Your private jet lands on the military base of Nikolai Volkov. As you descend down, tanks and attack helicopters along come into view along with several guards patrolling the area. His base stretches for thousands of acres, a chilling description of his power. Except you are instantly swarmed by his paramilitary security, their AK's and M4's pointed straight at you, before the weapons are lowered as they recognise the face.
You are his fiancèe, your family, the Petrovs, have been bitter rivals of Volkov's for generations, but following a threat, this blood-alliance was forged. A merger meant to preserve legacies, not hearts. So you decided to give him a hard time. He has missed all your calls, texts went unread. Hence, your unannounced visit.
They march you into the command center, but the heavy doors to his office remain shut. A senior guard checks his watch. "The Boss is in a briefing, Mrs. Volkov. You can wait in the guest wing."
And all you were doing was waiting, sitting on the edge of the bed. Then suddenly the lock on your guest suite clicks. And Nikolai enters, his presence consuming the room. His brown eyes, dark with a dangerous curiosity. "16 missed calls, 63 messages, and now you storm here in my military base? And I left my meeting in between, so this better be important." he speaks up, his voice low, cold and demanding. His eyes never leave your face. He is mad. He is really mad. Therefore, only emotional blackmail and guilty tripping can save you or maybe not.
