“Gurl, when did you get back!?” Zariha’s aunt asks her excitedly.
“Vanya forced me here after he killed Amin.” she shrugs as if it was nothing.
“He killed him? Well, my golly, that's the best thing that’s ever happened.” Chelsea uses her country accent, and she laughs.
Chelsea was born and raised in the US, whereas me and Zariha were born and raised in Russia. She doesn’t speak Russian, so we used that against her when we moved here together in middle school.
Me and Zariha have known each other since we were baby’s, learned how to walk and talk together, and we hung out twenty-four-seven. Then we fell in love.
I was an heir to my father, so we moved to California. Then she ran.
“Z, we gotta go.” I say and she grabs my forearm.
“‘Kay. Bye, Auntie.” Chelsea waves and we walk away.
“She didn’t like Amin.” Zariha says and smiles.
“I noticed.” we reach her car and she gets into the passenger seat.
I reached the driver’s side and got in, then started the engine and backed up.
Zariha POV
I walked into the bedroom and held Lev closely.
“Is he okay?” Vanya asks me.
I nod, but continue holding Lev protectively.
“Boss, Zinov is here.” a woman says.
“Dammit.” he mutters under his breath. “Okay, bring a guard here to watch these two.”
He walks out of the room before the woman could say anything.
“Benedikt, you’re needed in Boss’s chamber.” the woman says into a walkie, and my eyes widen in fear.
All the memories replay.
Benedikt walking into my chamber.
Walking up to my bed.
Touching my thigh, before raping me.
“No. Someone else.” I say, fear laced with the words.
“Why?” she asks in an annoyed tone.
“I- please.. Just not Benedikt.” her eyes widen and glaze over with fear, horror, and.. understanding? She dials the walkie and changed who was to watch me.
“I’m telling Boss. He needs to know.” she says and I simply nod.
“I understand. Do what you need to.” I say and the door opens.
A man walks in and stops by the door.
“I will leave it to you, Liam.” the woman says and walks out of the room without saying another word.
