Page 14 of The Broken Promises

No! Gabriel can still remember my nipples. Dmitri has no problem with their size, but Gabriel was particular about them. It’s not unusual for two people to have similar faces, but it is improbable that they will also have the same size of nipples.

I can't let Gabriel slide into my life again. His kisses feel like heaven now, but my life will be hell once he gets in. I need to take him out of my life. I can give up my revenge and run away – from the two of them. I'll never be Sasha again.

“Don’t do this,” I whisper to Dmitri when he slides his kisses to my cheeks. He stops and looks at me. "Please."

Dmitri looks at Gabriel, who is busy filling every inch of my back with kisses. He wants to stop, but he's thinking of his stupid pride. Taking back his offer makes him look weak for a future Bratva brigadier. He takes me away from Gabriel and carries me to the couch.

“Please,” I whisper again and still get ignored.

Dmitri positions me on top of him. He hides his reluctance by looking at me like I'm a traitor. I push his chest to stand up, but he tightens his hold and glares at me. Tears mist my eyes as my anger blows up again. He looks away from me and guides his cock to my pussy. He frowns after discovering I'm wet and ready. What can I do? My body cannot stop reacting to his passion even when my mind objects.

I let go of a soft cry when Dmitri pushes all of his cock inside me. I shake when Gabriel walks closer to us.

This monster.Everything Gabriel showed me before has no bits of truth. He's the most insensitive and heartless person I know. Anyone can tell that I don't want this and want to stop. If he rejects Dmitri's offer, the latter won't have to keep his pride.

"I hate you," I utter. It's for both of them.

It’s also my way of surrendering to everything. To Dmitri’s broken promise. My revenge against Gabriel. To loving both of them. But it’s also a new promise that I’ll run away from them and become whatever I can be without them.

They both stop moving like my words are an avalanche of snow. Dmitri holds my face and looks at me for a while. His angry eyes soften and become misty, too. He rolls me away from Gabriel and pulls out of me.

“I can’t share her,” Dmitri declares.

Dmitri

I pull the car in front of a small suburban house with picket fences. Sasha looks at me with curious eyes. She hasn't said anything since I told her to get in the car. I know she's relieved I stopped my stupidity about sharing her with Gabriel. But that doesn't lessen her anger towards me.

I hate you.

Her words woke me. Sasha warned me, and I ignored her. But when she spoke the words, it was as if they came deep from her soul. I knew that if I brushed it off, I could lose her. I'll never have another chance with her.

"Let's go inside," I say, and step out of the car.

She doesn't say anything and follows me. Her silence is driving me crazy. She's still acting like I'm punishing her when it is clear that I've already regretted my decision. I chuckle and frown a little. She's turning out to be wife material. They say only a wife can manipulate a man with her silence, and she's doing it well.

"Sasha," I gently call before we reach the door. I pull her close and push my forehead on one side of her face. "I'm sorry."

Sasha looks at me. When she opens her mouth to speak, I stop her with a kiss. I'm afraid Sasha will repeat her hateful words. She turns her body to face me without breaking our kiss. Her palms lay flat on my chest. Her fingernails bury into my skin more. She glares at me after I pull away from her and starts punching my chest.

"Why can't you believe me? Why do I have to hate you for you to believe me?" She asks while punching me. "I…" her voice trails and her cries grow louder.

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry," I repeat while caging Sasha in my embrace and hushing her cries with kisses.

“I was so scared, you asshole!” Sasha admits. “I asked for your protection, but you almost gave me to the man who…”

“Who what, Sasha?”

A sudden suspicion flares in my head. Is it Gabriel who harmed her? Did she seek me because Gabriel can't touch her while she's with me? No. Sasha trembles in fear at the sight of things that remind her of the past. Mirrors, water, and dark rooms. She would be terrified to see Gabriel if he did something to her.

“Who could kill me,” she adds.

"I will never let him. Nor will I let Vitaly or anyone take you from me."

"Let me go. You don't have to protect me anymore. I'll vanish from you and never be an inch closer to anything Bratva,” Sasha steps back and looks me in the eyes. "And what is this? Why are you…?"

She falls silent when I open the door and present the simple house to her. It's different from the mansion where we stay. It's tiny, with cheaper stuff and child-friendly corners.
