95. Epilogue!

Author's POV

"Vlad, I am ready! "

Vera walked out of the closest and he looked at her while sliding his phone in pocket.

"Wow! "

He looked at her up and down in an awe.

Vera looked away blushing.

"You are looking like a goddess..."

Vera was wearing Indian lehanga. mix of white and red colour was going perfectly with her complexion.

"Which one?.. There are many goddess in Indian culture."

Bella teased.

"Well, she is almost ready but there is one thing pending..."

She handed him anklets.

"It's a ritual, husband need to tie it around wife's ankels..."

"Thanks, I'll take it from here..."

Vlad showed her the door and she scowled at him.

"Asshole! "

She rolled her eyes and walked out.

"I'll take it as a compliment!"

Vlad chuckled behind her.

"Why are you so mean to her? "

Vera slapped his chest.

"She is not an innocent doll..."

He snaked his hand around her waist, Vera blushed when he felt warm against her bare skin. Her waist wasn't covered due to the gap in her lehanga and blouse.

"How do I control myself when you are walking around looking like this?.."

He whispered in her ear while playing with her earrings.

"Who gave you this jewellery?"

He asked, looking at the bangles around wrist.

She placed her hand on his chest and he loved the sound it made.

"Anamika got it for me, isn't this beautiful?... I had no idea that they were having two kinds of weddings."

Vera replied.

"It's fun and I love the way they respect their cultures."

"Uhmm! "

Vlad was lost in her beauty. He couldn't take his eyes off her.

"What is this? "

He kissed her bindibindi on forehead.

"Bindi, looks good. Isn't it? "

She smiled.

She sat on the bed and he bit his lips when he saw knots of her blouse on her back.

"God! "

He mumbled.

"Give me power to control myself today."

He knelt before her and placed her foot on his knee. Vera smiled when he gently tied anklets around her ankles.

She blushed furiously when he kissed her foot like he is worshipping her.

"Vlad!"

She got up and he smiled at the sound her movements made.

Her bangles and her anklets were driving him crazy.

"I would love to find out if this sound matches the rhythm of our passion."

He pulled her closer and captured her lips.

Vera melted under his passionate kiss.

"Don't take this off before tonight..."

He winked at her and her face turned red.

She chuckled.

"You are impossible. Let's go, we are late!"

She ran out of the room and he looked at her feet which made sound with every step.

He followed her out. Only few guests were there. He understood that they have kept the ceremony very private.

Vera was in awe and enjoying everything about the weddings. She had fun in Christian and Hindu, both weddings.

They all cheered when Grace walked towards the aisle.

"She is looking like a golden doll."

Vlad said.

"That's how bride looks."

Vera answered.

"I am sure that her jewellery and clothes weighs more than her."

"So, It's so fun... Look how beautiful she is looking."

Vera smiled at Grace.

"You stand here in your boring white suit, I am going to enjoy rituals."

She walked towards the Bella.

"At least I am not wearing black."

He shrugged.

"I hope you are enjoying."

He looked at the woman beside him.

"Of course!"

He looked at Anamika but didn't smile.

He haven't understand this woman yet, who is she and how can she be mentally so strong.

She makes him curious.

"Do you want to say something? "

She raised her eyebrows amused.

"You always look like that."

"How?"

He asked and her smile fell.

She understood what is he asking about. She thought she has erased all traces but he knows.

"I am the king. I have knowledge of certain things which has happened in the history of Russian mafia... Although, I had to dig a lot."

He assured.

"No one else knows."

Anamika smirked.

"Are you curious?"

Vlad got chills from her smirk.

"Some things are better to be keep away from kids"

"There is no woman who has survived them."

He said.

"And I am not talking about physical survival."

Anamika chuckled.

"I hope your wife enjoyed the doom of her enemy."

She whispered with the smirk and his eyebrows furrowed. Now he understood who was playing with Vera's mind. Why she was acting like that when he tortured Josh.

"You have no idea how much power a woman holds until you try her..."

She patted his arm and walked away.

Anamika walked towards the Rose and Vlad stood there stunned, looking at two powerful women he has ever met.

Rose raised a glass towards his direction with a smirk.

"What happened? "

He shook his thought aside and looked at Vera.

"Nothing! "

He gently pulled her in a hug and kissed her forehead.

They enjoyed the wedding, Vera was running errands with Bella and having fun.

They finally called the day off and decided to hit the bed.

"God! I am so tired."

Vera huffed.

"What do you expect after running around like a kid? "

Vlad chuckled.

"It's fun! I had lot of sweets today..."

She grinned like a child.

"Don't cry later while asking , am I looking fat?"

He replied.

"Would you mind if I get fat?"

She asked.

He shook his head.

"No! I would love to bite those chubby cheeks and spank that bouncy ass."

She gasped.

"Pervert."

She slapped his arm.

"Come with me! "

She grabbed his wrist and led him out of the room.

"I thought you are tired."

He asked confused when she led him towards the rooftop.

Vlad looked at small tent like bed and candle decorations and raised his eyebrows amused.

"Okayy! "

He looked at her.

"If you are whining now because of tiredness then I am warning you not to do it tonight because fuck me, I am trying to control myself since I have heard the sound of your anklets."

He said and she laughed.

"You are so cute."

She pecked his cheek and made him sit on the bed.

"Can't we just sit here and enjoy the moon?... Sex is not the only way to show passion."

"Of course!"

He smiled. She sat beside him and he placed her feet on his lap.

She smiled when he started playing with her anklets.

"You fell in love with these, didn't you?"

She admired him.

"Nahh, I fell in love with the feeling which this sound gave me... Whole day you were wearing these and whenever I heard this sound, I knew you are around. Many women were wearing it today but your sound were different, it's like my heart recognized it... It was like, yeah! That's my angle passing by."

He kissed her feet again.

"Vlad, is this really you? Because you really sound poetic."

She smiled.

He chuckled and led back on the bed.

"Come! "

He spread his arms and she placed her head on his chest.

He held her hand and caressed her bangles.

"I can't believe you are mine. There is no one else between us."

He looked at her.

She cleared her throat.

"Vlad, Actually... "

She gulped.

"Actually there is someone."

She said and his smile fell. He got up and looked at her with frown.

"What are you talking about? "

Vera was still laying on the bed.

"I asked you something!"

He was getting impatient.

"What do you mean by, there is someone?"

Vera grabbed his hand and gently placed it on her belly.

Vlad looked at his hand on her stomach confused but then it hit him. He looked at her shocked.

"Someone? "

His eyes widened.

Vera chuckled and nodded.

"Someone! "

"Fuck! "

Vlad's eyes watered with happiness.

"Fuck! "

He couldn't believe that he is going to be a father.

"I love you so much!"

He pampered her face with kisses.

They looked at each other with love filled eyes.

Vlad went down and gently kissed her belly.

"You should feel lucky that I am sharing my wife with you."

He said and Vera laughed.

"I love you."

She kissed his lips.

"I love you too."

He held her in his embrace and caressed her until she fell asleep.

Few months later...

"Hurry up, She broke her water! "

Grace yelled.

Vlad and Vera went back to Russia after wedding but when Vera started showing belly she wanted to stay with Marino family. She wanted the love which they give each other as a family and she was feeling alone in the house while Vlad was working.

She was so stubborn that Vlad couldn't help but agree with her. He managed to look after his business while taking care of her from Italy.

"Deep breaths and don't panic..."

Anamika instructed her.

"I think she knows, she is a doctor."

Alex said.

"Men don't get to talk in this... Take him!"

Grace handed him Salvatore.

Alex shrugged and looked at the kid.

"Our opinion doesn't matter here, dude..."

He said.

Salvatore called in his baby voice.

"Mommy! "

"Let your mommy go, today you will spend a day with your uncle..."

He tickled him and walked towards his office.

They took her to the hospital and Vlad was growing impatient while looking at her in pain.

He was holding her hand the whole time.

"I am sorry! "

He was chanting continuously.

They finally heard a cry and Vera fell back with the sigh of relief.

"Vera?"

Vlad caressed her head

"I am fine! "

She cried when doctor placed the baby on her chest.

She kissed her head.

"It's a girl! "

She looked at Vlad.

He looked at her with teary eyes. They kept the gender secret.

"Beautiful like you! "

He smiled.

Doctors shifted Vera to personal ward and Vlad sat beside her while rocking his baby in arms.

"Aww, You look so cute with her."

Grace entered with Salvatore in her arms.

"What's the name? "

She asked.

Vlad looked at Vera.

"Valerina! "

She declared and Vlad looked at her.

Grace smiled. That was their mother's name.

Vlad kissed her forehead.

"She will the head of Russian mafia..."

He declared and Vera looked at him shocked.

"I'll make her so powerful that no evil eye will dare to look at her..."

Vera looked at him proudly.

"You will be a great father! "

Grace smiled.

"Say, Hello to new baby, Salvatore..."

Salvatore looked at the babygirl and smiled cheekily.

"My wife! "

He said and everyone gasped at that, specially Vlad.

Grace looked at him shocked.

"Baby, Who taught you this? "

She asked.

"Uncle Alex! "

He giggled.

Vera burst out laughing and Vlad cursed.

"Bastard! "

Grace shook her head in disbelief.

"Alex!"

She looked at Salvatore.

"Do you know what wife means? "

She asked and he laughed in his baby voice while shaking his head.

"He is so cute."

Vera laughed.

"I am going to kill him."

Vlad said annoyed.

Grace walked out and Vera laughed.

"See, you are already so protective over her."

"Obviously!"

He placed his forehead on Vera's.

"It's time to go back to our home..."

"Yes! "

She smiled.

"Isn't this beautiful? "

She said.

"We finally make it."

"It's wasn't possible without you!"

He smiled.

"You are my eternity."

Vera's heart fluttered.

"Thanks for not letting me go."

"That wasn't even option! "

He said and she laughed.

Vlad felt complete after looking at his lovely wife and baby.

He never thought he would be a family man but there he is.

Everyone find their destiny and he has found his to cherish and love it FOREVER!

The End!
