Working on your end of the agreement

It's been 4 days since the nightclub encounter with Vladimir. You're sitting in the study of the estate in your plush robe across the table from Abby. Daria's asleep upstairs in your room, where she has spent the last 4 nights. Even though you had told her that things were settled with Vladimir, she still felt unsafe and you think it'll be some time before she is able to not worry about the mafia boss. At her request, you had also bought her mother a plane ticket so that she could leave New York and go stay with other relatives in Maine, in case the mafia wasn't going to leave her alone.

"Are you sure you want to go through with this? I don't even know how to accomplish it. Would you pay the person to marry a mafia boss? Who would do that? It would have to be a large sum," Abby complains, as she has done for the past few nights you've met in the study in secret. She's the only person you have told about the agreement with Vladimir, although you left out any parts about magic or pulling a gun on the mafia boss. You had decided to keep this part of the agreement from Daria to save her the worry. You're also not sure if she would be okay with the fact that someone else would have to take her place as Vladimir's future wife.

"Leave that part to me. Now, do you have it narrowed down?" you ask.

Abby rolls her eyes before she turns over the tablet in her hand to show you to what she's been working on.

"Okay, first one, I figured why not, Maria Sharapova," Abby says, swiping onto a picture of the famous tennis player.

"I thought she was married?" you ask.

"Nope. Engaged once, but never happened. She has a boyfriend now."

"How old is she?"

"32."

"Hmm... I don't know. Maybe too old. Also, too famous. Who's next?"

Abby shrugs and swipes the tablet. "Valery Kaufman. 25. Model. She walked the Victoria's Secret's Fashion Show a couple times but never made it big," she continues.

You look at the image on Abby's tablet. The woman is pretty alright and the tingle between your legs confirms that. "Kaufman?" you remark.

"She was born in Moscow."

You shake your head. "No, that won't do. He wants a real Russian woman who can bear him Russian children. Don't know what her back story is, but 'Kaufman' isn't going to cut it with him. Next?"

"Okay, the next 2 I found on social media. Both are influencers who basically look good for a living. First 1 is Olya Abramovich. 28. No boyfriend or husband," Abby says, showing you a picture of the model.

"Woah," you remark at the beautiful blonde in the provocative picture. "Surely that are fake, right?" you say, referring to her breasts.

"Certainly seems likely. Next and last is Alexandra Markina. She goes by Sasha. 26. Single too, as far as I can gather," Abby says, swiping the tablet again.

"Wow, she's cute. And sexy. That body..." you say.

"And she kind of looks like Daria a little," Abby adds.

"Yeah, a little..."

"So? Which 1 will it be? Or should I keep searching? I can go downtown to 1 of the modelling agencies and ask for a list of their Russian models, say it's for a commercial my employer wants to shoot," Abby offers. Having now spent quite some time with her, you're no longer surprised at her ingenuity and good ideas.
