Blood seeped out of her wound as pain screeched through her body. Aria eyed the wound on her shoulder. The bullet passed her shoulder, grazing her skin slightly before hitting the wall behind her. Aleksandr smirked seeing her shocked features. "Just one shot and you screamed. Relax Aria. That's not how I am going to kill you. I have thought of a different method for that."She shifted her eyes back at him. Her grey eyes stunned and her face was tight with tension as she watched his cold and dark features. She was not afraid of death but she didn't want to die yet. She just got Cosa Nostra and she had a big dream to run it. Aleksandr stepped ahead, nearing her again. His eyes never left her face for even a single second. "Revenge! What an interesting word it is, right?” He chuckled. “You came to me for your revenge. Now now, my dear wife, you will return to me for MY Revenge, and that too, willingly," He said with a crisp nod. Aria's eyes widened at his madness. What was He planning
Leonus raked his hands to his face. War. Revenge. Leonus didn't care about anything at this moment. He only wanted to meet Dinara. His phone was already out, he called Dinara immediately but her phone was off. Leonus didn't stop trying, at least one he knew his wife was not kidnapped by some sadistic bastard. He was glad that his wife was safe. He called the person he knew would be near her. Leigh. Aria walked to her brother. "Leonus, who are you calling?" She asked, seeing his impatient features. "Who do you think? I am trying to contact Dinara. I have to meet her soon and end this misunderstanding between us."He said and placed the phone to his ear while waiting for Leigh to accept the call as the bell started ringing. Aria's eyebrows pulled together at his words. Till now, she was hesitant to believe that Leonus didn't kill Dinara's baby. But now seeing him like this, she believed him. But now the question arises, if not Leonus then who? And now that Aria was thinking about it,
"What have you been thinking!" Aria busted on her brother while she was driving him back to his home. But Leonus' mind was on Dinara only and the words she said to him. The girl who always claimed to love him openly without any condition, gave up on him just like that. He understood they lost their daughter and he was also at fault but he didn't do this crime to kill the small life. He could never do that. He was ready to lose her before by giving her to someone who might have deserved her more but now… A madness took over his rationale. He was not going to lose his wife. Not at all. "Aria, take me to Mom. I want to meet her right now."Aria's throat choked with emotions as she recalled the words her mother said to her. Her own head was in uproar, she didn't understand her emotions. She too wanted to talk to someone to calm her mind. Before, she used to fall for her grandmother but after Aleksandr's incident, Things changed between them. She no longer shares her feelings with her
"Who are you to stop me from entering my husband's house?" Aria snapped at Mikhail who was stopping her from entering the main gate of Fedorov Mansion. The guards opened the iron gates for her but the moment she entered with her car, Mikhail stood in front of her at the main door when she tried to walk inside and he told her that she was not welcome there. His words hit Aria's ego. She came here giving up on her crown and heritage for her love and her marriage. And now, if anyone thinks that he or she could stop Aria from meeting her husband and winning his heart back Then that person is nothing but an utter fool!"About Whom you are talking about? The husband you tried to kill, Aria!"Aria got into his face. "Mrs Fedorov and your Bratva queen! Take my name respectfully," she said glaring at him. "Now get out of my way, Mikhail. Because if I can shoot my husband, I won't have any problem killing you!" She said authoritatively as she pushed him away from her way and walked inside the
"He didn't do anything, Dinara. Trust me, Leonus is guilty. Give him a chance. One last chance! You won't regret it," Aria repeated herself again. She came to her room in the evening after dinner. Dinara blinked as tears fell down her eyes. She glared at Aria. "I don't want to hear anything, Aria. Please don't talk to me. I don't want to discuss Leonus or my baby with you or anyone else anymore. I lost everything dear to me. So please don't do it!" She yelled at Aria angrily as all the pent-up emotions burst out of her. "Dinara…" Aria was stunned seeing her reaction. Dinara never talked to anyone like this but today everything became too much for her. Leigh was coming to Dinara's room with soup for her when she heard Dinara's shouting voice. Leigh ran to her room and was stunned seeing her crying and raging. She ignored Aria and focused on Dinara's well-being. "Dia? Are you alright? What happened!" She asked, putting the soup bowl on the table. Dinara was shaking all over as her
Aleksandr hugged Dinara tightly when she was about to leave for Russia. "Don't forget your brother is always here for you Dinara. Don't worry about anything. I will keep you safe." Dinars closed her eyes and nodded. "I know Bratan. I know," she said as she broke the hug and looked into his blue eyes. "Can I ask something from you?""Anything, you can ask anything from me," Aleksandr said with a soft smile on his face and kissed her forehead. Dinara held Aleksandr's hand and gave him a teary smile. "Don't give up on your love because of me. I know you love Aria. She is here because of you, give your love another chance Bratan. For me, don't give up on your marriage."Aleksandr stiffened at her request and snatched her hand from her hold. "You are getting late, Dinara. It's time for you to leave." Igor sighed seeing Aleksandr's reaction. He stepped forward and rested his hand on Dinara's arm. "Do you forget that you have another brother, Dinara? Don't you want to say goodbye to me?"D
"What do you mean, I have her? Where is Dinara?" Leonus asked carefully to Aleksandr who was standing in front of him with a gun pointing at his head. Leonus didn't care about the gun, he was worried for Dinara. "Answer me! Where is my wife? She was yours to protect!" Leonus busted on Aleksandr suddenly. Aleksandr's nose flared. "I am not here to listen to your preaching! I am asking you where is Dinara, Leonus? You handover her to me or I swear to God I will not leave even a single member of your family alive!"Shane and Lucas moved forward with their guns pulled out and pointed at Aleksandr and Igor. Leonus shook his head at them, "No. I don't want a war anymore, down your guns!" He ordered them both which shocked them to the core. Leonus looked into Aleksandr’s eyes carefully and pondered over the whole scenario."Stop acting, Leonus Salvatore Knight! You don't want war but you kidnapped my sister! You hurt my mother!" Igor snarled at him as he stepped forward and got into Leonus
Aleksandr stared at Aria without blinking a gaze. Her beautiful features calmed the rage inside him. He let out a deep sigh as many things once again started taking over the peace of his mind. Then He looked blankly at the ceilings above him. "What are you thinking about?" Aria whispered softly before she opened her eyes and gave him a smile. "When did you wake up?" Aleksandr asked, shifting his eyes to her. Aria rested her palm to his bearded cheek, "When you were lost in your thoughts," she answered with a soft smile. Aleksandr forgot to blink and let out a shaky breath as their eyes locked and the environment around them turned electrifying suddenly. Aria bit her lower lip as she thought it was the time right to tell him about their baby. Taking a deep breath she sat in the bed and looked at him intensely, "Aleksandr there is something you need to know. Although I am not sure how you will take this news. I mean," she swallowed the nervous lump in her throat as she took his han
