f*****g Dmitri and Alexei claiming they are blood bonded with my mate. Little fuckers. Suddenly they bellow through the link her name and danger. Mikhail is out the door and in the hall by the time I get there, and the twins are already in the room we put Maisie in, Luka’s room.
I storm in, ready to beat someone’s ass, only to hear laughter and see everyone just fine. I glare at Hanna.
“Really Hanna?”
She shrugged. “They are her ‘blood brothers’ now, so why not test them? She didn’t expect all four of you to flip your s**t”
She glanced at the twins and rolled her eyes.
Alexei smirked. “Little sister here” Dmitri picked up “Inadvertently mixed our blood.” Alexei took over. “When we were holding her hands”
They both grinned at me and then winked at Hanna, who rolled her eyes. Mikhail’s eyes widened, and mine narrowed.
“I’ve been stuck with you in my mind for the last 30-odd years. You’re like children who don’t know how to shut the hell up, now you are going to yammer at her.”
Hanna grinned.
“Maisie has a family bond with the twins now.”
I stared at her intently, then looked at the twins. and snarled.
She looks like an angel curled up on Luka’s couch. Her soft voice calling my name pulls me closer. I look down at the blanket, our blanket, I gave her a tender look and flicked a f**k off look to the others before strolling out of the room and closing the door, catching sight of her wrapping it back around herself.
I leaned against the wall outside her room and made the phone call.
Luka “Petrov”
Niko “Hey Brat”
Luka “Hey, I’m busy, what do you need?”
Niko “She’s home. We found her on our territory a few hours.”
Luka “Are you sure it’s her?”
Niko “Yeah. Her memory is f****d. Come home Luka, she needs us both.”
Luka “No. But keep me updated. When you find out who did this, I’ll be there. I can’t come back there. I won’t.”
Niko “You don’t think she’s worth coming home for?”
Luka “She’s better than both of us. But I’m too f****d up. Take care of her, Niko”
