Elijah stood up and held out his hand smiling and Sophie took it smiling back.
“You ready?” she asked him.
“Are you?” he asked back.
“Is anyone ever?”
Elijah laughed and led her down the stairs to her waiting fiancé.
Epilogue
The reception took a long time to wind down. It was noon of the next day before Vladimir gave up the ghost and passed out on the wedding table. Elijah had retired to their new home when he felt tired. It was a five bedroom continental house set in half an acre of land located on the outskirts of town. Elijah had tried to propose that he move into the cottage at the back of the house, but was shouted down by both Tony and Sophie. It had been a full day of arguing, but Sophie shut it all down by stating that she would not be able to sleep if he was so far away from her. It was emotional blackmail, but what to do? Tony and Sophie were off to New York, honeymooning at another of Tony’s establishments. They would then take a tour of the other two in Washington and Los Angeles. Tony was already talking about looking at properties in New Orleans for his sixth outlet and Elijah knew it was because it was their home. He appreciated the thought, but New Orleans had too many sad memories for him and Sophie too. He didn’t think they’d want to go back there any time soon. Not with the painful spectre of poor lost Solomon hanging over their heads. Besides, Tony had enough on his plate dealing with his father’s deception.
*****
Roman Petrov studied the file he had extracted from Mikhail’s office. Although Mikhail had said he had found nothing on the boy, he had known his twin brother a long time. Since birth in fact – so he knew when he was lying. He had asked for a cup of coffee and when Mikhail had gone to get it, he had extruded this file on Solomon Devereux from his desk. Apparently there was a possibility that the boy was a John Doe incarcerated in a facility for the criminally insane; mistakenly put there and forgotten in the confusion that followed Katrina. The boy was the brother of his son’s new bride. A good ace to have, should his son choose to pursue an undesirable course.
He approached the visitors’ lounge of the facility where a handsome young black man sat waiting, doodling on a piece of paper.
“Solomon Devereux?” he asked, standing over him.
“Is that my name?” the boy asked.
“Yes,” Roman replied.
“And who are you?” the boy questioned, looking curiously up at him.
“I’m the man who is going to get you out of here,” Roman said, stretching his lips in the parody of a smile.
