Belle's POV
After taking a bath in a bathroom half as big as my former apartment, I went downstairs for breakfast. It took me a while to find the dining room, if not for the fact that I called out for Yuri, I would still be roaming around lost in our own home.
Our home. I can't believe Nikolai and I are really starting a new life in this mansion. I know I should be happy since we are going to start our own family but why do I feel incomplete? I feel discontent. And I hate myself for feeling this way.
Nikolai, my husband, the father of my baby, deserves my undivided love and attention. I love the man with all my heart, body and soul. It would be unfair to him if his own wife is unhappy despite of his absolute and unconditional love.
"Madame? Are you okay? You did not touch your food. Did you want anything else? Tell me and Ill have it done for you." Asked Yuri, interrupting my thoughts.
"I'm not hungry Yuri. You and the boys go ahead. I just need some air, excuse me." I stood up from my chair and made my way outside.
The sunlight and cool wind instantly hugged me like it's telling me that everything is going to be fine. Or maybe I'm just wishing that everything is going to be fine.
As what I expected, outside the mansion are several acres of land beautifully landscaped victorian style. There are cascading fountains, well maintained topiaries, flower boxes, small statues mostly of wolves.
Yuri said that there are a few acres of untouched lands where I get to decide what to do with. He also said that on the other side of the mansion is the man made lake, infinity pool and a mini forest. There's also an enclosed structure where Nikolai and Alexei are keeping their sports cars and other toys for the big boys. I did not investigate any further.
While sitting on one of the concrete steps in front of the mansion my heart suddenly lit up when I saw three black SUVs pulling up the drive way.
When the SUVs pulled over right in front of the mansion the men instantly went down one by one while Boris opened the door of the SUV in the middle.
My husband stepped down, with his usual godly charm. He walked towards my direction and hugged me instantly. God he smells so good!
"I'm sorry I had to leave last night. How's my queen and my tiny Volkov?" He asked while cupping my face.
"I'm fine Nikolai, I'm just not used to waking up without you and Al-- uhm. What I mean is--"
Nikolai connected his lips to mine while I grope for the right words to save myself from saying his brother's name.
