Chapter 31Vladimir My blood boiled furiously, threatening to spill over the lid of self control I’d placed on it. As if Mama heard my voice, she muffled. The scoundrel beside me continued to whimper like a baby who was spanked by this father, fortunately they didn’t know who I was and that I was more than capable of spanking.Still beat with rage, I flung him across the room, marching into the bedroom fast enough to stop his partner from assaulting her. Fury blinded my eyes, spurring me to attack him without thinking. He screamed when my knife dug into his shoulder, blood gushing out like it would from a fountain.“You fucker, how dare you touch her?” My voice thundered across the room.If there was any sliver of confidence before, my outright attack had erased it and replaced it with dread. Tremors barreled forcefully through his body as he collapsed onto the ground, nursing the little injury he had sustained. If he was lucky, he and his friend would be able to use their arms next

Chapter 33Guilia I tried to imagine it, but I don’t think I’d ever experienced it. Staring through the open window, the rain dropped heavily onto the ground, the breeze carrying a deep scent of moist earth and water. It would be wonderful to have a bath in the rain, and the most important part was that I wouldn’t be alone. He’d be there with me.“No,” I shook my head. “Even if I had, you don’t think it’s possible for me to remember such details now, do you?”“Well, we can make new memories… one that will never leave your mind no matter the hurdles and challenges you face,” He referred to my accident, a smirk growing on his lips, assuring me that he’d make good on his words.A light chuckle reverberated in my throat, heat rising up in my cheeks. “I like the sound of that,”Soon we were at the door, the heavy wind blowing at us. We exchanged glances as he grabbed my hand, leading me into the rain. The first few drops that bathed my skin caused me to shudder, but in no time I got used

Chapter 35GuiliaMy eyes were puffy from crying profusely, a stubborn ache gnawing at the side of my head. Vladimir held me tightly, his sturdy chest a soft pillow that I enjoyed snuggling as the jet soared through the clouds, making its way to Seattle where I’d be reunited with the people I once knew as family.My brain was in a limbo with different thoughts sparring continuously into my mind. I was unsure of what to feel and what was expected of me. Vladimir had assured me that I was loved by my lot and no one would treat me badly, but if that was the case, I wouldn’t have gone missing in the first place.“Are you alright?” His brows dropped in a furrow as his gaze skimmed through my face.I nearly looked away to evade his psychic ability in seeing through me. “I’m not so sure but you’re here with me, and I’m about to hit a milestone in my accident recovery so…” The last words died on my tongue as his lips settled on mine.By the time the kiss ended, I was positively jittery and di

Chapter 37 Vladimir The house was still bubbling with the euphoria of the recent progress in Guilia’s recovery. Ariel was visibly excited with her best friend’s return and Dalian had decided that he didn’t need me today. It didn’t matter because this was what we all prayed for. I produced a cigarette stick from my breast pocket, an irritated hiss slipping out of my lips when I discovered that I didn’t have a lighter with me. “Today’s a good day, consigliere, nothing should piss you off,” Dmitri appeared within my vision, the flame from his lighter lighting up my stick. “Nothing is. I just don’t know how to feel,” I admitted. He let out an exhale, smoke accompanying the act. “But are you happy?” “Very happy. I can’t even explain how happy I am whenever I remember that she’s alive and here with me, but I won’t deny that there are certain things that try to dampen my mood,” This time I took in a drag, the cigarette fume billowing out of my nostrils. “She doesn’t like what we do a

Chapter 39Guilia He led me into the room that I’d been so sure that I'd never be in tonight, the light coming on with a snap of his fingers. I didn't care how he did that. “It's good to know that you still have that passionate flare in you,” I pressed my lips, my arms forming a circle around his neck. “I've told you that you bring out the crazy side of me. When I'm with you, I'm reckless,” I admitted in a whisper because that was the truth.We’d even met in a club.“I’d be damned if I didn’t bring out that side of you. Weren’t you the one who said that our hearts were in sync?” A mischievous smile pulled on his lips as he used my words against me.“God, Vladimir,” I attempted to shut him up with another kiss before my cheeks would explode in flames from blushing excessively, but he beat me to it, covering my expectant lips with his.The tension and anticipation that had been building up erupted within me as I tightened my grip around his neck. The kind of feelings I experienced by
