There's only one person who can pull such a stunt and expect to go scot free. I glance down at Davinia, she peers her green eyes at me through those glasses. "I too have a hunch" she holds my gaze for a while, her cheeks getting brighter and her lips parts a little. I'm glad I'm not the only one who's affected by our proximity. A knock on her door breaks the moment and we both turn our heads towards the door.
"It's Butcher. There is a call for a meeting" A man says from behind the door. Davinia stands up from her seat. She sends me a fleeting glance which makes blood run all the way to my dick. I groan inwardly.
She opens the door for the man who calls himself Butcher. He looks like one. Very bulky and tall. One thing amuses me tho, his eyes. His eyes are dead. He's a killer, a cold bloody killer. He eyes meet mine and he calculates for a few seconds in his head if I'm a threat or not. I send him a cold smile, he could be a monster but when his eyes leaves mine and soften when he looks at Davinia, I know immediately that he would never hurt her.
They exchange a few words before he disappears. Davinia walks back to me, she's in a turtle neck body suit, tucked into a pair of Grey striped black pants and to finish me off... She's in heels, strapped to her feet like vines.
"Federico has called for a meeting" her eyes move to the side and I watch her and Tiana share a look with smirks playing on their lips. "I'll be back" She takes a coat. My coat from the coat hanger by the side of her office and drapes it over her right shoulder before strutting out of the office.
That was sexy.
"I know right" Tiana speaks behind me. I look back to see her relaxed in her seat with her arms folded under her chest. She has her eyes on me, calculating. What's with these people and calculating looks.
"She's beautiful" She adds.
"She is"
She turns her chair fully to my side, her index finger taps in her chin and her eyes holds curiosity. "How did your wife die?"
The question isn't what I expected but ever since I set foot into the luchesse's home, I'm no longer surprised at the constant change of event or character. I eye Tiana carefully. She isn't smiling nor is she frowning. Her eyes however are telling and threatening.
"She was murdered" of course she knows this. She is the infamous Ghost after all but I want to know where's she's going with this
She nods slowly. "I see" she suddenly pulls out a knife from her jacket and I nearly get hit when she throws the knife at me. I simply hold my breath and keep my calm. She's so fast, I barely dodged it. I look behind me to see the knife stuck to the wall, I go to remove it.
"Are you testing me, Tiana?" I ask coolly as I pull the knife out of the wall. She smirks coyly.
"That's a warning Mr Dimitri. That knife is laced with poison if it as much as grazes your skin,You will die"
I nod slowly, stalking towards her.
"What is it you want to say?" I ask. When I get close to where she sits, I strike the knife at her. I swear I see a smirk on her lips before she digs into my right hand. My hand goes limp and the knife drops, I move to catch it with my left but she beats me to it as she takes it before it lands on her thighs, she points the knife towards my throat. Her smirk broadens.
"I, Mr Dimitri. I am not that chick, be careful of me" she says snarkly while I watch her with amusement in my eyes. I completely underestimated her agility. My left hand moves with incredible speed and I grab her wrist then I twisted it. The knife falls to the ground and I instantly kick it away. She makes a move but I halt her movements with a gun to her head.
"It's too early for this particular game you want to play Miss Tiana" she cocks her right eyebrow at me and suddenly she pushes her chair back and kicks the gun away from my hand. She get down from the chair and stalks towards me. In her eyes is a threatening glint.
"Davinia is not a woman to be toyed with. I like what you did with the Irish Mafia but if anything happens to Davinia, your mafia will go into extinction" her voice sizzles in the air and I grin at her.
"Be rest assured Tiana. I plan to protect my wife with my life"
"For your sake, I hope so"
She adjusts her jacket before striding out of the office.
The Russian mafia definitely won't like Tiana. Our women are known to be submissive and obedient. They do not act like the luchesse daughters. Why does that seem to amuse me. My whole being is anticipating for the future dramas that are upcoming.
If Katarina wasn't weak, she would have been able to protect herself. No, that's a very shallow thought. It's my job as her husband to protect her with everything I have but instead I failed her. I failed her and my unborn child.
I won't allow the same to happen to Davinia. With that thought in mind I walk out of the office, there is a particular person I should see before I leave for Moscow with my wife.
"How did you know all this information?" my brother questions as he rest both of his leg on the desk in my room. I take a sip of the cognac in my hand, it burns and cools my throat at the same time.
"Davinia and her sister, Tiana"
"That hot chick that disappears and reappears?"
I chuckle. "Yes brother. Her name is Tiana"
"I heard you" I eye him from beneath my glass to catch a familiar look in his eyes. He wants Tiana. I knew this would happen the very first time I saw him check her out at the dinner table last night.
"Be careful, she bites" I warn.
"Just how I like them"
"Since when"
"Since I saw her beat the shit out of a guy in their training yard. So fucking hot."
Oh well, I warned him.
