Her Volkovs #Book 2

Belle's POV

When I woke up, I'm already in between Nikolai and Alexei. I'm facing Nikolai while Alexei is spooning me, his face is buried on my nape.

Nikolai is already awake and he is looking at my face. How long has this man been awake? I slowly remove myself from him. Alexei moved and laid on his back right next to me. "Baby...." Said Nikolai.

He tried to hold my hand but I instantly remove my hand from his. To be perfectly honest. I'm disgusted by Nikolai right now. God knows what he must have done in Boston with that woman. And the fact that she and Nikolai look perfect for each other in the picture, adds to this anger I'm feeling inside. Yrina and Nikolai look like they are meant for each other. She's beautiful, elegant and she doesn't look like she has a pint of fat on her body. Me on the other hand is just a fat girl from a third world country.

I faced Alexei and kiss him on his lips.

"Morning Alexei."

"Morning princess." Alexei glanced at Nikolai as he greets me back.

"Can I borrow your phone Alexei?"

Alexei took his phone from the side table and handed it to me. I'm on my stomach on top of Alexei as I text Amy.

"I'll have Yuri get you another phone." Said Nikolai butting in.

"No need. I'll buy one on my own so you won't feel entitled to break it into pieces again." I said coldly without looking at Nikolai who is now sitting while facing us.

"Whether you buy it on your own or not, I will still destroy it if I want to." Said Nikolai. Alexei looks at Nikolai like he's telling him something. Alexei closed his eyes and places his palm on his forehead in frustration.

"Do whatever you want Nikolai." I said. There's no point in arguing with him. This is Nikolai, being Nikolai.

I walked in the bathroom while Nikolai is still talking.

"That Albanian motherfucker was calling you! Did you just expect me to stand around while that bastard is trying to snatch you from me? From Volkov?"

"So you conveniently went to Boston without telling me because of that? Its your own way of getting back at me?"

"I told you, I went there for business and for my father!"

"I don't want to talk about it anymore Nikolai. I'm done talking about it." I said while raising my hand as I walk my way to the bathroom.

"Fuck!" Yelled Nikolai again.

NIKOLAI AND ALEXEI IN THE DINING AREA. BELLE ALREADY LEFT FOR SCHOOL.

Alexei looking at Nikolai while shaking his head.

Nikolai: What?!

Alexei: You're burying yourself in deeper shit brother. I thought you have a plan?

Nikolai: She's driving me mad.

Alexei sighs.

Alexei: I feel you brother.

Nikolai signaled Yuri to come over.

Nikolai: Buy all the flowers at the flowershop across the street. Have them delivered at once. Tell the chef to cook her favorite food and make sure he takes note of her allergies. Prepare the private jet. Tell the pilot we are going across the pacific.

Alexei: About damn time brother.

Nikolai took a sip from his cup.

Alexei: Did you see how mad she was at you bro?

Nikolai: Yes. (Nikolai recalls the time when Belle was glistening with sweat and flushing because of anger. Her nipples mark from her shirt. Her boobs are bouncing up and down as she mashes the flour dough.)

Alexei: I know what you're thinking brother. (Alexei recalls Belle's beautiful face. Several strands of her hair are on her face while glistening with sweat. Her boobs are bouncing, her ass is wiggling as she smashes the dough and would occasionally bend giving him a full view of her bountiful ass.)

"Fuck." Alexei and Nikolai said in unison.

Yuri cleared his throat snapping Nikolai and Alexei from their thoughts.

Yuri: Is that all Boss?

Nikolai adjusts his tie.

Nikolai: Bring high-grade guns from the warehouse. Her father collects guns. Call matushka about her gift to Belle's mom. What else do we know about her family?

Yuri: Her father is the former governor general during the military regime in their country. He stepped down from his rule when the people established a civilian government. Madame Volkov was the first daughter.

Alexei: Well shit. (Alexei snorts while looking at Nikolai)

Nikolai: Why have I not been informed about this?

Yuri: Governor General Galves hid his family from the media and from the public. I knew about the information that the former Governor General Galves and Madamme's father are one and the same, just a few days ago. I'm sorry for not telling you earlier Boss.

Nikolai: What else are you not telling me Yuri?

Nikolai looks at Yuri sternly.

Yuri: I'm sorry Boss.

Alexei: I think I know exactly the person to ask about our Belle.

Alexei and Nikolai looked at each other as if knowing who Alexei is talking about.

Nikolai: Call her and have Boris pick her up.

"Meeeeeh".... (Gaotie enters the dining room)

Nikolai snorts.

Nikolai: She stole that fucking animal?

Alexei: Hahaha! Yes. You should have seen her, you would have been really proud. She's a natural bro. She really belongs O us.

"Meeeeeh"

Nikolai pushes the goat with his foot when goatie tried to munch on his trouser.

Nikolai: This animal has a problem with me.

Alexei: Haha, don't touch it bro or she will punish us.

Nikolai: Ill feed that damn animal to Petrushka and Valkir

Alexei shakes his head in amusement.

Nikolai: Have you visited them?

Alexei: Yes. They are doing good although I heard they tried to eat one of the worker's limbs.

Nikolai: (Nikolai snorts.) Will the renovations finish on time?

Alexei: Yes. They better finish it on time.

I went to school without eating breakfast because for one, I don't want to see Nikolai's face, and two I feel like not eating at all. I'm at my desk, my kids are having a coloring activity. Ivan and Vasily are just outside waiting for me and making sure I'm safe from my serial killer kids. Ugh! I swear, sometimes, wait wait...most of the time, Nikolai can be very unreasonable.

I paced towards the door and faced Vasily.

"Vasily can I borrow your phone?"

He instantly took his phone from his jacket but doesn't look me in the eyes. He looked straight ahead without even glancing at me.

"Thanks." I said. What is up with him? He's acting weird as of late.

I tried to call Amy a while ago but her phone was busy. I am dialing her now but she's not answering my call. I wonder what she's up to. I'm pretty sure she doesn't have work today.

I decided to call Dylan.

"Dy? It's Belle."

"Belle? What's up? New number?"

"Uh nope, I borrowed Vasily's phone. Are you at home? Is Amy there?"

"I'm not home Belle, have you tried calling her?"

"Yes, but she's not answering. Anyway, she must be busy with something."

"Maybe, hey it's nice that you called. I need to tell you something."

"Oh, what about Dy?"

"About Artan."

My heart jumps by just a mention of Artan's name. I crinkled my eyebrows.

"What about him?"

"We talked the other night at the auction. He offered me to work for him."

"Oh, but you know who Artan is right?"

"Yes, but if you dont want me to work for him...."

"No Dy, its just that...."

"The Russians and the Albanians hate each other." Said Dylan.

I let out a soft chuckle. "Kind of, although they have been friends for many years."

"He wants my answer today Belle."

"Dylan, don't let me decide for you. Whatever your decision is, I will always be here for you."

"I know my Belle."

"Just take care Dy and if you need me you can count on me."

"Even if you get into trouble with that big headed Alexei?" Dylan said with disgust as he mentions Alexei's name.

"Dy, both of you are important to me."

"I'm not as important to you.."

"Dy..."

"I have to go Belle. I love you."

"Love you Dy, take care."

After the call I returned Vasily's phone.

"Here, thanks Vasily."

He did not answer me, he just nods and ignored me again.

Several minutes before the end of our class, I suddenly heard a small bell sound. My kids were able to hear it as well. They instantly looked at the door's direction. Their eyes widened and lips parted as if seeing something really interesting. They then stood from their seats and ran towards whatever it is at the back. When I turned to face my kids, I realized they are surrounding Goatie. He looks really clean. It has a pink ribbon wrapped around its neck with a small bell on it and a note.

"Meeeeeh....."

"Awwww...." My kids said in unison while surrounding Goatie and touching it.

How did goatee reach here?

I excused myself and squatted to face goatee. I then took the note from his neck.

"I'm sorry."
