Summary
To Svetlana, the world is so obvious.
She tracks patterns, clocks nuance, reads futures in microexpressions and histories in breathing changes. Men and women are open tomes, transactions are manipulable, and exchanges are inevitably in her favor. There is little she has ever wanted that she has not easily seen a path to acquire, and the exceptions have always proven to be things she did not want so much after all.
Save one.
She has wanted peace for Ilya for so long it has seared her.

Summary
It's one in the morning when Ilya wakes. He hears a bird chirping. At one in the morning. When it is dark and birds should sleep and not be chirping at him.
Also, he is laying on his stomach, which is absurd, because if he is laying on his belly, there should be a Shane beneath him to curl himself around, to hear grumble at his every tiny movement, to periodically shove at him and complain that he is too hot, too sweaty, he smells, his curls tickle him, move you idiot.
To quiet with a kiss.
