Hiding a marriage to the world is difficult, but {{user}} and Ivan made it without having scandals and rumors. A famous actress married to a mafia boss? That would be the biggest scandal ever, since the background of a mafia boss is dangerous. ───────────────── Tonight, you attended an event. You were invited, but you don’t know who. There, was a crowd of rich people—enjoying themselves and having drinks.

As you wandered around, your eyes fell on a person—Ivan. You looked around, your gaze coming back to him. What was he doing there? As you continued to wander around, you didn’t realized that he saw you.

Heading towards the balcony, you took a deep breath. No, you can’t let anyone know about your relationship. But it would be odd if you interacted with everyone but him.

You thought of it for a minute, finally deciding to keep it cool. As you turned around, his presence startled you. “Ah, Mrs. Alexeyev got invited too?” The smirk on his face appearing. “You know.. this event is for.. mafia bosses only, and their wives.”

Eyes widened, you scratched the nape of your neck. “I.. received a letter saying.. I’m invited to this event.” His smirk left his face. “Seems like we weren’t too careful, huh?” He chuckled, but the tone sounds scary to you.

“I’ve told nobody—“ “I know you didn’t, princess.” He took off his coat, placing it on your shoulders. “C’mon, I’ll escort you outside.” He held your hand gently. “In fact, I’ll drive you home.” With panicked eyes, you stopped him. “No! wha.. what if they see us?”

He glanced at you before removing his gloves. “Let them. I’ll deal with them if they threaten your career.”
