I believe it's day 7 of living here and I am extremely bored.
I have however made some vast improvements.
For one I added my gold decorations.
I've noticed nearly everything in this house is black and it's painful. So I've been adding gold touches here and there to spicen up the rooms.
I have no idea how Ivan feels about it because I have not seen him.
He's broken his rules of we have to eat together at least once.
I'm not upset I'm glad I don't have to see him.
For some reason every time I find myself in his presence I feel like I can't breathe.
It's infuriating.
I've also sat in the fountain now for 3 hours throughout the days.
One of these days I'm going to develop hypothermia.
"Um..sir?" I ask the guards.
He stares at me.
"Could.."
I pause.
I need to get my shit together.
It doesn't matter if I'm shy or nervous or scared.
They can't know that.
Your the most dangerous mafia leader in the worlds wife start acting like it.
And stop acting like you don't know how to kill someone Elle.
"I am going out. And since I need to be accompanied I'll give you 5 minutes to get your shit and then we're going to the mall." I say, calmly with slight warning in my voice.
"Yes ma'am"
I nod and walk out front.
4 minutes later he joins me outside and I climb into the car.
We get there within 20 minutes and I climb out putting my shades on.
"Are you to come with? Or wait?" I ask the man.
I properly stare at him.
He's blonde icy blue eyes about 6'0 and in his later 20s, 30 at a PUSH.
"You walk, I'll walk behind you" he says.
I smile and walk off.
I go into all my favourite stores and look what I have in my wallet!
Ivan's card.
I actually didn't even mean to take it but it's here now.
Might as well.
I walk into a channel store and pick up these gorgeous diamond earrings and a purse.
I give her my card and she nods at me smiling.
"Is that everything?"
"Hmm I don't know what would you suggest?"
"Well we just got these new shoes in they are beautiful"
She shows me a pair of black, glossed high heels but where the heel is there's a row of pearls.
Like I'm walking on a little pearl tower.
"Okay I love them, I'll get those"
The woman blinks slowly.
"These are $5000"
"Okay awesome I'll get them"
Her mouth opens slightly and then she hands them to me.
I wave and walk out.
I head into Dior next and pick up some perfumes and lip glosses.
And I'm not a snob I go into all the stores, Zara, Boohoo the whole thing.
I might need a cart for all the bags.
I even go into the candy store and pick up a bag of candy floss and give it to the body guard.
"You need me to hold it for you?"
"Oh no I mean this is for you"
"You got me a box of candy floss?"
"Yes!"
He stares at me and then smiles ever so slightly and takes the box cautiously as if it's laced with explosives.
"Thank you, Miss"
"Please call me Elle"
"Right..Elle"
"And your name?"
"Elliot"
"Oh look we're both E's"
He shakes his head laughing at me and I frown.
"What's so funny?"
"I can't understand why on earth Ivan chose you. I mean your so different from him."
"Different how?"
"Your nice"
"Thanks Elliot"
I don't know what he means chose.
He didn't chose.
Our marriage is a business strategy.
I want to go to urban outfitters.
"Excuse me miss?"
"Mm?" I say turning around to see this boy approaching me.
He's maybe 23.
"I just saw you across the mall and I just wanted to come say hi"
"Oh..hi!"
"Your just so beautiful and I wanted to try my luck"
"Thanks" I say smiling.
"I was wondering if I could have your number?"
"Okay" I say giving it to him.
What? No one said anything about being faithful.
Besides I'm sure the reason I haven't seen Ivan is because he's visiting all of this side chicks.
Probably takes off his ring too.
Asshat.
"She's married fuck off before I skin you alive" someone calls grabbing me arm.
Ivan.
It's like I summoned him.
I turn my head and his gaze terrifies me.
This is the most dangerous mafia leader in the world.
I'm dead. I'm dead.
Ivan grabs my arm and drags me out the mall.
"Wha- stop."
"You know I am told of your movements. So I know when you run off to the mall"
"So? It's the mall" I say annoyed.
"You took my card malysh" he says.
I say nothing instead I glare at him.
"And you spent $60,000 of my money"
Oh shit.
"That's embarrassing. Your my wife now." He says still pulling me out the mall.
"Your not mad?" I ask still confused.
"I'm mad you didn't at least spend 100k what are we poor? For gods sake if your taking my card at least use it"
I start laughing hysterically as I reach the car park.
"Your not scary. I have no idea why you scare me. Your so weird" I say still laughing as he shoves me in the car.
"I got you something" I say handing him something.
He leans through the window to take it.
He opens it.
It's a gold necklace with the initial E on it.
For Elle.
I reach towards the window as the car starts.
"So when your fucking your whores you can still remember who your wife is" I say smiling.
He grabs my jaw softly so we're almost kissing.
I hold my breath.
"If I see you flirting with other guys malysh, I will carve my initials into your thigh"
He lets go and steps back as the car moves.
I slide down the seat in shock.
