“Well, we’ll deal with the problem should any arise. Until then, let us celebrate, and I’ll have to find a way to exchange the pieces.”

“You’ll have to clean this one. He had it with his filthy possessions.” He nods, and we walk over to the birthday girl, who gasps when she sees me. That’s when I spot the friend. Fuck, I almost forgot about her. I quickly speak in a hushed Russian accent so that only Drago hears me.

He growls and responds in Russian as well. The one I suspected wasn’t the one; it’s the other girl, the one playing innocent in it all. It’s then that I focus on the young lady a little more and see that she’s been nervously checking her phone several times over the course of half an hour.

As the cake’s being served, I walk up to Natalya and greet her friend. “Hello. We haven’t met, have we? I’m Natalya’s godbrother, Ilya. You are?”

“I’m Jordan. Her bestie. We’re in school together and like, you’re so hot. Wow.” I study her and the tells are obvious.If I’d given this any thought, I would have noticed the threat sooner.

“Thank you.” I don’t compliment her because I won’t give her the satisfaction or risk hurting Natalya’s feelings. She looks at her phone, and I watch her swipe pattern as she unlocks it, although I don’t need it because I have the number from the bastard’s phone. All I need is Natalya’s.

“Having fun?” Princess says.

“Da. I was just getting acquainted with your friends,” I explain. She looks at me strangely, and I can sense that she’s afraid I’m interested in this treacherous whore.

“Natalya, can you walk me to my car?” Jordan asks.

“I’ll take up the task,” I offer.

“I can do it.”

“Nyet, Princess. You will join the rest of your guests.” Natalya gives me a death stare, but she doesn’t know what this bitch has planned, and I don’t trust her because I’ll snap her fucking neck and not think twice if she tries to harm a hair on my beauty’s head.

“Do you have your things?” I ask the woman.

“I do.” She doesn’t even bother to say goodbye to anyone. We walk out toward the front, and I don’t miss the eyes on me from my parents as well as Drago and his men. I’m certain he’s alerted them to be aware.

“You know. I think I forgot something inside.”

“What did you forget? I could have someone retrieve it.”

“I’ll message Natalya to bring it out. You can go back to the party.”

“Nyet, no. As of today, you will no longer have contact with her.”

“What? Why?”

“Because I know you’ve drugged her. I wasn’t sure which one of you it was, but she was pretty drugged earlier. Luckily, I worked most of it out of her system.” Natalya’s lust definitely simmered down after our little encounter, and she was given water only by her parents for the rest of the party.

“You can’t prove it was me, and you’ll be in Russia, slagging off with your whores.”

I lean in, holding on to the doorframe of her vehicle, and warn her. “I could snap your neck. It’s the last warning I’ll give you. Don’t cross me because there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for her.”

“Ilya,” Mrs. Romanov calls for me.

“Coming.” I slam her door closed and walk backward toward the house. I see Drago’s men watching the car.

“What are you doing out here, woman?” Drago snarls.

“Making sure she wasn’t trying to seduce our young Ilya.”

“She couldn’t, no matter how she tried.”

“Good.”

“Did you learn more?”

“Yes, she’s the one for sure. All I know is that she and that planner from yesterday were planning to kidnap Natalya.” Ishowed Drago and Rosalyn the texts, and she gasps. Drago pulls her to his side.
