Carina Romanov is a 27 year old business woman.  Her Russian parents, Boris and Nadia Romanov, adopted her when she was 5 from an orphanage in New York.  Ever since then she has called Brighton Beach her home.  She had seen and heard many things through the years but what made Carina a favorite was the fact that she was loyal and trustworthy.  She never revealed any of what she'd been privy to.  When her parents decided to retire she took over Romanov's, their restaurant, remodeled it and made it an even more popular spot among the locals, especially anyone in organized crime.  When Carina was 10 her mother told her that she would be betrothed to someone in Russia.  Dimitri Alexandrov.  Their families had been connected for many years and because Carina had been in this type of life for years it was not a shock to her.  For 17 years she would get letters, phone calls and sometimes packages from Dimitri but she'd never met the man.  She was always told that one day he would just show up and her new life would begin...but until then she would have to settle for images that the sound of his voice would invoke, learn to trust him to keep her safe and forgive those closest to her for keeping her in the dark regarding her adoption.  She would soon be in danger from things she didn't even know about, from people she didn't even know and a biological father who wanted her dead.

ONGOING, SLOW UPDATES. Thank you for reading though! As a young girl you had always believed that monsters as they seemed, were always big creepy things, with sharp teeth and long claws. Piercing eyes and mouths wide enough to swallow you whole. But one thing you didn't realize is that, monsters aren't what you had always imagined them to be. They are real. And sometimes, they're a lot closer to you than you think. 18 year old Hana is forced into moving across the country to a foreign land, full of people she doesn't know, just for her father's business. She fears that she won't ever fit in, but that all changes when she comes across a mysterious boy, whom she can't seem to get enough of. Secrets are revealed, blood is shed and tears are cried but does Hana have what it takes to live this life she's been thrown into? Or will her depression swallow her whole as she fights to keep her head above water. "The mafia it seems is no place for a girl like you" "I'd rather die than be seen with the likes of you" "I can't! "I can't do this anymore. You lie you cheat you do everything in your power to make me not trust you! I've just found out you were using me and for what? To what end? Huh?" You scream into the boys face but he doesn't even flinch. His eyes still dark and stormy pools. "I trusted you. Maybe even loved you! What am I? Just a fucking toy to satisfy your musings?" You can't help but let a tear to slip down your flush cheek, allowing it to leave a warm traitorous trail down your face that cools and dries upon contact with the air around you. "Maybe that was the old me, but you aren't just a play thing now. You're my world"

And so he did. He kidnapped his parents killer, brutally tortured them, and lit them on fire. Later he left the country and fled to a foreign island that belonged to his parents in the middle of the Kara Sea within the Russian province. His parents were over the hills wealthy. This wealth caused his parents death and made his childhood a living hell but when he got it handed to him the day he turned 18, he lived very comfortably. 5 years after him and his gang (known as the scar reapers) killed his parents killers and returned to their island, he gets an unknown message about a young boy in a similar situation that he was in so he goes out of his way to go and adopt that boy and have him as an heir to his madness. Through all this though, he was not alone. He had his sister, Ophelia. Who was only a baby at the time of her parents death. She was separated from her brother at the foster home but after he turned 18, he ran to go and adopt her. She would've been the heir but she was too soft, light hearted and very affectionate unlike her brother who was the exact opposite. Later on, after he meets the boy, he meets the boys older brother who would change his life for the better? Or for the worse?

Nobody knew his last name, but they knew his name and also that he was the right hand of the most feared and powerful Mafia, not just in Russia, but in the entire world, and that was enough. With a Greek God like body, he had women throwing themselves at him and he made sure to enjoy every bit of the attention that he got, for he was no saint, he was a player! Apart from being the protagonist of every woman's wet dreams, he was also everything that a Mafia's right hand should have been. He was ruthless. He was cruel. He was a fucking killing machine! Everybody feared him and the only thing that he feared was...falling for his best friend's little sister. Scarlett Knight... She was your typical rich, spoiled brat. Growing up in a Mafia family, with an overprotective father and an equally overprotective brother, wasn't easy, but she learnt to live with it. With an innocent face and drop dead gorgeous figure, she knew, she turned heads wherever she went. Having seen enough bloodshed and violence all her life, her heart has turned cold, but the only time her heart warms up is...whenever she sees him. Her childhood crush. David... But too bad, he sees her only as his best friend's baby sister...or so she thought. Little did she know that...she was His Favorite Scar...imprinted, not just on his heart, but on his soul as well. A love story awaiting to bloom...a secret awaiting to destroy it. ••• Spin-off to "Loving The Russian Mafia" & "Scars On Her Soul" Can be read as a stand alone book, but I would suggest reading the above mentioned books first, to understand this one better.
