LOGINFaina Petrov
After the wedding I never wanted, I now lie beside Andrey, but I can’t shut my mind off. It’s been three days since we “got married,” and we’re in Sweden on our honeymoon. The room is lit by a faint golden glow filtering through the curtains, making the dark wood furniture dance with shadows. The bed is imposing, dressed in silk sheets, but I feel as if I’m trapped in a tangled net.
<Faina GreenThe calm lasted exactly eleven days.Eleven days of relative peace—babies growing, hot nights in my husband's arms, virtual meetings with the Moscow council running surprisingly smoothly after Viktor’s fall.Then hell came knocking again.It was a rainy autumn afternoon when Heros entered the nursery with a grim expression. I was breastfeeding Darya while Vasily and Yakov played on the rug.“We need to go downstairs,” he said quietly. “Now.”I left the babies with the trusted nanny and followed him down to the war room. Luther, Noah, Lohan, and Zedekiah were already there, their faces grave.Heros turned on the projector.A photo appeared on the screen: a man around forty, dangerously handsome, with neatly cut black hair, cold green
Faina GreenThe interrogation room in the mansion’s basement was white, cold, and impersonal. No windows. No sound. Just a metal chair bolted to the floor, a small table, and harsh fluorescent lights that left no shadows.Viktor Kuznetsov was handcuffed to the chair, his shirt torn, his face swollen from the transport. Dried blood at the corner of his mouth. Still, when he saw me enter accompanied by the five, he managed a crooked, defiant smile.“Came to watch the show, little girl?”Heros closed the door behind us with a metallic click that echoed like a death sentence.I sat in the chair across from him, crossing my legs. My voice came out low, almost gentle:“You threatened
Faina GreenThe underground meeting room was silent, lit only by the large screens. It was 3 a.m. in New York and 11 a.m. in Moscow. I sat at the head of the table, wearing an impeccable black suit, my hair in an elegant bun, and subtle makeup. I looked calm on the outside. Inside, my heart was pounding.Heros was on my right, Luther on my left. Noah, Lohan, and Zedekiah occupied the other seats, forming a protective barrier. All of them are armed. All of them are ready.The screens lit up. Twenty-two faces appeared—the full Bratva Council.My father was present, sitting in the background, silent. Viktor Kuznetsov occupied the center of the main screen, his expression arrogant.I didn’t waste time.“Good afternoon, gentlemen,” I began, voice firm and clear. “We called this meeting because I le
Faina GreenThe private jet touched down in New York just after ten at night. I could barely stay still in my seat. My heart was pounding—a mix of relief and longing that almost hurt physically.“Easy, malen'kaya,” Heros murmured, squeezing my hand. “They’re fine. Your mother sent pictures two hours ago.”Still, the moment the plane stopped, I was the first down the stairs. The armored car was already waiting. The drive back to the mansion felt endless.When we finally walked through the front door, the silence was comforting. Mackenzie greeted us in the hall with a tired but warm smile.“They fell asleep a little while ago. They were restless all day… missing their mom.”I didn’t wait another second. I practically ran up the stairs, the five of them right behind me.I opened the nursery d
Faina GreenTwo months after my official decision, the inevitable moment arrived.My first trip to Moscow.It wouldn’t be long — only four days — but it was the first time I would leave the triplets for so long since they were born. My heart ached just thinking about it.The day before the trip, I spent the entire afternoon in the nursery. Darya was in my lap, clinging to my shirt as if she could sense I was leaving. Vasily crawled around us, and Yakov slept peacefully in his crib.“Mama…” Darya babbled, pressing her little face against my chest.Tears threatened to fall. I kissed the top of her head.“Mama will come back soon, my love. I promise.”The five of them entered the room in silence. They knew exactly how I was feeling.
Faina GreenThe days that followed were calm on the surface, but turbulent inside.I spent most of my time with the triplets—breastfeeding, playing on the rug, and watching their curious little eyes discover the world. Darya was already trying to crawl with determination, Vasily was the quietest and most observant, and Yakov laughed at everything his siblings did. They were my peace.But at night, when the babies were asleep, the conversation with Heros kept returning to my mind like a shadow.One week after our talk on the balcony, my phone rang. It was my father.I answered in Heros’s office, with all five of them present. I put it on speaker.“Daughter.” His voice sounded older and more tired than the last time. “I hope you’re well.”“I am, Dad. And Mom?”“Your mo
Faina PetrovFuck. The weight of the situation crushed me like an invisible hand around my throat. I didn’t want to have to shoot my father’s men. Goddamn it. If it weren’t for Luther's and Lohan’s endless questions, we could have already slipped out the back without
Luther Green I had to wait a month and a half. A month and a half of pure agony, sleepless nights, imagining a thousand scenarios where Liora was hurt, trapped, or — worse — laughing at us. And now here we are again, going after her. Exactly as the message Heros received ordered. Z
Heros GreenMoscow, Ulitsa Arbat (Arbat Street)The cold wind cut through the air like invisible blades while Noah, Zedekiah, and I positioned ourselves in an abandoned building a few blocks from the warehouse where Luther and Lohan had infiltrated.
Faina PetrovAndrey doesn’t share his father’s surname for reasons of cunning and security. My godfather wants his son to remain unlinked to him, preventing our enemies from using him as leverage. Just like my father did with me and my mother, always prioritizing the family’s protection.
