The Accountant
Bonus Chapter One
Dominic
–One Year Later –
December in San Francisco prevailed some semblance of warmth from the past autumn season. Perfect. Just perfect.
From his vantage point, with critical gray-green depths, he surveyed the vast garden below him. One same word. Perfect.
Everything was. The weather had cooperated. It was not too humid and it was not too cold.
All he needed was his family to make this special day astounding.
Beau and his son, Sebastian, was out of his reach. It had been hours.
He scowled. How long does it take to get ready? He loathed being away from them. Fuck! Where was Alec?
Even his general was nowhere to be found. Suppressing a curse, he strode back to his domain, a library cum study he shared with his wife. His wife.
The words had only become sweeter over time. His very demanding and fabulously genius wife.

"Alec," he growled.
"Tzar," his best friend and second in command greeted him with a grin.
"Where the fuck are they?" Dominic knew he shouldn't swear that much. Beau had constantly reminded him because of their son.
"Almost ready, my friend." He couldn't believe Alec had also tied the knot last year. And now his wife, Dr. Hope was very pregnant with their firstborn. But no surprise there. They knew opportunities when stared at the face.
"That was hours ago. Is everything in place?" Dominic went back to the opened glass windows and glanced down.
This was how he imagined it would be. A magical scene for his tzarina.
Fuck! And he, a Mafia King was sprouting romantic bullshit left and right. The things he would do for Beauty Grace.
"Yes, tzar. The wedding planners have everything under control. Our guests are starting to arrive as well."
