Chapter 22

Viktor

Luca and Mariya dragged me to Vancouver for the party Tessa is throwing for Nikolas.

I’m not happy. I’d rather stalk Rosalie via any camera I can get my hands on and spend time with Luna.

But here I am, getting off the private jet with my little sister giving me a look of warning. “If I catch you checking your phone, I will take it.”

“I’d like to see you try,” I mutter, knowing very well Mariya is more than capable of fighting me. She won’t win, but she’ll do enough damage to make me hurt.

When we were younger, I tried to subdue her so I could tickle her. I walked around with a busted lip and aching balls for a week. Needless to say, I never tried to tickle her again.

They all mean well. They’re trying to keep me occupied so that I won’t wallow in my heartache.

It’s also so I won’t kill the first person who pisses me off.

My hand itches to pull my phone out of my pocket so I can check the tracking device I had embedded in the rose pendant of the necklace I gave Rosalie.

When Luca takes hold of Mariya’s hand and she gives him a loving smile, I feel a jab of heartache.

I’d give everything I own to have that kind of relationship with Rosalie – to call her my wife.

My phone beeps, and I quickly yank it out.

“No!” Mariya snaps.

When she tries to reach for the device, I glare at her. “Touch it, and none of us will make it to the party.”

She gives me a disgruntled look. “You’re a sucker for punishment.”

I swipe on the screen, and seeing a text from Rosalie makes a smile spread over my face. I quickly tap on it.

I miss you too.

My fingers rush to type out a message.

Are you working through your emotions?

I watch as it shows she’s typing.

Rosalie: Yes.

Viktor: That’s good. And? Have you made any breakthroughs?

Rosalie: Yes. I just need a little more time.

Viktor: How’s the apartment? What’s the address? Do you need more money?

It doesn’t show that she’s typing as I climb into the back of the SUV.

We’re halfway to Nikolas’ place when a text finally comes through.

Rosalie: I have to go. I’ll be in touch soon.

Tilting my head, I stare at the words. An uneasy feeling settles in my gut because she didn’t give me the address of where she’s staying.

I quickly check her tracking device, and it shows she’s at the Sicilian restaurant again.

Maybe she got work there?

Still, why didn’t she tell me?

There’s a sinking feeling in my heart, thinking she doesn’t want me to know where she’s living because she doesn’t trust me.

That fucking sucks.

If Rosalie can’t trust me, then we’ll never find our way back to each other. Without trust, there’s nothing.

“What’s wrong?” Luca asks.

I shake my head and tuck my phone back into my pocket. Staring out the window, I notice we’re turning into the street where Aphrodite is. Nikolas opened the club as a front to smuggle arms from Gabriel, who’s based in Seattle.
