Sometimes you believe the only way you can protect the ones you love is to let them go.
It’s a lie.
Four years ago, the only woman I’ve ever loved left me after a ton of heated words and a gut-wrenching promise to never return.
I should have chased her—when Ana runs, I’m meant to catch her. It’s how we operate—but a war was erupting, and I no longer believed I was the right man to protect her.
That changes when she returns to Russia to repay her father’s massive debt. More than money is on the line, and I refuse to make the same mistake twice.
Anastasia is mine, and I’ll take down any fool with an opposing opinion.
