Carol Marinelli - The Price Of His Redemption

‘I’m not going to tell you.’

He didn’t start slow, he just lowered his head—and Libby got the most thorough kissing of her life. His jaw was rough and delicious, but when she tried to kiss him back she was met by a refusal. This was his kiss to her , his mouth said.

His kiss had her hot, right there in the street. The only movement he allowed was for her hands to reach for his chest and slide over the cool fabric of his shirt. He let her experience a fraction of what being held by him felt like, then cruelly removed the pleasure.

‘Bed,’ Daniil said.

‘I don’t …’ Libby halted. What had she been about to say? That she didn’t want to?

Since the age of eight, dancing had come first. Which had meant self-discipline.

In everything.

How nice to stand here on the brink of making a decision based purely on now —on her own needs and wants right at this moment.

And she did want.

So she chose to say yes when the wisest choice might have been to decline.

‘Bed,’ Libby said, nodding.

‘HEY, SHISHKA.’

Daniil Zverev stiffened as he walked into the dormitory and heard what his friend Sev had just called him.

It would seem that shishka was now his new name.

Russian slang could hit just where it hurt, and tonight it did its job well.

Big gun.

Bigwig.

Big shot.

Daniil watched as Sev put down the book he had been reading.

‘We were just talking about how you’re going to go and live with the rich family in England, shishka .’

‘Don’t call me that again,’ Daniil warned, and picked up the book and held it over his head. He made to rip the pages out but, as Sev swallowed, Daniil tossed it back on the bed.

He wouldn’t have torn it—Sev only occasionally had a book to read—but Daniil hoped he would heed the warning.

‘Did you find any matches?’ Nikolai looked up from the wooden ship he was painstakingly building and Daniil went into his pocket and took out the handful that he had collected when he had done his sweeping duty.

‘Here.’

‘Thanks, shishka .’

Daniil would do it; he would smash Nikolai’s ship. His breathing was hard and angry as he stared down his friend.

The four boys were, in fact, far more than friends.

Yes, Daniil and Roman might be identical twins and Nikolai and Sev no relation, but all four had grown up together. With their dark hair and pale skin, they were the poorest stock amongst the poor. At the baby house they had stood in their cribs and called to each other at night.
