Prologue
Ignorance Pt. 1
Ignorance Pt. 2
Knowledge Pt. 1

One month shy of his 18th birthday, Yuri Plisetsky cannot face all the things his chaotic life has to offer. His mother lost in a whirlwind of beautiful lies, he is left to fight on his own in this cruel world.

What he doesn't realize is that life will soon change for him, and this cycle might finally reach its end, found in the arms of a stranger with his own pursuit for freedom.

Translations/Author's Notes:

Ya lyublyu tebya/я люблю тебя = "I love you"

Bratva = the equivalent of the mafia in Russia

A/N: If you have any questions regarding Vitaliya or Dmitri, feel free to send them my way. Being the characters who represent the adults/parental figures in Yuri's life, I wanted to present the dysfunction right away. Be prepared to find out more of their past in future chapters!
