Semua Bab Married to the mafia: Bab 21 - Bab 30

I stay in the shower until the hot water runs out and the cold forces me to get up and turn the tap off. I wrap my body in a towel and go back to the bedroom. I left the door open, so I can hear several voices downstairs. I get dress and then immediately walk towards the door. I stand under the doorframe as I listen to what they say. Dimitri’s family is here along with several guards.“How did someone broke into the complex without nobody noticing it? How incompetent are you?!” Nikolay asks angrily.“Sir, we don’t know…” a guard says nervously.“I don’t want to hear any more excuses! I want results and I want them now! What am I paying you for?!” Nikolay shouts enraged.“This is been the second time in a few days that our security has been compromised, what is happening?” Uncle Vlad asks worriedly.“We are determined to find out how the intruder came in the complex without being noticed…” the guard says.“This is ridiculous! How are we supposed to feel safe if you can’t even control a

Dimitri has to go out after a while, I guess the Ivanov family is eager to take action against their attackers, although they haven’t even entirely figured out who is behind the attacks. They suspect the Italian mafia, but some of the men, Dimitri included, think it is unlikely. At least that is what Dimitri told me during lunch. It feels weird to hold entire conversations with my husband without arguing or trying to hurt him. It feels peaceful. This, plus Anastasia’s promise to keep my secret, has made this a perfect day.After Dimitri leaves, Margarets comes to hang out with me for a while. Since the house she used to stay in burned down, she is now living with uncle Vlad and aunt Sofia along with the grandparents. At dawn, she invites me to come to have dinner with them, but I rather stay alone here.I play with Bolt while I wait for Dimitri to arrive. The hours go by and he doesn’t come home. I get really hungry so I eat dinner by myself. Once the hunger is gone, I realize how bore

Their meeting is coming to an end, so I go into the bedroom as silently as I can and I close the door. Dimitri walks in a few minutes later.“Did you hear everything all right or do you want a recap?” He asks angrily. I panic. I look at him unsure about what to say. I can’t deny I was eavesdropping, lying would only make things worse. “When I tell you to do something, it is not a suggestion, it’s an order! Do you understand?” He says with a scowl on his face.“Yes, I am sorry,” I say shyly.Dimitri rolls his eyes.“Listening to other people’s conversations makes you look unreliable. No one in this family is going to trust or accept you if you do that,” he says.“You are right, I am sorry,” I mutter as I twist my mouth.“And you should probably stop making those faces too,” Dimitri suggests grabbing me by the chin.I give him a thin smile. I don’t get why he suddenly cares if his family likes me or not.“Why are you telling me this?” I ask him.“Because I want to help you. I would like

After putting the letters back in their place I sit in front of the TV and turn it on, I go through the channels distractedly. All of a sudden, Dimitri comes home with the biggest smile I have seen on him.“Turn the TV off, I have a surprise for you!” He exclaims excitedly.I get up from my seat and follow him outside. We get in his car and we drive out of the complex. Dimitri refuses to tell me where we are going, but my heart starts beating faster when I notice we are going to the city. Once we reach my old street I can’t hide my happiness anymore. Dimitri parks in front of my parents’ house.“We are here,” he says with a wide grin.I still haven’t opened the car door when my sister is already running towards the car to greet me.“I can’t believe you are finally here!” Jenny shouts excitedly as she puts her arms around me.We embrace for the longest time, I missed her so much. My parents are right behind her, ready to hug and kiss me. Tears well up in my eyes, I don’t think I have ev

I wake up slowly and feeling wonderful. Dimitri is next to me, stretching his long and strong arms. A smile appears on my face as I look at him.“Good morning,” he whispers with a grin.We look at each other for a momento, our eyes absorbing every detail about the other person. This is how every morning should be.“Good morning,” I say as I turn my body to face him.Dimitri leans forward to kiss me, as he comes near I inhale his cologne. My favorite scent in the world. Dimitri kisses me. My lips try to smile, but I they are occupied kissing him. Suddenly, the doorbell rings and Bolt starts to bark frenetically outside our bedroom.“Who could it be at this early hour?” Dimitri asks with a scowl on his face.I shrug, I have no idea who’s at the door. I turn my eyes to check the small digital clock on Dimitri’s nightstand. It’s 8:30! It’s not early at all!“Margaret!” I exclaim surprised and I jump up from the bed. We must have overslept. I have to get a dress, Margaret is here.Dimitri s
