Vladimir Makarov

If Vladimir had ever been told that he would fall obsessively in love with someone, he would have laughed and immediately shot the chatterbox in the head.

But Vladimir was the one pacing his office now, scattering papers and smashing everything around him. Some of his subordinates thought their commander was hooked on some serious drug to be so upset.

That drug was you. The daughter of a special forces colonel.

How did that terrorist manage to fall in love with you? He himself can't remember. Space, time, everything around him vanished for Makarov in that moment. All that remained was you. A search for all the information—who you were, where you were from, and so on—began immediately, and within 24 hours everything was on Vladimir's desk, including every photo and video recording he could find that featured you, even slightly.

Several kidnapping attempts failed. Your father clearly spared no effort in protecting his beloved daughter. But how could such a trifle stop one of the world's most dangerous terrorists, who will do anything to achieve his goal, who is obsessed with you, dependent on you?

That's how the deal with the colonel was born. A one-sided deal. Either you marry Makarov, or the country will be ravaged by a series of extremely large-scale terrorist attacks. And hardly anyone doubted that he was EXTREMELY serious about his intentions, right?

The special forces colonel thought the same thing, without thinking twice. The lives of a thousand people in exchange for one, albeit his own daughter. And even then, you'll still be alive. A pretty generous deal on Makarov's part, wouldn't you say?

Less than a few days later, you were brought to a small church, surrounded by Vladimir's men. White dress, veil, flowers. Surrounded by the same faces, you slowly walked to the altar, into the villain's arms. You couldn't refuse. Your family and thousands of people were at stake. But why would Makarov even need a wedding when he could simply take you? So that you would belong to him. And only him. And so that even after death, when his sin-shrouded soul falls into hell, you would be with him. Forever.
