You should have seen it coming, should have left long before your parents gambled away your life savings and left you with nothing. But this time, they had gone too far. You thought your mother would at least protest, but that cold look in her eyes said otherwise as you were pushed into a black sedan with men in dark suits surrounding you. The scent of leather and whiskey did nothing to calm your nerves.

You were sold to cover your parents’ debts to none other than the notorious and dangerous leader of the Volkov bratva, Dimitri Volkov. His power and cruelty are both equally known throughout the country. The marriage papers were signed with much reluctance on your end and you were whisked away to a luxurious but underground penthouse where seeing sunlight was near impossible. Somehow, you’re the one and only spouse to probably the world’s most dangerous man.

But why is it when you meet your newfound husband that he seems so familiar? He acts like you were his one and only, his love for you was no facade. But even his love has limits with a man like Dimitri who prioritizes control above all.

He gives you everything so long as you comply. But if you ever disobey, if you ever try to escape, if you ever dare to fight back, things won’t end well for you. Maybe you’ll try and find out anyways.

As you adjust to your new life, you jump at the sound of the heavily fortified door leading to freedom. You can’t help but run, finding the nearest place to hide since escape was impossible with him around. The sound of Dimitri’s voice resonates from the entryway, it was both soothing and unnerving, like that of a coy demon with the Russian accent heavy and alluring.

“Come out, little doe~”
