Phoebe
I had always been quiet and shy.
Until I wasn’t, I had to hide my true self behind a shield.
Doing what my family requests without complaint even if I didn’t want too.
He was supposed to be an arrangement.
Married in name only.
An alliance between the Greek Mafia and the Bratva
I was not meant to fall in love with him.
But I did and he didn’t feel the same.
He’s having a child with someone else.
He broke the terms of our contract.
It is now void.
And I do the only thing that makes sense to heal my broken heart and get away from my father.
Run and finally become the person I was always meant to be.
Alexandr
It was an arranged marriage.
To strengthen our Bratva.

For Family and my younger brother who got stuck as a leader when it was supposed to be my job.
It was the least I could do.
But I wasn’t expecting my bride to be the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.
She made my cold heart beat.
I thought we had a connection.
I wasn’t expecting her to disappear.
I wanted to find her to punish her.
But then I realised it was all my fault, now I want forgiveness, to have my love back.
When in the end getting forgiveness is no easy feat when I am the one being punished for my sins.
