Dimitri's POV

“Kill him.”

The words left my mouth before I could think.

“You will not kill me, Dima,” he said softly. “You do not have the balls.”

Rage exploded through me like fire. “Do not test me.”

“Why?” I asked coldly. “Because we are brothers? That died the moment you touched her.”

His green eyes locked on mine. “If you kill me, you prove her right. You prove that you are exactly what she fears. A monster who will destroy anyone who gets in his way. Even family.”

I hated him for being right.

My finger twitched towards my own gun. I wanted to do it myself. I wanted to put a bullet bet

    CHAPTER SEVEN Irina's POV “Make me, little brother.” Dimitri's voice was ice cold.I pressed myself against Dimitri's chest as my whole body trembled. I could feel his heart pounding beneath my cheek. I could feel the tension in every muscle. I could feel the rage radiating off him like heat.This was my fault.All of this was my fault.“Both of you, enough!” Mikhail's voice cut through the room like a blade. “Alexei, put your weapons away. Now!”Alexei didn't move. His eyes stayed locked on Dimitri’s.I had never seen Dimitri like this in four years of serving him, I had never seen him lose control. He was always calm, always composed and always in command of himself and everyone around him.But now his ocean blue eyes burned with a fury that terrified me.“Please,” I whispered against his chest. “Please stop.”Dimitri's arms tightened around me. “It is alright,” he murmured.

    Dimitri's POV “I cannot,” Irina whispered. “Please do not make me choose. I cannot.”“You have to,” Mikhail said firmly. “This is your life, your future, your child. You have to decide what is best for all of you.” His voice dropped. “You have seven days…”“No,” I interrupted. “She does not need to make a choice. She stays with me.” Every eye in the room turned to look at me.“Dimitri,” Mikhail started.“She stays with me,” I repeated. My voice was cold. “She is my maid. She lives in my house. She is under my protection. That doesn't change because my brother made a mistake.”“A mistake that resulted in a child,” Alexei’s voice was dangerous. It was the tone he used right before he killed someone. “She has my child. That makes her mine.”I took a step towards him. “She is not yours. She will never be yours.”“The baby inside her says differently.” He shot at me, his green eyes glistening with rage.“The baby that should have been mine.” I shot back. “The baby that only exists because

    CHAPTER FIVE Irina I stood frozen, watching the two brothers face each other like wolves circling for a kill.My heart pounded so hard I thought it might burst through my chest. My hands trembled. My legs felt like they might give out at any moment.This was my fault.All of this was my fault.I know." Alexei's said, his voice was quiet. "But the baby changes everything. You know it does. She is carrying my child, Dima. That makes her mine. That is how our world works.”Dimitri looked at his twin with hatred, his fist tightened. At first, I thought he was going to agree."Get out," he said quietly."She is carrying my child," Alexei said, his expression firm and unyielding."We're not entirely sure about that," Dimitri whispered, his voice shaking with rage he could barely contain."Neither do you," Alexei shot back.And like that war was declared in that moment. Not with words or weapons, but with the silence that followed. The silence of brotherhood dying.I watched the two men I

    CHAPTER FOURDimitri's POV The word exploded from me like a gunshot."WHO?!"Irina flinched. She wrapped her arms around herself like that could protect her from my rage. Tears streamed down her face. Her whole body shook."Dimitri, please…" she whispered."Tell me." I stepped closer. My hands clenched into fists at my sides. Every muscle in my body was coiled tight. "Tell me who put their hands on you. Tell me who dared touch what was mine.""I... I cannot…""You will." My voice dropped to a deadly whisper. "You will tell me right now or I will tear this entire compound apart until I find them myself. I will line up every man and put a bullet in their head one by one until someone confesses.""I am sorry," she choked out through her sobs. "I am so sorry. I did not mean for this to happen. I did not want this. I thought…""You thought what?" I demanded. "You thought I would not find out? You thought you could hide a pregnancy from me?""I thought it was you!" The words burst out of h
