Chapter Fifteen

Elaine

Three weeks after getting snatched from the airport and brought to Nikolai’s bratva headquarters, and I’m not closer to returning home than I was when I first got here.

I’ve managed to reduce the amount of intimacy between Nikolai and me, and I haven’t had sex with him at all since I got here. To be completely honest, though, that’s not all my doing. He’s been off on wild adventures lately, fighting with the Fedorov mafia night and day. I barely even get to see him.

I would have assumed that we’d be connected at the hip by this time, but two weeks have barely made a difference in our relationship. It might as well have been two days with how little I’ve seen of him.

I would like to see him more, but he’s busy. He has given me permission to go out on occasion, but only when I’m with one of his bodyguards, and I can’t be out for long. Usually, I just go to the store for snacks of feminine products, but I haven’t had my period yet, even though I should have started it a few days ago.

I’ll be worried when it’s a week. Sometimes it’s late, and since I’ve been through so much stress with being chased down by thugs and almost getting shot, I expect my body to behave a bit differently.

Still, in the back of my head, the thought of Nikolai getting me pregnant lingers. It floats there in uncertainty, like an odd-shaped egg that could hatch into anything. It’s too soon to tell how I would feel about something so drastic, but it’s also too early to assume that it ever would happen.

The risks are low, so I’m not going to make a big deal about it. I’m more concerned about the fact that I’ve been stuck inside without Nikolai, bored out of my mind, flipping through TV stations in Russian while pretending that I know what they’re talking about.

I’ve even considered learning the language since I’ve been here long enough to be used to the way it sounds, but I don’t have any books or teachers to aid me in that. Russian is not an easy language, so I doubt I’ll be able to pick it up just by listening to the fragments of conversations between the guards or on the TV. They talk too fast.

I crave some excitement, but maybe I shouldn’t. With the war raging between mafias, excitement equates to danger, and I’m trying to make it back to the United States in one piece. On the other hand, I’ll go mad if I’m stuck inside for much longer with nothing to do.

“Elaine,” a thick Russian voice calls from the doorway of the lounge.

I look over from the couch to see Slav, one of Nikolai’s henchmen, walking into the room. “Oh, hey,” I say to him, waving a hand but staying seated.

“Nikolai tells me that he thinks you’re bored,” Slav says, coming to a stop in front of me.

I laugh. “Can he read my mind?”

Slav laughs with me.
