LOGINThis book is officially over. I can't believe I finished it. There were times I wanted to give up. Times I did at some point, but for some reason, I always found the energy to push through. I want to thank everyone who gave this book a chance. Without you, this book wouldn't be as successful as it
“Nikolai, I- ouch” She takes a step towards me and then stops, her face twisting into a grimace. I'm at her side in an instant, my hands around her shoulder, steadying her, “What's wrong?” I ask, my gaze scanning her carefully. My eyes land on the thin ragged line on her knee. The edges are raw, a
To be honest I wouldn't blame her if she did. She’d just seen me torture information out of a man. A man who deserves every bit of pain I dished out to him and more but still.

"You're breathtaking, Solnyshko" I murmur, leaning my head down, my stubble grazing her cheek. "Absolyutno bezuprechnyy" (Absolutely flawless) Her chest rises and falls in quick succession, and a faint blush stains her face. "You're just saying that because you want to sleep with me" She breathes,
Not long now. Just as I am about to explode, his fingers slow to an agonizing pace, pulling me back to earth just as I am about to see stars. “Nikolai”, I whine, tears starting to gather at the corner of my eyes, “I'm so close. Please” I wiggle my hips, desperate for the pleasure only he can pro
I'd be lying if I said the prospect of going further than kissing with him hadn't excited me, but I knew deep down I wanted to keep that part of myself for someone I loved or at least cared about, and Nikolai wasn't that person. He could be. The tiny voice in my brain nags and I bite down on my
He smirks at me then walks over to the part of the closet where his clothes are lined and pushes a button by the side.
