KATERINA

The tub feels ice cold by the time I drag myself from it. Drying my body off, I pause to study myself in the mirror. My belly is starting to round out now—not much, but noticeable to me. I smile at the sight, turning from side to side to get the full picture. What a shame that this dream-like state is cloaked by the dreary reality that brought it to me.

I'm wrapped in a thick blue cotton robe, lying on my bed, when someone taps their knuckles on my door.

"Come in," I answer.

Sasha leans inside. The moment he sees my bare legs, he freezes, heat swimming in his hungry stare. "Can we talk?"

Crossing my ankles, I try to bury my own rush of excitement. I'm all too familiar with the animalistic hunger in his expression. And if I'm being honest, I feel it as well, even though I try to deny myself from him.

It's been weeks since we've been together, and my body is buzzing at the thought of being with him. Fighting back the urges inside me, I clear my throat.

"What's up?"

    SASHATHE MEETING IS ARRANGED QUICKLY. Calling Fabiola was the first hurdle, because as soon as she heard from Katerina, neither of them could talk between the shouting and crying. It took longer than expected for her to convince Josh to escort her to my mansion.Evidently, he's not as sold on seeing Katerina in person as Fabiola is. I suspect seeing her is a reminder that his way failed, and not because he was unable to protect her. It makes me respect him a lot less. But this isn't about him.The meeting was supposed to start ten minutes ago. But for the last fifteen minutes, Fabiola has clutched Katerina in her arms, alternating between crying and chiding her."I thought you were dead!" she sobs for what seems like the millionth time.Smiling indulgently, Katerina pets her hair. She catches my eye, and I give her a look. We're running short on time here. She fixes me with one of her own that tells me to relax. But it's hard for me to do that.Especially because Josh keeps tapping h

    KATERINASETTLING ON TOP OF HIM, my thighs on either side of his hips, I tease his shaft behind my back. I'm fascinated by his face. His expression is one of wanton joy. I can feel his hands tighten their grip against mine, as if he's on the verge of fighting me for control.Suddenly, I feel nervous. I'm too aware of my belly and how it's starting to protrude. The bump is subtle, but at this angle, I can see it clearly. The pregnancy is starting to change me, and although I have never been a shallow person, I'm feeling very much not in my own skin.What is he thinking? He said I was beautiful, but ...Sasha speaks, interrupting my thoughts. "Stop it."I startle. "What?""Stop doubting yourself," he replies. "I can see it in your eyes. You're thinking about how you look. Stop it."Blushing, I do the opposite and think more. I release his hands and circle my arms around to block his view of my naked body.Sasha snarls, gripping my wrists to force my hands away."Sasha—""Never hide your

    SASHAIF I COULD LIVE the rest of my life with my hands never leaving Katerina's body, I would. The space between us—tiny as it is—is pure agony. It leaves me feeling cold, as if I'm being covered in black frost. But I have to endure the distance for a few seconds longer, just enough time that I can slip the Rolex watch onto her wrist again.Katerina lifts her arm and looks at the glittering watch with an inscrutable expression in her eyes. Seeing it on her wrist again slows my heartbeat somewhat. It looks right. It feels right. And I can't help feeling the same thought that rushed through my head during our wedding:Somewhere along the way, Katerina became mine.Not just as something to possess, but as someone to treasure.To shield.To protect.To love.The thought goads me to action. I close the tiny gap between us, positioning myself over her on the bed. As soon as I do, I embrace her again, tightening my grip around her back and waist."God, I missed you," I whisper into her hair

    KATERINAIn a guest bedroom, Dr. Helsan opens his suitcase. Within minutes, he converts the space into a mini-office. The long table is used to hold a variety of packaged items, and a surgery gown is draped across the bed."Go and get changed," Dr. Helsan instructs me.Sasha hovers anxiously in the corner while I change. He keeps his eyes away, not peeking at my brief nudity. We're functioning like strangers instead of worried parents-to-be."Please lie down," the doctor says.I do exactly that, settling on the blanket. I try to relax, but it's impossible. Lying down now, I'm made aware of just how tense I am. My spine is static, and my leg muscles cramp as I shift around. Dr. Helsan approaches with the small, familiar fetal Doppler.I've done this already, I think, but not with Sasha. The thought hits me harder than I expect—I've heard our baby's heartbeat. He hasn't.Sasha looks across at me. There's a wordless question he won't dare speak. Like ice in the glare of a radiant sun, I

    KATERINAI DON'T HAVE a home anymore.That's the only thought running through my head as I stare up at the familiar sight of Sasha's mansion. The car rumbles along the driveway. The spiked gates look exactly as I remember. The yards with trimmed grass, the distant rose garden, the extravagant water fountains, and the perfect painted exterior ...Nothing has changed since I was here.But I have.Both Yevgeniy and my mother are vying for my attention inside my head. Each of them whispers their own warning in the back of my mind.He was supposed to keep my boy safe. And instead, he killed him.Our monsters may wear different faces. But they're the same.I want to silence the voices in my head, but I can't.Once we park, Sasha clambers out to help me from the car. I ignore him to step out on my own. A wave of déjà vu washes over me. It feels just like the first time I arrived here. I rejected his offer that time as well. The only thing missing is the blindfold he placed over my eyes.His
