Hi everyone.This is my very first novel and here's what y'all need to know.

The series will be a Dark romance. Which means you'll encounter different kinds of world, plots, and Twisted Love. This series will progressively become darker as the story goes.

These stories are mainly focused on the lives of the Female leads and the Male leads twisted way of loving them. This is the Female leads point of view. There would be chapters where there are Male leads point of view or side characters but mainly this is the Female leads point of view.

These stories will show the Acceptance, Forgiveness,  and Long lasting Farewells.

The first book "Be mine" will show Acceptance. Where one person accepted the others twisted love. Accepted them from being what they are and not for what they made.

The second book "Always Mine" will show the process of Forgiveness. The process of forgiving someone who had hurted you deeply.

The third and last book "Can't be Mine" will show a Long lasting Farewell. Goodbyes that can't be said and can't be forgotten. Goodbyes that will left a wound that always bleed.

The series is a Dark romance that includes the Russian mafia Bratva, La Costa Nostra or Cosa Nostra, and the Yakuza at the same time. These organizations are gonna play a big role as these are one of the danger that's awaited the characters.

The stories will contain Mafia, Illegal activities, Underground organizations, Mental issues, Disturbing acts and situations, Matured acts thats not suitable for young readers, Manipulation, Twisted belief, Danger, Unaliving, Tortures, Physical abuse, Mental abuse,Betrayal and more.

But also on the good side there will be funny side characters. Characters that will lift the mood up. And yes the story will have multiple languages such as Russian, Italian, Japanese, Tagalog and more.

This series will also consist of Medical facts. Especially as some characters are doctors and geniuses. There would be also some Disturbing facts, and some "how the h#ll did you know that? " facts.And don't worry about the languages I'll translate then so you all can understand. But there will be some that won't be translated as the conversation might have spoilers.

Dedication:

 this stories are for the girls who wants to be treated right. For the girls who are mentally a sl#t, but physically and emotionally afraid of men. For the girls who want their man on his knees begging.

   Loud sound of gun shot echoes trough the shooting room.Three men stand,focusing on their own targets, own goals and own life. Those three are the future Pakhan, Godfather, and Oyabun...

"Trainings over" a man with sharp features, strict face, and a scar on his brow stepped in.As the three men took of their gears, one spotted something interesting—or should I say someone. One went closer to it. "Who is she? " one questioned eyes still lingering on the new born child.

"She's my granddaughter, Kazimir" the man said kneeling to Kazimir's height."May I have her name" not a request but a command from the kid. "Surely you can,her name is Hiraya" the man said gently, taking the cap that's been covering the baby's face. "What an odd name, it's not even Russian" One of the remaining two remarked.

"Shut it" Kazimir roared.

He looked back the child,looking afraid he startled the little princess—his little princess.But Hiraya didn't react.That filled Kazimir's heart with something he can't quit explain.With trembling fingers, Kazimir gently caresses little Hiraya's face.The child slowly opens her eyes.

Kazimir as intimidating as ever prepared himself to hear loud cries. Reality hit him when Hiraya hold his fingers and smiled at him.He didn't expect this.He expected rejection...Not acception.

"Vladimir, I want her" Kazimir declared.Vladimir was shocked at Kazimir's usually cold face appeared a smile.Vladimir is stuck of being happy or to be frightened as the future Pakhan claimed his granddaughter.

Considering the danger of the life he chose.The very reason his own daughter run away leaving her daughter in her father's care.The very reason why this child wouldn't know her real father.

"Kazimir my granddaughter is only a few months old and your already 10 years old, you two cannot be" Vladimir's voice was laced with venom.Threatening Kazimir.But the 10 year old's face didn't even showed any sign of fear—actually he was still smiling and admiring the baby girl in his trainer's arm.

"I don't care of what you said, I want her—" Kazimir haven't finished his sentence when a man went inside and interfered. "You can't just go around and claim a child yours, Son." Kazimir's father then went behind him facing the baby girl and her grandfather, Vladimir. Kazimir's father gesture for Vladimir to stand.

As Vladimir stand,Hiraya's grip on Kazimir's hand lossen making her cry.Vladimir already experienced,comforted his granddaughter. But it didn't worked...

"Down" Kazimir order with his undeniably dark presence and strong aura."Son you don't even know how to hold a baby let alone comfort one-" Kazimir shut his fathers mouth with a deadly glair.

"Get down Vladimir,I want to see her" He continued. The Pakhan having no clue why his son is acting this way looked at Vladimir whose also confused.After a reassuring look from the Pakhan.Vladimir Kneeled down again letting Kazimir see Hiraya's face.Again he, Kazimir touched Hiraya's face wiping her tears.

The baby quite down.

Both men were surprised, especially the Pakhan who hadn't even seen his Son interacting with baby's before, let alone comfort a crying one.

"See father? She held my hand, she wants me to"

Kazimir's eyes we're still lingering on the baby.

"Your to old for her, she's to young for you."

To delicate for someone who's a crude.

"But father I want Hiraya to be my Madame" Kazimir insists making Vladimir worried as he didn't want his granddaughter to be part of his mess.

After that Incounter,Kazimir will always find a chance to go near baby Hiraya everytime Vladimir brought her.So much so that everyone on the manor knows to always take care and pamper little Hiraya.There would be toys everywhere,fancy clothes, even a customized crib and other baby stuff.

Slowly Kazimir's admiration for Ligaya turned to obsession.

He will never let go of someone who accepts him.As he learned in this world,you'll have to fight every shadow just to get accepted.

Weeks passed, Still the same.Vladimir,wasn't happy. As another assembly was done, Vladimir sat still on his sit waiting for everyone to go out.When the two are left alone the Pakhan took the initiative to speak first.

"I know what you'll say Vladimir"the Pakhan took a sip from his whiskey.

"Korolov, make your son stay away from my granddaughter" Vladimir warned.As the current Pakhan's right hand, that could cause him his life.

Lucky for him their brothers, not by blood but by heart.

"I'll try my best, you know that little devil won't let go of something he wants"

"My granddaughter is not a thing for your child to own Korolov"

" I know that's why I'm helping you find your daughter to confront her and take her child" Korolov sigh.

"His the father isn't he? " The Pakhan continued finishing his whiskey."I mean who else would it be?" Korolov looked at Vladimir teasingly.

"You knew and you didn't stopped them"

"She was so happy with him, I can't ruin my daughters happiness"

"Don't worry I'll inform you if I found your daughter.Plus I don't want my Son to have a wife yet, his to young" Korolov waved his hand dismissebly.

" Their both to young " Vladimir corrected him.

"Yeah yeah, whatever you can go now mwuah mwuah. My wife's already here" Korolov smiled Idioticly.

Vladimir rolled his eyes before standing and greated the Pakhan's wife first before going out.

"Solnyshko , I want to be babied" Korolov wained like a baby. Was the last thing Vladimir heard before going to find his granddaughter, Hiraya.

Weeks turned to Months.baby Hiraya is now 7 months old.With the help of her grandfather and Kazimir baby Hiraya can now walk. Vladimir, though happy but still worried about his granddaughters life. As being the future Pakhan's Madame is dangerous. In the 7 months baby Hiraya has lived,more than 10 times she had fallen to danger.That's why Vladimir have no choice but to let Hiraya stay in the Pakhan's manor.

Kazimir on the other hand was dilated.After every training he would snuck in to baby Hiraya's room to play with her.Sometimes Kazimir would bring Hiraya to shopping, walks, and other activities.

That made Vladimir's heart drop.

"I assure you Vladimir, my son will be responsible for your granddaughter" Korolov assured Vladimir as Kazimir took Hiraya again. Without permission.

"I swear your Son is gonna be the death of me"

Korolov laugh and patted Vladimir's shoulder.

" I found Viktoriya, your daughter " The Pakhan started.

"Where? " Vladimir took the sit in front of him.

"She's in the Philippines, I already sent her a letter. She'll be waiting for you and her daughter at the airport in Manila. Prepare what Hiraya needs.Tomorrow night is the flight" Korolov smiled.

"Thank you."

"Oh Vladimir's gonna cry" Korolov teased that made Vladimir frown instead of crying. "Hey your supposed to cry! " Korolov reminded him. "Shut up" was the only word that got out of Vladimir's mouth.

"One more thing. Leave before Kazimir woke up tomorrow."

That night Vladimir went to his granddaughters room and packed all her belongings.And when the clock turned 12 Vladimir hurriedly carried Hiraya out the manor. Went inside the car that was already waiting for them and breathe a sigh of relief. They waited till the sun rises and went inside the private plane.

As the plane was moving baby Hiraya seems to feel something.She cried uncontrollably when the plane is in the air. Vladimir tried calming down Hiraya, nothing work. It was, as if Hiraya doesn't want to leave...

By the time they got to the Philippines Hiraya was still sobbing. When they got out there, a woman with long legs,wavy long black hair, and with a stunning blue eyes ,wearing a below knee sun dress was waiting for them .Vladimir approaches the woman.

"Papa" The woman started. "Viktoriya... " Vladimir hug his daughter with one arm and his granddaughter on the other. "How are you doing docha (daughter)? Is everything alrighty? " Vladimir pulled back.

"How is she...? " Viktoriya looked at her daughter.

"She's alright docha" Vladimir smiled.

"Can I hold her...? "

"Absolutely... " with that Viktoriya took her sobbing daughter from her Vladimir's arms.Hiraya recognizing something stopped crying. Looked at her mother before smiling wide.

After some formalities and a bit of catching up it was time to leave.

"I'll go now docha...Take care" with that Vladimir patted his daughters head and turned around not looking back.

"Papa wait! " Vladimir stopped.

"Are you going to visit? "

"Yes...yes I will docha"

"One more thing...how...How is he? " Vladimir looked at her daughter pitifully.

"Miserable" with that final word Vladimir boarded the plane.

Viktoriya left with her daughter in arms. Silently praying for her father's safe return. As the plane went out of sight, Viktoriya held her daughter tightly and leave together with a nanny the Pakhan provided.

Good bye Papa...

  "Hiraya"

" Dedushka! (Grandfather)"

              I run to my grandfather like a kid and hugged him. He hugged me back and patted my head before approaching Mom and gaved her a big hug.

"Papa have a sit first"  Dedushka sat down and gestured for me to sit besides him as Mom went to prepare food. Even though we have Carmellia helping us, Mom still insisted on helping. Ever since Dedushka found out Mom's health was diterroating he had visited us more frequently. Carmellia even joked that even though Mom was just in her forties, 75 year old Dedushka beat her to it.

I never knew the reason why Mom immigrated here in the Philippines but Dedushka said it was for our safety. I never push harder as I respect them. It's been 19 years since Mom left Russia. I studied here in the Philippines. I learned both Tagalog and Russian. Italian and German in additional.

God forbid a girl to have so much time.

My education here in the Philippines is fine. Im top of my class and now preparing for college. I chose medicine. I wanted to be a doctor to at least help Mom with her conditions. Curriculums here weren't that hard so I quickly learned, I even made a few friends.

Because of my features, people here assumed I was half. Half Filipino and half Russian—well actually I'm completely Russian. Mom dyed her hair so it wasn't obvious. That's why people here were either confused or surprised.

"Vnúchka(granddaughter), I have something for you" Dedushka held a jewelry box. The jewelry box was surely vintage and expensive at the same time. It was not that flashy, it was classy.

"What's that Dedushka? "

"It's from your father" Dedushka whispered.

From my father? I have never even meet him. Why is he doing this now? I mean it's not late but it's late for him and Mom. Considering Moms health, why is he just appearing now?

I took the jewelry box and opened it.Inside, was a necklace. The pendant was a boquet of roses. I'm not quite sure what kind of rose. The necklace alone was silver, the roses being different shades—different crystals and gems. At the back of the pendant was a word written in Russian. "malen'kaya roza" meaning "little rose". The pendant wasn't that big nor to small, just enough to see the words.

Dedushka tooked the initiative to put the necklace on me.

" Dedushka, do you know my fathers name? "

"It's Mikhail, Mikhail Rodimirivich Kholodov" Dedushka then placed his index finger between his lips indicating to stay quite. "Don't tell your Mom I told you".i nodded as an answer. We chatted more —mainly about my career choice and what college I'll go to.

I learned more about my father.Not that much just enough to satisfy my curiosity. But there's something bothering me—my last name. My last name wasn't "Kholodov" , instead it was "Bazilevsky".I took my Mom's last name and not my father. Why...?

Dedushka and I chatted more.

"Dedushka, both my parents are Russian why is my name Filipino? " I asked acting all innocent—as if I didn't learned something I shouldn't.

"It's because your Mom came across that name and thought it was a unique one" Dedushka played along as he saw Mom approaching.

"What are you two up to? " Mom asked with a soft smile. Both me and Dedushka immediately said "Nothing" unintentionally at the same time. "Okay then. Now, stand up the meal's ready" Mom said giving us the suspicious look.

We went to the kitchen, Carmellia was still preparing the table so I helped. I saw Mom and Dedushka went to the living room and talked. I didn't asked why, after all Dedushka was trying to persuade Mom to go back to Russia and get better treatment.

With my help Carmellia and I quickly finished the task. Carmellia was already old so her movements were quite slow.

"Go and call your Grandfather and Mom, Raya"

"Raya" was the nickname Carmellia gave me. Even Mom called me "Raya" sometimes. My classmates to.

"Hiraya do you want to go back to Russia? " Dedushka questioned the moment we all sat down at the dining table. It got me thinking.its not like I don't want to go to Russia it's just that I've grow up here in the Philippines. My friends are here my life is here. But I do.

I do want to go to Russia. I want to experience living in the country I was born. I want to learn and recognize my culture. I want to know more about my lineage. I want to know my rots. Not only for my own gain but also for Mom. She need better treatment.

"I do...I do want to go back to Russia" I smiled bitterly knowing my decision will upset Mom. But it's also for her own good. I don't want her to die. She's all I've got.

Mom sighed and Dedushka was happily stuffing his mouth with food. He even almost choked. Carmellia just chuckled.

"Hiraya go show your grandfather his room" Mom gently stroked my head before I go and lead Dedushka to his room. Dedushka decided to stay for a few days so he could help Mom  move around. Carmellia said my Mom likely inherit her condition from my Babushka (grandmother). Babushka also suffered from leukemia and died from it.

"Hiraya,Vnúchka.Do you really want to go back to Russia? "

"Of course Dedushka. Since I was a kid I was dying to go back to Russia"

"What about your friends? "

"It'll be fine... "

"Your education? "

"I'll apply for a scholarship to a university in Russia so don't worry Dedushka"

"You don't have to apply for a scholarship Hiraya.I can afford the tuition fees. Don't forget you have a rich grandfather" Dedushka smiled Idioticly.

I just rolled my eyes.

"Quit rolling your eyes it might get stuck" Dedushka laugh. "You're wrong Dedushka, rolling your eyes will not cause them to get stuck in a specific position" I corrected him.

"Why are you so smart? "

"You know I like to learn new things Dedushka"

"Right"

"Goodnight Vnúchka"

"Goodnight Dedushka" I smiled and Dedushka messed my hair before closing the door.My hair was short so it quickly messed up.It was already late so I immediately went to my room. When I went inside, there Mom was sitting on my bed. She patted the space besides her and I sat there.

"Do you really want to go back to Russia? " Mom asked gently brushing a strand of my hair. I nodded.She smiled bitterly. "Then prepare your farewells for your friends" she smiled bitterly. With her thin frame and pale face it hurts to see it.

She started at me for a moment before her eyes lingered into the necklace I was wearing. She gently touch the pendant and turn it upside down. Her eyes started to water when she saw the words carved in it. Mom maid me lay down on her lap, at first I was hesitant considering her health but she insists. She started to gently brush my hair with her finger.

"Hiraya did you know, your Dad and I had a promise" Mom spoke after a while. I was surprised. This was the first time she spoke about my Father...

"He got me a necklace with a pendant of a boquet of Eden Rose 85.it has nine pieces, symbolizing internal love. He carved malen'kaya roza on the back.He carved it with his own hands.And malen'kaya roza? That was what he used to call me. " Mom stopped for a bit.

Dad carved "malen'kaya roza" on the back of the pendant? With his own hands?

"He promised to get exactly the same necklace for our future daughter. That was you..." Mom looked at me with her sweet and gentle smile. "That necklace you were wearing used to be mine..." Mom couldn't stop her tears. She sobbed. She sobbed through her smile.

I didn't know what my parents went through but judging from what mom said and what Dedushka told me. It must be tragic. But I'm sure Mom still loves Dad.

I comforted Mom. And after a while Mom spoke again.

" I'm glad Papa gave it to you... " she kissed my forehead before saying goodnight and said " we'll go back to Russia on August 10 " then she went out.

August 10.. That's my birthday....
