HAZEL

By the time people have finished with the clothes, I mean really finished, the presidential suite looks like a fashion battlefield after an apocalypse.

Garment bags are empty. Hangers are bare. The staff keep thanking me as I’ve personally solved their financial problems for the next decade. I lie back on the chaise lounge in a silk robe that may very well cost more than my first apartment, eyes closed, while warm oil is worked into my shoulders.

“This pressure okay?” one of the therapist

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    To Marry You

    AXEL I smiled at her."Axel!" Kat snapped.I didn't look at her.Vasilisa's hands shook harder."Why are you doing this to me?""Because I don't love you, and I will not marry you.""You're making me do this!" She snapped, then pretended to hold back tears."No, Vasilisa. You're doing this to yourself."Her face twisted with anger. For one terrible second, I thought she was going to pull the trigger. Then Damien moved. It happened so quickly that I barely had time to register it. He lunged toward his daughter, reaching for the arm holding the gun.Vasilisa screamed. The gun went off. The sound exploded through the room, followed by Kat's scream and the sudden crash of something hitting the floor.I felt a sharp sting near my shoulder, but I didn't immediately understand what had happened. My ears were ringing, and everyone seemed to be moving at once. Damien grabbed Vasilisa's wrist while his men rushed forward.I looked down at myself..... Blood. A dark stain was spreading across my

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    No Longer Mine

    AXEL They say there's nothing as ugly as a woman scorned. I had never paid much attention to the saying, but standing there with a gun pressed against my back, I was beginning to understand why it existed.I didn't turn around. I didn't make any sudden movements. I simply stood there, waiting to see what she would do next.Would she pull the trigger?Would she make some ridiculous demand and expect me to obey?Or had she finally lost whatever little sense she had left?I had no idea. So I stayed still and let her decide what came next."Don't move!"Vasilisa's voice sounded different now. There was no sweetness in it, no desperate attempt to convince me that she would make a good wife. The woman who had been begging me to marry her a few minutes ago had disappeared, replaced by someone who seemed perfectly willing to put a bullet in my back.Kat had gone completely silent beside me. I could feel the tension radiating from her, and I knew she was trying to figure out what to do withou

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    Careful

    AXEL "You're okay with being a trophy wife? Paraded around and shown off?" I asked her. "You're okay with being a baby machine, opening your legs on my command? You're okay with all the things I will do to you and other women, as long as you get the title?"Vasilisa looked as if she was about to explode."Are you seriously making fun of me right now?""Why would I do that, princess?""Stop calling me that!""Why? I thought you liked being treated like royalty."Kat burst out laughing, and I had to fight the smile threatening to spread across my face.Vasilisa's gaze swept around the room, toward her father and the two guards still standing in front of the door. She seemed to remember where she was and how many people were watching us."We need to talk. Excuse us," she said through clenched teeth, reaching for my arm.I moved before she could touch me."Careful, Vasilisa. Like I said, don't ever put your hands on me."Her hand froze in midair."Whatever you have to say, you can say it

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    The Only Woman

    AXEL Damien Morozov watched his daughter with a strange expression, one that told me he was as surprised by her performance as I was. But the surprise quickly faded, replaced by irritation.“Vasilisa,” he said sharply. “What are you doing here?”She pulled away from me just enough to turn toward him, but she kept one hand gripping the front of my jacket, as if she was afraid letting go would end me.“Dad, please! You can't do this!” Her voice trembled as she looked between us. “You can't threaten Axel just because you're angry with him. I know he's made mistakes, but I love him. I don't want anything to happen to him.”I almost laughed. Almost.This woman had spent the last several days behaving as though she held all the cards to our relationship while I followed around doing her bidding. She had shown up at my house uninvited, interrupted a private moment between Hazel and me, and then demanded that I attend this ridiculous party, acting all high and mighty.Now she was standing in

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    What The Hell

    AXEL For the first time since we'd entered the room, I saw something besides anger in Damien's eyes. He was calculating. Trying to figure out what I wanted and how much trouble I was prepared to cause to get it.I leaned back in my chair."You gave your word." He finally said."And I intend to honour my obligations. But don't confuse honouring an agreement with surrendering control of my life."His eyes narrowed."You should be careful, Moretti. There are consequences for breaking agreements with my family.""I know. That's why I haven't broken this one." I let the words settle between us before adding, "Yet."Kat made a small sound standing beside me. It might have been a cough, but I knew her well enough to recognise that she was fighting the urge to laugh.Damien didn't find it amusing. He rose from his chair and placed both hands on the desk."Let me make something clear to you. My daughter will not be made a fool of by a man who thinks he can do whatever he wants simply because

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    Respect

    AXEL Damien led the way out of the ballroom and down the hallway Corridors.The farther we went, the tighter Kat's hand gripped mine. She kept looking around, but there was no one else in sight. It was just the five of us, with Damien leading the way, Kat and me in the middle, and his two men following behind us.We turned a corner, and he finally stopped in front of a room. Damien opened the door and walked inside. I knew this place belonged to him, even if the ownership wasn't officially in his name. I also knew he did most of his business here, so I wasn't surprised. I'd expected something like this, although I hadn't thought he'd bring us into his office.Kat and I walked in together, still holding hands. Damien walked around the table, made himself comfortable in his seat, and looked at us. Kat and I remained standing. I was a gentleman, and I knew basic etiquette. You didn't just take a seat in someone else's office without being invited to do so.Damien looked at us once, then

  • THE DON'S CAPTIVE MISTRESS    The Kitchen

    HAZELNatasha was also a dead end. She didn’t like me, and she wasn’t subtle about it. That meant my only option was one of the maids, but not just any maid. One who had access. One who moved quietly between rooms, between people. Someone who heard things. Someone who saw things.I needed an ally.

    HAZELThe words barely leave Axel's mouth before his face crashes down onto mine.It’s not a question.He’s not asking.He’s not waiting for permission. He kisses me like he’s starving.Hard. Rough. Desperate.His mouth consumes mine, all heat and fury and hunger, as if the last three days never ha

    HAZELI run upstairs into my room after my conversation with Remo and cry. Not quietly. Not politely. A full-blown cry..... I can’t believe how stupid I was. How much of an idiot, a fool, I had been. I actually thought what happened between Axel and me meant something. It should have, shouldn’t it

    AXELThe minute Remo walks into the penthouse, I know he’s about to give me another headache.I don’t even look up right away.“What’s that smile for?” I ask.I know Remo. And I know that smile.I don’t like it.He just shrugs. “Nothing.”“Anything you found out about Morozov?”“No. I’m still diggi
