Before I gathered my thoughts enough to curse him, he increased the intensity of the vibrator. Then he leaned down and blew air on my nipples. I screamed and my eyes rolled back in my head as I came and came and came for him. This was one of the longest orgasm since the beginning of this toture. When I could focus my eyesight again, I saw him above me. His neck and chest muscles flexed, his skin shining with sweat. He spread his knees and began to jack off his cock. “You like to watch me, don’t you?” This vision of him only increased my torment. “Can’t, no more, please Rome.” “Be a good girl, and tell me what I want to hear.” He reach for the vibrator again. “Don’t make me do this, baby.” “N-no, por favor!” “Then tell me! Why are you so bloody determined?” “Rome, please?” “Woman, you will tell me why!” “Because!” “Because, Damn it, answer me!” “When this ends, I want to be left in one piece!” There. I’d said it. “You want your heart in one piece?
His eyes grew lively. “What are you and the Russian going to do?”“Spend the afternoon by the pool, grilling out on the deck. Later, he’ll take me running on the beach. I’m making margaritas and some lemon drops, if he's nice we'll do more than that”Roman swept me into his arms and walked to the bedroom. “Fine. You’re excused from shopping.” He reached around and spanked my ass while I yelped. “I won’t buy you another fucking thing—it’s so damned unpleasant.”I shuddered in his arms. “What are you going to do to me?”“All this talk about food and margaritas has my mouth watering for my favorite treat. . . .”A couple of hours later, I’d been grinning, stretching on the bed when he threw something to me as a wrapped present.“What is it?” I tore into it. I swallowed.He’d gotten me.A scarf and some mittens and a cute headwarmer.Russia is a cold country and I'm going to Russia.••••••••••••••“I can’t believe I’m going to Russia!” I said when Roman’s jet was forty thousand feet
The look Roman gave me told me he’d allowed me off the hook. “Dimitri was about to be killed for the murder of a bravta lord's daughter ; he was the protection detail supposed to protect the child.” “Por Dios. How did you know?” “I was blackmailing the man who ordered the hit. I struggled with the decision to save Dimitri or not. It was my first major blackmail scheme, it was a show no emotions deal and I was ready to collect many favors from a powerful man. In the end, I sent the pictures of the evidence to Dimitri’s company. Then Dimitri turned around—and somehow tracked down me, pointing out my weaknesses , he then asked for employment, he asked to work for me. How could I say no?” “That doesn’t seem very heartless.” “Perhaps not entirely heartless, then? I saved his life once, and he’s protected mine ever since. Losing that deal was the best investment I ever made.” With a heated glance, he said, “At least until you came along.” “Ha,what are you thinking for a wedding gift
I woke up with a kiss behind my ear. The ticklish feeling brought me back from my deep sleep, and I let out a yawn. I moaned, stretching out as the sunlight shone brightly behind my closed eyes. I could feel its warmth basting my face, and I smiled.My eyes opened, only to see Roman sitting next to me on the bed. He was already dressed in his suit,looking good as usual, his hair a little wet with a few strands sticking to his forehead.“Good morning, we landed a while ago but I didn't want to wake you up, but we are home in Kazan Russia already” he murmured.gently brushing my hair away from my face as he peppered my face with little kisses.“Good morning,” I whispered back sleepily and smiling right back at him.“I’ll see you at breakfast,” Roman said as he got up and walk out.Nodding, I watched him smile as he walked out of the room. When the door closed behind him, I turned around and sighed into my pillow. Today was going to be a good I had a feeling about it.Today was t
“Ana is a student, and she’s an excellent cook,” Roman informs them. “I squeeze his thigh to say thank you for answering on my behalf.“If you like cooking, I’d love to show you some Russian recipes I got from Roman’s grandmother,” Gloria mentions.I smile widely. “I’d love that.”Even though I still feel awkward because I’ve just met Roman ’s family, I’m hopeful we’ll get along. Knowing how important his uncle is to him not so sure about his relationship with his aunt, the last thing I want is to drive a wedge between them.Gloria starts telling me about all the traditional dishes she wants to show me while the men discuss business. Feeling excited, I nod as the last of the tension leaves my body.As we were done with the cooking I feel a little dizzy “ Rome, Gloria I'm heading upstairs if, you don't mind I think the jetlag is getting to me” I say.I felt Roman ’s eyes on my back as I headed upstairs, but I didn’t look back. In the room, I fell on my bed with my face buried in m
“Fuck,” he swore.Everything happened so fast. First, I was falling, and then I wasn’t anymore.But as soon as I had straightened myself, I heard a splash of water and a spring of curses coming from Roman . Quickly turning around, I faced the stream, only to let out a booming laugh when I saw him.He was sprawled in the water, completely wet, his face a mask of astonishment.I quickly lost my smile when I saw his face turn expressionless. Standing frozen in my spot, I bit on my lips nervously, scared that he was going to be angry. There was only silence for a few moments.But then a sudden laugh startled me, and I jumped slightly.I stared at Roman , shocked. He was laughing. Roman Petrov was laughing unless he was laughing sarcastically.I had never seen or heard him laugh before. He was always a preoccupied man, his face composed and hard. Occasionally, he would have a full smile on his face but never a laugh if taking a picture for a magazine or something political.Such a joy
“I’m the only one who gets to.” As he thrust, his bare hand cupped my pussy. When he covered my lips, his cock moved between his fingers. “This is mine.” He bumped into me, and I whimpered. “It belongs to me.” His hold was like steel, the heel of his palm grinding against my clit. “I own this. I own you.”Possessive, brutal.I melted for him.As he worked my body with short snaps of his hips and that hot, possessive hand, he nuzzled my ear. “If I were a cunning man, I would’ve trapped you with my child.” His other hand spread out over my belly. “I imagined it. You big with my baby. These breasts full of milk.” He squeezed one, then the other. “My cock grew so stiff, I came in three strokes.”“Roman!” He’d masturbated to that fantasy about me? The mere idea made my pussy tighten around his length. “Dios mío.” With a cry, I ground my clit against his tight grip.He slammed into me and shaking that maddening hold on my pussy. “You’re close, aren’t you? I want you to come hard
Even though Vladamir is no longer the head of the Petrov territory in Russia, he’s still part of the Bravta. He’s still dangerous.Over the past weeks, I’ve been bought into a false sense of security. I finally felt safe and no longer on guard that people like my father would hurt me.The last thing I expected was Roman’s family bribing me to leave him. Sure, I got ready for the awkwardness of meeting them, but not this bribery. “Ahhh…” My eyebrow furrow together, and I place a hand over my tight stomach. “I can’t leave Roman.”Roman will hunt me down and kill me if I dare betray him. I mean, he'll look for me like the last time! What Vladamir is asking of me is so much worse.I’ve also fallen in love with Roman, and I don’t want to leave him.“The money is enough to buy a ticket back to America. Go, and if I find out you contacted Roman, I’ll make you wish you were never born,” he threatens me.“Roman will never believe I left him,” I whisper, the shock making my voice shaky.
ANAI wake with a strange sensation.It’s morning, and the other side of the bed is cold, and empty and without Roman.I sit up instantly, my senses awake and on high alert.I make my way downstairs, where I can hear a muffled voices coming from Roman’s study. I move down the hall to listen.“Yes,” he says. “That’s right, the arrest warrant has been withdrawn.”Gloria.My heart begins to beat hard. Why did he have the arrest warrant removed?Nobody is looking for her.“You know what to do,” he says calmly.My eyes widen.I push the open the door in a rush to get to Roman.When he steps back, shocked to see me. He’s fully dressed in his crisp suit, ready for work.“What are you doing here?” he asks sharply.I stare at him, confused. “What are you doing?” I ask rhetorically He marches down the hall. His overnight bag is packed by the front door, not looking like it's filled with clothes.“where are you going?” I say as I run after him.“I have to go away for work for a few day
We walk out to the front of the house. “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Petrov,” Zoran says, holding the back door open. Roman takes my hand to help me in.“Hello, Zoran.” I smile as I get into the back seat, and Roman gets in behind me. The door closes, and we sit in silence throughout the drive.I get vivid recollections of how much Roman Petrov could infuriate me back in the day. Nobody could wind me up like him.Nothing’s changed.Calm, calm, keep fucking calm.The car pulls up at the ballroom. We get out, and Roman takes my hand. We fake more smiles and walk through the crowd as if we are the happiest couple in the world.“Where are our seats?” Roman whispers, passing me a champagne from a passing tray.“What’s wrong, darling?” I whisper, taking a sip. “Tired of holding my hand?”His angry eyes flick over to me. “I am, actually.”I glare at him, our eyes locked. “Please, don’t act happy on my behalf.”“Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve acted happy now, would it?”Adrenaline begins t
ANA I sit in the cafe waiting for Callie.I keep going over what Roman said to me before he left. You made me do it alone.I hate that he sees it like that.He had an issue and I locked him out and made him face the problem alone. But our sex life was never the problem.But I did make him feel like the problem was only his?Then, being the stubborn woman that I am, I got so resentful that I locked him out of our room in return?Both of us not speaking and sleeping in separate beds. I exhale heavily. Well, I’m too angry at his stage to even think about it anymore. I’m not letting him turn this around on me.I haven’t done anything wrong.I never once said that I was blaming him for this.I only think that he should have told me the facts at the time in which they happened. And how dare he say that I’m making him face this alone when it was his choice not to tell me about it or involve me in the first place? He chose to do this alone, not the other way around.Seriously, is ope
ANAMy stomach rolls.It makes me feel sick.I think for a moment.I'm still waiting for her to threaten us with a child.It's just been a few months since we saw her.She could be one of those women who don't show a bump in the early stages of pregnancy.Or the child could be for Vladamir.I just need it to be Vladamir's child.But Rome won't abandon his nephew either nor would I want him to.Can a DNA paternity test be taken while pregnant or do you have to wait for the baby to be born?Hmm. I grab my phone and type into Google:Can a paternity test be taken while still pregnant?DNA testing can be completed as early as 9 weeks along. Technological advancements mean there's little risk to mom or baby. If establishing paternity is something that you need to do, non-invasive prenatal paternity test is a blood test that analyzes fetal DNA found in a pregnant woman's blood during the first trimester.Shit, it’s just a blood test. That should be easy enough.I type into Google:Can a pre
ANAThe car pulls into the garage around 7:00 p.m.Roman hasn’t called me once today. That’s a first. I know he’s probably busy being pulled from point to point, but with everything that’s going on, I would have thought.I made dinner and had a glass of wine.I feel unusually nervous to see him.My heart beats as loud as it can when Roman comes into my line of sight.“Hello.” I smile.“Hi, Moya Roza.” He bends and kisses me, and then pulls immediately out of my arms.Oh.He sits on the chair and rests his elbows on his thighs. His head hanging low, and he looks at the floor, he looks exhausted.The hairs on the back of my neck stand up as I watch him. Something’s up.“I called her,” he says quietly.I frown. “Who?”“On the night I was drugged, my call log shows that I made an eight-minute call to Gloria’s number,” he says softly.Emotion rushes through me.His eyes rise to meet mine. “And there were other things, I saw when I woke up.”My heartbeat pumps loudly in my ears. “
ANA“Good morning love.” I smile at him.He walks over and hugs me so tightly.it's a wonder I didn't break anything.He kisses me so nicely, his lips hovering over mine.He doesn’t say anything, but what is there to say? With no one ready to hash out our feelings.Both of us are unsure what’s going to happen with Gloria, the loose cannon still on the run. We are both on pins and needles.I want to fight and yell and cry like a child at him for getting us into this position with her.But then I remember that he was only trying to protect me, and my past is just as sordid as his.He went to that club… but I worked there.And nobody else besides the two of us would ever believe that he was my first client. My only client.He has the weight of the world on his shoulders.And I’m not adding to his stress levels, no matter how selfish I want to be and put the blame on him, because he's the cause of this problem.I know I can’t.“I made you a coffee,” I say nervously.“Thanks.” He rol
ANA The police were here for hours going through everything. A warrant has been put out on her. The questioning was in depth, and I imagine it was very stressful for Roman. Then the public relations team arrived, and the house was full of people who worked for Roman. They organized the statement that was to be released to the press. While Dolores ran around handing out refreshments to them I just watched from the stairs trying to process my hurt. It was a whirlwind of activity down there, and I should have perhaps been involved. After all, I was the person who solved half the case. But I couldn’t. I stayed upstairs and cried like a baby to Callie on the phone, she wants to come over to be with me but I rather be alone I just needed someone to talk to for a moment. I feel so alone and compelled to stay out of sight tonight. I didn’t want to see anyone. And perhaps, if I’m being completely honest about the whole drama. I’m embarrassed that my husband is being accused
ROMAN “To the house.” I tell Dimitri while looking at Ana beside me.“Yes, sir.” The car pulls out of the garage, and I reach over and to take Ana’s hand but she flicks me away. My heart drops.She’s furious.Who could blame her?What Gloria saidOh no, my stomach rolls.I feel sick.I can't even remember if that ever happened, but she's delusional who knows what she would come up with but for the fact, she has already gotten Ana to believe her lies.The car weaves through the heavy London traffic. My mind goes back to that morning in the hotel in Russia when I woke with no memory.I see the silver wine chiller and the two crystal glasses.I remember the scent of perfume on my sheets. At the time, I was terrified, but then as soon as Dimitri said he walked me back to my room, I dismissed my fears. I put it down to two glasses being delivered as standard practice. I'm pretty sure it wasn't used and the scent on the sheets was a strong washing powder, but now…Why didn’t I get d
“Give me the money and get out,”Gloria screeches.“He’s not giving you a single fucking penny!” I snapped at her. I glared at Roman, angry he wouldn't trust me enough to tell me what was going on, and he rolled his lips.“She’s got a video of us at the Auction house that night.” Roman replies frustrated.“Ha liess.” I huff out looking at Gloria's sneering face.“She hasn’t got shit.”“Yes, I have. I’m going to the press. Now get out, I'm talking to him, you whore.” She tries to snatch the bag of money from him.“Do not give her that fucking bag!” I yell out to Roman.“She’s lying.”“How do you know?”“Because I have the footage,” I snap at him as his head whips towards me.“I’m the one who hacked the system. I wiped all the footage of the two of us months ago, so you can go to Hell, you scheming bitch, fucking hell.”Roman and Gloria’s eyes widen.“You hacked the system?” Roman whispers, shocked.“Of course, I did. I wiped everything with you on it.” I snap, adrenaline is co
