UNDONE

“All these truths can sometimes be deceiving,

When your whole world comes crashing to the ground.”

Performed by Lifehouse

Written by Jason Wade

I woke after only a handful of hours, went out for a run, checked my messages from Nolan―who basically told me to get the fuck back to the U.S.―and then went in search of the Russian princess and her guard. She and Ilia were in her father’s office, not even being subtle about the fact that they were searching it. I rolled my eyes to the ceiling.

Raisa stopped as I approached, glancing at the jeans, button-down shirt, and jacket I’d thrown on after my shower. More clothes from Alexia’s.

“Nice way of keeping our search a secret,” I said sarcastically.

“I told Mama and Rurik that Papa’s attorney had called and asked me to find the new will he’d created for Papa,” she said defiantly.

I paused. “Is there a new will?”

She shrugged and went back to the file cabinet and the drawer she was perusing.

“It won’t be just lying around,” I said with a sigh.

“Hiding in plain sight. Papa said sometimes the simpler things were the ones people overlooked.” She rose from her bent position at the file cabinet, studied the room, and tugged at the locket on her neck.

I was just going to reply when Volkov walked in, his eyes taking in every inch of the room and then landing on me with suspicion. He hadn’t bought Raisa’s story about the will. I was sure he knew I’d told her about the SD card, but he didn’t bring it up.

“Damien said he was going to see you in St. Petersburg. Did you run into him yesterday?” he asked Raisa.

If I hadn’t just spent the last few days examining her every movement, I would have missed the beat of hesitation she gave before she answered. “No. Antonne and I were doing all the touristy things. I doubt he would have found that entertaining.”

I glanced at Volkov, and my stomach twisted, hoping he hadn’t seen the hesitation as I had. He turned to me, hands going to his pockets, and he rocked a little on his feet. He tilted his head, indicating I should follow him, and I did. In the hall, he turned toward me.

“My son is missing,” he said quietly.

I didn’t react. “Have you checked the dump? Someone as trashy as him is sure to turn up there.”

Volkov’s eyes narrowed, but he didn’t rise to my bait. Instead, he demanded, “He went to see her. We both know you wouldn’t like that. So, what happened?”

“We didn’t see your son,” I told him. I met his gaze with a steely one. I didn’t glance away once.

He stepped closer. “If I find out you’ve done something to him, I’ll make sure she is cut from neck to toe while you watch.”

I wanted to do the same thing to him that I’d done to his son for threatening her. I wanted to slam him up against the wall, choke him until he passed out, and then tie him up with chains so thick you couldn’t cut through them without special tools.
