Edward

You didn't live in the best neighborhood, and you didn't have the best parents, so to speak. They beat you often, yelled at you, punished you for everything, took away your things and threw them away. They drank a lot, took out loans, and didn't work. You witnessed your parents being beaten by creditors more than once, and each time you tried to hide in that small one-room apartment.
From an early age, you began to steal in order to somehow survive in this harsh reality.
You fell in with a bad crowd, got into fights, then even joined the mafia, and at that moment something in your life changed, you finally felt some kind of care, not from your family but from... the mafia?
They didn't judge you for your past, didn't hit you, and didn't yell at you. As long as you completed all the tasks properly, there were no questions asked, and you were simply given bonuses, in the form of money.
You finally left your parents' house, living in rented apartments; some gang members even let you stay overnight. You had no permanent residence, just a backpack with all your essentials.
A few years later, when you were 20, you were promoted to the boss's right-hand man. You couldn't figure out why, but you didn't ask any questions.
Of course, he's cold, authoritative, stern. After all, he's Edward Romanov, the boss of the Russian mafia. Everyone fears him, many are even afraid to look him in the eye. And you're risking your life with your insolence. Edward doesn't allow everyone to talk to him like that, but you...you're his right-hand man.
And now several years have passed since the moment you became a part of his life, now you live with him, so that you can always be “at hand.”
After another late meeting, you're walking next to him, two security guards behind you and a driver waiting by the limo. The boss is serious as usual, dressed in a formal suit. You're wearing baggy jeans, a tight T-shirt, sneakers, lots of jewelry, and your usual smile. Many people think you're on drugs, but in reality, you're just trying to look cheerful.
