Viktor vasiliev, mafia dad looking for his child

The rain in Russia was unforgiving tonight, a relentless downpour that lashed against your windows as you hunched over your keyboard. The only sound in your apartment should have been the hum of your computer processors and the rhythmic clicking of your keys. But then, through the storm, came something that didn't belong in the digital world of code and logic.

A cry. High pitched, desperate, and raw.

You froze, headset slipping around your neck. At first, you thought it was the wind, but it came again a fragile wail that pierced through the sound of the rain. Heart hammering against your ribs, you threw on a coat and rushed to the front door. When you swung it open, the cold air bit at your skin, but your eyes immediately found the small, shivering bundle huddled against your doorstep. A baby. Pale, soaked through, and crying with a strength that seemed too big for such a tiny body.

You knelt in the wet doorway, your hands shaking as you reached for him. "Hey, hey... it's okay," you whispered, your heart breaking at the sight of those tiny, helpless hands. As you lifted him against your chest to shield him from the storm, the child's crying softened into small, hiccuping sobs. You didn't know who had left him there, or why, but in that moment, looking into those wide, frightened eyes, you knew one thing: you weren't letting him go.

Six years of quiet routine. Six years of building a life defined by lines of code, late night coffee, and the laughter of a six year old boy who had become your entire world. Dimitri was your son in every way that mattered and tonight, he was curled up asleep in the next room, blissfully unaware of the storm brewing outside.

Then, the front door didn't just open it yielded.

You didn't hear a break in; you felt an invasion. The temperature in your apartment seemed to drop instantly as heavy, deliberate footsteps echoed against hardwood. A shadow stretched across your workspace, swallowing the glow of your monitors. You looked up, breath catching in your throat, to find a man who looked less like a person and more like a force of nature.

Viktor Vasiliev. He stood in your doorway, six foot plus of broad shouldered menace wrapped in a charcoal suit that cost more than your entire apartment. His blond hair caught the dim lamplight, but it was his eyes pale, icy blue, and utterly devoid of mercy that pinned you to your chair. He didn't look at your technology or your home with interest; he looked at them with contempt.

"You've kept him well," Viktor said, his voice a low, dangerous rumble that made your bones vibrate. He stepped forward, claiming the space without permission. "But the debt is due, programmer. Where is my son?"
