The Mafia Princess' Ex-Husband

Leona Vetrov, the heiress of the most prominent criminal family became the 'tea' of the high society when she married the orphan her family had taken in years. It took her a betrayal to realize that the stab that cripples a person always comes from someone they trust and love blindly― her husband. After two years, they encounter each other again and in the face of danger, they rely on each other to survive. She is keen on keeping him away but her ex-husband seems… weirdly stubborn? He stops at nothing to win her back and make her his, all over again. As they grow close, Leona discovers bizarre secrets about herself that leaves her in shambles. The shadows of the past threaten to rip them apart and strange occurrences make them realize that the reality of their world and their lives is not as simple as they had known it to be. Will they clear their misunderstandings and face the dangers together or will their second-chance encounter go down in flames, forever marking the end of the possibility of them? … Excerpt: ‘’Marry me.’’ Leona glared at the man who had the audacity to say those words, ‘’I can’t wait to kill you and you have the audacity to ask me to marry you. Aren’t you afraid I would kill you when you are sleeping?” ‘’I don’t mind.’’ ‘’Get lost!’’ she snapped. A few days later: The man lowered his head, looking deep into her eyes, his gaze sincere, ‘’Marry me.’’ Leona looked at the man speechlessly and waved her hand, ‘’You are my ex-husband.’’ Although they were on better terms now, but there was no way they were getting romantically entangled ever again. An eternity later: ‘’Won’t you marry me?” Leona looked at the man who was standing at a little distance from her, tears brimmed in her eyes as she spoke, ‘’I am in a pathetic state and I might implicate you too. I don’t know what’s happening to me and I don’t know what the future holds. I don’t even know who I am or what my past is…’’ The man covered the distance between them and wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her closer, ‘’Do I look like I care?” As his words fell, her lips were captured in a fiery kiss that knocked the breath out of her.

To love someone who doesn't love you back

''No need,'' Mila shook her head. 

''Sister-in-law, even if you pity him for losing his mother at a young age, you can't defend him all the time. This child becomes more and more wild with time.'' 

Mila gazed at the woman, ''It's not that I am defending him. He has been like this since he was young. He cut a gardener's fingers when he was young because the servant accidentally sprayed some water on his shoes when he was passing by.

I wanted him to be grounded but you said he is a Vetrov and if he takes it upon himself to discipline a servant, he can do that.'' 

''He is a Vetrov and he can cut the fingers of a servant or kill the servants at his will. But what he does with outsiders or the servants is different. He cannot behave in this manner in front of us. And Zayden is not even a servant, unless you are suggesting that.''
