A lot has happened in a short amount of time. I’m still trying to wrap my mind around it.
Aurora and Misha are a thing. Like an actual couple.
With Misha belonging to the bratva and Aurora’s father still their enemy, I don’t see how this will work.
Walking to the dining hall with my friend, I bite my bottom lip to keep the words in. She’s so freaking happy, and the last thing I want to do is pop her bubble.
We’re having dinner with Misha and his friends, which means I have to sit at a table with three bratva enforcers who probably won’t hesitate to kill me once we set foot off St. Monarch’s grounds.
Yay me.
When we reach the table, my eyes skim over the three men. They’re all attractive in their own way, and I’m sure girls fall over their feet to spend a night with them.
Just not this girl. My spine is stiff as Alek, the insane one, reaches for the chair next to his, yanking it back while muttering, “Sit your ass down, woman. I’m starving.”
You’re doing this for Aurora.
“Be still my beating heart,” I mutter as I slump down in the chair. I watch as Misha kisses Aurora on the forehead, and the moment is so sweet I briefly forget about the lunatic next to me.
I pick up a menu, and while scanning over the selection of food, I wave a server closer.
“What would you like to order, Madam?” the server asks.
I tap my pointer finger on my bottom lip as I say, “I want calamari with lemon butter, the fifty-hour-cooked beef short rib, and thhhhe…”
“IisusKhristos,” Alek mutters next to me. “Just bring her the whole fucking menu.”
Shooting the jerk a scowl, I say. “Shut up.” I turn my attention back to the server and smile at him. “And I’ll have a serving of fries.” Just as the server looks at Alek, I add, “Oh, and a Sprite Zero, please.”
“Seriously?” Alek stares at me. “Diet soda won’t help shit when you eat so much.”
Excuse me?
My temper flares sky-high as I glare at the man who clearly has a death wish. “Are you calling me fat?”
His eyes drift over me, then the corner of his mouth lifts in a dark smirk. “No.”
Yeah, that’s what I thought.
“I like Sprite Zero,” I explain, then look at Aurora. “What are you having?”
“Your leftovers,” she chuckles.
Everyone places their orders, then Aurora and Misha forget about the world around them and start whispering to each other.
They look good together.
It takes a while before they notice Alek, Armani, and me staring at them.
Searching for a safe topic of conversation, I say, “Aurora and I are going to the nearby town on Saturday.”
“You’re what?” Misha asks, giving me an incredulous look.
Okay, maybe that wasn’t a safe topic. My bad.
Aurora smiles at Misha. “Oh yes, I forgot to tell you. We’re going shopping.”
Alek raises his eyebrows and chuckles. “And I’m told to behave when you’re about to lose your shit.”
