"I can even learn to hate you.....” Adrian saw the scene in front of him with burning eyes. Right now when he was not even sure if they were together or not and it killed him from the inside looking at another man's arms around her. He clenched his jaw and looked away, gulping down his drink angrily. Natalie was talking to Niles, who had organized this ball dance. His father was one of Dimitri's most trusted partners. They have been helping each other for many years now. Niles was of course close to Natalie for the same reason. He had played with her when they were little and couldn’t help but fall in love with her. But he realized that Natalie didn't feel the same. Despite that, he still maintained his friendship with her, cause she was the most interesting woman in his life. He needed her to be in his life, she was the wisest friend he had and was like a breath of fresh air in his life. Another thing about Niles was that he was Isaac's best friend. Isaac would never openly admit i

"If you're hating me...do it honestly." Adrain quickly turned to her disbelief flowing in his eyes. His eyes were trying to find an explanation, something in her eyes to keep him sane. But she didn't even glance at him. She just grabbed that man's hand who had the most filthy look on his face and went out of his office to the spare room right in front of it. Adrian just stood there frozen. There was no way she would agree to that. He was impatiently looking at her as she walked into the room and closed it behind her. She probably must have taken him there to kill him. She must have just lied. He tried to console himself but the more the seconds went by he grew frustrated. His heart was beating loudly. He had thought she wanted to hurt Alan but why did she have to leave from here? Be all alone with him? He couldn’t wait any longer when he heard absolute silence. It prickled him like a needle and he walked closer to the door. But of course, it was locked. "Natalie open the door right

Natalie planned to attack Roman's mansion again. This time to capture him. She wanted to take advantage of the fact that right now they had a paucity of men in their gang as Natalie still had many who attacked their mansion locked up. She even knew that the mansion she had destroyed was already put back the way it was. Roman surely wasted a lot of money on materialistic things rather than use it to strengthen his army. Soon he was supposed to go back there, it was the perfect plan to attack him. She was just waiting now, every step was already planned. One day more to go... || The story was a little different with Roman. He too was planning to fight but as he discussed with some members he realized that they were not yet prepared for a raid, at most they could attack in ambush. Adrian was always alert in such meetings to spoil all the plans he could in any way. But this time when steven suggested something his blood boiled in anger. They were in a meeting, roman wanted more plans

Adrian had gone out to check on what was happening with Steven. He wanted to make sure that guy didn’t have any chance of getting back to normal. He had the doctors in his hold. It was not really hard to believe but many people of the Smirnov gang respected Adrian a lot more than Roman. That vile man would get drunk in power and kill anyone in his way just to take out his frustration, his failure. If this day Adrian was to be their new leader they wouldn’t ask for anything better. He at least respected their life and only killed his worst enemies. He would rather protect his own gang. He would act like a leader, not a boss. But Roman looked at them like they were his slaves. But the thing was that even if Adrain did put his father out of power it won't help because of the deep rivalry between Smirnov’s and Ivanov’s gangs. The members of the Smirnov gang blamed Dimitri for the death of Maxim, he was the best leader they had. All the members loved and respected him profoundly. He

He started walking towards him. Roman could see the anger radiating off him, it somehow made a shiver of fear run through him too. But ignoring it he yelled at Adrain. "Stop right there." He knew how much Adrian loved Timofey and he would never forgive him for this, and by the look in Adrain's eyes, it seemed he was ready to kill him. Adrian challenged his father with a hard glare and didn't stop walking. Glaring at his father he stepped toward him. He didn't care if he fired at him, he would still kill him anyway. Roman's eyes sparked with fear, fear of Adrian. Natalie saw the fear in Timofey's eyes growing he had never seen that look in Adrian's eyes. It looked so deadly, so emotionless. Like he wanted to destroy everything in his sight. Timofey had not seen this side of his brother before. He had never seen his father this way either. He had never seen so much blood and dead bodies either. It was too much coming at him all at once. Natalie saw how close Tim was to breaking apar
