Dumped the Don, Kept the Kids

Report
The day I went into labor with the twins, I bribed the family doctor to shoot me up with every heavy-duty suppressant he could get his hands on. Anything to stall the birth. Why? Because in my last life, Vincent—my husband, the Don—claimed to have a low sperm count. To guarantee an heir, he lined up ten mistresses and told the whole house: whoever popped out a son first, her kid would be the next Corleone Don. He promised if I delivered first, he'd ditch the others. Said our baby would inherit the throne. I bought every word. When I found out I was carrying twins, I couldn't stop shaking—I thought I'd won. But after I gave birth, he tossed me and the babies into the freezing wine cellar and locked the place down. "Lucy came from nothing. I just wanted to give her kid a name. You started rumors, pushed her into despair, and now she's dead—her and the baby. You're vile. Not fit to be the Don's wife. Think about what you've done. I'll open the door in three days." Then he had the butler seal it shut. What he didn't know? That night, the cellar caught fire. Me and my babies? Burned alive. When I opened my eyes again, I was back—right before labor. This time, I'm not staying. Soon as I deliver and get back on my feet, I'm taking my kids and disappearing for good.

Dumped the Don, Kept the Kids Chapter 9
I watched from a distance as the Corleones buried their dead. The funeral was all black suits and hollow rituals. Maria cried so hard she nearly collapsed.I didn't shed a tear. Just turned and walked away.In my last life, he'd locked me in that cellar and left me to burn. This time, when I opened my eyes, I was back on the night before labor.I went straight to Maria. Told her everything—what he did, how I died, the lies Lucy spun. At first she couldn't believe it, until I showed her proof Lucy was nothing but a fake. Fury lit her up, and she agreed to help me set the stage.I shot up suppressants to hold back the labor, dodging the death that once ate me alive. I taunted Vincent, pushed him until he threw me in the cellar. I wanted him to see me "die." To break.With Maria's hand in the script, we staged the whole scene—my "death in childbirth." That was my way out. My freedom.As for the "father" tossed from the balcony? Just a dummy. My real father had already been whisked o

Vincent staggered into the estate.The place was dead—shadows thick, air heavy. He dragged himself down into the cellar. The stench of blood and rot smacked him in the face.Where Avila had once been, nothing. Just black stains burned into stone.He crumpled, clawing at the floor like he could pull her back from it."Avila... Avila, where are you... come out... I was wrong... I was so damn wrong..." His screams ripped through the emptiness, wild and broken.Silence.Then a voice cut through like ice."Stop searching. Avila's gone."Vincent jerked toward the stairs. Maria stood there, eyes like blades."I dug into it. Lucy Benini—she's a fraud."His eyes blew wide, throat dry. "Wh-What did you say?"Maria descended slowly, her disappointment colder than the cellar air. "Her old man never saved you. Every sob story she fed you was fake. She was just some escort clawing her way up."She caught wind of the ambush, learned about Avila, forged papers, bribed scum, and conned you

"What?"Vincent's face turned to stone, his chest locking up like he'd been shot. His grip crushed the plane's armrest, the only thing keeping him upright."Now," he hissed, "bring me the doctor who delivered Avila's kids. I want his damn mouth moving in front of me."They dragged the man in quick.The second he saw Vincent, his skin went ghost-white. He shook all over. "I... I swear, I don't know. It was Mrs. Corleone. She begged for the suppressants, said she couldn't go into labor yet."I tried stopping her, but she swore if she held out past her due date, her twins had a shot at living..."Vincent's face was gray, his knuckles popping as his fists locked tight."Impossible..." His eyes darted, head shaking like he could outrun the truth. "Did Avila pay you off? Force you to spin this story? Lucy swore the babies were born already—that they were in the nursery!""Lucy?" The doctor blinked, lost. "I don't know any Lucy. I was hired by Madam Maria."Boom.The words hit like

The hospital director faltered, voice low, shaky. "Please hold, Don. I'll check for you."As the line went silent, Vincent's mind wouldn't stop racing.In his last life, he'd woken from an explosion meant for him. His mother, eyes swollen red, told him the girl's father had shoved him out of the way, taken the blast, and slipped into a coma. From then on, that girl was family. His to protect.He remembered her stubborn smile, her tear-rimmed eyes. That's when his ice-cold heart cracked.At first, it was duty.She hated the mafia mess, so he taught her how to survive it.The first time bullets rained down, he threw himself over her, whispering not to be scared.As she grew, she glowed in a way his dark world didn't deserve. He started to panic—what if another man saw it? What if she walked away?That's when he knew. He didn't just want to guard her.He wanted the grandest wedding, wanted her chained to his side for life.Wanted her to be his, only his.On their wedding day, h
