Blood Tears

Chapter 15

He was precious. A precious disaster. My котёнок. From the moment I laid eyes on his frightened form I knew I would kill anyone who made him hurt. When those big, blue, terror filled eyes locked on mine, I knew right then and there that I would burn the world for him. The pain and horror in his eyes broke my heart. I want to change that. I want those eyes to shine. I want them to be filled with nothing but happiness. I glanced down at his sleeping form snuggled in my arms. He fit perfectly in my arm, like he was created specifically to be there. His clothes and body were caked in dirt but he was still the most beautiful person in the universe. When his father, Damien, called me to help locate Adrian's twin I did not think much of it. All I knew about Ardian was that he was not there for as long I knew the family. Not much was ever said about him and I never wanted to know. I wondered why Damien, the don of the Italian mafia, would contact my father, the don to the Russian mafia, along with me, to help find him, but now I understood. This angel in my arms deserved the world. When I stood with him securely in my arms, a deep frown marred my face. He weighed nothing. Skin and bone. Way too skinny. Before I could think further, Ardian shifted in his sleep, snuggling closer to me and warming my heart. Unconsciously, a soft smile ghosted my face as I took in his baby face. 

"Let's get him home." Damien's cold voice broke my happy trance. I looked at the man who was Ardian's father. He tried his hardest to mask his expression but was failing miserably. His worry and fear for his youngest shone as bright as day.  I followed him back to the line of cars where Ardian's brothers and my father stood. As I came into view, I was immediately swarmed with questions of concern for Ardian. Adrian attempted to pry his twin from my grasp but Ardian just clung to me even harder. Warmth filled me from that simple act. I held him tighter and walked to my father's car.

"Aleksandr and Keír will take Ardian home in their car while the rest of us follow." Damien's emotionless instruction came from behind me. Shouts of protest erupted but Damien swiftly ended it. " Ardian is clearly comfortable with Keír, and right now his comfort and safety are our top priority." Ardian's brothers looked dejected and tired, no doubt from the night long searching. The pain and concern clung to the air and practically suffocated each of them. Their normally emotionless facades nowhere to be seen. Their love for their brother beamed through the concern as they let me get into the car with no more protest. I took the back seat so Ardian could be as comfortable as possible. Once my father was situated, he began the drive to the Lasota residence. As we drove, I found myself falling back into the trance that was Ardian Lasota. Even thou he was Adrian's identical twin, they were different in so many ways. Where Adrian's eyes held only animosity but still shown brightly, Ardian's were dull. They showcased how beaten down he was and I wanted to make sure they were to shine again. His weight and height also concerned me and showcased their differences. Where Adrian was 6'0 foot of pure muscle, Ardian was barely 5'3 and was skeleton thin and pale. I will change that thou. I promise him. I will make sure he shines like the star he is. I will do anything for him. He barely knows me but already has me wrapped around his finger, and I loved it. 

"You found your prince didn't you." My father's deep voice rumbled from the front seat. I look up at him through the rear view mirror and caught his smile. "Yes, yes I did." I answered with a matching smile of my own. I thought I would never find my prince, my one and only. But here he is, in my arms. My котёнок.
