I trace my fingers along his angular jaw. “Why don’t you show me later tonight?”
Sergey drapes his arm over my shoulder and steers me back to the party. “Come on, we better get back inside before you convince me to ditch our guests and fuck you senseless, you little minx.”
“I thought I was your little angel,” I say, my tone teasing as I walk ahead of him and swing my hips, taunting him a little more.
He smacks my ass before leading the way through the doors, joining the people gathering to celebrate our new home.

Rosita gives me an apologetic smile as Sasha comes bouncing through the doors, a bright grin on her face even though she looks like she is ready to fall asleep at a moment’s notice.
“I’m sorry,” Rosita says as we reach the top of the stairs. “I’ve been trying to get her to go to bed but she wanted to listen to the music downstairs. And then it turned into wanting to wait for both of you to come up and tuck her into bed. She fell asleep for a little bit but then she woke up again.”
Sergey grins and catches Sasha as she flings herself at him. Her chubby baby cheeks puff up as she shrieks with laughter.
My heart warms watching the two of them together. “It’s okay, Rosita. Even if you did get her into bed, I doubt that she would have gone to sleep.”
Rosita nods and heads down the stairs, ready to retire to the guest house she occupies on the other side of the property. “Have a good night. I’ll see you in the morning.”
“Take tomorrow off," says Sergey,” looking back and forth between me and Sasha. “I think I’ll have a fun day with my girls.”
Rosita drums her fingers on the banister. “If that’s the case, then I'll seize the day and visit my mother upstate.”
“Take a long weekend then.” He tosses Sasha in the air and catches her. “Spend some time with your mother. I’m sure that I can keep my girls busy for a weekend.”
I loop my arm around his waist as Rosita leaves. Sergey wraps his arm over my shoulder and leads me into Sasha’s bedroom.
“Story!” Sasha shouts as soon as Sergey sets her down on her queen-sized bed.
I kick off my heels and crawl to her on the bed, leaning my back against the mountain of pillows next to her headboard.
Sergey climbs into bed with us on the other side of her. He grabs one of the storybooks from her side table.
As he begins to read the story of the three bears, I close my eyes and listen to the soothing sound of his deep voice. Seeing him give Sasha the same affection I wished for as a little girl was fulfilling.
If someone had told me that my father’s debts would lead me to this life, I would have thought they were joking.
It should have been impossible, but the worst days of my life brought me the best ones.
As I lie here with Sasha and Sergey, I wouldn’t trade a moment of my life for anything. Everything I've been through has led me to them.
This is a perfect life. My perfect life.
