"Don’t shoot the messenger, but your sister, Lady Vanya, said she would like to see you one of these days preferably today or tomorrow," Anton mumbled.Lady Vanya,I always hated that name. She had crowned herself that when we were young and Anton, smitten with her, was the only one who ever called her that. In fact, I could wager he still had feelings for her. I could see it in the way his shell peeled off when he was around her or when her name was mentioned. We had never talked about it and it wasn’t really my place, so I never said anything.
“Anton, did you already run to my sister and told her about my engagement?” I knew he wasn’t the one, but I liked to pull his leg since he was so weak when it came to my sister.
He just growled and I chuckled, “Well, somebody told her because we both know why she’s requesting to see me after having talked to me the other day.”
“You’re in for a treat, my friend.” Anton read my thoughts.

Audrey was on the verge of crying or maybe screaming. At me.
"Well, Audrey, these are all your things from your apartment," I explained.
"Since you'll be living here now, there's no need for your things to be back there, wouldn't you agree?" I uncrossed my arms and leaned forward.
"I-I think you're taking things too fast," she spoke up.
Yup, screaming it was. Was she breaking out of her shell?
"First, you kidnap me, then you tell me I have to marry you, and now you break into my apartment and clear out my things. I never said I wanted any of this," her innocent brown eyes finally met mine. Only this time, there was defiance, a growing fierce spirit. And I loved it.
I sauntered toward her and brushed her hair with my hand before cupping her face gently. She trembled.Got ya, darling.I closed the remaining distance and pulled in close for a kiss. She gasped. I paused just before our lips met and then walked away with a sly smile on my face. Audrey, however, remained transfixed in confusion. From her expression, I suddenly realized there was something pleasurable in teasing her, a dark joy, especially coupled with the untainted aura she had about her.
"How are you and the baby feeling, by the way?" I inquired.
She paused and touched her belly. She looked puzzled, like she didn't think I was that interested in the baby.
"We're doing fine," she cleared my throat.
"That's wonderful. And have you thought of a name yet?" The question came out of nowhere, but as I said it, I realized I was curious.
"No. No, I haven't," she answered, "I mean, I don't know if it'll be a boy or girl."
"I say let's have numerous names ready," I suggested. It was the first time I got excited about the prospect of having a child.
"Well, what names do you have in mind?" She wondered.
"Hmm. Well, there's Nikolai if it's a boy, and Irina if it's a girl," I offered.
"I was thinking of... Charles or Grace." She countered.
"You just made those up right now, didn't you?" I chuckled.
"Yeah, the Grace name.” She admitted. “Charles, however, has always been a name I thought would be cool for any male child of mine."
"Hmm, okay. Let's do this then. If it's a boy, we'll call him Charles and if it's a girl, we'll call her Irina. Deal?" I arched his brow.
"Uuuh. Okay then. Why Irina though?"
"Irina was the name of my mother," I shrugged.
She nodded and got lost in thoughts perusing the boxes with her stuff.
“Well, I need to get going now, but please feel free to roam the house as you please. It’s your home now, too." I said gently trying to make her see the bright side of this new arrangement.
She peered into my eyes, her look full of unreleased anger. Then, determination took place as she made her way towards me. Before I could see through her intention, she attacked my mouth in a passionate kiss.
My entire body lit up and my dick jerked upward. I slid down one of my hands, grabbed her ass while and growled wildly.
