Chapter 13

Grace held on to Logan’s hand as they stepped off the elevator onto the fiftieth floor of the Serafina. She’d never been up here before and he’d had to use a specific key card to access the floor, bypassing all others. She felt a little out of place as they passed various men and women wearing sharp-looking black pants, black jackets and crisp white button-downs. Though none of them wore overt nametags saying they worked here, it was all very uniform.

In contrast, she was wearing jeans, ankle boots, and a long-sleeved peasant blouse with oversized hoop earrings and a jangle of bracelets. She’d left her jacket in Logan’s rental truck.

As they approached two glass doors in the middle of a whole wall of tinted glass, they immediately swished open, letting them into what turned out to be a huge security area.

She looked around in fascination at the wall of video screens as a low hum of voices filled the air. She’d known that of course the casino had something like this, but seeing it in person was even more impressive than she’d imagined.

Iris Christiansen—a fierce and tall, stunning woman who Grace knew was the head of security and one of Logan’s bosses—strode up to them and gave Grace a small smile. “Grace, good to see you again, though I wish it was under different circumstances.” She briefly shook hands with Logan before motioning that they should follow her.

Moments later they were in a huge office with a wall of windows overlooking the city, making the space seem even bigger than it was.

Vadim looked up from the bank of computers at his desk—which had a cute picture of Angel and him on their wedding day—and nodded at Logan before smiling warmly at Grace. He stood from his desk and gave her a quick hug, which seemed to surprise Logan, if his frown was any indication. She wasn’t sure why though—Logan knew they were friendly.

“It’s good to see you,” she said as he sat back down. “Angel texted me a picture of what you got her for Christmas. It’s beautiful.” The man had given his wife a gorgeous necklace with an angel charm made of diamonds and rose gold. Apparently he hadn’t been able to wait until Christmas. Which made him that much more adorable.

He rubbed the back of his head. “I’m just glad she likes it.”

“Oh she loves it. She’s been showing it off to everyone.”

This seemed to please him more. He cleared his throat and motioned toward his desk. “I looked into what you told me,” he said to Logan before focusing all his attention on the screens and his keyboard.

Grace watched in fascination as various images popped up, both of her ex, Kevin, and of Austin Brister.

“I can’t find anything on Brister here in Vegas. Though to be more specific, no images here in Vegas but also no images anywhere else recently. So it’s possible he’s holed up somewhere and going on a bender like his people in Montana seem to think.
