Dmitri and Nik escorted Galina back to her hotel room, walking her directly to the door as she threw the deadbolt from inside the room. She understood, they were both concerned. If she was being watched, then neither was safe. Nik already knew he wasn’t. She waited patiently for Nik to text that he was back at his condo, safe, before she could relax. While she truly enjoyed the touring of the city, it was much too dangerous. Nik had suggested they simply get out of town and drive through the countryside, but that made her a bit leery too. She’d seen enough movies to know that if the bad guys were after you, a car chase always happened. Why put yourself in harm’s way?

The next morning, Galina sighed heavily as she buckled her seatbelt and frowned at Nik. He’d insisted, and had packed a small picnic for them. He claimed that ‘no one should see only St. Petersburg, but rather a tourist should see all that Russia has to offer’.

“You know I think this is a bad idea,” she reiterated. “Have you ever seen a James Bond movie or any spy film? Unless you are going to tell me that you have rockets under the license plate or this beautiful car turns into a jet boat – then maybe we should hide out in town. Being alone on the road or on a picnic seems like we are inviting danger.”

“Did anyone ever tell you that you have an active imagination?” he chuckled, sliding into the driver’s seat. This time, Galina didn’t resist the urge to admire Nik and chalked it up to her espionage blood that was pumping full steam ahead. James Bond always kissed the pretty girls, maybe it was role reversal at its finest in real life? She was the spy, he was awfully handsome and nice to look at – now all he needed was a classic pun name and they’d have a hit movie on their hands!

Galina smothered a laugh at the stupid names she was coming up with for Nik in her head. There was no way she’d ever utter them aloud for anyone. They drove out of town and she saw all the buildings fall behind them, ahead just open road with trees lining the highway.

“Where are we headed for this impromptu picnic?”

“Towards the border of Finland and Russia. There’s a large beautiful lake up that way that I thought I’d show you.”

“That seems so odd to hear you say we are headed to Finland. I mean, that is like me saying, well we’ll have dinner in Virginia tonight. It’s a bordering state of Maryland and feels like nothing to me to say it.”

“Tell me about your home,” he asked, his voice curious and almost wistful.

“You’d love it,” she admitted. “There is so much to see and do there. I live near Washington D.C. and there are so many landmarks, so much history there. You could see the Lincoln Memorial, The
