ANA

I’m sitting on the floor, with my back to the wall where three other women are standing.

The one with the blank stare whispered something in a language I’ve never heard, but it sounded like a final prayer with her head looking upward.

God. It’s me. Ana again, Your least favorite child, seeing as you keep letting all the bad things happen to me over and over again.

If you’re listening, I’d really appreciate a break right about now.

I lift a hand and brush my fingers lightly over the bruises that feel swollen on my face.

And the massive bump on my head that feels like it’s the size of an egg.

When I regained my consciousness, the man with the gun was gone, and so was the body.

There’s blood on the floor, and I kept staring at it.

The door opens, and two armed men come in.

They gesture with huge machine guns for us to come.

Where are we going?

What's happening?

Shit.

“Let me go,” one of the women starts to cry.

“Por favor.”

My eyes dart between her and the men as I climb to my fe

    ANAThe assholes have left us here all day long.I walk to the door and turn the knob to have it open, but it’s locked.They can at least give us something to eat and drink. Another toilet break would be very welcome right about now, I need to stretch and move my legs.Not caring whether I’ll get in trouble, I bang a fist on the door. “Hey. Open the door.” Bang. Bang. Bang. “Anyone there? Open up please! I need to use to the toilet.”“You’re going to get in trouble with these men,” Paula whispers.When no one comes to open the door, I stop and frown at the piece of wood that’s keeping me imprisoned in this freezing room.An idea pops into my head, and I walk to the other side of the room before breaking out into a run and throwing my shoulder and side into the door, hoping I can break it open.The door doesn’t budge.I, on the on the other hand, bounce backward before landing flat on my ass, my shoulder and hip achin.A terrible pain passes through my hip bone.Well, that didn’t g

    ANAI have no idea where we are when the van comes to a stop.I’m cold and about to pee right where I’m sitting.The doors open, and the icy cold wind blows over our bodies.At this rate, we’re going to freeze and starve to death.Armed men push us out of the van, and I quickly look around, noticing we’re in a neighborhood. We’re ushered into a house that’s seen better days.Are we back in Miami?No can't be.All the boats and drives just to come back here? That’s fucked up.As soon as we’re in the house, I mutter, “I need to pee.” When the men ignore me, I shout, “I swear I’ll piss right here.”We’re shoved into a hallway and brought to a halt outside a doorway.“One at a time,” one of the assholes barks.I’m shoved into a restroom, but as I turn to shut the door, the asshole shakes his head and snaps, “Piss or hold it in.”“Jesus,” I mutter as I go to the toilet. With a fucking audience, I take off my panties and sit down. While I relieve my bladder, I keep glaring at the

    ROMAN Thank Christ.My woman is alive.Everything inside me stills as I stare at her terrified face, and rumpled hair.It sets in my head that she’s in underwear and barefoot.In the fucking cold.I take in a harsh deep breath as I keep staring at her, then all at once, every destructive and angry emotion I’ve felt since she was taken floods back.A Growl is torn from my chest as I shoot to my feet. Grabbing the chair, I throw it against the fucking wall.The other men come rushing one by one into the office.Ivan grabs my shoulder as I turn back to my system, and when my eyes land on the photo of Ana again.She's out in the fucking freezing cold wearing only underwear, the need to destroy everything comes over me.Nikolai runs in front of me before I can get to the system.“Breaking shit isn’t going to help,” he says. “Deep breaths.”“You have proof she’s alive,” Ivan adds.“Roman,” Sergei’s voice cuts through the air.I take in heavy breaths as the anger calms enough for me to t

    ANALying on the floor as I struggle to keep my eyes open.My head hurts so much.I’m cold.Through blurring vision, I see Paula crying. The other’s just stare at one spots, no life on their faces.I was so close to escaping.That might’ve been my only chance.I feel a needle pick my skin, and seconds later, my pain starts to fade.No. I’d rather take the pain.I blink and blink as the drugs run through my system. Time warps, and everything feels upside down. My mind starts wobbling until it feels like I’m floating.When it looks like the beds are moving across the floor before jerking back into position, I frown because it’s weird.Something crawls over me, and I try to rub it off, but moving is difficult as if I’m restrained.I’m tied up again. No!I struggle, but I can’t free myself, and more chains are on me.I scream and fight the restraints, then suddenly, the restraints are gone, and Dad’s sitting in front of me, brushing his hand over my hair.“It’s easier when you just g

    ANAI stare down, trying to look for the bullet wound, but I don’t see any. I hear a slight groan from behind me, I look over my shoulder and I see a man lying down in the middle of the hallway.The woman with the expressionless gaze, standing in the doorway of the bedroom we were placed.Jesus. Was she with that man?I don’t have time to think about it because I’m grabbed by my shoulders and squashed against a warm, solid chest.“Fuck,” Roman whispers. “Christ, Ana.” He draws his face into my hair, rubbing his jaw over the little bump on my head.When I flinch and yank away from the pain, his hands move back to my shoulders, and he leans down so he can see my face.His eyes flick all over my face while his own turns darker with anger.His tone is harsh as he asks, “Are you okay?”Am I?“They drugged me,” I complain, very upset about it. “I think four times.”“Let’s go!” Sasha snaps.Roman slips his arms beneath me, and a second later, I’m lifted into the air and carried bridal

    ROMAN “It’s all I had. I buried the metal rod in his eye,” she mumbles, her fingers twisting in the fabric of the covers.“She can be your bodyguard after that, Roman,” the fucker says. “Continue, Ana.”“I never heard any names. We were kept on the boat for a day before being moved to the house.”“Did you see tattoos?” Sergei shoots another question her way.She thinks for a moment, then answers, “They wore warm clothes, but one of the men had a leaf on his neck with an V.”Sergei rises to his feet and surprises the fuck out of me when he comes to give Ana’s shoulder a squeeze.“You did good, Ana. Get some rest.” Turning his attention to me, he says, “I’ll give you a day to be with her then you have to get to work. I want them found.”“Got it,” I reply and watch as he leaves the room.“What does the V represent?” Eden asks, her tone soft.“The drug dealers who took you work for Vladamir,” I explain.She nods, her eyes looking shocked spearing on my chest. Her features tighten,

His other hand grabs my hip, and he hammers hard into me.“Ah,” is the only sound I can make as he sets fire to my pussy with his cock.My body keeps tensing more and more, pleasure threatening to overwhelm me at any moment. It keeps building and building and fucking building until I let out a desperate cry.Roman’s thumb brushes lightly over my clit, and it’s all it takes to make me my body feels tight like it's going to explode like a bomb.The orgasm is so intense I can’t breathe and lose complete control of my

    She stares at me for a long while before looking at her bank balance again.I wait patiently until she murmurs,“What do I do with so much money?”“Whatever you want, give it to charity.” Pulling the phone out of her hold, I set it down on the table beside the couch before focusing all my attention on Ana again.“You can invest some.”“Yes. I have to get it out of my account before someone steals it.”“No one will steal it.”“You sure?”“Yes. Besides, if someone is dumb enough to steal from you, I’ll track the stupid fucker down and get it back before killing him.”Her tongue comes out to wet her lips while her eyes search mine, then she asks,“Have you killed a lot, huh?”Lifting my hand, I brush a couple of her hair strands behind her ear.“Do you really want to know, what goes on?” I retort before she finishes her question.“The Bravta is this whole other side of you that I really don’t know about.”“As I’ve said before, I mostly take care of the hacking and tracking part of thin

    “I’m going to my annex,” Dolores says. “Callie, come help me move some things around the kitchen?”“ Must I ?,” she replies obviously tuned in to the drama between me and Roman.“Come with me so they can have some privacy,” she snaps at her, which has her shooting up from the couch.“Yes, ma’am.”Ana and I watch as they leave the penthouse, then I turn my attention back to my woman.“Please accept the gifts.”She glances at everything on the coffee table, then says, “Okay, but you don’t have to buy me stuff.”“I do. It makes me feel good knowing I’m taking care of you. Let me spoil my wife when and however I want.”Wrapping her arms around my neck, she finally gives up. “Okay.”Excited, I let go of her and pick up the phone. “Want me to set it up for you?”Ana lets out a chuckle as she sits down on the couch. “Please.”I switch the device on, and it takes a few minutes for me to sign Ana into all her apps. When I’m done, I hand it to her.“Thank you,” she whispers as she looks

When the words sink in, I start to laugh, shaking my head.“It’s way too soon.”“Not for me.”Realizing he’s serious, I stare at him. “Jesus, Roman. We’ve only got married few months ago. Marriage is a serious commitment.”“So?” I give him an incredulous look.With a dead serious expression, he mutters, “It doesn’t matter whether we’re were dating or married because I’m never letting you go, and we have to start trying for kids.”“We can talk about kids at a much later stage,” I say hastily Wiping a hand over my forehead, I mumble, “Now I’ve forgotten what we were talking about.”“You said you’re scared of making changes and talked shit about us divorcing, then I brought up kids, and you freaked out,” he reminds me.“Right.” I let out a sigh, and feeling tired from the intense conversation, I lie downRoman crawls over me and bracing his hands on either side of my head, he locks eyes with me.“You need security, and I want to g

Because I know she trying to play strong”I shake my head.“I’m not sure. She went through a lot," I tell her keeping it brief to ease her worries"so it will take a while for her to heal and get back to her usual self.”“Did she tell you what happened after they took her?”I nod.“is it really bad?” she asks, looking concerned.Yeah, bad shit.Getting up from my chair, I say, “I’ll let her tell you when she’s ready.

Horror fills over her face, making her look pale as fuck.“It’s just a dream,only a dream.” I say as I hold her close.She shakes her head, her breaths not calming down, and breathing fast.Her fingers grip the sweater I’m wearing tightly, her body trembling so much.“You’re safe.” I begin to rock her, moving back and forth slowly,hoping it will help calm down her ne
