All Chapters of The White Dove: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Violetta's POVI woke before my alarm went off, as I always did and rolled off the mattress, I called a bed and onto the dirt floor of the basement, I called my bedroom. I wasn't allowed to live in the main house, as I was a nobody to my mother and stepfather. Other than my mattress, I had a couple of drawers on the floor in which I kept the small collection of cloths in and a ratty blanket I had, had since I moved in here at 4. I stood up and went to the small shower room I had in the basement and turned on the water. Getting in quickly I washed myself as quickly as I could under the freezing cold water, I didn't pay them enough to warrant using the hot water, and the last time I was caught using it, I still have the scars on my back from the beating I got.My mother brought us here when I was four, telling me that my father was disgusted that I was a girl, that wasn't how I remembered him, but then maybe my 4-year-old brain was trying to protect me and made me think I was his little

Dimitri’s POVThe plane journey to London from New York took around 7 hours. In that time my father had found everything he could about this Judge. His wife Iliana Granger was our bitch of a mother, so we knew now that it was our little white Dove. The name white dove had come from his mother Nina. She said he coos always reminded her of a dove, and her soft white hair was as white as snow and the name White Dove had stuck. My mother was more of a mum to the five Vassilev children and it broke her when Vi was taken, she felt like her own daughter had been taken from her. Our mother didn’t give a shit about the family, she just wanted the money and the lifestyle that came with being a part of the mafia. She had never been much of a mother to her children, and she was so jealous when Vi came along that she treated her even worse than she treated the boys, all because the baby was getting more attention than she was. It was a surprise when we found out that Anastasia had taken off with Vi

Dimitri's POVVi fell asleep pretty quickly, curled in a ball on the airplane seat. I saw the air hostess come in and smile at us, she opened her mouth to speak, but I put a finger to my lip and nodded to my little dove. Marissa, the flight attendant, opened one of the overhead lockers and pulled out a blanket which she carefully placed over the sleeping Vi."Can I get you anything to drink sirs?" she whispered to us."A whiskey on the rocks." I said. She nodded and looked over to Adrien."Just a coke for me." He said before she disappeared to ask the other passengers. "If it wasn't for her hair and eyes, I would think she was too young to be Violetta.""She is very malnourished." I said looking at her sleeping form. "She looks about 15 not 21." He sighed. "When I lifted her out of the car, she weighed nothing, and I could feel her bones. What did you see on her arms that had you looking like you wanted to kill?""Cigarette burns and scars." I muttered."What?" Adrien said, his gaze

Vi's POVBeeping, all I could hear was beeping. Every beep reverberated through my head. I tried to open my eyes, and after what seemed like hours, I managed to blink them open. I groaned as I shut them again from the light in the room."Little Dove?" Came a familiar voice."Is she awake?" Came a lyrical voice which was faintly familiar."L...Lights." I mumbled, my mouth was like sandpaper. A moment later, I heard a click."You can open your eyes now, sweetheart." Came the soft, lyrical voice again. "Mitri, go and get Doctor Klaus."I realised that someone was holding my hand, and I had a sudden urge of not wanting to loose that touch and I tightened my grip. This person made me feel safe."Little Dove, I promise I will be right back." Came the voice as I blinked open my eyes and looked at the man whose hand I had a death grip on.""You stay, Mitri, I'll go." I looked in the direction of the soft voice and gasped."Nee nee?" I mumbled I must be dreaming. The woman gasped, her hands fl

Vi's POV"Would you like some iced tea or some water?" Aunt Nina asked."Um, some water, please," I respond. I had never tried Iced Tea before. I watched as she filled the glass with some water and put a straw in it for me before handing it to me."Take small sips, don't gulp it, you need to take it slowly until we get your stomach used to proper amounts of food again." She said with a loving smile."Thank you," I said, dropping Fluffy to my lap. I knew I was 21, and too old for teddies, my mother had told me plenty of times, she had thrown fluffy in the bin so many times, and I had to creep out to find her after everyone was in bed and hide her under my mattress, but it was the only thing I had that made me feel safe. I couldn't bear to let her go. "You must think I am such a child." "Not at all. You are our child. You belonged to all of us the moment you were born. It has been many a generation since a girl was born into the Vasiller family, even more for the Koslov family. So when
