Winning Back the Wife

Face Slapping

I caught my fiancé, Nico Falcone, in bed with my own cousin, Bianca Rossi. Right before our wedding. When I confronted him, he just called the whole thing off and ran me out of New York. I didn’t see him again for five years. Then came the charity gala for the New York Families. There he was. Nico. He pulled me aside, saying he felt bad for the state I was in. He offered to make me his mistress. I told him to go to hell. He got ugly. The whole room was laughing. Whispering how an outcast like me had no business showing my face in New York. I clenched my fists, the sound of their mockery ringing in my ears. Just then, the entire ballroom went dead silent. Every head bowed in respect. Don Lucas, the most feared man in New York, was walking slowly toward us. He stopped right in front of me. With the whole room watching, he dropped to one knee. He took my hand—the one Nico had squeezed red—and kissed it. His voice was dangerously low. “Who hurt my future wife?”

Chapter 1
Five years. That’s how long it's been since my ex, Nico Falcone, broke our engagement and my family kicked me out. The next time I see him, he's married to my cousin, Bianca Rossi. He grabs my hand in secret, offering to keep me as his mistress. He has no idea I’m about to marry the most powerful Don of all: Lucas Moretti.Five years, and I’m back at the New York mafia’s annual charity gala.“Well, well. Look what the cat dragged in. The Rossi family’s disgraced little artist?”The mocking voice cut through the ballroom's chatter, sharp and clear.I stopped and slowly turned.The senator's daughter, Sophia, stood behind me, a glass of expensive red wine in her hand. Her little circle of friends fanned out behind her, all of them wearing the same hungry look. The look of people ready for a show.“Five years, Aurora Rossi.” Sophia’s voice was sickly sweet. “You… still have such unique taste.” She paused for effect. “Oh, wait. I forgot. You’re not a Rossi anymore, are you? Jilted. Disowne

Nico dropped my wrist like it was on fire.He immediately turned, pulling Bianca into his side. The move was so smooth it looked rehearsed.“Baby, there you are.” He kissed her temple. “I was just catching up with Aurora about her… travels.”Bianca’s smile widened.“Oh, that’s wonderful!” She pressed closer to Nico, a flash of triumph in her eyes as she looked at me. “Aurora, you know I’ve been so worried about you. We’re cousins, after all.”The other guests started to drift back toward us.“Isn’t that the Falcones? I hear you two are set to inherit the family business soon.” A woman dripping in pearls approached them. “Bianca, darling, your charity work is simply divine.”“Thank you,” Bianca said, dipping her head shyly. She played the part of the adoring wife perfectly.More people joined the circle of flatterers.“You’re a lucky man, Nico.”“That donation to the children’s hospital last month…”“You two are a perfect match.”I was the outsider at their little love fest.“And this i

Nico pulled Bianca tight against him, letting her bury her face in his chest.“Look at you, Aurora.” His gaze cut into me like a knife. “This is why I left you. You’ve always been this vicious, jealous, and out of control.”Bianca sobbed quietly in his arms, the picture of a wounded bird.“You come back after five years, and you’re still the same,” he seethed. “You think you’re still the Rossi family’s little princess? Wake up, Aurora. You’re not fit to shine Bianca’s shoes.”Murmurs of agreement rippled through the crowd.Then he did something that made everyone gasp.He grabbed Bianca’s face and kissed her. Hard. Right there in front of everyone.It wasn’t a polite, social kiss. It was possessive, raw, and meant to be a show.Bianca looked surprised for a second, then melted into it, wrapping her arms around his neck. They kissed like they wanted the whole world to see how in love they were.Applause and whistles broke out.“Now that’s love!”“So romantic!”I watched the performance,

“I won’t marry a traitor.”“Then Bianca will marry him,” the patriarch said calmly. “She’s a Rossi daughter, too.”“What?” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.“Perhaps Bianca is a better fit for the Falcone family,” my father said. “She’s more docile. Obedient.”“And,” the old Don added, his voice like ice, “Bianca is… whole. She can give the Falcone family a healthy heir.”I sat bolt upright in the bed, rage burning through me.“Are you kidding me? She slept with my fiancé!”“So what?” my father sneered. “At least she has discretion. She didn’t throw a tantrum and lose a child because of it.”“So this is my fault?”“It is what it is,” the patriarch said, standing up. “Nico has chosen Bianca. We will honor his choice.”I looked at Nico, waiting for him to say something. Anything.He just sat there, silent, refusing to meet my eyes.“Nico…” I whispered his name one last time.“Aurora,” he finally said, his voice flat and empty. “Maybe this is for the best.”In that moment, my world e

Footsteps.Slow. Deliberate. Heavy with power.The entire ballroom went silent.Even breathing stopped.Every head bowed. No one dared to look at the approaching figure.Not even Nico.The color drained from his face. His body trembled."Mr. Moretti." He bowed his head, his voice laced with fear.Bianca dropped into a panicked curtsy, her arrogance vanishing.Lucas Moretti stepped into view.Six-foot-two. A custom black suit fit his powerful frame perfectly.His face was carved from sharp angles and cold lines, like a Roman sculpture.But it was his eyes that held you.Black as night. Bottomless. They saw right through you.He scanned the room. His gaze landed on me."Mr. Moretti!" Bianca's voice was sudden and sharp. "This woman took your seat! She has no respect for you!"She pointed at me, her eyes glinting with malice."She was bad-mouthing you, saying the most ridiculous things..."Nico jumped in."Mr. Moretti, my deepest apologies." He sounded like he was begging. "Aurora... she'

Nico's POVI stared as Lucas gently caressed the mark on her skin.A bullet to the heart.The memory hit me. Five years ago. Her in an ivory wedding dress, walking toward me, her eyes full of light.Back then, she was all mine.And now..."Falcone." Lucas's voice cut through my thoughts.The Don stood up, his tall frame casting a long shadow."I recall we had an agreement." His voice was calm, like he was talking about the weather. "But that agreement didn't include you putting your hands on my woman.""Mr. Moretti, I...""I need your assurance," he cut me off. "This will not happen again."My throat went dry."Y-Yes, sir."Lucas gave a satisfied nod, then turned to Aurora."Let's sit, baby."He pulled out her chair, his movements gentle, like he was handling a treasure.I was moved to a table nearby, forced to watch them.Waiters brought out the food.Lucas picked up a silver knife and started cutting her steak.Perfect slices. He pushed the plate in front of her."Try this. You'll li

Aurora's POVThe party was over.Guests filed out, nodding respectfully as they passed our table."Mr. Moretti, Miss Rossi. Have a wonderful evening.""Congratulations on your engagement..."A chorus of fake pleasantries.Lucas stood and draped his suit jacket over my shoulders."Let's go, baby."We walked toward the parking garage. The sound of our shoes echoed on the marble floor."Aurora!"A rough voice shouted from behind.I stopped and turned.Nico was storming toward us, his face dark, his eyes desperate."Wait." He was out of breath. "I need to talk to you."Lucas's face went cold."Mr. Falcone, I believe we're done here.""No." Nico shook his head, his eyes locked on me. "Aurora. Five minutes."I looked at Lucas."It's okay," I said softly. "Let him talk."Lucas nodded but didn't move far. He leaned against the Rolls-Royce, his black eyes watching Nico's every move.Nico stepped in front of me, his eyes full of pain and regret."Aurora, I was wrong." His voice was raw. "I was w

Aurora's POVThe guests turned in horror, staring at the madman who had just stormed the holy cathedral.Nico staggered toward the altar, his eyes wild with desperation."Aurora!" he yelled. "Don't marry him! Come with me!"His suit was a mess, his tie crooked, the smell of liquor rolling off him in waves."Get him out of here!" the Mayor shot to his feet, his face thunderous. "Security!"But Nico was beyond reason.He reached the altar and tried to grab me."We can still have a chance!" he said, frantic. "I have the divorce papers! Bianca already signed them!""Nico!"A shrill female voice came from the entrance.Everyone turned again.Bianca burst in, a wedding dress trailing behind her, her makeup a ruin.She looked even crazier than Nico."You bastard!" She launched herself at Nico, clawing at his clothes. "You think I didn't know?""Bianca, don't make a scene!" Nico tried to push her away."A scene?" She let out a shrill laugh that scraped like nails on a chalkboard. "Five years!

Five years ago. Rain beat against the stained-glass windows of old St. Anthony's church.I was huddled on a back pew, a thin jacket my only warmth.Bank accounts frozen. Credit cards canceled. No place to live.Father Thomas took me in."Aurora," he said softly, "God will open another door for you."I didn't answer.I hadn't said more than two words in three days."The children love it when you teach them to draw," the priest continued. "Maybe this is your new path."I looked over at the kids in the corner.Maria, Miguel, little Johnny...They were scribbling on scrap paper with broken crayons, their eyes full of simple joy.At least someone needed me.A month later. Midnight.BANG! BANG! BANG!The frantic pounding on the door shattered the church's peace.I shot up from my cot."Aurora!" Father Thomas's voice was panicked. "Quick, help me!"I ran to the door.A tall man had collapsed on the steps, covered in blood.His black suit was torn, his face cut open.But even then, I could see

Three years later. Florence, Italy. I had made a small name for myself in European art restoration.One day, a man in dark sunglasses came to my studio."Mr. Moretti would like to commission you to restore a family heirloom."He showed me a badly damaged Renaissance-era painting."This is...?" I inspected the canvas."A 16th-century piece, passed down for generations," the man said. "Mr. Moretti's grandmother is dying. Her last wish is to see this painting whole again."My heart sped up.Moretti..."What is the client's name?""Lucas Moretti."Three months of work.I used every technique I knew, researched every text I could find.Finally, on the delivery day, the painting was glorious again.I brought the restored piece to a villa in Milan.Lucas was waiting for me at the door.He looked older, more mature after three years.But those deep, dark eyes were just as gentle."Aurora," he said softly."Lucas."We smiled at each other."She's upstairs," he said. "My grandmother."The old wo
