Adrian's Pov The tears kept falling from her eyes like a cascade, and she didn't dare look up. I held the tray to stop it from shaking, but she tightened her grip around it and said-“My father wouldn't try to kill you.” Her voice was shaking, and when she looked up at me, her eyes were swollen and red.Isabelle was innocent. Which mafia family doesn't kill people?“You should know that, it's just the truth.” She tried convincing me.I didn't utter a word to her. Her eyes wavered behind me, and I could tell she met Gabriel's gaze.“Mr Adrian, I will show you to your room.” The maid was standing behind Isabelle.“Of course.” I took a step forward but then-The sound of the tray shattering on the ground caused my ears to feel as though it was being pierced by the sound of a bachin sound.I turned and Isabelle's eyes met mine instantly, her pleading eyes slowly dropped tears down her cheeks, staining her beautiful features and when it hit her lips, they slowly parted.“Stay away from a

Adrian's PovIt's been a week, and only Isabelle and her mother have been to visit me. There was no news about the death of the prisoner, everything outside seemed normal, and everything in the hospital.I thought by now, Nikolai might have figured I killed his prisoner, but he wasn't here yet.For some reasons I was disappointed, even though knowing it would put me at a disadvantage. I had replayed it over again in my head waiting for him so I could question him why he had tried to have me killed.But he didn't come.There was no CCTV in the basement, and I had wiped off my fingerprints. Perhaps, they never found out it was me.“Adrian.” Isabelle smiled as she walked to me from the door.“You are getting discharged today.” The doctor walked inside and then said, “Your wife has been impatient. The tests came out fine, you will be given medications, make sure to take them. Mrs Thompson will go with you, to help with the bandages. You still have to keep those on for the next one wee

Adrian's Pov When I woke up, it was almost morning. I could barely stand and I tried to hold myself.The nurse was laying on the sofa, a bit uncomfortable.I tried turning on the lights to wake her up and thankfully she did.“Why are you sleeping here?” “Adrian, you are awake.” She muttered. Her eyes were reddened and instead of preparing to leave she sat up and settled into the sofa. “Were you worried?” I asked and she brushed me off.“You gave us quite another scare I must say.” “I'm sorry.” I responded, seeing the bags under her eyes and her wrinkled skin.She seemed to be around my mother's age, if she were alive.“Why did you have to leave? You were barely even in a position to go to the restroom by yourself.”“I had something to do.” “I see. Well, I hope you are done, cause you will not be able to leave here again until you are well.”I could see a glint of fear lingering in her eyes, one that caused her breath to become heavier than normal.There could only be one person t

Nikolai PovHe was friendly, too friendly.Adrian had too much energy. I could sense he was skimming something.But as much as I tried to think about it, I couldn't help but wonder if he actually was a member of the club or he followed me.Both reasons seemed to hit on my nerves. I could sense my lips constantly wanting to curl into a smile.I hated it. “Eat the one I gave you.” He wasn't distant, he cut a piece of the stake and waited for me to part my lips.The boundary I had drawn, he was trespassing.“Eat your meal, I don't like such food.” I waited for him to put down the knife, but Adrian seemed to have other plans. I could tell from the naughty smile he had on…What could he be thinking? I couldn't guess, but I was guarded.He dropped the spoon back on the plate, and stood up. Adrian walked to me, and placed his hand on my shoulder, and then leaned his face forward.My breath hitched, my space was violated.“I will feed you, Mr Volkov.” He took the spoon and placed it on my

Adrian's Pov The air suddenly became chilled as Nikolai took a step forward. My heart clenched tight, and I stumbled backwards.He stopped.“Why are you here?” His eyebrows raised and his eyes trailed my body, when he saw the car keys dangling on my thumbs, he scoffed.He took another step forward, and I couldn't think of anything better than a truth wrapped in a lie.“I followed you here.” I muttered and his eyes widened. I felt life escape from me the moment I said those words.For a fleeting moment, I gasped at the thought of actually following him here.I swallowed as tension gripped my nerves causing air to escape my barely parted lips.But he, Nikolai, was without words.He stared into my eyes without batting an eye.One, two, I counted and he squinted as if waiting for more information.But I had none. After a few moments of silence and tensed air, I asked him, closing the space between by two steps.“Why are you here?” He didn't answer. It felt as though he was deep in thou
