Chapter 163 Gavril

• Gavril
• She snorted. “It’s my job not to like her, Gavril. You are my son, and no woman will ever be good enough for you. I will treat your sisters’ future husbands the same way.” She drew in a breath. “But I didn’t think then and I don’t think now that Sve—Naomi—would ever betray you. There is fire in her, even if she isn’t Russian.”
• I sucked in my own breath, the pain nearly unbearable now that my mother had made me see the truth of what Naomi felt about me. I had done some shitty things in my life, but losing the one person that mattered to me in my life right now was unforgivable. No matter what the fuck had happened between us, I couldn’t stand the fact that she wasn’t here and safe. I didn’t know what Hampton was doing to her or if she was still alive, and it was destroying me minute by minute.
