Talia POV

My fingers brushed against cold metal and for a second I froze, then I found it still taped exactly where I'd hidden it five years ago.

The pistol felt heavy despite its size as I carefully peeled it away from the underside of the cabinet.

The moment it entered into my palm, a wave of memories crashed into me. I'd bought it two nights after running.

I hated the thing and what it represented and the memories attached to it.

  • Viktor Blacktop Bride    Gunshot

    Talia POVMy fingers brushed against cold metal and for a second I froze, then I found it still taped exactly where I'd hidden it five years ago.The pistol felt heavy despite its size as I carefully peeled it away from the underside of the cabinet.The moment it entered into my palm, a wave of memories crashed into me. I'd bought it two nights after running. I hated the thing and what it represented and the memories attached to it.During my pregnancy with Ethan, I had forced myself to learn how to use it not because I wanted to, but because I had been terrified every waking moment but after Ethan was born, I'd hidden the gun away because I never wanted him near it yet here I was, holding it again because I know exactly what it was capable of.My stomach churned because one pull of a trigger could change everything but what choice did I have?Alexei wasn't going to let me leave and Ethan was waiting for me.Slowly, I straightened and checked the gun,it was loaded with six bullets.I

  • Viktor Blacktop Bride    My Son First

    Talia POVI closed my eyes and, for the first time in five years, allowed myself to stop fighting for a moment.Tears slipped from the corner of my eye, traveling slowly across the bridge of my nose before falling onto the pillow beneath me but I didn't wipe them away because I was too tired.I let myself sink into the steady presence of Alexei's body pressed against my back.His arm rested around my waist and despite everything I knew about him, a small part of me felt safe and that terrified me because Alexei could never be part of Ethan's life no matter what feelings refused to die.Alexei belonged to a world built on violence and power, where danger lurked behind every corner and If he became part of Ethan's life, then Ethan became connected to that world too and that was something I could never allow.I didn't even know what Alexei wanted anymore.Whether he truly believed we could somehow become a family or whether he was simply acting on instinct, refusing to let us go after d

  • Viktor Blacktop Bride    Moving In

    Alexei POV “It means we have a child together, and if you think for one second you’re taking him away from me now, you’re delusional.”“So, what then?” Her voice rises."What's your plan, exactly?" she demanded, glaring at me. "Keep me locked up, tell me what to do, and expect me to obey without question?"Despite the seriousness of the situation, a smirk tugged at the corner of my mouth. Her fire never failed to get a reaction out of me."I don't see why that's such a terrible idea," I said lightly.Her eyes widened with disbelief."You're impossible." She shook her head angrily."This isn't some game, Alexei. I have a life and I have responsibilities. I have a job.""You don't need that job anymore."The words left my mouth calmly, but they only seemed to make her angrier. "What is that supposed to mean?""It means you don't have to worry about any of it. I'll take care of you."Her expression hardened. "I don't need you to take care of me.""Maybe not but I'm going to anyway." My

  • Viktor Blacktop Bride    Your Past

    Alexei POV Talia shivers beneath my touch, and I can’t help myself. I know she’s afraid of me and she’s fucking terrified right now, but it’s been so long since I’ve tasted her.When I lean down and squeeze her jaw between my fingers to hold her in place, she freezes, and I drag my lips over hers.She bucks against me, and a choked sound escapes her before she starts pleading again. “Alexei.”The taste of her tears and the blood on my lip ignited a dark, possessive urge inside me, fueled by anger and the fear of losing her.“Don’t you know this belongs to me?” My thumb digs into the pulsing vein in her throat, the very life force of her being. I want her to know there’s no escaping me. In life or in death, I will follow her.“Alexei, please.” Her chest heaves as she shakes her head. “My son needs me.”“Our son,” I snarl. “He’s our fucking son, Talia. Will you deny it?”She bites her lip as more tears spill onto her cheeks. “He needs his mother.”“And what about his father?” I drag my

  • Viktor Blacktop Bride    Talia Tears

    Talia POV I look up at Alexei and the rage was very obvious in hn his black eyes and his fisted hands even his muscles of his arms and wide shoulders displays his anger.I see the new tattoo snaking along his forearm, disappearing under the T-shirt.His hair is still wet, and I remember he said he’d taken a shower and he didn't appear to be in a hurry to leave all, rather he oddly looked relaxed.He wasn't even afraid of getting caught or of me escaping him now because I can’t. I know it. We both know it.He sets a knee on the bed, and I roll away.“Get away from me!” I scream when he catches me, rolls me back, and straddles me, keeping most of his weight on his knees as he takes my arms and drags them over my head to cuff me to my own headboard.Fuck, he brought handcuffs?If there is anything I hated, that must be expecting weakness and been helpless . “Let me go!”I shouted like a mad woman but he gets off the bed and goes to the mirror over the dresser.I watch him wipe a speck

  • Viktor Blacktop Bride    Alexei At Home

    Talia POVI climbed into the car and slid the key into the ignition, already cursing myself for putting off the repair for so long. The engine coughed once, then died. "Come on..."I turned the key again and this time it groaned before finally roaring to life.Cold air blasted through the vents, making me shiver instantly.I rubbed my hands together and drove out of the parking lot, pulling onto the empty road.The heater was struggling almost as much as the engine, and the chill seemed to seep through every layer of my clothes.My eyes kept drifting to the rearview mirror every few seconds and I knew it was pointless, but I couldn't stop.The image of Alexei standing outside the school kept replaying in my mind, he was definitely here.My grip tightened around the steering wheel.The little wooden house hidden among the trees had become more than just a place to live. It had become our sanctuary and the only place where I had allowed myself to believe Ethan and I might actually have
