Their Serenity (A Reverse Harem) 34
Nial.Discomfort.Disappointment.And the fear that she looked at us with was overbearingly heart-consuming that made my own heart clench in pain. I didn't want her to feel like that. No one of us wanted her to feel like that.She broke down.But none of those things hurt more than the look of pure self-hate and disgust she had on with the gloomy atmosphere that we were trapped in while departing home didn't make it any better.Sofia refused to talk to us as she cried silently, her heart-wrenching quiet sobs racked through her small form and I fought the urge to comfort her in any way she'd let me.But I held myself back.My brothers were no better.Nadei was seething in anger as he always did instead of showing the hurt and expressing the pain that he felt. He bottled it up and I'm afraid that it'll catch up to him one day.Nikolai being the one with his heart on his sleeve and the most sensitive one amongst us had sadness and desperation colored all over his face staring longingly a

Author's POV.While Sofia was lost in her thoughts scrubbing her skin in the bath to distract herself, those endless grief injected tears flowing down her cheeks.The trio was in their study.Nadei had his head buried in his hands trying to control the urge to break something, he has always been the temperamental one amongst his brothers.He was the older brother with anger issues and a significant amount of trauma weighing his back. Nadei had tried to protect his younger brothers from the random and unnecessary beatings their father would inflict upon them.Lucifer Idler Alexeyev lived up to his name as a successful businessman and a ruthless mafia leader yet he was pictured as the perfect husband and perfect father.He thrived on power, money and territory. And he wanted his sons to be the same in any way possible.Meanwhile, Nikolai was overthinking everything, his thoughts were a complete mess, and his demons were catching up to him.She would never accept this.She would never w

Sofia.Today was absolute shit.My wishful thinking screwed me over is one thing to say it and the whole fiasco from yesterday was still embedded in as my brain tried to convince me to do whatever it was to get away and my heart wanted to give them a chance.But the darkness and possessiveness that they reflected had me agreeing with my brain.And I wished that my supposed blood pumping-piece-of-crap-of-a-heart wasn't forcing me to feel things that I didn't want to feel.Snapping my eyes open. I felt a dampness in my crotch reaching my hand to touch my inner thigh. A wave of cramps rolled through the inner walls of my pussy and I scrambled to my feet letting out curse words as I pulled the covers seeing the blood on the comforter.It leaked through. I placed a warm hand on my lower stomach as I took my ass to the bathroom with a change of clothes and a pad taking a quick shower feeling refreshed and clean throwing the dirty clothes in the hamper and taking off the comforter with from

Sofia."Fuck," I stretched out the word and squeezed the life out of Nikolai's calloused large hand hissing at the horrible feeling as my lower stomach contorted from the inside at innate agony.And men compare getting kicked in the balls to having period cramps as if they could feel their dicks being ripped from the inside out.Lucky idiots.Nikolai gave me a small peck on my forehead sitting on the bed as I unconsciously leaned my head against his shoulder, his abnormally hot hand resting on my lower tummy.And I sighed at the nice feeling."You're like a human heater," I meekly whispered and he laughed rubbing soothing circles over my skin and I accept the nice feeling with open arms.Goosebumps rose on my skin whenever his thumb put the smallest bits of pressure whenever I hissed and the cramps start subsiding going to a normal manageable pace.Manageable my ass, this shit still hurt but hey, at least it was distracting me from my shitty emotional state. So Yay!"But I'm your huma

Sofia.After the trio left. I just stayed in bed playing Episode, a knock came on the door as one of the older maids from before took the empty tray and brought me another mug of tea.And that got a smile on my face at the thoughtful gesture that was probably Nial's doing. I explained to the Mara --the maid that I wanted another heating pad as well.I smiled gratefully thanking the kind older woman as she fetched me what I had requested and my lunch too then I realized how long I'd been on my phone.I had my lunch in peace listening to some music and setting the empty tray and plate aside. The same woman took the empty dishes and I thanked her for the billionth time.Then, I continued playing Epi while sipping my tea letting out contented sighs till I received a notification.A huge grin got plastered itself on my face at the text.Carter: Can we FaceTime ? missed ur pretty face and m bored rn.I laughed typing back.Me: couldn't bare to not be in my amazing presence huh?Carter: meh,

Sofia.Cami left me to go through the movies that we could stream on the screen and me being the overly obsessed Disney fan, I had picked Encanto.She came back with some snacks and I mumbled a 'thank you' grabbing a bag of Doritos to munch on and press play as I plopped the heating pad- I was taking everywhere to place it on my lower stomach.And I sighed. Cami and I snuggled into our blankets watching the movie animatedly but silently shoveling unhealthy snacks down our throats but at least it tasted good.-The credits rolled in and Cami turned off the screen turning to face me, a sad smile on her face and I tensed expecting the worst."Sof, Dimitri told me, about-uh you know," she muttered mournfully casting me a worried glance as I understood what she was talking about.I awkwardly nodded feeling her sit next to me holding my hand and giving it a light squeeze.Instead of giving me a lame apology that wouldn't help with anything besides fuck with my deteriorating mental health, s

Author's POV.The sun shone through the curtains and the warm breezy weather and the beauty of Milan were always an amazing sight for the trio to wake up to.Especially when they were visiting their favorite allies. The Alexeyev brothers were the biggest gun trading and highest paid in the arm dealing business and their allies were always numerous but the Italians were the trio's favorite, they got along with them because of their fun but hardworking selves.Plus, they were actually decent people to deal with despite their crime-filled lifestyle.Each one of the trio woke up feeling absolutely empty without Sofia by their sides.The beautiful view did nothing to soothe them but it reminded them to bring their love with them the next time to experience this along their side.Nadei kept dreaming of her cute smile, her giggles, her adorable face that call from earlier was still ingrained in his brain making his heart beat faster with happiness and joy.She missed me he felt happiness sw

Nial."Doll, are you okay?" I said, the worry in my voice, evident but when she let out a giggle, I found my stoic façade falling to the ground.And a smile tugged over my lips."I'm alright, thank you, uh-what about you guys?" She asked and I visualized her blushing cute face contorted in embarrassment with her nose scrunched.Adorable.I let out a chuckle and made my way to our car, the Italians leading the way with their SUVs.Aurelio's bleached hair and bright blue eyes--that reminded me of my babygirl's-- caught my sight and he waved gesturing that we were leaving now.And I jogged to the car closing the door after getting in to see Aurelio driving, Nikolai was in the back with Nadei."Nial," My gorgeous girl mumbled and I realizef that I haven't answered her question."We're fine, babygirl-" Aurelio cast me a knowing smirk and I snorted with a flip of my finger, "We're just missing you," I admitted longingly and she sighed."I-I missed you too," her words had my brain freeze for

Sofia.The world blurred around me.The sound of my own breath—ragged, sharp—was the only thing keeping me tethered to reality as I clutched Lorelai in my arms.Aurelio is waking up.Vale’s words echoed in my skull, but my body had already moved before my mind could process them. I was rushing to get to the door.The air rushed past me as I made it to the front door, barefoot, heart hammering, pulse wild. Luca grabbed my arm before I could get into the car, his grip strong but careful. “Sofia, relax—”“I need to see him,” I snapped, shaking him off.“We’re coming with you,” Nikolai said from behind me.There was no room for argument. I didn’t care about security, the logistics, the doctors, or the tests.I just needed to see my brother._At the hospital.The room smelled sterile. Like antiseptic, bleach, and something too clean to be comforting. It made my senses twitch at the overly powerful smell.I stood in the doorway, my pulse thundering in my ears, my hands clenched into fists

Sofia.Mornings in our house were never quiet.And I wouldn’t have it any other way.The kitchen smelled like warm syrup, cinnamon, and something unmistakably homey. Sunlight streamed through the windows, golden and soft, casting a warm glow over the absolute war zone unfolding in front of me.Jade stood on his stool, spatula in hand, looking every bit like a tiny war general as he surveyed the griddle. “Mama, this is serious. We need maximum efficiency if we’re gonna get pancakes and whipped cream before Alexei does.”Gosh, he sounded like Schmidt from New Girl when he said that, I cackled internally. Alexei, sitting on the counter beside Arsen, scoffed. “You act like I can’t hear you.”Jade ignored him. Instead, he turned to Lorelai, who was standing beside me, her tiny hands clutching a measuring cup filled with flour."Lory, you’re on mixing duty."Lorelai nodded solemnly. “Mix.”Jade nodded back like this was a military operation. “Good. Uncle Renzo’s in charge of toppings.”Ren

Sofia.The jet ride home was quiet.Not peaceful.Just quiet.Nikolai sat beside me, his fingers curled around my thigh, warm and grounding. Nadei and Nial sat across from us, their gazes locked onto me in that quiet way they always did when they thought I was about to break.But I wasn’t breaking.I was exhausted.I leaned back against the leather seat, exhaling through my nose, my body thrumming with tension. The blood was gone from my skin, wiped clean before I ever stepped foot on the jet, but I still felt it.In my bones.Under my nails.Seeping into my fucking soul.I closed my eyes.For the first time in weeks, the war was over. Momentarily.But I didn’t know how to stop fighting.-We stepped inside, the weight of everything hit me. Not just the blood. Not just the ghosts but the home of it all. The scent of vanilla and citrus from the candles I always burned. The warmth of the dimmed hallway lights. The faintest sound of Jade’s giggles coming from the kids’ wing.I exhaled sh

Sofia.The world didn’t stop after a war.I learned that a long time ago.You spill blood, you carve your revenge into the bones of your enemies, you rip apart the men who dared to harm what was yours—and then? Then, the world moves on.Seemed easy enough, right? Well, it fucking wasn't.The city still breathed. People still laughed, drank, fucked. Unaware that, just hours ago, I had rewritten the rules of their underworld. That we have changed something that a lot have tried to but couldn't.Mikhailov was dead.Vaschenko was dead.Petrov was dead.Their corpses were nothing more than stains on the concrete, their names nothing more than whispered cautionary tales for the next generation of ambitious fools who thought they could touch an Alexeyev and walk away.And yet…The ache in my chest remained because Aurelio was still lying in that hospital bed.Still pale. Still silent.Still gone in all the ways that mattered.I exhaled slowly, gripping the edge of the sink, staring at my re

Sofia.There was no calm before the storm.No quiet anticipation.No room for hesitation.By the time we left Petrov’s lifeless body cooling in a puddle of his own blood, the only thing left was the pulse of war thudding through my veins.One more.Vladimir Mikhailov.I could already see his name carved into his gravestone, already hear his screams before we sent him to rot in the ground.The ride back to the safehouse was silent, thick with something heavy, something sharp. Luca drove again, his grip tight on the wheel, knuckles white. Nadei sat beside him, eyes fixed on the road ahead, his body coiled in quiet tension.Renzo was wiping his blade clean, slow and methodical, like he was already picturing the next throat he’d slit.Nikolai sat beside me, his arm slung lazily over my shoulder, his fingers trailing idly along my collarbone—a contrast to the bloodlust still simmering in his gaze.We weren’t done.Not yet.Mikhailov was the last one left.And when I found him, I wouldn’t j

Sofia.Vengeance had a taste.It was bitter, metallic, laced with the promise of death.I could feel it on my tongue as I sat in the back of the car, staring out at the city bleeding light into the darkness. Neon signs flickered against the glass, a kaleidoscope of color that felt too bright, too alive for what we had just done. I could still feel Vaschenko’s blood drying on my skin. Still feel the weight of the gun in my hand, the kick of the recoil, the way his body had spasmed before he stilled.Dead.And yet, it wasn’t enough.Because Aurelio was still in that hospital bed.Still fighting for his life.Still teetering on the edge of existence, caught between this world and whatever lay beyond.And as long as my brother lay there, trapped in that purgatory, the men responsible didn’t deserve to fucking breathe.I inhaled slowly, pressing my fingertips to my temples, grounding myself in the dull ache. I could feel the weight of their gazes on me—Nikolai’s steady, Luca’s knowing, Nad

Sofia.Vengeance had a taste.It was bitter, metallic, laced with the promise of death.I could feel it on my tongue as I stood in the safehouse’s war room, staring down at the map of the city, my fingers trailing over the names we had carved into our list.Petrov. Mikhailov. Vaschenko.Their days were numbered.And tonight?Tonight, the countdown began.Luca was the first to break the silence. "We start with Vaschenko," he muttered, tapping the red mark on the map where the bastard’s operations were stationed. "He’s the easiest to take out first. He thinks he’s untouchable in that casino of his, but we’ve already got men inside.""He’s a coward," Nikolai added, his voice sharp. "He runs his mouth, but he won’t fight. He hides behind security, behind money. He won’t see it coming."Good.I wanted him to be afraid.I wanted him to choke on it.Valentino leaned against the table, arms crossed, his expression unreadable. "We make an example out of him."A slow, dark smile curled at my li

Sofia.The scent of death still clung to my skin.Even after we had left the warehouse, after we had burned the bodies, after I had washed my hands clean of the blood—I still felt it.Felt it under my nails.Felt it in my fucking bones.I sat in the back of the car, the engine humming beneath me, the city lights flickering past in a blur of gold and white. My reflection stared back at me in the window, eyes dark, empty.I barely recognized myself."Petrov. Mikhailov. Vaschenko."The names echoed in my head like a death sentence.They had tried to kill Aurelio.They had wanted me alive. They were unrelenting. The first attack. Sokolov. Their army. Every thing they have done led us to this moment. I curled my fingers into a fist, nails biting into my palm.No one moved in the car.Luca sat beside me, his jaw clenched so tightly I could hear his teeth grinding. Nadei was on my other side, his knuckles still bruised, still stained with a red that no amount of scrubbing would erase.Nik

Sofia.The night air was cold. Not the kind of cold that bit at your skin. Not the kind that sent shivers racing down your spine. This was something else.Something hollow.The kind of cold that crept into your bones, settled in your veins, and wrapped around your heart like an iron vice. I sat in the back of the car, staring out at the city lights blurring past, but I didn’t see them.All I could see was Aurelio.Pale. Motionless. His body hooked up to machines, his chest barely rising and falling.The last time I had seen him, really seen him, he had been full of life. Full of energy. Full of that fire that burned inside all of us.Now?Now, he was trapped between life and death, teetering on the edge.And I hadn’t been there.I had been tangled up in Arsen. Lost in him. Lost in us. Letting myself forget, even if just for a moment, that the world outside still existed.And while I had been pretending—My brother had been bleeding out.A sharp, stinging pain shot through my palm.I lo
