Protected and Bred By the Bratva by Jailaa West

Mikhail

Someone used my warehouse. My name. My silence.

They won’t make that mistake again.

I shut it down, sent the women home — except one. She has nowhere to go, no one coming, and a desperation in her eyes I recognize like a language. I don’t want a woman. I want an heir. My father is gone and the Kutuzov name dies with me unless I do something about it.

She’s the something.

I didn’t walk into that auction looking for a way out.

I walked in because I was already out of options.

Mikhail Kutuzov doesn’t want me — he wants what I can give him. A child. A legacy. The contract is brutal in its honesty, and I sign it because I have nothing left to lose. He swears he’ll protect me.

But there are things about me he doesn’t know.

Things I’m not sure I can survive him finding out.

Protected and Bred by the Bratva Boss is a short, dark, instalust novella that ends with a guranteed HEA.
