As easy as that sounded, I was too much of a troublemaker to do much good.










CHAPTER 16

Angel

“What are we doing here? I thought we were going home after dinner?” I questioned Nikolai with a raised brow as he pulled the car into the parking garage of his club.

“What? Eager for your punishment already,lisichka?” He teased with a chuckle as he pulled into his designated parking spot. “I just have a meeting then we can go,” he said while turning off the car.

“Oh, I wasn’t aware you had business tonight.” Well, what was I doing here then? Unless he intended on pulling me into this meeting of his, which I really hope wasn’t the case because I would have no idea what it would be about.

“It was last minute, I apologize. It shouldn’t take long though, but I have something planned to keep you occupied and entertained in the meantime.” He told me before exiting the car and rounding to my side, opening my door for me and helping me out.

“I don't know if I should take that as a good thing or not.” There was a playful hint to his smile, but that could mean so many different things. Was he just going to let me have free roam of the club or something? Or was he going to stick me in a corner with other means to keep me distracted?

“Don’t worry,lisichka, you’ll love the surprise.” He assured me with a soft chuckle.

Moments later, we were on the third floor of his club where all the offices were at. We avoided having to go through the whole club because the elevator opened into the hallway directly. Nikolai’s office was at the end of the hallway, and it was huge.

His office was equipped with a mini bar, shelves filled with expensive liquor, a fully furnished area with couches, a coffee table, a meeting table with chairs, and a big wooden desk which got some ideas running through my mind. One whole side was a floor to ceiling window where you could see out into the club, and you could faintly hear the music being played down below.

“Welcome to my office, this is where all things business, legal and not so legal, get done.” Nikolai led me over to the window as he spoke, keeping his hand at the small of my back the whole time.

“Wow, this place is amazing.” I gasped in awe as I took in the floors below me. On the main floor was the bar area, DJ stage, a stage with poles, a huge dance floor, tables and chairs, and booths. The second floor was a wrap-around balcony with ambient lighting, couches and lounge chairs, small dance stages with poles. Of course, the third floor was just filled with offices of all kinds from the manager’s office to security to Nikolai’s.

The club was packed with high profile attendees from what I could see from a quick glance; kids of high profile politicians, young celebrities, and other famous people whose presence paired with their social media would blow this place up. “Well, I can see why it’s one of the most popular ones.” His club made top ten in the whole state and top three of Nespin. “I’m guessing you only have the good stuff here then.”

“Of course, only the best. It’s one of my tamer clubs, and this is the first club I opened.” Nikolai sounded proud, and the way his face lit up when he spoke carried his point through.

“How many do you own exactly? And what do you mean it’s your more tamer one?” I was aware he owned a few from my search before, but I didn’t look into the details much.

“I own five in the city, including this one and the newer one I co-own with Arseny. I started Guilty in the recent years, and it picked up more than expected. Arseny was showing interest in starting his own, so I offered Guilty to him. He runs basically the whole show, and I’m just the co-owner that barely pops in.” Nikolai answered as he slipped his arm fully around my waist and brought me closer to him.

“Wait, Guilty? As in the sex club Guilty? That’s your club too?” It was a surprise to hear because it was a little hard picturing him running a sex club. Arseny though, I could somewhat see, barely.

“Partially, yes. Don’t worry, I’ve got plans for us in the near future at Guilty.” His confident and smug smirk meant he wouldn’t take no for any answer.
