She looked so adorable yelling at a man twice her size. Villain lifted her up and Kaia wrapped her legs around his waist. She cutely yawned and laid her head on Villain's chest. Kaia almost fell asleep, letting him take care of her. He lathered her hair in shampoo, skillfully using one hand. The other strong arm held Kaia up firmly. After properly conditioning her hair, he returned her to the shower floor. The petite girl grabbed onto Villain's biceps, almost falling. He made quick work of rubbing soap all over her small frame. It took every ounce of control in him, to not push her up against the shower wall and slip into her heat. When Kaia was completely clean and the soap was washed off, Villain held the shower door open. His tiny girl was tired, and he didn't want her to wait up for him. After giving Villain a sleepy smile, she left him to clean himself. She felt bad when the corner of her eye caught Villain turning the water cold. ♡♡♡♡♡ Mama says he'll have his way with me.

This is a first draft version AND CHAPTERS ARE MISSING. Key chapters with action, sexy stuff, and plot twists CANNOT be found in this version. Please read Russian Roulette: Family secrets [2021 Version] which can be found on my profile To the world he was everything you could want in a man. Tall, dark and handsome. A sharp business profile, respected and with a prestigious family name. He had everything; looks, money and a dangerous sexual attraction. In the underground he was known as The Dragon. Leader of one of the largest factions of the Russian mafia with claims all over Europe. Ruthless, cold and ruled his territories with an iron fist. When he wanted something, he went for it and he did not know how to lose. She was what he wanted. In his bed. He was coming for her and she had nowhere to run. She could fight all she wanted. He was everywhere and had all the connections to get to her. All her secrets and running from him would be to no avail. He would discover why she was running and then take her as his. It was only a matter of time before he would have her tied up in his bedroom begging for him. Unless he for once had met his match... 18+ Strong language, graphic violence and explicit sexual content of the BDSM variety consensual/non-consensual. I don't do chapter warnings about the above-mentioned things, know that it's in there. Read at your own discretion.
