Forged In Blood (Bratva Blood Brothers Book 4)

Ana interrupted his statement by shaking her head. “I loved it because he raised us there. He taught us his craft within its walls and we lived there because of him. I don’t think I’ll be going back there anytime soon. Sazon lives here and he wants me to stay with him.”
“Is that what you want too?” Drago asked staring into her eyes.
Ana smiled. “Yes, I want that. Sazon wants to put a ring on my finger and he wants the whole world to know that I am his woman.”
“Then Gretchen and I will move here. We can still make the blades our grandfather taught us to make anywhere and we can still do the business we were meant to do. My son can grow up strong and our children will know each other as they grow.” He turned and glared at Sazon and his brothers. “Although I am not happy with your husband being Bratva, it could be worse.”
“Sazon and his brothers are good people,” Ana assured him. “They have honor and that is something that is sometimes hard to find in most men. They learned that from men like Sergi, Misha and Nikoli.”
“Do you think they will mind us moving here?”
“Why don’t you ask him and find out?”
Drago grabbed her wrist and hauled her back to the group. “I have a question.”
Sazon crossed his arms over his chest. “And what would that be?”
“Ana and I have never lived apart from one another. She is my sister and we were raised to stand beside each other always. I knew the day would come when she fell in love and got married but the murder of our grandfather has changed what would have been. If she is going to live here, I want to move my family here too. I can’t live in the same house as our grandfather died in any more. There are too many memories there. I have a job that I love, forging blades and I can do that anywhere. I don’t need your permission to move here but I would like to know that you would have no objections to the move.”
Sazon glanced at his brothers and leaders then stepped forward with his hand held out. “I would be happy to welcome you to come here.”
Drago smiled slightly, turning his head to glance at his sister. “When we have the time I have stories I could tell you about how much of a brat she was growing up.”
Sazon and all of his brothers threw their heads back and the room rang with laughter. They all had run ins with her and knew she must have been a handful when younger as she was one now.
Ana charged her brother and wrapped her arms around him. “I have many stories too. About all the pranks you used to pull on me and how I got back at you each and every time.”
Drago hugged her close then unwrapped her arms and holding her hands he went over to Sazon. Putting her hands in the bigger man’s mans’ hand he told Sazon, “I am giving my sister over to you for safekeeping. Guard her life with your own because if you ever hurt her, I will come for you. You may be Russian but so am I and I know seventy different ways to kill a man, as I’m sure you have the same knowledge. When I get back home, I will forge a special blade and it will be on display in my home. This woman means the world to me and I would protect her from any harm including harm from you. The blade I make will be a reminder to everyone and I will use it to take you down. My vow will be as strong as the love I hold in my heart for this woman.”
Sazon nodded at the other man. “If I had a sister I would expect no less from the man I would give her to one day. You go ahead and forge the sword but know that you will never have to use it.” Turning to Ana, he spoke his own vow, “I will never bring her pain. I will never allow anyone to harm her and I will love her always.”
“And you will have to wait to make her your wife until I can be there to give her away,” Drago stated. “That is non-negotiable.”
“Then you’d better hurry up and get moved down here because I will not wait very long to claim her as my wife.” Sazon glared at him.
Jethro slapped Drago on the back. “Don’t you worry about that my man. We’ll get him packed up and on the road to his new home within a couple of weeks.”
“I will hold you too that,” Sazon stated as a hint of a smile showed on his face..
Ana’s heart grew full to overflowing. She no longer worried about the fact that the two most important men in her life wouldn’t be there for her. As much as she loved her brother, she also didn’t want Sazon to stand between them. Nor did she want Drago to stand between her and the man she loved and now she knew they would both stand beside her. A sudden beam of light shined through the window and she could feel her grandfather’s spirit standing next to her. It was over in a moment but she felt it. In her own mind, she finally said her goodbyes to the man who raised her and loved her as much as she loved him.
“Goodbye Pops, you loved me first, but they will love me now. You taught us well and we will teach our children the thing you taught us. I’ll always love you.”

K.J. Dahlen
I live in a small town (population495) in
Wisconsin. From my deck, I can see the Mississippi River on one side and the bluffs, where eagles live and nest on the other side. I live with my husband Dave and dog Buddy. My two children are grown and I have two grandchildren. I love to watch people and that has helped me with my writing. I often use people I watch as characters in my books and I always try to give my characters some of my own values and habits.
I love to create characters and put them in a troubling situation then sit back and let them do all the work. My characters surprise even me at times. At some point in the book, they take on a life of their own and the twists and turns they create becomes the story. Of all the stories, I could write I found I like mystery/thrillers the best. I like to keep my readers guessing until the very end of the book.
