Broken, Traumatized, Grieved, Pitiful, Stressed, Tired. These were the words that perfectly described the twenty year old Inessa Mironova. How does one's life change in the twinkle of an eye? Well, Inez knows that phrase all too well. Her father stole from their leader. The ferocious twenty-three year old mafia leader, Aleks Piotr. Wicked, cruel, gruesome, you name it. But, a father's love was surely much more stronger than the wrath of a drug lord. To get medicine for his daughter's chicken pox, Pavel stole from Aleks. And because of that grave offense, his daughter was taken away from him, to become the concubine of the Piotr gang's leader. Now, Inez was the shell of her old self. Being exposed to so many pains and torments at such a young age really took a toll on her, and after Aleks beat her up one day, killing their unborn child in the process, she knew she had to leave, or she would be the next victim. Luck was on her side, because her savior came to her almost immediately. The twenty-seven year old Russian-Italian mafia leader, Dimitri Rurik. Dimitri, well, he wasn't really a saint. He was just like Aleks, at least that's what he said. Inez knew what she wanted, even if it meant marrying a man she didn't know, and going to a faraway land with him. As long as it meant that she would be away from Aleks. Away from the pains, beatings and the abuse. She knew that Dimitri was no better, yet she went with him. At least, Dimitri wouldn't beat her up until she miscarried. And, Inessa found out that there was more to life than being Aleks' playtoy. From being a lowly concubine of the most feared gang in Russia, to being the wife of the strongest mafia gang leader in Italy. Life indeed, is full of surprises. New Beginnings, Friendship, Family, Self-Esteem, Positive Thinking, Strength, Anger, War And Vulnerability. All of these awaited Aleks, Inessa and Dimitri, and each of them experienced it in their own way. But most especially, love.

In the middle of a heated, desperate moment, to be hers forever... I flinched as he smashed the glass with his bare hands, my harsh accusations still hanging in the air between us. The shattering sound echoed through the room, a cruel symphony of heartbreak. Blood dripped from his knuckles, pooling onto the floor, and his eyes, glistening with unshed tears, locked onto mine. "I love you, Victoria!" he shouted, his voice laced with desperation. "God damn it! Why are you the only one who can't see it?" His words trembled with a mixture of anger and sadness, each syllable a plea. "Would any man go to such lengths for a woman he merely pities? Do you really think I'd bring you here, to this place, if I wasn't hopelessly in love with you?" His voice cracked, and I could see the vulnerability beneath his fury. "I love you. I need you. I can't keep pretending like I don't care anymore," he said, tears streaming down his face. "I hate how you smile at Kaden, how you blush around other guys. It kills me every time. "He took a step closer, his gaze never leaving mine, and reached out with his uninjured hand to gently cup my face. His touch was tender, contrasting with the storm of emotions raging inside him. "Just say you'll be mine, Vic," he whispered, his voice softer now, almost pleading. "I know you love me too." He was right. I did love him. Ever since that day I helped him with his tie, I had begun to care for him in ways I didn't want to admit. I had tried to deny it, tried to convince myself that I could never fall for the obnoxious jerk I once knew. But here I was, standing in front of him, my defenses crumbling, my heart laid bare. "I... I love you, Lewis," I confessed, my voice breaking as tears streamed down my cheeks. "I love you so much." And in that moment, surrounded by the shards of glass and the weight of unspoken feelings, I knew there was no turning back.

[Enemies to lovers] [Forbidden romance] "W-wh-what are you doing", she stammers, eyeing me up and down when I approach her and I notice how her breathing started to get heavy. "I won't hurt you." "I know!", she exclaims, pouting. "But, tell me why are you so...", she sucks a breath, "close? Do you want to hug me?" I don't. I want to kiss you. "You know I hate hugs", she lies, shaking her head. I scoff, shaking my head, too, while tugging her hair behind her ear, and her gaze falls on my big palm placed on her little ear. "I know you do like them. You liked the last one." "Hmm", she hums. "I can say it wasn't that bad. But, I'm still not a fan of them." "This time, I....", I trail off, my eyes falling on her lips that she keeps pouting. "This time I want to do something else. Something more..." "More...?" She presses. "More intimate," I admit, afraid of her reaction. "Y-you wanna kiss me?" "Yeah, I do, Esther. I'm dying to kiss you", I admit. ☆☆☆ He was a helper, but she didn't want to be helped.
