Her Volkovs #Book 1 novel Chapter 39

Belle's POV

After telling the story, a long somber silence filled the air. I can hear from the other side of the door that Amy is weeping. I found myself tearing as well.

I run my palm to wipe the tears off of my face.

"It's okay if you won't talk to me. I'll just give away these VIP tickets for Dara's concert. I won't be enjoying without you anyway."

I suddenly heard a gasp of surprise from Amy.

"Yup! VIP tickets, Dara concert and a chance to meet them in person, but you know, my bestfriend wont talk to me. What a waste." I teased Amy even more.

I then slip the tickets through the tiny gap between the door and the floor. I wiggled the tickets first then placed them still. A few seconds later I see that the tickets are being pulled from the inside. A smile is now forming on my face.

Moments later the door slowly opened. Amy and I are now face to face. She's looking at me intently while a smile is forming on her face.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!" We squealed in unison.

Amy and I hugged each other tight and jumped in gladness. All of a sudden Dylan, Ivan and Vasily quickly ran inside to see what has happened. Ivan and Vasily had guns in their hands. When they saw us, the two placed back their guns on their backs. Dylan just shook his head and smiled on us.

"I was not complete without you A."

"I know I know." Amy said arrogantly.

"The story you told, that was pretty tragic and too close to your reality B."

I just smiled at Amy in response. She doesn't know even half of my reality. Mine and Nikolai's reality.

She now places the tickets on her chest, hugging them tight.

"Thank you B!!!! This is sooooo awesome! Dara! The Dara!" She places her index and middle finger on the side of her eye in gladness.

I'm so happy to see Amy like this. I cant imagine my life without her. I owe a lot to my bestfriend. And I'm going to make it up to her the best way that I can.

"How did you get these? The show had been sold out months ago. And the event is by invitation only, what in the world did you do B?"

He looked at me like she realized something. "Oh right, you're the queen of the Russian Mafia, of course." Said Amy.

It was Alexei actually. I just requested the tickets from him and in just a few hours, I already have them in my hands. The perks of being around the kings of the underground world.

"Hey let's have lunch A. Look!" I raised the lunch bag Nikolai sent for me.

"Whats that?" Amy said. Her eyebrows are crinkled while pouting her lips.

"My lunch. Nikolai sent it for me." I don't know why but I'm so happy and proud because of the lunch sent for me by Nikolai.

Amy shook her head."That Nikolai got it bad for you B. And look at you, you look like a lovesick unicorn." I giggled in response.

After eating our lunch, we left Ivan and Vasily to eat as well in the kitchen. Amy and I are now in our room cuddling.

"Hey A, I have a proposal to make but I want you to say yes before you could even hear what I have to say."

"Yes B. I want to marry you. We will be a one big happy family. I will act as the father and you will be the mother, considering your boobs and all, you can sufficiently produce milk that could feed a whole tribe of African kids."

My lips parted to Amy's silliness. "A!!!!! Stop fooling around and leave my breasts alone. I am being serious here!"

Amy laugh out loud like a crazy hyena.

"Fine fine, geez, calm yo tits B!" She looks at me teasingly. "Calm yo tits, see what I did there?" She continued. Yup, my bestfriend is back to her crazy self.

"What if we fly Ana here? I'll take care of everything. What do you think?"

"B, Ana is okay. I called her doctor and he said she's now recovering."

Oh my gosh, my heart is suddenly filled with joy. "Really? I'm so happy to hear that A!!!"

"She responded well to the meds after the stroke. She's just gonna be fine. In fact we talked a few hours before you arrived. She doesn't want me to come home yet B. She's happy that my brother and I are here together."

We were interrupted by a knock on the door. It's Dylan and he looks fresh from the shower. He is wearing a black shirt and jeans. He opened the door slightly to speak.

"Belle, can we talk?"

"Sure Dy. Come." I signaled him to sit beside me. Amy attempted to stand up and go out of the room.

"No A. The two outside will tell Nikolai that Dylan and I are left alone in a room. I will have a hard time explaining to Nikolai. He's not really that open minded kind of guy."

"You mean B1 and B2 outside? Don't worry I'll hide at Dylan's room." Amy let's out a wink. I just chuckle at Amy's silliness.

I scooted over to sit on the corner of the bed. Dylan sat right beside me while holding my hand.

"Belle, I'm going to tell you the whole truth. I have been carrying this in my heart and it's slowly eating me up."

"What do you mean Dy?"

"The time that you saw me with another girl. I had to do it. I had to end our relationship that night. I didn't have a choice. I was up against the whole Russian mob, they threatened to kill me and everyone close to me if I didn't let you go."

"Yadda yadda, you talk too much B. Shush!"

Dylan is in our bed, lying on his side while resting his head on his palm. He is looking at us all amused.

"Belle is beautiful just the way she is Ames, there's no need for that." Said Dylan butting in.

I glanced at Dylan while smiling at him. Dylan winks at me in response.

"Could you two just shush!"

A giggle escaped my mouth because of Amy. Her neck veins are already showing because of frustration.

"Love you A."

Dylan softly chuckles as he exits the room while looking at our direction.

I'm looking at the bracelet Alexei gave me. It's just too beautiful. The little diamonds hanging around the bracelet and the red daisy ruby pendant are glittering like stars in the night sky. I then held the necklace my Nikolai gave me. He placed it back on me after I got out of the shower this morning. I know this necklace has a more perverted and stalkerish purpose but I allowed Nikolai to put it back on anyway. To be honest, I feel safer knowing that my Nikolai is with me anywhere I go.

"You're done B!" Amy said excitedly. I looked at myself in the mirror and was instantly amazed by the magic my bestfriend was able to do to my hair. Wow, I never thought a medium length hair would actually look good in me.

Ivan knocked on the door and entered the room.

"Madamme, it's the Boss."

I took the phone from him and answered the call.

"Nikolai.."

"I have been calling you." Nikolai sounds like his patience is running out.

"You know baby, you really pull nerves in my body I never thought existed. Is this your way of punishing me?" Said Nikolai. Geeez what has gotten into him?

"Nikolai, I still wasn't able to check my phone. I'm sure it's just around here somewhere."

Amy handed my phone to me which she took from the drawer on our right side.

"I'm here." Nikolai said. My heart suddenly jumped from my chest. Nikolai's here.

I'm quite nervous because finally Amy and Dylan will formally meet Nikolai, the Russian Mafia Boss himself, on the flesh.
