CHAPTER 16

Vasily

Seeing Gigi in that dress and those heels was enough to drive me crazy. I try to be a thoughtful, rational, respectful person because that is what my parents taught me, but Galina Gusev makes me feel anything other. In fact, she makes me want to do a great number of things that are neither rational nor respectful.

When I receive her texts, time freezes. I type about thirty responses, thirty reasons to say no, to deny my feelings. But when it comes down to it, I miss her, too. I miss the somewhat innocent way she continues to look at the world. I miss her curiosity. I miss her beauty and her body. Like a levee breaking, I find myself assaulted by the truth. I thought I could walk away and let her go, but I cannot. Galina Gusev, for better or worse, is mine.

I ask her to text me the address of the club. I look it up and realize it is a Russian-owned establishment. My stomach sinks, but then I remember the shame I felt after being taken down without much of a fight by Gigi’s bodyguards. I will not be a coward.

Pulling on a t-shirt, jeans, and boots, I head toward the door, opting to grab my favorite, worn Capitals hat. I pull it low over my eyes and head to my car.

Twenty minutes later, I pull into the parking lot and text Gigi, who is already waiting at the door. She pulls me inside and the bouncer barely gives me a sideways glance. I see Alexei at the bar, halfway to drunk and flirting with some blonde-haired woman.

“I have never seen you so casual, apart from your workout clothing,” she says, looking me up and down before reaching out to flick the bill of my hat. “You look like a college student. It is very sexy.”

“Are you drunk?” I ask. “How much have you had to drink tonight?”

“Oh, not much,” she says, grinning.

“But not none,” I say, eyebrow raised.

Gigi giggles and pinches her fingers together, a tiny sliver of space between them. “Only a little.”

I cannot help grinning. She seems freer than I have ever seen her.

“I learned to dance not like ballet tonight!” she says, grabbing my hand and pulling me to the crowded dance floor. We wind out into the crowd, and I glance over my shoulder to assure that Alexei isn’t watching us. He isn’t.

I have to admit, I am not much of a dancer. It’s not that I can’t dance, only that crowded bars have never been my thing. Still, as Gigi pulls me far into a gyrating crowd, she is all I can see. She is the best thing I have seen in weeks.

We move to the beat, my hands on her hips, pulling her close. We could be alone, for all I know, and my cock grows hard at her proximity. She turns around, her back to my front as she slinks her body up and down. My hands move to encircle her, one on her breast, one between her legs.
