Cruel Promise

I was given a choice: either die or be sold to a monster.

I chose the monster.

Nikolai Petrov, feared Bratva ruler, is now my husband.

After my father sold me to him, my life became his.

I am now the property of a scary Bratva man.

But Nikolai has secrets of his own.

Secrets that could make me hate him…

Or make me love him.

He terrifies me.

But he also awakens something inside of me.

Desire. Lust. Love.

My husband is a cold man.

Yet, there’s something within him that I see.

The question becomes:

Can I truly love the beast if he can’t even love at all?
