All Or Nothing

One month later

Karine's POV

It has been about a month since my father had the meeting with the mafia about him selling drugs on their turf. My father of course tried lying about it but Viktor put father in his place. Ever since then father has been extremely short tempered with everyone including his cartel guys. A lot of them are pissed at him for fucking this shït up. Me, I'm trying to fly under radar and not get hurt. I know Viktor defended me during the meeting. He knows I want to get married to someone who isn't affiliated with the cartel because I want to live life without fears.
But lately me even trying to get out of the house with Viktor is proving to be next to impossible because my fat she has been tying him up in meetings with other cartels because I over heard that he wants to destroy the Italian Mafia so he can continue to sell drugs and not have to face any consequences for doing this without the mafias permission. Why couldn't my father have a normal 9-5 job? Why did he have to take over the cartel for my grandfather? Ugh!

As I am getting myself dressed to go shopping with Viktor, my father walks into my room as I'm applying makeup.

~Igor~ where do you think you are going?
~Karine~ I need to go shopping for groceries and new shoes. I double checked with Viktor and he said he was going to be able to take me.
~Igor~ You aren't going anywhere Karine. You are staying here no matter what you think you can do.
~Karine~ Father I am over the age of 18! I can go and do as I please!

WHACK!

~Igor~ You disrespectful little brat! I should of forked you over to the Italian mafia so I can continue to sell drugs...

He continues to scream in my face.

~Karine~ Father please stop!
~Igor~ I should of never kept you!

I am preparing myself to be smacked again but it never happens. I glance up and see Viktor standing in front of myself and between my father.

~Viktor~ Don't you ever lay your hands on her again? Do you understand me?
~Igor~ You work for me!
~Viktor~ No I work for Karine!

He smirks at both myself and Viktor. I immediately know what's about to happen!

~Igor~ Your fired! Get out and never return!
~Viktor~ Karine.....
~Karine~ It's okay Viktor!

Now I know I'm screwed. My father doesn't care about my safety or well being. Now the one person who made sure I was safe is gone and I don't have anywhere safe to hide. My father storms out of my room and slams the door.

~Viktor~ Don't worry Karine. I will make sure I get you out of here. Just stay here in the room and if you are in danger call me. I will be back here immediately and I'll get you.
~Karine~ Please be safe Vik!
~Viktor~ I will I got you Princess

I know he has me. Here's to never getting out alive. Here's to being in danger. At this point I wish the Italian Mafia knew about me to get me out. I don't agree with my father. Now I'm literally fücked.

Viktor's POV

I knew there was always the possibility of Igor firing me for stopping him from abusing Karine. Igor has been this horrible attitude towards Karine since her mother died. It's as if he truly didn't want a female heir to the Cartel. He never wanted to let her know about the business he hired me to keep her safe. Now she isn't. Knowing Igor he will hire someone else and they will be creeps towards and inappropriate as well.

Little does anyone ever know if while I have Russian blood in me, I am also part Italian. My cousin is none other than Giorgio Colombo. He know I hate drugs being sold hence when I found out a bit ago Igor was selling them again, I made him tell Giorgio the truth. I haven't told Karine and I was going to but I was fired before hand. I can probably get him to help me get her out but we need to be cautious.

Phone Conversation
~Viktor~ Giorgio...
~Giorgio~ What's up?
~Viktor~ I need to get the girl I was guarding out. Her father is abusing her and fired me when I stopped him from this.
~Giorgio~ whose her father?
~Viktor~ Igor Petrov
~Giorgio~ Say less. I'll schedule a raid on his house because he's still selling drugs on my streets. He won't stop.
~Viktor~Warn me when so I can let her know. Or even give a clue ahead of time.
~Giorgio~ As soon as I figure it out, I will let you know.

I hang up with him and send Karine a message telling her she will be rescued. She thanks me and tells me she's been locked in her room since I left. I feel like shït because this has happened. I will get her out. You can believe that.
