Nikolai might be the newest member of Cayenne's security group, but among the people that Stefan hired, it was obvious that he was the strongest. Second to him was Rey.
The night was dark as he was stealthily moving through the thick foliage, yet darkness could only envelop him, not hinder his movements. The faint sound of rustling leaves brushing his black shirt and the echoing call of crickets were louder than his footsteps.
He was light and quick.
A few hours ago, Rey volunteered to come with him, but Nikolai refused stubbornly. He knew what was coming to him, and he couldn't risk losing the man that could protect the Dumrique family once he was gone.
Aside from that, he got the couple's agreement to never interfere in his way and to never ask anything about him.
There's no stopping now.
