I Surrender to Them
I finished, looking toward Darya, who was coming down the stairs at that moment with Yakov and Vasily right behind her.
My daughter looked beautiful. Her curly blonde hair tied in a high ponytail, cheeks rosy from the cold on the porch where she’d been playing earlier. At twelve, she was already showing signs of the woman she would become — strong, determined, with my eyes and Heros’s posture.
“Michael’s coming today?” she asked, trying to sound casual, but I caught the spark in her green eyes. That dangerous spark I knew all too well.
“Yes,” I answered, keeping my voice neutral. “He’ll stay for a while for training.”
