THE LIES THAT BIND Chapter 26
Ana’s POV.“Dad, don’t bother yourself, I’ll be alright,” I sounded so childish on the phone as I spoke to my dad that morning. He felt so bothered and decided to speak to me immediately I woke up from sleep. “Daughter, you’ll have to be very careful, i'm quite aware the marriage has an essence, but at the same time, you’ll have to make it look as real as possible. The alliance shouldn’t be what it’s going to be centered on and as you know, the contract should span for at least a year before you can think of filing a divorce against him, maybe you could even grow to love him…”“Dad, that’s not happening, he isn’t the kind of person I’ll end up loving, Dad you’ve got to see the way he parades himself like a god in this premises, honestly I don’t like him that much, I’m not saying I hate him though, the love isn’t there, we’ll just have to act and play our roles as we’ve already agreed.” “Listen to me little princess, you’ve got to understand that I’m always watching after you, you’re

Massimo’s POV. I never thought He’ll be that fast. It happened like a dream to me and I felt maybe he would demand a ransom for Marcello but he didn’t.I grew so cold, staring at the phone and watching my man being butchered part by part like a meat to be sold in the market. Nothing broke me more than acknowledging the fact that he sent it to my sister first, maybe he knew it would break her so much because she was closer to Marcello than any of the men around here. I collected the phone from her and stared directly at Viktor. I observed my hands were shaking, slightly though, while I stared. Ana at this time held Isa while she cried bitterly. I breathed heavily and smiled at him. “You actually meant it, Viktor,” I said. From the phone Viktor held a knife and flapped it on the table beside him and sat. “Well, well, well. You think it’s all a joke right?! I told you I was going to deliver a present to you in a couple of hours and…” “Viktor, you didn’t specify the time when we talk

Massimo’s POV. I was so elated after such an encounter. It’s been a while since I had such pleasurable sex. I held her on me while she laid on my chest and picked the hairs there. She looked so relaxed and I hoped she was now settled with the uncommon hatred she had for me right from the very day I stepped foot in Russia. “Massimo,” She called and turned to me. Her eyes were so beautiful and I could feel the connection between us right away. It wasn’t the old me, I felt so relaxed and changed. “Yes,” I replied, smiling back. “Don’t you think maybe we should hang out together?” “What? Hang out? Ana, you just got rescued from the hands of some deadly kidnappers and I wouldn't want you to be taken again, maybe they could be planning something more dangerous.” I replied, my voice strong and affirmative. I was so surprised she actually talked about something like that. She would be in danger and maybe Viktor may have her butchered, just like he just did to Marcello. “Come on, you’re

Masimo’s POV“Come on Rome, we’re already late, you know the governor doesn’t like us to keep him waiting,” I carried the bag containing my documents as I called on Romeo who still had a lump of meat in his mouth. Vanessa prepared the chicken source for me and right then, walked up to me. Her eyes were glued to mine, her both hands folded while tilting her head, slightly. “Massimo, you said you were going to speak to Isabel about the new phone, and yet you haven’t even done anything about it.” She gazed at me intently, her eyes narrowing slightly. “Come on Vanessa, you and I know Isabel is capable of giving herself a better phone and in a hundred-fold, why would she keep on depending on me for this? I told her the other day that I’ll get back to her, but I came home late, I forgot about it, and you know, Marcello’s death hit me so hard.” My eyes flashed with defensiveness. I crossed my arms and stared back as she lashed at me. “Brother, she’s just 20 years old and you know it, you

Massimo’s POV. “I warned you about this, boss, and that was exactly what I felt, I knew he was going to ask for something in return, now see…” Rome said, as he accompanied me back to the vehicle. The meeting with the governor was such an intense one. I wasn’t ready to dwell on It. This was someone whom I thought would have my back because I was among the people who had him installed into that seat even though he wasn’t aware of it. “Rome, don’t worry, I’ll handle it my way,” I replied as I entered the vehicle and sat. My countenance was down and I felt like driving back home to have some sleep already because the meeting didn’t go as planned. “Boss, you heard what he said, he is going to make sure he gets you down if you don’t do as he says and trust me, if you don’t, you’ll be a long lasting enemy to him, we should have involved Mr. Volkov, at least he already has an alliance with us through his daughter, your wife!” “Rome, just keep your mouth shut and let’s head back home, we h

Massimo’s POV. I wished I didn’t go over to the governors place. But the truth was, he had the power and forces to pull me down in all ramifications. I saw no sense in his request though, asking me for a third of my company and also handing my sister, Vanessa, in marriage to him. It was a slap to my face and I saw that as being dehumanizing. I sat in the vehicle as Rome drove into the premises. All that clustered in my head was the meeting’s outcome and also, the fact that Vanessa would yell so hard after hearing such. I exhaled and rolled my lips in disappointment as I held the steering while Rome calmed me down. “Aren’t you going to forgive yourself and let’s head into that building, all we need to do is have a strategic plan with Mr. Volkov, and see where it leads to from there.” He replied as he opened the vehicle and walked down before his mobile phone rang. I heard him sound so curious on the call and from all I know about Rome, it’s either someone was dead, or someone was ab

Massimo’s POV. I had my hands on my scabbard as I walked out of the Vehicle while Romeo had his M16 in his long coat. I had my eyes searching for any signs of Viktor as we both made our way right to the top floor in the Mall. I felt uncomfortable because this wasn’t supposed to be as urgent as it is now, to deal with someone as ruthless as Viktor. I walked down the path leading to the lift while I observed. “Boss, are you sure Thomas saw Viktor or he just tried to act so…” “Listen up, Rome, I know what you’re trying to do right now, you don’t have to underestimate the words of a servant, they’re so powerful and trust me, if actually we get hold of Viktor in this man, I’ll have that attributed to him, it’s his intel which got us here,” I replied, my hands were now released from the scabbard while I acted so free and made sure no one suspects the both of us were with a gun. “Hmm, I just hope we’re at the right place and at the right time, Boss,” He replied as he narrowed his eyes an

Massimo’s POV. It was such a day of disappointment for me. First it was the Governor, Baize, and now it’s the fool who butchered my steward and he’s nowhere to be found. Rome shot sporadically for a few seconds before I asked him to hold fire, else he may hit an innocent civilian and maybe put us into more trouble. We both headed to a secure location at the center of the city. It was already 8:45 PM That day. I felt so bad about the outcome of the events we carried out and needed to grab some drinks, Just Rome and I alone. He stared at the drink for a couple of minutes and then looked away. I knew for a fact that he wasn’t happy, because he told me earlier on about the man and the child and almost had them before I intervened. Pretending to scroll through his phone was a norm and I understood. I just had to calm his nerves, maybe with a little joke or something. “Ah-ah, there you go, thanks so much,” I smiled at the beautiful dark-skinned waitress at the eatery who brought in the t

Massimo’s POV. I turned her and thrusted deep into her Vagina as I held her ass on the bed. I felt the stand vibrate as I thrusted back and felt my heart beat as I growled and heard her moan in pleasure, while we had one of the most intense sex encounters since we got married. Her ass felt so soft as I felt my flesh collided in claps while she bent in a doggy position. *****“I don’t think you’d have to keep on screaming ‘daddy’ all the time. You don’t have to make this look like we’re going to have a banter even while we’re in our own house.” I said, as I laid on the bed while she rested her body on mine. We were both naked and under the duvet as I smiled and tickled her hair which made her laugh. “Haa, I didn’t scream ‘daddy’ continuously, I just had to say that twice or thrice,” she replied. Chuckling and holding me so tight this time. Her breast which was glued to my chest was already making me feel horny and getting ready for the second round. But for the meantime, we just nee

Ana’s POV I felt so devastated after the encounter with Vanesa. I wondered why she would just turn out to hate me after everything I’ve done to make sure she didn’t. Her response towards me was very rude and harsh and I could tell the hate which was building in her would be more than I would ever imagine, but I had to try as much as possible to make sure I maintained my stand as the daughter of the Russian Pakhan and stay committed and devoted to this course. I was seated at the dining room and scrolled on my phone, before I saw a call which came in from my elder sister, Katerina, who was in Spain. It’s been ages since I last heard from her. I smiled for a while before standing on my feet and to see if someone came from the other side of the living room. It had to be a private call and I needed to express myself to the fullest. I beamed my face with a smile as I held the phone. “Sister…” She called and waited for my response. I was so delighted by her voice alone and the drama she

Massimo’s POV. I never expected to see him at the premises; Nikolei Volkov. I just heard the shout from Ana down stairs as she rushed and hugged her brother who came to visit. I tried everything humanly possible to make sure that I avoided this man for at least a couple of months after his sister’s kidnap, but in this case it was impossible. I couldn’t, he was family and there was nothing I could do. I just had to calm my nerves and be down in a couple of minutes, maybe seconds to welcome him and see what he was up to. I tightened my belt on my trousers and stared at my reflection on the mirror. It was going to be one of the most complicated weeks of my life because I had to be in a gathering with the two most awkward people in my life so far. The Governor of the state, and Muller’s men, but now my in-law was now involved. I was on a brown long sleeve and also had my brown trousers with a touch of black stripe to match. I was so used to fashion and most times, most people refer to

Ana’s POV. It’s been a while since I last walked down the open fields and I felt maybe that was going to be the perfect day for this. I gave out a gigantic yawn and turned to the other side of the bed while trying to adjust the ray of light which flashed into my eyes. I shook my head and walked down to the bathroom which was just a few meters to the right. my hands felt a bit heavy as I held the handle of the door and tried to walk in a bid to wash my face. I could feel my eyes close slowly because I still felt dizzy. My world felt like it was in a paused state.I stood, facing the mirror as I watched my pale face. “why the hell do I look like this?” I muttered and kept a disgusting look as I rubbed and turned on the tap. The whole scenario was turning into a dream because I just heard my name from the other side of the door. “Was that my name? who is calling me at such an early hour of the day.” I said, as I stood and listened for a while again. It sounded like Isabel. “Maybe she w

Massimo’s POV. He was trying to hold a steady gaze at me while I stood. My eyes were locked in as I realized he strolled down to the vehicle and then, I turned to give Jonah a signal. I casted a Wink at him right away to ready the men. Maybe there was going to be a short scene right away. Sheriff A.M Adams walked down to be with one of the parcels which had the cocaine in it. I smiled at it immediately and nodded slowly with my eyes flashing at Rome who was already trying to bring out his gun from his scabbard before I signaled with my hands. “And I want to believe you have an explanation for what is going on here, what do you have to say about this Mr. Massimo?” He asked, lifting the stock before me. There was absolutely no way I was going to have that denied at the moment, which was why I had a plan B before coming. I rubbed my hands and chuckled, playfully as I walked closer to him. He wasn’t trying to keep a steady gaze at me so had to monitor the environment since my men were

Massimo’s POV. I was so happy to see she was now a full member of the Cosa Nostra after such a wait. My heart pounded as she walked down to me on her white robe. She looked absolutely stunning and from all indications, there was something spectacular inside of her she needed to let out to me. Maybe I’ll have to stay calm and wait. Her eyes were glaring and it glued to mine while she sat down beside me. The rest of the Cosa Nostra were leaving since the induction ceremony was over. I could feel the tension in the air as she stared at me directly and beamed her face with a smile. “How are you feeling?” I asked, my eyes searching hers as she shook her head and exhaled, before turning to the other side of the hall where Isabel and Vanessa were having a conversation. “I don’t think you’re the one who’s supposed to asking that question, I don’t think it’s going to be right if we just turn a deaf ear to that, maybe you’ll have to tell me what’s going on with you instead,” she replied, dr
THE LIES THAT BIND Chapter 51
Ana’s POV. That was never what I wanted to discuss with him-About the Cosa Nostra. I needed to expose the secrets of Vanessa, who’s been having sex with Enzo, her cousin. I sat on my fancy chair and stared at my reflection in the mirror while Isabel dressed me up for the Long awaited Induction into the Cosa Nostra. I was so nervous and felt my heart beat increase as Isabel spoke. She tried to remind me of the activities to be carried out in the Induction but to her greatest surprise I wasn’t paying attention. “…and after that you’ll have to make sure that you…” she paused. “Ana? Ana!” She raised her voice and right then I shivered and got back to my senses. I was so surprised I didn’t even listen or get a single thing from what she said all along. All that filled my head was exposing the secrets of her sister to Massimo and maybe trying to teach her a lesson. I had no clue that Enzo and Massimo had settled in their dispute, else, he'd be the only one affected here. I had nothing ag

Massimo’s POV. I sat at the balcony and imagined the serenity of the boulevard, with no enemy on my path. I held the cigarette on my left and had a glass of whiskey on my right. I felt the size of the red hat on my head as I nodded to the gentle breeze of the evening while I had my gaze at the manservants and maidens of the premises as they walked to and fro, performing their obligation. I was so intrigued at the nature of the calmness of our home. It seemed everyone was lost, except the few maidens who I spotted below. I felt a vibration in my pocket and that was from my phone. I kept the glass of whiskey on the railing which had a flat surface and brought it out to take a look. My eyes flashed at the first notification which came from my right hand man; Romeo. ‘Where are you, boss?’ I beamed my face with a smile as I texted back. ‘The balcony, eastern wing, second floor,’ The message was sent as soon as possible and I nodded to the ‘bing-bing sound which came off the phone,’ W
THE LIES THAT BIND Chapter 49
Massimo’s POV.The room was so quiet. I sat still and tried to see if I’ll be able to take an online course on Amazon before the door opened. I turned immediately and beheld his stormy gaze. His eyes got stock on mine as he exhaled and walked towards where I sat. I observed my heart race but couldn’t point my fingers at it, maybe because it was the first time he talked since the incident at Duke’s birthday. He held me steady and stared directly into my eyes. I sniffed his perfume from a distance, it was one of the most expensive he had in his collection. “Why are you acting so nervous?” He asked, his voice trembling and diminished. I was actually trying to figure out if that was true or not, as I stood so dumbfounded and stared at him, without a single word. “Are you being serious right now? why aren’t you even talking to me, Ana?” He inquired again. “Um, I think I would have to drink some water, I feel thirsty, even before you came,” That was a blatant lie though, and I knew he wo
