"Dominic Romano. I've been expecting you." My voice is cold and dark. I stand in his bedroom. It's pitch black in here. My knife is cold against my hand. The gun strapped to my leg is calling me. I can't. He needs to suffer.
My husband was shot in f...

Andy is in the hospital. She was attacked. Dante is a mess. She has been unconscious for three days now. I wish she would have told me. I feel guilty. I know about her past, but she wasn't going to be able to get over this that fast.
"V, I'm going to get some coffee, you want anything?" Dante hasn't slept in a few days. I shake my head at him. Ivan and Andrew get up and leave with him. Natalia and Lucy are at the office taking care of business for the day. They couldn't keep looking at Andy like this.
Why do men have to be monsters. I look over at Andy and she stirs. "это слишком ярко" Andy's voice is hoarse. She has her eyes squinted.
(Russian for: it's too bright)

Dante told me that I needed to postpone the ball. His wife was attacked. She had went out to the club for some fun. She had drank a lot, then a man drugged her. He raped her and then stabbed her.
I hunted that man down and killed him. I tortured him for hours before his heart gave out. Any man that hurts a woman deserves pain. My phone began ringing.
"Hello?" I didn't see who was on the other side before picking up.
"Hey, boss, I'm not going to come there for a while. Andy woke up today and I need to take care of her." Dante said on the phone. Even though I needed him, his wife needed him more.
"It's fine, family always comes first." With that we ended the call. I hope that she is going to be fine.

I was terrified. I thought that I was safe. Dante keeps squeezing my hand as the doctor talks. I'm not listening to him. I was too focused on my breathing. The doctor leaves the room and I fall back on the bed.
"Baby, we can go home today." Dante kissed my head. He was the only person I felt safe around. I've never really felt comfortable around men because of the things my father did to me.
We arrived home soon and I went straight to my room. I got dressed in my comfy clothes and Kaye's in my bed. A few minutes go by and Dante walks through the door. "Love, are you ok?" He sits down beside me.
I shake my head and feel a tear escape my eye. He locks the door and comes over to me. He knew that I hated when people saw me cry. He later behind me in bed and hugged me close to him. Sobs racked throughout my body. Dante pulls me closer and kisses my head.
I don't know when I fell asleep but I woke up in a cold sweat from my nightmare. I sat up and started to panic. My breath was quick and I couldn't get enough in. Dante rushes over to me from the bathroom. "Hey, look at me." He grabs my face and I start to calm down.
I never like being alone. It makes me think and then the flash backs start happening. The time my father tied me down to a chair and tortured me. I didn't complete my mission correctly so I was punished. I was only 14. Or I think of all the times he would hit me when I talked back. The times he would beat my mom and make me watch.
"Please don't leave me," I pull Dante to me and there was no space left between us. I kiss him and it soon turns passionate. He pull away.
"Are you sure you want this?" He looks at me guilty. I nod my head and we go back to kissing. He takes my shirt off and I take his off. Cold air hit my bare chest. He kisses down my neck, biting and sucking in a few spots. He travels down my body. He pulls my pants off. He moves down my legs. He comes back up and is close to the spot I want him at.
"Dante," I say in a strict voice. He usually teased me. I heard him chuckle.
We had sex and I was very exhausting. Dante was now laying on my bare chest half asleep. "Baby can we take a bath?" I look down at him hopeful. He takes a deep breath. He walks into the bathroom and I hear the water running.
Dante walked over to me and picked me up. He carried me into the bathroom. He placed me in the tub and then got in behind me. His arms wrapped around my waist and he kissed my shoulder. "I love you, Andrea" he whispered in my ear. I don't know if anybody else would ever make me feel so happy.
"I love you too, Dante." I turned my head enough to kiss him. We stayed in each others arms for a while. The water started turning cold so we got out.
I put on one of Dante's shirts and some of my shorts. He put on some sweat pants. His v-line was very noticeable. He had abs too, sometimes I forget he is so strong and fit. "God, I have a hot husband." I fan my face to mess with him.
"And I have a gorgeous wife." Dante walks over to me. I wrap my arms loosely on him neck. He puts his hands on my hips. "Cmon I'm hungry," he places a kiss on my forehead and walks out the door pulling me behind him.
We reach the kitchen and he sits me down on the counter next to the stove. I look over at the clock, and see it's 4 in the morning. I hadn't even payed attention to the time before. "Dante, don't be loud. I want the kids to sleep." I see him grabbing things out of the pantry.
"They aren't here." He states as if that was some common occurrence. He saw the shock on my face and hurriedly replied, "they are at Vera's. She figured you wanted some time with me alone."
He started cooking and I watched him. He always looked so peaceful when he cooked. We ate and watched a movie cuddled up in bed. I soon fell asleep on Dante's chest.
