Her Volkovs #Book 2 novel Chapter 13

Belle's POV

Amy and I held hands as we walk out of Nikolai's office. We went past the table where Grace was sitting. I smiled at her and she smiles back faintly. I also glanced at the other two, probably Natasha and Patrick but they just quickly glanced at me and looked away.

Ivan and Vasily followed us from behind.

The office building is actually really huge. We took the elevator going down. When we exited the elevator, to the left is the reception area. There are two women sitting and talking. They have headphones on them. On the wall at the back is a gold Volkov Holdings name. There are also a couple of men standing, probably the security detail in the building.

"Hey A, what did you say to the two?" It just doesn't feel right, she must have said something to them.

"I just warned Nikolai not to hurt you or else." Amy punched her palm like she can hurt my Nikolai. My bestfriend is just so adorable.

The black SUV is waiting for us already. Ivan then opened the car door for us.

While in the car I told Amy about what happened on the race track with Artan and what he did to me in the privy. We spoke our native language so that Ivan and Vasily won't be able to understand.

After several gasping and profanities coming out from Amy's mouth, I was surprised when she dropped her head on my femme and smells me.

"What are you doing!?"

"B, you must be emitting some kind of a gangster pheromone or something." Amy said.

"Gangster pheromone? You're crazy A."

"Yes, It's a pheromone that only the mafia or the mob can smell. You are ripe and out for the taking B!"

I just shook my head at Amy. Her wild imagination is doing it again.

"Kidding aside B, you are having one hell of a New York life aren't ya?"

I chuckled. "No words can explain A."

"So how was Artans kiss?"

My eyes widened in horror. "Don't mention his name A!"

"Ooops...so how was it?"

"I did not enjoy a single bit A." I said as a matter of factly.

"What does he look like?"

"Human being."

"B!"

"Can we just change the topic please A? I promised my future husband that the guy will not come between the two of us anymore. Not even a mention of his or his daughter's name."

It pains me to completely ignore Aria but Amy is right, I have to make a choice and I'm choosing Nikolai. It breaks my heart to do this but I have already promised my future husband, and I'm planning to fulfill that promise.

"Hmm fine! How about Alexei I'm sure I'm allowed to say his name."

I just smiled at her.

"The three of you. You have this weird body language. It's like....ugh I can't find the right word B!"

"Then don't overthink things A!"

"You are keeping something from me B! I just can feel it!" Amy said intensely.

"A, we are here to have a girl time. And guess what?"

"What?"

"You can buy whatever you want to buy, all on me."

"Hmmm....see! You're bribing me so that I won't insist on the truth! Spill it B!"

I then inhaled deep.

"Hmmm can you smell that A?"

"What?"

"The smell of pure Italian leather bag and oh what's that, hmm...that Larey Make up kit you have been wanting to buy since what? Tenth grade?"

"You are...ah! Let's go B!" Amy is squealing in gladness like a child on Christmas morning.

After almost three hours of shopping, I feel like my legs are going to detach from my body. Ivan and Vasily are holding our shopping bags and had been keeping up with us. We are now in a restaurant, I forced Ivan and Vasily to sit with us at the table but the two never gave in. They still stood next to us making sure that we are safe.

"Here B." Amy handed me something on the table.

"What's this?" When I took it, my eyes widened in horror.

Birth Control Pills.

"No!" I pushed it back towards her.

"You need to protect yourself B! At least until you and Nikolai are married." She pushed it back towards me.

"I said no A! Nikolai wants to have a baby."

"Did you just hear yourself B? Nikolai! Only Nikolai wants to have a baby. Did he ever ask you if you want to have a baby?" I froze to Amy's words.

"Did you ever ask yourself if you want to have a baby?" I know Amy will not let this one go. She thinks that she's protecting me, and I understand that.

"Let's go home A. I'm tired."

"B! Just please listen to me!"
