His To Claim Chapter 17
VeraWithout a doubt Anya was going to remain alive for the foreseeable future if her lurking guards had any say in the matter. Dmitri stepped into view like he had been summoned.His presence stacked the odds against me. He wasn't going to let me do anything foolish to her. “Why are we stopping?” Katya asked from the backseat, her tone light but edged with curiosity.“You wish for her to proceed?” Pavel asked with an eyebrow raised. It was increasingly becoming his favorite mode of communication. Katya shrugged. “I was looking forward to it.”Not bothering to spare either of them a glance, my attention stayed fixed ahead, on the entrance of the hotel.I narrowed my eyes slightly, watching the way Anya moved. She looked exactly the way she had in her pictures. Fucking perfect. My gaze shifted, dragging away from Anya to the men positioned around the entrance.One near the pillar.Two across the driveway.One by the glass door.I watched one of the men turn slightly. His gaze swep

Nikolai Punching him now however wasn't a bright idea. I could have patience for long enough for him to never know I was the one on the delivering end. The things I could do to his face in the dark."Anya used to be a friend of yours, did she not?" Morozov asks, his tone deceptively casual.“Used to. There are reasons why friendships end.”“And I have given you a reason to begin afresh. On a clean slate.”I couldn't think of anyone I wanted to be stuck with less. Anya, with all her glory, wasn't someone I could stand for a long time. "She can't marry a married man," I say flatly."But she's determined to." Morozov leans back in his chair, “Sergi beat me to you. That's a wrong that could easily be remedied.""My marriage isn't up for negotiation.""Everything is up for negotiation, Nikolai." He signals the waiter for another coffee. "Anya has been... fixated on you for quite some time. Certain impressions stay with young girls."My jaw clenches beneath my mask. I remember that night

VeraI am startled awake only to find an empty bed and the faint scent of Nikolai's cologne lingering on the pillow beside me, finding only cool sheets where his warmth should be.He's already gone to meet Morozov.I sit up, pushing my hair out of my face, and notice a note on the nightstand. His handwriting is surprisingly neat, almost elegant.“Stay in the penthouse. Dimitri left breakfast in the kitchen. I'll explain everything when I return.” -NikolaiI crumple the note in my fist. Finding my way to the kitchen, I am greeted with an elaborate spread waiting for me and a cup of warm coffee. I wrap my hands around the cup and settle onto one of the bar stools, trying not to imagine Morozov's smile as he sits across from Nikolai. Trying not to wonder what this peace treaty is about.And I fail miserably. I drain my coffee and pour another cup, but it tastes like ash in my mouth. I need a distraction. Something to keep my hands busy and my mind from spiraling.My eyes drift to the

NikolaiThe early morning light filters through the curtains, casting soft shadows across Vera's sleeping face. I watch her for a moment longer than necessary, memorizing the peaceful curve of her lips, the way her hair spills across the pillow like silk.Last night, I'd been convinced I'd lost her. That the Sicilians had finally made good on their threats and torn apart our room looking for the documents they believed I had. The fear that gripped me when I found the destruction, when I couldn't find her anywhere, it was a feeling I never wanted to experience again.But she'd simply been at a business meeting. Handling her father's business in her gallery.The relief I felt when she walked through that door was so overwhelming I'd nearly forgotten to be angry.I lean down, pressing my lips gently to her forehead. She stirs slightly, a soft sigh escaping her, but doesn't wake. Good. She needs the rest, especially after the chaos of last night.And she doesn't need to be anywhere near

Vera"Where were you?" His voice was deadly low and I considered the consequences of taking another step away from him.I stand there, pulse racing, wondering how to answer. I could lie. I should lie.But something about the barely leashed fury in his posture made me reckless."My father's associates needed paperwork handled. I manage the legal side of his gallery contracts." I lift my chin. "I didn't realize I needed to ask permission to do my job."The silence that follows is suffocating."Your job," he repeats slowly, dangerously, "is to inform me when you leave this house.""I'm not your prisoner, Nikolai."He closes the distance between us in two strides, backing me against my car. One hand braces against the metal beside my head while the other grips my jaw, forcing me to meet his eyes through that damned mask."No, *solnyshka*, you're my wife. Which means when you disappear for hours, don't answer your phone, and sneak back into my house like a thief, I'm going to have question

Nikolai's POV “When can we expect payment from the Morozov’s?” Philip asks as he turns the page of his thick old ledger. “In two days,” I reply approaching the table and take a seat across from him. “Why the fuck won’t you let Dimitri get you a laptop? You can’t keep, documenting our financial records in that.” I gesture at the ledger he’s still writing intently in. There had been more than one occasion where I had ordered him to turn the ledgers in to have them handled, preferably burned, but no amount of threats worked on Philip. Partly, because he knew I couldn't hurt him, which only made me want to burn the ledgers more. He looks at me over the rim of him glasses. “I’m not leaving sensitive information in some electronic box where anyone can access it.” “There are things called firewalls, Philip. No one can access your stuff with one of those installed.” “Doesn’t mean I'm comfortable with them.” As much as I want to give up on trying to convince him to use any

NikolaiThere were three categories of foolish people I did not like to meet, ever. Number one, people who could not remain loyal. The reason for that is quite obvious, if I could not trust you I would rather you stayed with the other billions of humans that I did not personally know. Loyalty took

Vera Dressing up had been nice. I wore long black jeans and a white top with so many ropes. It had one around my neck, on each of my wrists, on my waist, and somewhere on my back. Then I paired my attire with white heels. If I had not become an artist I could have done very well as a stylist. A

Vera I didn't consider myself to be a very violent person, but as I stood in front of this I'd man, I was considering changing my ways. Nothing would have made me happier than being able to kill him. A gun will be too violent. A noose would be too ancient. And a knife blade to the wrist would
