LEV

Feliks and I follow Henry and Brooke into the little motel room and close the door behind us.

“What the hell is going on?” Henry demands.

“Henry, this is Lev,” Brooke explains, not meeting my eyes.

“And I’m Feliks,” Feliks jumps in, immediately shaking Henry’s hand.

Henry’s eyes light up. “Well, hello…”

Feliks gives him one of his flirtatious grins, and the two make eyes at each other like we’re all here on a fucking Tinder date.

I clear my throat.

Both men turn to look in my direction, and Feliks straightens like the soldier he’s supposed to be.

“How did you find me?” Brooke asks.

“You left in a refrigerated delivery truck. Common sense says you’d get off at the next stop. Not a very smart move hiding out in a motel across the road from where Joe’s next stop was.”

“Well, forgive me for being an amateur at running from the mafia.”

“Bratva,” I remind her.

She continues to shoot bullets at me from her eyes.

The motel room is a shithole.

This was better than being with me?

“You’re coming home with me,” I say, unable to control the edge in my tone.

“No, I’m not,” she bites back.

“And not if I can help it,” Henry says, taking a step forward.

I shift my gaze to him. He’s clearly intimidated, but I have a feeling he’d throw himself in front of Brooke to stop me from getting to her.

I like this guy.

He knows who we are, and he’s still got the balls to stand up to me. I admire his need to protect her. Even if it is futile. Because stopping me from taking Brooke home with me will be like trying to stop a volcanic eruption. Impossible. I have layers and layers of destruction boiling inside me, ready to blow, and the anger ready to detonate it. But I respect his willingness to try. He cares about her. Not because he wants to fuck her but because he genuinely loves her, and I appreciate that.

I give Feliks a knowing look, and he understands immediately. I want time alone with Brooke.

He turns to Henry. “Perhaps you and I should step outside and let these two talk.”

Henry shoots Brooke a look. What should I do here?

“That’s very good advice you should listen to,” I say to him.

Brooke nods, and Henry lets Feliks guide him toward the door.

“You smoke?” Feliks asks.

“Only after sex,” Henry replies absentmindedly as he watches Brooke and me with a concerned look on his face.

Feliks smirks and gives him a wink. “Let’s have a cigarette first and then see how we go, shall we?”

Once they’re gone and it’s just me and my little runaway, I gesture for her to sit.

Which she refuses, of course.

“I’m fine right here.”

I send her a warning look. “Sit down.”

She gives me a filthy look but sits on the edge of the bed anyway. “If it means we can get this over and done with quickly.”

“Oh, that’s not going to happen.”

I admit it’s hard to look at her because I’m barely containing the anger inside.

She fucking left me.
