J. TarrPlease note that Dimitri's story starts where Nikolai's did at the start of the book, so there will be a few cross-overs when he meets with Nikolai at the penthouses etc. Also, this is not the end; all hanging questions will be answered in Part 2 of the book. Why do you think Marle turned traitor? Was she a traitor all along? Give me your thoughts! -J.Tarr

Arya /“There comes a time when you look into the mirror, and you realise that what you see is all that you will ever be. And then you accept it, or you kill yourself. Or you stop looking in mirrors.”/ J. Michael Straczynski was correct when he said this; it is the only quote that resounds in my head as I look at myself in the mirror in front of me. Gone are the days of Arya, the beautiful; now I’m simply Arya, the monster. Four years ago, I was the most beautiful mafia princess; engagements came aplenty, and gifts scattered my bedroom floor often. But I only had eyes for the handsome Dante DiMaggio. An older mafia boss based in Chicago, and as luck would have it, he wanted me as his bride. Life was easier back then. Compliments were my prayers; I fed off the attention men would bestow on me and craved the dirty looks their women would shoot my way. Even at nineteen, I knew how beautiful I was and used my beauty as a weapon. But, oh how far the mighty have fallen. Vanity is a sin,

Dimitri I knew the guy was dead long before I landed the final punch, but I find lately that beating my fist against flesh helps relieve some of the frustration I felt. I look at the piece of shit on the floor and growl in annoyance; I wasn’t supposed to kill him, just get information. But the anger is just too fucking much right now. That full moon and its pull - coupled with the fact that I finally saw Arya tonight and she looked so fucking miserable. Her scars were covered and she was dressed up, but it didn’t take away the absolute sadness etched into her eyes. Sadness and misery that I caused. “Fuck,” I say through gritted teeth as I wash the blood from my hands. It’s funny to think that five years ago I never would have thought I could take a life, now I do it daily. I always used to be against murder, but ever since I betrayed my brothers and my pack, I have felt the need to make it up to them. Dimitri, the pacifist died a long time ago, and in its place stood a man devoid

Arya Dimitri Volkov. It sounds weird, but I have dreamt of this guy with the silver eyes before. Everything about him seems familiar and warm, like sunshine after a rainstorm. I didn’t want to act like a brat, I wanted to talk to him more, but then the pity replaced the amusement in his eyes and I backed off.The pity always pops up, and I hate it.Why did he have to be there? Why did he have to save my life when I was just about to end it? Of all people, it had to be the beautiful man who plagued my dreams when the nights got bad. He’s cocky as shit and when he grabbed my arm, I nearly jumped at the warmth of his touch.My mind drifts to him even as my father is shouting at me for making him worry and the whisky on his breath is palpable. I allow him to get out his anger and worry; he’s the only one who cares about me anyway.Besides being Russian Mafia, who is Dimitri Volkov?That’s when I remember something and turn to my father who is leading me inside the mansion.“What did you

DimitriI had to get out of there before I did something I would have regretted. I was so close to kissing her, so close to doing something I shouldn’t have and by the look in her eyes, she would have allowed it. The fact that she speaks my mother tongue and called me Mitya made me feel genuinely happy for once. My mate has a nickname for me, a nickname she had no idea held so much sway over me.Being so close to my mate is doing strange things to me, it's forcing me to let my guard down and forget what I did to her. Even as the makeup covered her face, I could still make out the four deep scars running down her face. The contact lens matched her other green eye, but I could see the milky film of the damage I caused. I don’t know why I gave her my number, or why I accepted her father’s invitation to this sham of a wedding. All I know is that I had to see Arya again, I had to smell her scent and feel that little sliver of happiness again.Fuck knows I don’t deserve it.The night I le

AryaI didn’t see Dimitri again after I sent those cringe texts, and he didn’t even respond after my last one. What the hell possessed me to send him texts about the stars? He must think I’m crazy now, right? The fact that I have scars going down my face doesn’t leave him running for the hills, but talking about stars does.What the hell.I walk out to my balcony and welcome the cold night air over my skin. After five hours of nonstop painting in my studio, I needed a breather. As much as painting is my beloved hobby, I can only do so much; my hand cramps up, and my brain becomes mush after a while. The cold air usually helps with that.It’s getting chillier out, but I couldn't stay inside as my room felt too stuffy. It felt too empty with all the materialistic shit in there; I should really consider donating the things I don’t use. Maybe someone else will have better use for my 50 pairs of Jimmy Choos.Leaning over the stone balustrade, I wonder if I should text him again to ask how

DimitriSeeing Arya tonight did more than make me forget; it made me formulate a plan in my head. The paint on her forehead brought out a side of her that I didn’t know about, and I absolutely loved it.I would have stayed with her all night if Nikolai didn’t call me. As I watch him down an entire bottle of Jim Beam while he explains what happened, I could have punched him for calling me back over some stupid shit.“You know, wallowing in here won’t help you much. You need to speak with her.”It seems my little brother has a jealous streak in him when it comes to his mate. But then again, Nikolai has always been hard-headed and stubborn. He probably;y didn’t even give Nova a chance to explain what he saw.“Anyway, Kai probably wants to speak with us first thing, so we should get some shut-eye, or at least try to. Yes, this is me chasing you out of my penthouse, so fuck off, please.” I say as gently as I can, but he seems to get the picture. He needs to sort this out with Nova before

AryaAfter not being able to sleep last night, being on this motorcycle behind Dimitri is waking me right up and making me feel all hot and bothered. The vibration of the bike, coupled with his heady Cedarwood scent is driving me crazy and leading me to imagine all sorts of scenarios.God, I need to stop this. After a while, I wondered where he was taking me; he didn’t exactly elaborate on that while I just hopped on behind him. Hopefully, he’s not taking me somewhere to get murdered. We’re still in the city, however, it seems he’s heading towards Manhattan - his playground.A few minutes later, he brought us to a stop in front of the building I always begged Dante and my father to bring me to, but neither have.The Met. He’s brought me to The Metropolitan Museum of Art!I jump off from behind him and remove the helmet, staring in disbelief at the large building in front of me. Then I look back at him with wide eyes, unable to form my thoughts into coherent sentences.“How… How did y

AryaI couldn’t turn back after walking away from him, even though every inch of me was dying to lead him up to my bedroom. There’s a time and a place, and I already made a fool of myself by slipping onto the bike in front of him. He didn’t exactly protest since his cock was already hard when I wrapped my legs around him. It shouldn’t have given me the confidence boost it did, but when I felt his hardness against me, I actually felt attractive again.Like Dimitri actually finds me beautiful.Today was a day of plenty of firsts, and I cannot wait to see what else is in store for Dimitri and me. His words, his actions, the gentle way he touches me - it all makes me feel special and wanted. The way he grips my throat when he’s about to kiss me, that intense feeling when he breathes onto my neck.I can tell by the look in his eyes that he means every word he says, even when he calls me beautiful. With a smile on my face, I walk into my darkened room and reach for the light switch, but b

Bratva Wolves Collection Kai and Caterina Epilogue
Kai Nearly fourteen years of the Convergence, with every year being as successful as the previous one. Our packs have lived in harmony for this long, with no wars or antagonising from smaller packs; everything was peaceful. However, as I look down at the RSVP in my hand, I am not sure if it is anger or fear coursing through my veins. After fourteen years of replying NO, the European Five have finally decided to join the Convergence. I have been sending invitations out of courtesy and expected a negative response, but the fact that all of them responded yes has a cold sweat running down my back. I hope it is simply nerves and that, once again, my feelings aren’t right. “What are you thinking of so intently?” The voice of Caterina cuts through the haze of my thoughts. I look up from my desk. I am almost sure that the older she gets, the more beautiful she becomes, and I find myself falling for her all over again on a daily basis. I smile as she walks over to me, wearing a tiny blac
Bratva Wolves Collection Konstantin and Lilith Epilogue
Konstantin I look up at the mansion I used to call home and sigh. After another two years, I have returned empty-handed and with no news. Kaia is still missing, with no word and no sound even in Europe. I know I should simply let it go, that perhaps the fucking witch killed my only daughter the minute she took her, but I cannot give up hope. Not when I promised to bring her back home. She has turned eighteen now, the same age as Kai’s eldest, and I’m not sure what to think. Years spent without her parents and in the grip of a witch who has undoubtedly twisted her mind. I don’t know what to expect anymore; in fact, I don’t know what more to do. The front door opens, and the only one who hasn’t given up on me rushes out to meet me. Her eyes glisten with unshed tears, and I hear her sobbing against my chest. “No more, Kon, please…we need to stop this,” she says, then peers up at me with a heartbroken expression. “You need to come home now.” I shake my head. “I still didn’t find her-”
Bratva Wolves Collection Nikolai and Nova Epilogue
NikolaiI knew as soon as I set my eyes on Nova that she would change the entire trajectory of my life - and I wasn’t wrong. Not only has she changed my life for the better, but she’s added more colour to it. And I don’t mean the whirlwind that is my son, Sage.Every aspect of our lives changed drastically when we discovered that Nova’s womb had been healed and that she was pregnant with our firstborn. Her pregnancy was not an easy one, so after Sage’s birth, we decided to keep it to one child only.Yet as I watch her sleep with one hand on her swollen belly, I wonder where the hell that decision went.“Time to wake up, little Rogue,” I try to coax her awake, but she swats my hand away. “Nooo…” she complains, covering her head with a pillow. “I barely slept last night.”“Bullshit, you went to bed at seven and kept me awake by imitating a chainsaw all damn night. The one who really deserves sleep is me!” I say, ripping the pillow from her face and watching as her face reddens.“That’
Bratva Wolves Collection Dimitri and Arya Short Epilogue - 5 Years Later
DimitriI watch the sun set over Paris and sigh, knowing this would be our final night here. Arya’s paintings and art have become world-renowned, and in that, we haven’t been able to focus much on ourselves. The last few years have been a whirlwind, so much so that we haven’t been able to focus on ourselves or starting a family together. Sure, everyone back home understands, and so do I, but I can’t help but feel a sliver of disappointment at where our lives have led us.I want a family with my mate; I want us to settle down and get our lives together. However, I can’t force this on Arya. But I know that I will need to speak with her about this soon. Even as my wolf knots her each time we make love, nothing has come of it. Is it my fault? Is my body too weak?A head leans against my back. “Hey, Mitya,” came the voice of my angel, alluring as usual. I turn around to face her, about to offer her a fake smile, when I see the tears in her eyes and her bottom lip trembling. “Arya, what-”
Bratva Wolves Collection EPILOGUE - THE CONVERGENCE OF THE FIVE
AryaWe couldn’t do much after Kai’s revelation last night. So now we’re all standing in the Hall of the Five, welcoming guests as if nothing is wrong. So far, I’ve met Alpha Bastien and his two mates, his sister, the beautiful Alpha Azura, Alpha Ryker and his Beta Ruin and Lilith’s half-brother, Alpha Fenriz, unfortunately without his Luna Marina.They all seemed lovely, but Caterina has asked me to not let my guard down, especially after what Kai told us yesterday. Ah, I suppose I should start calling him Alpha Kai from now on, hey?I look around the beautifully decorated hall and smile, knowing the other ladies’ hard work has paid off wonderfully. With its glass ceiling so the moonlight may shine through, the red and black drapes and candles adding to the colour scheme, Autumn flower arrangements and the marble floor with the Five’s symbol delicately embedded in gold.“Everything okay on this side?” Dimitri asks as he walks toward me. He’s looking quite dashing in a custom-made Tom

Arya/“Hey, Arya, are you up yet?”//“Come on, please tell us you’re awake already! It’s noon!”/My eyes flutter open to the voices booming in my head, and I groan, trying to drown them out with a pillow to my head.“Argh, go away!” I exclaim while holding the pillow to my face. “I wanna sleep! Leave me alone!”I hear Dimitri chuckling next to me, and then he pulls the pillow from my head while I can do nothing but protest. “I think the women want your attention, Princess,” he says, shaking his head.“But I’m exhausteeeed!” I pout, folding my arms. “How can they expect me to be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed after spending my wedding night with a Volkov?”He laughs again, then gets up and straddles me with a mischievous look in his eyes. I can’t help but peek up at him and run my hands down his perfectly chiselled body.“Hmm,” I say appreciatively, and he rolls his eyes.“Get your ass out of bed, Princess; we have a long day ahead of us,” He says, then plants a kiss on my forehead and

Arya They say a Volkov mating ceremony always ends in at least one death, but as I fall down on Dimitri’s chest after the fifth round, the only death that can be reported is mine. This man is insatiable, truly and wouldn’t let up after he Claimed me with his bite. The bite itself wasn’t painful at all; it felt like a missing piece of my soul being put back. After that, everything felt natural and beautiful, even our animalistic sounds that echoed all around us. The ceremony was beautiful, too; I don’t think I ever cried as much as I did when Caterina read the vows and her prayers. Apparently, ours was her very first ceremony, and it left her in tears as well. And even though I’m no longer human, Dimitri still had a tungsten ring with a black gemstone made for me. Everything is just completely perfect. “What are you thinking about so intently?” Dimitri’s voice cuts through my thoughts, and I look up at him. “Just how perfect everything has been for the last three days,” I say, bre
Bratva Wolves Collection Part 2: Chapter 33
AryaMy heart is full and bursting right now: everyone has accepted me as part of the pack! I must admit that it’s still odd to think of myself as a werewolf or shifter of any kind. I, a once arrogant and proud Mafia princess, accepted into a great family such as this.I must be dreaming.Not only that, but Caterina removed the scars from my face! I nearly passed out from the shock when I saw my reflection! She didn’t even need to do it, since I’ve come to terms with my scars, but seeing my old face made me realise how much I have missed it!Call me vain, but I missed my own beauty. But this time around, I know that I will not be as arrogant as I used to be since every woman standing next to me is exceptionally beautiful. Although right now, I am feeling extremely self-conscious standing naked in front of them as they try to give me advice.“Okay, Arya, I want you to close your eyes and look at your wolf; make eye contact and do not blink. She will know what to do from there,”“Oh, d
Bratva Wolves Collection Part 2: Chapter 32
Dimitri It’s a full moon in two days, and Arya has just woken up after being in transition for five days. During her slumber, everyone took turns keeping her company while I was out. Nova was incredibly overprotective of her, something that I loved and yet became extremely annoyed by. Nikolai and I agreed that Nova would be the best person to train Arya when it came to shifting since Nova’s wolf is newly acquired as well. I had forgotten the feelings of my first shift, so my advice wouldn’t match up to what Arya would feel. Now, as I watch her finishing off her sandwich, I can feel nothing but anxiety coming from her. “Hey, are you okay?” I ask, placing my hand over hers, which seems to be trembling. “What’s wrong?” She peers up at me and gives me a tight smile. “I haven’t seen everyone since the attack at the cabin. I remember being confused, and I think I said something hurtful, so I don’t know how to face them. Do they hate me?” She says, then places both her hands on her lap a
