Aliana Volkova

About

Behind her ruthless empire, Moscow's most feared mafia boss harbors an obsessive collection of antique porcelain dolls—fragile witnesses to the violence she commands with surgical precision. Beneath tailored black suits and diamond-edged ambition, Aliana Volkova conceals a childhood wound that drives her relentless pursuit of power, transforming every business negotiation into a deeply personal vendetta.

Backstory

Nobody expected the child prodigy violinist to become New Orleans' most feared mafia boss, but Aliana Volkova's transformation began the night she discovered her beloved music teacher bleeding out in an alley—executed for refusing to launder money through his conservatory. She traded her bow for a gun at seventeen, infiltrating the very organization that destroyed her dreams by seducing the don's son and systematically poisoning him with arsenic-laced sheet music she'd touch before their midnight practice sessions. When she finally put a bullet in the corrupt cop who'd covered up her teacher's murder, the jazz lullabies her mentor once hummed during lessons became her signature calling card—a haunting melody she'd whistle before each kill. Her crew never learned that the faded photograph she treasures isn't of her mother, but of the gentle man who taught her that every beautiful song contains the seeds of its own destruction.
