Ten days had come and gone smoothly I had gone back to work for Mr ozera during my time here he was delighted but tried to hide it but I seen his warm smiles when he thought I wasn't looking .
I had seen Dimitri only twice since he left me his penthouse. I could get used to it living in luxury something I hadn't been able to enjoy since running away .
I sighed and readjusted myself on the outdoor couch looking at the city lights .
I wonder if father had given up searching I doubt it though he wouldn't let me go that easy . Gabriel wouldn't give up searching for me. Thinking of Gabriel my chest tightened of fear and the old longing I felt for him though it wasn't as strong as it used to be when I allowed myself to think of home .
A loud bing shook me from my thoughts and the phone I was given lit up with a notification surprising me.
Ian set up a security app on my phone so when he or Dimitri came by or anyone I'd get an alert .
Swiping the phone i opening the notification. I gasped .
Jumping to my feet I ran to the elevator swiping the card the elevator doors slid open and I hurried inside heart beating out of my chest .
The small wait to the garage floor seemed like hours as i willed it to go faster .
What seemed like two hours later the elevator doors slid open and someone slammed into me throwing me off balance into the wall behind me .
The body slumped to the floor .
"Dimitri" I called frantically dropping down checking over his bloody body .
Someone how I managed to swipe the card and and the elevator took us up to my floor .
Checking his body trying to find the source of his bleeding I found it, two small holes one in his shoulder and another in his abdomen.
Once the elevator closed I dragged him inside using all the strength I could muster . Running to the bathroom I yanked towels down and went back to Dimitri applying pressure to his wounds to stop the bleeding . He needed medical attention and fast rechecking the wounds I searched his back for exit wounds thankfully the bullets went through and through .
Quickly getting to my feet I stumbled back into the patio and grabbed my phone clicking Ian's contact and calling .
"I'm on my way, Dr Steele will need to be let in I won't make it there before he does" was his short reply then the line ended . Right he had to have gotten the security notification too .
Keeping my phone close I went back to Dimitri and pulled him onto the couch the best I could . Breathing heavily i crouched down beside him applying more pressure the his wounds .
His eyes fluttered open meeting my worried ones his eyes went down to my shirt and god help me I turned the reddest I have ever in my lifetime . I was in his shirt the one I used the first night I came to the penthouse .
His eyes closed once more and sweat beaded on him a forehead his jaw was tight as he clenched his teeth in pain his breathing was labored .
He was mumbling things in Russian I could not understand . Thankfully my notification went off signaling the arrival of the dr .Four long hours later of waiting the Drs footsteps descending the stairs that lead the the master bedroom. Ian straightened up already walking to meet him at the bottom .
"He will be fine, the worst parts over . He needs rest he shouldn't be moved , let him heal . He wants to speak to you before the meds take him under " he said to Ian . Ian walked hurried upstairs, he had been stressed and worried for Dimitri pacing through the penthouse non stop . When Ian had come up and seen the state Dimitri was in he had turned white and helped take him upstairs . He had also got on his phone all conversations were in Russian and his anger was very clear . He seemed to really care for Dimitri, he was more then just his boss they were close and someone I had observed that Dimitri trusted more then anyone .
"Make sure he takes these every six hours, and these twice a day . You will need to change his bandages regularly. Make sure he gets his rest." The dr said to me putting two prescription bottles down and motioning to which was which . He then set a bag of medical supplies down . He left shortly not before giving me his number to call if Dimitri had gotten any worse then he was .
Fifteen minutes later Ian left after checking in with me . I made my way up towards the guest room where I now would be staying since Dimitri has reclaimed his .
I put some new sleeping clothes and and grabbed a towel and headed for the shower .
Throwing Dimitri's bloody shirt to the floor in dismay it was ruined now .
Stepping into the huge shower I let the hot water fall on me relishing in the heat as my muscles slowly unwinded .
When I was dressed I walked up to Dimitis room bandages and medicine in hand ready to check his wounds .
He was laying on the bed shirtless two while patches taped on his wounds . His chest rose and fell evenly as he slept I sat next to him on the bed after setting the supplies down on the night stand bedside him . As lightly as I could I check his bandages making sure they didn't need to be changed yet . As I reached for his shoulder wound lifting the bandage softly his hand shot out grabbing my wrist stopping me I let out a soft gasp . Those dark eyes flashed open meeting my own then quickly searching the room . He tried to sit up in bed but I quickly Palmed his good shoulder stopping him .
"No you can't be up yet" I said alarmed that he would even attempt it .
He winced at the pain from sitting up so fast and complied but he narrowed his eyes annoyance clear on his face .
"Where's Ian" he asked eyes roaming the room once again .
"He left earlier, didn't say much just that he would return again at some point." I answered handing him the glass of water that was sitting at his bed side . He hesitantly took it and drank the entire glass .
"How's the pain ?" I asked standing up as I crossing my arms trying not to stare at his naked chest . Seeing what those suits covered up was dangerous I was ten seconds away from drooling like a school girl .
Get it together mia I thought to myself then froze I haven't called myself by my real name in so long I had drilled Sara into my mind until I believe that was who I was .
"Nothing I can't bare" he said I couldn't hold back the eye roll such a man's reply as if he read my mind he rolled his eyes back at me .
Letting out a small laugh I grabbed the glass, " I'll be right back I'll get you more water for the medication" I said walking away .
When I retuned he was sound asleep his back facing me as I walked back into his room, scars littered his back along with dark ink patterns . I stared my mouth ajar, shaking myself out of the trance I hurried to place the water by the pills and back out. Glancing back at his scars I bit my lip, that could've been me ... my own scars and wounds from leading an empire built on murder drugs and violence .
My feet took me to the patio outside on their own accord my mind was occupied and what could've been my future if I had t gotten away . I sat and curled into the couch eyes unfocused and thoughts running wild . It was time to go back to my apartment or better out of New York .
