Chapter 162: Part 5

Russia 1918

He was proud of the position he attained and his ability to keep his vampire heritage a secret, but he felt at a disadvantage in the game of kings. It was his job to report the status of the continued imprisonment of Imperial Russia's royal family. This included the abdicated Tsar, his wife, and their children. To do that, he infiltrated the Bolshevic Secret Police, or Cheka, as they were known.
