Abellona fed Mila as Nikolai chatted with the team.
Sohan was outside training Lily for tomorrow's match.
("She is gorgeous, Nick. You're a lucky man.") Marks, a team member, said.
("Thank you.") Nikolai said.
("Here, the bridesmaid souvenirs.") Zhanna said.
("Y'all getting married again?") Abellona said.
("Yeah.") Nikolai said.
("That's great, Nick!") she said.
Mila took another bite of the mashed potato mixed with diced beef.
Meanwhile, outside, Sohan, Nihal, Rafsan, Karim, and Ariz were outside.
Lily smirked.
("Alright. Show me what you got.")
("Baby!") Sohan said.
Everyone watched her.
She took a deep breath and bounced the ball.
Then grinned.
She moved, running, then she used a move she learned from her previous games.
Behind-the-Back Dribble.
She protected the ball while changing direction.
Sohan watched as she threw the ball up in the air.
The boys followed the ball, trying to catch the ball as Lilith grinned.
She ran with speed and passed Karim, the tallest.
When the ball was about to enter Ariz's hands, she grabbed the ball.
("Tf!?") Rafsan said.
She dribbled the ball around Nihal, bouncing it in between her legs.
Nikolai grinned.
("Go, Baby!") he said, cheering her on like she did during his match yesterday.
She was sweating as she reached the goal.
She turned to see them behind her, trying to get the ball.
Even with her height, she still managed the jump a little.
Mila giggled and said,
("Mama tiny.")
She said it as Nikolai choked on his wine with a laugh.
Mila laughed as Lily scored three points again.
She grinned at her brother.
Sohan studied her moves as she tickled Reyan by moving right.
She laughed at him and kept bouncing the ball as she threw the ball and scored.
They cheered.
Sohan grinned.
The boys blinked in shock.
She jumped with excitement.
Mila clapped.
("Wow! She actually reached the goal!") Hassan said.
Noor giggled.
Her bump was now bigger.
He kissed her forehead.
Lily and Sohan screamed and high-fived each other, then laughed.
("Looks like I gave birth to your father's female version of himself.") Riyana said.
("No kidding, Mumma.") Nishi said while laughing.
Anika giggled.
("Oh no. Papa lose.") Ivaan said, covering his face.
Mila was sucking her thumb.
Nikolai cleaned Lilith's face.
("That rock!") she said.
He smiled proudly at his tiny wife, then kissed her.
Mila admired her parents' love.
She blinked slowly.
Abellona hugged Mila.
("Bye, baby. See you during the wedding. I will miss you so much.") she said.
("Me too, pwetty auntie. Ba Ba!") Mila said, waving at her as they all left.
Lily counted her money.
She packed her sleepover bag.
Nikolai watched her sadly.
His blue eyes were sad.
("Aw, my poor baby.") she said, giving him a kiss.
He pouted.
("Hmmm.") he growled.
("Be a good boy.") she said.
He nodded.
("My show.") he said.
("My sweet baby, don't worry. Mama has a great show, special performance for you.") she said.
His eyes lit up.
("Can we go to the club tonight? Just us?") he said.
She smirked.
("Let's sneak out.") she said.
He chuckled.
("Of course, my midnight angel.") Nikolai said.
As he gave Lily his phone to use, it was 9:04 p.m.
Nikolai was waiting outside, dressed in all black.
He leaned on the car parked at the first gate.
He saw Lilith, his wife, running to him, holding her shoes in her hand.
("Let's go!") she said.
He chuckled.
She wore a short, tight black skirt with a tiny-strap crop top and a dark brown leather jacket and boot heels.
She had silver jewelry on.
She had little makeup on with a soft nude lip combo.
Her hair was straight.
Nikolai eyed her carefully.
("Hmmm.") he said.
She got into the car.
It drove off.
After ten minutes, Nikolai and Lily entered a club.
He wore a black mask and also had a chain on his neck called The Infinite Dragon, worth ₽180 billion.
The club was loud.
Nikolai held Lilith's hand tightly, not letting go.
She danced among the crowd.
Nikolai sat in the VIP lounge, his eyes never leaving his woman.
He watched the way she moved her hips along with the song.
She and some dancers performed together as Lily got on the pole and danced with them.
Nikolai bit his lip behind his mask as he drank his whiskey.
She winked at him.
The lights turned red.
The music slowed down.
He stood up.
She held a bottle for him as he passed through the people.
She placed her hand on his chest.
He removed his mask and let it hang on his ear.
She wrapped her arm around his neck.
He held her waist.
("I love you so much, Nikki.") she said, cupping his face.
He wiped her tears.
("I love you more than anything, Bambi.") he said.
("Now and forever.") they said.
And kissed slowly.
Other couples were also kissing too, but they kissed like nothing in the world could stop them.
It was morning.
Mila was checking her dress for Farhid's wedding that was on next week Friday, on the 12th.
Hammed had already rearranged his new room for his wife-to-be.
He prepared her prayer spot.
He organized her new Qurans and Islamic books.
His father showed him the wedding suit.
He liked it.
("Sir!!!") He heard his sweetest voice as he turned to see her.
("Hello, Jaan (love).") He said with a smile.
("Look at my score!") she said.
He held the papers and had a grin.
("My girl got all A's.") he said.
She nodded.
("Tell me what to get you?") Hammed said.
She shyly held her scarf.
("You…") Farhid said.
His eyes grew wider.
("Huh?") he said.
She looked around.
Nobody was there.
She whispered in his ear.
("After the wedding, I want a hug from you, my first hug, first kiss, and I'm giving you my first time in…") she said shyly.
Hammed slowly rubbed his neck.
("First time in what, my love?") he said in a tone darkened.
She covered her face, looking away.
("In b…bed.") she said.
He moved closer.
("Oh, my rare jewel. I will make it a night you will never forget.") he said.
They stared at each other.
("I… I love you, Farhid.") said.
("I love you more, Jaan (love).") Hammed said.
He smiled at her.
("Yo, bro. Got to go!") David said.
She gasped, moving back.
("Coming!") he said.
("Bye, my sweet princess.") he said again.
And he walked out.
She couldn't stop blushing.
Lily and Nikolai came back home by 4 in the morning.
Both were asleep.
("Mumma, why don't you tell Nikolai?") Zafraan said.
("Nobody is telling anyone about this, okay? It's fine.") Riyana said.
Sohan held her hand.
("No, Mama, it not.") Farhan said.
Clara held Riyana's hand.
("Boss will lose his mind if he finds out about this.") Mother Nimra said.
("No kidding.") Nihal said.
Damian walked in.
("Greetings, Mother.") he said, taking Riyana's and Sohan's blessings.
("Hello, Dammy.") Sohan said.
("Here are the keys to the mansion. It is ready, and the wedding is set to be on Boss and Lily's wedding anniversary date, that upper week.") he said.
("Good. We will go on Thursday. We have to welcome all the family members. We informed them and also prepared everything.") Riyana said.
("Of course, Mother. I sent workers. They are there. If you need anything, tell me.") Damian said.
("Thank you, Dammy. You work so hard for the family.") Sohan said.
("It's fine. Everyone is my family. I've been working for Boss since I was 14, so yeah, it is all okay.") he said.
They smiled at him.
By 6:30 p.m., Lilith held her small bag.
She stood by the door.
("Bye, guys!!!") she said, waving at the family.
("BYE, LILY!") they said.
Nikolai made a pouting face.
He whined as he held her hand.
Mila hugged her mama.
("Don't worry, my love. I come home soon, okay, sweetheart? You stay with Dada, okay, my love?") she said while rubbing her back.
Mila nodded.
She wiped her tears.
Nikolai carried her.
Mila pouted.
She wanted to cry.
Lily kissed her.
("I love you.") she said.
("I wuv you too, Mama.") Mila said sadly.
Nikolai held his tears.
("Bye, baby.") she said as she kissed him lovingly.
He held her.
("Bye, Nikki.") she said.
("B… Bye, Bambi.") he said.
Both father and daughter held their tears.
She kissed their cheeks.
("Bye, my babies.") she said as she got into the car, waving at them.
("B… Bye, Mama!") Mila said as her little tears came down.
Nikolai too.
("Bye, Bambi.") he said.
("No c… c… cwy, D… Dada.") Mila said.
As both of them began to cry.
("Oh, shit…") Jaxon said.
They hugged.
Meanwhile, in an ash mansion, Osyth's house, she double-checked the snacks and made sure everywhere was clean.
Her mother, Mrs. Faith, and her husband, Mr. Iscariot, her stepfather, and their children—two boys named Eloy and Douglas and three girls named Shirley, Piper, and Lian—were there.
("Here, baby.") Mr. Iscariot said.
As Osyth took the drinks and put them in the ice.
("Madam, your friends are here.") the maid said.
She got up and opened the door.
("Hi, Osyth!!!!") the girls said.
("Hey!!") she said as they came in.
("Where is Lily?") she said.
As a car pulled up, Lilith stepped out.
She waved at the guards.
They waved back before the car drove off.
("Hi!") she said as Osyth hugged her.
("That Mrs. Nikolai Devereaux.") Mrs. Faith said as Lily walked in.
"Greetings." she said.
"Welcome, Mrs. Lilith. Please come in."Mrs. Faith said as Lily smiled at her.
They all walked to Osyth's room where they sat laughing, chatting, gossiping, and showing each other new hair, nails, girl things to get, and also planning a spa day.
Girls' time.
