The Billionaire Mafia’s Slave

CHAPTER 56: WHO ARE YOU?!!!

LILY’S POV:

“Why did you make my girlfriend cry?”, I heard Nikolai’s deep voice from behind and I released myself from the hug, cleaning my face with the back of my hand.

“What are you doing here?”, Mrs Vladimir asked her son, I noticed her eyes were also moist.

“To come get my girlfriend. It is late, she needs to sleep”, Nikolai said with a frown on his face, he keeps referring to me as his girlfriend when he has not officially asked me yet.

He took me by my hand and I stood up.

“Oh, I didn’t realize how late it is, I was so lost in bonding with Lily, I’m sorry dear. You can go now”, Mrs Vladimir apologized and I felt bad.

“It isn’t that late, don’t apologize”, I said.

“It is late”, Nikolai argued and I sighed, I don’t know what’s wrong with him.

“It’s not”, I whispered to him and smiled back awkwardly at Mrs Vladimir.

“You have been away from me for more than 2 hours”, Nikolai said and my cheeks got hot. I pinched his waist for him to behave, his mom is still here.

Mrs Vladimir smiled knowingly and winked at me, I was so embarrassed. I dragged Nikolai along with me.

“Good night mom”, I said and waved good bye to her.

“Good night Lily… night Nikolai. Try not to keep her up all night!”, Mrs Vladimir said and my eyes grew wide in shock, now I know where Nikolai got his brazenness from. I couldn’t get out of there faster.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

“I can’t promise that!”, Nikolai yelled back at his mom and I walked faster inside.

***

Nikolai and I were inside our room, I didn’t know how to act, everything just seemed awkward and I was super shy.

He left to go take a bath and I released a sigh I didn’t know I was holding.

The shower was turned on and I can hear splashes of water, I couldn’t help but let my imagination run wild.

I laid down on the bed and closed my eyes, I imagine Nikolai in the bathroom, taking a shower. I picture him with his eyes closed, his face tilted up towards the water, and his muscles looking strong and shiny.

He’s got a small smile on his face, like he’s thinking about something happy. I imagine the soap running down his chest, and his hair all wet and messy.

“God…”, I whispered to myself.

I can almost hear the sound of the water hitting the floor, and see the steam rising up around him. It feels like I’m right there with him, and it makes me feel happy and calm.

“No! this is wrong”, I immediately open my eyes and sat properly. I tried to calm my racing heart and throbbing lady-part.

When Nikolai steps out of the shower, I can’t help but stare. His hair is wet and messy, and steam is rising off his skin. He’s got a towel wrapped around his waist, and his muscles are gleaming with droplets of water. I feel my heart skip a beat as I take in the sight of him.

I can’t help but think about how handsome and hot he is, I feel a flutter in my chest, and my face feels warm. I want to reach out and touch him, to feel his warm skin and his wet hair.

“My eyes are up here”, He said and I quickly closed my drooling mouth, I looked away and gulped.

“I uh… Huh?”, I said and looked at his face this time, he had a smirk on his face and my cheeks burn.

“Where you checking me out just now?”, He asked and tried drying his hair with another towel which was no much help. I thought of this as my chance to touch his hair, so I offered to help him.

“Need some help with that?”, I asked. He shrugged and I quickly stood up for the bed, I had him sit in front of the dressing mirror and took out a blow dryer then I plugged it in.

“Ready?”, I asked, even more excited than him. He didn’t have to say anything, I turned on the dryer and I ran my fingers through his still damp curls.

‘Fuck! I think I just had an orgasm’.

It felt like silk and I kept running my fingers in there for a while before blow drying.

I headed for the bathroom when I was done with Nikolai’s hair. It didn’t take long before I was done, I hopped out of the shower and I was now left with how to get changed. I forgot to bring my PJs in the bathroom.

“Oh Lord”, I murmured and palmed my face. I couldn’t think of possible ways on how to sneak from the bathroom to the closet. I almost screamed when a sharp knock came on the door.

“Lily?”, Nikolai called out.

“Hm?”, I replied.

“I’m gonna leave the room for a bit so you don’t feel uncomfortable”, he said and I almost jumped up for joy. How can this man be so considerate and God sent?

“Thank you”, I told him and I heard his footsteps retreating. I sigh in happiness and listened for when he left the room and the door closes. I came out of the bathroom and got dressed.

***

It was time for bed but Nikolai wasn’t back yet, I didn’t want to step out to go look for him.

I hopped in bed and got ready for the night, ‘maybe he was busy’, I said to myself and sighed.

Just when my head hit the pillow, Nikolai came into the room and I smiled to myself. He got in bed and pulled my back close to him.

“Let’s just stay like this”, He said.

“Okay”, I responded like I wasn’t the one waiting for him to come back.

I woke up the next day and I turned to my side, scared that Nikolai wasn’t beside me but he was. Sound asleep.

I lean closer to his face and carefully studied his eyes, nose, thick brows, cheekbones, lips and crazily manly moustache. This man was carefully created by God.

I quietly came down from the bed as I was really thirsty, It was 4 in the morning. I tiptoed out of the room and went downstairs to the kitchen, I didn’t see anyone in the there.

‘Isn’t the maids supposed to be here by this time?’, I wondered, I shrugged as they didn’t woke for me.

I opened the refrigerator and took out a glass of water, poured some into a glass cup and drank.

“WHO ARE YOU?!”, I heard someone shout from behind me, I turned to the person and spat the water I was drinking on him. I gasped at the damage I have caused.

“Oh my goodness, I’m so sorry!”, I quickly apologized to the man in front of me. I have never seen him before, he wasn’t their butler. The light in the kitchen was dim so I couldn’t really see the person’s face.

“What is going on he– Oh my God! Master?!”, The head maid came in and put on the light. I looked at the person she just referred to as ‘Master’ and I almost went bonkers. He has a striking resemblance to Nikolai except he’s way older. Probably in his mid 50s or late.

My eyes and mouth were wide open.

‘I am so dead’, something was telling me this is Nikolai’s father but I don’t want to believe I just pour water from my mouth on Nikolai’s father.

“Who are you and why are you in my house? How did you get here?!”, He barked at me and I shrunk in fear. Now was the best time for Nikolai to come.

“I uh- I’m–“, I tried to find the right words but my head was blank.

“What’s all the shouting for!”, Mrs Vladimir came in the kitchen and I couldn’t be more grateful. I sighed once I saw her.

“Darling, who is this mannerless girl?”, Mr Vladimir asked his wife.

“Mannerless?… Oh, I can see you have met Nikolai’s girlfriend, Lily? Is she the one you’re referring to as mannerless?”, Mrs Vladimir introduced me to Mr Vladimir and she smiled at me.

“What do you mean by ‘Nikolai’s girlfriend’?! That can’t be!”, He denied, I couldn’t blame him, I just disrespected him and I wanted the ground to just open and swallow me.

“Dad, I am unbelievably sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose”, I tried to remedy the situation but he frowned at me when I called him ‘dad’.

“‘Dad?!’ Don’t call me that young lady! We are not that close!”, He said, pointing a finger at me.

“Father!”, Nikolai’s loud voice echoed in the kitchen, he was finally awake.

‘Thank the heavens’, I told myself.

“Nikolai”, Mr Vladimir called back.

Seeing them together, I can see the striking resemblance. I can’t help but notice how much Nikolai looks like his father. They share the same dark, piercing eyes and chiseled features that seem chiseled from granite. Their sharp jawlines and noses are identical, giving them an intimidating presence.

Even their dark hair is styled similarly, It’s like looking at two versions of the same man, one younger and more reckless, the other older and more calculating. The resemblance is uncanny, and it’s clear that Nikolai is a chip off the old block. It’s a reminder that he comes from a long line of powerful and feared men.

I can’t believe I embarrassed myself on the first time in meeting Nikolai’s father, first impressions matters and I just blew mine.

What if he hates me and tell Nikolai to end things with me? What if he shouts on me that I want to cry? What if Nikolai can’t defend me? I was so doomed.
