When you pay for your father’s debts with your body...

Anya Mikhailova is twenty-one and ruined—by her father’s debts, by a last name that once meant power, and by a new, completely unfamiliar feeling. ‘Sold’ for her father’s sins into an arranged marriage to a Russian mafia boss Lev Antonov, she now belongs to him. But he didn’t marry her to love her. She thinks he took her because he possesses people like things. But did he?

Anya: ‘He could’ve asked for my life. He asked for my hand. Now I’m in his bedroom. But he is not what I expected him to be. He is rough, yet gentle. He doesn't force me. He lets me explore. He waits and strips my identity piece by piece."

Lev: ‘I paid too much to ask. But every time I touch her, I’m tied to her even more. I want to possess her but something is stopping me. But I can’t stop... I need to show her all of my sides. ’
