"Why would you think that?" Aiden asked, his brows furrowed in concern. "You believe someone from Russia followed you here and targeted Roger instead, just because you two live together?"
Varya gave a small nod. "Why not? I have enemies... ones I hoped I'd left behind. I need to check the CCTV footage from our apartment complex. Maybe I'll find something there," she said determinedly, wiping the corner of her eye. "Stay here with him," she added firmly despite the tremor in it.
"You don't have to go anywhere," came a deep voice from the doorway.
Both Aiden and Varya turned sharply to see Lucius standing there. He walked in and his jaw clenched as his eyes landed on Roger lying helplessly on the hospital bed, and his fists clenched at his sides.
"Zayne is already on his way," Lucius continued. "We'll handle the investigation. For all we know, the enemy could be from Italy, not Russia."
