This felt good, I thought as I sat there, just living. It felt so refreshing to do something I really wanted to do. I had never considered taking up modelling as a job, but if all these fashion icons in this room thought I was worth the honor, then I was certainly worth every damn thing in this w
“What's going on here?” I asked carefully, still looking at Nikolai. “He came out of nowhere and wouldn't leave or say who invited him.” One of the security men explained. I sighed, “I'm so sorry, he's here to see me.” The man frowned as he eyed Nikolai's gun wearily, “Are you sure, Miss. A

I had no time to comment before she wrapped her hands around my neck fiercely, “Look at you, my groom! You're so hot!” She tried to kiss me but I tactfully dodged it, planting a quick kiss on forehead instead, “What are you doing here? We are not supposed to see each other before the wedding! It

What a life sentence, I thought in disgust. “I do!” Stacy replied excitedly, her tone sharp and urgent. The priest nodded as he turned to me, “Russel Mancini, do you–” My phone buzzed and ignoring them both, I retrieved it from my pocket and glanced at the screen, it was a message from Vince
His soldiers and allies, both seated and standing, reached for their guns, but all that had been previously arranged. For every one of his soldiers, allies and partners in this hall, two of mine were standing right behind them, the cold nozzle of our guns pressed to the back of their heads. Stacy
Chapter 105 ALLESIA ~~~0~~~ When I agreed to come here, I didn't give much thought to the emotions I would get on seeing Russel again. It took Nikolai several tries to finally convince me to agree, and now that I was here, I wasn't sure if I truly belonged. I had imagined I was making progress

EPILOGUE RUSSEL ~~~0~~~ I stood perfectly still, my thoughts reeling as I waited in the quiet hall of the warehouse. During my absence, Stacy had refused to speak, see, or let anyone touch her. Even Kegan, who was supposed to order a pregnancy test done for her by now, couldn’t do that because
I reached out and touched his face, “I have the perfect man, and I wish to keep everything around us perfect.” After a while, Russel turned to me with a mischievous smile. “You know, we still have some time before we have to go back.” I raised an eyebrow. “What are you suggesting?” He leaned in,

Chapter 165 ALLESIA ~~~°°~~~ Three wonderful weeks on this island, as much as we enjoyed the bliss, we couldn't stay forever. Tomorrow morning, we'll have to return to our life in Sicily. Kegan handled things in Russel’s absence up until the second week, allowing us undivided time to enjoy our h
Everywhere his finger bared, he pressed his lips there. “You’re so fucking gorgeous,” he murmured against my skin, “My wife.” “My husband.” it came out in a low moan, “How did I not know I’ll never be able to move on from you after that first time?” Russel grinned, “You were the most helpless,
