Exactly thirty-four years. It's all been a lie. She
sees it register as she pulls the trigger.
It's satisfying, so satisfying.
Almost as satisfying as fucking Andrian's beautiful son and imagining the expression on his face if he knew. She’ll have to give Sark up eventually, but her daughter will have him.
Not nearly as satisfying, though, as imagining Irina's expression when she realizes that the Covenant has succeeded because this time she was the smarter sister. Her cover was never blown. She never left her child behind.
Irina always won when they were children.
Not this time.
Yelena smiles.
