Vladimir:I wrapped my arm around Eliana as we walked toward the dining room. Her hair which was tied in a ponytail, revealed the love bite which I left on her neck, and need I say, I was proud to see how purple it became.It was already lunch time, and having skipped breakfast at the dining room, making the maids set us a table here in our room with the kids, we knew that we needed to go and join Lorenzo who would have wondered where Eliana was. Knowing that he asked her to come and see him today only made it harder for me to accept leaving the room. However, Eliana was Eliana, and she wasn’t going to leave the subject hanging more than necessary.“I see that you managed to make it” Lorenzo said raising an eyebrow at us, more specifically, at my wife. Eliana looked at me then at him, her smile wide on her face despite her exhausted eyes. The two of us finally managed to make up after one of our worst arguments, and looking at Lorenzo, I couldn’t help but want to punch the bastard in

Vladimir:“What did you find, Luka?” I asked entering the office. The men who were sitting on their chairs, got up when they saw me. I nodded at them to leave, leaving me alone with Luka. No one knew of what I had planned and the less people knew about it, the better it was for my wife’s safety.“Hello to you too, Vladimir” Luka teased making me chuckle. I placed my hands on his shoulders, massaging them as I waited for his response “your suspicion could be very right. Luka has studied in the best schools despite being away from his father. He grew up having everything a kid could ever dream of. He studied law, and against all odds, he refused to be alongside his dad. Then years later, he chose to start working with Lorenzo, but he was never seen referring to him as father”“Anything that would lead us to Lorenzo being around Leonardo as he grew older? How the payments were made?” I asked looking at the screen where Luka was showing me what he found. Luka shook his head “no, the money

Vladimir:“What in the bloody world are you planning, my love?” I asked Eliana, wrapping my arms around her waist as I pulled her closer to me.She smiled, biting her bottom lip as she grabbed my shirt’s collar, pulling me closer. I leaned in, kissing her lips, her teasing behavior only told me that she was up to no good.“I’m playing Lorenzo’s own sadistic game”“You are playing with fire, my beautiful malyshka” I whispered kissing her neck, sucking on her sweet spot, enjoying the moan that escaped her lips. The two of us were supposed to be getting ready, but seeing as I had no idea what my beauty was going on about; it seemed like I needed to find out first.“And you are heating up that fire” she whispered back, pulling away to look me in the eye. I smirked and lifted her in my arms. Her legs wrapped around my torso as she connected her lips with my own.“I’m guessing that you have a little plan of delaying us?” I asked against her lips. Eliana looked down at me, resting her forehe

Vladimir:It took every bit of self control in me as not to yell at everyone to stay quiet and just listen.Had it not been for Elijah who asked them to be quiet, and eventually Nikolay who snapped, wanting to listen to what Eliana had to say; everyone would have been complaining until now.Leonardo sat by Eliana’s side, looking at us with wide eyes, and I wasn’t sure whether he was enjoying or fearing the sight before his eyes. But either way, he made no attempt in speaking to voice out his thoughts.“So, you’re trying to explain to me that this man, your brother, Lorenzo’s son, is against Lorenzo?” Viktor asked raising an eyebrow “and he isn’t after me for…”“Don’t test your luck too much, Romanov” Leonardo spoke for the first time, stopping my twin “if I am not against you; it is because first, I didn’t know the woman; she chose to give me up as a child. Second, if Eliana, a woman who has been raised by her, is now your best friend, then I am pretty sure that you didn’t go ahead ki

Vladimir:I smiled when I opened my eyes to find my beauty laying in my arms. Her eyes closed as she slept peacefully for the first time in months.I knew that we slept in, and I was well aware that it was late, but I also knew the reason why no one bothered to wake us up. The two of us were not only exhausted from last nights’ love making, but we were both mentally drained from being at the D’Angelo house for a while now.Therefore, seeing that my beauty was finally at peace, I didn’t have it in me to wake her up.Slowly getting out of bed, I walked toward the bathroom only to smirk when I saw the love bite that Eliana left on my neck. She was never one to usually leave them, but when she did, I couldn’t help but feel proud of the fact that she was ‘claiming’ me as her own for everyone to see. I washed my face and brushed my teeth, as to start getting ready for the day.I got inside the shower, turning the tap water only to smile when I heard the bathroom’s door get knocked “come in”
