SPOILERS AHEAD:
This was a highly anticipated read for me. After Chaos, I knew Nikolai had a story and that it was gonna be good! Well, Caged did not disappoint.
Mila/Melissa is tasked with retrieving goods for a very dangerous man. she hoped it would be a quick in and out job. Especially because this dangerous man is holding her brother as leverage, and is torturing him a little each day that she is gone. She did not anticipate that her heart would be on the line.
Nikolai is a grumpy single dad. he lost his wife a few years ago at the hands of a person who should want to protect his children, not ruin them with tragedy and pain. He is devoted to his sweet little girl, Elena and wills top at nothing to protect her and keep her away from his lifestyle. He is Jax's brother-in-law, Mikhail and Lara's siblings and Alexei may not be related by blood, but is considered a brother as well. He is also the one in possession of the goods Mila/Melissa is hired to retrieve.
Mila plays the part of a damsel in distress, Melissa, hoping this will bring her close enough to Nikolai and get the goods. However he has his guard up and is not easy to crack. Until one day, Melissa allows a little bit of Mila's dark side to be exposed:
"Before I know what I’m doing, my hand is laced around her throat and her back is against the wall. “Is this what you wanted?” I whisper against her lips.
“Are you going to be a good girl for me?” he says with a smirk…. “I’m not a good girl, Nikolai.” …. “There’s a difference between being a good girl, and my good girl. You’ll soon learn that.”
Elena is smitten with Mila. Nikolai falls hards for Mila as he sees how much she cares bout and for his daughter. his daughter's happiness means everything to him, and he hasn't seen her smile and laugh the way she does when she's with Mila, in a very long time.
They begin a passionate relationship, however the guilt slowly eats away at Mila. She knows that once Nikolai finds out the truth about her, he could very well kill her. The opportunity arrises to retrieve the goods. she knows this could be the end of their relationship, and wuite possibly her life. but how could she give up on her brother?
Nikolai learns of the betrayal in a violent way.
the revelation rips his heart into a million pieces. a heart he had guarded, caged, so heavily. After losing his wife, he didn't think he'd ever be able to love again. He took a risk with Mila and now he wishes he never had laid eyes on her.
"How can you hate someone so violently, yet love them so passionately at the same time?"
Without giving too much away, a series of events leads Nikolai to realize that not everything is as it seems and Mila has made sacrifices on his and his daughter's behalf. he learns the truth about who she is and how she feels and he is determined get her back into his life.
“Everyone comes into your life to teach you a lesson. You broke into my mine to tear my heart from its cage and claim it as your own. You taught me how to love, Mila. And I don’t want to stop.”
Nikolai and Mila's story is intense, passionate and raw.
Nikolai's experience of grief is no where near as tragic as Jax's in Chao, however you are given a picture of the heartache and pain he experienced when he lost his wife. It's beautifully sad. He honours his late wife in in little ways with big meaning. His love for Elena is so sweet. he is firm yet gentle with her.
We are also given more insights into Mikhail, Enzo, Lara and Alexei, and a new person is introduced, who i have a sinking feelings is far more important that it lead on in the book.
As always, Luna Mason delivers an incredible story and i cannot wait for the next instalment of this series. September feels like a long ways away...
