Chapter 27
THE LATE AFTERNOON BREEZE was welcome in the heat as Cheyenne sat in one of the cafés, hearing the ice clink in her glass as she gently swirled it around. She wore a white, tight dress and she looked stunning after the salon tan that morning. Alexi looked fresh in his light suit. She wondered if he was going to retire soon, spend most of his time here. Maybe she could plant some seeds in that direction. Moscow was too challenging for an optimal wardrobe of sleeveless, tight dresses and strappy heels. Cheyenne just wasn’t a girl for winter. It was the most useless season of all—completely pointless.
Cheyenne sighed and smiled as Alexi took another call, again speaking in Russian, ordering someone or other around. He hadn’t said how long he was staying this time around. Looking around, Cheyenne spotted some of the other people in the café. It was right on the waterfront, charging enough for drinks and meals to keep the mere tourists out.
She saw a few ladies-who-lunch in their Dolce and Gabbana or Versace designer clothes, chatting over drinks in the late afternoon while the nannies took care of the kids. She would be one of those women one day, the ones without a care in the world. If only Alexi would make an honest woman of her.
Other people at the café included some retired Brits, the odd dour Scandinavian couple and an American movie producer, sitting with some up and coming actress. Cheyenne wondered if she would have been successful going that route, but it had seemed like too much work. As much as she wanted Alexi to adore her, she really had no interest in fame, taking much more work and carried too many risks. Obviously, she had the looks for it and at times there had been that interest to catch some producer’s eye away from some vying girl, but it was pure competitiveness over any real interest in that industry.
Alexi finally hung up, placing the phone back in his pocket. Everything he did was so measured and precise. She never really saw him cut lose—other than sex, where he was still perfectly in control. She ran her foot up the inside of his calf. Maybe there was room for an early evening session before dinner.
Leaning forward, she twisted the swizzle stick in her glass, pulling it out to suck every last drop off it. “So, I suppose you have to find a new serving girl for the boat. Such an inconvenience. I can organise it for you, if you like.”
“No, it’s okay. No change.”
Cheyenne blinked repeatedly. Apparently, there was a little snag in her plan. “Uhm, I thought you had to get rid of her.” Maybe the little bitch was sucking off Alexi to keep him sweet.
“She said she didn’t do nothing wrong.”
“I saw her,” Cheyenne said more harshly, watching Alexi intently. Obviously, they had spoken. Alexi had confronted her and she had denied the charges. “Of course she would say she didn’t do anything wrong, but I know what I saw.
