Lihat lebih banyakMaksim was ready to leave for the church when Doris barged into his room. He rolled his eyes as she paused at the doorframe and placed both hands on her waist. She had to remember she wasn’t his mother, and he wasn’t the naïve kid of many years ago.Struggling with his tie, Maksim ignored the housekeeper. Doris scoffed and crossed the distance to help him with the tie. Vanya confined her to bedrest, but the stubborn woman was off the bed the moment he told her he would assign Inna to his wife-to-be.“What you do to her?” she started, knotting his tie. He tried to grab it from her, but she scowled. “Why she hide under the bed?”“How am I supposed to know?”“That pretty woman,” Doris continued. Maksim’s lips twitched. Yes, Camilla was pretty, but her beauty meant nothing if she never listened to him. “She do nothing to you.”Maksim snatched his
Now naked, Camilla watched Doris fill the tub with water for her. They didn’t speak. She expected the woman to leave, but she reclined against the counter and hummed. Her not-so-silent presence didn’t make Camilla uncomfortable. The housekeeper was the only person in this place she liked.“I no talk to him again until he say sorry.”Camilla smiled. “He won’t. Don’t worry.”“He will,” Doris replied.Maybe Doris knew Alek more than she did, but the housekeeper hadn’t witnessed him assault her or lock her inside the closet.“Are you okay?” Camilla whispered. “I’m sorry I pushed you. It was an accident.”“I feel good. Like brand new.”Camilla laughed, and Doris came closer with a towel for her to dry her body.“I’m your side,” the older lady whispered.“You ar
It was dark inside the closet, and there was barely any space with the clothes dangling from their hangers. Camilla was tired of banging on the door from inside. Her voice was hoarse from screaming for help. First, he assaulted her with a gun, and now this? But didn’t she deserve it for hurting Doris? All the elderly woman tried to do was make her stay here more comfortable.Alek had paled when he found Doris. She had never seen him express that level of emotion. He cared about Doris, and she felt the same way about him. The accident had taught her one thing. If anything happened to Doris, Alek would make her life hell.Shifting into another sitting position, she whimpered. Her body ached from spending the night on a floor. This was not the ideal spot after a horrendous night. She wasn’t sure how long had passed until she banged the doors again. Her throat was parched. She was hungry. Doris never let her starve.“Alek?” she screamed
One. Two. Three.Maksim was finishing up his push ups for the day when someone knocked on the door. Sweat beaded on the rug, turning the particular spot darker. He ignored the quick succession of knocks, hoping whoever was at the door would leave him alone. If it was important, they could discuss after eating.Breakfast would be ready in a few minutes. Camilla’s dress would arrive before then. Grooms were not allowed to see the brides before the wedding, but they had broken enough rules already. He doubted Camilla cared for rules, and he had to fix that. She would have to at least care for his rules.For now, he had achieved one thing. His bride-to-be knew better than to lie to him. But why did she think he was Vanya?What Vanya told him was beginning to make sense. He and Vanya had arrived at Nightfall Hills at the same time but for different purposes. He was there for Mila, and Vanya was to meet a lady. His half-brother had retur
Camilla woke up with a start. She always slept with the lights off, so where was this sudden brightness coming from? Dragging her blanket up to cover herself, the rest of the sleep cleared when the material refused to move. Still trying to understand what was happening, a yelp escaped her lips as the blanket was yanked off her entire body.Doris had heated her room, but without the blanket, the cold pricked her skin. Eyes scanning the room for the culprit, she grabbed a pillow. She was certain she locked the door before falling asleep. Only her bedside lamp was on, so she couldn’t see whoever was playing this prank on her.“Up.”She could recognise that voice even in her dream. It was the voice of her nightmare. Alek. He stepped out of the shadows with a gun, and the pillow tumbled to the bed.What did she do this time? She had stayed away from everyone in the house, eating only what Doris brought to her room? Had he found ou
The pregnancy result was out. Camilla had thrown a tantrum yesterday when she realised where he was taking her, so today, Maksim came alone to the hospital. He opened the envelope the bald doctor gave him and read through the results. Camilla wasn’t pregnant, but he expected nothing less. This only confirmed all he knew.“She’s not pregnant?” he asked.“No,” Dr Igor replied.“But that’s between both of us, right?” Maksim added. The doctor nodded. The room was chilly, but a bead of sweat coated the doctor’s forehead. He didn’t like to threaten people, but today was a worthy occasion for it. “If someone else asks…”“She is two weeks pregnant,” Dr Igor said.Papa would want to know more about the woman he was set to marry and would go to any lengths to get the information. The only person who should know his wife-to-be was lying about her pregn
On the walls were huge portraits of people with foreign names. Most of them were males, only a few had a woman with them. One thing Camilla also noticed was the use of Don before each of the name. Was it a Russian thing? Except… no, it couldn’t be. Alek couldn’t possibly be in the mafia. “What’s a don?” she whispered to Doris as they reached downstairs. A few eyes turned to them as they continued to the entrance. There was a coat hanger in the large foyer and two more men at the door. “Hello.” They both bowed and chorused, “Madam.” Camilla’s cheeks paled. Once the door opened, she rushed out. Doris chuckled beside her. “You will get used to it. Soon.” She didn’t want to get used to this place or lifestyle. She wanted to leave. Doris led the way, and she wasn’t surprised to see a few more men in suit. Something told her they all had guns on them, but she wouldn’t be finding out. How well could Alek shoot? “What’s a don, Doris?” “Big, bi
Someone was holding Camilla. Not any random person. Alek. Wait, no, he wasn’t just holding her. She was on top of him. He must have caught her and lessened the brunt of her fall. Another person might have thanked him, but she was feeling far from grateful. Embarrassment burned her cheeks as she felt his very hard erection against her stomach. She tried to straighten up and make a run for it but hugged him immediately her reality dawned on her.She was naked.From her peripheral view, she spotted her towel on the rug. If she moved, he would see her. She wasn’t ashamed of her body, but she wouldn’t let him have that honour.“Are we going to spend all evening here?” Alek teased. His eyes carried a hint of amusement that bothered her. He might have had Ivan drop some money for Tina, but he was still an awful man. If she forgot anything, she couldn’t, she mustn’t forget he killed Alvin. “Dinner is waiting for us.”
Camilla’s room was beautiful, but the best part? She didn’t have to share it with Vanya. It had been a few hours since the bastard dumped her in this room and locked her inside. The flight had stretched on forever. She had fallen asleep, waking up in this room, on the queen-sized bed with beddings that were as soft as clouds.Now fully awake, she was up on her feet, inspecting every item in the room. From the soft, cotton bedsheets, the bedside drawer, pink table and chair tucked into the corner, empty shelves, to the vanity. It all looked brand new, like they did it for her.The door opened, and Camilla backed away from the table with lightning speed. A short, round bellied woman in a black uniform entered. Camilla grabbed a pillow as the woman walked further into the room. Her face was free of makeup, and her hair knotted in a bun with a white headdress.“Down,” the lady said. “The pillow.”“Ex
