Synopsis
"You don't simply stop playing a game. Especially when it's mine; you either win. Or loose." Vasili had told her this eight years ago, and eight years later she'd said, "Wrong. Allow me to introduce you to the word 'draw'." *** Emily Moralez was certain the universe was determined to screw her over. She's been caught in a crossfire between two rivaling syndicates, her father's made arrangements for her to get married to a don twice her age--despite knowing she has a boyfriend. And said boyfriend cheated on her the day before their engagement. And it gets worse. Vasili Romanov. The name was feared, revered, respected: hated. Emily knew where she fell. In the percentage that hated him. Vasili Romanov was back for her family. Back to destroy it, her, and everything she held dear with a vengeance that burned as hot as the passion he ignited in her.

✾Brief Author's Note✾
My female MC's 11 years old in this chapter. Happy reading!.Someone snorted beside me. "Fantasising about killing him again, Emily?"
I sighed, squinting against the glare of the noonday sun as I shifted on the springy grass so that I was facing my best friend, Luna D'Agosto. "As if," I denied with a huff, "I haven't thought about him since... since. He doesn't deserve a mental killing from me--because that'd be me thinking about him."
I thought about him always.
So far, I've killed him five hundred times.Mentally, of course.Luna released a short laugh. "Whatever you say, Em." She sounded unbelieving.
My eyes narrowed on her, then faced the object of my homicidal thoughts.
Vasili.
I and my family had recently relocated from Miami to Russia two months ago. They'd said it was safer here. Weird.
Anyways, I didn't question their decision because it'd have been left unanswered. I supposed it had something to do with 'territories'. I'd heard my father say that much over the phone concerning our moving to Russia.And so far, I was trying my best to adjust to the new environment.
But someone just had to be a dignified obstacle in my progress.The obstacle was currently sitting by himself, alone. Giving off the impression he was a quiet, unassuming angel.
Wrong.
He was a... what was the word again. Yes, he was a dyavlo. A huge one.His glacier blue eyes met mine and I sucked in a sharp breath, cursing myself for reacting in anyway to the little twerp.
His face, which had previously been frozen in a countenance of humility and boredom, now contorted into a devilish expression.His eyes glinted with mischief, and a promise of so many hair pullings and deliberate trippings to come.
Mine glinted, too, with a promise of many face smashings to come.We had begun a silent game, and it seemed to have two singular rules. Whoever cried off first or tattled on the other for bullying was the loser.
I hated loosing.
And so did he, l was coming to realize.
But, we had been at this game for two months, and it had started to wear on me. So I was going to do the next best thing; back out.
I wasn't crying off, mind you. After all, all was fair in love and war.Not that I... loved him or anything.Ew.As Luna stood to go over to her mother I sucked in a slow breath. This was my chance.
I stomped my way across the field in the open park and over to the stone bench he sat on."It is over," I declared once I came to stand before him.
His hand slowly went up to his chest, an amused smile playing on his lips. "You don't say," he began, imitating my accent. "How am I supposed to live knowing w--"
"Shut it!" I snapped, his brows rose. "I'm not playing your stupid game anymore."
Something dark dawned in his eyes and a slow smile stretched his lips to the side. "Oh, Marena," he said lowly, his stupid Russian accent thick, "you do not simply stop playing a game, especially when it is mine. You either win. Or loose."
I glowered at him, wanting so badly to wipe the smirk off his face. Using my elbow.
But none of those things happened. Because months later, his brother did.
I hadn't even known he had one. . . until he was murdered.It was rumored my father had been responsible.

Emily's POV. . Today was my engagement day. Little wonder why I felt like shit. I winced when a sharp pain lanced down my head and an unholy headache started to throb at my temples. A whimper escaped my lips as I slowly brought my palms down on my head. Why was I feeling this way again? Luna. The name came with a bolt of realisation. I'd gone to a party with her last night, and was probably having a hangover. A series of memories soon started to unfold. Jerry had cheated on me. I'd ran away from the club...I'd kissed a stranger. I bolted upright. And soon regretted it. "Oouuuchhh," I intoned as I winced in pain. My head started to spin, and so did my stomach. I ran to the bathroom when it became evident I was about to puke. Bending over, I hurled what felt like the entire content of my stomach into the toilet. I got up after I was certain there was nothing left in my gut. Staggering, I went over to the sink

Vasili's POV.Shocked at myself and even more shocked at my actions, I walked over to my car, mentally calling myself all the vile words in my vocabulary.My body was still strung up from a mere kiss. I scrubbed a palm over my face, thinking about how I would have likely taken her up against the wall if she did not take matters into her own hands. Literally, I thought drily, shutting my eyes for a moment.I placed my forehead on the steering wheel for a minute and allowed thoughts of what I was about to do infiltrate my mind.Guns. I was about to buy a billions worth of arms.Not without my right hand man, of course. My cousin Benedikt. He was getting a lot too nosy lately, I thought, irritated.Only God knew what he would think of me kissing Emily Moralez. Then I shoved the thought aside, not knowing why I even cared. I did not need anybody's f*cking approval or dis

Park West was known for its active nightlife, so I couldn't find a quiet spot to wallow in my misery--oh there was one. After a long moment of walking unsteadily, I trudged over to the lonely spot beneath a lamplight, my purse hanging off my shoulder listlessly, head aching, heart aching. CIS (current internal Status): miserable, life currently feels like it's tearing at the seams.Resting my back against the hard walls of the quiet alley, I swiped away the hair sticking to my head due to the humid air, and took out Ayla from my purse, holding on to her for a while.I sniffed quietly, and tried to picture myself how I looked like at the moment: wretched.So not me.A flare of anger sparked to life in my gut. The m*otherf*cking cheat!I wrenched Ayla open and flipped through pages, looking for the one I'd written about Jerry.When I found it, I tore it out, not caring if there was some

We'd gotten to the club. And it was wild. So wild it could've been an orgyCouples grinded against each other in a mindless frenzy, partners exchanged r-rated kisses. A man went down on his partner. Right... In the middle... Of the dancefloor.I needed bleach for my eyes.Standing up from the thirteen-seater bar and making my way through a sea of gyrating pelvises with a glass of martini in my hand, I sought Luna, hoping to dance a little.I found her in the middle of the floor, busting out some really cool moves. People cheered. My ears throbbed. So many people."Emileyy!" She yelled when she saw me. Her voice sounded muffled over the music and noise clogging my ears, "Come over here!" She shouted, punctuating her statement by motioning wildly with her hands.I changed my mind. I was quite okay here. Would feel even better seated at the bar. Must... Get... There.I turned, about to hightail it back to the bar, whe

My ears perked up at the sound of someone opening my door slowly."Psst!" Luna.I threw off the sheets shielding my party dress, and rolled over to the other end of the bed quietly, landing on my feet just as quiet.The night was pitch black and relatively quiet. Perfect for sneaking out.Luna made her way towards me, her heels dangling from her fingers.She whistled lowly. "I said hot, not boxer-dropping. . .or tightening."I snorted, smoothening my hand down the sheath dress I'd altered so that scarce faux feathers lined the bust, and dipped: following the dangerously low neckline. 'You can never be overdressed or underdressed wearing a little black dress--K. L.' I took in Luna. "You don't look so bad yourself."Luna twirled, showcasing a tube top and jean shorts that barely cleared her ass. When she came to a stop, she said urgently, "Yeah, now come on. Jerry's been waiting his ass out down the drive."I didn't bot

"You're getting engaged tomorrow," father said, levelling me with a probing stare, "and into one of the most powerful families in the Syndicate."My face remained blank."Castello is a good man."My face... didn't remain blank.That sentence rattled my nerves, stringing them tightly with its obnoxiousness until I felt like I would erupt. I'd like to know what his definition of 'good' comprised of. And I had a feeling it wasn't that 'good', either."If I had my way you wouldn't be getting engaged tomorrow, Emiliano," father said quietly, stopping his assault on the piece of paper.The anger and irritation pumping through me sloshed to a halt, receding backwards at an unholy speed and being replaced by hope. Sweet, fragile hope."You'd be getting married," he concluded.A distant crashing sound filled my ears from a faraway space. My budding hope shattering to pieces. A familiar curdle pushed its way into the back of my throat and
