Kindle Notes & Highlights
Konstantin actually hugs me. The cheesy fucking asshole, I swear. I pat his back. Only for show. Nothing else. Absolutely nothing. I don’t even remember the last time I hugged this little shit. Probably when we were kids. He still gives clingy hugs. He hugs like a girl. Just saying. Once this whole thing is over, I’ll be Pakhan and I’ll go to celebrate with my woman. No, my wife.
God forbid anyone speak ill of any woman in front of Rai. She’ll skin them alive and wear it as fur.
The world has always been monotone to me—either black or gray. The only person who introduced me to a fucking rainbow of colors has now turned black. She’s now being ripped out of my heart and leaving a bottomless pit in her wake. Everything has turned to ashes. All I can do is glare at the sky, feel moisture filling my eyes, and let out a raw scream.
My wife loved this cheesy shit. She loved hugging me and trying to comfort me. She also loved singing and kissing. But then she left and took away her hugs, her smiles, and even her infuriating arguing.
She wants to kill me the next time she sees me? By all means. Anything for my beautiful wife.
The moment my feet touch the ground, a shiver rushes down my spine as warmth envelops my back and hot words penetrate my ears. “Miss me, wife?”
But then the supposedly dream-like Kirill slips what feels like a ring on my finger and whispers in my ear, “Welcome home, Solnyshko.”
“Sasha is my wife. From today on, you’ll respect and protect her as you do me.”
“I don’t only love you. I’m nothing without you. I don’t know when it started or when it grew into this fiery explosion, but I know for a fact that you’ve become an undivided part of me. You’re the solace I need every night and the light I look forward to every morning. I might have strived for power and prestige, but it took losing you to realize that my universe revolves around you.”
