Chapter One
Isadora
I froze in my seat as the words left my fathers mouth, my brain troubling to register if he was serious or not. Once I see no deception in his eyes I shoot up out of my chair Ты чертовски сумасшедший, если думаешь, что я выйду за него замуж I shout pissed off to the max. (You’re crazy if you think I’m going to marry him.)
I start to pace in front of his desk cursing lowly and he stands up with a unamused face. Stop throwing a tantrum Isadora Ive made up my mind and theres no changing it. If you want to take over my mafia you will marry Liev Rostova. I will not put you in the hot seat with no protection and Liev will be just that your protection he finishes strongly with his fist clenched to the side.
Папа- I begin but he cuts me off Dont dad me! My word is final Isadora I mean it. Accept it or kindly step down! he booms and I huff and sit down in the chairs in front of his desk. He leans forward and places both hands flat on the table Listen солнечный свет my intentions are not to burden you with a loveless marriage. My only intentions are keeping you safe at all costs. Now before the wedding I do have one last mission for you so you can clear your head. he pauses for me to catch up. (Dad/Sunshine)
I want you to get your team ready the Italians are getting in a shipment of guns totaling 30 million and I have an informant whos given me the blueprints of the routes. You need to leave tonight and once you get back we will announce the engagement and plan the wedding, after and ONLY after will I step down and let you both rule. He straightens up and fixes his suit satisfied with himself.
I give him my best pouty look and he huffs Listen my child Im not taking away your power. You will solely be the ruler of the mafia he will not override you. Dont think Im taking that away its your birth right and yours alone. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices for your lifestyle. You know I loved your mother dearly and our marriage was arranged as well. You will learn to love him my child he sits down and reaches into his desk pulling out a file.
He hands it over to me and I skim through it smiling snapping back to business. Consider it done I stand with the file and take out my phone dialing Alexei my second. Hey gorgeous, what do I owe the pleasure? he rasps half asleep making me roll my eyes. Gather the group we leave tonight and call the jet we are going to Rome. Targets three days out. I hang up before he can reply knowing full well he will do as I say.
Ill see you when I get back dad I smile and face him as I get to the door. He just nods and says Be safe. I smirk at him and open his office door muttering a Always on the way out. My heels clink on the marble floor as I walk the halls and up the stairs leading to my room. I push the double doors open not missing a step as I walk in. I can hear foot steps behind me and I instantly know who it is.
I enter my closet as he follows behind me Liev, do you have something to say? I question looking through my clothes picking out a few clubbing outfits along with black leggings and a long sleeve black shirt. He walks over and picks up one of my dresses and scoffs Why are you bringing outfits like this? he asks through gritted teeth. I roll my eyes and grab my velvety dress back throwing it inside my suitcase zipping it up before he can grab anything else like my lingerie.
I havent really had time for relationships much with training and such. My dad and I might be closer now but when I was little and in training he wasn’t so nice. Actually he was my nightmare. I wasnt a total prude though Liev and I have messed around as far as oral but nothing beyond that. We were raised close almost like they’ve been pushing us together since birth so it only came natural that we experimented together but I never let him penetrate me not even with his fingers. The lingerie was solely for me, I feel empowered when I wear it even though no ones seeing it I know its there.
Please Liev, we arent married yet. And even when we are I promise you, you wont be telling me what I can and cannot do or wear. Im not some submissive woman you can boss around Im about to be a leader of a whole mother fucking mafia and I wont tolerate disrespect from my own husband I say turning to face him to show just how serious I really am. He stares at me for a moment before nodding his head and walking closer to me.
He reaches out and pulls my waist making me come closer to him. He uses his fingertips to run up my body as he half sits on a dresser with me pressed against his front. I can’t deny this man is definitely attractive and from what little we’ve done sexually I know he will be good in bed. So what’s the issue? I think the fact that my choice has been stripped from me is making me feel the resentment for him.
He leans in and presses his lips to mine holding me in place by my waist. He trails kisses down my jaw to my neck but as he gets to the nape of my neck I snap out of it by clearing my throat and backing up. “The jets waiting for me now I have to go Liev” I pick up my suitcase and tuck one of my guns in my waist band and the other in a strap on my leg under my dress that also held about ten knives.
Knives were my specialty I could accurately throw a knife with my eyes closed and hit my target. Liev stands up and I can see the obvious bulge in his pants. “Sorry Isadora I get carried away sometimes you know that. I know you want to wait until we get married and that’s fine with me. He smiles at me and pulls me in for a hug but he creeps me out when he inhales my scent for a little to long to be cute.
“Well okay I’m going to go now I’ll be back soon” I mumble and jester for him to leave and he does just that, he follows me down the steps telling me to be careful and to call him. Honestly I tuned out his speech after the first couple sentences because well hes irritating. But once I reach the bottom step I cut off his ridiculous rambling Liev Im going to be okay and Ill be back in one week! The first shipment is due in three days and the second a couple days after that than we will be home. I shrug and he gives me a look.
Isadora watch your six okay? I cant have my fiance dying before we even plan the wedding he raises his hand and touches my cheek before leaning in and kissing me. I let him. I start to slowly kiss him back and he flicks his tongue against my lower lip and instantly they open allowing him access. He grabs the back of my head pushing me closer into his body as our tongues start moving in syn together.
The sound of someone clearing there voice breaks us apart and there stands my smirking father. So I guess this wedding wont be so bad huh? he says cockily. I roll my eyes and give him a hug Ill be back soon dad I say as I release him and grab my bag. Liev pulls open the door to the backyard where the air strip is and where the jets waiting for me. The team should already be loaded up in the jet waiting for me.
Bye guys I say as I roll the suitcase behind me headed for the blacked out jet without looking back. I heard their goodbyes but I kept my focus on the mission. Alexei, Anastasia, Ilya, Ivan and Sasha all sat bickering and Anastasia was laying cross Alexeis lap. I let the flight attendant take my bag to storage in my room and plop down on the couch next to Alexei. Anastasia puts her legs across my lap and falls back asleep half snoring.
Shes so lazy I laugh directing it at Alexei making him chuckle. Well not to brag but I think I knocked her out before you got here he winks and I gag. Oh no Lex to much info dude I pretend to puke as he starts laughing loudly. Once I sit back up Ivan sits in front of me with a smirk. So what are our stats? he asks me leaning back his head back resting his eyes.
Well its about.. I look at my watch seven fifteen by the time we take off, It will be about seven thirty we will be traveling at about 434.49 knots making our travel time about 3 hours and twenty minutes so our arrival time should be about ten fifty perfect time to hit the club I smile and Ivan smiles big enough to reach his eyes.
Perfect you know how much I like to party Anastasia sits up instantly and yawns stretching her arms above her head. Were going to the club first thing and maybe you can try to take me home she says as she grabs Alexeis tie and pulls him to her. Okay gross I say as I stand up and start walking to the back.
Ivan is my dirty little secret. My plaything and Im the same to him. I know I have to save penetration for marriage its a huge deal in my culture and hes respected that but doesnt mean we cant do other stuff. One thing he loves above all else is pussy and hes amazing with his tongue. Way better than Liev.
Im going to lay down for awhile before we land seeing how we will be having a long night tonight. I say and Ivan gives me this look and I almost take him up on his unvoiced offer but mouth a later instead, to which he nods and bites his lip. I look to Anastasia who watches our exchange with a knowing smirk and I just smile and walk into my room crashing onto the bed to kill three hours.
