Chapter 73 Sasha

• When I open her bedroom door, Katerina is facing away from it on her knees, her upper body under her bed. The sound of the door startles her; she jerks backward, banging her head on the wooden edge of the bedframe with a gasp. "Sasha!" Her eyes are wild with paranoia.
• She's terrified I found out about her plans. She thinks I'm going to stop her.
• "It's okay," I say, though I hear the constrained emotion in my voice that says it's anything but okay. "I know what's going on. I'm not here to stop you."
