•Evangeline•╌─═❁═─╌I pressed the phone to my ear and sighed, shaking my head. "No..." "Evangeline..." his tone was almost scolding. "I can't, Nikolai" "It's just a fucking charity event, I can't show up alone" I lifted a shoulder. "Why would I accompany you?" "Because you are my wife, whether you like it or not. Do you want other women to accompany me?" he snapped. I pinched the bridge of my nose, exhaling tiredly. "Who accompanied you to these kinds of events when I wasn't here?" "No one..." "Yeah, right...""I have pictures to prove my innocence" I could easily pick up the playful hint to his words. "Then go alone again." "I can't..." "Why not?!" "BECAUSE I'M TRYING..." he yelled and that made me pull away from the phone. "It's fucking difficult but I am fucking trying, Evangeline. I'm trying to earn you..." his volume dropped too low at the end of his sentence. A hint of a smile crept over my lips. "So, it had nothing to do with Lorenzo being in my captivity?" "Swee
•Nikolai•╌═❁═╌"You needed my help with shopping?!" Bianca's mouth dropped to the floor as she gawked at me. I gave her a hard look. "Why are you acting like shopping is the most illegal thing I have ever done?!" She looked a little uneasy. "It feels illegal..." I sighed. "I'm trying to pursue my wife, Bianca and you happen to be the only person who really knows her, who knows what she likes or dislikes" A sudden realization that I don't even know her that well crossed my mind. She was always the one to ask me questions about myself but I never made an effort to know her in return. I looked around at the line of outlets with sparkly fucking gowns, heels, and shit. "You don't even know her likes and dislikes?" her disapproving tone pissed me off. I shot her a hard glare that shut her up. "If you want to live to see another fucking day, you will shut the fuck up and help me find the perfect fucking dress for her for the annual fucking charity ball" "Okay... geez! Calm down." Sh
•Nikolai•╌═❁═╌"Is that Chase Nickelson?" she asked, with stars illuminating in her eyes.I followed her gaze and saw the up-and-coming actor Chase Nickelson socializing with the people. The only reason he was here is that he owe me his career and his life. I'm the one who made him a star. Just pulled some strings and made his life. "Yeah..." She gasped, "I love him..." I turned to her. "What?" "God! He is perfect!" she squealed like a little girl. I lifted a shoulder. "He's alright..." "I love his movies..." "Evangeline, do you want him to die?" A frown appeared on her forehead and she looked up at me. "What?" "If you kept on praising him like that, I might get jealous, and trust me, you don't want to see me get jealous," I told her bluntly. She squinted her eyes at me before a devilish smile pulled on her lips. "And why would you be jealous?" "Because you are mine..." Her smile wavered and she nodded. "Right..." she mumbled under her breath with a disappointing hint to he
•Evangeline•╌─═❁═─╌"You betrayed me... again" His eyes had darkened, and a vicious expression contorted his face into a completely different person. Nikolai wasn't there anymore, it was the monster. The monster; who was ready to shed blood of anyone who stood in his way. And right now I was his prime target. A splatter of blood sprayed over my face as a man was shot within a foot of me. Hid face was indistinguishable due to the gleaming red blood splattered across it.His body hit the ground before my eyes. The glass windows shattered all around us, I placed both of my hands over my ears, ducking down. Bullets were splattering off the ground all around me. People were screaming, running around, hiding under the tables. It was chaos. I looked back to the spot Nikolai was standing a second ago, no one was there. He had left, Scott had left. I looked towards the door and saw Nikolai's soldiers, taking covers; their guns loaded up. Then it was a literal bloodbath. My breath got s
•Evangeline•╌─═❁═─╌I took a long breath as a tear slid down my cheek dropping to the ground. The barrel of the gun dug into my forehead harshly. His knee between my chest was making it difficult to breathe. My hair was all wet, and the back of my head was bleeding profusely, I took a deep breath but it hurt my ribcage. I exhaled, inhaled again, realizing I was scared. My head swam; I tried to return to reality. My stomach tightened, but i can't just give up, not like this. I gasped, my throat in agony, with blood draining from my mouth. He had banged my head against the floor so many times that it was getting difficult to comprehend what was going on around me. I still tried to fight back, my hand raised sluggishly, slick with blood as I tried to grab him. He slapped my hand away, laughing at my pain. "I don't want to kill you, Evangeline. I did care about you for a short amount of time in between. But you need to understand that it was not your place, I was ten, ten years old wh
•Nikolai•╌═❁═╌"Evangeline..." Scott lightly tapped her face. "Come on, sweet cheeks, you're stronger than that" his voice was desperate, pleading. My feet were glued to the ground, my mind had stopped working. My body was in complete paralysis, and my brain stuttered. I was struggling to breathe. I just fucking saw the woman I love getting shot... twice and I didn't do anything to stop it. My mind had completely shut down when the first bullet left the barrel and connected her skin. I lost her.I lost her. I lost her. I lost my wife. I didn't want her to die, no, I don't want her to die. I have no fucking idea what I will do without her. I saw him shooting her, not once but twice and I just stood there. My hands shook as I looked down at the gun in my hand, my fingers loosened around it and it dropped to the floor with a thud. I was trembling, shaking. I have never felt this way before. I have never felt this unbearable, agonizing pain in my chest before. Someone pushed me out
•Nikolai•╌═❁═╌Today marks exactly two months since I had last seen her beautiful light brown eyes. She was here but not really here. She was alive, her heart still beats, she breathes in and out, and her wounds have healed considerably. She doesn't move, she doesn't react to my touch. She just lays on the bed, ghastly pale. She lies comatose on the bed, due to blunt force trauma to the head and excessive blood loss. The bastard had cracked her head open in three places. They had to shave her head off for the stitches. If she had been conscious, I know she would have never allowed the doctors to do anything to her hair, she loves it too much to just shave it off. I'm pretty sure she is going to have a complete meltdown when she wakes up. But her hair had grown back, they weren't too long—but the short hair looked incredibly cute on her. I wish I could tell her that. For the first month, the doctors kept her in the Intensive Care Unit but then I brought her home. Our home. The doct
•Nikolai•╌═❁═╌"It's gonna be a long fucking day," I said to her, making the perfect knot of my tie. I glanced at her every second through the mirror, I tugged at my sleeves to straighten them out. "I'll come home late..." I walked toward her to place a kiss on her head. "Don't wait up for me" She blinked at me and I smiled at her. I turned to walk out of the room but got rooted to my spot and the realization dawned on me. Did she just blink at me?! My hand stilled over the doorknob, it took a few moments for it to sink in, her eyes were open and she just fucking blinked at me. My eyebrows went up to the fucking sky and I turned running back towards the bed to her side. I swallowed as I saw her eyes wide open, she wasn't staring at me or focusing on anything, her eyes moved around before settling on the ceiling, and she blinked multiple times. Then her lips slowly parted and she let out a soft breath, a little sigh. I grinned like a fucking fool as I stared at her, it felt like
