Dominate me by Julia Romush (most read books txt) 📖

Tears welled up in my eyes. I hurried out of the hotel restaurant at such a speed that I could probably compete with a sports car.

Everything that just happened was a complete nightmare.

In a matter of minutes, I lost hope that I would have a lawyer and, it seems, a man who could solve my problems. I screwed up. And I could only blame myself for that. No one else.

Yes, now I realized how senseless everything I had done was. But I couldn't change anything.

I saw Artem's face when I finished my story. I saw him looking at me and I think I need to hurry to the house and pack my things. It is unlikely that this man will want to have something in common with me after all that has happened.

He flew into the restaurant in such a rage that, it seemed to me at the time, he would just grab me by the neck with his fingers and will take my life forever.

I've never seen him like this before. So evil. Enraged. His gaze killed. Nailed to the place.

The thought that we would have to say goodbye made my chest clench. I caught my breath and found it difficult to breathe. Tears of hail rolled down my cheeks. How could I allow this? How could I not help my sister and lose Artem at the same time?

"Mia", I didn't immediately realize that someone was talking to me.

I only responded to a man's voice when someone's fingers touched my elbow.

After blinking a couple of times, I realized that I was just standing at the entrance to the hotel and could not move. Turning my head to the sound of a man's voice, I noticed Alex looking at me anxiously.

"You'd better get in the car", the man said, pulling me along.

My shock had not yet passed, and I obediently followed the driver. As soon as the car door opened in front of my nose, I seemed to come out of a trance.

"No", I shook my head in denial and took a step back.

"Mia, it is not in your position to continue to resist. You have already done enough for today, I would not advise to anger Mr. Klimov even more", Alex said in a calm tone, and I was startled by his words.

"I'm not sure if he will want to see me after all that ..."

"I was ordered to put you in the car and not let you go until the boss leaves the restaurant."

Did he give the order? Does this mean that not everything is lost for me?

Having received at least a little, but hope, I silently climbed into the car. Alex sat in the driver's seat and did not say another word to me.

Turning my head to the left, I froze. From this angle, it was very clear Artem and the lawyer sitting in the restaurant. Leaning closer to the glass, I eagerly stared at the two.

The lawyer did not leave, he still continued to sit still. The men were talking about something. That's just I could not understand anything. Both had stone faces. They didn't express any emotions at all, and it made me incredibly angry. I so wanted to know what was going on there.

Once again I managed to curse myself for getting angry, frustrated and left. And now I just had to greedily watch what was happening and just guess what was happening to them there.

It's been a long time, it's getting dark outside, and Artem is still sitting at the table with a lawyer.

I was completely surprised. Dmitry, who could not give me more than twenty minutes, referring to urgent matters, now sat for more than an hour with Klimov in a restaurant and did not even hurry anywhere.

It seemed to me that the two would never get out, but in twenty minutes they got up from the table and headed for the exit.

My heart was pounding with such force that it seemed as if it was about to break to pieces.

At the exit, the men shook hands, and the lawyer went to his car. And I eagerly watched where Artem would go.

When I realized that he was approaching the car in which I was sitting, I felt sick. My temples began to throb, the blood in my veins began to boil, and it seemed that at some point I began to choke.

Artem opened the car door from the driver.

"For today you can be free, I will drive the car."

My fingers pressed into the seat upholstery so much that I could no longer feel them.
