MIA

The front door opens, and Lena runs inside, laughing, with Tia following. She will wake Mikhail. I take my phone from the counter and hurry to Lena. She is sitting on the floor taking off her shoes. I bend down in front of her. I touch her hand with mine. She looks up and smiles.

“Mia, Mia, I have a new drawing. Do you want to see?”

I put my finger over my lips and point to Mikhail’s bedroom. When she looks there and then back at me, I put my hands together on my cheek to show sleeping.

“Are you sleepy, Mia?”

I sigh. Talking with a little child is hard if I can’t speak. She is too small to read. I pick up my phone from the floor, write a message, and give it to Tia. She is standing next to me and watching me talk to Lena. She looks at the phone and nods, surprised.

“Daddy is sleeping, Lena. We need to be quiet.”

“Okay,” Lena whispers.

“Mia made lunch. She says if you are quiet and eat your lunch, she will teach you ballet.”

“Yes! Yes, Mia. I will be quiet. Do you really know ball

  • The Mafia King's Temporary Wife    When Danger Comes Home

    MIA An idiot smile spreads on my face as I look at the screen. I feel like a teenage girl who just got asked on a date for the first time.Mia: Yes, you can.MIKHAILI put my phone away, look at the bandage on my arm, and turn to the man tied spread-eagle to the wall.“Now, where were we?” I ask as I take a knife from the metal table. I check if it’s sharp by holding it up to the light from the bare lightbulb. Then I stand in front of the man tied up.He is already in bad shape. Saying he was not happy when Demetri and I caught him after he left his girlfriend’s house would be a big lie.“Oh yes. You were going to tell me who paid you to send one of your gang members to my wedding, and who let the jerk in. That was a really dumb mistake.”The Albanian gang leader spits on the floor.“One of the tough ones. Great.” I walk back to the table, leave the knife there, and pick up gardening scissors instead. “Let’s start with the ears, and see what happens next.”The door behind me opens wi

  • The Mafia King's Temporary Wife    Dangerously Exciting

    MIKHAILI’m buttoning Lena’s sweater when I hear soft steps coming. I look up and see Mia standing in the doorway. She looks around, walks to the dresser, takes the box with Lena’s hair ties, and looks at me with a question in her eyes. I look at the box in her hands, then back at her face. Mia sighs, points to the box, then to herself, and then to Lena.She wants to do my daughter’s hair, and that makes my heart feel tight.“Lenochka (a Russian nickname for Lena), do you want Mia to do your hair today?”Lena’s head quickly goes up and she smiles big. “Yes! I want lots of braids, like Noemi from day care. Mia, Mia, do you know how to make lots of braids? Daddy only knows pigtails.”Mia tries not to laugh at my daughter’s talking too much but can’t stop smiling. She sits on the bed next to me and motions for Lena to sit on her lap. I watch as Mia takes a small piece of hair and braids it into a thin braid.Then she moves to the next piece. She does this until there are at least fifteen

    MIAI lean back and lift my eyebrows at him. Why would that be a problem? I guess he sees the answer on my face because he nods and looks at the phone again.“Lena’s daily plan?” he asks and looks at me, a little surprised.I nod.“She wakes up at seven. Tia comes to take her to day care and brings her back around three. They eat lunch and go for a walk or to the park. Tia usually leaves around five, but she comes back in the evening to watch Lena if I have to work. Sometimes, if Tia’s granddaughters are staying with her, she takes Lena to her house for a sleepover. Like last night.”He puts the phone on the table and nods at it. “Any more questions?”I shake my head.“Okay, let’s eat.”My strange husband goes to the kitchen and takes out plates from the cupboard. I get up to help him.MIKHAILI watch Mia as she picks up the plates and forks, carries them to the table, then comes back for the glasses. She took the news that I have a child better than I thought. I didn’t tell her befor

  • The Mafia King's Temporary Wife     The Secret He Kept

    MIKHAIL It took me almost an hour to calm down enough to talk. If I had asked her while we were still near her father’s house, I probably would have turned the car around and gone back to kill that bastard. Mia is staring ahead. Her eyes look blank, like she’s trying to decide if she should answer me or not. After a few seconds, she picks up her phone, types something, and shows it to me. "He wanted me to spy on the Bratva. I said no.” That’s not a surprise. I expected something like that. “Why did you say no?” She lifts one eyebrow, types again, and hands me the phone. “I’m not suicidal.” “Smart choice.” I reach out and lightly touch her cheek. Her skin is soft. It doesn’t bother me. Actually, I like it. I brush her cheek again, this time with the back of my hand. The red mark on her face is almost gone. I should’ve killed that bastard anyway. Mia is looking at me strangely as I touch her cheek. I can’t tell what her expression means. Maybe she’s surprised or con

  • The Mafia King's Temporary Wife     Facing The Fury Of A Killer's Wife

    MIA I stop at the bottom of the stairs and turn to face my older sister. She’s standing with her hands on her hips, looking at me like she hates me. Allegra has always hated my guts and says mean things all the time. She did it even when we were kids. Angelo once said she was jealous of me, but that makes no sense. Allegra is the perfect daughter. Everyone loves her. I’m the black sheep, pretty, but broken. I couldn’t even talk for years. I take two steps toward her and stop. I grab her hand, look at her bare finger, and pretend to feel sad. Then I pat the back of her hand and lift mine to show my wedding ring. After that, I give her the middle finger and walk away. I know what hurts Allegra most, and I’m not afraid to use it. Her biggest dream has always been to get married. She started planning her wedding in fourth grade. So me getting married first feels like the worst thing in the world to her. I know I was being childish, but I couldn’t help it. She can’t talk badly a
