I dodged a string of arranged marriages…until a brutal villain gave me no choice. 

I’m a good girl, a Bratva princess, with one problem.

I don’t want to marry.

I spend years avoiding my fate.

Until him.

Leks Zhukov. 

The madman who killed my brothers. 

A scarred giant with muscles of steel and years of Bratva secrets. 

On my wedding day, he doesn’t ask. He takes, eyes darker than the Siberian winters he suffered through. 

I know he only wants me for revenge, nothing else, so our marriage goes unconsummated.

Then he offers me the truth. 

The price? My innocence. 

Now I crave this killer’s touch more than his downfall.

And he can’t bear to let me go. 

Not even when my father’s lies threaten everything…
