Her Volkovs #Book 1

Belle's POV

We are in the car on our way to the beach party thrown for Nikolai. Alexei is in the front passenger seat talking to someone on the phone while Boris is the driver. I'm sitting on Nikolai's lap while checking the papers of the kids. Nikolai on the other hand have been sniffing and kissing my hair, my neck, my ear, my shoulder and sometimes my boobs. I don't get to spend a lot of time with him so I will make the most out of this day. It's his very special day so I just allow him to do whatever he wants, besides I really enjoy Nikolai's playfulness, I'm not complaining.

"Your flower smells good baby." Oh my god I know that Nikolai is talking about the small flower clipped on my hair but that did not sound innocent at all. I heard Alexei chuckle in front. I felt my face turn crimson. These two really enjoy embarrassing me. I hurl to Alexei the pen that I am holding. It just hit his chest. I quickly removed myself from Nikolai and grabbed the pen back from Alexei. While half of my body is already on Alexei I pointed to him the flower Nikolai was talking about.

"Nikolai is talking about this flower A-lex-ei!" I pronounced each syllable slowly. To my horror Alexei sniffed the flower as well.

"Hmmm, you're right Boss, her flower indeed smells good." This time I heard Nikolai chuckle. I parted my lips in disbelief. These two are too much! I smack Alexei on his shoulder and when I got back on Nikolai's lap, I smack him with the papers that I'm holding. Nikolai lets out a laugh and just went back on running his fingers through my hair.

The cars pulled over. Yuri and others went out of the first SUV and waited for us to alight. There are a lot of black cars parked around the house. I can already hear the music coming from the beach side. Alexei went out of the car first. I then removed myself from Nikolai's lap and placed the kids papers back to my bag.

Boris went out of the car and opened the door for us. Nikolai held my hand while we walk towards Yuri and others.

Nikolai, Alexei, and Yuri talked to each other in Russian and looked all too serious. Geez I thought we are going to a party, why do they look like they are going to a gun fight or something?

Nikolai is holding my hand while I stand right beside him. He is wearing a white cotton shirt and loose cream colored pants. He's wearing sun glasses and his hair is disheveled by the wind. Damn baby, why you so damn hot? Alexei is on my other side. He's wearing a button down white shirt and the same loose cream colored pants. If I did not know better, I would think that these two are biological brothers.

When we entered the beach house, there are a few men and women our age and some perhaps a little older than us are talking and drinking. The moment they saw Nikolai, they all froze as if they saw God. All eyes are glued on Nikolai and his entourage. The look on their faces is puzzling. It's like a mix of awe and fear at the same time. Is Nikolai that frightening as a boss?
