The day went on while Lia tries to ignore the murmurs around her. Only Cristy and Caleb, well aside from her security, were not anxious around her.As the Mafia boss' wife, people seem to expect her to threaten everyone around her."Can you stop surprising us? My weak heart could only take much" playfully, Cristy whispered while they are walking towards the cafeteria amid the curious and anxious glances around."My life is interesting, I can't help it" winking at her friend, she teasingly retorted.Scoffs escape the two and with Cristy's rolling eyes. "Although I'm quite liking the situation. We are part of your fame. The Mafia Boss's wife's friends. Who dares to mess with us now, huh?" acting playfully haughty, Cristy raves subtly. "Silly" Lia amusingly chuckles."Lia, your family and your husband are the most powerful people in this country, more than those politicians. Haven't you realized your value? And as your friends, everyone would also fear us. Let's see if our haughty neig
"Amelia..." Vasily whines after being awakened by the hand playing his half-hard member. "Hmm...I will just hold" with her muffled voice, she sleepily retorted. Taking a deep breath, he tries to go back to sleep but her hand kept on moving, stroking his most sensitive vein. "You want?" he whispers as he nibbles her ears. He could make love to her if she wanted to just to have his good night's sleep."I'm so sleepy, baby. Maybe tomorrow" she softly counters. "But you are playing with it. It's awake now" huskily, he whispers. "I am not doing anything. I can sleep better while holding this little fellow here" she responded while getting settled inside his embrace. Her hand is gently playing with his now, rock-hard erection. "Arghh...Amelia. This torture again" he growls, controlling his desire to sheath himself into her tightness. This has been going on for several days now. He can't sleep well with her hand wrapped around his member. They have made love earlier but it seems not
"Baby, I think we have to get ready to leave" carefully, Lia reminded her husband who froze on his feet, staring at her. But it's been a while since she has been grimacing but he remains unmoving. "Vasili, really we need to leave. This little fellow here is excited to come out" she added and this time it's more demanding. "Amelia..." he whispers in panic."Yes, baby..." doing her breathing exercise, she gently coaxes her husband."What...what will I do?" dazed, he anxiously asks. "You call Manuel to prepare the car. We will leave for the facility since your son is about to come out. Make it quick, please" she gently responded.And just like that, he darted to the door like a herd of devils is chasing him. And despite the pain getting unbearable, she can't help but chuckle at Vasili's antics. She hasn't seen him panic until today. "Manuel!!""Prepare the car!""My baby is coming!"Like a fire just erupted the entire house immediately came into life. Men dashed around when his voic
Carl and Lyon rushed inside to find a somehow normal scene inside a delivery room.Lia is on the hospital bed with the lower half of her body concealed by a hanged surgical cloth, for privacy. While her doctor is standing between her wide-open legs while two nurses assist her. The midwife and her assistant are cleaning the newborn heir nearby. While the pediatrician is closely monitoring. What's unusual about the scene is Vasili being slumped atop Lia's chest while a nurse is holding him still. They could see her placing gentle kisses on his face while saying something they could not hear.Vasili, on the other hand, looks lethargic on his spot, seeming to be asleep. "What happened?" Larry, who is closely following behind, asks upon seeing the scene."Vasili fainted" Lia was the one to explain despite her constricted breath, not from giving birth but from the heaviness of Vasili's top body slumped on her chest. Earlier, they are both enjoying their newborn right after he came out,
It's been a week since baby Eric was born and the mansion has never been the same again. Every day they would have visitors, checking on them. Either a Petrov or a Wright. Lyon and Kara also request to see them often. The baby's powerful cry would always reverberate in four corners of the room, especially during the days that his father is not around. Amelia doesn't mind him crying as long as he is not hungry or needs a diaper change. But whenever Vasili is around, everyone seems to be on pins and needles. He always worries about his son's crying. Vasili would glare at everyone once he hears his son cry. As if crying would endanger baby Eric. His over-protectiveness is making Amelia crazy. "Why can't they make baby Eric settle? He is always crying. Do we need to replace the team?" Vasili mumbles one morning. They are at the balcony lounge for Eric's daily dose of sunshine. He is sleeping naked atop his father's bare chest. Hearing what he said made Amelia more incredulous. She no
A month after she gave birth and with Vasili at home for their baby, she went to meet with her friends. She was reluctant to go out but Vasili insisted, saying she should have time for herself.And after some earnest deliberation with herself, she decided to go. Every second of being a mother is priceless but she needs time to be with friends to maintain her balance. Inside the cafe, they usually visit, they get settled beside the glass wall. It has an overlooking view of the riverside across the main road of Cape City. Unlike Vasili, her security remains to be in disguised whenever she is in public. She doesn't want to get attention as much as she could handle. She is not a public figure like her husband. Only two of her civilian security were inside with her, having their coffee. The rest were outside, they blend with bystanders at the nearby park and some were inside the vehicle, watching the entire area. Though she was featured in different news portals with Vasili, she is stil
With the robbers' attention focused on the officers and how they could hide from them, Lia quietly sneaked in between the tables.Until she reached the wall separating the restroom from the main room, no one from the assailants noticed her. She moves without disturbing the air along the way. A true-blooded Stepanov, without shadow in the dark and without footprints on any ground. It's a perfect afternoon that turned out bloody. People hiding from whatever could conceal them have started to gather outside, watching the scene from the glass wall. Media people have started to arrive, getting footage through their high-resolution cameras. Peeking to find the five men hiding at the counter, she has no clear sight of them but the two small feet hanging from the man's grasp of the child. Her security remain unmoving on their spot but was ready to assist her, while Caleb remains to hug Cristy with his back facing the counter. "Get out of here or I will finish this girl first and her broth
As expected, the robbers went out to the waiting police officers across the exit. Media personnel is afar together with the curious crowd. "Shit" they all mutter. One of them got hold of the cashier with the gun pointed at her side. "Please..." she quivers in fear. "Nothing will happen to you if these bastards here will just cooperate with us" the man snickers. "This is Captain Seville, let's talk" one of the officers speaks with his hands raised in the air. He is making certain the robbers know he is unarmed. "We don't need pleasantries Captain. We need a vehicle" the man jeers. "The vehicle is being prepared, it will arrive any minute" calmly, he explains. "We don't have a minute. A minute passed, also a bullet for these two here" snickering, he retorted. The crazed look in his eyes was noted by the Captain. "Don't hurt the innocent, it would be a grave mistake" calm yet firm, the officer warned. "I don't fucking care. Where's the vehicle?" he sneers before he angrily raves.
