Boris finishes another slice, an amused chuckle escaping him. "Generalising there, aren't you?" He glances at her. "Or have you been meeting up with that cop? Got to know him real good?" Doubtful but it's fun to poke at her. That cop seemed to be floundering for clues if he came back asking for vague hints Mariam might remember. That, or hoping to catch her in a lie. "You know, he might be thinking you killed Dunga. Hoped to make you slip up and say something stupid." Probably didn't expect there to be another man in her life. Now Siebald will be looking at Boris. Fucking annoying.

With a content groan, Boris pulls himself out of his body filled bed. Paying no attention to the two female vampires feasting on a half dead human at the foot of the bed. It smells like sex and blood. Just how Boris likes it, but the night had barely started, and he’s already bored. Sex, blood, sleep, and repeat. Gaining this immortal life has been a gift from Kai, sure, but Boris isn’t half bored now they have so much of Russia under control. And soon the rest of the world. Thinking of, Boris might go give Kai a visit. Been a while since he last saw that bastard. He might have some fun things for Boris to do.

Boris turns to look at Kai, an annoyed glare on his face. "And why am I being punished? I kept your secret, and now my brothers are angry at me. What more do you fucking want?" Kai really does get everything, doesn't he? Boris can't stop the bitter feeling in his chest. He keeps Garland, and no one can say or do anything about it.

"Don't want to add us to the list?" Of course, Mariam can rattle off names. Boris just chuckles to himself. She can probably name more. "Navigate dealing with smug pricks like him." All charm and know-it-all energy wrapped up in a stupid uniform. God, Boris wants to stab the asshole. "He seemed perceptive. Fucking annoying."

Boris sighs. Kai is being oddly hopeful, thinking Yuriy can be reasoned with. "I will try, Kai, but Yuriy is far more stubborn than he was before." And currently just as mad at Boris. He's going to want blood. "She won't leave. You won't have to do anything." Boris glances back at Mariam, a pointed stare that screams 'please don't mouth back at Kai'. Breaking something is not what Boris wants, it'll ruin his fun, but shackling her to the bed... That could work better, even if it'll piss Mariam off even more than she usually is.

"There's been couple killers, hasn't there?" Boris never got into the whole serial killer shit, even if he is one, but he's sure there have been a few husband-and-wife killers. "The fact your little cop friend didn't just arrest me." Boris had been sure for a good, hard moment Mariam had finally called them. Led him home to trap him.

Boris blinks. Kai is trusting him that much. Even if he knows it's because Kai has the perfect leverage with Mariam, it's still so much. And asking him to calm Yuriy... Boris doubts he can now. Maybe before he could have, but not with his betrayal being so obvious. "You think I can convince him to leave Garland alone? The man he's torn Europe up trying to find?" If anything, hiding Garland in a new place will be far easier than telling Yuriy to stop. "He'll want something. I'm sure of it." Boris tries to not scowl at that suggestion, even if it was something he and Sergei discussed. Making sure Mariam can never cause trouble. Or leave the bed. "I will think of something for her."

Boris chuckles. Mariam has a point. This place is a shit hole that she's tried to make livable. Nearly half the size of Boris' place. "Everyone has to have hobbies," Boris says to rile Mariam up. "Maybe one day you will see how much fun it is." Boris likes that idea. Knife in hand as she drives it into someone's heart. Corrupted into a cruel thing like Boris.

"I never agreed to help him, Kai." Boris hates the fact that he will betray Yuriy again, but currently, the man is too far gone in his hatred to be reasoned with. Nothing but Garland's corpse will satisfy Yuriy, and even then he might still want revenge on those who hid Siebald. Mariam will not be safe unless it's thanks to Kai, as much as Boris hates to admit it. "What do you want me to do?"

Boris blinks, eyes turning to watch Mariam. He wasn't expecting a sorry. A pushback, maybe. A snide comment that tested his anger. But Mariam stopped. Stepped out of her student mindset of learning and pushing for answers, for once. Boris just grunts a whatever but accepts the beer gladly. "Yeah. Not everyone can be all fancy and go to university." Boris teases lightly. It's another subject about him, but not as landmine-filled as his blood relations can be.

It's here that Boris looks away, in shame almost, over the fact he never got the bitbeast. Even now, he doesn't know where it is. Not that giving it up would have saved Mariam's life. "... From Yuriy." Boris says. If Kai wanted Garland safe, he shouldn't have come here. "He's already demanded I help him get Garland." It's why Boris is so surprised Kai is here and not looming over his toy, keeping him safe. "I refused. I win nothing no matter if I helped him or not."

Boris shakes his head, eyes glued to the laptop screen. Mariam really likes to probe with the questions. Like digging her fingers in a festering wound without realising. Or perhaps she does know and is doing this on purpose. "I have no fucking clue, Mariam. Stop asking about my family. There was just... Me and her." Boris shoves pizza crust in his mouth just so he can bite something hard, chew through the thick crust and calm down.

"I've tried very hard to mellow the accent out." If only to stop questions about where he's from constantly being thrown his way. Boris barely pays attention to the movie, more focused on how much he should tell Mariam now. She practically knows enough to locate his home, if she were so inclined. "Yes. If I knew them."

With a content groan, Boris pulls himself out of his body filled bed. Paying no attention to the two female vampires feasting on a half dead human at the foot of the bed.

Boris' face darkens slightly, but really, he can't deny it. His girls always get a little fucked up. Before Mariam came here, there had been a couple more. Long dead due to their own mistakes, or just annoying him too much. Then Mariam speaks, and Boris can't even hide the moment of shock that crosses his face. Eyes going wide as she just says that at Kai, right in this moment. She has a death wish. She really does. That snarky mouth he usually loves, Boris finds himself hating in this moment. "I'm... Not going to let you kill her easily, Kai." He knows he can't stop Kai, but he will make it hurt like a bitch if Kai goes for it.

Boris makes a face but says nothing. Just takes a bite of his pizza. The only saving grace to his name is that it's incredibly common. Back in his home country, at least. Boris never met another Kuznetsov while living here. "Right to my core." Boris says in perfect Russian before glancing at Mariam.

With a content groan, Boris pulls himself out of his body filled bed. Paying no attention to the two female vampires feasting on a half dead human at the foot of the bed.

Boris presses his lips into a thin line, not daring to look back at Mariam and have Kai's attention on her again. It's easier if Kai keeps looking at him. "I'm not going to do it." Boris states flatly. "I kept your secret, why should I lose what's mine?" Boris can only imagine the face Mariam pulls at those words.

"Look up my name if you fucking want to find out." Boris says bitterly, still annoyed he had to give it out. Petty crimes from his youth and nothing since then. Siebald shouldn't have anything to link him to the murders. Boris still huffs in annoyance before picking up a pizza slice. "Don't know. People die all the time. Someone else probably died in a mugging, and they think they have a connection." Boris is damn near sure it's the man from that night. What else could it be?

Boris goes numb, eyes not leaving Kai for a second as the man saunters into his room. He truly didn't expect Kai to come down here for a while longer. Not with Yuriy still in the building, no doubt recovered from the fight. Boris should have known better. Should have woken Mariam up earlier and be gone by now. "... He left it to me. As punishment." Boris can't help but say, wanting to defend Sergei. Even if the bigger vampire isn't happy with him right now.
