The Billionaire Mafia’s Slave

CHAPTER 34: HAPPY BIRTHDAY LILY

NIKOLAI’S POV:

My eyes slowly opened and I looked around to see where I was. My head was banging, my throat was dry and my vision blur. I tried to stand up from where I was laying but I felt a stabbing pain on the side of my stomach.

“Fuck!”, I cussed and lay back down.

I closed my eyes for a few more seconds then opened them again, there was an IV drip connected to my arm, I took the oxygen mask from my face same with the drip. I struggled to stand up and I looked around me, it wasn’t a hospital but it has some medical equipments.

‘What happened to me?’, I tried processing the previous events that got me to this place, It was then the memories came crashing back.

I went to Mexico to settle some business issues with a famous cartel, but we were ambushed, those mother fuckers betrayed us.

It amounted to a shootout and fistfights, Lev and I tried what we could. I lost a total of 7 men out of the 20 I took with me, I was shot in the left side of my stomach, Lev was unharmed and we wasted all their men.

I supported myself with the IV drip stand and strolled to the door, I can remember passing out when Lev drove me out of there but I don’t know if we’re back in America or still in Mexico.

I was about opening the door when someone opened it from outside and I saw Lev and Nate.

“Boss!”, Lev called out in surprise, he tried to take me back to the bed but I refused.

“I’m fine Lev”, I told him.

“No, you’re not fine Nikolai, the bullet hit your intra-abdominal vasculature. Wounds like that can cause severe bleeding, organ failure and even death–“, Nate tried explaining but I cut him off.

“I survived, didn’t I?”, I asked with a smirk on my face, Nate just shook his head and sighed in frustration.

I decided not to give him a tough time, I went back to sit on the bed but I refused for them to put the drip back on.

“How long have I been here for?”, I asked.

“3 days”, Lev replied.

“And what date is it today?”.

“It’s the 4th of September, why?”, Nate asked and I got up from where I sat in a flash.

“Shit! it’s Lily’s birthday tomorrow!!”, I exclaimed and they both looked at me like I was going crazy, maybe I was but I can’t miss her birthday.

“Why do you care?”, Lev asked and I just gave him the death stare, he made a motion of zipping shut his mouth and throwing away the keys.

I hurried and grabbed the clothes laying on the chair there to go change, the bullet wound stinks like crazy but I need to be out of here.

“Wow wow wow! Where are you in a rush to? You haven’t fully recovered”, Nate said as he held me from almost falling down. I didn’t pay him any attention and went to the restroom and change into clean clothes.

I got out of the restroom and started for the door.

“Nikolai, I know no matter what I say, it won’t stop you from leaving, but take care and call me if you start bleeding again”, Nate advised and I was grateful to him. I know how busy his schedule can be but he flew all the way from America to Mexico just for me.

I couldn’t go to a real hospital because I didn’t want the prying eyes of the cops.

“Thanks man, I owe you”, I said.

“You owe me a lot, start paying up”, He joked and I chuckled. I signalled Lev so we can start going and we left that hideout.

***

We arrived back home around 1am and Lily was already asleep.

‘It’s her birthday already’, I said to myself and smiled, I wanted going into her room and wishing her but I decided against it, she needs to sleep.

I clenched the injury on my abdomen and staggered to my room, Nate gave me some prescription before I left so I took them.

I opened my room and it was dark but I didn’t need the lights to see someone was sleeping on my bed, it can’t be Lily. I moved slowly and I took out my gun I always hid under the table, I took off the safety from the gun and I aimed at the figure on my bed, I got closer and I saw who it was.

“Irina?!”, I called out and she woke up, she screamed in shock as she saw the gun in my hand and I quickly put it away.

“Why are you here?”, I asked her. I remembered sending her away as a punishment.

“Nikolai… why did you co.. ome back late? I’m sleepy and ti… red”, She groaned and tried holding me, I moved aside. She didn’t bother and went back to sleep, I went to the sofa and sat down, I just needed the night to pass.

***

It was pass 6 in the morning and I was already awake, not that I slept or anything. I already instructed the maids to make a birthday cake for Lily and put it on the dining table.

7am came and I was already on the dining table, having breakfast, Irina came downstairs and she had a happy expression on her face when she saw me.

“I thought I was dreaming when I heard your voice”, She said smiling, she sat down beside me and he eyes went to the cake. She wanted touching it with her finger but I grabbed her hand and gave her a warning glare.

“What’s the occasion with the cake?”, She asked and I just continued eating my meal, she just shrugged and minded her business, she knows well than to speak again.

Then Lily finally came down and I smiled faintly.

“Nikolai?!”, She called me in surprise and I smiled brightly at her, she sat down on my left side where the cake was more beautiful, then she stared at it and its write up. [Happy 24th Birthday Lily].

“Wait, it’s f-for me?”, She asked in surprise and I nodded.

“Happy birthday lily”, I said and she smiled. That alone made my morning.

Irina scoffed and didn’t say anything and I didn’t mind her, as far as she wasn’t making any rude comments to Lily.

“Can I cut it now?”, Lily asked me.

“Sure! it’s yours… but you can only eat it after breakfast”, I instructed and she seems okay with it.

After breakfast, Irina left the table frowning and I didn’t bother. Lily was also done with her food and she wanted going back upstairs.

“Lily?”, I called out to her.

“Hm?”, She responded. I pushed a little gift bag into her hand and watched her expression morphed from neutral to curiosity.

“What’s inside?”, She asked, looking at me weirdly.

“It’s a surprise, you need to open it to know what’s inside silly”, I teased and she laughed. I watch as she opened the gift bag and brought out a little box for inside, she opened the box and gasped in surprise.

“A diamond necklace?!”, She asked in shock and I nodded, feeling proud of myself.

I never remember anyone’s birthday, not to talk of giving them a gift, but for Lily… I thought I should do something nice for her, I guess.

“No no, I can’t accept this”, She frowned and closed the little box and shoving it into my hand, I furrowed my brows in confusion.

“What? don’t y-you like it? Is-isn’t it beautiful enough?–“, I asked her. What was the problem with the necklace?

“Oh no, that’s not it… the necklace is gorgeous just– just that I can’t accept it. I’m sorry Nikolai”.

“Why not? it’s a birthday gift after all”, I said to her.

“But–“, She tried finding excuses again but I cut her off.

“Just take it, it’ll look beautiful on you”, I said, she sighed and collected it, ‘… and another thing, I am granting you just one wish… nothing about leaving here for good or getting you a phone”, I gave her some rules.

“Then can I see my Papa?”, She asked with the most beautiful pleading eyes ever.

‘Those eyes would look even more beautiful when she’s sucking on my hard cock, fuck!’, I thought to myself.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“No Lily, you can’t”, I said to her and frowned.

“But that wasn’t part of the rules you set!–“, She complained.

“It doesn’t matter what the rules I set, you can’t meet your father and that’s it!”, I roared and she sighed.

She paused and looked down on the box of necklace and smiled bitterly, then she scoffed.

“Then what’s the need of gifting this to me… happy birthday to me”, she sighed and just dropped the necklace on the dining table, then she left without looking at me.
