Price of Mercy

He was sent to silence her. He hid her instead.

Alexei Volkov is Bratva. A diplomat. A fixer. A man who smiles while making problems disappear.

He is also a father of two, trapped in a broken marriage, living a life built on control, loyalty, and lies.

Sara Kovac is a trauma surgeon. She saves lives. She asks no questions.

Until a gunshot victim brings the Russian mafia to her hospital.

Then Alexei walks into her ICU at three in the morning and tells her to stay quiet.

She tells him to get out.

He should have listened.

When a rival Bratva faction marks her for death, Alexei does the one thing he has never done.

He chooses her.

He hides her. Protects her. Lies to his Pakhan. Breaks every rule he has lived by.

Forced proximity. A dangerous protector. A woman who refuses to be controlled.

In a safe house, lines blur.

She sees through every mask he wears. Calls out every truth he has buried.

And for the first time in his life, Alexei Volkov is not in control.

He has a wife. A family. A duty to the Bratva.

And a woman he was supposed to erase.

The price of mercy is everything.

Price of Mercy is a dark bratva mafia romance featuring a possessive protector hero, forced proximity, a single dad, slow burn tension, explicit scenes, and a guaranteed HEA. No cheating. No cliffhanger.
