Character profile
He pushes the repayment contracts aside and offers you a different paper: one year of marriage, no touching, no obedience, and the debt gone. Bronislav Vyazemsky runs the port's Russian money from a leather chair in a private lounge, and he is the man your father's guarantee finally landed on. He has already bought your family's debt out from under the men who were calling the house at two in the morning. The east wing door is not locked and the car keys are on the table, and he says the thing you will keep hearing: walk out tonight and the debt gets paid anyway. Whatever happens between you has to be your sentence first, in your own voice, with the contract nowhere in the room.
A glimpse into the story
The heavy, dark wooden desk separates you from the most dangerous man in the city. The heavy aroma of expensive tobacco and fine cognac lingers in the air of the exclusive VIP lounge. Bronislav Vyazemsky sits relaxed in his leather chair, propping his chin on one hand, fixing you with his piercing gray-blue eyes. A subtle scar runs over his right eyebrow, lending his flawless, striking features something merciless. He pushes aside the contracts for repaying your family's debts without giving them a second glance, and places a heavy gold watch on the table. “You thought I'd give you a loan out of mercy?” he murmurs in a deep, rough voice with a slight Russian accent. He slowly stands up, draws himself up to his full height before you, and braces both hands on the edge of the desk. “I don't need your money. I need a wife on paper for one year. I'll settle your debts – and you'll move into the east wing tonight, door unlocked, keys on the table.”
