Iknow enough about driving a manual transmission now to take one of the cars Pasha bought for me and drive it out of his silly little mansion. I’m so done with him that it’s not even funny. I don’t want to ever see him or hear his voice ever again.

I know he won’t give up on me that easily, but if he does, I’ll have proved that he wasn’t worth all the promises he made. Only a real man can handle me, and Pasha clearly isn’t one.

“Fucking prick,” I mutter, flying down the winding road toward the front gate. The sun is just starting to rise on the horizon, and I can see the guards behind the iron gate, already opening it for me. I guess it’s easier to get out than it is to get in.

Not that I’ll ever be coming back here. I’m officially done with Pasha. He wants the best from me, which I understand, but whenever I show him anything else, he gets angry and freaks out.

First the cocaine, now for not wanting to talk about my sister’s death. He doesn’t understand my reasoning for either of them, or how closely they’re tied together.

Right now, all I want to do is defy him, so I drive down to the south side of town, as deep into his brother’s territory as I can get, and find a club where I know they’ll have drugs. Anything open at this hour will be crawling with dealers.

There’s an old brick building with red lights on upstairs that I know will have what I’m looking for. I’ve convinced myself this is about giving a middle finger to Pasha, but going this deep into Anatoly’s territory when I’m alone is downright dangerous. The only reason I’m doing this is because I have a problem controlling myself.

I feel like I need to get high. Nothing else will soothe me the way that drug-induced euphoria will.

Maybe aside from sex with Pasha, but that’s not happening anymore. I don’t care about his weird plans to put a baby in me. I never asked him to do that, and I have every right to veto that decision.

I place my hand on my belly, praying there’s not a child growing inside me already as I park the car beside the old brick building. I hear music coming from inside the brittle brick walls, and I feel at home.

But there’s something in me telling me not to go in there. I’m reluctant to get out of the car. Not only am I a target for Pasha’s brother, but seeking out drugs and doing them makes me a horrible person if I’m already pregnant.

But it hasn’t been that long. I can’t already be pregnant…

And what if I am?

I hate that this is even a decision I have to make. I shouldn’t be trying to find coke at six in the morning, anyway. No normal person would be sitting out here in a supercar with all the money in the world, trying to find some sleazy drug dealer to get her high.
