"Well, welcome to one of my many businesses. This here, is my baby. Запрещенное."

"The Forbidden. Why would you open a club in Russia?"

"Money. Why do I do anything I do?" He opened a bottle of champagne and handed me a glass.

"Of course. Now, Karrion, why are we really here?" He smiled softly.

"I can't get anything over you can I?"

"Nope."

"Well, you speak dozens of languages and I only speak 6. I need you to help me translate. Plus, my Danish is a bit messed up."

"If you needed a translator, you should've just said so." Just then, two men in black suits walked in. Karrion seemed...pleased to see the first man but when he caught a glimpse of the second man, he lost it.

"Какого хрена он здесь делает ?!" (What the fuck is he doing here?!) He yelled angrily as he got up. Well, apparently, he's fluent in Russian.

"Успокойся, Каррион, он здесь по делам." (Calm down Karrion, he's just here for business.) The first man said. The second man was just looking at me and I was freaked out.

"Я не веду дела со змеями вроде него." (I don't do business with snakes like him.) Karrion turned and noticed the man's eyes roaming my body and I could feel the anger coming off him. "Я буквально вырву тебе глаза, если ты снова посмотришь на нее." (I will literally pluck out your eyes if you look at her again.)

"Успокойся, брат, я просто любовался этим прекрасным произведением искусства." (Calm down brother, I was just admiring this beautiful work of art.) Brother? Wait...

"Stay away from her Andrei, I mean it." Andrei?

"I'd love to hear her say that." Karrion was a second away from committing murder. I stood up and placed a hand on his arm.

"Mr. Andrei, I don't think we've properly met." I said with my arms folded. Karrion was looking at me with confusion.

"We haven't. Pardon my manners but my brother has a way of getting on my last nerve."

"Believe me, I know." He laughed a little but Karrion did not find it funny. "You don't know me Andrei and believe me, I don't care to know you."

"Oh. She's a feisty one."

"I am. But this is me being nice, you don't want to see my other side. Now, I'm going to ask you nicely to take your leave. You're upsetting him and frankly, you're irritating me."

"Wow, you know, I can think of a million ways of shutting you up right now."

"I would love to see you try." Karrion stepped forward and next thing I know, they both have their guns pointed. Seriously, not again. "Sending your men to kill me after my jet landed was a bad idea."

"I'm the head of the Russian mafia, it's what I do." How? Karrion is the head of the Italian mafia and Andrei is the head of the Russian mafia, how is that possible?

"Give me a reason not to kill you right now."

"You're still on Russian soil, my men will kill you before you leave this building."

"You do know that I'm a trained assassin right?" I asked as I collected the gun from Karrion. He sat back calmly. He knew that I could handle myself.

"My brother has a thing for the crazy ones. But it's all good, I'll leave. But I'll be back, best believe that." He turned and walked out of the room. The other guy just stood there.
