LilianaThe glass exploded around us like a deadly rain. I screamed as Mikhail threw himself on top of me, pushing me to the floor behind a heavy oak table. Sharp pieces cut into my arms and face, but his body shielded me from the worst of it."Stay down!" he shouted over the sound of gunfire that erupted from every direction.My ears were ringing from the explosions. Through the chaos, I could hear men yelling orders, boots pounding on marble floors, and the terrible sound of bullets hitting wood and stone."Mikhail!" I grabbed his shirt as he started to move away from me. "Don't leave me!""I have to help defend the house," he said, his dark eyes intense with determination. "But you're going to be safe, I promise.""How can you promise that?" Tears were streaming down my face, mixing with blood from the glass cuts. "They're here for me! For the baby!""They'll have to kill me first." He kissed my forehead quickly, tasting of salt and fear. "Dmitri!"Dmitri appeared beside us, crouch

LilianaThe darkness was complete and terrifying. One moment I was staring at the man who claimed to be Gromov's brother, the next moment the world disappeared into black nothingness.I heard gunfire erupting around me, men shouting orders in multiple languages, boots pounding on the floor. Someone grabbed my arm in the darkness, fingers digging into my flesh like iron claws."Let me go!" I screamed, but my voice was lost in the chaos."Quiet, little sister," Alexei's voice whispered close to my ear, his breath cold against my neck. "We wouldn't want anything unfortunate to happen to that precious child you're carrying."I tried to fight, tried to pull away from his grip, but he was much stronger than me. In the darkness, I couldn't see where he was taking me, couldn't get my bearings."Mikhail!" I called out desperately. "Mikhail, help me!""Your husband cannot help you now," Alexei said calmly. "He has a choice to make. His family's survival, or yours."Strong hands lifted me, and s

LilianaThe metal fork felt cold and sharp against my throat. Just a little pressure, just one quick movement, and all of this would be over. No more fear. No more being used as a weapon against the people I loved.I'd been planning this since morning when Sister Catherine brought my breakfast. The fork was small but sharp enough. I'd hidden it under my pillow, waiting for the right moment.Now, sitting on the narrow bed in my prison room, I pressed the metal points against my skin. Just hard enough to feel them, not hard enough to break the skin. Yet."I'm sorry, little one," I whispered to the baby growing inside me. "I'm sorry you'll never get the chance to live. But this world is too cruel and too dangerous. You're better off not being born into it."Tears streamed down my face as I thought about Mikhail. Would he understand? Would he forgive me for making this choice?"He'll be free," I told myself. "Without me and this child, Alexei will have no reason to hurt him. The family wi

LilianaThe moment I heard the cathedral doors crash open, I knew Mikhail had brought backup despite Alexei's warnings. Relief and terror warred in my chest as gunfire erupted around us."You betrayed me!" Alexei snarled at Mikhail, pressing his gun harder against my head. "I said come alone!""I did come alone!" Mikhail shouted back, taking cover behind a stone pillar as bullets flew. "I don't control what my men do on their own time!"Through the chaos, I could see Dmitri and what looked like twenty armed men pouring through the cathedral entrance. They moved with military precision, using the pews and pillars for cover as they advanced.Alexei's men were firing back, but they were caught off guard. They'd been prepared for one desperate man, not a full assault team."This changes nothing," Alexei hissed in my ear. "You still die tonight."But I could hear the panic in his voice. His perfect trap was falling apart."The baby," I said desperately. "You said you wanted the baby to liv

Liliana"Where is Dr. Kingsley now?" Mikhail asked Dmitri, and I could see his hand move towards the gun beneath his jacket."Downstairs in the main hall. I told him to wait while I spoke with you." Dmitri said."How did he seem? Nervous? Suspicious?" I asked, my brows raised."Actually, he seemed confused. He said he got a call from someone claiming to be your assistant, requesting immediate medical attention for a pregnant woman who'd been through trauma."My stomach dropped. No one was supposed to know about my condition except family members. And we certainly hadn't called Dr. Kingsley."Did he say anything else about the call?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady."Just that it came from a number he didn't recognize, but the caller knew details about Liliana's medical history that only someone close to the family would know.""Details like what?" Mikhail pressed."Her blood type. Previous medications. The circumstances of her memory loss."I felt the blood drain from my face.
