Chapter 81: Better Call Saul

SCARLETT

Two weeks later.

I'm trying not to be weepy about the fact that Viktor is off to Russia. I won't see him for at least eight more weeks, and as much as I put on the bravado and acted like things could never work between us, I really want them to.

I like him. And not just because he's hot and sexy and amazing in bed. That's an excellent bonus, of course, but mostly, I just feel really comfortable around him. Safe. Now that I know he's not in the mafia, not a gambling addict, and not throwing championship games for money, of course. I'm missing him terribly and it's only been a few short days since our memorable "goodbye" in a utility closet at the Tangiers.
