She’s Mine (Maxim)

last update Last Updated: 2025-02-12 12:45:54

The moment I saw her, I knew she was innocent—untouched. Her innocence was like a beacon calling out to me, begging me to corrupt her and break her until the only air she wanted to breathe was mine.

I didn’t understand it at all.

The moment I looked into her eyes, I knew she was mine. She had the palest blue eyes I had ever seen. You could get lost in them. They were laced with innocence, fear, and deep down, a fire so wild I wasn’t sure I could tame.

I knew how to read people. It had been my job to learn the inner workings of the human mind to get into my target’s mind. It’s what made me a dangerous man.

I worked as an assassin for my old Pakhan until I staged a coup with Mikhail and Nikita and took over as the Pakhan. A lot of men were against the sale of flesh because they had families of their own.

They supported me until I took over fully and stopped it completely. I wasn’t stupid; I knew people still practiced it in secret. I was just glad it was a taboo.

Viktor knew it was wrong to buy me a girl. There must have been something special about her to make him break rules.

My mystery girl had fire that I had never seen in anyone before. It was just a little bit extinguished.

Not only were her eyes hypnotic, but her scent was intoxicating and her hair silky. If sirens were rea, then one of thtem was standing right in front of me. All I wanted was to mark her and claim her as mine.

I had no idea what was happening to me. Generally, women bored me. They were all after the same thing—money, wealth, status, and power. And while I wasn’t any different, I preferred a woman who didn’t look at me as a stepping stone.

Not that many people knew what the Pakhan looked like. After my sister was murdered, I retreated into the shadows. A lot of my men saw me as a ghost. I existed everywhere yet nowhere at once.

When she stepped on Viktor’s foot and tried to escape, I knew I was right. The little mouse was a fighter. I smirked, unable to control myself. It would be fun to break her to my liking.

My smirk was however wiped off when Viktor hit her and tried to do it a second time. I wasn’t able to stop myself from firing the weapon. I never missed. The bullet hit the back of his end and made an exit wound at the front.

Although I had just killed a man in front of her and she was covered in blood, she still took my hand and allowed me to help her up. She smelled like vanilla and blueberries.

I wanted to bury my face in her neck and breathe her in. However, that would creep her out.

I gave Mikhail a look and he said, “Tell Giulia to prepare a room for her in the West Wing. Give her food and water and make sure she’s cuffed to the bed. We’ll figure things out in the morning.”

I watched as the hope the little firecracker had was crushed. I let her go and walked away afraid that if I kept looking at her, I would take her with all my bodyguards watching.

As soon as Mikhail was done with my firecracker’s arrangements, he came straight to my office. I poured him a glass of dry vodka. He downed it on one shot.

“You can’t keep her,” he said as he looked at me. “I have a bad feeling about her. She can’t be trusted.”

When I remained silent and sparked a cigar, he sighed.

“If you hadn’t killed Viktor, we would know why he said she was special. She’s more than just a girl he picked up somewhere as a gift to you. There is more to her than we know.”

I shot him a look to reprimand him for how he spoke to me. I was Pakhan and I wouldn’t allow anyone to talk to me like that—even if he was my twin.

Mikhail and I looked nothing alike. We were fraternal twins. I came out first looking a lot more like my mother. I had her green eyes and blonde hair. Mikhail came a day later with dark brown hair and eyes as black as coal.

With my scar and mismatched eyes, no one could tell we were brothers, let alone twins.

“I’m sorry but you know I’m right. I saw how you looked at her. You want her. I can see the carnal need still swimming in your eyes. We should drug her and send her to the police. No one will believe she saw you and lived to tell the tale.”

I couldn’t. Maybe it made me a monster but I was prepared to be that. I couldn’t help it. I wanted the girl. I was no hero or saint.

“No, Maxim. I can’t let you do this. Remember the message it will send to your men. It will open a can of worms neither of us are prepared to close.”

I gave him another look of disbelief. Did he really think I was stupid? Only Viktor and Akim knew about the girl. No one else had to know.

“You realize you will be doing the same thing you fought so hard against? You’d be like that bastard Alfonso.”

Oh God, his rambling was starting to piss me off.

“What’s her name?” I asked.

He sighed, realizing he wasn’t getting anywhere with me. I could care less what kind of a man keeping the girl made me. She was mine and I would be damned if I let her go.

“Livia Brown.”

I managed to crack a smile as I whispered, “Livia.”

Her name was just a gorgeous and unique as she was. It felt so sounded so good on my lips.

Viktor had been right. The girl had indeed been a gift for me.

    For three days, I remained cuffed to the bed. I waited for the Pakhan to come in and show what kind of a monster he truly was, but he never did.I was in a bedroom that was much bigger than my apartment back in Chicago. It had a king-sized bed, a walk-in closet, a fully equipped bathroom, and a locked balcony.It was the best place I had lived in for a while.I was fed, taken for bathroom breaks, and I had a television to entertain me. It was bigger than anything I had ever seen, but all the channels were in Russian. What they didn’t know was that I could understand Russian very well.One of the few things I could thank Father for.What did they want with me? It was like being in that cage back again—never knowing what was going to happen next. In those three days, I never saw the Pakhan or his mouthpiece.I thought he only pretended to have morals and secretly bought women to play with. Otherwise, why keep me?A part of me really wished he was the monster I thought him to be. If he w

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   A Maid

    When Mikhail said he was letting me out, I didn’t think he was going to make a maid in the mansion. I was the only maid who didn’t reside in the servant quarters.Being a maid was better than being someone’s sex slave. It’s what made me somewhat grateful that the Russian mafia took me. All those stories Alfonso told me about the Bratva were fake.He said they were cannibals and would eat me alive and spit me out in pieces if I associated with them. So far, they were way better than the Cosa Nostra which treated women like they were sex toys to be played with.“My name is Polina and Mikhail instructed me to guide you through your duties. He made it clear you are not supposed to leave the mansion. He doesn’t trust you and neither do I. I’m going to have my eyes on you.”“Sure, blame the girl who was kidnapped,” I whispered under my breath.“Did you say something?” Polina asked.I shook my head and pressed my lips shut. I should not have said that out loud. Images of Carlo and his men be

    “You made her a maid,” I said to Mikhail.I flew to Finland for a few hours and he already made decisions without me. He may have been my second in command but that didn’t mean I wanted him anywhere near Livia’s business.She was mine to deal with.“I told you people would talk if we didn’t do something. No one will question who she is and what her role is if she is already working for us. The last thing we need is people claiming you bought a girl.”As much as I hated it, Mikhail was right. I only rose to the throne because I supported the agenda that women and children were not commodities for sale. That and the fact that I was the most dangerous man in Russia.If people found out I kept the girl Viktor bought, my men would break my rules.No one would respect my authority. It was important to lead by example. However, when it came to Livia Brown, I made impulsive decisions because I was so taken with her.I wouldn’t let her go until I figured out why she made me feel what no woman

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   A New Task

    When Mikhail told me he would give me a new role, I didn’t expect it to be Maxim’s personal maid. I didn’t understand what it meant. I thought Maxim was trying to lure me into his bed and I had yet to figure out if I was right.The uniform I was given was very different from my previous one. The previous one consisted of a long blue dress with a white collar and a white apron.The new one was much shorter, sitting a few inches below my mid-thigh. It was a short-sleeved black dress with lace trimmings on the sleeves and the hem and a sweetheart neckline that accentuated my cleavage.The outfit was topped off with a short white lace apron, white stockings, and short black Mary Janes. My hair was in a low bun with a few tendrils hanging on the side of my face.My cheeks were flushed red and I couldn’t stop shaking. I was both excited and frightened at the idea of seeing Maxim again. I always cowered under his intense gaze.“I don’t know what Maxim sees in you,” Polina said in her terribl

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   Confused

    I blushed profusely, embarrassed that I had been caught staring. Maxim wasn’t wearing glasses and he looked better without them. I briefly wondered where he got his scar from. Not that it made him ugly. It only added to the allure of darkness that surrounded him. Maxim’s gaze was almost predatory as he angled his head to get a better look at me. His gaze lingered on my chest and my thighs. For reasons unknown to me, his gaze excited me. Unlike other times when the male gaze made me feel self-conscious. I liked the fact that a man as powerful as Maxim found me attractive. I may have been a virgin but I wasn’t stupid. We both stood there staring at one another for a few seconds before he turned and disappeared into his walk-in closet. I wanted to leave but I couldn’t since he had stopped me before. The last thing I needed was to get on Maxim’s bad side. I may have been a strong girl but I remembered what Carlos did to me when I disobeyed him. Men in the mafia didn’t like resistance

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   Italy (Maxim)

    I left Russia as soon as I left my mansion. I didn’t tell Livia that, though. I still didn’t know who she was. Before I trusted her, I needed to know where she came from and why she was so special that Viktor broke the rules so he could bring her home. Every effort Mikhail had made to try and find out where she came from hit a brick wall. She didn’t raise any red flags but she remained mysterious and I hated that. Mikhail couldn’t even find her family. Not knowing who surrounded you in the mafia was like giving your enemy a loaded gun. Anyone could put a knife in your fucking back and I had to learn that the hard way. I’d taken way too many knives to my back. I was on my way to Italy to meet Nikita. He said he had something for me. Nikita was my cousin but I looked at him as a brother. He had stood by my side more times than I could count and saved my life a couple of times too. He was the best assassin I had ever trained and the best enforcer in the Bratva. He could get informa

    Maxim never came home the day he told me he would. I didn’t understand why he lied to me. He shouldn’t have told me to wait for him to come because I did. I was angry at him and I didn’t understand why. He kidnapped me and kept me in his house against my will. The only thing I should have felt for him was hate. However, it was the contrary. I couldn’t stop thinking about him. I thought about his eyes, mysterious persona, and intense gaze. I felt things for him I wish I never felt. Whatever happened, I knew it would end badly. I was the daughter of his enemy and one of the reasons his sister was dead. He would kill me sooner than later. What I needed to do was stay away from him and hatch a plan to get away from him as soon as possible. The Bratva was no place for a former Italian mafia princess who was masquerading as an American. I couldn’t help that my anger increased every single day that Maxim didn’t come back. It had been a week. That week was very miserable. What was worse

    After about thirty minutes, my hair was in a neat but messy bun. I stood in front of the full-length mirror and admired what I saw. Everything reminded me of what I gave up when I left home five years before. I hated to admit it, but I missed a life of luxury. Alfonso may have been a toxic parent but he always gave us whatever we wanted. It didn’t matter what it took. He would kill anyone if it meant his little children, also known as his trusted servants did whatever he asked. In exchange, we had to worship the group that he walked and unconditionally obey his every order.And he never failed to remind us that we wouldn’t survive in the real world without him. I proved him wrong for a while before he finally caught me and sold me off to his enemy. I wondered if he knew Carlos sold me to the Bratva. Had it all been a part of an elaborate plan to make my death nice and slow without having to do it himself?My train of thought was cut short when I caught something in the reflection

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   The Ball (1)

    I wore the gold strapless ballgown that went all the way to my ankles and put on the matching stilettos that came with it. I put my hair up in a bun with a few tendrils hanging loose around my head to accentuate my shoulders.I wore a little bit more makeup than usual because I had a feeling Maxim was taking me somewhere extravagant. I sprayed my neck and shoulders with gold shimmery body spray so I would glitter in the light.After I was done, I looked for a nice golden clutch and put all my items in it. I decided to put on some golden earrings but planned to go bare-neck. It would accentuate the dress even more.As soon as I was done, like clockwork, someone knocked on the door and asked me to meet Maxim downstairs. I wondered if Maxim had a camera in my room because it was odd that he always sent someone to get me as soon as I was done getting ready.“I’ll be right down,” I told the staff member.When she was gone, I inspected myself one more time, and once I was satisfied with wha

    Maxim was gone for three weeks. For three weeks, I waited for him to come to me and he didn’t. I was a bit scared because I thought my decisions to help people may have scared him a little. I didn’t know why I was unhappy about that.I should have been more than happy that he was leaving me alone. However, I couldn’t help that I wanted to see him—even just to look at him.I was in trouble because I was stupid enough to fall for the most dangerous man in Russia. He could kill me with a snap of my neck and he wouldn’t lose any sleep over it. I’d heard a lot of rumors about the kind of man he was.Yet, there I was, praying to see him again even if it was just once.Since he was gone and my role had been to make sure he was taken care of him and do tasks for him, I was idle for the entirety of the time I was in the mansion. I did nothing but explore and read books.Since Polina was not around, I decided to go further up the stairs of the East Wing. I thought of it as a big ‘fuck you’ to h

    I couldn’t get the events of the night we got attacked in a restaurant out of my mind. It dominated every minute of my day to the point that some people noticed I was absent-minded.“What’s on your mind?” Mikhail asked. He was one of the few people who noticed things like that because he knew me so well.I didn’t answer his question because I didn’t know where to start.When we were attacked, my whole world stood still. I didn’t know how deep my feelings for Livia went until the idea of anything happening to her crippled me.I’d looked at her, ready to protect her but she had already gotten on the ground to seek shelter. She worked well under pressure, and she didn’t look scared at all. After establishing she was okay and out of the line of fire, I ran for my gun.I’d looked back at her and there was, helping other people. She had been leading them to a backroom to get protection. I chose at that moment to cover her so nothing would happen to her as she was helping.I thought she woul

    The walls must have been bulletproof because they didn’t shatter after the first few shots. Immediately they shattered, I got down immediately. Women and children were all screaming and crying everywhere.People had been shot and they were bleeding and my heart cracked. I immediately sprang into action, moving towards the helpless women and children.I grabbed some staff on the way who were scared shitless. It was clear something like that had never happened in that establishement before.We were all crouched on the ground, hiding behind tables to avoid getting shot.“We need to barricade this area with tables so we can lead women and children to safety. We don’t want any casualties.”Together, we put up as many tables as we could. It wouldn’t do much but it was better than flying blind. “Is there a backroom they can hide?” I asked. A staff pointed in a certain direction with shaky fingers.I didn’t waste any time leading everyone who was helpless there while looking around to avoid

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   The Restaurant

    The whole way to the restaurant, Maxim couldn’t stop glancing at me. Every time I felt his eyes all over me, leaving a trail of fire in their wake, I blushed harder than the last time.By the time we got to the restaurant, I was sure my cheeks would fall off due to how inflamed they had gotten.Maxim stepped out of his car and opened the door for me. He held out his hand for me to take and helped me out of the car. His driver/bodyguard gave the valet his keys and we headed inside what looked like a very prestigious restaurant.It was magnificent with shiny marble floors, magnificent light fixtures and chandeliers, and glass walls.The restaurant screamed nothing if not money and power. Contrary to what you expected from a restaurant like that—for it to be fully packed, it only had a few guests.Maxim left his bodyguard behind and handed over all the guns he had. I didn’t even know someone could hide those many guns hidden on his body.As soon as he was done, he was whisked. When the m

    To say Maxim treated me like a princess was an understatement. He took me shopping and asked me to pick out all the clothes, shoes, and bags I wanted. I even bought my own self-care products, lotions, perfume, and makeup. I didn’t pretend I was modest with it either. I picked out all the items I wanted, no matter how expensive they were. He had all the money and if he was going to keep me captive, I might as well take advantage. He didn’t mind, though. He went all out on everything. That particular day, he left a note on my bed asking to take me out on a date. I had a feeling he wasn’t really asking. He looked like the kind of a man who didn’t take no for an answer. I couldn’t hide my excitement after I read the note. I couldn’t deny that I was warming up to him. I may have acted like I hated being in Russia, but he was starting to make it very exciting. He and I didn’t speak much, but his actions told more than he did by word of mouth. I immediately jumped in the shower and cle

    “You fucking psycho!” Veronika yelled as she stormed into my office. I was growing sick and tired of her. I needed a strategy to get her out of the house as soon as possible.I couldn't fucking stand her.“No one dares talk to Maxim the way you do. You may want to rephrase your words.” Mikhail told her.She gulped and whispered a barely audible apology. She had a big ego and the contract I signed stating I would marry her was giving her a fucking big head.She was lucky I didn't know where the damn contract was. I would have burned it and denied any knowledge of it. “My agent dropped me and my magazine shoot was cancelled. I know this was all your doing.” She said. I could tell she was fuming and she could barely control herself.“You should have thought about that before you did everything he warned you not to do.” Mikhail said smugly.She looked pissed beyond words. She was a model who walked runways and did commercials for certain brands as well as magazine covers. Her livelihood

    Whatever Mikhail said to Livia upset her and I know he said something. I should have never left him lingering on her doorway when I went to speak to the doctor.I should have asked him to let her rest because now, I wanted to kill my own fucking twin. He straightened his posture when I walked into Livia’s room.When he and I made eye contact, I gave him a look and he followed me outside. He could read me better than anyone, and that was why he was my spokesman. Lots of times, I didn’t have to tell him what to say.He just automatically knew.“What did you say to her?”“Nothing—”“Are you fucking lying to me?” I asked.He sighed and ran his hands over his face. I had a feeling I wouldn’t like what he was about to say.“She is lying. There was someone else in that room with her. Someone screamed when that glass shattered. If she is lying about something as simple as this, then what else is she even lying about?”“We can’t trust this girl. She is nothing but fucking trouble.”I was so fu

    As I lay on the bed struggling to breathe and feeling my life slipping from me, I decided I had to be my own knight in shining armor. The F.B.I. weren’t going to come for me and no one was going to save me from anything. The maid who held me down smiled when she felt my struggle start to weaken. She was a sadist and she made me realize I wouldn’t let anyone as mediocre as Veronika and some girl I didn’t know be the ones to end my life. I always thought Alfonso was the one who was going to kill me in the end. The day Carlos found and sold me and I changed my perspective. I thought Maxim was the one who would deliver the final bullet that would drain my life from me. I wouldn’t let Veronika take the cake. I bit the girl who was holding me and she let out a scream. I was weak but adrenaline rushed to my veins when I realized I had a chance of surviving. When the girl stumbled backwards, I grabbed my lamp and threw it at the full-length mirror. It shattered and glass flew everywhere.
