Page 228 of Bratva Jewels Box Set
I’m about to wring his neck, but Dmitri beats me to it.
He grabs Igor’s shirt. “Don’t you ever talk about my jewel like that,ever.”
Igor looks shocked and splutters his apologies.
I’m surprised at Dmitri’s outburst, but I’m also a tiny bit thankful.
“These women are ours to do with as we see fit. If you want a common whore to fuck, there are plenty here tonight. I would be happy to find one for you.”
Igor looks at me then back to Dmitri. “Thank you, that would please me.”
“Perfect, now could you please leave Maxim and me for a moment? We have business to discuss.”
The men jump out of their chairs and scurry off into the night.
“Fucking cunts,” Dmitri says as he takes Grace’s seat beside me, swirling the vodka in his glass. “It’s been too long. Looks like you and Diamond are getting along well.”
“Yes, she knows her place,” I say through gritted teeth.
Dmitri studies me. “She’s hard to resist, so I guess I shouldn’t be shocked that you’ve had her. She’s a bit of a wild one, isn’t she?” He chuckles.
I need to get myself under control before I start acting like a jealous fiancé´ instead of a fearsome assassin.
“I like the challenge,” I say, finishing off my whiskey. The amber liquor tastes bitter as I discuss Grace with him.
Dmitri slaps me on the back as if we are old friends. “We have more in common than I thought.”
I want to break every single bone in his body. I want to string him up and drain every drop of blood from him, but instead, I joke with him as if we are friends.
“I’m surprised you walked in with a jewel yourself.”
“I’ve told you I’ve been working hard, trying to find the jewels.” He grins.
“You two look close.”
He chuckles to himself. “I could say the same about you and Diamond.”
“I guess I had the right skills to tame her.”
“The same could be said about Emerald and me.”
Fucking liar, I want to scream, but I hold it in.
“So, was Diamond serious about what she said before?”
“What?” I try to pretend like I have forgotten.
“About the four of us taking this party somewhere else.”
Don’t kill him, don’t kill him.
“I think that’s something that could be arranged. I’m surprised Diamond mentioned it.”
“She’s a good girl. She saw the way you were looking at Emerald, and she realizes you want a taste of her. That was her way of letting you know it would be okay.”
I want to laugh. Dmitri really thinks I want Elena for a one-night stand. I think he would be very shocked if he knew the true reasons for my interest.
“Also, Diamond and I ...” He hesitates. “We had something together for a while, it was ...”
