ROSALINE"I wish you could see how happy I am. I no longer feel as if something is weighing my chest down anymore. I feel so happy, mom. I can't explain it properly," I said to my mother excitedly as if she could hear me.Christmas was tomorrow and Anya did well to spread the holiday cheer with her Christmas cap always sitting on her head everywhere she goes. It was actually adorable.We even had a large Christmas tree in the middle of the living room with beautiful decorations on it. It was all thanks to Alexei, Vlad and Igor. I loved Christmas so much and seeing the decorations around the house couldn't stop me from being so giddy all the time.Today, Alexei offered to take Blakely out so they could spend some time together. How could I say no?"I love you," I rubbed my mother's hand and walked out of the room. As I made my way to the kitchen, I felt a wave of nausea hit me. Without hesitation, I pulled out a barf bag from my purse and emptied my stomach."Oh, dear. Let me get you s

ROSALINEToday was Christmas.Today was Alexei's birthday.I woke up early than usual. Blakely was still asleep so I took the opportunity to slip out of bed and went to take a shower. When I was done cleaning up, I put on a pair of leggings and a large blue shirt. I brushed my curls and let them rest out of their bun.With that, I walked out of my room and made my way downstairs to the kitchen. No one was around but I spotted Anya walking in from the back door.Perfect!"Good morning, Anya!" I waved at her. she gave me a beaming smile as she approached me. "Merry Christmas," she hugged me and I returned it. "Merry Christmas to you too," I said and we giggled. She was still wearing her Christmas hat."Let's make the ginger breads and proceed to making breakfast," she suggested and I nodded. "Alexei's cake?" I asked. "We shall do that in between. Let's not waste much time and let's be as quiet as possible," she said and I nodded.We began to dance around the kitchen, carrying things fro

ROSALINEI wasn't feeling like myself at all. Today was new year's eve and I was staring at the pretty dress on my bed with disdain. I wasn't in the mood to dress up to anywhere but I had to follow Alexei to his company's party.I wished he could just let me stay home but he insisted that I should be there with him. I wanted to use Blakely as my escape but Alina offered to look after her till we got back.I groaned and looked back at the window. I felt sick, very sick. I wanted to curl up on my bed and sleep the whole day away. I didn't like how I was feeling. I felt like my emotions were overflowing out of my cup.I looked at the clock to see I had only thirty minutes to get ready."Brilliant," I muttered as I quickly stood up and made my way to the bathroom to take a quick shower. When I was done, I slipped on a fresh pair of black lacey panties and a black bra. I then moisturized my skin before going to put on the dress laid out on the bed for me. It was a floor length black dress

ROSALINEShe stared at me like she wanted to kill me. Bitch, the feeling is mutual! "Polina, please excuse us," Alexei said. His voice was calm but I could tell he wasn't happy. She looked at him with surprise, "You can't be serious?""Did he stutter?" I interjected with a raised a brow and stood at akimbo. I could tell Alexei wasn't happy with my behavior but I couldn't care less. Madam Polina glared at me, "I wasn't talking to you." She began to speak in Russian but I waved her off, interrupting her, "Find someone else's man to hump."With that, she huffed and stumped her foot before walking away angrily. I rolled my eyes and turned to Alexei."What was that about?" I glared at him. He sighed, "She's the daughter of a friend. You're supposed to know the type of man I am."I scoffed and crossed my arms. "You go ballistic whenever a guy even looks in my direction, not to talk of approaching me. And now, I can't even tell her to back off? Do I look like a fool to you?" I glared harder

ROSALINEEverything was beautiful. A smile played on my lips as I watched Alexei feed Blakely. She hiccupped and he quickly grabbed a cup of water to hand to her. He held it to her lips and said sweet nonsense to her as she drank from it.It was too cute to watch."Did you like it?" I asked her. she nodded with a wide grin, "Yes, mommy. It's very tasty." "Do you like your food?" Alexei asked me and I nodded with a smile. For the first time, he was dressed in a pair of jeans and a dark blue shirt. He looked so handsome out of his usual suit and tie. His hair was messy and he had a silver chain around his neck. He looked so beautiful and everyone knew it.I was dressed in a floral dress with sandals and so was Blakely. Alexei said something to her in Russian. She replied back in the same language and my jaw dropped. "Did you teach her Russian?" I glared at him. He gave me a grin, "It was hard not to. She's a very fast learner.""Yes, mommy. I've learnt plenty things," Blakely piped

ALEXEINo words could describe how angry I was at the moment. I was surely going to kill Sahin and no one was going to stop me. I felt my stomach sink when images of what he could do to my wife flashed through my head.If he touches one strand of hair on her head, I'll butcher him up. I promise!"Bro, calm the fuck down," Vladmir walked in with an annoyed expression on his face with Igor following behind. I looked up from my laptop to glare at him. "Asked you not to come back till you get information!" I stated. He rolled his eyes, "It's been two days and you've not touched your fucking food. What are you? Five?"I ignored him and turned back to what I was doing. If they wanted to be useless, I'll find Rose myself. "Boss, your health is important," Igor said. I looked up at him, "So is my wife!" his face was still straight, as expected.Vlad sighed, "Did you at least check up on your daughter?" my eyes snapped to him. He gave me a narrowed look, "The girl already misses Rose too muc

ALEXEIWe still hadn't found her. all we knew was that Sahin was holding her captive. The Scottish Mafia was serving protection for Sahin's Mafia. The Chinese were always so fucking useless. All they ever did was obey whoever that paid them more money.They were total snitches that was why I never associated with them. They only followed money, like a leaf on top of a river letting the wind blow it in any direction.Fucked up people.I'll kill all of them this time. I'll burn their fucking country down!In futile attempts to suppress my anger, I took another swig of my whiskey. "Drinking will not solve any problem, son," I heard a voice.I knew who it was. My father.He walked towards the dining table and sat across me before placing his hands on the table and looking at me. I returned the stare. I wasn't scared of him. "That's rich, coming from a man that drank his life away on his wife funeral night," I retorted and he chuckled. "You will find her," he said to me. "I know. And I w

ALEXEII walked into the living room to see my mother, Alina seated on one of the couches with a distant look of her face while she watched television. She looked up to see me and gave me a smile."Good afternoon," I greeted her as she patted the space beside her for me to sit. "Hello, darling," she pulled me in a hug when I sat down. That was one thing about her. she loved hugs."I came to check on Blakely," I told her. "She had a big meal earlier so she's asleep upstairs," she said to me and I nodded. "Has she stopped crying?" I asked her. she chuckled sadly, "She cries for both of you at night but spends the rest of the day sleeping."This made me sigh. I'm fucked.Rose would kill me if she was here.Rose.I felt a pinch in my chest. "I heard Rosaline's elder brother flew here," mother said. I nodded, "He's helping the others with the situation." I couldn't even recognize my own voice again.She hummed a sweet tone and placed her hand on my lap to make me look at her. "Who is Rose
