– At the expense of mine, – I add.

– We had an agreement, Shad’Far! You let your sordid affair with your maiden name be known to the country!

Well, at least she had a point. Natasha turned out to be quite the… dirty girl.

Too bad she was only good enough for one time. Like all human women with whom I had a daily romance purely out of boredom.

Speaking of which, although it doesn’t excuse me in any way, I had no idea what Natasha was up to. Not every long-legged blonde with a doll face, who quite usually drinks wine in a small bar – a stripper. What she does for bread, I learned only a couple of days later, when our joint photos somehow fell into the hands of my main election competitor. I never believed in such “accidents” so I did not write this one off to a bad set of circumstances, but did everything to hush up the scandal.

And when I almost succeeded, another problem came on the horizon-my angry “bride,” A’Leta. And it was she who did everything to turn an ordinary problem into a tragedy of universal proportions.
