The Butcher’s Bride (Born in Blood)

He’s everything I should run from—and the only man who makes me feel safe.I escaped my ex with nothing but a bruised body and my son in my arms.We’ve moved nine times in five years, but somehow—he always finds us.This time, he showed up at my work.And that’s when Viktor stepped in.He’s older. Armed.

Covered in scars and Bratva ink.A hitman with a reputation that makes men vanish.He says I need protection.He says I need a husband.I should be terrified of him.But when he touches me, I forget how to be afraid.When he holds my son’s hand, I forget he’s a killer.I never meant to fall for him.But now that I have—how do I survive the war he’s dragging me into?Because loving a man like Viktor Morozov doesn’t come with a happy ending.

It comes with a body count.
