Chapter 14


    Belle''s POV


    The ride to the grocery with Alexei was painful. I couldn''t even look at him. I hate him for not listening to


    me, but I hate myself more for putting myself in this situation. The two huge men from the restaurant


    are in the driver and passenger seats, while Alexei and I are at the back.


    Alexei cleared his throat.


    "Don''t." I quickly interrupt whatever it is that he wanted to say or do.


    I can feel him move ufortably in his seat. You know if I weren''t so angry right now, Alexei acting


    like this is kind of funny.


    "We''re here. Wait for me first. "


    Of course, I did not wait for him. I quickly opened the door and walked my way inside the grocery.


    Alexei followed me from behind.


    I decided to cook Asian marinated chicken for dinner. How hard can it be? I have watched my mother


    cook many times before, I''m sure I can do it.


    As we walk along the aisles, I noticed that Alexei is quite the chick ma and old women ma. I


    swear, they are looking at Alexei like they were to devour him or something, they are not even hiding it.


    "I''m sorry princess."


    I still ignore him.


    "I''m sorry. Just at least say a word."


    "You...you..did exactly the opposite of what I asked you!"


    "I''m sorry but it''s my job to know everything pertaining to you that might put you in danger. Niki is not


    only my boss, but he''s also my brother. I just had to know what made you anxious all of a sudden."


    That actually made sense. I somehow feel bad for treating him this way. One thing that bothers me is


    that why are they always thinking that I might be in danger? Is this one of the things that Niki has not


    told me about?


    "Did you delete it?" I asked Alexei while looking him in the eyes.


    "I did."


    I looked at him sternly while squinting my eyes.


    "You better!"


    Alexei softly chuckled in response. "Just a thought, If you send him that picture, the crazy man will bolt


    like the sh no matter what meeting he''s in right now."


    I suddenly felt my face turn crimson.


    "Listen to me A-lex-ei." I pronounced each syble for emphasis. "What happened must be between


    the two of us, get it? Don''t spoil my birthday gift to Niki."


    He then acted like he''s zipping his lips. "Good. You better make sure or you will experience my wrath."


    Alexei lets out augh so I smack him in his arm. "Now let''s go before one of these women bring you


    home."


    "Are you jealous my princess?"


    I parted my mouth in disbelief. Arrogance level: Niki Vyachev VolkovTêxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "I just don''t want to walk back home, you are my ride remember?"


    "Wow, at least now I know my value to you."


    "A let''s go." I''m clinging to Alexei''s arm as we walk to the check out counter.


    "What a sweet couple. Darling look at them. Reminds me of us back in the days. " An old woman and


    probably her husband are on the check out counter ahead of us. The olddy looks very sweet. Her


    husband looks pleasant as well. I just smiled at them in response.


    I decided not to correct her. I noticed that Alexei is going with my n. I don''t want to burst her bubble.


    The old couple looks like they are so in love. I want me and Niki to grow old together like them


    someday.


    While in the car on our way home, I messaged Niki.


    "I miss you Niki. Come home early please? I''m making us dinner."


    A whileter my phone vibrated, it''s a call from Niki.


    "You''re making us dinner?"


    "Yep, what time are youing home?


    "I''ll be there in an hour baby."


    "I love you Niki."


    "I love you more. Sleep with me tonight?"


    "Do I have a choice?"


    "None exactly."


    "I''m doing this for my door actually. It needs protection from you and Alexei."


    I heard Nikiugh on the other side of the line.


    "Be safe okay?"


    "If I get home safe do I get a reward?"


    "Yes." I giggled.


    "What is it?"


    "A full body massage."


    "Coming home now."


    "Hello? Niki?" Did he hang up on me?


    "You just offered the man a body massage, expect that he''ll be home anytime now."


    Oh god, I think I have created a monster.

    Alexei is with me in Niki''s kitchen while his two other men are somewhere. Niki arrived with Yuri


    and Boris and immediately hugged me from behind.


    "How''s my baby?"


    "Cmon Niki let''s eat. I want the boys to eat with us." Niki signaled Alexei who immediately got


    what Niki meant.


    "Humm that smells good." Yay, Niki liked the smell of my cooking! I''m so excited. I''m pretty sure they


    are going to love it.


    ***********Niki and Alexei''s text message conversation before Niki arrived.*********


    Alexei: Hey Boss whatever it is that she''s cooking, it doesn''t look good.


    Niki: How bad?


    Alexei: Yelena''s cooking bad.


    Niki: Shit. All of you shall eat no matter what.


    *************************************************************


    All of the men are ounted for in the dining table. I ced the asian marinated chicken on two nice


    tes. My seat is on Niki''s right and to his left is Alexei while the rest of the boys upied the other


    chairs left.


    "Let''s eat!" I said with glee. I noticed that Alexei was clearing his throat and ncing at Niki. What is


    up with him?


    "What are you waiting for guys! Dig in! Don''t be shy, I made this for all of you. Here baby, this is for


    you."


    I ced some for Niki. I stare at him intently as he slowly slices the chicken and puts it in his mouth.


    I want to see his reaction.


    "Hmmm...not bad. The beef is delicious." Beef? But.


    I can see the horror on Alexei''s face, he knows for a fact that what I bought from the grocery was


    chicken and not beef. Now I know what''s happening here.


    "Stop!!!!! All of you stop eating!" Boris'' piece of the chicken was almost in his mouth. "Don''t you dare


    put that in your mouth Boris!"


    I took the food from Niki''s te. I am so mad at him right now! He didn''t have to pretend that he


    likes it! Let alone force his men to eat!


    "What''s wrong baby?"


    "This is chicken Niki! Chicken!Not beef!"


    I collected Niki''s te and attempted to stand but Niki pulled me towards him, before I know it,


    I''m already on hisp. I buried my face on his shoulder in embarrassment.


    "Whatever it is that you want me to eat, I''m going to eat it. Most especially if you want me to eat your


    pussy."


    "Niki!" I smack him on his shoulder but he just lets out a chuckle in response.


    "Now, I heard from Alexei that you wanted to kidnap the chef from Dile''?" I just nodded at him. "Do you


    still want to kidnap him for dinner tonight?" He said so gently.


    "Uhuh..."


    When I''m finally not too embarrassed, I sat straight to face Alexei and others but Niki and I are


    already alone in the dining room. Well, they sure moved fast.
