Billionaire Surrogate Wife

Episode 1

Dimitri

Hey, don't look at me that way Anabelle, I said and cupped her face in my hand, staring at her vividly. She tried so hard to hide the tears threatening to fall from her eyes making my heart stop for a moment.

"I just can't take it, Dimitri, I know this is college and we are both going to path ways, but no matter how hard I'm trying to convince myself and not say it out loud that it hurt, I'm seriously in pain, I just can't let you go yet," she poured out and sat on the bed sniffing in.

"I know my love, please don't break down in front of me, it makes my heart bleed in pain too," I told her sitting next to her as I wrapped my hands slowly around her waist.

This girl, was the love of my life, as much as I had to admit that I didn't plan to fall for her,but I just couldn't help it. I know I promise myself not to fall for any girl here till I'm done with college. Now watching her break in front of me makes me feel so bad.

I didn't regret falling for her, I just regret putting her through this pain. We were done with our graduation from college a few weeks ago and my dad didn't waste any time demanding my presence back in Russia.

I have to carry my father's legacy and responsibilities as his true heir and I knew full well that I can't run away from this, knowing how dangerous of a person my father is.

If he finds out I'm with any girl, or she has anything to do with my sudden outburst or refusal to come, he would send his boys dragging me down to Russia themselves.

I know full well how this works, and I have to keep my part of the promise and go back home without causing any trouble for my beloved Annabelle.

"Do you have to go so soon Dimitri, I thought perhaps you were going to stay, or we could," she paused and broke down into another round of tears.

"I know it sounds ridiculous, but I promised my dad that after college I'll come back immediately to continue the family business," I told her and wrapped my hands around hers.

"I'll come to get you, immediately things begin to go alright okay, so please stop crying and let's enjoy our little date," I said smiling at her.

"I'll be here waiting for you my love, I promise you that," she asked staring at me intensely.

"Where ever you are, I'll come for you my love," I say to her and kissed her knuckles.

"You promise? she asked, looking at me and forcing a smile from her face," 

"I promise," I said and smashed my lips on her as I kissed her and slowly began to cup her breast in my hands...

*

I stare at the glass of vodka in my hands, as those memories played in my head repeatedly like it was a scene I needed to be a constant reminder of...

 she made a promise to me to wait for me, she said she was going to wait till I come for her, but she broke that promise, when I came for her, she was no longer there. The only information I got from her was that she left the town six weeks after my departure.

I couldn't understand, everything didn't make any sense to me, even after five years, I still think of her, I still see her in my dreams. Somehow I just wished I hadn't left, or she hadn't broken her promise, maybe then I wouldn't be feeling this way. 

I was still having the glass of vodka, remembering all the happy moments we shared and how much light she had brought to my dark world.

"Anabelle" I muttered smiling at myself, when I heard someone knock on the door, making me sigh...

"Come in," I said in a cold tone, without staring at who it was that walked in...

Boss, I heard Yuri's voice, making me turn around to stare at him. As I look at him, I could see the worries in his eyes as he stare at me, as if something bad was going to happen. Before I could ask what was happening, the door burst open again, but this time harshly revealing my dad, making my face squeeze a bit.

"And where is he," dad said staring at me with anger blazing through his eyes, as he pointed his walking stick in my direction.

I turned to look at Yuri whose head was bowed as he stood there like he was some robot making me sigh.

'Why didn't you mention he was here, Yuri?" I questioned him through gritted teeth, which made him move backward in fright.

"I see, so you asked your guards not to let me in," he said approaching me and I could feel cold chills running down my spine. This man here wasn't just my father, he was that powerful, very powerful and I need not remind myself that this sudden visit of his would only add more problems.

*And to what do I owe this surprise visit," I asked him in a cold tone as my face harden. 

"I see you've grown and my presence doesn't scare you like before," he uttered impressed when he let out a dry laugh.

"Isn't that what you wanted, after all, a cold beast just like yourself," I said ignoring the fact that a few guards were still present listening to us.

"Is that how you welcome your old man, first dismiss your boys and we can discuss as to why I'm here to see you," he said sitting comfortably on the couch in the center of the room while I dismissed Yuri and the others for privacy.

"Now spill it, what do you want this time, cause if I recall, I've done everything you demanded," I said and sat on the next couch facing him.

"Well it's nothing you should worry about, I just wanted to tell you to know that I already formed a truce with the Russian," he paused and stare back at me.

Okay? I managed to say.

"And the agreement for that truce between the Russian and Italian family was that you get married to his daughter," he said dropping the bomb which almost made my eyeballs pop out as I stared at him in shock..
