THIS BOOK HAS A TOUCH OF DARK ROMANCE AND IS DEFINITELY NOT SUITABLE FOR YOUNG READERS. “Ivan, what are you wearing?” Ruslan growled, his gaze seizing me up. “Clothes, of course,” I replied, trying to sound nonchalant despite my heart thumping rapidly in my ribcage. “I’m leaving for my friend’s birthday party.” “You won’t leave wearing that,” he muttered, his eyes as dark as the night. “Why?” I asked, looking into his eyes and challenging him. “Because no man other than me has the right to see you in that,” he said, his voice low and possessive. ********** I was never supposed to fall for him. He’s my stepbrother, and that’s a line we shouldn't cross. But I couldn’t help myself. He’s a powerful and ruthless man, a Mafia lord with a bad reputation. Yet I’m drawn to him, even though I know I shouldn’t be. As his little sister, I was always off-limits to him, but now, he’s starting to see me in a different way. He looks at me with a hunger that scares me, and I feel like I’m in danger. I’m torn between my loyalty to our family and my desire for him. Our love is forbidden, and it could destroy us both. His world is violent and dark, and I’m not sure I can handle it. Do I follow my heart, or do I walk away from the danger that is him?

IVANA'S POV If Ruslan Fucking Orlov thinks he could make me bend to every of his damn rules, he is so wrong.When it comes to what I wear, I have preference and not even God can change my mind from wearing flower dresses.Hell, I have come to love flowers designer gowns that it has become a part of me now.Out of anger. The anger that lasted for a minute before it wore off, only for me to realise the mistake I created myself. ‘You can go to hell. I would rather look like a fucking plant than to look like an elegant lady, which infact, I'm not.’I already pressed the ‘send button’ before realising what I've done.Ruslan would surely come for me tonight.“Whatever!” I heaved a sigh with an eye roll before shoving my phone back into my backpack.Staring out of the window, we were already at the gate of the college.Once the car got into the college's parking lots, I alighted and made my way into the school.I have no friends other than Aria.Being an introvert, making friends was the h

IVANA'S POV I was lying more often than usual.It became a new trait I portrayed ever since I came to Russia to join Mom’s new family. The Orlovs.Each time my mind drifted back to Roman, I always imagine him fucking Anna on the bed.Different sounds leaving their lips, with them covered in sweats.That imagination created by my shallow mind, caused my heart to bleed and made it even harder to move on.Once the imagination was registered inside my head and imprinted in my mind, it was hard to get it out. No matter how hard I tried to pull myself together and move on, just the way Roman did, it wasn't working.I bet he already moved on like nothing happened. He just wanted to clear his guilty conscience or better still, make it known to me incase I find out that he has been fucking Anna behind my back.If it weren't the case, he wouldn't have broken up with me over the phone, knowing fully well that I was on a different side of the continent and it wouldn't be easy to fly back to New

IVANA'S POV “Let's begin, Miss Ivana.” The voice of a female reverberated inside the office, it was soft and soothing.Seated on a chair across hers, I stared at the woman, who happens to be my new therapist.She is a beautiful lady with Auburn hair and blue eyes. I bet her cheeks would be hurting soon due to the stretch of her smile.I wasn't comfortable around her, maybe because it was my first time.My fingers fiddled with the edge of my sunflower dress as I inhaled and exhaled, trying to calm the dread that rolled through my stomach.The thought of opening up about my past, my trauma to a strange woman who I just met few minutes ago, didn't seat right with me, but like always, I never had a choice.After the breakup with Roman, I haven't been myself and Mom misunderstood it.Ruslan wasn't helping matters also. He always returned to the clan in clothes covered and soaked in the blood of his prey.I've no idea if it was intentional or not, but each time I came across him, the need

IVANA'S POV Ruslan Orlov is not to be messed with.I thought I could break through his ruthless facade and make him change his mind concerning the arranged marriage, but he just proved to me that he was not to be messed with.The chill that rushed through every nook and cranny of my body after he said those words, back at the parking lots, were second to none.He wants to break me, bend me and make me eat from the palm of his hands. My step-brother wanted to do all this to me.Though, I wasn't expecting less from someone like him, but he exceeded my expectations, or more like, I underestimated what he could do.I stood outside the compound, watching as he got into his car, shut the door and drove off.He meant every damn words!Fury flared in my eyes, burning like hellfire. I wished I could burn him alive, until he is nothing but ashes left, but right now, I can't. I don't have such superpowers.He has the upper hands and to survive, I have to abide, eat from the palm of his hands a

IVANA'S POV My heart instantly scampered off at a crazy beat, not because of anything, but because of the thoughts of having sex with a man I share no mutual feelings or barely know.The Orlovs be damned. They're all crazy for forcing such rules on a twenty-one year old college student.I inhaled and exhaled, fidgeting with the hem of my crop top, below the table.No one must see my weakness, most especially, Ruslan.He would pry on it, feed on it and leave me vulnerable.“I'm barely twenty-one years old.” I let out a heavy shaky breath, trying to calm my racing heart. “Lara was eighteen when she got engaged.” Ruslan fucking Orlov always have a word of weapon to counter my attack, no matter how I try to outsmart him or talk my way out.“She was born and raised in the Vipers Clan, but I wasn't. I joined this family barely three weeks ago.” My gaze shot towards Ruslan, whose face was blank without any form of expression.“You will learn. You have to.” His words came out as a command,

IVANA'S POV How did it all got to this? I just couldn't understand.Just three weeks ago, I was a free bird.

He wasn’t playing or joking. He was serious as hell.A sigh escaped my lips, as I stared at the white ceiling up above, lost in thoughts.Who would have thought my life would end up like this?I hate violence to the core, but my step-brother and the whole Orlovs family thrives in violence, conflict, blood, and death.I wasn't fit into their family, but I was shoved in nonetheless.A soft knock

IVANA'S POVThese past two weeks in Russia were probably the worst moments of my life after the death of my father, fifteen years ago.I had gone through hell and was currently going through it, due to the imprinted blood stains that spilled all over the carpet from my father's head.That image remained imprinted in my head for the past fifteen years, despite seeing different therapists.None could help me end my phobia for blood or wipe those memories out of my head.And currently, staying with the Orlovs topped it all. Especially Ruslan, my overbearing step-brother.He always has a way to make me bend to his demands no matter how stubborn I claim to be.And today, was one of those days I wished would remain a nightmare.“What did you just say, Mom?” I didn't quiet catch what she had said earlier, so I needed her to explain it more clearer this time.“Your step-father and step-brother are in discussion concerning your marriage.” Mom said as drank from a cup of hot tea.“You are jokin

RUSLAN'S POVEven before I became the Bratva, after my father's retirement, showing off or flashy parties has unfortunately not been my thing.I hate so much attention. It gives way for jealousy, hatred and the need to kill.But, Igor, my father, never listened to any of my warnings against flashy parties, because at that very moment, he was throwing a month wedding anniversary with Ivory.Who the hell celebrates a month's wedding anniversary?Well, Igor did.He went against my warnings which needed to be heed, even if he was the one in control before me.He was no longer in control, I am.“Don't tell me Dad is throwing a month's wedding anniversary?” Lara whispered into my ear, her arm locked in mine as we made our way down the hall inside the clan, where the so-called wedding anniversary was taking place.“What do you think? Of course, he is throwing a fucking party.” I was mad, and at the verge of bursting. It was taking the last willpower in me to keep my emotions at bay until t
