Her Volkovs #Book 4

Belle's POV

"Did we ever make you feel like those things that you said?" Alexei asked, taking my hand, holding it tight, and connecting the back of my hand to his lips.

Of course not, they never made me feel that way. But maybe I'm feeling this way because of my bottled up frustration over my so-called 'wedding'.

"I'm just saying. You don't even have rings on your fingers or anything to show that both of you are mine! That you are not available anymore because you are wed to me. These women just throw themselves at you because they are thinking that they can still bed the bachelor Volkov brothers of the Russian Mafia." I continued.

"Baby...I'm sorry okay? I can order new rings from the jeweler? Or maybe you want to go shopping for the rings later? Alexei and I will come with." Nikolai said as he grabs me by my waist with both of his hands.

"No it's fine. I'm sorry. I'll just go to the privy. Excuse me." I said, partly ashamed of myself for the meltdown and partly pissed that they think it's just about the ring. It's more than that.

"No one is leaving this table until we are finished talking about what you just said." Says Nikolai in a commanding voice, as if he's just talking to one of his men.

"I am your wife, not one of your men Nikolai."

"Damn right you're my wife! That's why you get to do things to me I normally would not let pass like shooting me, drugging me with a wrong fucking pill, and don't ever think I already forgot that you once clocked me in the head, I got stitches from it!" He answered in all conviction while pointing at his upper brow. "Who does that to Volkov? No one but you, my beautiful stubborn and moody wife."

Nope. Stop it Belle. Don't give in. Hold your ground. Stop recalling those terrible things you did to him that almost cost his life a couple of times.

I smack him on his shoulder as hard as I can and walked away because I'm on the verge of getting mad and giving in at the same time. Goddammit!

The night when Belle got away from Alexei in the pool and snuggled in bed with Nikolai until she fell asleep in his arms, soaking wet.

Alexei: (holding the pool chair to cover his crotch) I can't believe she just left me in the pool alone and naked.

Nikolai: She's shaking, she really thought you're mad at her.
