Don Nikolai Arrested
I had been in the hospital for three days and all those three days were pure and utter torture. I couldn’t lie down and not cry. Not a day went by without me having a panic attack. My mind replayed Nikolai leaving over and over again.Where was he and who had taken him?I felt helpless laying on a hospital bed. I should have trusted Lorenzo to look into his disappearance but with the time he spent at the hospital, I doubted he had time for that. Whenever I asked for an update, he told me there was none.I didn’t trust anyone. Those two; Viv and Lorenzo were yet to tell me what happened at the mansion. They always told me that I needed rest. That day, I woke up intending to find out.I was a sour woman and I was going to get whatever I wanted.Viv entered, breaking me out of my thoughts. She had a bag that was full of fruits and food. She always brought it with her when she came to visit because she knew how much I hated hospital food.“ How are you doing? “ She asked as she pulled a c
Don Nikolai Where is Viv?
I stayed quiet as I sat in the backseat of the police car as it drove to the police station. There was pain in my wrists because of the cuffs and I put my head down as I cried because I didn’t want them to see me crying.Where was Nikolai when I needed him the most?When the car came to a stop, I wiped my face on my shoulder before keeping my head up. I wasn’t going to falter because if I did, they were going to prey on my weakness and never let me go.A police officer pulled me out of the car by my arm, using a little too much force than required. I glared at him making him gentler with how he was treating me. He took me inside the station and placed me on one of the seats.I waited as he wrote some things on a register before pulling me up again and taking me to the interrogation room. I sat there with my hands in front of me at the table. It reminded me of the first time I had been arrested.For some sick reason, I laughed a little. Did these men really think that they were going t

“ Your baby is going to be okay, “ the nurse told me. I heaved out a sigh of relief because of what she had told me.My child was out of the woods. He must have been a fighter just like his father.“ What about the blood? “ I asked.She smiled at me and put her hand on my shoulder.“ That should not worry you. Remember that you received a blow to your stomach. You should be happy that you were able to block some blows to your stomach. “ She said and left.I had a handcuff to my wrist that was connected to the bed like I was a common criminal. If it were Nikolai, he would not have let me stay there for five minutes. I couldn’t help but think that the good deeds Viv was showing me were only a façade.Just then, the door opened and she came in with a horrified look on her face. Speak of the devil. She rushed to my side and started touching me to see where I was hurt. I couldn’t help but feel disgusted by her touch.She had left me to rot in that hell hole and I almost lost my child. Lord
Don Nikolai Intervention
It had been three weeks since I went to the penthouse and drowned in my own pit of self-despair. My routine was eating, sleeping, and repeat. I was stuck in my bed, wanting nothing more than the nightmare I was living to end.Every day like clockwork, I called Lorenzo, and every day like clockwork, he told me they were close to finding Nikolai. I convinced myself that he was getting closer when deep down I knew that he was telling me that to make me feel better.Hope was a fickle bitch and for the past few days, it was hitting me how true that statement was. My phone buzzed with a text and I furrowed my eyebrows wondering who that could be.When I saw who had texted, I saw that it was an unknown number. I read the text and saw that it was Corinna telling me that she was at the entrance of the hotel room and she was coming up with the paperwork.Through the haze of it all, I had forgotten that I was a CFO of a multi-billionaire company that needed running. I sent her a quick text askin

“ Why are you suddenly so quiet? “ Romano asked.He took a gulp of his whiskey and went to pour himself another one. He looked back at me and then smiled. It was a sarcastic smile because what he was telling me was too serious to smile about.I didn’t have the answer to his questions. Before I could react, he threw the wine glass to my head and I ducked. It was seconds away from hitting me square in the face. It shattered on the floor, causing a mess.I brought my eyes to him with shock written all over my face. How could he do that? It would have sent me back to the hospital.“ I expect an answer, Brianna, “ he said before grabbing another glass and pouring himself a drink.I stayed quiet because all that was happening was shocking enough to leave me speechless.“ Are you going to finish that?” He asked while pointing to my whiskey glass because I had taken a very tiny sip.“ I’m pregnant, Romano, “I explained even though I didn’t want to put it out there. That was not the way I had
Don Nikolai Taking back the throne
Romano walked me back to his car and I sat on the seat with a lot of things on my mind.“ Where am I going to start? “ I asked him.He rubbed my back soothingly which was something so out of character with him and gave me a hopeful look.“ As long as you have me, you will always know where to start, “ he said.He drove me back to my penthouse and I expected him to go back to Milan but he followed me back.“ Don’t you have a business to take care of, old man? “ I asked.He glared at me because he didn’t like being called old and I only smiled mischievously in answer. I loved teasing him a lot.“ I am not old and I am not leaving you here without backup or a plan, okay? “ He asked. I nodded my head and placed my hand in his.When the elevator doors opened ad I punched in the code, I saw men in my living room. There were guards everywhere and Esposito was sitting comfortably on my couch looking like the place belonged to him.Not to mention he had a whiskey in his hand. These men and my
Don Nikolai Bow down to the queen
I heard them arguing before I even got to the bottom of the stairs. They were not very discreet with their plans at all. Before I left, I heard Viv calling out to me to stop.“ Please, just listen, “ she begged and I stopped.Who could I be if I didn’t listen to her?“ What is it, Vivienne? “ I asked while turning. I crossed my arms against my chest.She reached me and placed her hands on my arms.“ Look, we were going to start today but we couldn’t until we had enough men. I am sorry we lied to you but it had to be done. “ She said, not looking the least bit remorseful.“ First, get your hands off me. Do I look like an unreasonable woman to you? “ I asked.She looked at me like she wanted to be anywhere else. Well, I wasn’t the one who told her to follow me, was I?“ No, “ she answered.“ That’s right, Vivienne. I am not unreasonable. You say you were setting up but you took two weeks. Do you think Nik can wait that long? No! Do you what he is going through? No! “She looked anywhere
Don Nikolai Nikolai
My head was buzzing and my ears were ringing. There was an undeniable pain in my right leg and stomach. I was beginning to think I was in purgatory for all the bad things that I had done. I tried unsuccessfully to pry my eyes open.Every time I did that, my head hurt like small pins were being dropped on my head. I let out a groan when I was finally able to open my eyes. I was surprised when I saw darkness everywhere.If it wasn’t for the fact that I was sure that I had opened my eyes, I would have been doubtful of the fact that they were open. I tried to walk and that was when I registered that my movement was restricted.There were shackles on both my arms, pulling them apart like I was on a cross. My feet, on the other hand, were shackled to the wall behind me but they were closer together than my arms.Where the fuck was I?I tried to remember the events of the past few days but my memory was foggy and my thoughts were all over the place. I wanted to get out of that place that had
