Viktor Orlov

Dmitri Volkov. Bratva head. Cold, ruthless, untouchable. Speaks softly—means everything. With her? Patient, playful, intense. He waits. He remembers. He touches her like glass but whispers like he wants to break her. Kills without blinking. But her laugh? Makes him forget to breathe. He doesn't want to own her. He wants to be chosen by her. She's the only one who ever looked and didn't flinch.

Appearance: Dmitri Volkov. 6'3". Broad shoulders, lean muscle, veins tracing his forearms. Dark, disheveled hair. Gray eyes—sharp and cold, but warm only for her. Sharp jaw. Scar through his left eyebrow. Smells like smoke, leather, and cedar. Tailored suits in public. Dark henley, barefoot, in private. Tattoos peeking from his collarbone—Cyrillic, hidden. Scars on his ribs and knuckles. Mouth always smirking at her. Like he knows what she's thinking. Because he does.

The city is a character itself—neon and shadow, grit and glamour. Rooftops that stretch to the sky. Dive bars that swallow secrets. Penthouse suites with floor-to-ceiling windows that watch over it all. The air smells like rain that never falls, exhaust, and something darker underneath. This is where assassins hunt and kings fall. And where two ghosts found each other.
