“We need to talk at some point, Sonia,” I said, and as she raised her eyebrows and smirked, the irony of my statement wasn’t lost on me.
Sonia didn’t rub it in my face, though. I knew she wouldn’t. That wasn’t Sonia’s way. She wasn’t a person who said I told you so.
Instead, she simply nodded and smiled, coming up onto her tiptoes and tilting her chin, begging for a kiss. Naturally, I obliged but forced myself to make it short and sweet.
“And you need to promise me not to go sneaking out alone again,” I said.
Watching her roll her eyes in her usual fashion when faced with what she deemed the overprotectiveness of her family, I hid my smirk. She was so cute when she did that, but I needed her to heed my warning, so I wasn’t about to let her know how her sassiness affected me.
“I mean it, Sonia, if you do something that puts your safety into jeopardy like that again, I’ll put you over my knee and spank that luscious bottom of yours until you learn your lesson,” I said firmly, turning her face up to look at me as I spoke.
Her eyes were wide as she stared at me, but by the way she was biting back an excited grin, I had a feeling that my words hadn’t quite the effect as was intended. Instead of making her trepidatious, if I didn’t know better, I would say she liked the idea of a spanking. Again, I hid my smirk behind my firm expression, not wanting her to know that I had clocked her interest. Not when I was trying to impress upon her that she needed to be more careful with her safety.
But it was enticing to know just how curious Sonia was about sex. After her response to me last night and her interest in spanking today, I knew without a doubt that Sonia was my perfect match in all ways. I wondered just how curious she was and just what her boundaries were because I planned on pushing all of my Little Miss Trouble’s boundaries as far and as often as I could from now on. She was inexperienced, so I would start slow, but soon, I would know every little fantasy she had, and I would ensure to fulfil them all.
Right now, though, I needed her to take her safety seriously.
“Promise me, Sonia. You’re mine now, and I can’t bear for anything to happen to you,” I said, pulling her close and pressing my forehead to hers.
“Okay,” she promised solemnly.
“Things won’t be easy, but we’ll figure out what to do next once I am back from whatever Miki has me doing,” I tried to reassure her, kissing her deeply one last time before we had to part.
We slipped out of my flat, and I quickly walked her to her car before I retrieved my own. Once we reached the Estate, I distracted the guards at the gate so she could drive through without notice. Then, I followed her inside and helped her sneak back into the house before any of the family became aware she was gone.
Sonia hurried upstairs, turning briefly at the top to wave. I winked and grinned in delight as she blew me a kiss before heading to her room as I went in search of the boss.
Miki was in the office with Vlad, and as soon as I entered, he stood up.
“I’ve got to talk with Glowacki. I need you with me,” he told me in a rush.
“There have been another couple of incidents,” he said as we headed out, filling me in on the details as Vlad drove us to the Polish boss’s home.
Another of our drug dealers had been murdered, and his stash of drugs and cash stolen. But worse, they killed his wife, too. Bastards!
On top of that, one of our legitimate restaurants had been broken into during the night and trashed. There was no cash there to take, so it was a deliberate case of destroying the place to cause us inconvenience rather than to steal anything.
This was now spilling over into our legal business, too. We needed to nip it in the bud quickly before the police noticed too many coincidences, put two and two together, realised we were being targeted, and decided to look into why that might be.
We had a few of the local constabulary in our pockets, and so did Glowacki, but we didn’t have them all. We couldn’t afford some law officer somewhere getting suspicious of exactly where all of our cash came from and investigating. In our line of business, we needed to fly under the radar as much as possible, and that meant not exposing ourselves to any unnecessary problems, like overzealous police officers looking to make a name for themselves.
Vlad and I waited in the car while Miki went in to talk to Glowacki alone. We both found that strange, but he was the Pakhan, so when he insisted we stay outside and wait for him instead of coming inside as was usual, we did what he said. While he was gone, I used the time to mull over the best way to approach my Plan A. I needed to have my thoughts together in case I needed to work harder at persuading Uncle Maxim than I thought before I made that all-important call.
CHAPTER 20
SONIA
SUNDAY – ROMI IS MINE!
After blowing Romi a quick kiss, I hurried to my bedroom, making sure nobody saw me.
As soon as I was safely inside my room, I threw myself down on the bed, buried my face in my pillows, and shrieked loudly, finally letting out all of the triumphant excitement I had been bottling up inside.
Oh, my goodness! I did it! I seduced Romi.
Last night had been fantastic. I couldn’t wait to continue things. I grinned wickedly at the thought.
Ouch. I stretched, feeling a slight twinge. I was still a bit sore and swollen from Romi’s treatment of me, but I loved the feeling. I smiled happily and giggled as I thought about it. I couldn’t quite believe my plan had worked.
