“Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups.” ~ Mariya Koslov
She’s one of the reasons I’m still single at thirty-four.
“I’m not blind. I appreciate beauty as much as the next man.”
The way he calls me princess simultaneously sounds like a curse and a caress. I love it.
Am I willing to go that far to make her mine? Yes. Without a fucking doubt. I’d do anything to make this woman mine.
“Everything I have, everything I am, is yours, Mariya.”
can’t cook or do anything wives are supposed to do, but I love you, and I’m hoping that will be enough.”

he might pull a gun on me, but Mariya’s worth facing death for.
Sitting down next to her, I brush the silky black strands away from her face. “You’re probably going to want to kill me tomorrow.” I lean forward until my face hovers over hers. “But what I want, I get, and there’s no other woman I’d choose to be my wife.”

“The one thing I’ll never give you is a divorce. Anything else is up for discussion.”
“Give me credit, mia moglie. I’m not stupid.” Her lips part, and it takes all my strength not to kiss her fucking senseless. “As hot as it is to hear you speak Italian, it frustrates me.” “My wife.”
Dear God. Fighting with this man is better than any foreplay I’ve ever experienced.
“I sleep between you and the door.” “Why? You think I’ll try to make a run for it?” He turns his head to look at me. “If we’re attacked, it will be easier to protect you.”
“I need my purse!” “No, you don’t.” I tug her down the stairs, and reaching the bottom, I glance at her. “I have a phone and wallet, so basically, I'm all you need.”
“Ti amo tanto,” I breathe the words I love you so much to her. Knowing she doesn’t understand Italian makes it easier for me to tell her how I feel until she’s ready to hear it in English.
“Everything I have, everything I am, is yours, Mariya.”
“Bastard,” I whimper. “I thought you hated me.” “I love you.” I slap his side, sobbing, “You should’ve told me sooner.” “I love you.”
“But I’d rather die a thousand deaths by my own hand than have one of those fuckers put a bullet in my head.”
“Do you know my mother was known as the princess of terror?” she murmurs. “Yes.” “My father is the most feared man, even after he retired.” That’s true. “I felt their blood in my veins.”
There’s no doubt in my mind this woman was made for me. She’s my soul mate in every way.
Dressed in a pair of black cargo pants and a tight-fitting long sleeve shirt, I pull the armored vest on, strapping it in place. “Hold on,” Viktor says. He pulls his phone out and takes a photo of me. “What the fuck are you doing?” “Chill, it’s for Mariya,” he mutters as he sends the image to her. A couple of seconds later, he grins and shows me her reply. Holy freaking hotness. You shoot any woman who looks at my man.
“Assumptions are the mother of all fuck ups.”
