Anya’s POV

It was not until eight pm in the night that I heard a knock on the door. I opened it and met Nikolai standing out there with his suit open and his top buttons loose. I could smell the alcohol off him, he had been drinking.

“Hey,” he muttered with a little smile.

I folded my arms and said nothing. I was still not ready to talk to him.

“I just came to say thank you for coming today.” He continued.

“Well, I was just being a good wife.” I huffed in sarcasm.

“Anya,” he took a step into the room and I took one back. He paused for a second and then continued. “I meant what I said this morning, every word of it. Leaving you was intentional, but it was never to hurt you. I left to protect you, Anya.”

“Protect me? And do I not get a say in that? Let’s assume for a second that you are being honest. Why would you take a decision for my life without asking my opinion? You just stood up and walked. You didn’t leave a note or a text, no goodbyes, Nikolai.”

“I know!” he quickly interrupted

  • The Bratva Don's Forced Bride & His Secret Baby   My wife, a cheater

    Anya's POVThere was silence between us as he drove home, I had finally stopped crying. I looked at Nikolai but he wouldn't even look in my direction, he was filled with anger.Even with all the blood covering it, his knuckles had turned white from his tight grip on the steering.“Nikolai, I didn't go there to–”“I said I don't want to hear a word from you!” He interrupted, still not looking at me.At his shunning, tears began to form in my eyes again. I could only look away from him and grit my teeth.As soon as we got home, he came over to my side, grabbed my arm and dragged me out of the car.“What are you doing, Nik?” I asked, looking around at the servants who were all staring.“Shut up!” He growled.I didn't want to make this worse so I kept quiet and followed him. Immediately he got to our room, he opened the door and pushed me in.Walking inside, he slammed the door and turned to face me.“You are not leaving this room until I say so. Sit down there and think about what you ha

  • The Bratva Don's Forced Bride & His Secret Baby   Shut up Maskim

    Anya's POV My legs wobbled in fear, unable to move as Nikolai approached us with his fists clenched. I knew this might be the only opportunity I got to explain before things got out of hand.“Nik, I am begging you to calm down and let me explain, I know how this looks but it's not what you think,” I stretched my hand to stop him from doing something we would all regret.“You are damn right, because I would never think you could do something like this. How could you, Anya?”“I can explain, we have not done anything wrong. Maskim, tell him!” I immediately turned to Maskim who sat there with a smug smile on his face.I knew he was a jerk most of the time, but surely he wouldn't let me suffer for something I haven't done. At least that is what I thought.“What do you want me to tell him? It seems to me like he already knows the truth. You are on a date with me, so what?” Maskim blurted to my surprise.“What?” I muttered in disbelief. “That is not the truth, Nik.” I quickly turned back to

  • The Bratva Don's Forced Bride & His Secret Baby   Divorce the thug

    Anya's POVMaskim and I had agreed to meet at a five star restaurant by noon, I specifically chose a private one but with a non-concealed CCTV in case he doesn't stay true to his words. Unlike most men in my life who had been very predictable, with Maskim, you can never tell.I found him waiting at the table when I arrived. He got up as soon as he saw me.“Hey, you are here.” He smiled and moved to pull out a chair for me.I gave him a little smile in appreciation and sat down.“Thank you for coming, I was starting to doubt that you would actually show up.” He laughed as he sat down.I huffed. “Well, I gave you my word,” I said coldly.“Yeah, this feels like old times.” He said.“What does?”“Us, on a date, you know? Just like back then.” He smiled.I crumpled my face. “I am sorry, is that what you think this is? A date?” I asked, grabbing my bag from the table.“Wait, no, no.” He said in a rush of words. “I used the wrong word, I am sorry.”I sighed and relaxed back. “So why am I her

  • The Bratva Don's Forced Bride & His Secret Baby   My Wife is a spy

    Nikolai's POVStaring at the tied man below through the glass, I paced around the view chamber above.I was still in shock. Yes, the Vetrovs and Sokolovs have always been rivals in this city. And time and after, we have tried to score one over each other.This rivalry started with my grandfather falling out with Dmitri's father, they were both wealthy business men; the cause of their fight was now a lore, but the following generation held on to the hate and enmity.With all of this mind, I still could not believe that my father-in-law would be behind the murder of my brother.“Why did he do it?” I asked out loud as I walked from one end to the other.“We can't jump to conclusions Boss, we know he was there to meet Dmitri but nothing has been confirmed yet.” Lev reminded me.I huffed. “What else is there to make out of it? He was there to meet my brother, he never showed up and my brother got taken out by a sniper who knew he would be there. What other explanation is there?”“It could

  • The Bratva Don's Forced Bride & His Secret Baby   Investigation of Luka's Murder Part 4

    Nikolai's POV“Wake him up!” I ordered, pointing to the unconscious man tied to the chair.He was being held in a lockup room at one of our Bratva holding sites.One of my men immediately threw a bucket of cold water on the guy and he screamed, coming back to consciousness.“Welcome back, Mr. Antonio.” I said casually, signaling for a chair to be brought for me.“Where am I? What do you want from me?” He asked in panic.I pulled the chair closer and sat before him. “I think you know why we are here.”“No, whatever it is you think I did, you are wrong. I haven't done anything wrong.”“So you don't think killing my brother, Luka, was wrong?”His face went pale immediately. “Luka?” He muttered.“You remember him. Good, you should. It was three months ago that you took his life.”“No, no, no! You have it all backwards, I didn't take his life, I tried to save it!” He screamed.“The medical examiner and Mr. Bishop didn't seem to think so, and the CCTV footage from the club points you out as

  • The Bratva Don's Forced Bride & His Secret Baby   Antonio

    Nikolai's POVI was woken up by the sound of my phone ringing. I groaned and checked the time, it was still 5:00am in the morning.Anya groaned softly and turned the other way, I covered her and got out of the bed, walking to the balcony to take the call.“Hello, Mr. Vetrov. Sorry I have to call you at this time, but I have information that you need.”It was just then that my brain registered the caller. It was my man in the Russian federal security service.“What information?” I quickly demanded.“You sent me a security camera footage a few weeks back, capturing a tall blonde man; I have identified the man in the footage and his possible current location. I am sending you the details right now.”“Great! Thank you, David. I owe you one.”I was delighted to hear that news. Without wasting time.I dialed Lev's number immediately and he answered.“Lev, we have a lead on Luka. Prepare the car and bring two skilled men.” I instructed.We finally found a lead on Luka's death, and I hoped th
