Aria

"One more, please," I gulped down the burning alcohol, the sharp sting offering a momentary reprieve from my torment. As I scanned the room, I took in the dimly lit, seedy environment. Drunken men leer at the scantily clad dancers writhing on stage, their hands wandering over their own bodies, stroking their cocks in anticipation. Some licked their lips lasciviously, eyes filled with depravity as they fixated on the exposed flesh of the dancers. The room was suffocating, a den of lust and debauchery, and I hated that my best friend had to work in a place like this.

"You look like the weight of the world is crushing you," the bartender said softly. Zara was my best friend, and her concern was etched across her face. She was a bombshell, with her thick black hair cut into a bob, framing her delicate features. Her deep brown eyes were filled with warmth and understanding, and she carried herself with confidence and poise. Her outfit, though, was another story.

  • Undercover in His Bed   The Price of Silence

    AriaA pair of men in black suits materialized, their towering presence casting an ominous shadow. Their icy, predatory gazes gave me cold shivers, and I caught the flicker of fear in Zara's eyes.Then, like a dark tide of sin and danger, more men emerged from the shadows, their very presence radiating an unsettling aura of trouble. A tense silence enveloped the strip club, broken only by the faint rustling of clothing and the clinking of glasses as the patrons and staff, without a word, slipped away like shadows into the night. It was as if they all understood an unspoken rule: when trouble comes knocking, it's best to make a swift exit and avoid its menacing grasp.My breath caught in my throat as a chilling laugh echoed through the room. Viktor, a sinister smile on his face, stepped forward, his presence casting a pall over the bar."Well, well, well," he drawled, his voice dripping with malice. "What a lovely little reunion we have here. How touching."Zara's face contorted with r

  • Undercover in His Bed   Empire's Edge

    Axel"Fucking Viktor, that mudak, has the balls to open his trash heap right on our doorstep!"Nikolai's voice cut through the haze of smoke and low thrum of bass in the VIP lounge of our rooftop bar.The place was drenched in the scent of expensive cigars and the sweet perfume of hostesses weaving through tables. Neon lights bathed the area in a seductive glow, reflecting off the glassy surface of the central warm pool where shadows mingled and flirted.Roman leaned back, a smirk playing on his lips. "Let him try," Roman drawled, sipping on his vodka, ice-cold like his gaze. "This is our turf. He's just a desperate dog marking territory."I clenched my fist around my own glass, whiskey amber under the nightclub's pulsing lights. The music was a mix of deep house and techno, a throbbing heartbeat that mirrored my rising irritation."Viktor thinks he's making a statement," I spat out.Slamming the whiskey back, feeling it burn all the way down. The glass hit the table hard, a sharp cli

  • Undercover in His Bed   Guardian

    AxelMila's sleepy scream pierced the quiet of the night. She was having a bad dream, I could tell. Her limbs were jolting like she was trying to hold on to someone. She whimpered, and I felt a pang of frustration over the situation.Ever since Maria left us a week ago, Mila had been heartbroken. She had grown attached to her, and who could blame her? Our home wasn't exactly filled with women. The head maid, Svetlana, was the only other woman in the house, but she was stern and cold, not at all like Maria. She didn't seem like she had a soft spot for children. Mila was a smart kid. I was sure she sensed that.I remembered the conversation I had with Mila when I told her Maria had to go home to her own children."But Axel," she'd said, her eyes shining with tears, "why didn't she say goodbye? You promise another angel will come stay with us, right?"I nodded, trying to comfort her. "Yes, malyška, I promise. We'll find someone else who loves you just as much as Maria did. Someone who wi

  • Undercover in His Bed   Restless

    AxelRestlessness consumed me; I gave up on sleep that night. The house was eerily quiet, as if it was holding its breath, amping my unease. Carefully, I slipped out of Mila's room, trying not to wake her up.As I walked down the dim hallway, my footsteps almost silent, my thoughts drifted to Aria. That unforgettable night we spent together haunted me. Her sultry moans, the way she whispered my name in ecstasy, the warmth of her body pressed against mine… Fuck! My cock started to stir in my shorts. My body tensed, reacting to the memory of her flushed skin, her chest heaving as I thrust deeper and deeperWhat are you thinking?I shook my thoughts off as I stood in my meeting room, running a hand through my hair in frustration. Events had been bad lately. The burden of it felt unshakable. Betrayal… The word tasted bitter in my mouth. Two of my men had turned on me. The sting of it was unavoidable. My enemies circled like vultures, and the FBI wasn't far behind. The annoyances were neve

  • Undercover in His Bed   Aquaman

    Aria. Today was the day.I scrutinized my reflection. The woman in the mirror might have looked like me, but she was a stranger, an imposter. My outfit was chosen with surgical precision, aiming for inconspicuous yet competent – a simple black dress that grazed my knees, paired with practical flats. Hair yanked back into a no-nonsense bun, makeup barely there. I wanted to fade into the background, be invisible, but the sense of exposure, the vulnerability, was too palpable.I was smack-dab in the middle of a Russian Bratva war.My pulse raced as I geared up for this interview. An interview that might just toss me back into the treacherous world I'd been desperately trying to evade. The gig as a nanny at Axel-Yakov's mansion – the one man I hoped never to cross paths with again.Or did I really hope not to?"Get a move on." Viktor's voice behind me oozed malice, his final warning echoing in my ears. "Don't you dare screw this up, Aria. You'll get the job, and you'll be my eyes and ear

  • Undercover in His Bed   Diaper-Changing Diplomacy

    Aria. Our gazes locked, and the intensity between us built. It felt like the room had shrunk, leaving only the two of us standing in this electric, charged space. We stood in silence, neither of us moving, as if we were caught in an invisible tug-of-war, neither willing to give in.How did he look so irresistible in broad daylight?"Ahem!" a voice broke in.I Zarached my gaze from the potent snare of Axel's eyes and redirected my focus to the head maid."What?" I asked, feeling a little disoriented."Over there," the woman barked at me, her eyes filled with disdain as she gestured to a spot at the back of the line of girls waiting for their interviews.She'd been such a colossal annoyance since she laid eyes on me.I did my best to avoid Axel's gaze, but it was like trying to resist the pull of gravity. I couldn't help but sneak a quick glimpse of him, and every time I did, I was sucked right back in.He caught my eye, his mouth curling into a knowing smirk. His eyes latched onto min

  • Undercover in His Bed   Cash, Sass, and Audacity

    Aria.It was as if everyone was holding their breath, and then, from the back of the room, a timid voice piped up."Um, excuse me, sir? How much would we be paid for this job? You know, considering the... um, risks?"A grin tugged at the corner of Axel's mouth as he looked at the girl who asked the question. "Ah, getting right to the point, aren't you?" he drawled, his voice dripping with a mixture of amusement and arrogance. "Well, let me put your mind at ease. The salary for this position is $15,000 a month. Cash only."My stomach twisted in a mixture of envy and disbelief as his words sank in. It took me three years to scrape together a measly five-thousand-dollar stash, and here he was offering three times that amount like it was pocket change.The room erupted into a cacophony of gasps, whispers, and nervous giggles. The girls exchanged wide-eyed glances and furtive looks, all too aware of the dangerous world that came with the territory of working for Axel Yakov. But no one dare

    Axel.20 mins earlier."What the hell? Is she for real?" I muttered as my gaze locked onto her. "She wasn't included in this morning's candidates, was she?"My eyes glued to Aria before darting to Svetlana standing rigidly at my side. She solemnly shook her head, her stern expression colored with an unusual hint of curiosity."No, sir. A late addition. One of the janitorial staff vouched for her."I'd burned through those profiles this morning, all eleven, each potential candidate picked apart. But she wasn't among them.The sheaf of resumés in my hand buckled, crumpling in my tense grip. She'd crashed the party, an unexpected twist in my otherwise meticulous process. A surprise but not necessarily an unwelcome one.Now, here she was, in my sight again. Aria. Like a mirage that wouldn't go away. She was back. There were a lot of questions I should have been asking right then, and top of the list should have been "Why?"What was her reason for coming back here?What were the chances of

  • Undercover in His Bed   Side Piece

    Axel.I gave Natalya a soft peck on her forehead then placed her gently into her cradle as I hummed softly.She moved, which made my heart race, thinking she woke up again, but she only scratched her eye and continued sleeping peacefully. I sighed in relief then went out to shoo Mila to her bed as well.She complained about how she was now old enough to stay up late, but she yawned after that, her body betrayed her, and she went to sleep after that.I excitedly went to my room with my dear Aria who was waiting for me on our king-size bed. She grinned once I came into her view and she motioned for me to go join her. I did so without thinking twice."So what was it you said back on the beach?" she asked teasingly as she stared at me with her deep green eyes. She was so beautiful under the moonlight coming from the glass window."I see you still have no patience," I teased back as I pulled her close to me. She giggled as she leaned closer to me and placed a kiss on my chest."Hungry for

    Aria."Malyška!" A deep voice rang out from nearby. I instinctively rose to my feet, glancing toward the source. Axel soon stood beside me, towering protectively. His arm wrapped around my waist while he cradled little Natalya securely in his other arm.Mila's eyes lit up with recognition and excitement. "Dima! Roman!" she exclaimed, hurrying over to them.Roman, ever the jovial one, engulfed Mila in a big bear hug while Dima, holding a festively wrapped package, offered a warm smile."Spasibo, Dima!" Mila said, accepting her gift with a grin.Nikolai, with a warm chuckle, murmured, "S dnyom rozhdeniya," before leaning in to plant a gentle kiss on Mila's cheek as he wished her a heartfelt "Happy Birthday." "Though I must admit, Roman chose the wrapping paper."Roman defended his choice, "Come on! Who doesn't love neon flamingos?""Neon flamingos are my favorite!" Mila exclaimed, dotting a kiss on Roman's cheek. Dressed in yet another of his impeccable suits, he looked every bit the ru

  • Undercover in His Bed   Epilogue I

    Aria.Two years later.The tropical scent of plumerias surrounded me as I lounged beneath a shady palm, baby Natalya nestled next to me. She cooed, her tiny hands playing with a colorful lei draped over her lap. The vibrant flowers contrasted beautifully against her white sundress. Her striking blue eyes, the same hue as Axel's, were filled with wonder as they darted from one fascinating object to the next.Absentmindedly, I touched my barely visible baby bump, and a tingling sense of excitement mixed with a dash of nervousness surged through me. It was still early days, but there was a gut feeling, or maybe it was a maternal instinct, that it might be a boy this time. Just thinking about how Axel's eyes shone when he first held Natalya did something to my heart."Ma-ma-ma," she mumbled, reaching out to hand me a plumeria blossom she'd plucked from her lei. Every day, her speech became clearer, though Axel had the pleasure of hearing her first clear "dada." A memory that still had him

  • Undercover in His Bed   Forever and Always

    Axel.The sun was dropping low on the horizon, painting the sky in shades of orange and gold. From up there, the lake house below looked like some damn postcard. But none of that mattered; my eyes were scanning the distance, waiting for the first glimpse of Aria.Nikolai was standing next to the towering tombstone of my parents that dominated the hill, intricately carved depictions of their glamorous selves captured forever in pristine marble that refused to dull, no matter the years it had endured. Simple lines, regal designs, and elegant inscriptions were a testament to their legacy and style. Ostentation was never their thing. They always preferred intimacy, a close circle. Just like that night – it was just us, family.Nikolai's face was more serious than the occasion called for. "You sure about this? Marriage is a life sentence, you know.""Fuck off, D," I growled, not in the mood for his philosophical shit right then. "You think I'd be here if I wasn't sure?"And then I saw her.

  • Undercover in His Bed   Princess for a Day

    Aria."You look like a princess, Aria." Little Mila's voice was filled with awe, her eyes wide as saucers as she stared at me in my wedding gown.I looked back at the mirror, my reflection transformed by the elegance of the gown and the artful touch of make-up. For a fleeting moment, I did feel like a princess. Like someone who had stepped out of a fairy tale and into a beautiful reality.But this wasn't a fairy tale, and I knew it.This was real life.My life, and today was the first day of a new chapter. A chapter I'd be sharing with Axel, the complex, intriguing man who had brought so much joy, change, and even a bit of turmoil into my life."Thank you, Mila," I said, kneeling down to her level. "You make a pretty fantastic flower girl, you know? Almost like a little fairy.""Really? A fairy?" Mila's eyes sparkled as she took in the compliment. She clutched Max's leash a little tighter; the dog was also dressed up for the occasion, looking rather dashing in his miniature tuxedo.Ma

  • Undercover in His Bed   My Queen

    Aria.Three months laterI was cocooned in warmth, draped in a sensation that felt both novel and intimate. Sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting soft beams across the room. As my eyes fluttered open, I remembered – this was what waking up with Axel felt like.Safe and secure.I was not used to it yet, not really.The past three months had been a whirlwind. We had moved out of the mansion and into this secluded lake house right after that day.That day was meant to be a celebration of Mila's birthday, a day of pure happiness. But instead, that day, Axel had severed his uncle's head from its body.And now he had remained silent about it.But I had overheard Nikolai and Roman discussing matters. The Bratva businesses had been shifted to their control, slowly winding down Axel's direct involvement. I knew they were cleaning up, trying to make things right in their own way.I pressed my naked body even closer to Axel's, savoring the touch of his skin against mine.Axel 2.0 seeme

  • Undercover in His Bed   Axel's Reckoning

    Axel."Malyška… Aria…"Fuck.Fuck! This was all my fault.My voice barely escaped my lips, a hoarse whisper shredded by fear. The kind of fear that grabbed your guts and twisted, the sort that came when you realized you might lose the only goddamn people you loved in this world, the only ones who meant a fucking thing to you.Love.I fucking loved them.I loved Aria.My heart twisted into a lump.Ollie's voice crashed back into my ear. "S-sorry, guys, the frequency got messed up. We're back on. Viktor… Uh, he's on the run. He knows about the trap."But I wasn't listening. Couldn't care less about Viktor right then. I strode into the center of the barn, eyes on the body on the ground.It was Katerina.Thank fuck!Her eyes were wide open, a horrific stare fixed on nothing. Blood oozed out of a bullet hole between her eyes, as clean and precise as a surgeon's cut. A mess beneath the back of her head told me it was probably blown out. She wouldn't be missing it, I was sure.I looked up. A

  • Undercover in His Bed   Party Under Pressure

    Aria.Everyone was already out of the room, heading to get ice cream. A brief moment of privacy."Breathe in, breathe out, it's simple. Just keep telling yourself: We can handle this." Axel's arms wrapped around me, drawing me close to his solid, reassuring chest. I could feel his heartbeat, steady and strong, as he leaned down to kiss my forehead."Everything's fine," I said to myself, wanting to believe it. But the tremble in my voice gave away the fear I was trying so hard to hide."We got this, krasotka," he whispered, his breath warm against my skin. "Trust me."I wanted to believe him. I wanted to feel safe and protected. But I couldn't shake the nagging doubt, the gnawing fear that something was off."Why do you think she wants me to bring Mila to the barn at eight?" I asked. "I'm scared, Axel," I confessed, looking up into his eyes. "Anya, or whatever her name is… She seemed…evil."I saw a flicker of something in his eyes, a tightening of his jaw. But then he was pulling me cl

  • Undercover in His Bed   Birthday Vendetta

    Axel.The three of us stood, looking every bit the elite of the underworld. Nikolai obsessed over his cuffs, ensuring every detail was just right. Roman lounged on the armrest of a chair, his dark suit making him look like he was straight out of a GQ shoot. But his gaze was distant, his mind clearly elsewhere. I recognized that look; he was running through every nuance of that night's plan, mentally rehearsing each step. His fingers absentmindedly played with a Swiss blade, twirling it, dancing it over his knuckles, and teasing the blade close to his thumb. It looked like he might slice it clean off."Five cars, then?" Nikolai asked, breaking the silence. He was referring to the convoy we had prepared for that night's operation. The cars, filled with our chosen men, would be our main force in the attack against Viktor."Enough firepower to do the job, not enough to raise alarms," I assured him. The balance was crucial. Too few, and we risked failure; too many, and we tipped our hand t
