Assassin's Core, 7
Alexi didn’t expect to be able to put her life on cruise control especially now that she’s temporarily running part of the Krovopuskov family. However, Agent White’s mother is killed in a home invasion, and Alexi is suspect number one. Now she and White are locked in another tango.
As the dance heats up, White’s brother-in-law, facing serious charges, attempts to implicate Alexi to save his own skin only to put the lives of his wife and children at risk along with Tatiana’s.
Alexi will do whatever it takes to recover Tatiana, including sacrificing White’s brother-in-law. However, the unexpected happens, and Alexi finds herself making an alliance with an unlikely person.
To end this dance with all lives intact, Alexi must take a calculated risk. So, she deals the players one more hand in hopes she’ll be free of the White family for good.
Be Warned: f/f sex
Excerpt:
Alexi backed away from her, her gaze unreadable now.
“Alexi, we need to talk.” Tatiana said. “Where are you going?”
“To work,” Alexi replied tonelessly. “Or any damn place where you aren’t right now.” She picked up a few items from her desk and stuck them in a small bag before opening her drawer and removing her gun and holstering it.
“And the guns? What’s going on with them and your family?”
Alexi gave her a look. “Do you expect me to answer that now given that you don’t trust me?”
“I do trust you,” she snapped.
“That potion proves just how much.” Alexi shook her head and exited the office.
