Maxim lets out a chuckle. “And you decided fucking her would be the best course of action? Why?”

“Christ, it’s hard to explain,” I grumble as I slump down on a sofa. “She’s full of sass and strives to drive me insane.”

“Yeah, I still don’t understand why you decided to fuck her and why it’s a problem.”

I take a couple of deep breaths, and closing my eyes, I admit, “I care about her.”

“Oh.” More silence follows my words, then finally, Maxim asks, “How much do you care about her?”

“Too much. I fucking asked Viktor to cancel the hit he had out on her.”

“Hold on,” my friend almost chokes. “Last time I checked, there were two active hits. Which one are we talking about?”

“Abigail Sartori.”

Abigail fucking Sartori.

Christ.

I fucked her.

“You fucked Sartori’s daughter?” Maxim lets out a bark of laughter. “Jesus, now this story is getting good.”

“Fuck off,” I mutter.

My friend gets his laughter under control, then asks, “Again, why is this a problem?”

“Because I love my life the way it is, and I don’t need a woman destroying my routine.”

“Did you ever stop to think that just maybe a woman will add to the quality of your life?”

“Yeah, so tell me, why aren’t you married yet?” I sneer.

“Because I haven’t met the one.”

“Right.” I let out a sigh. “Abigail is a fucking handful. We’ll end up killing each other.”

“You don’t know that.”

“I do. No one has ever pissed me off as much as she does.”

“Why does she piss you off?”

“She fucking flirts like it’s a paying job and doesn’t take anything seriously.”

“Hey, opposites attract. With you being anal about your routine and where everything has to be, her ruffling things up might be a good change.”

I fall back against the sofa and let out a groan. “There’s an eighteen-year age gap between us. I’m old enough to be her father.”

“But you’re not her father,” Maxim states the obvious. “Age doesn’t fucking matter as long as both parties consent to the relationship.”

“You’re not fucking helping,” I bark.

“I’m not going to tell you what you want to hear, Nikolai. I think if you care about the woman, then you should give a relationship a try. The worst that can happen is you fuck her for a while and realize she’s not the one for you.”

Fucking her a couple of times won’t be enough.

It takes a lot out of me to be honest, as I say, “She’s already under my skin. If I let her in, there will be no getting her out.”
