    Summary

    There are many things that are absolute truths, immutable and indisputable facts. Fire burns you if you touch it. Water boils at a certain temperature. Oxygen becomes rarer with altitude. Ivan is not dead.

    Ivan disappears and everyone is convinced that he is dead. Too bad for those losers, Till will bring him home himself.

    Summary

    Summary

    “If — ” Ivan’s voice came out strangled, he swallowed thickly and tried again, “if this is about my father’s company, you’re wasting your time. I don’t have access to anything sensitive.”

    “No, baby. That's not what I’m after.”

    “Then what the hell do you want?"

    The man grinned, like he was glad Ivan had asked. Like he enjoyed Ivan asking. “I don’t give a shit about who your family is. I want you. And look at that,” he gestured lazily at Ivan’s bound form at his feet, “you’re already mine.”

    ivan was the kind of man who'd made a living out of analyzing risks. every moment of his day, every decision he ever made, was carefully considered. he was safe. he was in control. he was unshakable.

    despite his diligence, he still found himself tied up in a stranger's basement.

    Summary

    Ivan didn’t dignify his retort with an answer. His fingers brushed over the leather on his sheath.

    “Touch him again,” Ivan’s voice came out flat. Not a threat. Not a request.

    His thoughts reprimanded him; telling him not here, Ivan ignored it.

    He just needed a reason.

    Till sniffled, pain blooming into a headache as he cradled his forehead. Freddie cackled, finding his discomfort funny. He lunged forward, his arm shooting out ready to gather a fistful of Till’s hair.

    Ivan got his reason.

    His katana made a sharp, clean sound as it withdrew from his waist. It happened so fast, no one processed the motion–until Freddie’s arm was rolling on the floor and blood was gushing out of where it used to be.
