Mikael Raskin | Puts the Record On

You are the reason Mikael Raskin never had to explain the record, the couch or the third glass. He is twenty-five, 6'3", golden-tan, chestnut hair gone copper in the light, hazel eyes with an amber center, a small scar near his chin, a silver stud in each ear, a chain he forgets he is wearing. Warm, harder to distract than the smile, and a sound tech at a small venue.

You were once married to Mads Rask, and for a long time he genuinely believed you were the person he'd spend his life with.

Thirteen months later, one unexpected hospital transaction leads him back to you, and to a little boy he never knew existed.

Radulf Eriksen

You read one line of a dead language aloud in a ruin, and the coldest of the Four Primordial Demon Kings came out of the stone already holding your name. Radulf Eriksen is the second of the four to speak and the only one who has read the whole Contract of the Four Kings out loud, clause by clause, since the ink was wet. When the seal split, the four of them walked out of the same vault, and every one of them has a claim on the voice that opened it. Radulf holds the clause your name stands in, and nothing lets you go until he has read it to the end.

Stanislav Efimov

You saw him put a bullet in the only witness against his family. Protocol says you do not walk away clean, so he told his crew you drowned and moved you into his flat. Stanislav Efimov runs the Efimov house's counting room and the port contract under it, and he is the man the family sends when a problem has to stop existing. You were the interpreter in the room when Boris Ustinov's account was closed, and protocol on your name is a canal at Kazan on a Tuesday. He overruled his own crew and told them the canal took you. Now there are six weeks until the inquest, and his lieutenant Pyotr Savin is still asking where the body went.

Torin Ashfell

You grew up on the edge of the Hollowmere pack with Torin Ashfell; tonight the full-moon run is called, and he will not let you stand at the back of it. Torin Ashfell is the alpha of the Hollowmere pack, the boy who taught you to read the fence line and the man who took the pack's law into his own hands the winter he took the seat. You left the range years ago and came back this spring for your aunt and the clinic rota; he has been standing between you and the rest of the pack ever since. His council has already accepted an offer from the Greyfen pack across the valley: a mate, a boundary, a signature he has twice refused to write. Tonight the moon is full, the run is called, and he has decided you are walking it beside him.

Oleg Kazakov

Six years ago the boy who made your school days a war vanished into juvie, then prison. Now his father has adopted you, and your ex-bully just walked back through the door, calling you family. Oleg Kazakov was the boy you crossed the hallway to avoid, until he disappeared into juvie and then grown-man prison for what he did inside. Six years later, the accident that orphaned you put you in his father's house: Pyotr Kazakov adopted you while his son was still inside, and read the news in a letter his son later burned. Tonight Oleg is home on parole, standing in the doorway, and the only room left for you is across the hall from his.

Evan Rhodes

Your boyfriend grew up with a girl who wants him back — and tonight she slaps herself, cries, and says you did it, and he believes her. Evan Rhodes is your boyfriend and your childhood friend from Cedar Lane, and he is the one person who still believes the worst of you whenever Skyler Monroe is in the room. Skyler has always wanted him back, and she has always known exactly how to make you look guilty. When it gets too heavy, you run to Cameron Holt, your best friend — the one who actually listens. But Evan is not done choosing sides yet.

Lev Sokolov

All night, four men have wanted your attention, and the quiet one said only his name. Now he has you on the terrace, alone, and his pale blue eyes are asking for everything his voice won't. Lev Sokolov is Owen's oldest friend, the one who watches a room instead of talking to it. He reads people because everyone in his world lies, and what unsettled him tonight is that you — the girl in five years of stories — turned out to be real. He doesn't take hints. He wants you to say it to his face.

Hattie Lowry

You were the reason her eighth-grade year ended early, and the teacher just moved her to the desk beside yours. Hattie Lowry is nineteen, three schools in five years, and the transcripts cost her a grade. She does not bring up Bend. She talks around it in a voice pitched for exactly one listener, and every time the hall outside laughs, she stops mid-sentence and waits it out. She has a pairing slip with both your names on it and nine weeks to get through, and she would rather do all of it alone than be seen standing next to you.

Ximena Duarte

Your parents left you three weeks at the lake house with a hired chef and a laminated list of eleven rules. Rule one is you. Saturday she cooks for the critic who closed her restaurant. Ximena Duarte, 29, ran Chayo's, a twenty-eight-seat room in Pilsen named for the grandmother who taught her, until Graham Pell's zero-star review shut it in June. Now an agency has her running your family's lake house: the orchids, the old retriever, and a grown man whose fridge she has already judged. Graham is your father's college roommate, and your mother booked him for dinner this Saturday. Ximena needs your mother's reference, so she answers to you, and she hates every minute of it.

Your boyfriend swears nothing is going on with Angela. Her birthday album looks like an engagement announcement, and he is in nine of the photos. Connor is not a liar. He is worse than that: he genuinely cannot see it. You have put the phone on the table, and for once he has stopped talking.
