THE ASSASSIN IN HIS BED Chapter 36
So why did my chest ache with a pain that had nothing to do with vengeance?The look on his face kept pulling at me. That raw, unguarded agony. It unsettled me in a way I didn’t understand and cracked something open where rage was supposed to live. I had spent so long imagining him as a monster that I wasn’t prepared for this... this broken, human version of him.And I hated it.Because all I wanted in that moment was to make it go away. To wipe that look from his face and replace it with the cold, intimidating mask I knew. The one that made him easy to hate. Easy to destroy.This version? This one made my chest hurt.I didn’t know how to comfort men. That had never been my role.What I knew was how to undo them; how to unravel them with pleasure or end them with death. Those were the only languages I’d ever been taught.And since killing him wasn’t an option right now, I reached for the other weapon in my arsenal.My bare feet carried me across the rug, avoiding the spreading dark po

"You have to believe me, Pakhan. Come on. You’ve known me over ten years. Ten fucking years of loyalty. I’ve bled for you, taken bullets, buried bodies—whatever you asked. She’s been here... what? Three weeks? A month tops? You really think I’d lie to your face after everything?"He sounded desperate and his voice cracked at the edges. I almost felt sorry for him.Almost.Dominic didn’t answer right away. Instead he turned those dark eyes on me. "What do you have to say for yourself, Raven?"I took a shaky step closer to him. Not too close—I didn’t want to look like I was trying to seduce my way out of this—but close enough that he could see the tears still shining on my cheeks. I made my voice small and cracked, the way people sound when they’re about to break."I’ve never lied to you," I said quietly. "Not once. Everything I’ve told you so far? It checked out, right? The brother, the college, the way I showed up here… all of it was real. I get it if you pick him. You’ve known him fo

Starlet was perched on the edge of her bed, watching him with wide, curious eyes. Sergei’s head swiveled towards me as I entered. Relief flashed across his stony features. He cleared his throat. "Miss Raven," he rumbled, his voice too loud for the quiet room. "The boss. He wishes to see you. Now." He didn’t say it like a request. It was a statement of fact, an inevitability. The week of quiet was over. The ghost had decided to reappear. *** My heart was slamming hard against my ribs as I followed Sergei down the hallway. Why the hell did Dominic want to see me? After a full week of nothing, was this it? Was I about to get fired? Thrown out on my ass? Or something worse? I pushed those thoughts away, forcing myself to breathe steady. No point in freaking out before I even knew what was up. We stopped at the familiar dark wood to his office. Sergei gave me a quick nod, motioning for me to go in. He stayed outside, pulling the door shut behind me with a soft click that echoed in m

When I finally got out, my skin pruned but relaxed in a good way. I wrapped myself in a towel and padded back to the room. My panties were laid out on my bed with a pad already stuck in. Next to them, my comfiest sleeping shorts and a baggy tee, folded neatly. Starlet was sitting cross-legged on her own bed, pretending to be very interested in her phone. She peeked over. "Feel any better?" I stood there, dripping on the rug, trying to calm my racing heart. A weird, warm feeling bloomed in my chest, right next to the usual ball of anxiety and anger. It was… nice. Someone had done something nice. For me. "What's this?" I asked, hiding the warmth in my voice. She smiled sheepishly. "I... uh, went through your suitcase. It's still unpacked, right? Figured you'd need comfy stuff. And the pad—thought it might help. I didn't mean to snoop, just wanted to make it easy." No one has ever done something like this for me. But I didn't say anything, I just nodded and dressed quickly. T

He stared at me as if I’d started speaking another language. "What is with you? This fucking attitude… is it the goddamn hormones? Are you really that cranky because of your fucking period?"Every cell in my body screamed to let loose, to unleash the torrent of curses and accusations. I pictured Haley’s face. I pictured Josh, smiling, clueless and swallowed it all.I breathed, in and out, slowly. "I’m just tired. I want to go.""You’re ungrateful," he stated, his own anger returning, laced with something that sounded almost like betrayal. "I scouted you from that shithole club. You begged me to bring you here. I put you on the top floor in weeks—a promotion others wait years for. I gave you a weekend off on your second fucking day. I don't usually do that."And there it was. The opening.A sick, reckless compulsion took over. The need to wound him back, to shatter his arrogant control."You didn’t give me that weekend off out of kindness," I said, my voice eerily calm. "You did it for

Raven's POVI sat there in that damn room, the same one Dominic had dragged me to last time after the attack. The walls felt like they were closing in, all sleek and cold, with that faint smell of leather and whatever expensive cologne these guys drowned themselves in. An hour. A full freaking hour I'd been stuck here, staring at the door waiting for that bastard to show his face. I tried to leave—three times, actually. Each time, Sergei just shook his head and muttered something about orders from the boss. "Stay put until he gets here," he'd say, like I was some kid in timeout.My blood was boiling. I didn't want to wait for Dominic. Hell, showing up today had taken everything I had. If it wasn't for the mission—the one thing keeping me grounded, the need to end him for what he did—I would've grabbed my stuff, Josh's too, and bolted. But running now was pointless. I was on his radar, and worse, so was Josh. How the hell had I let that slip? Telling the devil himself about my brothe
