I kissed his open mouth before he fell onto me, a sweaty, hot blanket. I loved it.

Holding him, I closed my eyes and sunk into a sleep where I met Viktor in my dreams.

***

Viktor

Valerie must have felt me watching her nap because she squinted her eyes sleepily at me. I watched her slowly coming awake, and my dick was waking up for attention too, the greedy bastard. He would never have enough of her pussy.

Her lips parted and she let out a sleepy yawn before turning on her side to face me.

Fuck, now I was imagining her pouty lips wrapped around my cock.

Shaking my head, I tried to clear the tempting thought. I tickled her sides, trying to wake her up. She hummed in response, and I saw her reluctantly opening her eyes for me. “Valerie, I need you fully awake for this.”

“What?” she grumbled in response.

“Remember, I told you I have to leave tonight.”

She snapped into a sitting position, fully awake now. “I forgot,” she whispered.

The sleepiness was all gone. The sated look on her face was gone too. It was all replaced with a hint of fear and uncertainty. I knew she hated being alone.

I held her face in my palms and placed a sweet kiss on her lips before pulling away. “Valentin won’t be back for another four days, from what I heard. I will be home again by the time he comes back. So don’t worry. He won’t hurt you.”

Valentin hadn’t come for Valerie for a few weeks. I was relieved. She was safe. For now. But I also knew he was spending his time with Irina. When he wasn’t here to torture my sweet myshka, someone else was suffering at his hands.

Valerie nodded and then looked down at her lap. I hated the sad curve of her lips. My chest felt heavy at the sight of her unhappy, and it felt even heavier at the thought of leaving her behind. Fuck me, this woman had me pussy whipped, through and through.

She had stolen my heart. A little thief she was. A pretty little swan who had me enraptured.

With a finger under her chin, I lifted her head up. Her eyes met mine, and I chuckled at her pout. I was a greedy son of a bitch, but so was my woman. She was perfect.

“It’s only for a few days, and I will be back very soon. Yegor will keep you company while I am gone,” I explained.

She huffed. “He never speaks to me and always glowers my way.”

I guessed I needed to have a talk with Yegor. “Well. That’s because he’s an asshole.”

“He’s your friend.” Valerie gave me the side-eye, but I could tell she was fighting a smile.

“He’s an assholey friend then,” I returned.

Slowly, I kissed her cheek before getting off the bed. She pulled the blanket up and covered her nakedness. “No need to be shy now, baby. I have seen it all.”

Her blush had my lips quirking up before I could stop myself. Valerie’s gaze traveled over my body. I was unapologetically naked. Her eyes settled on my dick and then up again to my stomach and my chest. I flexed, because why the fuck not? It made the pretty pink in her cheeks more visible.

Giving her a wink, I sauntered into the bathroom. Not before flexing my ass too. I knew she was looking. Felt her stares burning into my back. Yeah, I was a shameless asshole. And the ladies fucking loved it.

I quickly showered and got dressed again. My suit now molded to my body like a second skin. Back to being the gentleman with a killer instinct underneath it all. A nice face that hid the darker truth.

Walking out of the bathroom, I found Valerie in the same spot as I left her. My legs took me to her side of the bed. I bent forward and kissed her forehead.

“Valerie, I have made many promises to you. And I intend to keep and fulfill all of them, one by one,” I said. She gave me a wobbly smile.

“I know,” my sweet Valerie whispered.

And I will start by returning you your friend. Soon, pretty myskha. Very soon. Then it will be your freedom. And lastly, I will give you your family back.

I kissed her forehead once more. My lips lingered there sweetly before pulling away. I stepped back, but Valerie stopped my retreat. Her grip on my arm tightened.

“Viktor…I need to ask you something,” she started. “Please don’t lie to me.”

My brows furrowed at her question. She sounded scared and a little lost. “What is it, baby?”

She took a deep breath and then let it out. It looked like it pained her to do so. “You went to see Irina, didn’t you?”

My breath left me. Shock shot through my veins, and my body went cold. Damn it. This was something I didn’t want Valerie to know. It would hurt her, cause her more pain than she could bear.
