Fuck those two. Sasha will remain on night duty indefinitely.
She spends the night right outside my room. I’d prefer it if she were inside, but she refuses. Because she’s carefully keeping her distance.
Except for when it’s time to fight.
That’s when the fire inside her blazes, and she turns into an entirely different creature.
She has the determination of a cat who has an attention span of twenty seconds. Every day, she forgets that she was defeated and jumps back into the ring for more.
Is she making progress? Yes. Will she be able to defeat me anytime soon? Probably not.
This is starting to become more routine than anything else. The highlight of my day isn’t trying to form any type of alliance or slowly stripping the control Konstantin has over some of the clubs.
It’s being in that ring, waiting for Sasha to appear with her defiant expression.
I’m about to head there when Viktor appears in front of the office door like a damn ghost.
“Make some noise, would you?” I start down the hall, and he falls in step beside me.
“Igor is requesting to meet with you.”
“Why?”
“Didn’t say. He wants you at his house tonight.”
“Hmm. Tell him I’ll be there.”
That old man was one of the most eager to have me, instead of Konstantin, take over. I’m sure it has something to do with old-fashioned rules, where the eldest son should inherit his father’s legacy.
“Copy that. Since you’ll be busy tonight with the meeting, should we head to the club now?”
“No, I have a training session.”
“With Lipovsky?”
“Why is that voiced as a question when you know the answer?”
“I don’t trust him, Boss.”
“Why not?”
“He’s just…suspicious.”
“What a massive argument you have there, Viktor.”
“You know it, too. He’s been getting close to the young lady.”
I stop in the middle of the hall. “Karina?”
“Yes. She lets him into her room and asks Anna to prepare snacks for them.”
“Why is that bad news? In fact, it’s good that she lets anyone into her chamber of horrors. EvenIam not allowed in there most of the time.”
“Seriously?”
“What?”
“He could take advantage of her, Boss.”
