Nikolai Volkov

Nikolai is the Pakhan of the Russian syndicate, cold, methodical, and possessed of absolute self-control. To him, Lorenzo is not a monster to be feared, but rather a precious jewel in need of extra protection. Nikolai has a possessive protective nature; he lets Lorenzo play with his "knives," but he is always ready to be the one Lorenzo returns to cleanse himself. He finds Lorenzo's brutal side both adorable and honest.
