Yves is punching his bodyguards in anger. They just let Viktor left the country like that. He's going to Russia and they can't bomb Russia. It's their country. Adrian massaged the point between his brows and then he let out a sigh.

"I need to fly to Russia." He muttered.

​​

"There's no point. They are aiming the guns to us. If we leave at this instant, we might not be able to arrive there alive and come back alive."

"What's our next step then?" Yves asked.

"We need to Launch our First bomb." He grinned at him. "I am getting excited here."

"You are fucking insane?" Yves laughed. "I love the idea."

"We are targeting that plane." Adrian pointed to the plane.

"Now?" Yves asked.

"Don't you think I don't have a second step?"

****

Viktor had settled on the private plane safely and comfortably. He knew the next plan for Adrian.

"I think we should go for sky diving?"

He froze and he stood and searched for that voice. Sarah is sitting comfortably wearing a suit and glasses.

"What are you doing here?" Viktor immediately strode toward her. "You knew that they are going to bomb my plane!"

Sarah looked at him innocently.

"I am here for sky diving." She said and pointed the bag of her parachute.

"You are insane?" Viktor hauled her arm up, pulling her small back and invade her mouth with his. He kissed her torridly and she started restraining from him. However, he's strong enough to get what he wanted. He let go of her mouth and her lips are already swollen from his kiss.

She slapped him hard and wiped her lips.

"Well, at least I got to kiss you before we die." He scooped her face and kiss her again. She held on his chest and kissed back.

Breathless, she held on him to avoid tripping or falling. Viktor grinned at her and caressed her hair.

"Let's go for skydiving?" She asked.

"Sure."

*****

They already landed on the ground with the crew and the pilot of the plane before it exploded in the air. Soon, Viktor's face would be in the news for his death. But as soon as the plane exploded, they had a chopper to send them to Lawson Private Landing and Departure. They fly to Russia safely.

Viktor never let go of her hand as they arrived at the house. Since his father already spoke with the crew of their house, they greet him warmly. Sarah looked around the castle with a different type of roses on every corner and the maze garden.

The guards escorted them to his room and since they have the Phoenix Guards and Knight assassins lingering around, no one ever tried to kill them.

"You are staying with me in my bedroom?" He asked while their security is checking everything for a possible attack. Like a bobby trap or something.

"Don't you have a guest room?" She asked and looked around.

"We do have that, but I wanted to protect you. I could protect you a-hundred and one percent if you are close to me."

"We aren't lovers."

"But did you just—" He frowned at her.

"Lady Sarah, there's nothing else here. We will run for lasers if ever there are secret cameras here." The Captain said. She nodded.

Adrian and Yves are popping champagnes with Andromeda. Viktor is dead and Yves's father doesn't have a choice but to put him as the successor. Andy is laughing with them as they celebrate with women. Her phone kept on ringing and Adrian told her not to answer it. But it's Zachary and he already detected on where she is.

"I didn't know that Zachary would put the tracker on me," Andy said like she's panicking. "If he knew that I kept meeting with you guys, then he might think that I wasn't his wife." She walked back and forth. "He can't find out that I am not Andromeda!" She said panicking.

"Hey," Adrian reached her hand. "It will be fine. Just act like Andromeda and we will only have a videoconference. How about that?"

Andy acted like a Drama Queen that Allona would do. She exhaled and calmed herself.

"I should leave." She said quickly. "I can't lose Zachary."

"Okay." Adrian nodded. Her phone started ringing and it's Zachary. Then a man entered and whispered to Adrian's ear.

"Zachary is on the lodge," Adrian told her. She quickly took her purse and use the elevator.

Zachary is standing with his hands at his back. His eyes are fierce. Once that he saw her, he immediately grabbed her arm and dragged her outside. The car is waiting outside, and he pushed her inside. Zachary closed the partition between them and the driver.

Andy grinned at him and straddle over him.

"Nice work, love." She murmured and kissed his lips. He caressed her back and smirked at her. "Do you want to play Mistress tonight?"

"Why not?" He kissed her cheeks and hugged her. She rested on his chest as they travel back to their house. In their house, Fiona is waiting with Zendaya and the dogs.

"Mama!" Zendaya giggled and wiggle excitedly. "Papa!"

"Hey," Andy sanitized her hand and reached Zendaya who is walking slowly toward them. Andy knelt one knee and reached Zendy. "Yehay!"

Zendy clapped her hands and she reached her mother's face and kissed her lips.

"Your dad will be here soon." Fiona checked her phone.

"We need him because there will be a major problem," Andy said.

"What major problem?" Fiona asked.

"The Eagle Empire's First World Plan is going to launch anytime. Let's discuss it over dinner."

Andy took a shower with her husband while Zendy is with her grandmother. They play Mistress while in the shower. It relieves her stress and her husband is taking care of her and pampering her too much. She dressed up for their dinner meeting and also with baby Zendy.

Viktor put a long silver needle on their drinks and once that he made sure that there's no poison on it, he sipped on his wine.

"So, your brother didn't know that you are already home?" Sarah asked as she sipped on her wine.

"No. Somehow, the security around has been controlled by the Dragon Empire, I assume. And they couldn't connect the call to Yves. I found it odd that they had controlled everything around here."

Sarah smirked.

"You never know. But the Dragon Empire has the best hackers in the world." Sarah said. Viktor finished slicing the steak using a silver fork and knife and then they exchange plates.

"What's the next step?" Viktor asked as he sliced the beef tenderloin.

"Meeting up with the boards tomorrow. Before your brother know that you are alive, we should be holding a conference and take over the company."

"How did you managed to come here?" He asked and reached her hand.

"Stop being romantic Viktor. We are here for work. I am doing this from my grandfather's orders."

He caressed her knuckles.

"Sure."

After their dinner, they retire to his room. He took a shower first. She installed a secret camera on the shelves facing the bed while he's in the bathroom. Then she put a few of her clothes on the space that he provided for her. She wanted to sleep in the guestroom, but she wasn't safe anywhere.

Although she's disguised as his lover and not part of an empire, she needed to be watchful. Besides, the Phoenix army is protecting her. Her brother-in-law is protecting her.

Once that Viktor is done, she finished organizing her things and she went to the bathroom. She didn't take long after she brushed her teeth, she approached the bed and put a partition between them.

"Don't you want to make love with me?" Viktor asked and lean on the pillows.

"No." She pulled her duvet over her shoulder and turned back from him.

"Are we officially together?"

"No."

"But we just kissed."

"You did that because you thought that it was the end of the world."

He reached her head.

"Marry me."

"That's a quick proposal." She murmured.

"I'll take care of you. I'll make you my queen."

"Nah, I am fine." She yawned and hugged the pillow that she's holding.

"I am serious." He threw the pillows away and he adjusted close to her. "It's cold, can I just cuddle you?"

She didn't respond and when he peeked at her, she's already sleeping. He hugged her and kissed her forehead.

He couldn't sleep the whole night. He's busy roaming his eyes around just to make sure that no one would kill them while they are sleeping. He kept a gun close to him just in case. Although his brother did not know that they are already in Russia in a short time, there are still people that are loyal to him.

Sarah turned to him and snuggled to his chest. He looked down at her. She must be comfortable. Seeing her makes him aroused but though he's aching a lot. He wanted to see her sleeping peacefully. Thinking that he might not see it for long.

War is coming.
