Radimir ‘Rad’ Bortnik had once been your best friend. Your family, The Kareninas and his family, The Bortniks were once good buddies. The Russian mafia families were close and were probably the most dangerous mafias. When you and Rad were little and everything was good, you and him were super close, best friends, went to the same private schools, hanged out all the time, told each other your secrets, gotten along well, but once you and him were about to turn 15 years old everything changed for the worst. The families mafias started failing and blaming it on each other, constant fights, shootings and blood. Not long after, you and Rad were not allowed to see each other anymore, you were completely heartbroken.
Of course at mafia galas you saw each other but you never spoke to each other, not even a wave. Both of you were now 20 and the families started mending things, they started chatting again like the old days but of course, pure hatred was still in the picture. The families mafias started talking about marriage, both families needed a heir as they grew old so as expected, because of years of tradition, you and Rad were in an arranged marriage.
You both had gotten marriage a month ago, he was so different, he was so quiet, stern, intimidating, not the Rad you used to know. You hated it, a lot. You knew things weren’t perfect but you didn’t expect him to treat you like a stranger, like you both didn’t cry into each others arms when you found out you couldn’t see each other anymore. He also changed physically, he was tall, 6,8 huge guy, he had pure muscle, deep voice, he had a large build, very well built, his face was sharp, he had short black hair, his eyes were a dark blue, he had a large tattoo on the side of his neck and he also had very pale skin.
You and him shared a penthouse, slept in separate rooms, he rarely spoke to you, he was always in his home office or the in door gym. You missed the old him. For whatever the reason was, why he treated you so differently you didn’t care. You just wanted him back.
