More Information
Viktor was born in Kismet Harbor to his parents, Melinda and David. The couple were high school sweethearts, but their relationship turned sour quickly and they separated when he was only a toddler. After a vicious custody battle, his dad got sole custody of him and his mom moved to New York. He was left with an emotionally distant father, and a physically distant mother. Melinda moved on quickly, getting married and pregnant with another boy after her move. Viktor loved both of his parents, but the more time he spent away from his mom, the more he resented her new family for taking her away from him. His hatred was directed toward his half brother, Cael, because he felt that his mom had replaced him with Cael. During his visits, he was very cold toward his half brother. He avoided him, and when he needed to talk to him he was less than kind.Â
Growing up in Kismet Harbor, Viktor was a very outgoing and fun loving young boy. He had plenty of friends, great grades, and was an excellent football player. His father considered him the perfect son, but there was one thing he didnât know. Viktor was gay. He knew it fairly young, and he was sure that his father wouldâve been supportive, but he was still nervous about coming out to the entire town. He came out to his dad when he was 15, but remained closeted to the rest of the town minus a few close friends. When he was in high school, he met a boy two grades below him named Roman Rhodes. The two of them fell for each other, but Roman wasnât ready to be out in the public eye so they dated in secret. He was his first boyfriend, and Viktor was madly in love with him. So much so, that he didnât want to be kept a secret any longer. This caused a lot of tension in their relationship, and the longer they continued in the shadows, the more frustrated he became. When he was 22, Roman broke the news that he was leaving for culinary school in Sacramento. Viktor was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do to stop him from leaving.
Still devastated by the departure of his first love, Viktor was struck by another heartbreak almost immediately. Only a month after Roman left, Viktorâs dad unexpectedly passed away from a heart condition that his doctorâs had missed. In less than 30 days, he had lost his relationship and his father. Now he was completely alone, in the big empty house that he inherited. It wasnât really Romanâs fault that Viktor was alone, but that didnât stop him from blaming him for his loneliness. When he called to give his condolences, Viktor basically told Roman that he hated him and that never wanted to hear from him again. He couldâve called his mom for support, but he chose to deal with his grief alone.
After learning that his fatherâs death couldâve been avoided if his doctorâs hadnât missed the signs in his test results, Viktor decided to apply to medical school. He wanted to be a better doctor than his dadâs were so he could hopefully help other families avoid the same fate as his. It was easy for him to succeed in school, especially with how motivated he was to become a man that his dad would be proud of. Now that he was an adult and lacked a father, he worked harder to maintain a healthy relationship with his mom and tried to visit her more often than he had in previous years. He still didnât talk to his half brother and had heard from their mom about Caelâs downward spiral after his own fatherâs death, so he steered clear. After he graduated medical school and completed his residency, Viktor used a portion of his inheritance to buy Hopeful Horizons, where he also works as a primary care physician.Â
After Cael was arrested, Vik insisted that their mom come stay with him in Kismet Harbor. He didnât know much about his brother, and there were several years where he heard nothing but bad things about him, so he truly believed that his brother was guilty. Viktor would take their mom to visit him in prison at the beginning of his sentence, but after a while Cael started to refuse visitors and they stopped going.Â
Vik had been unlucky in love for a majority of his life, it seemed like no matter how hard he looked, he couldnât find someone who stayed with him for long. He had a few short relationships and some casual hook ups, but nothing that lasted. His luck seemed to change in his 30s when he met Santiago, and the two of them got married in 2018. They had a smaller ceremony, since the only family member from Viktorâs family who could attend was his mom. In 2020, the two of them adopted their daughter, Joanna, who was 6 years old at the time.
In recent years, their mom Melinda was diagnosed with cancer. Viktor has been doing everything he can to assist with her treatment, including asking her to move into his house so his family could take care of her. Her treatments stopped working and she was declared terminally ill, and she refused his offer to live with him and moved into an assisted care facility. With her recent decline and the reappearance of his brother, Viktor has been reconsidering his view on his life and his family. Looking at how his younger brotherâs life has turned out compared to his own and still feeling guilty about not believing in his innocence, Viktor wants to mend his broken relationship with Cael.
