Chapter 16: Chapter 16

"What are you doing? Let me through." The two brick of a wall looks at each other then at me standing in front of the elevator door. They won't stop me from escaping Elijah.

"Sorry madam, but the boss said we shouldn’t let you out of the suite." I glare at the lookalike twin. Thick Russian accent fall out of his thin lips. I frown searching for my phone in my purse calling the one person they will listen to.

"Elijah will you be kind enough to tell your bodyguards to let me through?" I say sweetly.

"And where do you think you are going to?" his voice booms through the speakers.

"Lady business." he sighs.

"Hand the phone over to Kirill." I did watching as they communicate in Russian while I tap my shoes on the floor antsy in hopes to meet up with my flight in time. I dressed up in the most casual way drawing no attention to me. A little Louis Vuitton dress and matching leopard heels, a purse to complete the ensemble which carried my passport and key to my locker in the airport where most of things are being kept and fully secured.

Smiling when I got back my phone fixing it to my ear hearing his command. "Yes Papi, I will not misbehave." I drawl playfully looking at his men blocking my path to the elevator.

"Kirill and Ivan will be with you all the way." I reply a thanks gracing my lips with a smile looking at my new babysitters as I hung up the call.

"Well let’s get on with it." I sashay past them into the elevator. As the door closes, I took one last look at the penthouse an obvious smirk on my face, slyly looking at two huge men behind me. Someone is going to be in big trouble soon.

They both followed me into every store I went into, it got irritating to say the least and annoying. They acted like pesky flies that won’t go away. Face stoic and rigid with my shopping bags filling every ounce of space on their arms.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! What are you trying to do? You can’t come in here with me." I stop them from moving further at the ladies' room.

"Boss instructed to not let you out of our sight." Ivan says which I roll my eyes at him.

"And I am not going out of your sight. I only want to take my pregnancy test in there. So no." crossing my arms over my chest retorting adamantly.

"We are coming in with you, madam." Kirill says struggling to keep one of my many shopping bags from falling. I chuckle.

"And I still say no. Or do you want to see what your boss fucks every night? Maybe i could just call him and tell him that my new babysitters wish to see his property." I know I am playing dirty but dirty will save me from these two. They shift uncomfortably causing the smile to grow bigger on my face.

"Stay here and wait till I know if I have next Russian Mafia prince inside me. Okay?" titling my head observing them look at each other queasy then back at me. They both nod reluctantly.

I walk inside the ladies’ room, stall after stall I open to see if I’m all alone and I am after the last stall. Smiling I strut to the mirror pulling my hair into a nice bun and then quietly taking my heels off. My eyes search for the window.

Turning on the tap after flushing a toilet, I climb out to my freedom.

Elijah

Gurgling chokes echoes in the dark room watching the man spew his own blood. My men surrounds me watching as I torture the prisoner hanging off the ceiling. My phone rings in my jacket been held by Alexei who sat at the far corner with a comical psycho grin. Fishing out the phone, he throws it to me. Catching it, Kirill's voice came through and what I heard made me furious.

"Chto vy imeyete v vidu , vy poteryali yeye?" (What do you mean by you lost her?) I growl hearing Kirill tell me the nonsense of how he lost Nia at the pharmacy.

"YA skazal tebe ne otpustitʹ yeye iz vidu." (I told you not to let her out of your sight.) I nod at Alexei to finish the job walking out of the warehouse towards my car. How can one tiny woman escape two big man that could crush a skull with the palm of their hands?

"Boss , no ona skazala , chto khochet vzyatʹ test na beremennostʹ ." (Boss, but she said she

want to take a pregnancy test.) Ivan voice spoke. Pulling the door open I got in hearing him explain further.

"I vy dolzhny byli sledovatʹ za ney vnutri , potomu chto ona solgala ! YA ne trakhayu , chto tvoye opravdaniye Ivan . Naydi yeye ili yeshche..." (And you should have followed her inside because she lied! I don’t give a fuck what your excuse is Ivan. Find her or else...) Leaving the comment hanging as I slammed the phone on the console speeding off.

My phone went off, glancing at the caller ID I connect to my airpod swerving through cars. "Alexei. Da. Track her." pissed at her futile effort to escape me. My hands tighten on the wheel thinking of ways to punish her for running, again. What she doesn't know is that I have the best trackers in the world working for me.

"Vlad. Found her."

"Good. Send me her location." Glancing at the location I growl speeding faster towards the airport. "You are in so much trouble princess."

Sonia

"Drop me down!"

I didn't expect to be cornered at the alley by the airport. Avoiding main roads with CCTV cameras, I thought my luck shines brighter than no other but it literally ran out when I tried to rush to the airport.

"How dare you manhandle me? Do you know who I am? Elijah must hear this. He's going to be so mad at both of you treating me like a piece of dirt." I scream as they dragged me further away from the airport towards the sleek black luxurious Audi.

Opening the back door, I got forced in cursing at Tweedledee and Tweedledum. I was this close...this close. Heaving rapidly, my heart thumping erratically due to the struggle with Elijah's thugs. My hair is such a mess as I glare at the tinted window hoping the thunder I'm

asking for strikes those two. How did they even catch up with me when I took the unseen routes to the airport? Did I miss a camera? Are they tracking me with my clothes?

Still pondering on my thoughts, my gaze shifts to the movement of the drivers door as it opens and in came in a jaw dropping super pissed, vein popping...

"Elijah?" oh shit. I gulp catching his murderous glare behind the wheels.

"Be afraid. Be very afraid Nia." he grins devilishly at me.
