn Russian?” She asked.“My father taught me,” I said. She must have seen the look I had when I talked about my father. She caught on to it immediately, no matter how fast I erased it.“You don’t get along with you father?” She asked.“He’s dead. But yes, he and I didn’t get along well with him. He did some bad things to my mother.” I answered. In a sense, Alfonso was dead, at least to me. I no longer considered him as my father.He lost that right a long time ago and continued losing it as the years went by. I had grown to resent him so much that I didn’t think there was anyone I hated more.“But he taught you
Our mouths moved in sync as we touched each other everywhere. I put my hand into the waistband of his jeans and lowered it until I cupped him from inside his pants. He hissed and cursed, but I only increased my movements.He was so hard and soft at the same time. His cock was like a steel rod that was pleasing to touch. I had never felt anything so satisfying before.“If you don’t stop, I will nut in my pants like a fucking teenager,” he said.He took my hand out of his pants and pinned both of my arms above my head. I lay flat on the roof of his car as he kissed my neck down to my breasts. All he had to do was lift my shirt to expose them.He sucked on both my nipples, giving them equal attention, I moaned and writhed under him as his mouth went lower and lower until it reached the front of my jeans.He let go of my arms and helped me take off my jeans. I also helped him take off his shirt. As I brought my hands to his belt, he stopped me again.“I want to taste your sweet cunt first
Things were going great with Maxim. We went on multiple dates and hung out more. Despite him being very busy, he found time for me. I couldn’t have been happier about this.A week later, when Sonya came to visit me, she screamed excitedly.“I don’t know what is going on with you, but girl, you’re glowing,” she said. “That's the work of Vitamin D.”I blushed and swatted her on the arm. I was embarrassed that she was talking about this out loud. I had only ever been with one man, and sex talk always made me nervous.“Wow, you’re blushing. I can see that I am right.”She was at the house, and she was wearing jeans, four-inch stilettos, and a casual top. It was unlike her. I had logged into Instagram, and from what I could see, she liked to dress up and wear makeup.That day, she had on blush and lip gloss. She even had a very tiny bag, and I wondered what she came by to do. I thought we would hang out for two hours tops, and then she would leave.She had mentioned she had an important me
“We should just go. I don't want to be here anymore.”So we paid and left. He didn’t try to follow us, and he didn’t try to speak to me. He was reminding me that he was still around and that I wasn’t supposed to forget what Alfonso had asked me to do.“What was that back there? You seemed like you just saw a ghost.”I didn’t answer her question truthfully.“Nothing. I thought I saw someone I knew but it was a mistake. It shook me up, and that’s why I wanted us to leave. I’m sorry we had to.”“You don’t have to apologize for that, do you hear me?”“Yes.”With that said, we went to a lingerie shop where we chose very cute sets. I had never worn a leather lingerie before, so Sonya picked out one for me.“Since you have golden skin, you can wear a red one. I think with red lipstick and red heels, you will pull it off really, really well. Maxim will lose his shit when he sees you in this.”I smiled at first before I realized what she had said.“How did you know about Maxim and I?”“Oh, ple
With his arms around me, he slowly pulled me to face him. Then he kissed me aggressively. It was the best feeling in the world. He kissed all my worries away and made me feel safe in his arms.Our lips moved together in sync, teeth clashing, lips biting and tongues fighting for dominance. Goosebumps Rose all over my skin and electricity goes through my veins. I knew what you wanted and I wanted it just as badly as he did his hands were all over me fondling my breasts, kissing my neck, rubbing my hips and needing my butt.Caught in the wave of euphoria that was brewing between us. I found myself taking off my jumper with his help in my T-shirts and next while my sweatpants until I was just in my underwear in front of him.He also took off the shirt he was wearing as well as his cargo pants, and we found ourselves tangled in the mess of our passion, right there against the flow to the ceiling window. I explored his chiseled body with my hands, cheering them everywhere as if I couldn’t g
As soon as we landed in Chicago, a wave of nostalgia hit me. The weather was exactly how I remembered, and for a moment, I could imagine going back to the life I lived before I was taken to Russia.However, no matter how much I tried picturing myself enjoying it, I couldn’t. I knew it would be more mundane than before, but at least I wouldn’t be facing the threat of death every single moment of my life.As soon as we stepped off the jet, four black SUVs were waiting for us, along with a lot of guards. They were all wearing black suits with black sunglasses over their eyes and guns in their holsters.We were led to one of the SUVs, and it immediately drove off. I stared out the window from the airport to wherever we were going to be staying. The whole time, I kept thinking of all the happy memories I had there.And the bad ones.I barely had enough to eat most nights, and I remember being so miserable at first and then just happy that I had some freedom. I wasn’t sure that kind of life
I looked at Maxim like he was joking but I soon realized that he wasn’t. He was dead serious as he smiled and looked me in the eye. He put his hands on my shoulders and kissed me on the forehead. “You missed home a lot and I thought it was a good idea for me to take you there so you could enjoy yourself and remember what home felt like.”My heart beat so fast I thought it would beat right out of my chest. Why would he want to go back to Chicago? I had no life in Chicago. Where was I going to take him to show him that I missed the city?“We don’t have to. I know you are a busy man…”He shook his head and from the look in his eyes, I immediately knew he had already made up his mind and there was no backing down. I wanted to argue with him and then I remembered going back to Chicago would give me a way out.I could talk with my handler and she would save me. She would help me escape from Maxim and I could go on helping her take down Alfonso. It was a win-win situation. It would hurt me
Maxim was understanding and extra sensitive ever since I told him I was homesick. I wasn't sure whether it was because he felt guilty for keeping in Russia when he shouldn't have.Either way, the guilt of what I had done to him and his organization was eating me alive. I could barely look him in the eye without feeling bad.I wasn't sure how long my excuse of homesickness was going to suffice for. At some point, I was going to have to admit that something else was bothering me aside from missing Chicago.People were going to suspect I was hiding something if I didn't come with a better excuse. “What’s on your mind?” Sonya asked.She had come to visit me when she found out the boys were out of the house. She didn't like coming to the house when they were around because they forced us to train and she hated it.She hated any form of physical exercise that didn't involve shopping.“Nothing…” I answered.I hadn't even realized I was staring into space until she spoke to me. I didn't dare
Carlos being in Russia made a lot of sense. It made sense why Akira was killed suddenly. That whole family was a thorn in my side. It didn’t even make sense that he knew what was going to happen.How did he know I was going to meet Akira? How did he even know I was working with the man? We had tried as much as possible to keep this thing a secret, but somehow, it got out.“I heard you think Livie knew what was going to happen.”I shook my head, thinking about it. I couldn’t see her willingly betraying anyone. If she was doing it, I couldn’t help but think that maybe she was being threatened into it or something.Either way, if she was the one who telling all my secrets, she needed to pay for it with her life. She was no exception from all the people who had betrayed me in my lifetime. She needed to pay for her mistakes.“I don’t think she was. Yes, she was acting weird, but she couldn’t have known what was going to take place. She doesn’t even know how the Bratva is run, and she makes
Livia fell asleep in my arms, so I carried her to her bed and tucked her in real nice. When she was asleep, I kissed her on the forehead and left her room. I went to the surveillance footage of her room and I didn’t find anything suspicious from the previous day. When she came from shopping, she stripped naked and went straight to the shower. It was an indicator that she had gotten upset over shopping. Her story about homesickness was checking out, but I needed to ask Sonya.I had to be smart about it, or else she wouldn’t tell me anything. She was bound to cover for her friend. If I worded my words the right way, she would sing like a canary. I picked up my phone and dialed her number. “Why do I have the displeasure of speaking to you this afternoon, Pakhan?”“I wanted to ask you something.”“Oh, and here I thought you wanted to say hi to me.”She was the only person who made me want to so something sassy like roll my eyes. She thought she was funny with her sarcastic remarks but
Maxim was suspicious of me, I could tell. If I had just played it cool and acted unbothered, he would have never had doubts that I had something do to with whatever had happened in his meeting. He looked at me like he knew I was behind everything. It was clear something really bad had happened while they were out doing their business. “Did you know something would happen? You acted weird in the morning like you didn’t want me to leave. What did you do?”My acting skills were going to have to save me from the whole situation. I couldn’t let Maxim find out that I had put a bug on him. If I did, he would kill me, and Alfonso would kill Allegra. In that moment, I wished the ground would just open up and swallow me alive. “What happened? I didn’t even know something went wrong until you told me just now.” I said. He looked for any signs of deceit in my eyes, but he wouldn’t find any because I was a pro at acting like nothing was going on. “Maxim, talk to me. Did anyone get hurt?” I as
I shook my head. That was not an option.“I don’t know when I will see Akira again. I can’t refuse to see him. We have to move first before someone catches on to what we are doing. Takumi might kill him once he finds out, and I can’t let that happen.”“You’re right. The Yakuza are Alfonso’s biggest allies. If we take them away, we take away some of his power.”As we were driven to the location where we would meet Akira, we went over what we would discuss. All we needed was to meet with him, give him our weapons, and then leave.The meeting didn’t even have to take that long. The ride out of town was not that long. Within minutes, we had arrived. Once we were there, we waited inside an abandoned building.We were there for ten minutes before Akira showed up.“You’re late,” I said to him as soon as he was there. I didn’t like it when people wasted my time.“I apologize for my tardiness. I thought someone was following me, so we had to lose them, but don’t worry, no one followed me here
Livia was acting weird. I could tell something was weighing heavy on her, and she didn’t want to tell me what it was. When she told me she was homesick, I didn’t believe her.But when I was in the shower, I tried to put myself in her shoes. If I were the one who had been kidnapped and sold to the highest bidder, I would miss home as well. especially because she was in a foreign land that she wasn’t used to. Most people never adapted to the cold weather in Russia.And she seemed to hate it at first, but I thought she had already gotten used to it. Looking back, I realize it was naïve for me to think such a thing. She probably was not used to it, and she wanted to go back.However, I wouldn’t let her go, so I had to find a way to get her not to miss more.Even if she was struck with homesickness, I knew there was something else that bothered her. I let her be, thinking that she would probably tell me when the time was right. And even if she didn’t, I would respect her wishes.She helped
