As I disembark from the sleek limousine, Dante's warm greeting echoes in my ears. I offer a coy smile while adjusting my attire, ensuring that my makeup is pristine before stepping into the bustling nightclub.My choice of attire for the evening is a daring red leather dress, hugging every curve, and accentuating my bare décolletage. I pair this with a classic black stiletto, adding an extra touch of sophistication and glamour.Dante's hesitant question hangs in the air, his apprehension palpable. I suppress a smirk, inwardly relishing in the fear that I so effortlessly evoke in others. With a small nod, I reassure him of my confidence, steeling myself to enter the club, determined to make a lasting impression.Confession time. I fibbed. Papa's iron grip never releases after dusk. Except, he's out of the country and won't return for another forty-eight hours... so I have two glorious days of liberation. And, my dear friend Katina is turning twenty today.Being the offspring of a mafia kingpin often leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. To put it bluntly, my father is Satan incarnate. Hailed as the most feared, merciless, heinous and self-serving figure in the world of organized crime. I can go on and on with derogatory adjectives, yet words fail to do him justice. He is the bloodthirsty commander of the Russian mob, the notorious Рыцари крови.Speaking of masterminds, the ruling don of global underworld bosses is none other than Semion Lebedev from Russia.The rumors I've heard about him sounded pathetic to me. Maybe it's because I'm his daughter and I haven't seen that dark side of him, only the loving side.But it can be overwhelming sometimes. Wherever I go, whatever I do, I always need protection. I never get my privacy nor freedom.I'm not complaining that he cares for me and just wants me to be safeguarded. I know how dark and horrifying the mafia world can be. You need guts to be involved in that type of world.You need to bury your humanity and amass a brutal equivalence.But he needs to understand that I can take care of myself.As soon as I entered the club I'm greeted by the smell of strong alcohol combined with sweat and loud music filled my ears.I start to feel the adrenaline rushing through my blood.The club looked amazing with dimmed neon purple and blue lights that automatically changed, a big chandelier hanging in the middle of the club. Above it, it's the dance floor. And a bar near the dance floor. On the stage, two strippers are pole dancing -One's dressed in pink lingerie with 5-inch pencil heels as her black jet hair is tied in a high ponytail while the other is wearing just a transparent thong and black duct tape covering her nipples.When we reached the VIP section I was caught off guard when someone wrapped their arms around my body and embraced me into a tight warm hug."Bitch!" The person squeals. Immediately I know who it is. "Birthday girl!" I say, wrapping my arms around her waist.Seconds later Katina pulls back from the hug and locks our fingers together.She looks beautiful as always, she has wavy light brown hair with highlights and beautiful jade eyes with her toned skin and plump, pink lips."Finally you get to breathe." She giggles.I giggled as well and pecked her cheek. "I missed you," I say with a warm smile. "I missed you too. I'm so glad your father is out of the country."Rolling my eyes she escorts me to our table and I see two guys sitting there."Lora this is Nathaniel and that is Christopher." She introduced me to her friends.They are both Attractive, Nathaniel has dark long hair and baby blue eyes with cream white skin and Christopher has blonde curly short hair, brown eyes, and olive-toned skin."Hi," I said, avoiding eye contact. "It's nice to meet you, Lora," Nathaniel says as he takes a sip of his drink telling by his accent he is probably an Australian or British."Nice to meet you as well Nathaniel." When I turn to my side I notice that Christopher and Katina are flirting with each other.I playfully roll my eyes and take a seat beside Nathaniel. We both share a look and I immediately break eye contact.I start to bite the inside of my cheek as I wander my eyes around the club. The music was so loud that you could feel it by each beat.Minutes later Katina approaches us with drinks. She places it on the table and everyone randomly picks a drink.I took a drink that has a small umbrella and two colors that blend, Purple and blue."Cheers to the birthday girl," Christopher says as he brings his glass to air waiting. We all clink our glasses together and yell cheers followed by laughter.For half of the night, we were all talking and making jokes. It turns out Christopher is the goofy one and Nathaniel is the quiet one and they are cousins."Oh, come one that's just ridiculous." Katina laughs and shoves Christopher. "Fucking serious." He said as he leaned back in his chair."You're a wild dude," I say before taking a sip of my cocktail. It's sweet and tastes like rum. I kind of like it that I had two extra glasses, I don't know if I'm drunk but right now I'm a bit hyped."What about you Lora?" Kat questions and all eyes on me now. "What?" I assert, biting my lip. "Craziest place you've had sex?" She says with a goofy smile.I gulp as I start to play with my fingers. "I-""I haven't had sex before," I mumble as I avoid eye contact, I could feel my cheeks burn. I probably look stupid."Shit, seriously?" Christopher lets out with a shocked face. I nod, taking another sip. Nathaniel clears his throat as he ruffles his hair a bit before standing up."I'll be back." He said and walked away. The atmosphere around us becomes awkward but quickly changes when Kat starts to squeal like a little girl."My fucking song!" She said excitedly. "Come on, let's go dance." She said and dragged me out of the VIP section.Shortly we reached the dance floor and I felt someone wrap their hands around my waist. I turn around and I find Kat moving against me as her hips sway side to side; following the beat of the music.Giggling, I leaned my head on her shoulder and began to follow her movements.My body was hot and I could tell my makeup was a mess because of all the sweating.I let go of Katina and began to dance freestyle. Letting my body take control, closing my eyes I bit my lower lip as I moved my hands from my hair to my collar bone then the valley of my breast slowly moved it to my thighs and lowered myself before getting up.I felt Katina grip onto my hand then spun me around. I giggled then accidentally bumped into someone. "Crap, I'm sorry." I giggled.Looking up I was greeted by gorgeous hazel eyes. My eyes lowered and gulped as I saw plump lips, I stepped back and clenched my thighs together.Holy fuck. This man's body isIndescribable, his jet black hair is all messed up which makes him more attractive, he has bristly eyebrows, defined cheekbones, a concrete jaw, Titan's shoulders, and has masculine perfectly toned skin with a scar on his right cheek...He screamed danger and looked so familiar."Non c'è bisogno di scusarsi." He said licking his lips. [ translation: No need to be sorry. ]"Sorry I don't understand Italian," I said giggling.Why the fuck am I giggling?"But you do sound hot," I said with a low voice as I let my fingers crawl on him.Why did I say that!?His jaw clenches and his body becomes stiff. I licked my dry lips then the music changed into a more sexual slow song.Grinning, I find myself pressing my back against his, warping my left arm around his neck. I began to move on him.I hear him groan, closing my eyes. I continue to sway my hips side to side each time I move against him. I could feel his hard dick pressing in my inner thighs."Mi stai tentando." He groans, leaning in his lips brushes my neck and I suck in a breath when he gently bites my neck. [ translation: You're tempting me.]A small moan escapes my lips as he places his hands on my waist then grips on it before pulling me closer.My back hitting his chest, his fingers slowly rubbing my thighs causing my body to shutter, goosebumps forming from head to toe.I gasp when his tongue is in contact with my hot skin, he sucks on my neck gently and I feel my lower regions throb, hot and wet. I bet my lace thong is damped."Have a good night Ms. Lebedev." He whispers in my ear. I shiver at how deep his voice is with his Italian accent - wait.I immediately sobered up.That's when it hit me, how does he know my second name?I quickly turn around and watched him as he slowly disappears into the crowd.Lorraine Lebedeva I'm warm. My eyes fluttered open, I began to blink rapidly to gain back my vision. When I look around I realize that I'm in my room. How did I end up here? When I look down I notice that I'm in my nightdress and my clothing from last night is neatly placed on my nightstand. I pull myself out of bed and I feel a sharp intake of pain. My head is pounding. I groan and force myself out of bed. I start to remember everything from last night. I remember we were Drinking then Katina asked me to dance after I danced with this guy. Everything else is a blur. God, I hope I didn't do anything stupid. Wait- that guy I danced with said my name. How the hell does he know my name and I think he looked familiar. I shrug off the feeling and walk towards the door, opening it I peek my head out to make sure there are no guards in the hallway. My body relaxed a bit that the hall was empty. I slowly walk out and gently shut my bedroom door - Pressing my lips together so that I
Lorraine Lebedeva four weeks and I haven't heard from the person. I've tried so damn hard to distract myself but nothing is working, that's why I have agreed to accompany my father for his business trip to France. Which is today. "Everything is packed?" Mother questioned. "Yes mother." I drop my head into my hands. "I just need a break from being in the house all the time." Mother sighs, shutting her eyes as she pinches the bridge of her nose. "I know sweetheart, But soon it's your birthday." She says gently. Smiling politely I placed my hand onto hers and gently stroked the back of her hand. "I know you're worried but everything will be okay, I'm with dad and Dante so there's no need to be paranoid." Mother stiffness suddenly, she looks down then up for exactly five seconds before turning away. "Be safe, okay." She whispers it sounded more like a promise than a demand. "I'll come back like I always do." I giggle as I try to lighten up the mood. She takes a deep breath before stan
Lorraine Lebedeva "Holy shit." Halette gasps. Rolling my eyes I let myself in and smiled when I saw aunt Nadine in the kitchen. The flight to France wasn't bad. I slept the whole time so I didn't get the chance to see the view kind of bummed cause it's my favorite thing to do whenever we fly. Father had an emergency call so he couldn't stop by and pay a little visit to aunt Nadine's. Dante is currently at the hotel where we'll be staying for the next two weeks. "You can't just ignore me like that Lora," Haletta yelled behind my back. Giggling, I turned around and pulled her into a bear hug. "Oka-okay Lora I-I can't breathe." She gasps as she tries to push me away. "Oh, how I've missed you," I say, tightening my grip around her. "Lora!" She gasped. Rolling my eyes I let go and she stumbles back, catching her breath. "Are you trying to kill me," Haletta says. "Yeah, maybe," I responded. "Lora!" I spin around, even though it's aunt Nadine. A big smile is plastered across her face. S
Lorraine Lebedeva There comes a time where you have full control over a situation or you don't. Right now my mind is trying to process what just happened. I don't know if I should be freaking out or act normal, something is pulling me back from informing my father that I crossed paths with Raphael Romano. "Lora!" I snapped out my thoughts and looked around to check who called for me. "Are you okay?" Haletta questioned as she placed her hand on my shoulder. I turned to her. "Hmm, yeah sure, sure. I'm okay." I mumbled. She gave me an unsure look and lifted a brow. "Sure?" She asked. "Yeah, I'm just tired. Can we leave?" I asked as I tugged my hair behind my ear. "Uh, yeah sure let's go." She said then stood up from her seat and grabbed all her things. I took my things as well and we paid for our deserts. ⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅ "Hey, are you okay?" Haletta asked. "I'm good." "You weren't fine when I dropped you off." She whispered in a worried tone. I slightly chuckled. "I told you I was
Lorraine Lebedeva"Not yet red." He whisperedI bit my lip, clenched my fist then screwed my eyes shut.Idiot. I thought to myself.I opened my eyes and looked up licking my lips when I admired his soft plump lips. He pulled me closer and I caught his gaze. Raphael tilted his head to the side a little then placed his hands on my face. I leaned in and closed my eyes, took a deep breath then opened my eyes again.He began to rub his thumb on my cheek in a circular motion. It was relaxing.I was about to speak but he beat me to it. "You need rest." He says in a soothing tone as he tucked my hair behind my ear.I didn't respond, instead pushed him away from me and walked out the bathroom.I waited for me to exit the bathroom and he saw me standing next to the bed with my arms crossed. He didn't show any emotion nor say a word.When he reached the door he opened it then wished me a goodnight before closing it.I threw myself on the bed and groaned from frustration then ran my fingers thro
Lorraine Lebedeva I took a deep breath. "There's something I have to tell you." Father's smile faded when he noticed I wasn't smiling. "What is it sweetheart?" he asked. I placed my hands on the table, Father wrapped his hands around mine giving it a comforting squeeze. His eyes met mine and I looked away. I don't have the heart to look him in the eye. I chew the inside of my cheek. My palms are starting to get sweaty. I'm nervous, I have no idea how he will react to this. Before I could speak, fathers phone vibrated on the table. He read the ID caller then shifted his attention back to me. "It's important," he spoke with guilt. I sighed letting go of his hands. I put on my best smile, nodding my head up and down as I tugged a few strands of my hair behind my ear. "This will only take a minute." He picked up his phone hence stood up then he walked out of the restaurant. He mouthed sorry. I sighed. Should I tell him? Not sure, half of me wants to inform father about this b
Lorraine Lebedeva "You have a serious problem, Lora." Haletta sneered. I rolled my eyes. "I have a serious problem, you're the one who randomly asked them out!" I protested. Just because I always do a background check on guys I go out with isn't being a creep at all. I'm being responsible. I'm not the one going around asking random people to have dinner and go to their house later on. "Just tell me their names Haletta and stop being a pain in the ass," I said. "Stop, just stop," she said, throwing her hands in the air. "Okay fine. Make sure you tell me everything when you get back." I declared openly. She stopped searching in her closet and faced me. "You are coming." "No." "Yes." "No." "Lorraine shut the fuck up and accept that you are coming!" she yelled, throwing one of her bras at me. I caught it and threw it on the bed. "See this..." I said, waving my hands back and forth towards Haletta. "This is why you are single." "No, it's because I'm too hot to date." she flex
Lorraine Lebedeva"Which restaurant are we going to?" Haletta questioned as she entered the car. "Our place." Rhett said.I turned around and tried to run back inside but Marcello was blocking my chance to escape.I awkwardly cleared my throat, tucking a few strands of hair behind my ear.I entered the vehicle and Marcello shut the car door."I have a weird feeling about them," I whispered to Haletta. "You're just overreacting." she waved me off.Seriously, one thing I hate about Haletta is that she never listens to anyone, she's very stubborn.I rolled my eyes then crossed my arms. "Just shake it off." Haletta drawled."I just have a bad feeling about them," I answered absently. Haletta looked at me under her dark eyelashes with her infamous pursed-lips-you-ruin-everything expression.I hate it whenever I'm out, whether with my cousins or friends and I have a bad feeling about this place or person- I inform them but they brush me off and always say 'i ruin the fun'.I think I'm alway
