I woke up a bit early today, even though I was still tired, I watched Nikolai as he got dressed in his black suit. I had nothing else to do since Nikolai wouldn't let me do anything fun. I yawned then stood up and walk into the bathroom, I brushed my teeth then combed my hair into a messy bun and got dressed. I walked over to Nikolai and looked up at him.

"Where are you going?" I asked and he hesitated for a moment but answered.

"I'm going to Alice place to find out a few things about Augustine," he said and I simply smiled at him.

"Can I come?" I asked. I knew he wouldn't want me to go but it was worth a shot and if he didn't let me I would just constantly nag him.

"No Serena it's dangerous, it's best if you stay here with Adriana and pick out a wedding dress or whatever you girls do," he said and I huffed.

"Please, In fact, how are you going to get her to talk?" I asked with one eyebrow raised.

"Easy if Augustine isn't there I will torture her to tell where he is" he simply said and I groan.

"Please, she's my best friend, if you let me come I'll surprise you with something tonight" I whispered then kissed his lips which caused him to groan, pulling me closer to him.

"Ok, I'll let you come but you'll have to stay by my side," he said and I smirked. Ha, he thinks that I'm surprising him with something that has to do with sex. I went downstairs into the kitchen and took up an apple. I was about to take a bite when someone took it away from my hand. I stared at Nikolai as he took a bite and handed it back to me.

"Couldn't you just get one yourself?" I asked then took a bite as well. He shrugged and ignored my question.

"Let's go now" he mumbled, I rolled my eyes and followed behind him. We got into the car and Vladimir drove off. We were going to get married soon and I just couldn't believe what I was about to do. I never thought my life would be like this, not at all.

"What if I didn't want to marry you?" I asked suddenly, don't even know why but I did.

"It's not your decision to make if I say marry me you will," he said and it irritated me, I know he doesn't mean it but did he have to be so cocky, bastard. The car had finally stop and I got out and slammed the door shut, not caring if Nikolai got angry, he was mean.

"Serena" he warned and I rolled my eyes and stood one place waiting for him to come.

"Ok, ok I'm sorry, fatass" I mumbled the last part and he glared at me. I do like his ass though, just look at his he walks. I bit my lip then slap his ass and he turned to look at me. I sheepishly smiled at him and he shook his head.

"Why did you do that?" He asked and I shrugged "I hope when I do it, you don't complain and stop checking out my ass" he groans as he rang the doorbell. The door opened and Alice looks at Nikolai then back at me.

"What do you want Serena?" she asked and I was about to answer when Nikolai cut me off.

"We just want to ask you a couple of questions" Nikolai walked inside not caring if she told him to come in or not. I followed behind him and she closed the door.

"I will look around and then I'll get back to you," he said then went upstairs.

Is he the guy you were talking about?" She asked and I nodded "why are you guys here is it about Augustine?" I nodded once again and she sighed.

"Alice he's not a good guy he works with Jace and he doesn't love you at all"

"He does love me you just don't get it, he'll never work for Jace I tell you"

"You're blinded by love Alice trust me I've been through that," I tell her and she rolled her eyes.

"Shut up, I don't want to hear it. I won't be living here again because he's coming to get me. He said he'll marry me and we'll be together forever" yep, she's going crazy

"I'm trying to protect you, Alice! You are my best friend"

"I don't care as a matter and fact leave I don't want to see you again take your manhore and get the fuck out of my house" she cursed and I got angry

"He's not a manhore he's way better than the man you call a fucking boyfriend and maybe I don't want to see you either, here take back you necklace I don't need it anymore," I said then threw it on the couch. Tears rolling down my cheeks, why did I ever come here.

"Let's go nick!, leave her" I shouted as he came down the stairs. I was about to leave when she called my name, I turned to look at her.

"That's why Sabrina treated you this way because you're a fucking slut. Your parents never loved you no one ever did. I came along you should be grateful bitch" she spat and that was it I couldn't take her comments anymore I pulled out Nikolai's gun from his waistband I was about to shoot her but something held me back.

"Shoot me, Serena, I dare you" she laughed and I couldn't do it I've known her for a long time and I still cared for her. I just left her house in tears and I went back into the car and Vladimir drove off. I was angry yet sad, Nikolai pulled me towards his chest and sobbed into his chest. Why did she have to bring my parents into this I hate her.

"It's ok Serena" he cooed and I sighed and look at him through my wet eyelashes. "You have two best friends at home Bella and Adrian" he tried to cheer me up and I gave him a small smile.

"When you go home you'll give me my surprise and then you'll pick out your wedding dress," he said while moving his eyebrows up and down.

"You're not very good at this you know that" I sniffed and he chuckled, he kissed my forehead and caressed my cheek.

"So, why don't you give me my surprise now" he whispered into my ear making his hot breath fan on my neck when he exhales.

"What do you think your surprise is?" I asked seductively and he smirked.

"How about I show you," he said then kissed me with so much passion and dominance. This wasn't his actually even though I didn't have a surprise in the first place maybe he knew.

"Oh god" I moan as he sucked on my neck. Forgetting that Vladimir was in the car, I arched my back cushioning my front against his. Vladimir clears his throat the spoke.

"Um... boss we are here," he said and I tried moving but Nikolai growled and held me in one place.

"Nick we can do this later your mother is here" I whispered and he groans and got off me. He straightened his suit then got out of the car, he then walks over to his mother and gave her a kiss on her cheek. I came out of the car and walk up to his mother.

"Hi Mrs. Esposito," I said with a smile

"You can call me mom if you'd like. Now let's go I picked out some wedding dress for you" she smiled and I nodded and followed behind her. She went into Nikolai's room and she locked the door.

"Wouldn't want Nikolai to see?" she said then walked over to the bed. I walk followed behind her and I couldn't believe my eyes.

"Wow they are beautiful" I cooed and I didn't know which one to choose. I never thought this day would come, seriously I never thought of it. I look at all the dresses and I saw the one that I liked, it was beautiful. I took it up and went into the bathroom and tried it on. I walk over to the mirror and looked at myself I smiled the twirled in the dress.

"Come on Serena I'm not getting any younger" I heard Cathrine called. I nervously went back into the room and she gave me a heartwarming smile.

"Omg you look so gorgeous and beautiful I just don't know what to say" she cried and I chuckled and walked over to her.

"Thank you so much mom" I never thought I would say it but I had to. I never had someone to call mom and it felt so great. I heard someone knock on the door and I went back into the bathroom to take off the dress. I gave it back to her and she took up the other dresses.

"I'm going to put this somewhere where Nikolai can't see it" she mumbled then left.

"Serena, Nikolai is going to kill me," Adriana said with so much worry when she came in.

"What happened?" I asked and she sat down on the bed.

"I lost Nikolai's ring, here's yours," she said then gave it to me. " I swear I placed the rings somewhere safe but when I went back to go get it I couldn't find it" she groaned I shook my head.

"Ok don't worry we'll find it, let's go back the place where you put it" I assured her and she nodded. We went into Adrian's room and she walks over to her nightstand points it.

"I placed it right here," she said and I had to chuckle.

"That's not somewhere safe, are you sure Isabella didn't take it?" I said and she jumped like something clicked or some lightbulb came over her head.

"It must be Bella," she said then snap her fingers and walked out of the room. I followed her into Isabella's room and she was playing with her teapots.

"Bella, did you take up a ring that was in my room?" Adrian asked hoping that she would say yes. Bella looks up at her and smiled.

"Hmmm... I don't know what you are tawking about" she said while tapping her chin and looking up into space.

"Please I'll do anything you want for the day" she begged and Bell walked up to her.

"Deal," she said with a serious look.

"Deal," Adriana said then gave Bella handshake. "You'll have to pway with me all day" she assured her and Adriana nodded.

"Yeah, yeah just show me the ring" Adriana whispered.

"There it is, your finger," she said while pointing at her finger my head snaps toward Adriana's finger and there it was all along. She sighed and handed the ring to me.

"Oh yeah I, forgot that I had it on, come on Serena let's go" Adriana was about to leave when be Bella stopped her.

"Wait a min it, not so fast you have to pway with me," she said and I giggled. Adriana let out a frustrated groan.

"That doesn't count Bella its not like you had it," Adriana said and Bella began to scream.

"I don't care we had a deal now let's pway!" She said with so much anger and Adriana look back at me and mouthed 'help' but I waved to her and left the room.

I walked down the hall to Nikolai's room then opened the door. As soon as I stepped inside he pushed me up against the wall then wrapped his hand around my throat, pressing his body into mine. "You told Alice every thing about us?" He asked and I looked up at him.

"Yea" I simply said and his eyes darkened.

"You broke the omertá" Nikolai said in his deep voice.

"The What?" I asked in confusion and his jaw clenched and unclenched.

"Italian code of silence and code of honor and conduct that places importance on silence in the face of questioning by authorities or outsiders." He paused "You broke it by telling your little friend" he told me and I gulped, not knowing what he was about to do. "It's an oath not to tell anyone anything. I told you about it already and he broke it" he stared me dead in the eyes, which made me a little scared.

"I'm sorry" I told him and he buried his head into my neck.

"You are a very naughty girl, if it were anyone else I would've killed them but I'm going to punish you, no sex just punishment" he said then nibbled on my ear. Oh god this is not going to go well for me.
