*Tallon*
When I returned, I wasn’t surprised to find that Natalia wasn’t home. There was a hastily written addendum to my note telling me that she went to dinner with Mia.
I was glad that the two of them were becoming fast friends, but given the circumstances, I was very worried that she had left.
She had her driver nearby and she was being monitored to keep her safe, but I had already decided that I would need to step up her personal security. We had no idea what was going on, and it was possible that, given her family ties to the Russians, Natalia could be targeted by this killer.
Just the thought was enough to make my stomach turn. I thought that the fact that she was no longer part of the Russian family may not matter to whoever was responsible for these killings. She was still Russian and the granddaughter of Dimitri. If someone was trying to piss off the leadership, hurting Natalia might just do it.
