Her Volkovs #Book 3

Belle's POV

"Madame?" Yuri asked when he noticed my silent sobs. I'm trying to face the opposite direction to hide my tears from him but the man is quite persistent. He sat beside me in bed, enveloped his arms around my waist and softly pulled me toward him. He then held my chin to make me face him.

"The Boss is heading back to the hotel as we speak." He continued gently. Using is other hand, he took a hanky from his chest pocket and wipes it on my face.

This man is really sweet. Well, all of Nikolai's men I guess. They are frightening to say the least, given that they are mobsters but there's a side of them that people dont get to see. They are affectionate and gentle. And they care a lot, especially when it comes to the Mafia, our family.

"Yuri. I'm fine, you don't have to do this."

It's as if he did not hear me, he just continues wiping my face.

Seconds later Nikolai came barging in the room. I was able to gather a tiny amount of strength to get up on my knees and throw myself to him. Nikolai instantly wrapped his arms around my back and pulled me to a tight embrace.

"Nikolai! Where did you go? When I woke up you were gone!"

"Shhh.. I'm here baby. Everything's gonna be okay."

"But where did you go?!"

"You wanted space, so I gave you space even if it was against my damn instincts."

Right. What is wrong with you crazy woman!

Nikolai removed himself from the embrace and cupped my face. He made small kisses on my lips, nose and around my face like he really missed me. It hasnt been that long since he left but why does it feel like its been forever?

"Now, where else do you want to go? After Moscow, do you want to go to Paris? How about Milan?"

"I want to go back to New York, Nikolai."

He sighed, "Baby, if this is about what happened--"

"It's done. I have made my decision. I want to go back to New York and I want to start anew. Just the two of us Nikolai. I'm fine in a small house or at the penthouse. Wherever you choose I don't care, just as long as it will only be us. You, me and our baby."
