"Are you sure that's a good idea"? I ask looking at her stomach, we decided to make a plan to get Ivan out, we would do it tomorrow but I haven't told her yet.

She just nods her head giving me a smile, she quickly raises up her top and stop just below her breast, her stomach looks big, not too big but it's pretty obvious she's pregnant.

She takes my hand in hers before gently placing it on her stomach, it's warm
I feel her tense a bit before relaxing.

I felt it, a slight movement, around the part my hand is
I look to her and she's smiling, she felt it too

"It's... moving" I whisper and she nods

"Yes it is" she says making me look at her

"How does it feel"? I ask taking my hand off and letting her adjust her top

She shrugs "it feels weird at the same time good, it's like I have a connection with it, like a strong bond" she explains.

I breathe out "Princess" I mutter out scooting close to her and she looks up at me

"Huh"? She asks

"принцесса, it means princess" I say and she smiles before nodding her head slowly

"Why do you call me that"? She asks and I shrug my shoulder

"Because that's what you are, you're a princess" I say tucking a strand of her hair away

"And let me guess you're supposed to be my prince charming"? She asks with a pointed look and I shake my head

"No, no, I'm your beast in the castle" I mutter and I see her brows scrunched up before she realizes what I meant and she chuckles lightly.

"So you do watch movies" she says and I shrug

"Sometimes" I mutter looking in front of me

"Cora" I call and she hums
"We're going to break him out tomorrow" I tell her and she turns to face me

"Are you sure"? She asks and I nod

"What about Enzo and his men"? She ask

"Leave that to me" I tell her and she looks at me skeptically

"Please don't tell me you're going to kill them" she whispers looking at me with horror

"I have to do what it takes to get Ivan out and if Enzo stands in my way, I will kill him" I say

"Can't you try something that doesn't involve anyone dying"? She asks moving away from me and I just shake my head, how can someone be so nice.

"If I don't kill him, he will kill me, so no there is no other way" I say looking away from her

"There's always another way, you don't have to kill people to get what you want" she tells me

"Yes I do, it's who I am, you can't be a part of this world without getting your hands dirty" I say facing her and she just scoffs

"It doesn't have to be, you don't have to be a killer" she whispers out

"It's who I am Cora, I can't change that about me"

"You don't have to be and I'm gonna prove it to you, we're gonna save Ivan tomorrow and you don't have to kill anyone" she says looking away from me
"I have a plan"





______________________________________

"Are you ready"? She walks towards me from the mansion's direction

"I hate this plan" I mutter putting my gun behind me

"Well at least it's better than your plan, your plan could get you killed" she sasses
"Come on let's go" she mutters before we both start walking towards the mansion.

There aren't much guards, just the two on the front gate, Enzo took most of them out to meet someone.

That someone being Tatum, yes I called in a favor.
Apparently he's doing business with Enzo downtown, which in turn means the house will be empty with only a few guards

"Are you sure this thing won't kill them"? She asks examining the taser in her hand

"No, it's only going to put them out for a while, so we need to hurry" I mutter as we get closer to the gate.

I just hope her plan works and no one has to die.
Because I'm not taking any chances, Ivan is getting out of here today.
