Miriam’s POVThe warm buttery smell of something sweet filled my nose as soon as I opened my eyes, while the sharp sound of my alarm burst through the air.I reluctantly stood up from the bed, while the sweet unfamiliar scent filled the room. Like someone had assembled the entire kitchen of a five-star hotel and placed it under my nose. For a second, I honestly thought I was still dreaming.I looked around, but noticed nothing was amiss. I made my way outside the room and the sweet, addictive smell became more prominent.But the view of the dining table was more shocking.An array of eggs, toast, fruits and even pancakes were stacked so neatly on the table like it was a soft commercial. The bright sunlight from the balcony filled the room.I could not help but notice that there was a small vase with a flower sticking out in the middle, elevating the ambiance of the room. “Good morning, malysh.” A deep, calm, familiar voice captured my attention.I turned and there he was.Lazar was

Lazar's POVI was in a good mood. It was a rare occurrence but with the way my relationship with Miriam was growing along with how good business was this days I could say I deserved to be in a good mood.It was a good morning as well, I could still remember the soft feeling Miriam's lips on mine. My lips tingle every time I think about it.Plus my new weapons shipment arrived without a single hiccup, and the files in front of me were clean, the numbers adding up, signatures were in order, everything felt so perfect so perfect it was almost like there was a storm brewing in the distance.But given this kind of job, a storm is blind to come sooner or later. So I guess I can just reel in this peaceful moment and enjoy it while it lasts.Rodsov walks into my office with his signature three best knocks to announce his presence.He had a knowing smirk on his face. I was sure he had noticed I was not about to curse him out for disturbing me as he walked to my bar.“You are smiling, Lazar. Ca

Lazar's POV I stared at the screen longer than I should have, my grip tightening around the phone while my brain was working ten times more than usual as I tried to think of who could be behind this?Who could be so bold as to threaten me?The picture of Miriam standing at the front of the same office building I dropped her off this morning, looking carefree with a big smile on her face. The kind of smile that softens everything inside me, the kind of smile I selfishly want only for myself.But what bothered me the most was knowing that someone was following her and possibly stalking her and I had no idea. This person could be close to Miriam, someone she knew and someone bold enough and connected to be able to get my number and send it to me with just one one word attached: beautiful.It was clear this stranger was mocking me and I was furious.It was taking every single ounce of patience in me not to explode.But beside the anger I felt a strange feeling blooming in my chest…..fe

Janet's POV I slammed the door of the taxi harder than I meant to. The loud thud makes an old woman carrying a basket on the street flinch and mutter something under her breath but I don’t care. I was furious and my blood was boiling. The last thing anyone should expect from me right now is that I should be polite.I can only blame William for how I feel. William and that thrashy Miriam.William was really testing my patience. I could still remember the way he looked at me when I confronted him about Miriam. The scene kept replaying in my head over and over again and just thinking about it annoys me so much I want to pull out all his hair from his head. “Yes, Miriam works in my company. Why are you making a big deal out of it?” he had responded, so calm and nonchalantly. And he dared ask me why I was making a big deal out of it? Like what the hell was going in that man's head.This is the same Miriam I practically had to fight tooth and nail to drag him away from. I know how har

Lazar's POV I knew something was off the second Miriam insisted on taking a cab, but I just don't know what it was.It was not that I didn't trust her…it was that I didn’t trust the world around her. With the new sudden threats around her I had specifically planned this dinner to spend more time with her but again she has her plans.Although Miriam likes to show a stoner willed woman upfront I truly knew who she was. She was fragile and soft in a word where people like her get eaten up by selfish wolves.Yet I could only stand still and watch as she waved at me with a bright smile on her face while her taxi pulled away.“Damn man, it seems you are not getting any love tonight. I was a little bit optimistic for you.” Rodosov said teasing or should I say mocking me as we both stared at the departing cab.“Shut up.” Without a second thought I got into my car while Rodosov found his way to the seat and my driver drove off.“Why are you here?” I asked, wondering what Rodosov was doing i
