Beauty So Cursed

A bride is sacred whether given or...stolen.

Once upon a time...
With every end comes a new beginning.

I'm an enigma of a man with two sides. The same violent blood that's in the Russian mafia, the Solntsevskaya Bratva lies in my veins. I'm told I could be the new Pakhan.

There's a young scarred beauty in the kingdom, Lada Sokolova with bright sightless eyes, a noble Mafia princess.

The fairest in the kingdom. Her marks go deeper than the ones carved on her face. I see her, and the pain in her eyes mirrors my own. They say she was supposed to be betrothed to my family.

She's too young for me. I'm twelve years her senior so I reject her. Now, she's getting married to a brutal Vor who's more than twice her age. It's been decided, and I can't interfere.

I do the one thing I shouldn't have, putting my life on the line.

I take her. I kidnap a bride in her wedding dress. I'm only doing what's right, protecting an innocent.
....even from the predator inside of me.

Welcome to New York's Underworld.

Loosely based on the fairytale. An age-gap romance about how much you would risk for the one you love.
