Aleksandr was staring at the dark sky outside the window of his room. Aria came and hugged him from behind. "I was waiting for you in bed and you were staring at the sky. Now I feel jealous of it, husband."Aleksandr sharpened his eyes and sighed before turning around and gazing into her beautiful grey eyes. Aria frowned at his serious expression. "Is everything alright?" She asked him."Are you hiding something from me, Aria? Anything you think I should know about?" He answered her question with a question of his own. Aria's eyebrows straightened. "No. Why would I hide anything from you? And if you want to ask me something, ask clearly, Aleksandr."Aleksandr raised his chin and blew out a breath. "They say it true, Love is like a slow poison. It eats you slowly, sweetly and you let it. Love is like a poison.""Alexander, are you trying to say something?" Aria asked as she found his words dubious."Poetry. I was trying my hand at poetry. I heard somewhere that love turned men into poe
Dinara blinked a few times when she found her mother standing in the doorway with Leigh. Her heart escalated as she rested her hand protectively on her belly. "Mama?" She whispered before giving an accusatory gaze to her friend for bringing her mother there. "Yes. It's been many days since I saw you last time. You didn't come to see me just like Aleksandr. So I came to talk to you. I am a mother after all. Ignoring my children's mistakes is my obligation," she said with a sigh. "Is there a private place somewhere we can sit and talk?"Dinara swallowed her saliva in fear but nodded. "My room or garden. Wherever you want.” She whispered, taking a step back. It looked as if she was asking them to enter but the truth was that Dinara was scared. Scared of her own mother."Garden would be a better option," Leigh said to Nikita who nodded. "Garden it is then, shall we?" Nikita asked Dinara, whose heart stopped for a moment only to start racing at a record speed. She nodded. "Ye..yes." She
Aria looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes shining brightly just like the day of her first potential marriage after which she was going to get Cosa nostra. But that day, that moment got ruined brutally. Today she will get everything back. She will not fail herself this time. She was dressed into a beautiful high slit red dress. Her lips were painted red too, she looked like the queen that she was. Aleksandr entered the room and walked towards her. He was under spell by her beauty. His wife was not looking less than a bewitching goddess today. He stood behind her watching her in the mirror. He rested his hands on her forearms and let out a deep breath. "Beautiful. You look beautiful," He complimented her beauty, watching her intensely in the mirror. Aria squinted her gaze, "Call me your queen, not beautiful, Aleksandr. I have waited so long for this day."He chuckled. "My Queen. You are the queen of my heart, Aria."Aria's eyes glowed at his words. "Is there something I should k
"Nuts?" Leonus asked Lucas who bought the chocolates for him. "I checked," Lucas answered, handing him a box full of chocolate and an ice cream tub. He decided to drop him off after the night party seeing his lunatic condition. Leonus took both those things from his friend and stepped out of the car only to stumble on his feet. "Leo, you are too drunk to walk alone. Let me help you." Lucas said, coming out of the car and grabbing his shudders to stop him from falling down. "I am fine, You can leave Lucas. I got it," he said, pushing his friend away from him. Lucas nodded and left from there with his car while Leonus walked to his room hiding from his mother. Recently, she was always scolding him for the way he treats Dinara. The girl was a major pain in his ass. Well not only in his ass but his head too. He shook his head as he tried to clear his head of the disturbing thoughts about Dinara. "The plan is simple, Leo. Give her the things and walk out of the room immediately. Give he
His brows pulled together as he looked at her with confusion. This girl always throws him into a chaotic disturbance. “What will you try?” “Unloving you! Love can't be controlled, Leonus. It has its own mind, it just happens. I fell in love with you at the very first sight. But for you, I will try anything. But you have to help me with this? Tell me how you got over your girlfriend in the past. You see, I am new in this field as I only have one man in my entire life and that's you. So you must be experienced, hubby. Please teach me how to unlove you.” She pouted and Leonus could only stare at her like she was an alien.“Please tell me,” She tapped his chest and guided his arm under her head before lying beside him carefully. She was practically half lying on him but Leonus didn't mind. He let her do whatever she wanted. His eyes flickered as sleep was knocking in his mind and for the first time he didn't get angry over hearing about his girlfriend in someone’s mouth, Unknown to hi
Aria eyed the flying eagle tattoo on her wrist. Her hand was sore with all the needles used on it today. She traced every curve and every line of the eagle in the air. This was her crown, her dainty crown."Are you happy, Tigress?" Aleksandr asked as He came behind her and held her by the waist, pulling her into his arms. Aria smiled, and their eyes met in the window glass as she was standing near the window. "Very," she answered, looking straight into his eyes. His Beautiful ocean-blue eye. "What else do you want Aria? Tell me, Say it and it's yours. I want you to be happy with me. Whatever you want, it's yours."A slight frown came to her brows. "Why are you being so generous?" She asked as she turned around in his arms. His lips pulled into a small smile while his eyes were fixed on hers. "What do you think?" He asked instead of answering."I think you want to get laid. That's why you are being overly generous. But I am a woman who knows what she wants, Aleksandr. Be careful wit
"Arrest me?" He repeated slowly and Aria jerked hearing his words. For a moment, her breathing stopped. Diego, that sneaky bastard!"Val. The bastard," He muttered under his breath. "Fine, let them come inside. I don't want my guests to wait for me," He said tightly before ending the call. "What is it? What happened?" Aria asked as she stretched the sheet from her feet to cover herself.Aleksandr's jaws twitched as He cursed wildly. "That fucking commissioner! I am going to rip him apart." He growled as He got off his bed and went to his closet. Aria fisted her hands, her sharp nails dug into her palms. She peeled the sheet off her body, got out of the bed and followed Aleksandr to the closet. He was getting dressed in a plain white full-sleeved T-shirt and a black trousers while talking to someone.Aria donned into a modest nightdress of her own. She was angry and irritated with what was happening. Unlike other wives, Aria didn't cry. No, she was in fight mode. She wanted to see
"What are you doing?" Leonus asked when Dinara plopped on the couch beside him. His brows stretched together seeing her beaming face. Dinara moved close to Leonus and took his arm, “What does it look like, Baby?" She said with a smile etched to her face. "I am learning baking for you. Your mother told me how much you love cakes. See I baked this cake especially for you. And just wait for tomorrow, you won't believe it after seeing my surprise.""Surprise, what surprise and You went to the kitchen again?" Leonus asked, with a bewildered expression on his face. "I told you not to go there."Dinara rolled her eyes to him, "stop taunting me about that incident again and again. It's a long time ago and your mother has been teaching me how to cook since then," she smiled and blew him a kiss. "You see baby, cooking is the least of the things I can do for you. I can bring you the stars and moon from the sky if you want."Leonus sighed mentally. It had been two days since that night he lost
