"Ella?" Kamilla turned to see who had called her, and she mentally scoffs as she recognizes who it was."I know it is you," the girl's smile spread as she confirmed it was Kamilla."How are you? She took the seat across from her without being invited."I am great, Celine," Kamilla said dryly. She is not in the mood for small talk, especially with Celine Donlov.After work, she wanted to spend some time by herself. Unlike other days, she left work early and declined to eat dinner with her team, as they typically do. However, meeting her ex-friend, Celine, made her reconsider her plans. "Ivan already works for Petrov Petroleum. "My dad made a referral for him," Celine said as she settled into her seat.Despite her disinterest in the whereabouts of Ivan, she was glad he made it to Petrov Petroleum. It was their dream to work for one of the Petrov enterprises while still in university. "I also work at the Petrov Resort and Casino," Celine continued, despite receiving no answer from he
"I think we need to get Ella out of here, Celine," Ivan murmured frantically. But he received a severe roll of the eyes from her. "Do you still have feelings for her?" Celine lashed out in rage. Ivan has no response to her. He does not want to get into trouble with Celine. Unlike Kamilla, Celine is quite a brat who throws tantrums whenever she is displeased.Under the watchful eyes of everyone inside the cafe, Kamilla took a seat next to Samuel Petrov.Breaths were held as they dreadfully gaze from afar. They are all expecting the worst from the girl's bravado. Only Celine seemed excited, whilst Ivan became concerned for Kamilla. Nobody has ever messed with a Petrov, even as a joke. More so, three terrifying Petrov men in one location. Ivan swallowed uncomfortably, as did the rest, anticipating Kamilla to be kicked out. While everyone was worried about her, Kamilla settled into her seat and relaxed. Three sets of inquiring eyes shift to her, but she keeps her gaze fixed on her c
Following her declaration, Kamilla turned aside and fled, much to Carl and Denver's amusement. Samuel turns to his two cousins with a deathly cold countenance, who swiftly stifle their laughter by feigning a cough. "Wait till it is your turn. The Petrov curse will haunt you as well." Samuel narrowed his eyes as the two men managed to get serious. "That's not a nice joke, Samuel" Carl grumbled softly as he rose to leave. Since Kamilla had left, they have no reason to stay. "You could feel the curse, Carl," Samuel smirked. "Do not remind me," Carl said coldly, shaking his head. Unconcerned, the three of them made their way to the door amid the eerie silence and everyone's watchful gaze. Before they could even go outside, several black cars with security guards were already waiting. "Good luck" Carl and Denver patted Samuel's shoulder. "Fuck you," Samuel grimly replied before they parted ways. They each got into their own vehicle. A fleet of black vehicles soon exited downtown
"You pissed a hellcat?" Denver chuckled as he noticed Samuel at the entryway."A possessive hellcat" Samuel shake his head while touching his tender neck.As expected, he is covered in purple and crimson kiss marks. Unfortunately, it is in areas that his business suit cannot conceal. Not even his jaw was spared. "You got a fiesty one. Bolder than Lia and crazier than Abby" Denver sounded sympathetic rather than mocking."Yes, crazier than Abby. Kamilla will be the death of me. She is full of energy, I am not sure I could keep up" shaking his head, he roughly take a deep breath."She is young and youngsters these days are more adventurous. Young bloods are dauntless and curious. Don't forget their temper too" Denver muttered while looking straight ahead. "Lia is here?" He squinted his eyes as he looked at the figure in the distance. His glance shifted to check on the security personnel surrounding the place. "They are her security," Denver continued after he was certain. "Yeah, sh
Kamilla stared at Doctor Sabrina's furious eyes but she remained unfazed.Those who saw how the doctor grabbed Kamilla's arm were disquieted. Kyriz and Michael, about to enter the elevator, came to a halt. The two guys quickly veered in the direction where Kamilla was stuck. They wanted to aid her, but they came to a halt after only a few steps, hesitant to approach. "What are you doing, Doctor?" Kamilla inquired calmly, her gaze shifting to the hand clutching her arm."Putting you in your place, newbie" Sabrina's fingers dig tight on her arm but she shows nothing of the pain she feels."Unhand me, Doctor." she says softly, looking up to meet her gaze."Not before I teach you proper manners. How dare you to snatch the Petrov's attention, especially Mr. Samuel Petrov. You are nothing in comparison to Director Lee and myself, Miss Laskin. You are new here, thus you should know where to put yourself. Do not even think about stealing Sir Samuel's favor. I will not hesitate to break your
"Doctor Lia wanted to speak with you," Jean said, patting her shoulder to get her attention. With the lobby delay, Kamilla hurried to the laboratory to begin her day. It was mid-morning, and she was already working with her samples. "In her office," Jean said as she turned to face her. "Thank you, Jean" she smiled at her before continuing what she was doing. She is almost done, but she needs to finish her experiment before leaving. She soon stood up and prepared to meet with Doctor Lia in her office. "Doctor Lia," she called softly, noticing the doctor was focused with the document she was reading at her desk. "Kamilla," Lia said with a smile on her lips as she looked up and saw her at the door. "Come, have a seat," she said, gesturing to the chair across from her, which Kamilla immediately took. "You mentioned earlier in the lobby that you needed to talk to me about serious matters," Lia gave her full attention to Kamilla, who kindly smiled back. "Yes, Doctor Lia
Kamilla had not warmed her seat after her return from Doctor Lia's office when the latter sent her on an errand.To bring a file to the office of Petrov Pharmaceuticals' Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Samuel Petrov.Although doing errands even for the big bosses is beyond her scope of duty, she did not question. Doctor Lia's expression before leaving suggests that this is more than just a simple errand. "Good day, Miss Kamilla" the two security personnel stationed outside of Samuel's office mumbled a polite greeting with a slight bow.If other employees noticed how she was treated by the strict Petrov security team, they could only wonder.Clutching the folder close to her chest, she walked inside the massive room. As expected, Samuel is behind his desk, engaged in the heaps of documents in front of him."Doctor Lia sent you something" since he is alone, she do away their usual formality as she walk closer to hand him the folder.Samuel looked up from the document he was reading and ex
"Babe...please, no" He holds Kamilla's hand with what little self-control he has left."I want to hold you," she murmured, unable to remove her hands from his hard grip."Not here, please. I can not contain myself if you touch me," he gasped, nuzzling his lips against hers. Despite his efforts to maintain control, he can not stop himself from moving on top of her. He is rubbing himself against her, enjoying the sensation comparable to the primitive dance his body is so used to. However, this time it was unbelievably intense since he had the woman he cares about beneath him. "I will make it up to you at home," he says, laying little bites on her lips. She closes her eyes, reveling in his soft kisses and languid movement above her. "Please, let me hold you. Just outside your pants. "I want to feel you," she bit his lips and struggled to draw her hands away."Urgh...shit..." his breath hitched when she got the chance to hold the huge bulge between them. Her hands began to stroke him
All eyes turned to the menacing figure striding ahead of Petrov Petroleum's senior associates. COO Samuel Petrov.A monthly meeting with the CEO will take place, and it is the most dreaded day for the company's senior executives. Aside from CEO Alek Vasili Wright, COO Samuel Petrov and other Petrov men constantly imbued dread in the employees present at the meeting.Vasili and Samuel coincidentally arrived, following each other. Vasili had just walked in the door when Samuel arrived a few minutes later.Samuel Petrov's arrival caused quite a stir, drawing the CEO's attention towards him. "Winter received the stickers I sent her. I can tell she created quite a masterpiece" contrary to his serious demeanor earlier, Vasili beamed with joy seeing Samuel at the door."Well, you told her she could do anything about it," Samuel chuckled, pointing to his thousand-dollar business outfit.All the guests inside the conference room silently watched the vibrant interplay between the two cousins.
"We cannot interfere with their childhood just because they are unique. We cannot cage them all their lives, Baby" Kamilla seriously muttered while watching the triplets play together.They are already a year old, and no one would believe they are preterm babies. The triplets grew up normally and even exceeded the milestones predicted for their age.They are currently enjoying their tiny feet as they wander about their lavish playroom. "Beyyy...bi" Samuel and Kamilla exchanged startled looks when Phoenix mimicked their mother's words while pointing at their father.They were taken aback by the triplets' keenness, as they had been by earlier milestones they had witnessed from them.At twelve months, they began to stand and walk a few steps with assistance. Just a month later, they are strolling around their playroom on their own. "What is it, Fyn?" Kamilla tenderly asked her son, who is walking towards them."Beyyy...bi..." he pointed at their father and lay his head on Samuel's la
"Ready to go home?" Samuel asked, his lips nestled against Kamilla's temple."After six months, we can finally bring home our little fighters. So, yes, I am so ready to go home, Baby," she tearfully smiled, cradling their princess while Samuel carried their two boys.The triplets slumber peacefully in their arms, unconcerned by the bustle around them. She glanced at their three bundles of joy and could not help but smile, teary but joyful. "They appeared to have grown bigger. They looked a lot better without the tubes and medical equipment attached to them," she whispered, wiping away her tears."Yes, my love. They are ready for the world" Samuel helped her dry her cheeks.They were finally able to go home after six months in the facility. The triplets' health is already stable and have passed all of their tests, so the team approved their release. However, due to their prematurity, there are still stringent limitations. An inhouse medical team will assist them in taking care of th
"Babe..." Samuel's voice was muffled as he snuggled against Kamilla's neck. "I will only hold," she insists, her hand already sliding into his boxer.It had been a couple of weeks since her cesarian operation, and she could move freely without concern for her incision."Temptress...Urgh..." he bit her neck, making her giggle. "It's hard" she beamed with joy."It's early morning, Babe, of course it's hard." Though tortured, he chuckled at his wife's antics.Every morning, she would slip her hand inside his boxers and play with his morning wood. Her antics caused him to jerk since he cannot make love with her until she is fully healed. "Bigger than the hungarian sausage," she said with a naughty smile. "You are so huge, Baby. I can't believe this fits me" she mumbled softly, her hand is starting to stroke him to a rhythm he is so familiar with. Also the tightness and warmth akin to her hand wrapped around his shaft, which he sorely missed. "Arghh..." he responded with a deep grow
"But...? What is the but, Lia?" Samuel repeated, and tears began to obscure his vision.He has been trained to see all sides of situations and he consistently demands it regardless of its outcome. Their family waited in trepidation, afraid to even move. Every passing second is torture to everyone's sanity.Lia wiped her tears away and took a quick breath to alleviate the uncomfortable lump in her throat. "Dr. Rene Rechner modified the patented medicine used to wake up Grandmother Andrea." Lia earnestly explained, her eyes fixed at Samuel.At the mention of the drug developed by Dr. Rechner piqued everyone's interest, most particularly Samuel."Two of the triplets shared the same placenta and the other one has her own" Lia gently smiled."My princess got separated from her brothers" Samuel softly mumbled."Yes, and we almost lost her" Lia bitterly whispered, letting out a deep breath. "It was a nightmare. Reviving a fetus smaller than my knuckles was a scene I would rather forget. T
"It is taking so long," Samuel heaved a sigh and muttered, burying his face in his palm.The grueling wait is wreaking havoc on his sanity. It has been four hours and there is no indication of anyone leaving the operation room. "They have to make sure Kamilla and the babies are all right, Sam," Lexie said, rubbing his back to reassure him. Dinara is on the other side of him, doing the same to her son. "We shall keep praying for all of them, Sam. May all of the medical team be shone with divine wisdom that only the heavens could bestow. May Kamilla and the three babies be given the strength to endure" Lexie tenderly whispered with closed eyes. Before Lia, Dr. Rechner, and Abby took Kamilla to the surgery room, the entire family had arrived, including the Wrights and the Steels.Vasili and the other Petrov men arrived three hours later. But they made sure to check in with the others on the ongoing procedure since it started. "They are not done yet?" Vasili asked his brothers the ins
Kamilla had extensive monitoring to ensure she was ready for a cesarean section. Her blood pressure, however, has proven to be the most difficult obstacle. "Sam, go lay down next to Kamilla and sleep. Something is upsetting her, causing her blood pressure to fluctuate. I believe you are the one causing her distress," Lia mumbled sympathetically as she approached Samuel."What exactly do you mean, me?" Samuel was perplexed as he pointed to himself."Kamilla is exhibiting symptoms of stress. She may be lethargic but she is conscious, Sam. She knows exactly what is going on around her" Lia patiently explained, staring straight into his eyes."She knows when you are not eating or sleeping. She could sense your distress and guilt. She knows when you are drowning in work and not taking care of yourself the way you used to." Lia bitterly smiled, seeing his perplexity."She is aware of everything, yet she has no control over it. She cannot take care of you while fighting to survive and beari
"How are you, Babe?" Samuel approached the bed and leaned in to kiss the peacefully sleeping figure on it.He carefully took a seat next to her and hovered above her, his elbows propped up to support his weight. He longingly stares at her beautiful face, seemingly memorizing every detail of it. He received no warm response, as he usually does, but he continued to gently kiss her pale face."I finished some important meetings earlier and started handing over some of my tasks to Denver," he smiled as he planted a kiss on her slightly parted lips. "Starting tomorrow, I will be working from home. I will not leave unless absolutely essential, Babe. We will be together all day," he inhaled deeply with closed eyes, immersing his fatigued senses with her soothing natural scent.He just finished showering alone. It was extremely lonely going about their daily routine without her, but he will persevere. He will wait for her.Yesterday was a mix of joy and doom for him. He found Kamilla had b
"Good day, Madame Kamilla," staff greeted as she make way to the private elevator with her security. "Good day," she remarked with a courteous smile and a kind nod to everyone. Her presence inside Petrov Petroleum's main office has become more frequent in recent days. It had been four months since her wedding, and she was now undergoing rigorous training under all Petrov senior scientists, as Doctor Lia had planned for her. They are preparing her as future chief scientist at the facility. She was doing well in her training, except for her odd yearning to see and smell Samuel every now and then. She was trying to concentrate on her work, but she couldn't resist the impulse to meet with Samuel. So despite the hassle of traveling to the main office from her location, she would make the effort to visit him. However, unlike most days, she felt a little lethargic. She woke up fine earlier. However, when she arrived at the facility, she felt an unusual tightness in her gut. She tried
