Nikolai POV

I found her question a bit strange, why was she suddenly asking about Leona? I studied Anastasia's face, searching for answers but her expression was unreadable, her eyes fixed on the stars above.

"Why are you asking about Leona?" I asked carefully.

She shrugged, still not looking at me. "Just curious, you don't have to answer if you don't want to."

"Anastasia….."

"I mean it. Forget that I ever asked that."

But I couldn’t just forget that she asked that, not when she was looking at

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   You are everything

    Nikolai POVI found her question a bit strange, why was she suddenly asking about Leona? I studied Anastasia's face, searching for answers but her expression was unreadable, her eyes fixed on the stars above."Why are you asking about Leona?" I asked carefully.She shrugged, still not looking at me. "Just curious, you don't have to answer if you don't want to.""Anastasia…..""I mean it. Forget that I ever asked that."But I couldn’t just forget that she asked that, not when she was looking at me like that, and the question hanging between us like something unsaid."Leona and I have known each other since we were kids," I said finally. "I've always seen her as a sister. She was like a junior sister to me. I've always looked out for her, protected her, the way I would protect my own family."She nodded slowly, still not meeting my eyes."I have another question," she said softly. "What do you think about me?"I blinked, taken aback. "What?""You heard me." She finally turned to face me

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   Living a Little

    Anastasia's POVI watched Nikolai make numerous calls trying to book us a spot in one of the first-class restaurants in Athens.For every call he made his jaw tightened with each rejection. The frustration was evident in the way his fingers tapped against his phone, the way his brow furrowed, the way his voice grew clipped and impatient."Full? Again? Are you serious?"He ended the call, running a hand through his hair. I could tell he was about to try another number, his pride clearly wounded by the fact that the great Nikolai Stavros couldn't secure a table for a simple dinner.But then I heard it.Music. Traditional Greek music, drifting through the air from somewhere nearby. The melody was haunting and beautiful, filled with the sound of stringed instruments and rhythmic drums. There was a kind of pull the music had on me.So I followed it without talking to Nikolai. I didn't even think about it. I just let my feet carry me toward the sound, my curiosity piqued, my troubles momen

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   Use me as you wish

    Nikolai POVAfter Anastasia had left, not saying where she was headed or anything, I was silently furious.I stood in the empty hallway, my hands clenched into fists, my jaw clenched tightly.How could she still ignore everything her sister was doing? How could she keep protecting someone who clearly didn't care about her? Bianca had scammed another innocent person, drained another account, caused another scandal and Anastasia just kept cleaning up the mess, over and over again.I didn't understand it. I couldn't understand it.She was on the receiving end of all this pain. She was the one who got hurt, who lost money, who had to apologize for things she didn't do and still, she wouldn't let me help. Still, she pushed me away.I was still lost in my thoughts when Elias appeared beside me."Sir," he said, his voice careful. "I have information on the man who was scammed."I turned to him, surprised. "I didn't ask for that.""I know, sir but I thought you might want to see it."He handed

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   She's still my sister

    Anastasia POVI wanted to explain to him the situation I was in. I opened my mouth ready to explain everything about the client, the scam, the empty account, the impossible amount of money I needed to repay but I couldn't tell him. The situation felt so embarrassing, so humiliating. How could I explain to him that my own sister had done this to me again? How could I ask him to loan me the money?I was still drifting into my thoughts, trying to find the right words, when Nikolai snatched the phone from my hand."Hey….." I started, reaching for it to get it back from him.But he was already scrolling through my recent calls, his eyes moving quickly over the screen. His expression darkened immediately his eyes fell on Bianca's name."How much?" he asked, his voice flat.I blinked. "What?""How much did Bianca scam someone this time?"I opened my mouth to deny it, to tell him it was nothing, that I could handle it but the look in his eyes stopped me."Five hundred thousand Pounds," I whis

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   You don't have to do it alone

    Anastasia POVJust as Elias had reported, Nikolai came to my office to pick me up and that gesture alone was more than enough to stir up conversations throughout the building.I could hear the whispers as we walked through the corridors, the hushed voices of my employees as they watched us pass. Some were smitten by the show of affection on Nikolai's part, the way his hand rested on my back, the way he leaned in to murmur something in my ear and how he has been looking at me in recent times like I was the only person in the room.But others had different opinions."Did you see her face? She looked like she wanted to be anywhere else.""I know, right? He's so attentive, and she's just... cold.""Maybe she's just not a romantic person.""Or maybe she doesn't actually like him."I felt my jaw tighten at the comments, but I said nothing. I just kept walking, my face carefully neutral, my eyes fixed straight ahead.Nikolai, of course, heard everything, because he made it so obvious for me

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   Nothing more than a bargaining chip

    Anastasia POVThere was a fierce staring contest between the both of us and neither one of us was willing to backing down.Leona's eyes were cold, calculating, utterly unyielding. I remembered what Zara had told me about her, how she was a woman who was used to getting what she wanted, and she wasn't about to let me stand in her way but I wasn't about to back down either. I'd spent my entire life fighting for what I wanted, and I wasn't about to stop now."You think you know what's best for him?" I asked, my voice sharp. "You think you can just waltz in here and dictate who he should be with?""I know I can offer him things you can't," she replied smoothly. "I know what he needs and I know you're not it.""And what makes you so sure?"She laughed, a cold, brittle sound. "Anastasia, let's be honest with each other. You have nothing to offer him. Your family is very much dysfunctional. Your father uses you as a bargaining chip and your sister is a criminal who's been dragging your name

    Nikolai POV I stepped out of her office, the door closing behind as I stepped into the quiet hallway feeling accomplished.

    ANASTASIA’s POVOh…You’ve got to be fucking kidding me!Was he serious? Like…actually serious? Or had he somehow lost a screw?I let out a forced chuckle. ‘’Tell me you’re joking.’’ I snapped, my judgemental gaze trailed on him.
