Dead By Dawn: A Mafia one Night Stand
Lily at age fifteen wanted to be so many things, but a werewolf was never part of it. Actually, she never thought of it either, because this story isn't about Lily at fifteen, nor is it about any damn werewolves.
This story is about 23-year-old Lily Hills, waking up to the dead body of her one-night stand in a motel. The same man, Damien Kalashnikov, was to tie the knot the next morning, and Lily was slated to handle the magazine publishing the glamorous wedding events.
Lily who just wanted an adventurous night for once in her life, was now accused of murdering a ruthless Russian Mafia boss.
Just as all hope seems lost, Dimitri, Damien's identical twin brother and infamous "Beekeeper," saves her, he proposes a shocking solution: a contract marriage, with conditions for both parties to meet. The wedding, initially intended for Damien and his bride, will proceed as planned – with Lily as the new bride.
As Lily and Dimitri navigate their complicated relationship, he commissions her to write his biography. With each passing day, secrets unfold, and shocking truths surface. Their bond deepens, but danger lurks. With a surprise pregnancy raising stakes, it seemed Damien left a souvenir. A Russian Roulette began.
Albeit, a typical Russian will say to you: Когда река молчит, шепчет ли она секреты рыбам? (When the river's voice is silent, does it whisper secrets to the fish?)
Even in silence, hidden truths may be shared, and secrets can be revealed in unexpected ways.
Will Lily, wife to the Omertà Mafia Don ‘The Beekeeper’ eventually find out what happened that night?

Chapter: Chapter 219:00pm‘He really was still out there the whole time?’Lily's heart that was racing slowly returned back to its normal pace as she looked over Gigi's shoulders to find Dante standing there. “Sorry for interrupting you girls, but it's getting late and Mrs Kalashnikov really needs to be on her way home.” Dante's voice was at its usual calm pitch but Lily already knew he was anything but calm on the inside. “I think she should stay, it's alread–”“Okay, that’s it let me get my things.” Lily interrupted, grabbing her purse for the couch and slipping past Gio. Lily avoided Dante's gaze as she walked to the door, feeling the tension radiating from him. She didn’t need to look at him to know he was irritated. His calm demeanor was always a mask, but tonight it was thinner than usual.Gio shot Dante a questioning look, but he gave a small shake of his head. She frowned but didn’t argue, stepping aside to let Lily pass.“I’ll call you tomorrow,” Gio waved as soon as Lily got out. She was

Chapter: Chapter 19Day 2. When the day of death is already decided, the least a man can do is enjoy the countdown.“Make sure she's safe and I swear to the devil if I come back to any single mark on her body then I won't spare you.” Dmitri warned Dante over the phone.Dante was the bodyguard Dmitri had assigned to Lily, he entire life was on the line if anything happened to her and he knew.“Yes sir.”The line went dead soon enough and Dmitri focused back on the scene in front of him.A lifeless body sprawling across the floor. Dmitri had managed to track down a few leads of the people who followed him the previous night.He wasn't planning to kill anyone like he promised but the man kept spitting out nonsense concerning his wife.“Clean this up.”Gabrielle soon flooded the scene with a few capos to clear the mess he had made.Dmitri turned, waking back into the Mercedes Gabrielle had just called for.

Chapter: Chapter 18FLASHBACK….5:30pm.Moscow skyline. “It's about time you came to Chicago.” Dimitri chuckled lowly, “The first Kalashnikov wedding, I couldn't miss it bràt.” “Glad to see you'd be present for my Omertà then.” Dimitri clenched his grip on the phone a little. Damien's ascension wasn't something he was looking forward to. “Alicia hun?” Dimitri asked almost sarcastically.He already knew there was only one reason Damien would want to marry Alicia–being the head Irish mafia's daughter. “Yes.” He simply replied and the next second the line went dead. By the time Dimitri’s private jet touched the ground of Chicago, the city was cloaked in the night's darkness. It was enveloped by wind and chaos filled the air like a familiar song—sirens wailing, neon lights flickering, and the pulse of a metropolis that never slept. But Dimitri wasn’t here for nostalgia. His mind was already running through the logistics of maintaining control over his Moscow operations while playing the dutiful brothe

Chapter: Chapter 17~Back in Dimitri’s Estate~“That's not a very nice way to welcome your husband now, is it tservena?” Lily didn't know why but ever since she woke up her mood had been down. Dmitri had just arrived home since yesterday and he was already in the mood for another tease with his wife.Lily's head jolted to the side as she for the sudden sound of his voice. She was roaming through the halls but she truly hadn't seen him pass by.“I didn't see you…sorry.” Her lips knotted into a thin line.She didn't know why but ever since their visit to his family house, she couldn't help but feel this bubbling in her stomach anytime he was around.Dmitri eyebrows choked up and his playful instincts kicked in. He took two long strides towards her, closing the distance between them in seconds. Their faces were just inches apart. “Do you see me now?“ Lily's breath hitched in her throat at the sudden closeness between them and unconsciously nodded. Dmitri lips tugged to the side as he noticed the tr

Chapter: Chapter 1612:50pm Dimitri's Estate.Maybe being the mafia's girl did have its pros and well a lot of cons. But still it would hurt to have a few thousand enemies. Lily was still recovering from the previous night's shock. She slept last night with just a half mind and her body still on guard, aware of her surroundings or so she thought, Lily had always been a deep sleeper and afterwards she collapsed in bed. “Good morning sunshine or princess?,” Dimitri's cool voice greeted her as she stepped down from the grand staircase. She yawned, her hands reaching to cover her mouth. “I wonder if you'd be able to stay up when we do what couples do cause gosh you're a heavy sleeper.” Dimitri teased. Lily had soon started dozing off as soon as they switched places in the car the previous night and although she tried to keep her eyes open she failed terribly. Lily ignored Dimitri's comment.“Won't you ask your lovely husband how his night was princess?” Lily's gaze shifted to Dimitri's direction. Sh
