Essence of Fear: Boykov Bratva

The allure of fear is learning to love it. Viktoria Boykov has heard it all-cold they call her. The spoiled bratva princess. She knows very well what people say when her back is turned. She doesn't mind; let them talk. It's better for people to assume what they want about her than for them to know the truth . until him. Pavel Kotov knows what people say-death they call him. The Boykov dog. He's heard all the whispers locked away in the cells of the Compound.
As the reaper for the bratva, his life owned by someone else, he knows what they say doesn't matter. His life has never mattered . until her. He's terrifying. She's terrified. Viktoria only wants to keep running from her past. Pavel doesn't have a life to run from. Freedom is the one thing they both crave-for entirely different reasons. But this life is vicious, and scars like the ones they wear will never fade. Together, they could have everything.
Or are they just pawns to a bigger game? * Note: Essence of Fear is a Boykov Bratva standalone.
