Gavril’s body parts decorated the floor—teeth, fingers, one of his ears, and one of his big toes.

His whimpers were weaker now as he dangled between consciousness and death. His head hung low, his suit was soaked in his blood, and his body was barely holding onto life.

Even now, I hadn’t gotten the satisfaction I needed. The rage inside me demanded more pieces of him, but he was closeto giving up the ghost, and death was a mercy—one he didn’t deserve.

Throwing him in a gutter and leaving him to die made more sense.

“What should we do with him, sir?” Dimitri asked.

I glared at the half-dead in front of me. “Dispose him,” I ordered. “He’ll be a waste as a prisoner.”

Dimitri nodded.

I rolled down my sleeves and threw on my suit jacket to hide the splatters of blood. Giselle would be shaken if she saw them, and after everything she’d been through, the last thing I wanted was to traumatize her further.

Drawing in an even breath, I turned toward the door where Giselle was meant to be but fr

  • Married Off To The Merciless Mafia King    Book 5: chapter 33

    GiselleThe ride back home was suffocating; that was the only word I could use to describe the odd silence and the tension hanging in the small space of Andrei’s Mercedes like a storm about to break.Andrei’s grip on the steering wheel was tight, his knuckles stark white against his tan skin. His jaw was locked, muscles twitching with suppressed anger.I kept my gaze fixed on the window, watching the darkened landscape blur past with my hands curled into fists on my lap.Tonight still felt like some sort of dream.Today, as a whole, felt like a nightmare I so badly wanted to wake up from. I’d gone from happily making breakfast for Andrei to hearing him talk about me as if I was some sort of tool; then, I was kidnapped and almost killed by some fat Romanian with a receding hairline.It seemed the god of luck wasn’t on my side today.Still, I was lucky he came to save me despite the anger he would’ve felt when he realized I was missing. I was pretty certain I’d be dead by now if he didn

    I’d expected more from him, and because of that, I’d been hurt more. Men like Andrei weren’t capable of love. I should’ve known that, but I thought it was different. I thoughtwewould be different.And I’d been fucking wrong.It hurt even more that he didn’t care to explain. He didn’t deny it either because he knew it was true.A part of me still wanted to believe that he cared for me beyond needing me to find the shipment, but I knew he didn’t, and I didn’t want to put myself through that pain again.He remained silent.For a moment, the only sound in the car was the hum of the tires against the pavement and my own unsteady breathing.“I’m sorry you heard that,” he finally said after a moment of silence. His voice was quieter but no less intense.My chest tightened, and a dull ache spread across my ribs.Sorry?That was all he could say?He wasn’t sorry for what he said or for manipulating me that way; all he was sorry about was that I’d heard him.“You’re such a jerk, Andrei. I should

    Giselle“You can’t force me to marry you,” Giselle snapped, her raven hair falling over her face in a disheveled manner.I tilted my head to look at her.My God….There was nothing I would rather look at first thing in the morning aside from the beautiful view in front of me.She wore a thin nightgown that showed off most of her cleavage, and her nipples strained against the useless fabric.My body twitched in response to how sexy she looked in it, my balls tingly with need.I remembered it all, how she came on my tongue, how she moaned my name as I fucked her that night. I needed to feel her again soon, or I’d lose my fucking mind.It had been two days since she had run away and been kidnapped, and I was happy to see some of her fiery spirit return.To be honest, I’d been quite worried when she didn’t protest the marriage like I was expecting her to.Giselle Rae wasn’t a pushover, and she certainly wasn’t the kind of girl who would give in to a marriage she didn’t want to begin with,

    “That’s as fair as it can get,solnishko. The choice is yours now.”She thought for a moment, her eyes wandering from the walls to the ceiling and then me. “Fine, I’ll test the dress orwhatever. I’ll marry you, too, but don’t think I’m doing any of this because I like you. I’m doing it for my father.”I loved the lies she told herself, how she’d managed to make herself believe the only reason she was agreeing to this was because of my shiny offer. We both knew the truth: that she wanted every bit of this as I did.I didn’t mind, though; if lying helped her cope with everything, then I was okay with it. “We have a deal then.”“Pervert!” she muttered as she turned and left the room.Now that I’d gotten her to consent to our marriage, there was only one thing left. I had to break the news to my cousins, and I already had a feeling Egor wouldn’t take a liking to it.He’d probably seen through my bullshit the day I told him she was nothing but a pawn.Egor was smart and hard to deceive. It

    “It is not a trap.” That I was very certain of. “Would it make a difference if I told you not to go ahead with the marriage?” he asked. “It wouldn’t,” I answered honestly. “She’s mine, and I won’t stop until I have her.” “And you’re willing to go against me for her?” “There will be no need for that if you don’t try to stop me.” Egor’s jaw tensed. His dark eyes locked onto mine and remained there, as if he was trying to see through my thoughts. The silence between us thickened, pressing against the walls of the VIP section, muffling the bass-heavy music thumping outside. “You’ve lost your fucking mind,” he finally said, his voice low but sharp. “This isn’t some playground romance, Andrei. You don’t get to throw away everything for a woman just because she makes your cock hard.” Anger rippled through me, but I forced myself to stay seated, to not rise to his provocation. Giselle wasn’t someone who merely made my cock hard. She was someone I cared about. Someone I was wi

    Andrei“Make sure to smile at the altar. We don’t want our guests to think I forced you into this marriage.”Giselle whipped around, glaring at me from where she sat on the vanity table, waiting for her makeup artist. If looks could kill, I’d be long gone by now.Her perfectly arched brow shot up, and she frowned. “Are you going to stand there and pretend you didn’t actually force me into this?”I played ignorant as I folded my arms and stepped toward her. It was our wedding day, and I’d almost died of a cardiac arrest today—twice, actually—just thinking of how beautiful she would look in her dress.Giselle Rae was going to be fully mine today.She was going to be my wife, the mother of my children, and not even the heavens would ever be able to come between us. I was going to make sure of that.“Did I?” I nodded to the sparkly diamond ring I’d given her for our engagement, which was only a week old. “You looked happy when I slid that into your finger.”Her cheeks turned red with a bl

    Absolutely nothing.Rows of white chairs lined the aisle, each adorned with soft, cascading blooms, their fragrance sweet in the gentle breeze. Birds chirped in the distance, their melodies mingling with the soft strains of a violin, playing a slow, haunting tune.Everything was perfect, but none of them outshined my wife-to-be.A possessive surge of desire and pride roared through me as I stretched out my hand.Her emerald eyes locked onto mine, her smile fading a little. She peered at my hand for a moment as if reconsidering, as if realizing there was no going back the moment we said our vows on the altar of roses.I could hear the whispers among our guests, who were mostly just members of the Bratva and their wives. I knew what they were all thinking. Some of them thought I was making a mistake; a few others guessed I was forcing Giselle into this, but their whispers didn’t matter.All that noise faded behind the scenes as I waited for her to take my hand.And she did.Her hand fel

    Before Giselle could react, I stepped forward, pulled her closer, and stole her lips in a passionate, sensual kiss, reveling in the thought that she was now mine.She broke our kiss, trying to pull away, but I held to myself.“You’re mine now, Giselle. Mine to protect, to love, and to torment,” I whispered into her ear. “Mine to fuck.”***The reception passed in a blur. I accepted congratulations I didn’t care for with champagne in one hand and the other hand around Giselle’s waist to mark my territory.She played her part well, just like I’d taught her the night I took her to Antonio’s party. She smiled when necessary and nodded at the right times, but I could feel the tension and exhaustion in her posture.When the reception party ended, I guided her inside, leading her up the staircase to the room—my room—which now belonged to the both of us.The moment the door clicked shut behind us, she turned to face me, her arms crossing over her chest.“I didn’t agree to share a room with yo

    I was grateful.Andrei’s face creased with worry. “Are you okay?”I drifted back to the presence and nodded. “I just thought of Dad. I mean, isn’t it funny how I was able to meet you because of the shipment he hid?”“Tell me about it. You think Peter had this all mapped out before he died?” Andrei asked with a playful grin. “That he wanted me to meet you?”I shrugged. “He was a genius. It’s not completely out of the box. He worked with you, so he must’ve known how great of a person you are.”Andrei chuckled. “Your father watched me murder men in cold blood a few times. There is no way he would have wanted a man like me for his daughter.”I looked him straight in the eyes and corrected him. “Every father wants a man who would love and protect their daughter. You’re all of those things, and I’m sure he would have approved.”Even if Mom hadn’t been a fan of it at first, she’d adjusted pretty well.Andrei took my hands and kissed the back of my palm. “And I promise to always love and prot

    GiselleSeven Months Later“It’s your birthday in less than an hour,” Mom said over the phone.For the first time since Dad died, she sounded happier, as if she’d finally gotten to that final stage of grief.Acceptance.The stage where even though the pain was still there, it just became easier to live with.I believed I’d also gotten to that stage.There were days when I missed Dad so much and wished he was still here, but those days were fleeting, and I found myself cherishing the memories we had when he was here.I’d shifted my focus to finding my own path in life and living in the moment. Andrei was the moment; because of him, I could live happily and smile freely again, something I never thought I would experience after Dad died.I stared blankly at the wall above me and sighed. “Yes, Mom. It’s my twenty-third birthday in an hour, and the only company I have is an empty house.”It was the first time I’d ever been home alone for a while now. Andrei made it a duty to always come ho

    “I think we need to celebrate.” She leaned in and whispered. “Let’s sneak away from here.”I took her hand in mine. “Come with me.”She squinted. “Where are we going?”“You’ll see.”I led her to the rooftop of the building, closing the door behind us to avoid any interruptions and burying the noise of the chaos below.The rooftop was quiet, and the city stretched out before us, a glittering expanse of lights and movement. The night breeze was cool, carrying with it the distant sounds of cars racing down the street.Giselle stood beside me, her hands covered in mine as she admired the full moon and the bed of stars in the sky.Our fingers grazed, and it felt like the entire world had been set ablaze, the heat licking through my veins and the air cracking with a jolt of tension.The weird feeling in my chest intensified, and my pulse raced. It was a reminder of what she meant to me—what I’d just discovered she meant to me.I watched her, something in my chest fluttering as I admired how

    AndreiThe air was thick with the aroma of burning cigars, the low murmur of laughter and conversation blending with the shuffle of cards and the clinking of crystal glasses.My fingers drummed idly against the felt-covered table, my gaze sweeping across my opponents.They were all seasoned members of the Bratva with hands that were scarred from bloodshed and dark eyes that threatened death.Antonio Morozov and Victor Volkov.We were all cut from the same cloak—all three of us—bred with cruelty, brutality, and bloodshed. Different in many ways yet similar in more than one.And at this table, every card we tossed was a matter of our pride. The joy that came with victory surpassed winning a war with a rival family.I’d always been a good player, only lost a game a couple of times. My skills were unbeatable, and everyone here knew it.But it was different tonight. Giselle’s presence made it different.She sat on the edge of a leather chair across the room, her back straight and hands fol

    I wrapped my arms around his neck, reveling in the heat seeping from his body and into mine as he carried me to our room.His throat bobbed as he swallowed hard, his body pressing against mine and enveloping me with warmth.We barely made it past the bedroom door when I shifted from the position in one fluid motion, wrapping my legs around his hips and tracing his lips with mine.His arm snaked around me, and one of his hands slid under my swimsuit, finding my bare breast and cupping it.I raked my fingers through his hair and kissed him. It was a hot, searing, primal kiss that evoked something deeper than lust from both of us. It was need, mixed with deep yearning.He deepened the kiss, dragging his thumb across my nipple and twisting it lightly.I moaned into his mouth, bucking when I felt his erection poke against my sex, and ground against him, desperate to ease the throbbing between my thighs.He slid a hand through my thong and cupped my sex, and then, fisting the thong, he ripp

    I swam toward him, resting my elbow on the edge just by his feet and tilting my head to look at him. “It’s called a two-piece swimsuit.”“Ah, I see.” He whipped his head around and glared at his guards, a silent signal for them to look away.I laughed. He hadn’t just grown more protective; he’d become even more possessive and jealous as well. It was cute to see. “You know they’ve been watching me swim every day for weeks now, right?”“Well, they’re not allowed to watch you swim anymore. No man is allowed to watch you swim beside me.”I huffed. He’d just saved me from having to discuss the bodyguard situation. “How was work today, husband?”“I had a couple of meetings with thePakhanand a couple of members of the Bratva. All I could think of while I was there was coming back home to you.” He placed a finger beneath my chin and leaned in. “I missed you.”“Me, too.” I squinted and grinned. “I think I missed you more.”He pretended to think for a moment. “I doubt it.”Something about the w

    GiselleIt’d been two months since the whole fiasco with the FBI and Tyfun-1. Luckily, the cops hadn’t found anything to implicate me with the drugs, and the news about it had become irrelevant.A lot of things had changed—like my relationship with Andrei.I’d started to truly enjoy his presence, with no fear or doubts attached, and I missed him in his absence—like a part of me had been torn away.He’d changed a lot, too, over the months.Although he was still that dominant, fearful, and brutal man others feared, he’d become softer with me. He smiled more now and didn’t have to pretend to be cold whenever we were together.To be honest, I didn’t think I could’ve pulled a better man than him on my own, even if I tried.It was the middle of summer, and the weather outside was scorching. Andrei wouldn’t be home until evening, and I’d grown tired of watching TV.I went to the pool outside, sliding off my robe and slipping into the water. I groaned as a blissful chill cascaded over me, was

    And there was no way in hell I was going home tonight without the damn camellias.***When I got home, Giselle was standing in the living room, arms crossed, waiting. Her hair was loose, falling in dark waves over her shoulders. Her lips parted slightly as her gaze dropped to the box in my hands.She held her chest and exhaled. She ran to me, pressing up on her toes to hug me.I snaked one arm around her waist, hugging her back. She smelled jasmine and vanilla tonight—delicious and sweet.“I was so worried, Andrei,” she whispered, hugging me tightly, as if I would vanish into thin air if she pulled away. “You told me you were coming home hours ago.”I pulled back first and pressed a kiss on the top of her head. “I was coming home until I saw something that looked just as beautiful as you.”She peered at the box again but completely ignored it. “Did you get into trouble? Was thePakhanmad at you?”I looked at her long and hard—the way her brows creased with worry and her emerald eyes da

    “I’ve seen how you men live. I’ll be damned before I let myself become that kind of a mess.”I nodded. I’d thought the same thing months ago, and here I was, risking it all for a woman I never thought I’d meet.She’d been freaking worried this morning, afraid of how this would turn out. I needed to go back home to her. I needed to see her face and watch her give that delightful smile when I broke the news to her.Rising to my feet, I smoothed out my suit and nodded to thePakhan. “I’ll be leaving now. I’ll give you an update if there’s any soon.”He nodded back. “Khorosho.”Dobryn was leaning on the white S.U.V. when I reached the parking lot. His face wrinkled with concern when he saw me. “How did it go, sir?”“Luckily, he wasn’t angry.” I climbed into the back seat, pulling out my phone to text Giselle that I was on my way home.The car roared beneath me, and soon, Dobryn reeled it out of the parking lot. “Where are we going now?” he asked, peering at me through the rearview mirror.
