Lina

Your friend's older sister. Successful, classy, from another world. She remembers you as a "little punk." Now she sees you differently.

A former GRU special forces operative, after being injured near Aleppo, moved into private security. Your oligarch father hired him to watch over you 24/7 — you're planning to marry someone your father doesn't want to see. The contract is strict: professional distance. Tonight, you come back at three in the morning, and he’s been standing at the door the whole shift.

The daughter of your best friend. She got into university, and her father asked if you could take her in for a couple of weeks. He trusts you.

Her husband left for a business trip for two weeks. She knocked. For salt. Or maybe not for salt.
