Her Volkovs #Book 1
Chapter 19
Belle's POV
I run my fingers through my hair and collected it to a ponytail. I washed my face and gargled water. I look like human again.
I went downstairs and smelled something familiar. Cooked rice and oriental chicken. When I entered the kitchen I saw the chef from Dile and another woman. He's all smiles at me but he looks like he doesn't want to initiate a conversation.
The woman offered a sweet smile and handed me a glass of water. It's refreshing to see another female in this house. I have been surrounded by men as of late and most of the women I encounter are either bat shit crazy or sexually obsessed and deprived by Nikolai and Alexei.
"Thank you." I offered her a smile
She smiled back but I noticed that the chef is looking at her like he was telling her something. She returned to helping the chef and quickly ignored me. What is up with them?
I decided to go to Alexei's room down the hallway. I knocked twice and called on him. Moments later he opened the door for me. His hair is disheveled and he's only wearing his boxer shorts.
"You're awake. Why are you already standing up? You're supposed to be in bed!" He scolded.
"I want to eat, Alexei."
"Go back to bed now princess, I'll just send over your food."
"But I don't want to eat alone."
To my surprise, Alexei carried me in his arms and placed me on his bed. His room is as big as Nikolai's but he has a huge ass TV. He's watching sports news. He then tucks me to his bed like I'm a five year old girl. This guy is too much.
"Don't move princess, or I'm not going to hesitate to tie you down to bed." Well he's crazy.
He went out of the room and shut the door on his way out. I looked around and saw the remote control on the table on the other side of the bed. I tried to reach for it without removing myself from my current position but it's just impossible. I removed the blanket and quickly reached for the remote.
"Princess." Oh shit.
Alexei is holding a tray of food in his hand.
"But Alexei, I just reached for the remote, I got bored waiting for you. It's not my fault." He placed the tray on top of the bed. "You have to eat, Dr. Marcus' advise."
"Dr. Marcus was here?"
"No, when you passed out we brought you to the clinic. The Boss decided to bring you home so we can tend to you personally."
