The Russian Don – A Dark Mafia Romance

Julianna’s Pov:-

I always get infuriated because of him. How does he do that to me? I can’t understand. I wish I could just hit him hard in the head and throw all my anger out at him. “Argh…” I groaned while throwing a punch in the air, I sighed deeply, throwing myself on the bed and staring at the ceiling. I pulled my lower lip with a small smile appeared on my face as my mind flashed the image of me sitting on his lap. I shook my head and rushed into the bathroom. ***

Days went on, “Well, it had been days since we came here now,” Vanessa said while looking at Penelope. “But, just one day Venn,” She requested, “Lorenzo has some important business back in Los Angeles, Pen, we have to leave,” she said, She sighed with a sad look, “Okay,” “Don’t worry, we will keep visiting often,” She smiled while looking at us. ***

I would miss Vanessa and Milly so much; I had grown close to both of them. Vanessa had been a good friend to me, she’s a nice woman with a kind nature and her daughter is a sweetheart. As I was walking toward the kitchen, the smell of fish reached my nose, I felt nausea. I quickly climbed the stairs while trying hard to control myself but the smell made it hard. The waves of nausea made me feel sick. I literally ran to my bathroom and vomited. I felt sick and my throat felt burned and sore. I washed my mouth and walked out of the bathroom, sitting on my bed, I poured myself water in an empty glass and gulped it down. “Jesus,” I sighed while laying down. I had been feeling sick lately, don’t know what’s wrong. I must have eaten something which upset my stomach or something. As I stared at the ceiling, thoughts of Nikolai rushed to my mind. After the past incident between me and Nikolai, we hadn’t crossed each other’s path again. I only see him at the dining table, he has become quite busy with his work and we hardly see him in the mansion. I heard Flora saying that Nikolai is handling some deals with the Spanish mafia, mafia men always seem to have something or other to deal with. I had been missing his touch ever since he left my room that night, I don’t know what happened? Nor do I know why he began ignoring me? But something did change and I was growing anxious to know why he was doing this. Tons of thoughts were clouding my mind and I was hardly concentrating on my daily duties in the mansion. I wish I could talk to someone, and share my thoughts, even though I was living among these many people I still feel lonely.

I don’t know how to describe these feelings of mine; I wish Stella was here. I miss her terribly. I need to talk to Nikolai about her, I want her here with me. It has been days and I had been doing everything Nikolai asked me to.

I stood up from my bed and made my way to his office.

Hope he listens to my request and brings her here.

I pulled the door open and stepped out of the room, the mansion was quiet and I guess everyone went their sleep by now since it was quite late. I fear what he might say, it had been days since we last talked, and after that night he didn’t come to my room at all.

I was anxious.

I took a deep breath as I stood in front of his office door, “You can do this,” I said to myself before knocking on the door.

“Come in,” Came his deep voice from the other side, I swallowed hard before pushing the door open and stepping in. I see him typing something furiously on his laptop and bundles of files were laying on the table in front of him. He looked busy and stressed.

I felt sorry for him, he’s overworking. Wish I could help him in any way.

I cleared my throat to gain his attention and I succeeded.

“Miss. Mitchell?” He asked with a look of surprise and confusion,

Back to last names are we?

“Hi, um… I want to talk to you about something, Mr. Vasiliev,” I said walking towards his desk.

“Tell me,” He replied, shutting his laptop.

“I… I want to see Stella?” I said while looking at him, “it has been days and I did everything you told me to do, please,” I requested.

He stared at me without blinking his eyes as I continued, “Can you please bring her here, just keep us together, please, she’s my bestie… I just can’t stay here knowing she’s held captive by you somewhere… Please,”

There was a heavy silence between us, he was staring at me blankly and I was literally pleading with him through my eyes. “Mr. Vasiliev, please….” I said desperately, “I had been obedient and listened to you till now…. I-” before I could finish my sentence, he stood up and strolled towards me. His face and features screamed of rage, his jaw clenched and he fitted his hands.

“Shut up!” he roared in anger while grabbing my arms, his grip was harsh and so was his tone. He turned me and pushed me over to his desk, I hissed in pain as my back came in contact with his desk.

“Mr. Vasiliev?” I was shocked at his sudden action,

“Shut the fuck up,” He said, gritting his teeth and gripping my arms harder, “I don’t wanna listen to anything… coming from your mouth,”

Tears were rolling down my eyes, I didn’t understand the sudden change in his behaviour. I was hurt. He glared at me as if he wanted to eat me alive and, I couldn’t stop my tears as I saw hatred and rage in those blue eyes for me.

All of a sudden, he began laughing, I was confused. I stared at him as he stepped back and kept laughing at me like I was some Jock. My heart was slamming against my ribcage as I was hurt and confused at his behaviour.

After some time, his laughter died down, and stared at me with pity in his eyes, “Poor Julianna,” he said while shaking his head. “You are so pathetic,”

I was shocked at his words, “Did you seriously think I would listen to your request just because I slept with you?” he asked while tilting his head sideways and looking at me.

I was speechless.

He grabbed my arm and pulled me towards him, I gasped as I was slammed against his body.

“You are nothing but a whore, Miss Julianna,” he said while glaring at me, gritting his teeth, and tightening his grip on my arm. What?
