Her Volkovs #Book 4

Chapter 25

Belle's POV

Rise above the situation Belle. You are Volkov's wife---the most powerful man in the Conglomerate.

You have come this far. Don't let this desperate inebriated woman ruin your night.

"Millie, you look like you're done for the night. I am sure your husband would be delighted to remove his

disgraceful wife from the table." I said as calmly as I can even though my heart is already pounding

inside my ribcage.

One of their people is trying to talk her out of the Conglomerate wives table. She downed another glass

of wine before leaving begrudgingly. Apparently, she's widowed and is suffering from severe

depression. Her stepson approached me to apologize immediately and to Nikolai who did not even let

the man explain to him. He did not even reach my husband because he was instantly blocked by Boris.

It was made clear to them that my husband was not having it.

I feel like because of my appearance in this meeting the Russian Mafia will have to deal with mob wars

when we get home. I am a hundred percent sure that Nikolai and Alexei will not let this one slide.

Victoria cleared her throat and then continued with a smile on her face like nothing happened. "Well, ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

that was intense. Shall we continue?" She said casually.

Wow this bitch.

"No, we shall not." I answered, still calmly.

"Excuse me?" She retorts back.

"Did I stutter?" I exclaimed, looking at her straight in the eye.

She scoffed like she can't believe what I just said. The wives who are in cohort with her had the same

expression on their faces.

"Hand over the bell and leave the table at once Victoria." I said, still as calmly as I can. This time,

people from outside the velvet rope are now chattering, most have the look of disbelief on their faces.

For some twisted reason, I can sense fear in Victoria's eyes. I feel like my dark soul is feasting over her

reaction. I got you bitch.

"Who died and made you Queen of the Conglomerate?" Victoria replied in an attempt to insult my

boldness.

If only she knows I am way beyond mad right now to even get insulted with such pettiness. I am now

protecting my honor and my husbands' honor. We are the Volkov family for a reason. It's time to do my

part as Nikolai and Alexei's wife.

"Fine then. Suit yourself Victoria." I signaled one of the servers and asked her to deliver a message to

Boris of the Russian Mafia.

When they got my message, Boris the not so gentle giant obliged without hesitation. He handed the

server Nikolai's phone, just like what I instructed and had my husband input the number of the person

left in charge of the Russian Mafia back in New York.

I then looked at Nikolai and Alexei who has now a 'daddies are proud of you little girl' look on their

faces. I just winked at them before focusing back my attention on Victoria.

After just two rings the person answered. However, Victoria was about to speak again so I pointed my

index finger towards her direction to shush her because I do not appreciate her interrupting me while I

make a phone call to destroy her and her whole family to the ground.

"This is Mrs. Volkov. Listen. Starting this very second, the German mob is considered an enemy of the

Russian Mafia. All friendly relations and business dealings with them, domestic or otherwise are

dissolved. Encounter with them will now be considered hostile and as such proceed to exterminate

without need of prior order from your Bosses. Alert all men after this call. Understand?"

The look of shock is now plastered on the faces of the people around including those outside the velvet

rope. People from the German mafia are now on their phones, scampering to inform their people about

the mob war. Victoria's eyes widened while her minions jaws dropped in full and utter disbelief.

"You can't do that!" Exclaimed Victoria who still looks dumbstricken.

"I just did." I replied, feeling this undeniable rush inside my ribcage. Yep. I told you I can make your life

miserable in the Conglomerate.

"The affairs of the Conglomerate wives are different from the affairs of the Bosses table! This is

preposterous!" She continued, standing up from her seat smashing both of her hands on the table

while looking at me angrily.

"Next time Victoria, make sure you come prepared when you attack anyone from the Russian Mafia.

You see, one thing I have learned from my husband is that Volkov always wins. And I am Mrs. Volkov. I

will always win."

I stood up from my seat and walked around the table.

When I reached Victoria's side of the table, I took the bell dramatically slow so that I can give her time

to protest so I can take her down again.

As expected, she held on to the bell tightly while looking at me intensely. She went too close to me for

a stand off.

"You will regret doing this to me ---you immoral prostitute! There are other forces coming for you and

Volkov. I cannot wait for that day to come. You and your deranged family will fall to the ground." She

said just loud enough for me to hear her.

I just chuckled at her response. Who does she think she's threatening right now? The rush inside my

ribcage makes it so hard for me to suppress the evil laugh that is threatening to burst out of my mouth.

So this is what it feels like to be a Volkov and to have Nikolai's name as my protection. I feel invincible!

There's no limit to what I can do. Wow! This is power and it's all within my reach.

I then forcefully grabbed the bell from her hand, "Do svidániya, bitch!"

Victoria is now fuming in anger. Her chest is heaving and her eyes are intensely looking at me like

she's gonna pound at me anytime.

I turn my back on her, sat back on my throne, and rang the bell thrice before speaking just to make

sure I have everyone's full and undivided attention.

"Now, who's next?"

I looked at the other wives at the table whom I identified as Victoria's allies. One by one, they folded

like scared rats, trying so hard not to make eye contact with me.

-

All the big bosses of the different crime families of the conglomerate gathered in an emergency

meeting due to the unexpected turn of events. And I mean, the one where I literally waged a mob war

singlehandedly against the German mob. The one thing I first begged my husband not to do.

Nevertheless, I do not regret it a single bit. I feel like, I had to do it, lest the Conglomerate sees a weak

Volkov. And weak is definitely not the word to describe a Volkov.

I'm sitting on the sofa by myself surrounded by our men including Boris and Dimitri. Alexei and Yuri are

inside the meeting room with Nikolai. All the other members of the other crime families are now waiting

for the Bosses to come out of the room.

The party has already started but the tension and excitement can actually be felt lingering in the air.

Amy and the people of the Albanian mob are just looking at me from a distance since Nikolai instructed

Boris and Dimi not to let anyone come near me for my own protection.

Strikes of pain hit my abdomen all of a sudden. I press my abdomen tightly just to ease the pain but it

feels like it's just worsening. My little ones, what's happening? Don't do this to mum, please. Daddies

need mum right now.

"Hey baby Madame, you okay?" Dimitri sat beside me noticing my predicament. "You need to rest

baby. Sit still, the Boss should know about this."

"No Dimi I'm okay!" I grabbed him by his arm because the man is so determined to go inside to tell

Nikolai. "After this, I just need to rest. Nikolai and Alexei need me beside them right now."

He looks me straight in the eye, looking all serious and worried. He then took a deep breath and sighed

in defeat. "The Boss and the underboss have it all. They have found their ride or die."

I palmed his right cheek and pushed it lightly which made him look to the side with a naughty smile on

his face.

"I understand why Yuri and the Albanian risked it all just to get the forbidden fruit. You are deadly yet

worth every breath baby Madame."

"Dimitri you are being weird."

"Not as weird as the three of you though. You're like three crazy people perfectly matched for each

other." He said without mincing his words.

"I'm telling Nikolai and Alexei." I retorted jokingly.

"Hey! Not good."'

I just shook my head at him.

"Seriously Madame, I'm telling the Boss about this if you don't tell them yourself about what you're

feeling in there," Dimitri said while pointing at my abdomen.

I was about to respond but then the door of the main room suddenly opened wide. The Boss and some

other men of the German mob went out looking all serious. They walked past everyone without saying

a single word. Their boss then signaled everyone from the German mob to go.

Yup. That could not be good. Yikes Belle, what did you do?

Next that went out of the room are my husbands, Axel De Alba and Artan.

Axel gathered the attention of everyone and announced that the party for the night is going to resume.

Everyone cheered and the band continued to play.

Nikolai and Alexei went past the people around them and went directly beside me, sandwiching me in

between them.

I held on to Alexei's hand who is now whispering something in Dimitri's ear. His fingers intertwined with

mine even though his attention is somewhere else. I know he's still upset with me. Getting jealous of

Axel is completely ridiculous. This man just doesn't know how much I love him.
