When we drove up in a taxi to the hotel in Novosibirsk, exhausted, I already followed Maxim on the machine, rolling my suitcase behind me on wheels, he carried the second suitcase and his bag himself. Having taken the elevator to the fifth floor, we went to the room, where I froze in a stupor:- Is this my number or yours?- This is our number, Leah.- AND…- We are actually husband and wife, - turning away, he walked on. Having trampled at the entrance, she followed him into the room, where there was a sofa, a table, a couple of armchairs. Putting down her suitcase, she went into the second room, where there was one, but a wide bed with white swans made of towels. I have seen many of these in magazines. Stopping at the bedroom door, she shivered, hugging her shoulders.Yes, it seems that we really are husband and wife, but only on paper! And I was not ready for such a radical development of events, at least not yet.Leah, relax.Turning around, I saw that Maxim, having opened his bag

With my experiences, I fell asleep so soundly that I did not hear when he came, and when he left too. While I was thinking sadly and putting dirty things in a bag, my stomach began to growl, of course, the last time I ate at the airport, before flying to Tokyo!I decided to go to that cafe that I saw from the attic yesterday, there must be something edible there? I put on beige tapered trousers with ruffles, pulled on a silver top, prepared a cropped jacket and high-heeled shoes, I found my purse and began to rummage through it in search of a passport.Not finding what she was looking for, she shook out the contents on the sofa in the living room and only then, with a distressed groan, flopped into an armchair - the passport, in the cover of which I put my bank plastic card, remained with Maxim. He took it back in Vladivostok, and before landing he put it together with his documents in his case.I transferred the money into dollars, and they were all on the card, but there was no cash

The alarm clock alerted me with a weak vibration signal about the beginning of a new day. It's half past seven, I'll just have time to get dressed quickly and leave before Maxim wakes up! She threw on a dressing gown and slipped into the attic, where she quietly washed herself with mineral water from a bottle taken in the mini-bar, over a tub with a tree, and also quietly slipped back. I was careful not to go through the bedroom to the bathroom, and even turn on the water there.I got dressed, tied my hair in a high ponytail, inserted colored lenses that hide the natural amber color of my eyes and even applied makeup, today I wanted to look attractive. I put on ballet flats - I planned to walk and walk a lot today in order to have time to see as much as possible - and slipped out of the room. Only when I went outside and turned onto the road in the direction of that very bench, I dialed Andres' number and realized that it would not work to talk to him, again everything rests on ignora

Maxim slowly ran his thumb over his lips, and I was already waiting for him to lean in and kiss, but swallowing, he continued in a low voice:- And if they helped, then it turns out that you deserve it, you deserve trust. Alina and Alex were drawn to you, and I wondered why they ran to you every evening. I sometimes watched you from the side ...- Observed? She looked at him in surprise. He chuckled, but kind of softly.- Yeah, just imagine. Several times I saw you fooling around behind your house. And only then I realized when I joined your company: it’s very comfortable and calm with you, you attract me like the sun and warm me with your warmth. And if our beasts, as you think, really pushed us towards each other, it would have happened sooner, Leah. From the very first sight. Usually the rest of the werewolves do this: as soon as they smell a couple, they are drawn to each other. But we don’t have that situation: your artifact blocks the smell, that’s why there was no recognition,

- Maxim, wait, why is there fabric everywhere?- Because the fabric absorbs sounds. At the same time, several werewolves go through the procedure of contacting the creators at once, each in their own sector, and sometimes these procedures are quite unpleasant, painful for someone, -This already alerted me and, pulling back, listened to him already with anxiety:"Are you saying it's painful or unpleasant?" Why?- Both painful and unpleasant, but working with a gift, correcting, correcting cannot pass like a holiday. Everyone decides for himself whether to go to the well or not, and only the priest can say what he can expect in this or that case. Again, only speculation. But after the interview, everyone is given time to consider whether he wants to go further or not. So do not be afraid: you will have the opportunity to refuse.Nodding, I asked more calmly:- You said something about doors.- Hmm, yes, the doors there also replace the original curtains. But before leaving you alone, t
