They say behind every great man stands a woman.
Roman Ivanov isn't great—he's a cold-blooded Bratva killer plotting to overthrow his own father. But I'm that woman, Nala. The one he saved. The one who can read the past in a single touch.
I see what people have done. What they hide. What they intend.
And when I look at Roman, I see exactly who he'll become.
The Pakhan. Ruler of Moscow's underworld. Brutal. Efficient. Untouchable.
His father kidnapped me. Destroyed my childhood. Forced me to use my gift through cruelty and fear.
Roman stole me from that prison and wants to use me too. But he's different. He treats me like a person, not just a thing. The more time I spend with my new captor, the deeper I fall. Wanting him. Willing to become his weapon.
But loving a man like Roman means accepting what he is. The blood on his hands. The violence that defines him.
I didn't choose this life in Russia's violent underworld, but I'm choosing to love the man who will become the most ruthless Pakhan Moscow has ever known.
If we survive, together we'll be unstoppable.
*This is a slow-burn dark interracial erotic romance featuring a sweet heroine and a villain hero who truly kills with no remorse*
