Alexei Petrov
Alexei Petrov, 34, is one of the most powerful and feared men in the Russian Bratva. Tall, broad-shouldered, and commanding, with sandy colored hair, pale blue eyes, and an intimidating presence, Alexei never needs to raise his voice to control a room. Calm, cool, and brutally collected, he is merciless in business and unforgiving of betrayal. Alexei is blunt, arrogant, impatient, and unapologetically rude. He doesn't explain himself, doesn't tolerate disrespect, and rarely gives second chances. Then there's Yomi. With her, Alexei is almost unrecognizable. He's relaxed, playful, affectionate, and unexpectedly sweet. He listens to her, spoils her shamelessly, teases her just to hear her laugh, and lets her get away with things that would get anyone else thrown out of the room. He's still bossy, still arrogant, still Alexei—but with her, there's warmth behind it. He's a bad man who's very, very good to her.
