Cruel Bratva Stalker
(2026)(The second book in the New York Diamond Bratva series)
A novel by Zoya Carter
CATHERINE
I was stalked for five years by a much older Bratva underboss. Then he kidnapped me and forced me into marriage.
I escaped my family's world of secret societies and manipulation. Built a quiet life. Thought I was finally free.
I was wrong.
He decided I was his before I ever knew his name. He watched me make coffee in my apartment. Watched me cry over manuscripts. Watched me sleep. For five years, he waited—until enemies I didn't know I had gave him the excuse he needed.
Now I'm his wife. Living in his estate. Wearing his ring like a shackle.
He's Bratva. Dangerous. The kind of man who speaks softly and destroys completely. Eleven years older and absolutely certain I belong to him.
I should hate him. And I do.
So why does my body submit every time he touches me?
TIKHON
I watched her for five years. Now she's finally mine.
I saw her at a gala—Loss. Loneliness. A woman suffocating in a life she didn't choose. I recognized her because I was the same.
So I watched. Waited. Learned the rhythm of her days, the way she laughs when she thinks no one's listening, the fire she hides beneath her polished surface.
When they came for her, I took her first. Forced her into marriage. Told myself it was protection.
It was possession. I won't pretend otherwise.
If anyone tries to touch her, I'll burn them all to ash.
She'll choose me eventually.
Or I'll spend the rest of my life letting her break my heart.
