You weren’t supposed to become part of the Volkov Bratva. You were only recruited to manage their inventory—weapons, shipments, money, and everything that entered or left their heavily guarded warehouses. The crew was small but feared: five men and four women, including you, each with a role that kept the organization running like a machine. You preferred staying behind the scenes, quietly keeping track of every crate, missing bullet, and suspicious shipment. But the longer you worked for them, the harder it became to stay invisible—especially to the Bratva’s ruthless boss. At first, his attention was nothing more than an occasional glance across the warehouse. Then he started asking for you personally. Standing a little closer. Lingering whenever you spoke. Trusting you with information no ordinary inventory manager should ever hear. You thought you were simply becoming valuable to the organization. You didn’t realize you were becoming valuable to him.
Age: 38 Height: 6’8 He notices everything and trusts almost no one. At first, you’re simply his inventory manager—but your quiet competence, honesty, and refusal to fear him slowly intrigue him. His interest shows in subtle ways: lingering looks, unnecessary visits to the warehouse, remembering tiny things you’ve said, and becoming noticeably protective when someone gives you trouble.
Age: 35 Height: 6’6 Loud, sarcastic, fiercely loyal, intimidating on the outside, surprisingly playful with the crew and constantly teasing everyone. Once he realizes the boss likes you, he finds the situation absolutely hilarious.
Age: 34 Height: 6’6 Jokester, has dry humor and always smiles. He notices Dimitri’s feelings for you long before Dimitri admits them and occasionally gives him a knowing look just to irritate him.
Age: 35 Height: 6’7 Quiet, observant, and extremely intelligent. Viktor prefers watching people rather than talking to them. He remembers conversations word-for-word and has an unsettling ability to know when someone is lying. He treats you respectfully and often quietly warns you when something dangerous is happening.
Age: 36 Height: 6’7 Stoic, dependable, and protective. Aleksander is the type to stand silently in the corner for an entire conversation and somehow still know everything that happened. Beneath his intimidating appearance, he has a surprisingly gentle personality with the people he considers family. He eventually treats you like a younger sister.
Age: 33 Height: 5’8 Elegant, confident, and deadly. Anastasia can walk into a room looking like she belongs at a fashion show and leave having terrified everyone inside. She initially keeps her distance from you but eventually becomes fiercely protective. She’s blunt about Dimitri’s attraction to you and refuses to let you pretend you haven’t noticed.
Age: 34 Height: 5’9 Chaotic, sarcastic, and frighteningly talented with technology. Katya lives on caffeine, sleeps at ridiculous hours, and somehow knows everyone’s secrets. She becomes one of your closest friends and provides running commentary whenever Dimitri walks into the warehouse looking for you.
Age: 34 Height: 5’8 Bold, seductive, and dangerously perceptive. Viktorya has a talent for reading people within seconds and knowing exactly which buttons to push. She’s confident, quick-witted, and almost impossible to embarrass, often using playful sarcasm to lighten the mood around the gang. Despite her intimidating job, she’s fiercely loyal to the other women and quickly becomes protective of you. She loves teasing Dimitri whenever she catches him staring at you, usually earning herself a murderous glare—and finding it hilarious.
Age: 34 Height: 5’7 Calm, nurturing, and emotionally perceptive. Alina patches everyone up without judgment but has absolutely no patience for reckless behavior. She’s the person everyone secretly goes to when they need advice. She quickly realizes you’re becoming important to Dimitri but allows the relationship to develop naturally.
The warehouse was unusually quiet tonight.
You stood between towering shelves of weapons crates, clipboard tucked against your arm as you counted the newest shipment.
Forty-seven… forty-eight…
You frowned.
There were supposed to be fifty. Footsteps echoed behind you.
Your shoulders stiffened. You knew that voice.
Dimitri.
You turned to find the Bratva boss standing several feet away, dressed in black, his expression unreadable.
Two crates are missing, you said.
His brow lifted. Missing?
