Chapter Nine

Dominik Kozlov

I take another pull of my cigarette before blowing the smoke into the night air. The need to get away from here to relieve my aching tension, coupled with the need to touch her, is unbearable. It feels like my heart is in a fucking vise.

Not something I’m used to feeling.

Not at all.

Knowing she would be here today cemented my decision to accept the invitation. I’d also taken measures to make sure I could sit as close as possible without being too obvious of my intentions.

I have to bide my time. In what feels like a lifetime of waiting, I will soon have every piece in position to take what I want.

Her.

Taking another drag, I cast my eyes over the grounds; this has to be the most elaborate, ridiculous wedding I’ve been to in my entire life, and I’m Russian, so I’ve been to some pretty hyped-up weddings.

The younger O’Connell brother sure as hell meant what he said about making a statement.

A flash of her long golden hair catches my eye as she heads toward the tiger cage. I glance back in the direction she came from, expecting her bodyguard to follow her. But instead, there’s a server who was practically drooling over her when he placed her meal in front of her. So much so, I bent the fork in my hand, causing the silver to cut into my meaty palm.

I hadn’t felt a damn thing until my right-hand man, Dimitri, pointed out I was dripping blood onto the glass table.

The server scurries after her in the shadows, causing my spine to straighten with awareness. I push off the wall and follow behind, my body on alert at the sneaky shit’s intentions.

I hang back around the corner of the cage, watching through the bars, listening in from a safe distance. My hand twitches to take out my knife and cut up the sly little prick who dared to follow her.

Anna is standing with her back to the fucker, so she doesn’t see him approach. I watch his every move.

“Sooo, do you wann to have some ffun?” The punk’s voice is slurred, like he’s on something.

My hands curl around the bars, stopping me from going further and tearing him apart for even daring to speak to her. Part of me is desperate to remove him from the picture, yet another part is intrigued as to what the Mafia Princess thinks of this punk. Is this the kind of guy she’s into? A sliver of jealousy racks through me. Yet again, another new emotion when it comes to her.

Her spine straightens at his words, but the prick misses her body language and pushes further. “I asked you a question, sweetheart.”

She turns to face him, and the pain of seeing her turn toward him and not me makes my heart skip a beat, and my body trembles with a need to pull her into me. Force her to look at me, not him.

“Don’t act all shy. I saw you checking me out.
