Brielle Clarke~•~“Go change.” Maxim was standing opposite my door as soon as I walked out.“No.” His eyes darkened as he stared at me, his eyes running up and down my body. I was putting on a little black dress that ended mid-thigh, but the slit ended just below my panties. It was full-sleeved and didn’t even show cleavage but my back was exposed.“I need to have a talk with Marina. You never would have bought these provocative clothes by yourself.”Then, I wouldn’t have, but I wouldn’t say the same about now. I would do a lot of things to get under his skin as he was able to rile me up easily.“Do I look good?” I decided to taunt him by doing a little spin. When my gaze met him again, his jaw was clenched. It seemed like he could barely control his anger. This was the reaction I was looking for.“You look like you want his dick inside you.”“What if I do?”“I’ll cut it off.”I drew back at the words. Was I making a bad decision by going out with Caleb? The last man I danced with e
Brielle Clarke~•~I was very certain Caleb was interested in me before we left for our little date, as Maxim called it but I began to doubt it when he kept a distance.It was like he was scared to touch me. I didn’t mean that in a sexual way. He avoided brushing shoulders with me. He avoided looking me in the eyes. It was weird. We did not spend up to an hour together before he decided it was time for me to go back home.I was agitated.“What is the matter? Did I do something wrong?” I could not help but ask when we got into the SUV again.“What? Why would you ask that?”“Maybe because it feels like you don’t want to be here.”He laughed awkwardly. “That’s nonsense. I initiated the date, did I not?”I sighed, leaning back. He was not going to admit it. “Sure you did.”Even if my brain had been riddled with thoughts of Maxim, I had been hoping a date with Caleb would be fun. It was anything but that. It felt like I was talking to myself and he always zoned out during conversations.Th
Brielle Clarke~•~It turned out Maxim was not playing around. Debbie was looking smug when she entered the room while my mouth parted in disbelief.They did not use the bed, no. They stood right in front of me as Maxim used his teeth to pull off her thong.“Let me go, Max.”Maxim ignored me. “What the fuck do you think you’re doing tying me up naked? This is harassment.”He did not even act like anyone was speaking. He bent Debbie right there and then, her hand almost touching her toes.Since his dick was wet from the blowjob I gave him, he did not waste any second thrusting into her. Debbie let out an unnecessary loud moan.“Fuck you, Max. Fuck both of you.”With every second that passed, I hated him even more and my heart hardened. I was going to leave this place, even if I died doing itI tried to think of other things, happy thoughts, but I realized I had none. I lived such a sad life. I wanted to start over. I needed to start over. Maxim was a toxic asshole. He grew up living
Maxim Vasiliev~•~As Mikhail dragged a screaming Brielle away, I collapsed on my chair, my jaw clenched.Did I take it too far? Did she really mean it when she said she hated me? Fuck, what have I done?I didn’t know how long I sat there, staring into space but after a while, Mikhail came back downstairs with a glare directed at me.“You’re not that heartless, Maxim,” was the first thing he said when he sat on the chair adjacent to mine. “It’s one thing to get rid of Caleb, which I don’t agree with by the way, but having sex with Debbie in the same room as Brielle? What the fuck is wrong with you?”My jaw tightened. “Stay out of this, Mikhail.”“No, I’m not going to stay out of it. She gave you her body, knowing fully well she was only getting half of what she wanted, but you still have to punish her.”“Oh and since you know her so well, what does she want?”“You, Maxim. Don’t be stupid.”I took a deep breath and looked away from him. I did not want anything that would end up in both
Brielle Clarke~•~Mikhail left me in my room after wrapping up my knuckles and went back downstairs. When he came back up, he was fuming, taking away my attention from my problems. “What is it?” It was the first time I was seeing Mikhail like that. He was not very involved in the mafia, but at that moment, it felt like he could kill a person for no reason. He was pacing around my room as if trying to dissolve his anger. “Mikhail, you’re making me worried. What happened?”He sighed, dragging a hand down his face. “Nothing. Just Maxim being his usual asshole self.”“Oh.” Maxim. I did not like thinking of him. I did not want to hear his name and I definitely did not want to talk about him. Only the thought of him hurt. I could feel my ache whenever his name was brought up. “Did you guys fight?”“We are not on good terms right now.”“Because of me?” I felt tears fill my eyes at that moment. Mikhail and Maxim were very close. It did not feel right to come in between them like that.Mikh
Maxim Vasiliev~•~I frowned when I heard my phone ringing and saw Debbie’s name flash across my screen.She never had to call me. I was always the one calling her and I had called her earlier in the day. Was she calling to cancel? She had never done that before.“Hello? It’s 5 pm. Are you not supposed to be here by now?” I questioned, going straight to the point. I had not brought her in for more than a week and I had been frustrated. I was not even certain it was sexual frustration. Brielle was not on speaking terms with me and neither was Mikhail. They made it known to me and everyone around that they were ignoring me.I tried to talk to them but it was not working.Sometimes, it was obvious Brielle wanted to crack and give in, but then she’d probably recall how I fucked Debbie in front of her and she’d strengthen her resolve.Okay, fine. I fucked up by doing that. I did not blame her for staying away from me. If someone I had feelings for did something like that, I’d probably cut
Brielle Maxim~•~While Maxim had been trying to get my attention, it completely ceased after the day he almost exchanged blows with Mikhail.Mikhail admitted that he riled up Maxim on purpose but that did not change the fact that he was about to hit his best friend. I knew his morals were different from mine but I didn’t know if I would’ve been able to handle it if they had injured one another.I was flattered that Debbie was chased away, but I did not like the aftermath of it. Maxim had ended up going to her anyway and as embarrassing as it was to admit, it pained me.I still liked him. I had feelings for him even if he was a jerk. Sometimes, I wished I could turn them off. I wish I would stop feeling. Fuck, I hated thinking about him but somehow, my thoughts were filled with him. It was crazy.It was yet another night that I could not sleep because I was wondering what the hell he was doing out. He came home later than he usually did. Was he working? Or was he having fun with other
Brielle Clarke ~•~I was finally able to make use of the library Maxim had made for me.I noticed that some of the books were missing which made me laugh. Some of the hardcore killers living in this house were also interested in reading. It was fascinating.While reading, I could not stop my mind from drifting to my birth mother. She was snatched away from me as soon as I was born and I was not privileged to even know the truth about it.That had to explain why I had brown hair and my siblings all had blonde hair. It was something they made fun of since we were little. I wondered when they knew we were half-siblings.Things changed for the worst when I was eight years old. Even before then, I knew my mother resented me but at eight, my siblings started to treat me the same way she did.Did she reveal it to them since then? How were they able to keep it a secret and continue treating me like trash? I had so many questions with no one to answer them.Was what Mikhail told me the truth?
