Eliza
I can still taste Lev on the back of my tongue as I take a sip of my water. The ice jingles in the glass, but it’s not loud enough to drown out the hammering of my heart. It hasn’tslowed down since I felt him release in my mouth and I realized I liked it.I’ve done stuff like that before with Noah, but he wasn’t clean like Lev is. He didn’t taste good. It was bitter and unappealing, but Lev was totally different. It turned me on when I tasted him, and the groans that rumbled out of his chest gave me goosebumps.If he asked me to do it again, I’d crawl right up to his seat and blow him in front of everyone here. It’s so unlike me, but things are changing so fast that I don’t know who I am anymore. This is my opportunity to remake myself, and I’m quickly moving in a dangerous direction.Do I want to be a classy artist living big in New York?Or do I want to be some Russian millionaire’s arm candy?

Lev The rain is coming down so hard today that I can barely see an inch in front of me. Even the short walk from the car to the entrance to my building is hazardous becauseof it, but I manage to make it to the door without tripping over any curbs or running into any pedestrians.I shake the rain off my coat. It’s been soaked so many times this month that it’s starting to smell. I’ll have to take it to the dry cleaners. Wool isn’t supposed to get wet so often like this.I can’t say the same for Eliza. She’s been soaked every time I see her, and the sex only gets better as we understand each other’s bodies more. We’ve been taking things slower in the bedroom while going so fast it’s making both of our heads spin.I don’t even want to know what Valentin would have to say if he discovered I was spending every single evening with Eliza. She has absolutely nothing to do with the Bratva and I love

Eliza I knew there was a catch. Lev couldn’t just be a normal guy. He’s too perfect, too rich, and the sharpness in his eyes tells me he has experience with danger. But what kind ofdanger, he seems reluctant to tell me.I’m going to find out, though. Breaking down my door and rushing me to his home in the middle of a rainstorm has spurred my suspicion of him to a critical point. Either I find out what he’s up to, or it’s over between us.And I don’t want to end things like this, not when everything has been going so well. The money, the sex, the passion… I’m not ready to give all that up and move back to my hometown as a failure.I can already picture Noah’s smirk, like he knew all along that I wouldn’t amount to anything, like I had to end up with him again.Fuck, no. I’m not doing that, but I still need to figure out what the hell is going on with Lev.I sit with my arms crossed, partially becaus

Lev Eliza isn’t going to let me off the hook so easily. She might come from a small town, but she has a big mind and an even bigger suspicion of me. I’m going to have tobreak things down for her in a way that doesn’t terrify her, and that means avoiding the topic of the Bratva and money laundering entirely.That should be simple enough. I just have to give Valentin and everyone else a heads-up that Eliza isn’t tuned in to the real nature of our business, but they’re used to keeping secrets.I let out a long sigh as she works her elbows into my shoulders again. With her entire weight on me, I can feel her working out the knots I should’ve taken care of months ago. I’ve just been too busy between the Family and art galleries to allow myself any time to relax.But with Eliza, things are different. She reminds me that there’s more to this life than money, power, and sex. There’s something else going on, somethi

Eliza That’s cute,” Lev says as I walk out of the bathroom in one of his oversized white t-shirts.“I look like a ghost,” I say, hurrying toward the bed. He grins. “Very spooky.”“Boo!” I exclaim as I jump into the bed.I land on his chest, and he grabs me, rolling me over and pinning me down. “I caught a ghost. Now what?”“If you catch a ghost, you’re supposed to snuggle it. Those are the rules,” I say, hoping he won’t kick me out of his bed for being too goofy. He seems to like it, though, even if he’s a little unsure of how to respond.I figure he needs a break from being so serious all the time. The stress I rubbed out of his shoulders this evening was very telling.“If I snuggle you, I might squish you,” Lev says, even as he pulls me close.I melt into the warmth and power of his chest. I can hear his heart beating faster than it usually does, reminding me that he’s just as ne

Lev I toss my keys on the kitchen island as I come home. I smell paint, and it’s been growing more intense no matter how many windows I open. Eliza has started painting all thetime, and I’m starting to get concerned.After an entire week indoors, she’s painted anything and everything in the penthouse, including the toilet. I’ve been in and out often, but my concerns about Vanya keeps me from taking her with me on my trips.I hate to see her get like this, but her safety is more important than anything else.Luckily, I have some very good news that should cheer her up considerable.“Hey, sunshine, what are you painting today?” I’ve taken to calling her sunshine because her hair looks so bright and golden when she’s standing by the window painting. She lights up the whole room.Eliza peeks out from behind her canvas, a slight frown on her face and a paintbrush in her hand. “I’m trying to get the deta

ElizaT he drive to Asher’s gallery feels too quick. Every moment I get to spend outside of Lev’s penthouse is much more exciting than it should be. I really can’t standto be inside all the time. My mind needs stimulation, and I’m simply not getting enough of it there.Even in my small town back home, there were always new places to check out, new people to talk to. Even if you end up knowing half the population, that’s still half that you can still get to know.The only thing I’m getting to know in Lev’s place is how many fibers are in his carpet.That’s why I’m slow to get out of the car once we arrive at Asher’s gallery, even with Lev ushering me along. It’s also why I drag my feet and take slow breaths once I’m outside, basking in the last rays of afternoon sun before it disappears behind the tall buildings surrounding us.I need fresh air. I get it in Lev’s apartment, but it’s tainted by the sc

Lev Nothing else in this world matters but Eliza. Any misplaced anger and frustration I felt toward her has dissolved into desperation. I need to save her. If I loseher, I’ll never be able to forgive myself.I wouldn’t deserve to be forgiven. The best thing that could possibly happen to me would be for my own life to be taken as well, so at least I can apologize to her if there’s a life after this.But I’m not going to let that happen.I jump out of the car, using my body to shield Eliza from the flying bullets as I charge toward her. They’re coming from the building across the street, judging by the volume and echo, so my best bet is to get her away from the bank and back toward the car. It’s bulletproofed, making it a far better option for cover.Eliza’s hazel eyes are wide with terror as I rip her away from the shattered brick, barking orders that even I can’t hear over the deafening noise of gunshot

Eliza The alarms that should be going off in my head at Lev’s admission to being in the Mafia are silent. Instead, a feeling of calm washes over me because everythingmakes sense.I should be terrified, but I’m not. I just have more questions.“Why didn’t you tell me about this before?” I ask, finally sliding onto the couch as Lev had requested. I figure it’s better to create some kind of understanding instead of continuing to argue, especially since he’s opening up.He stands beside me, leaning on the couch but refusing to join me. Maybe he’s still scared that I’m going to punch him.And maybe I will, depending on what he says.Lev laces his fingers together, looking down at his feet as he thinks. Even though I’m mad at him, I still find him unbelievably attractive, especially when he carried me on his shoulder like I weighed nothing. His power is intoxicating, and it’s all I can do not to
