Zakh

The priest lay slumped on the bare hardwood floor. Blood puddled around his chest as his body jerked with wheezy, labored breaths. The bald man was one inch from death, his eyes squinting at the ceiling as his thin lips trembled. He spoke, whispering to himself, no doubt in prayers as he dreaded his end coming near.

To the left of him, Maxim, slumped against a chair, had just taken a hit from my cousin. Blood streaked from my youngest brother's brow, and he pressed his hand to his side and hissed in pain.

He'd been beaten. I already knew he had been, but I hadn't planned on walking in here and witnessing a repeat of an attack in real time.

Another Antonov soldier remained unmoving on the other side of the room. He was likely the backup witness I'd requested my brother to find to further validate my wedding here.

In a bizarre twist of karma, Akim had come here to stop my wedding. He bared his teeth at me as he turned to face us as we came into the room. As the door clicked shut af

    ZakhI killed him.I killed a man. Not just anyone, but the heir to the Antonov Bratva.My nerves were already frayed. Inside my mind, thoughts and rational connections struggled to connect and fire. In a shell-shocked state of stupor, I breathed hard and willed my heart to keep up with this suspense and danger.The sheer incredulity, too.I killed him.I'd never used violence like this, not directed at anyone, but more than that, I'd never, ever been in the position to take someone's life.Zakh moaned, rolling his head to see his cousin dead on the floor. I snapped out of the haze of pure shock and ran my hands over him. My fingers were coated with blood from the wound on his shoulder, but as I hurried to check him over, I realized the bullet hadn't entered straight through him. He must have twisted as he'd tackled me, leaving his shoulder and back to take the brunt of that bullet grazing him deeply."Are you...?" I couldn't speak. My vocal cords were stiff, frozen from the shock, bu

    AlisaZakh slammed against me, knocking us to the ground. My ears rang with the blast of the gun fired so close, and I sucked in a quick breath and held it. Terror held me in its grip, and I did my best to break Zakh's fall.He was too large to buffer his drop to the ground. Combined with his tackle, the force of his taking the bullet Akim had aimed at me, and the sketchy stance I'd stood with as I tried to shrink out of my former fiancé's sight, I was on my ass. Flat on my ass, stunned by the juddering impact of being brought down.My life had flashed before my eyes. The second Akim pointed his gun at me, I swore I felt my essence slipping away. My soul faded and my vision blurred with extreme horror. This was it, the moment I would be done with my time in this life.But Zakh had other plans. He dove in front of me, taking the hit of the bullet, and I scrambled to keep up with the frantic change of events. My mind lagged. My senses were sluggish. I felt as though I looked through tun

    ZakhTeasing Alisa in the bathroom caused more harm than good. I had her right where I wanted her, but I'd also made myself distracted with lust.She wasn't going to run. I couldn't know that with one hundred percent confidence, but she wasn't stupid. She'd heard Yusef. She realized the real and waiting risks that she would face if she decided to bolt from me. I'd proven to her that she would be better off with me. I'd protected her under gunfire. I'd pleasured her like no one else ever had. I didn't want to assume that she would think she owed it to me to stay and not run. But I hadn't hesitated to manipulate her, to taunt her into being so close to an orgasm, only to stop her before she could find her release.Stupid. It was a huge mistake on my part because I'd gotten turned on too. Shoving my cock along her ass had tempted me too far, and as I rubbed my erection, letting her watch me and see what she did to me, I pushed myself too far.We'd left the studio apartment and headed tow

    AlisaZakh's lips smashed over mine, claiming my mouth in a hard, fast kiss. I rocked back, surprised at his kiss, but he caught me with his arm around my waist."No," he replied, turning me to face the shower. He kept his arms around me, one hand cupping my breast as he thumbed my nipple into a stiff peak. His other hand slid lower, over my stomach, until he rubbed his palm against my mound.I breathed in the steam from the shower. From zero to sixty, he revved me up to instant, total desire. Leaning my head back on his chest, I sighed and spread my legs wider apart, already getting used to how badly I'd want to give him the easiest access to where I ached for him."I can make you feel better. Like this." He stabbed his finger past my folds and collected my cream. Already, I was dripping for him. When he rocked his hips against my ass, grinding his hard-on along my crack, I breathed faster yet."I... Okay." I shivered under his touch, pushing back against his cock trapped in his pant

    AlisaFor the second time in such a short span, I woke up knowing I would be married today. It would stick. I was sure that this wedding would actually happen.I lay in the bed, blinking away the last traces of sleep, and knew that in a few hours, I would no longer be just myself. I would be expected to undergo another identity crisis and change who I was.Yesterday, Zakh took my virginity. That was already a huge shift to get used to. The one thing that had always defined me and kept me safe and untouchable no longer mattered.Once I shared vows with him, though, I would no longer be Alisa Aslanov, Sergei Aslanov's daughter. I would be Alisa Antonov, Zakh Antonov's wife.The title sounded so powerful, so ultimate and unchangeable, and it would be. Women married for life in the bratva. Divorce was never an option, and spouses remained linked in name and purpose until death.And mine will reach me swiftly if I don't do this.If I were to run away or return to my father, I would be dead
