Tatyana Petrov was never meant to be his forever.
She was meant to be his payment.
To end a brutal mafia war in Kazan, an innocent woman is offered in marriage to Nikolai Markov, the city’s most feared crime lord.
Their marriage is a transaction, not a union. She becomes his possession, protected by his power and imprisoned by his rules. He keeps her at arm’s length, determined to use her to settle old debts and avenge his clan.
But the more he resists her, the more she becomes something he cannot afford to dispose of.
She becomes the quiet center of his chaos and his weakness he would set the world ablaze to protect. As danger closes in, his loyalty is torn apart by a truth that changes everything: she is not his enemy’s blood… but his own.
Bound by a marriage meant to end a war, they must now choose between honor, power, and a love that was never meant to exist.
