Her Volkovs #Book 3

Belle's POV

Artan Bogdani. The Albanian Mob Boss. Nikolai Vyacheslav Volkov's arch-nemesis.

I flinched the moment our skin touched.

He grabbed me around my back and pinned me to his body rather abruptly and tightly. He then wrapped his palm around my neck, up my nape and pulled my face to the side of his face. His thin beard is now touching my left cheek causing this inexplicable current running down my spine.

I pushed him away but he just pulled me even closer and tighter towards him.

"Don't touch me Artan! Go away!"

I hit him on his chest and kicked him many times but he grabbed my hands with his other hand and pulled my body with the other.

"Why won't you stop? I told you to stop! What else do you want? Nikolai and I are over! You have won! So please stop!"

My stupid tears are flowing again. I hate myself for crying. I want these tears to once and for all drain out of my system. I am so tired! My heart is crushed into tiny pieces and I don't know if I would still be able to recover. And the man caressing me right now is one of the reasons why I am going through this hell. I hate this man to the bone!

Artan remained still and quiet. He wiped the tears from my face but I instantly removed his hand off of me.

I hit him again and again until my body slowly gave up. My brain is in protest and wants me to storm out of the room at this very moment, but my heart says otherwise. For some inexplicable reason, Artan's touch and warm embrace made me feel safe and at ease despite my hatred towards him.

Slowly, my body relaxed. My heart refused to put up a fight. I have completely lost my ability to defend myself from the situation.

Artan's tight grip slightly loosens but with enough strength to effectively immobilize my weak body and to let me know that he is now in control. He kept quiet. His actions spoke louder than words.

I breathed Artan's scent as I slowly rest my head on his arm. My eyelids grew heavier by the second. I flickered my eyes trying to save myself from completely drifting off but I failed.

A's POV

I slowly closed the door and ran towards my brother.

"Ames, shhh..... It's okay." He said, gentle as always.

I burried my face on his chest. I had a feeling that this will work. I just did not realize how difficult this must be for my bestfriend. I'm afraid that by putting her in this situation, I may have caused more harm than good to her.

"It's done. She's asleep now. Your plan worked, why are you crying?"

"Nothing." I said.

Of course I lied. I can't tell him how bad I feel about him and my bestfriend. I feel like I have betrayed both of them at the same time. I just can't imagine how hard this is for my brother as well. Seeing the woman he loves with his own Boss because of his sister's own doing. Just the thought of it makes me want to scream at myself.

"I'm sorry Dylan. I'm sorry. I just want to protect you and B."

"Let's not talk about it Ames. What's important is that she's going to be fine. And the baby is going to be fine too if Belle regains her strength. What you need to do now is to be stronger for her. You know, the Ames that I have always known times ten."

My brother is right, I should be stronger for B. She has no one else but me and my brother and maybe Artan to depend on. She is pregnant and got cheated on by her lovers. She needs all the help that she can get. "Okay." I said as I wipe the tears from my eyes.

I glanced at the other Albanian men in the living room. I just can't help but marvel at how intimidating and not to mention, how sexy they look, including the one named Dardan. I think he is the one wearing a perfectly tailored suit just like his Boss and just like how that Yuri the Russian would always look like. I think they are the most trusted by their respective Bosses. They have the same umffff. You know what I mean?

She has become too dependent to the love and protection of the Ultra Boss and Extra Boss.
