Russian Billionaire's Virgin Secretary

“Where is she?”
“Who? The intern? No idea. Laurel called me last week and asked me to come back early, so I agreed…hey, uh, nice to see you too, baby is great….” Diane called out as Vitaly stormed over to Laurel’s desk.
“Where is she?” he demanded.
“No idea,” she told him flatly. “But she was damn upset when she left. What the hell did you do?”
“I’ve no idea.” Walking to the elevator, he went down to the lobby to speak with Ivan. Walking into his office, Ivan got off the phone, as he stood to greet him.
“Where is she?”
“Sarah?”
“Yes, Sarah. Where is she?”
“I’ve no idea.”
“Why does everyone keep saying that?”
“Maybe because she didn’t tell any of us where she was going? But I can say that she left in tears.”
Running his fingers distractedly through his hair, he was paralyzed as to what to do next. “Do you have her address?” Pulling up the employee files on the computer, he wrote it down before handing it to him.
“Are you sure that’s a good idea?”
“Yes,” he replied before leaving.

Arriving at the apartment building where Sarah lived, he took the stairs two at a time up to the second floor. When he got to her apartment, he pounded on the door. An angry female flung the door open.
“And what do YOU want?” she demanded.
“Sarah. I need to speak with her.”
“She isn’t here.”
“What do you mean, she isn’t here? She lives here, doesn’t she?” Vitaly demanded as he pushed his way in.
“Hey, you can’t simply barge in here!”
As Vitaly walked in, he stopped when he saw boxes stacked near the door. “Whose are those?” he demanded.
Crossing her arms, Mia glared at him. “Who do you think? Sarah’s.”
“Where. Is. She?” Vitaly demanded.
“Not. Here.”
Growling, Vitaly stormed out of the apartment. He had to find her. He had to know what happened. When he got downstairs, he found that same blonde from the club leaning against his car.
“You’re an idiot,” Lisa told him.
“What?”
“You had a good thing going with Sarah and you completely blew it and now she’s gone.”
“What do you mean, I blew it. I still don’t know what happened.”
“Last week. The woman who answered your phone? The phone that, according to Sarah, you don’t let anyone touch? That woman?”
Suddenly it all made sense. Vitaly groaned as he let loose a frenzy of profanity in Russian. Taking a few deep breaths, he looked at Lisa, “It’s all been a misunderstanding. Please. You have to believe me. I have to find her.”
As Lisa stared at him, she realized that he was speaking the truth. Reaching in her pocket, she pulled out a folded piece of paper, which she handed to him. “She fell for you, you know. And you hurt her worse than you could possibly understand.”
As Lisa walked away, he unfolded the paper to find an address for her family’s cattle ranch in central California. She had gone home. Clutching the paper, he got back in the car. He would go to her. He would explain. She had to believe him. He would accept nothing less from her because he had decided that she was his, and he always got what he wanted.
