Alexander's pov:

After having breakfast I had back to dayavolicia. It's a fucked up place. Some say it was a college in the 17th century. Those old folks used to do some sort of rituals there. Now it's a place where we torture and do meetings.

I used to spend a lot of time there but after I brought emily , I prefer to not go there much. The woman I was torturing was brought here by her husband. You see when a woman gets merried in our life the only way out is death. The woman is not supposed to touch another man beside her husband, and when she does....well it's death, in the most cruelest way.

I never thought Emily would come out of her room. But sooner or later she was gonna encounter the bitter reality.  Life is not sunshine and butterflies.

I park my car and head towards my grandfather's office. Old man still got strength.  We're not like in a  typical relationship . My grandfather is a man of old beliefs.  I never thought he'll find out about emily but I guess he has his ways.

I saw zander standing by the office door. We both know what our grandfather's about to say. I maybe the king but he still holds some power over me.

He's never going to let you keep her.

My teeth grind , but he's right. I'm trying to find an excuse for what to do about her. Until my grandfather's died , he'll control my life.

Entering my grandfather's office, I find not only him but Kashton there as well. Not that I'm surprised.  He's my grandfather's right hand and a very clever man.

They're having a fucking meeting and I know the topic of the conversation-my girl.

Have a seat , son.

I'll stand. I cross my arms over my chest , widening my stance.

Alex-

I'll handle this, kashton. My grandfather tells Kashton.

Kashton just stares at me. He's a man of few words.

If this is about Emily, she's not going anywhere.

Her family is dead, Kashton snaps, telling me what I already know.

I'm her family. I state . If you want to take her , you'll have to go through me.

Kashton smirks gives me an eerie feeling.

We'll see about that, my grandfather says calmly.

What the fuck does that mean ? I snap, stepping forward.

My grandfather speaks . She can stay , but she must be initiated.  His words make my stomach knot.

We both know her father was important and he's dead. She's our enemy on top , and is left unprotected.

I already know that , dedushka.

I fist my hands, hating how true his words are .

I have authority on her. We are willing to give her to you , but in order to do so , you must do what needs to be done, he says vaguely.

She must become a prisoner ....my slave. But in doing so , I have to hurt her. They have no clue what lengths I can go to keep her safe. To make her mine. She'll hate me , and that thought makes my chest tighten.

Does it matter what she thinks of me ? Not really. She'll be alive and all mine. That's all I've ever wanted.

Told you he couldn't do it. Kashton gives a dark chuckle at my silence.

I say we go with my plan . Throw her in a cell in the basement.  No one's going to be looking for her....

No! I shout. You're not-

Those are your two options, Alexander.  My grandfather interrupts me.

You take her, or we do . What's it going to be?

Me , I growl through gritted teeth. It's not even a fucking question. Like hell I'll hand her over to them . I'm too selfish to let her go. I'd rather have her.

When ?

No time like the present. Kashton gives me a cold smile , and I grind my teeth. I've always hated him.

I turn to leave when my grandfather speaks. I'll have leon bring you everthing you need to get her ready.

That tightening returns to my chest. It means I'm not even going to get to choose how I do it. They'll place an order for what they want me to use.

I exit the office and rush back to my car.

Zander is standing by my car. He didn't joined the meeting.

Change of plans. He frowns.

Well, I'm still going to do what I had planned , but I just have to do something else before.

What now?

I have to initiate her into dayavolicia.

Fuck, he growls. You can't be serious. Alex you can't....

I don't have a fucking choice ! I shout. You either help me or get the fuck out . I've made my mind . There's no going back.

Fine . What's your plan. He asks me.

Just follow.

Emily's pov:

After having breakfast i decided to play with my dogs. Now I'm  a bit tired and a bubble bath sounds so good.

I head to my room and go to the bathroom.  I light a few candles , letting the water run in the tub. After putting some bath salts and bubbles , I take off my clothes and dip in.

Ahh. A groan leaves my lips at the feeling. It's so relaxing. My mind goes back to alex. He didn't tell me why he did that to that woman. I feel so bad for her. Zander told me that her husband left her there.

When I asked him that if she deserved what was happening to her he said nothing. Am I going to be next? I know alex cares for me. He never hurt me , well the only times he did I enjoyed that.

My cheeks heat at those thoughts. I'm not angry at alex , its just , I'm angry at myself. Who was that man in that basement that day. He seemed to be the one in control . I know alex is the leader , maybe he's someone close to him.

The bathrooms door opens softly and in walks alex . His face cold. We both remain silent. He takes off his clothes and gets in behind me . Adjusting me between his legs.

His hands gently massaging my shoulders.

I'm sorry , kotenok.

Update ya'll.  I can't believe we crossed 50 k🥺 . It's just my writing is really immature and I never thought i could have this many reads. Ya'll are the best.

I'll try to update soon. Till then take care and yeah. Bye.
