The door opened, revealing the figures of Igor, Maxim and Alexander and Dominick Ivanov entering the room.
Alessio looked at them not like it. Hugging Lyra's waist possessively.
"aww.. Romanovs. You haven't even introduced your woman to us. We can't start the party if we don't know each other". Dominick. Blinking one eye at Lyra who was hugging Alessio was getting tighter.
Of the five, Dominick is the most famous womanizer. This man changed women as easily as he changed clothes, not counting how many women have been victims.
"Already, Ivanov. He doesn't want to meet you". Alessio frowned while hugging Lyra even tighter.
"Hello, lassie. By the way, I'm Dominick Ivanov. Has been watching you for quite a while now, but Lord, you look even more amazing up close," she grinned at him, completely ignoring the murderous gaze from Alessio.
Lyra just buried her face in the d*da Alessio like a frightened child. They all seem very intimidating.
"He's afraid of you, Ivanov. Have fun with the wild girls out there". One of them sniggered.
"Silence Vasiliev, don't equate me with you and your boyfriend Volkov. And besides, I also like it when my women are scared of me". Dominick grinning. Her eyes explored Lyra's obvious curves behind her satin evening dress.
"Oh my God, she's so fit. Nice catch there, Romanov".
Alessio did not say anything, but Lyra jumped as soon as the man pulled out something behind his pants pocket that turned out to be a gun. Alessio pointed the gun at Dominick Ivanov.
"Geez... No need to be so cynical. I just enjoy the beautiful view here". Dominick grimaced raising his hand a sign of surrender. He knew full well the consequences he would receive if it provoked Alessio's emotions.
Alessio then took off the suit he was wearing, then put it on Lyra. Because the body is bigger, then automatically the suit looks great on his tiny body.
"Why are you all here?". Ask Alessio.
Igor Volkov stared fixedly at the room, "Because we're going to let the old man finish their business".
Then they talked to each other. Lyra observed one by one of them. Everything looks scary and intimidating. Then his gaze focused on a blond man who was leaning in the corner of the room —sari earlier the man did not speak a word. His face was passive.
But the thing that is harassing is when the man continues to stare fixedly at him.
Lyra hid her red face. I don't know why the man's gaze made him feel strange. Why is he staring at her so much
"Hey, baby. You okay?". Tanya Alessio broke her reverie.
"I'm okay"
"How's Romanov? You need to check it out now". Caesar Maxim.
Alessio nibbled at his ear. "I can't leave Lyra here".
Lyra touched Alessio's arm gently, "it's okay, Alessio. I'm not going anywhere" . His word.
Alessio was skeptical. Looking worried at Lyra, "No, princess. Your mood has just deteriorated".
Lyra smiled gently, A smile that always managed to make Alessio's heart beat harder because of it. "It's okay. I've been better, believe me". Convince.
The man took a deep breath and then stroked his golden brown mane. "You sure?". The question ensured a nod answered by Lyra.
"alright. But wait here, I'll call someone to take care of you".
"no need. I'll accompany him here". Lyra turned to the blond man who was staring at her.
Alessio looked at him in disbelief. "You? Why do you want to be here?".
"Because I'm lazy to dirty my hands". Tidbits lightly. The whole room was silent. Lyra asks if Alessio will allow it or not.
Then the man turned and looked at him, "Baby, are you here with Alexander? it's okay to refuse. I'll send someone with you".
"It's okay Alessio". The answer.
Alessio smiles —smiles that do not reach his eyes and tend to be forced. "alright. Stay here, I'll be back in a minute".
Nodding Lyra's approval, the man gives her a final kiss and then hints Dominick, Igor and Maxim out to follow him.
Alexander did not answer. Lyra thought she would ignore it. But the man walked over and placed himself next to Lyra.
The situation is back in silence. Lyra could feel the man's gaze fixed on her behind the tip of her eye.
"What's your name?". Lyra snoring. Stare at Alexander and find the man still staring at him intensely.
"Hmmm.... I'm Lyra Estrella. Did Alessio never tell you about me"
It took Alexander a long time to answer. "No. He kept his personal life to himself"
Lyra muttered "Hum" to say yes. Finally, he dared to ask.
"Have you known me for a long time?"
"Me and Alessio, we've met since the age of five. But I don't know for sure for Igor, Maxim and Dominick"
Lyra processed that information. If you think about it, he does not know about the man's personal life. Especially about their organization.
"Hey, I want to ask if you're —"
Alexander had not finished his sentence. Alessio came in first. The man immediately took his place between Lyra and Alexander.
Lyra also wrestled spoiled in the arms of Alessio. He leaned back his body that was beginning to feel sleepy on the man.
"You're tired, baby. Want to sleep now?"
I don't know, but he felt more tired than usual. Finally he agreed to Alessio's words.
Alessio held him in front like a koala. Say goodbye to your guests.
"How do you know the basement, princess?"
"I don't know. Just following Aleksei earlier". Answer innocently. Alessio chuckles.
"Olderoy.... Who exactly was that?".
Alessio was silent for a moment. Wait until he finishes his steps up the stairs.
"They're Bratva's top brass?"
"Brat-vawh?"
Alessio kissed his temple. "No dear. Bratva. They are a Russian Mafia. Have you never heard of it?"
"No.. My daddy never told me about this"
[ Translate : No. My father never told me about this ]
"In short. All of those mafia syndicates are organized in the Bratva. We're some kind of brotherhood group. So if one of them needs help we can help him and vice versa. One Bratva problem became all of us"
"What are you guys doing, the mafia?"
"We have our own efforts. There may be many illegal jobs like selling guns and others, including owning bars and casinos. But we also sometimes lead normal companies. The one you saw, they were The Heir. The heirs"
"oh, then do you have a leader?"
"Of course princess.each group needs a leader to keep going"
"Who is he?"
"We. The Romanovs"
