I hadn't thought of the 2-sisters option. If that's the case, Aaronev and Selnikov are probably still at least cousins or something, since the book describes him as recently related to the royal family (I'd use the actual quote if I had the book handy).
The Selnikovs might even have children - I don't think it's been said anywhere that they don't, they could be in Paris with mama, and might be numbered among the "unpleasant cousins", although that's less likely since Anevka and Tarvek trusted Selnikov enough to be part of their plan. (Apologies for the grammar, I can't seem to disentangle that sentence)
