“How we turned from strangers to a family so perfect?” Natalie and Adrian walked out freshly showered to the living room. They were both very peckish. Natalie had to wear one of his black T-shirts on top which she had tucked into her jeans. Natalie almost sulked seeing her shirt laying on the floor, ripped apart. But that view was of great pleasure for Adrian on the other hand. Tim and Leonid were already seated at the dining table. Leonid was wearing a pink apron as he served breakfast. Timofey’s eyes sparkled as he saw Natalie ad Adrian come out. “Good morning babe.” He chirped in a flirty tine even though it sounded baby-like. Natalie immediately smiled seeing him trying to flirt, whereas Adrian sighed, shaking his head not wanting to see his younger brother doing all this. He pulled out a chair for Natalie and then sat down himself. Natalie never really told him but his manners like this always make her heart flutter. “Morning,” Natalie replied back ruffling his hair and pre

“She was his heaven in this hell...” The bearded man finally woke up, grunting in pain. He clutched his forehead tightly as he still felt a little dizzy. Blinking his eyes open he saw someone holding a glass of water in front. He immediately grabbed it and chugged it down. The man’s chest heaved up, finally felt a little relieved, and looked up to see who gave it to him... He almost shrank back in fear when he saw Adrian looking down at him with a straight face, hands casually tucked in his pockets. His hairs were slightly wet, covering his forehead partially. Dressed in black jeans and a white shirt. He almost looked like a normal student but then his eyes held the power to make you believe he knows your deepest, darkest secrets. Lie he held some power over you, potentially could destroy you just by the snap of his fingers. “I-I’m s—“. Adrian just raised his hand, signaling him to stop. He was not here to hear some fake apologies. “You are going back to Russia first thing in th

“It was a flame, is how it began. But turned into a fire just by their breath.” Roman walked to his study angrily. Sitting down on his big luxurious chair, he started thinking about what to do. He wondered if this was all a part of Adrian’s plan to trap that girl and get them to reveal all their secrets. Adrian when setting his foot out if here was determined to do anything his father wished for, to destroy their enemy who killed his uncle, but on the other hand he couldn’t help but notice a few changes in his behavior too. He was not as keen about doing his missions as he was used to. The only few deals he even got there were actually not significant enough. But most importantly even if this was a part of his plan why wouldn’t he tell him? Why did he have to hide it? He knew better than to question his son. He could never tell if Adrian was lying or not, neither did he want to let him know he knew about this yet. He would wait for him to tell him. But maybe he might need to do som

"And sometimes she was just an angel with the most evil mind..." Natalie had just finished breakfast and was calling Thomas when suddenly Isaac came into her room breathless. “Dimitri got attacked. It just happened. The fight is still going. We are losing, no one was prepared” He spoke hurriedly out of breath. Natalie quickly got up, “We are going back now.” Her heart thumped against her chest. Her father was under attack, and Thomas was all there alone. She had to go back quickly. On the way, she made calls to get backups for Dimitri. She had prepared a special team for such emergency encounters. They were on their way to help Dimitri if they reached on time. “Isaac please make sure Thomas is in safe hands.” The ride back was the most excruciating pain she felt. She couldn’t do anything. She just had to wait and pray things to go their way somehow. “I’ve sent Thomas to our secret base. But no news came for Dimitri yet.” Natalie’s heart clenched in pain if something happened

As soon as Natalie walked away. Roman started his car and turned it around. He drove rashly to go back to his place. Adrian called Leonid but he was not picking up. He was worried that even if Natalie didn’t order her men to attack Leonid and Timofey. They still might, knowing the hate between them, Isaac would be too busy fighting that he wouldn’t care about anything else. And neither did they leave many guards there either who could protect them. When they in sight of the mansion, they could see the damage. Some of the guards passed out on the ground. Adrian quickly jumped out of the car, and Roman followed him in pursuit. Adrian dashed in, the doors were already broken down. He paused as he took in the scene in front of him. All the glass decors and luxurious furniture were thrashed inside. It was a complete mess but he didn’t care. All he wanted was to see Timofey and Leonid. He ran up the stairs to see where they were. He checked both Tim’s and Leonid’s rooms but they were
