Her Volkovs #Book 3
Chapter 9
Belle's POV
Alexei said something to the driver in Russian then focused his attention on me.
He pulled me toward his chest and wrapped his arms around me. He made me sit on his lap while I'm on my side.
I did not put up a fight anymore. After what has happened, my mind and body just simply can't function. I rested on top of Alexei and buried my face on his neck.
"My brother...." He said, as he tries to open a conversation about Nikolai but I quickly interrupted him.
"How's your girlfriend Alexei?"
There's a moment of silence after I asked the question. I know that he's no expecting me to be so casual about this topic. In my part, if he and Nikolai are in love with Yrina, there's really nothing that I can do about it anymore.
"She's right here in front of me." He replied.
"I am not Yrina."
"You're right. She will never be you."
"Do you love her?"
"My girlfriend? Hell yes! We just had a misunderstanding. She walked away without giving me the chance to explain."
"What's there to explain if she saw you lie and cheat on her?"
"I never cheated on her. We never did. She has always been our one and only. The apple of our eyes. She will understand in time. And we will get her back."
"How can you be so sure that you will get her back?"
"I'm not really sure but we can always drag her back to us."
I pushed his face instantly but he just soft chuckles in response. Why do I have a feeling that he's not even kidding?
I burried my face back to his neck, "I hate you Alexei, don't you dare do that."
"Hmmm..." He murmured and kissed me on my hair.
We stayed like this for a long while. I just let him caress and kiss me. I want to make the most out of every second with him.
I know and understand that Alexei and Nikolai are inseparable. They have been dependent on each other since the time that they stood on their own and made a name for themselves. They have been brothers long before I even came into their lives. And I don't want that to change just because of me.
I know that sooner than later, I have to completely remove myself from the equation for everyone's sake. And for this baby's sake.
"Let's talk about Viktor." He said out of nowhere.
I crinkled my eyebrows, "Viktor?"
"Yes." He then brushes his palm over my abdomen."Viktor Alexei Volkov, our baby's name."
I then remember that Viktor is Alexei's father. Vyacheslav's bestfriend and right hand. Matushka once told me that the Russians always name their children after the parent and grandparent as part of their culture.
I buried my face back to his neck as tears start to flow down again. "I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!" I hit his chest a couple of times but he just takes everything like a gentleman that he is.
"I will be here for you. Me and little Viktor will be here for you all the way Matushka Belle. I will not let anything bad happen to you and our baby."
Alexei and I both know that Nikolai is the father of this baby but this man wants to take responsibility without even thinking twice. Alexei just being Alexei.
Without hesitation, I looked him in his beautiful hazel eyes and reached for his lips. He clipped my chin and kissed me passionately in response. His lips are soft and warm against mine, I found myself catching my breathe when he finally disconnected.
"Don't call my baby a Volkov." I said.
"OUR baby..." He emphasized the first word before continuing, "And I'm a Volkov so the little nut is a Volkov."
"You're a Volkov?"
