Aleksandra (18+)

Power out

Aleksandra's POV
I texted Edita that I wasn't allowed to go out. None of the men in my life was letting me.
My phone buzzed again and his eyes met mine. I could drown in to his man's beautiful eyes. I looked down at my phone again to read the text.

-I thought we were going for drinks! :(

-I don't know what's going on right now but they won't let me.

-I get it. Well what about lunch tomorrow?

-DEFINITELY! <3

My phone was snatched out of my hands as I said. "Hey what are you doing?" standing up.
"Who are you texting?" He asked with narrowed pitch black eyes looking at my screen. But as soon as he saw the messages his eyes went back to normal.
All eyes were on us. I know they all watched but as soon as one of us looked they quickly looked away. Trying to mind their own business my ass.

He turned around to sit down in the couch. He leaned against the couch rubbing his chin while watching me.
"Hello? Can I have my phone back?" I said looking at him like he was crazy.
"No."
"Fucking asshole, you men always act fucking superior. I hate it." I said as I started walking away.
I could see smiles erupting behind me as I watched the mirror infront of me that reflected at them.
Everyone's eyes were at the papers on the table except his. He was squirming in his laid back state while watching me walk away. "Manwhore." I mumbled.

I walked in to the kitchen to grab something to eat as the power went out.
"What in the-"
"Aleksandra stay were you are and don't make a fucking sound!" I heard Luka scream.
I knew what this was. My parents had prepared me for this, if one day some of our enemies were to somehow get inside. I crouched down carefully opening the kitchen counter and walking inside hiding as my parents always informed me to do.

"Aleksandra, Teodora." Go to HS1 and stay there" My dad shouted.
HS1 meant hideout secrecy place 1 with some type of weapon attached to it. We had one in every room. In the kitchen it was the counter and in the living room behind the bookshelf.
I saw the power turn back on but I stayed put. I know better than to just show my hiding spot in case it's the enemy. As I said, our parents taught us better.

BASEMENT SAFE. I heard my brother shout.
UPSTAIRS SAFE. I heard my soon to be father in law shout.
OUTDOORS HOUSE SAFE. My father said.
DOWNSTAIRS SAFE. I heard Luka say not far from where I was.

I carefully climbed out and closed the counter as I stood up.
He turned around pointing the gun at me and I froze. He immediately pulled it away and started walking towards me, crushing me in a hug. "Your safe." I nodded.
After some seconds he let me go.
"Mama, Tata!" I shouted.
"Living room, everyone NOW." My dad shouted.

We all walked inside sitting down.
Someone's been here, cutting our power.
"I told you she's not safe her." Luka said throwing daggers with his eyes at my father.
My mother grabbed me and hugged me. This wasn't our first rodeo. But every time it had a effect.
"She's MY daughter." he said.
"And she's MY fiancé. And that's why she's coming with me! She's not safe here." he said crossing his arms.
My father looked at him before looking to my brother saying. "You're right."

He's the capo in Serbia but I knew he couldn't interfere since he was a good ally with Luka and had respect for his father. It wasn't his place. Nor was it mine if you would have asked them.

"Enough." I said standing up.
"Sit down, Aleksandra." They both said on que.

So I slopped down on the couch.
"if something happens to her." my father started.
"It won't." he shut him down quickly.
Everyone stood up so, so did I.
"Aleks, go pack." Luka said eyes still on my father.
"Now?" I ask.
"NOW." My dad said looking at me.

I walked upstairs, well no-I ran upstairs and grabbed the things that I might need in the following week and threw it in my suitcase. Closing it and putting on my oversize leather jacket walking down with the big bag in my hand.

I slipped and fell right on my ass on the stairs as the suitcase flew downstairs.
"Oh sissy." Andrej said helping me up.
"Fuck you all and fuck this life." I said angry.

"Enough, Lexi." Luka said and I turned looking at him. Lexi? A new nickname.. did I like it? It was cute to be honest.
He grabbed my bag and motioned for me to follow him.
We said our goodbyes. Him shaking hands with my father and brother and I hugging them all telling them I'll call tomorrow before we left the house.

The car ride was excruciating. I was so tired I fell asleep in the car.

Dreaming

I felt two strong hands wrap around me while kissing my forehead before I was placed on a cloud. Hearing. "I'll do everything to protect you, Tesoro."
"Luka." I said cuddling in to the cloud before it all went black again.

End of dream
