Great chapter. I love Sasha still, if she was real I would be friends with her and help her to see her worth. Dmitry does not see her worth.
Everything I wanted to say was said below me by PharD anonymous.
I too keep going back to Dmitry and Sasha's first time, as a woman who has only been with one man as well. The emotional ties that, that causes with someone you love because you have to have loved him to have chosen him to be worthy of your V card after waiting so long, is large. Length of time together doesn't matter, 2 months or 2 weeks. I waited a long time to lose my V card and like Sasha it was a big statement. A big statement of commitment and love, in her eyes, he is hers and she is his so she has equal rights in this relationship. I hope that Sasha receives the same HEA as I did with my one and only.
I understand that his sister is hurt but he did not think this through at all. I hope that he will come to his senses soon and that Sasha will be able to come through this huge emotional blow.

Feeling sad for Sasha. She is being put through it lol

Anxiously waiting for the next update

The authors on this site are amazing. I would be highly annoyed with the over critical opinions of my characters and incomplete story. Just enjoy the story or move on, it's not even over yet. Analyze the story more deeply when it's over.
This is why one of my favorite authors pulled all of her stories and will not post them to this site again until the stories are all the way done to avoid this reaction :(

People are double reviewing and jumping on I disagree/agree bandwagons because they don't like what other reviewers have said, reviewers who are entitled to their opinion by the way, it's not that deep. Give your opinion about the chapter and keep it moving.

Great chapter. I can't wait to see what you come up with next. I hope that Sasha will be strong. Writing was great, I hope that you will write over Thanksgiving break :) I also will be enjoying my break from school as well.

Best.

After reading some reviews, I'm adding to mine. 

I didn't get to Dimitri earlier. He's an ass. He was wrong for speaking to Sasha the way he did in the bath tub. He could have been a little less harsh with her; neverheless, I'm not angry at him for the way he spoke to her at the hospital. The man's siter is in the hospital because the woman he's daiting, who he personally asked not to get in his family affair, is directly responisible for the person he loved most in the world being in the hospital. Sasha shouldn't have called Nadia. It wasn't her place. She barely knows Dimitri. In what universe did she think it was okay to get involved with his family affairs? 

When you marry someone, you marry into that person family, well, they aren't married. They are barely in a relationship. Dimitri doesn't know how to be in a relationship, so he can't give Sasha or any other woman what she might need. Dimitri also needs to see a therapist. 

Also, why is no one else bothered by the fact that Sasha lied to Nadia? Nadia is a bitch, but that doesn't excuse Sasha lying to her in order to get her to the restaurant. And Sasha mainly did that because she thought that if Dimitri and Nadia made uo, then she and Dimitri would makeup. 

*smh* 

Almost every character in this story needs to see shrink. You have your work cut out for you in order to make their reunion viable. It will take a skilled writer to do it because you have two characters who aren't mentally ready to be in relationship: one expects too much too fast and the other gives little to none. 

Hello my dearest- So don't mind my little rant/vent, it really is given out of love. I promise! :)

So I've been following this story from the begininng because I really love your writing and this story. It flows organically and I just got sucked in. Your characters have all been through a lot and the emotions are very moving.

The only thing that makes all the drama a bit unbelievable is that everyone seems to have become a bit one-dimensional. Sasha is the wallflower who has gone through sooo much, but lets herself be bullied and disrepected because she feels that maybe she deserves it?? I don't know. She loves hard and doesn't know how to have balanced love.

Dmitry is a arrogant, self-absorbed chauvinist who thinks it's ok to speak to his girlfriend any type of way. But he's sexy so we're supposed to forgive him? He's really still a boy who lets himself be manipulated by sister and father.

Sasha's friend are simply her friends, pretty standard there.

Nadia is a spoiled b**** who gets what she wants and feels like she can act or say anything without consequences.

Nicholai is a uber rich powerful man with a God complex, obsessed with control and doesn't know how to love his kids.

Everyone's personalities have become a bit predicatable. Like I was surprised with Sasha's wisdom and calm collected behavior when they were in the tub. As she was telling her story I felt for her there and was proud that she opened up to him. She sounded mature and totally relatable. But she ruined that when kept pushing and nagging the already distressed and angry man.

And this guy... I don't care how gorgeous he is and how much she admired her body when he got out of the tub, she just took the verbal abuse and slipped into bed with him?? Wanting to reach out and touch him?? That whole scene made me cringe.

I mean she damn sure has her own place to go to, to let things cool down and he didn't even apologize for talking to her that way. I don't really see the attraction in Dmitry anymore. He's ALWAYS been completely self-absorbed. At the same time his character has been very vague, like we don't know WHY he's sooo adamant against his father, all this because of his sister? I don't think so. You mentioned that his mom passed and his dad didn't know how to deal with it, but I was left wanting more. If we would know a bit more about his past maybe I would understand why he reacted sooo harsh and downright cray-cray. 

And THEN after the verbal beating Sasha took she deliberately took it upon herself to reach out to nasty Nadia... even after Dmitry flat out told her to let it go. I don't get that part. Why in the world would she do that? It doesn't make sense. It wouldve been different if Sasha happen to bump into Nadia somewhere and couldn't help herself in talking to her and then the drama ensued. I just wished there would be a bit more well-rounded view into their personalities. That way the reader would be a bit more torn about Sasha and Dmitry's decisions, that way we might not agree but we understand why they acted the way they did.

So sorry to have gone on and on. I hope I was clear or hopefully helpful? Lol Maybe that's a good sign when you have these strong reactions from your loyal readers :) At any rate keep writing! I really really need to see what happens next. No like really... I need to know! Lol

-p2p-

Also, I completely agree with Cholyn. While Dmitri was a dick, Sasha had NO business butting into his family life. They hadn't even been dating that long, and Dmitri is already seriously guarded. He shouldn't have spoken to her that way, but his baby sister was in the hospital, and the guy is human. He was going to lash out. Sasha is naive as hell and needs to grow up. This relationship was a bit too mature for her. She has zero self esteem. That does not make for a healthy relationship. That girl needs to build herself up--independently from a man.

OMG, Dimitri is a jerk. He's completely allowing his stupid family to manipulate him. He could have had that conversation with her in private. I feel really bad for Sasha. Although I think she should have left it alone, what she was doing came from a good place. He should know she wasn't trying to hurt Nadia. If he comes crawling back to her, she better not take him back so easily, if she takes him back at all. Please update soon because I cannot wait to see what happens next.

Two words F**k this 

Excuse my french this once beautiful relationship just feel apart before my very eyes and through it all I was hyperventilating trying to get my bearings because I am SHOCKED!

Lawdddd I last left the story in the tub I thought it was a happy moment until Sasha opened her big mouth and then it just went downhill 

All I know is I can not wait for the next chapter and I can't say I feel sorry for Sasha she strecthed her importance in Dimitri's life a little too much for me I did not like her one bit in this chapter a damn shame cause usally its the guys that we women are outraged with but for me thats not the case here

These Vikhrov's are a nasty family, Sasha better find her way with another man lol and I'm sorry for this long rant I justreally enjoy this story

Update soon please! :) 

This chapter really made me cry I felt so bad for Sasha :(  Dmitri is an a-hole and Sasha deserves someone much better than that insecure little boy 

not gonna lie, Sasha is kind of brain dead. And the Vikhrov's are a nasty bunch... I hope she gets a clue, and soon!

well i just hope that sasha doesn't turn into some crazy stalker 

Great chapter. I can't say I was surprised at the turn of events because the blowout between Sasha and Dimitri was bound to happen eventually. 

Sasha has some deep seeded abandonment and self-worth issues that she needs to address immediately. Instead of working on her own issues, she's taken it upon herself to be the savior for Dimitri and his family. A role he never asked nor wanted her to fill. Also, she is so consumed with wanting to be loved that she can't stop to see that Dimitri is incapable of loving her the way she deserves. The first hint should have been when she said "I love you" at the party and he totally ignored it. I think she really needs to seek professional help to work through her issues so she can learn to love herself enough not to allow others to treat and disrespect her the way Dimitri and some of her friends have. Once she's able to do this, she'll be able to move on. The best form of revenge is moving on and finding happiness because trust me, Dimitri will realize his mistake at some point and want Sasha back.  

As for Dimitri, he has his own issues to deal with. He wants so badly to believe he is not being controlled by his father and that he is above him. But, in fact he is just like him. The way he treated and spoke to Sasha was a clear example of that. He needs to work out his family issues before he will ever be successful in a relationship. 

Poor Sasha!!!

I feel so bad for her. She loves Dmitri and only wanted to help. They are in a relationship so, she should be able to say and do what she wants without worrying about Dmitry turning into a 5 year old because she has a different opinion or doesn't blindly does what he says like a spineless woman would.
Married or not doesn't matter especially now since a lot of women are fine with out of wedlock kids and no real commitment (ie. marriage). The point of dating is to eventually have a committed relationship so I have no problem with her trying to help someone that she loves, I would too rather he likes it or not.
That is normal behavior. Dmitry is not valuing her as a potential partner or her love for him.
Just because he said to drop it doesn't mean that she should or have to like a child whose father has grounded her, that is crap.
Dmitry was in the wrong and I would be done with him and his crazy ass family. She has already put up with enough without Dmitry being man enough to put the people who deserve in their place, his family, not Sasha.
Sasha is a good woman but Dmitry is not a strong or good man. He needs to overcome a lot to be ready to be with someone like Sasha. The back and forth in these reviews are ridiculous, I'll stick to just reading your updates lol.

Good chapter and I look forward to seeing what you have in mind for these two.
