CHAPTER SIXTEEN

November 14; 10:42 p.m.

Ian brushed his finger over Darya’s tear stained cheek. She’d cried herself back to sleep. He’d been talking to Rori in the living area, planning tomorrow when her whimpered cries and screams had brought them both running.

What did she see in her dreams? The nightmare she’d witnessed? More?

She hadn’t said more than that one word since yesterday. Zoy. Her sister? Someone else?

He took a deep breath and left the light on. She lay on her side, her purple pajamas with cats on them contrasting against the white sheets. Her arm was thrown over her bear. He looked to the side where a doll still sat in the box. She apparently just liked the bear.

Ian leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, breathing her scent deep. "Dobroy nochi. Devochka moya."--Good night, my little girl.

And by God, she would be. She already was.

He had never thought of having kids, never thought of having a family. Families could be used against men like him for any number of things.

But here, with this lost child clutching tight to the bear he’d given her, to see her eyes crying from phantoms that stalked her, to feel those little arms wrap around his neck.

He wanted her. He wanted her to be his.

"Sweet dreams."

He stood, double checked the windows and silently walked out of the room. Rori stood in the doorway, her arms crossed over her chest as she leaned on the doorframe.

Dressed in a white hotel robe, her long legs peeked at him where the terry cloth parted, one knee winking through. She seemed to be waiting for him.
