chapter 262
circling outside, Kira was still brimming over with anger, as if the minutes she’d spent outside hadn’t changed the way she felt. she even wondered why she’d been so worried about him that she’d gotten so angry. she decided to go back to her room, and just as she was about to go through the hall door, she came face to face with the doctor who was looking after him. She could have asked him how he was, but knowing the powerful and domineering mobster that Dimitri was, he’d certainly forbidden the poor man to talk to anyone about his condition. Dimitri had forbidden any of his men in the manor to speak to her, except in extreme emergencies, and from what she remembered, she didn’t think she reeked of the plague. as she reached the steps leading upstairs, she was torn between going to see him and going back to her room. she turned around and took the path leading to his office. when she got to the door, she knocked and didn’t wait for his reply, but before she could get through the door, Youri’s head popped past it to see who was there.
-You didn’t believe another attack was still there, and I don’t think an enemy would have struck before attacking you, I think.
-you’re not funny at all Kira, are you going to come in?
she walked past him and ignored him completely. she saw another door ajar and knew that this was the room Dimitri was in, as he wasn’t in his office, so she went towards it and when she pushed it open, she saw him lying on a bed similar to the one in his bedroom. his eyes were closed and she thought he was probably sleeping off the fatigue of what he’d been through. She lifted the comforter and saw the bandage. She ran her hand over it and felt him quiver, but quickly withdrew her hand as she thought she’d hurt him. Dimitri’s breathing had stopped. He’d wanted to open his eyes the moment he’d seen her enter the room, but he wanted to know her intentions. She was just a harmless kid who cared about her life, but he’d had enough time with women over the years that he’d learned not to trust them, so even if this girl seemed like a little butterfly, he still wanted to put her to the test. When he felt a second person enter, he knew it was Yuri.
-What did the doctor say? was the wound deep enough or not? and is he just sleeping if he’s the one who put him in a coma?
-I don’t know why you’re asking all these questions, Kira. He was a doctor and he did what he had to do to make him feel better and get him back on his feet as quickly as possible, so there’s no need to worry about him, you know.
-When he wakes up, tell him I’m tired of staying in this mansion if I’m always going to be alone. i’m a human being and i need to be surrounded by human beings and if that’s not possible then i want to leave and if he doesn’t, i think i’ll go up to the room with a knife and when you tell him that, he’ll understand what i’m talking about. thank you for passing on the message.
Dimitri’s heart skipped a beat at what she’d just said. He didn’t want to believe for a moment that she was thinking of killing herself if he didn’t set her free. This girl had become far too important to him to know she was away from him for just a few moments. She wanted to pull away from him but Dimitri held her against him. He didn’t want her to leave this room and to make her stay because he knew it would work, he captured her lips. she couldn’t keep up with him at all because this kiss was hard, a real punishment kiss, but she still managed to love. Dimitri was oblivious to the fact that Yuri was there, for the only person who mattered at that moment was his kid. the punishing kiss had turned into a soft, fiery one. breathless, Kira parted her lips and, realizing that her position on top of him was certainly hurting, she wanted to straighten up but he held her against him.
-I’m not going to leave Dimitri, but I realize that my position is hurting you, so that’s the only reason I wanted to stand up straight, you understand.
he realized he’d just panicked and let her sit up, because at least she was thinking about his condition. Kira lay down beside him, but Dimitri felt the emptiness because it was very different from the moment when she was actually lying on him, but it was better than nothing. Youri was seriously starting to feel silly in this room because everyone seemed to be in their own bubble and yet he was in charge of looking after the boss.
-Well, now that she’s passed the test, I suppose I could leave, couldn’t I? or do you still need me for something else?
-Kira asked, looking hard at Dimitri.
He said nothing and motioned for Yuri to leave. When the door closed on him, Dimitri didn’t wait and pressed his lips to Kira’s. She seemed sulky at first, but eventually gave in. She buried her hands in the man’s hair and as he continued his exploration of the girl’s body, she became more and more panting and by mistake touched his wound, causing him to grunt. Kira realized what was really going on and took the initiative of kissing Dimitri herself. When she ended the kiss, just as he was expecting more, she arranged her clothes and tried to comb the mafioso’s hair back as she had completely messed it up. Dimitri didn’t understand her reluctance at all. It hadn’t occurred to him to go any further, despite the fact that his body was crying out for her, but the fact that she’d taken the initiative to put an end to it really bothered him.
-Dimitri, don’t look at me like that. I’m certainly no adventurer in this field, but I know perfectly well what was going to happen and I wouldn’t want you to suffer any more than you are right now with your wound. it could reopen and you know what it feels like to sew a wound.
-so… you didn’t put an end to it because… because…
-Of course not, of course not, and I’m not very good at talking about this sort of thing, Dimitri, so if you don’t mind, I’d like to change the subject, if you don’t mind? why didn’t you want me to come and see you when you arrived? I was worried when Youri told me you were all alone with no one to cover for you. I asked them to go and help you but they told me your order was that they stay with me for my protection. you really like to lend yourself to danger it seems.
-The only thing I regret about what happened today is the fact that you saw part of the show, otherwise I’m used to it. The only reason I put you on the sidelines every time is because I want to protect you.
-And if I’m going to be your successor tomorrow, I’m going to have to learn the ropes, aren’t I, or do you want this empire to disappear after your reign?
this sentence had just alerted all the mafioso’s senses to the fact that it didn’t have just one meaning, but several, and he needed to understand all these meanings. she could only run the mafia if she became his wife and…
-are you saying you’d like to become my wife, Miss Fiodora?
Kira bit her lip as she realized he’d asked the question the way he’d meant it, but she hadn’t had such an idea in her head at all, and even if she could see herself getting married one day, she wanted a Prince Charming, not a bloodthirsty man. she huffed, closing her eyes as Dimitri smirked teasingly.
-You know that if you propose to me, I won’t say no, kiddo.
-and traditionally, Dimitri, it’s the man who should kneel on the ground, as a sign of his submission and loyalty to the woman he’s going to marry. I thought you knew that at least.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
-Are we really talking about marriage here?
Kira felt embarrassed because they were really talking about marriage and yet they knew very little about each other despite the fact that she felt complete with him. she got up to leave but Dimitri made her prisoner on the bed by staying on top of her without crushing her. the girl’s breathing became jerky and attracted like a magnet by her lips, Dimitri took all his time to savor them as if his life depended on it.
