CHAPTER 23

Rosalia

On Christmas morning, I’m driving over to Mykhail’s apartment complex in the Loop with a huge smile plastered on my face. Logan’s opening up to me more, and my love for him grows with every mystery about him that I unravel. On top of that, now that Dimitri’s been caught, maybe Mykhail can start rebuilding his life.

I grab a bag filled with presents from the back seat before walking to the entrance and pressing the buzzer. Climbing up to the second floor, I see Adam’s little frame waiting for me at the door.

“Rosa!” he exclaims, eyeing the wrapping paper. He’s the only one that calls me Rosa besides Logan.

“Hey, sweetie. Merry Christmas!” I bend down to scoop him up.

He wraps his thin arms around my neck as I kick the door shut behind me. Moving through the hall into the quaint living room that’s decorated with a medium sized tree, I toss Adam onto the cream couch, next to Mykhail.

“Merry Christmas, Rosalia,” Mykhail greets me, pointing toward the abundance of presents. “You’re spoiling him.”

“He deserves to be spoiled.”

“He does,” Mykhail agrees.

“Santa’s told me that you’ve been a good boy.” I open the bag, and Adam slides off the couch to peek inside.

He nods eagerly. “I brushed my teeth all by myself,” he says, showing his tiny, clean teeth.

“That’s amazing,” I compliment him, taking out one present and handing it over.

Clapping, he accepts it.

Mykhail then reminds Adam, “What do we say, Adam? Thank...”

“Thank you,” Adam mumbles, tearing open the red paper and finding a train set. “Yay!”

“I have much more.” I empty the bag onto the floor, and Adam rummages around through the presents with delight as I sit down next to Mykhail.

“So, any updates?” he probes.

“Your father’s going to be handed over to the FBI. Logan didn’t tell me anything about you, and I couldn’t press the matter. But I do think that if Dimitri is sentenced, they’ll just leave you alone. They only wanted you to help them catch him. I believe I know the Syndicate’s men well enough to presume that if you aren’t a direct risk, they won’t be searching for you anymore.”

Mykhail exhales in relief. “Thank God. I’m going stir crazy cooped up in this apartment with Adam all day. I need to enroll him in preschool, and I also need to start attending classes again.”

“We have to wait a few weeks for everything to settle down. Then I can talk to my father and Logan. I’ll explain how I’ve run into to you on campus, and you’re my friend, and you won’t be a problem for them. We can’t have them discover that I helped you hide. Anyway, it doesn’t matter now.” I’m just too afraid I’ll lose Logan if it becomes known.

“Yeah, you’re right. Thank you so much for everything, Rosalia.”

“You’re welcome. I’d do anything for this little guy.” I tickle Adam.

He arranges himself in my lap while inspecting every inch of his new train and making train noises.

“Who wants hot cocoa?” I suggest.
