Face Slapping

Before the day of my husband's succession as the Don, my stepsister personally tattooed the "Inverted Angel's Eye"—the mark of a traitor—onto my back. My husband didn't just turn a blind eye; when the family vendetta broke out, he withdrew all the elite guards to protect my "pregnant" stepsister, leaving me alone in a defenseless city to face the slaughter.  "Elena, you are strong enough to protect yourself. But Sophia is fragile, and she is carrying my firstborn. She needs the protection more than you." Facing a siege of heavy firepower, I survived by the skin of my teeth. He thought I would swallow the insult for the sake of the family's reputation. He didn't expect that I would kick open the doors of his coronation ceremony wearing mourning weeds, flanked by the FBI and the Commission, and personally strip him of his title. "Goodbye, Lorenzo. This time, I choose to be the Don."

Chapter 1

เอลิกาลืมตาตื่นขึ้นมาก็พบว่าตัวเองอยู่ในสภาพเปลือยเปล่าล่อนจ้อน ถูกมัดมือมัดขาด้วยเชือกล่ามสัตว์ ผูกติดกับเก้าอี้เหล็กสำหรับทรมานเหมือนในหนังผู้ใหญ่ (AV) ของญี่ปุ่นหรือฝรั่งไม่มีผิด

โดยเก้าอี้เหล็กตั้งอยู่กลางห้องอันมืดสลัว ท่ามกลางกลิ่นไวน์อ่อนจางในอากาศเย็นฉ่ำราวสิบเจ็ดองศา และควันเทียนบางเบาล่องลอยเอื่อยเฉื่อยเฉกเช่นดวงวิญญาณกำลังเต้นระบำ

บรรยากาศชวนขนลุกขนพองสยองขวัญ เหมือนอยู่ในหนังฆาตกรโรคจิต จนไม่กล้าจินตนาการว่าชีวิตวัยเบญจเพสของเธอกำลังจะเจอกับโชคชะตาแบบไหน

“อะ!!...อะไรกันเนี่ย!!! ฉันอยู่ที่ไหน???”

หญิงสาวตกใจกับสภาพตัวเองจนใจสั่นพร่าไปหมด ร่างกายตอบสนองอัตโนมัติด้วยการดีนดิ้นขัดขืนเพื่อให้หลุดพ้นจากพันธนาการแสนโหดร้ายที่รัดรึงร่างกายและวิญญาณเธอไว้อย่างไร้ปรานี

ทว่า... ยิ่งดิ้นก็ยิ่งเจ็บเนื้อเจ็บตัว ยิ่งทุรนทุราย เชือกมรณะก็ยิ่งมัดแน่น ราวกับเป็นเถาวัลย์ผีสิงในหนังสยองขวัญสั่นประสาทอย่างไรอย่างนั้น

“โอ๊ย!!! ฮือ นี่มันอะไรกัน ทำไมฉันอยู่ในสภาพนี้ ใครทำกับฉันแบบนี้ ฮือ ใครก็ได้ช่วยด้วย!!!”

เธอตะโกนขอความช่วยเหลืออย่างสิ้นหวัง กรีดร้องคอแทบแตกด้วยความหวาดกลัวและประหวั่นพรั่นพรึงอย่างที่ไม่เคยเกิดขึ้นมาก่อนในชีวิต ร้องภาวนาขอให้ทุกอย่างเป็นเพียงแค่ฝันร้ายเท่านั้น

“ช่วยด้วยยยย ใครก็ได้ ช่วยฉันที!!”

เธอมาอยู่ในนรกนี่ได้ยังไงเอลิกา ใครจับเธอแก้ผ้าแล้วมัดติดกับเก้าอี้ทรมานแบบนี้...คิดสิคิด...คิดให้ดีว่าก่อนหน้านี้ เธอทำอะไรอยู่ เธออยู่ที่ไหน และอยู่กับใคร?

“บอส!!!” เธอเบิกตาโพลง จำได้แล้วว่าคนที่เธออยู่ด้วยคนสุดท้ายคือใคร ใช่แล้ว...ไม่ใช่ฆาตกรโรคจิตที่ไหน แต่คือเจ้านายของเธอเอง “คุณพิศรุตม์!!!”

“เรียกฉันเหรอ!”

เสียงทุ้มนุ่มกร้าวแกร่งดังขึ้นจากมุมไหนสักแห่งในห้อง น้ำเสียงเยือบเย็นแต่ทรงพลัง หากแต่เจือปนไว้ด้วยความสาสมใจไร้ความเมตตาอย่างสัมผัสได้

“บอส!!” เธออุทานเรียกเขาด้วยน้ำเสียงสั่นพร่า ไม่อยากเชื่อเลยว่าเขาจะทำแบบนี้กับเธอได้ ผู้ชายแสนดีที่อยู่ในฝันหวานของเธอทุกค่ำคืน

“บอสหรือคะ ทำไม...”

Chapter 1
Before the day when Lorenzo officially ascends as the Don, as his lawful wife, I must undergo the baptism of family glory at this sacred moment.Sophia, my stepsister—the "Principessa" adopted by my father—insisted on personally tattooing the "Angel's Eye," the symbol of supreme family authority, onto my back.The buzzing of the tattoo gun stopped. I looked into the floor-to-ceiling mirror, and my blood instantly froze.The "Angel's Eye," which should have been looking down upon the masses, was inverted.In the Code of Omertà, an inverted totem has only one meaning—a police informant, a rat.Seeing the color drain from my face, Sophia peeled off her rubber gloves and blew the ink off the nozzle with a look of utter innocence."It's called deconstructionist art, Elena. Don't tell me you have zero taste?"I grabbed the whiskey bottle from the table and smashed it at her.The glass shattered against the wall, shards grazing Sophia's cheek.In the next second, Lorenzo's powerful hand clamp

Chapter 2
It was just past eleven at night when the special priority alert on my encrypted satellite phone pinged.Intelligence had intercepted a post just uploaded to the Dark Web.I opened it. Sophia was smiling innocently at the camera. The background was the highest-level safe house Lorenzo had arranged for her protection.The video had clearly been recorded just minutes ago."Did a little artistic touch-up on a certain high-and-mighty 'Signorina' today."She waved the tattoo gun at the camera, ink still dripping from the nozzle, her eyes full of provocation."Guess what I gave her? An inverted 'Angel's Eye'! In the Corleone family, that is the brand of a rat.""You guys didn't see it. She's pushing thirty, still acting like some untouchable heiress. I drove that ink deep into her dermis. She’ll have to carry that shame for the rest of her life."The encrypted comment section was a carnival for her little lackeys: "Long live the Principessa!" "Nice work!"Sophia grew more excited as she spok

Chapter 3
I tossed the antique revolver onto the ammo crate.For a traitor, a bullet was too merciful.I took a sharp Sicilian stiletto off the torture rack. The blade reflected a cold gleam in the dim light.That flash of cold metal caught my eye, and for a split second, I saw eighteen-year-old Lorenzo.Back then, he was just an Associate not yet recognized by the family, wearing an ill-fitting cheap suit, standing in the rainy street.As an outcast pushed aside by the family, he didn't even have a decent weapon.Once, trying to reclaim a smuggled shipment for the family, he got two ribs broken and collapsed in an alley like a stray dog.That was the first time I disobeyed my father's orders and used the family doctor to save him.I shoved a stack of cash and a Browning engraved with the family crest into his hand.But he stubbornly pushed the money back, his wolf-like eyes staring dead at me: "Miss Corleone, please leave me some dignity."Since then, I just "happened" to provide him with intel

Chapter 4
The air was thick with the stench of disinfectant .Pavel, the Corleone family doctor, peeled off his bloodied rubber gloves. His eyes darted around, refusing to meet mine.He wiped cold sweat from his forehead, turned to Lorenzo, and bowed deeply. His voice trembled but echoed clearly in the dead silence."Don, Sophia's wound... it looks alarming, but no internal organs were damaged."Lorenzo's tense shoulders had just begun to relax when Pavel dropped the bombshell that shattered my last shred of dignity."However, during the examination, we discovered that Sophia is two months pregnant.""That is the precious bloodline of the Corleone family. It is your child..."In that instant, I felt like all the air had been sucked out of the room.I looked at Lorenzo.The man I had loved for twelve years, the man who swore only I was worthy of bearing his heirs, now stood frozen.There was no rage or denial as I had expected.His eyes held shock at first, which was quickly replaced by a complex

Chapter 5
The whir of the helicopter rotors faded completely into the night sky.The vast Corleone estate was now as silent as a tomb.To ensure Sophia's absolute safety during the transport, Lorenzo hadn't just taken the "Shadow Guard"; he had even pulled every single Soldato from the estate.All he left me were a few elderly servants and a mansion so empty it was unnerving.Clutching the hastily bandaged gauze on my forehead, I sat in the old leather chair my father had left behind, staring at the pitch-black night outside. The instinct of prey being stalked sent a chill down my spine.News traveled too fast.The Don had left New York, taking his elite forces with him, leaving a wounded Mama to guard an empty fortress.For the rival families who had been lying in wait, this was an invitation to a feeding frenzy.*Boom!*A deafening blast shattered the bulletproof glass of the French windows. A heatwave carrying shards of glass rushed into the living room.It was the smell of C4.The estate's w

Chapter 6
The sunlight in Sicily was blindingly bright.Lorenzo stood in his bespoke black suit in front of the high-backed red velvet chair that symbolized supreme power.He must have been glancing at the entrance from time to time.He was waiting for me.After all, in our countless arguments before, I was always the one to bow my head first.He was certain that, for the sake of the family's face and our so-called "marital bond," I would swallow all my grievances and attend his coronation.However, seconds turned into minutes, and the heavy doors remained shut.The anxiety in Lorenzo's eyes grew intense. Subconsciously, he twisted the ruby pinky ring that represented the power of the Don."Stop looking, Lorenzo."Sophia, dressed in a white lace gown even more lavish than a Mama’s ceremonial dress, intimately linked her arm through his, practically pressing her entire body against him.She stroked her flat stomach and whispered in his ear like a snake hissing venom."Elena isn't coming. She was

"There's one more thing besides freezing the assets."My gaze locked onto Sophia's snowy white neck.Hanging there was a dazzling ruby necklace. It was blood-red—pigeon's blood rubies from the oldest mines in Sicily.Sophia subconsciously covered her neck and shrank back into Lorenzo's arms."That necklace is an heirloom from my mother—the previous *Mama* of the Corleone family."I stepped closer, the sharp click of my heels sounding like a death knell against the floor."It symbolizes the matriarch of the Corleone family. Only a legitimate *Mama* has the right to wear it.""Sophia, you're just a bastard adopted out of pity. Even if you climbed into Lorenzo's bed, you aren't worthy of wearing it."I raised my hand. Two burly knightages immediately stepped forward."Take it off her.""And that priceless Parisian couture gown."I swept a cold glance over her lace dress, my tone dripping with disdain, as if discussing trash."The books show Lorenzo bought it with embezzled family funds."

Chapter 8
Stripped of the halo of the Corleone Don, it took only three months for Lorenzo's world to crash from the clouds into the gutter.He was in the messiest slums of Brooklyn—a dark corner filled with cheap dope and violent crime.Without the Family's protection or assets, the once arrogant "Wolf of Sicily" was reduced to selling his life for a few hundred bucks as a low-level enforcer in underground fight clubs and dirty streets.Late at night, the rain was pouring down.Lorenzo clutched his abdomen, stumbling through the door of that cheap semi-basement rental.The air reeked of mold, expired pizza, and cheap perfume."You finally decided to come back?"Sophia sat on the clutter-filled sofa, wearing a knockoff Chanel dress bought from a street stall, applying bright red lipstick in the mirror.Seeing Lorenzo covered in blood and looking pathetic, her eyes held no pity, only undisguised disgust and loathing."Where's today's money? I need that new bag. Even if it's a fake, that bitch next

Chapter 9
Lorenzo’s voice sounded like a dying beast, screaming my name through the torrential rain.He refused to leave.He stubbornly believed that if he knelt in the rain long enough, just like he did years ago, my heart would soften. He thought I would come out holding an umbrella and bring him home, just like I did when I was eighteen.Unfortunately, the Elena who loved him died the night he abandoned her."Make him shut up."I set down my glass of red wine, draped a black cashmere coat over my shoulders, and walked out of the main building.Outside the iron gates, Lorenzo was gripping the bars tightly. Seeing my silhouette emerge through the curtain of rain, his dim eyes instantly lit up with a shocking intensity."Elena! I knew it... I knew you couldn't let me go!""Sophia tricked me! That bitch miscarried! She was using me the whole time! I have nothing left now. I only have you!"He reached out, trying to touch me through the bars, a pathetic, ingratiating smile on his face. He looked a

Chapter 10
The air in the abandoned safe house in Brooklyn reeked of mold.Lorenzo huddled in the corner of the sofa, clutching a gun that had no bullets. He hadn't slept in three days. The sirens outside sounded like the footsteps of the Reaper, getting closer and closer."Sophia? Are you packed yet? We have to leave, now!"Lorenzo hissed, keeping his voice low.However, the response wasn't Sophia's panicked sobbing, but a deafening crash."FBI! Freeze!"The door was blown off its hinges by a battering ram. Blinding tactical lights instantly swallowed the dim room.Lorenzo instinctively raised his gun, only to find countless infrared laser sights locked onto the center of his forehead.In despair, he raised his hands."Lorenzo Corleone, you are under arrest for first-degree murder, money laundering, and racketeering."An FBI agent in a bulletproof vest stepped forward, roughly slamming him against the wall. The cold handcuffs locked around his wrists with a sharp *click*."Who... who gave me up?
