But that won’t save her from me.
Oleg raises a brow as he watches her leave, then turns back to me.
He doesn’t say anything at first. Just looks at me.
I know that look.
And I don’t like it.
I step forward, voice low, warning. “Don’t open your mouth.”
Oleg exhales, shaking his head. “Isn’t she a little too young for you?”
My jaw tics.
I level him with a glare. “What did I just say?”

He shuts the door behind us and gestures toward his desk, where a laptop is open, displaying security footage.
“Got something interesting for you,” he says, leaning back against the desk. “Remember the parking lot incident?”
“Go on.”
Oleg taps a few keys, pulling up a new video feed. “This is from a traffic cam across the street. Took a little digging, but…”
