CHAPTER NINE: GOD DAMN IT

THEO POV


We all looked towards the door.


-"Viktoria! Come here and comfort me" Tyler said happily.


-"So your name is Viktoria!" Rei said surprised.


-"What are you doing in my house? Have you forgotten what you did to my hybrid?" I said faking an angry face.


-"Sorry Theo, I took your care but gave you my best friend" she said with a rised eyebrow.


-"Your best friend?" I asked.


-"That should be my sister" Dimitri said from the sofa.


-"That brings memories" I said with surprise.


-"Okay! I have some questions, sit down everybody because we need to clear things" Rei said.


-"What's going on here?" Came Abel's sleepy voice.


-"Abel, go freshen up and come here we are discussing serious matters" I said and watched him walk back to his room.


-"Let's start with the guard that you shouted yesterday" he looked at her.


-"Guess you found out he is innocent?" She said mockingly.


-"You knew?" He asked angrily.


-"Of course I knew that he would fool you!" She said calmly.


-"What?!" Rei asked surprised.


-"What's going on here?" Abel said while taking a seat on the couch.


-"Rei got fooled" Tyler said and Abel looked surprised.


-"It's not true" Rei said angrily.


-"Okay then, call the squad" she dared him.


-"Okay" Rei answered.


He took his phone and dialed a number, put it to his phone and greeted the person from the other side, and looked at her challenging.


-"Tell him to put it on speakers and take it to the guard" she said.


Rei said some instructions to the phone then nodded to her.


-"Give me your phone after putting it on speakers too" she requested.


Rei put it on speakers and handed it to her.


We all observed her take the phone to her lips and whispered coldly:


-"Fiston, le bonhomme de sept heure te passe le bonjour, il te dit que tu étais un mauvais garçon, le châtiment t'attends" she handed the phone back but not before we heard a scream, and a fit of words screamed and rushed like someone was going mad.


-"Jeff! What's going on?" Rei asked alarmed.


-"He is screaming and asking for forgiveness! He even confessed that he lied to you boss, and he wants to confess, he won't stop screaming!" Came the voice from the other side of the line.


-"Tell him to lock him and let him wait" she said with a little smile.


Rei did as asked and hanged off.


-"What did you do?" Rei asked suspiciously.


-"Nothing big, he is a naughty French boy that needed some slap to his booty." She said while standing up.


-"Who are you really?" Rei asked.


-"They are the kids of Vladimir" Viktoria said, and the blood drained from Rei's face.


-"Vladimir? You mean The Boogeyman?" Rei asked and Viktoria nodded.


-"Is he that popular?" I asked curiously.


-"If he is that popular? He is the most Popular Russian Assassin of all time, most people think that he is a myth!" Rei went on.


-"Really?" Tyler said excited.


-"But, why is the boy young? Vladimir got a unique son who is about thirty years old or more, named after an angel, they said that the son was like a messenger, delivering his father's words in form of threats, and he goes by the name-" Rei went on.


-"Gabriel" She said and we all looked at her.


-"You got an older brother?" Rei asked.


-"She is Gabriel" Dimitri said calmly.


The living room went silent.


-"You are that much older?" I asked surprised.


-"Last I checked, I am 25 years old the same as Viktoria...add a few months" she said annoyed.


-"How come-"Rei went on


-"Rumors" Viktoria said.


We went all silent coping with the heavy news.


-"I have some important things to show you guys, so let's go to my house" she said.


-"Wait! I need to change my clothes" I said.


-"Me too" Tyler said.


We rushed to my room to change, and when we came back, we only found her.


-"Where are the others?" I asked surprised.


-"They went first, let's go" she said.


I exited the flat with both of them, I closed the door with the keys, and started to head to the elevator when I spotted her by the other door in the hallway across from mine.


-"You know the neighbors?" I asked curiously as she knocked once.


But then, the door opened and there was Dimitri.


-"Welcome to our humble demeure" Dimitri said sarcastically.


Tyler clapped his hands together and went to step in when he swayed a bit so I grabbed his arm.


-"Dude! You okay?" I asked worriedly.


-"No! I'm fine, just lack of sleep." He said and walked in.


We entered to a fabulous decor.


-"Wow! Beautiful house you got here" I said smiling.


-"All thanks to Viktoria" she said with a smile and we walked to the living room.


-"Let's go to my room" Dimitri surprised us all as he tugged Tyler by the hem of his sweater.


We observed them disappear into a room and watched the door close.


-"Is it true that you haven't slept yet" Viktoria asked seriously.


-"Well, we went in a ride, but the motorcycle broke on us and say we were out of town...so! But it's all his fault!" I said in defense.


-"Well then you have to rest, we are not risking another one fainting from exhaustion" she said and they looked at Rei.


-"No comment!" He said with raised hands in defense.


-"Let's go visit my room Theo" she said and took my hand to guide me.


REI POV


-"Go join the squad Abel, Rei is going to rest too" Viktoria said.


-"Am I?" I asked surprised.


-"Yes you are! And while you are at it, change the place of the guard, don't forget to cover his eyes and put him to sleep before taking him out of the quarter, I smell danger in the way" Viktoria said.


I asked Franc to pass take Abel and my baby sister, and gave them instructions to follow until I return.


-"So?" I looked at Viktoria after Abel left and we were alone in the living room.


-"Let's give you something to eat first then put you to sleep" she said walking to the kitchen.


I followed her, and she heated something in the microwave and put it in front of me on the counter.


-"Pizza? Really?" I said surprised.


-"I don't cook and you can laugh as much as you want" she said lazily and went to the fridge and returned with a water bottle and put it in front of me.


-"No! Really! I appreciate! I love pizza" I said and started eating.


After finishing, she invited me to her room, finally, because I was sent to Dimitri's room before.


-"Beautiful room!" I said while looking at everything.


She turned to look at me but I stepped on something and slipped, bringing her down with me.


I fell on her bed, she, on top of me.


-"Ow! Rei!" She started to lift herself.


We ended up in an embarrassing position, me sprawled on the bed, and she was on top of me straddling my lap.


She struggled and went to move, but my hands moved on their own and grasped her thighs and she stilled for a moment, I watched her looking at my lifted sweater, and her hand traced my side.


We were so lost that we didn't know how it happened, but my sweater was by my chest, and her hands were tracing my muscled chest, I closed my eyes and relaxed, but then, my breath hitched when I felt soft cold fingers tracing the scar on my side, I felt a shiver run up my spine.


I let my hand caress her back gently and brought her up to me, I opened my eyes halfway to find her looking at me with a strange look, a mix of adoration and something soothing, I let my hand travel to her hair, she closed her eyes and hummed, I don't know who leaned first, but our lips were about to brush lightly...


-"Viktoria" A serious tone snapped us from the daze we were in.


Viktoria jumped from on top of me and off the bed, I was so surprised that I stayed sprawled on the bed in daze.


-"Dimitri?" She said while her breath wavered a bit and she coughed to hide it.


-"Where is my Pizza?" He asked annoyed.


-"You can order a new one, why you bothering me?" She asked annoyed.


-"Don't have money" he said with a poker face.


She sighed and went to her purse, searched inside and gave him a pack of cash.


-"Is that enough?" She said.


-"Thanks Vee" he said calmly, gave her a light hug and disappeared out of the room.


-"GOD DAMN IT" She said and sighed.


I laughed and closed my eyes to a soothing sleep.
