In my last life, my brother Leo—the heir to the Moretti crime family—stripped our estate bare of every last soldier, all for a Vegas jaunt. All because his new flame, Scarlett, had a jones for the high-roller tables. The Volkovs—our rivals, the very ones Leo had just pissed off—saw their opening and stormed our gates. My mother, Sofia, took a bullet meant for me. Died protecting me. I blew up Leo’s phone, my pleas turning to screams. He didn't answer. He waltzed back in after the shooting stopped, bringing our men home, but far too late for it to matter. Then, the news from Vegas. Scarlett was gone. A suicide note left behind. In it, she painted me as the monster. The one who’d leaked our weaknesses to the Volkovs. The one who'd orchestrated a fake kidnapping and torture plot, all to drive her to despair and lure Leo home. A perfect, tragic lie. Leo read the letter calmly. Then he burned the letter and told me, "Forget it. It's handled." Father tore into Leo for abandoning his post, for leaving his family to die. And me? I was named the new Consigliere. But after the celebration, Leo cornered me in the wine cellar. His face was a mask of cold fury as he pressed the barrel of his gun to my forehead. "This is for family traitors," he hissed, his voice pure venom. "The throne is my birthright, not some backstabbing bitch's prize!" When I opened my eyes again, I was back. Right in the middle of the fire and the blood. This time, I shoved my mother behind me, dragging her toward the panic room. And the bastards who were too blind to believe me? They’ll regret it.

"Cripple her." The words left my lips, devoid of heat, devoid of pity. They were a simple, cold fact. "The hand she used to sign my mother's death warrant. The hand she used to call our enemies. Break them. Both."Scarlett's face bleached of all color. "No! Isabella, please! We can make a deal—"POP.The sound was small, almost surgical. Marco's shot was precise. It didn't sever her hand, it shattered the bones within it.Her scream was a raw, animal thing that clawed at the walls.Leo knelt on the floor, trembling uncontrollably. "Isabella... please... mercy..."I turned my back on him, a gesture of final dismissal. "Take him," I said to Marco. "Strip him of everything but his name. And dump him on the street. Death is a mercy he hasn't earned. Let him live with what he is."Three days later, the first snow of winter began to fall on the iron gates of the Moretti estate.I sat behind the massive mahogany desk in my father's study, watching the feeds from the security cameras.Leo

"Dante? It's Scarlett."Her voice was a low murmur, but the bugs I'd had planted days ago picked up every word."I have something for you. Intel... on the Morettis... No, it's good. I know what Isabella's next move is..."Leo was still curled in his corner, lost in his own private hell, oblivious."The new route she's setting up at the docks... and the names of the capos she's targeting... My price? A million should cover it."I almost laughed. The bitch had ambition.Suddenly, Leo's head snapped up. "Who are you talking to?"Scarlett ended the call abruptly. "No one. Just an old friend—""Let me see the phone," Leo snarled, getting to his feet and stalking toward her."Leo, don't be crazy," she said, backing away. "It was nothing—"He snatched the phone from her grasp and his face went pale as he saw the call log. "Dante Falcone? You're talking to that motherfucker?""I can explain—""Explain?" Leo's eyes were burning with a new, terrible fire. "You're selling me out?""Selling you o

Three days later, the capos were summoned to Father's study.Twelve of the family's core men sat around the long mahogany table—captains from every borough, our chief earner, and the old guard who had advised Father for decades.Father sat at the head of the table, a king on his throne. I sat at his right hand—in Leo’s empty chair."Gentlemen," Father's voice boomed, a low rumble of thunder in the quiet room. "As of today, my daughter Isabella assumes all of Leo's former responsibilities. She is now this family's strategist. Her word is mine."A few of the old-timers traded nervous glances, but none dared to speak a word against it.I rose, commanding the room not with volume, but with stillness. I sketched a map on the whiteboard. "The Volkovs didn't send a message. They drew first blood. They want our ports, our shipping lanes—our lifeblood.""What's the play, Miss Moretti?" asked Marco, the capo who ran the East Side."The answer is simple." My voice was quiet, but it carried to e

Just as Leo’s face contorted with rage, the door swung open. Father's second-in-command stood there, his face grim."Don Moretti is back. He's with the Madam. He wants to see you both. Now."I was wheeled into my mother's private room. Sofia lay on the bed, her face ashen, an IV drip taped to her arm.Father sat by her bed, a statue carved from granite. His eyes, cold and hard as chips of flint, landed on me. His voice was the scrape of stone on stone. "You were supposed to be watching her."Leo immediately pointed a trembling finger at me."This was all Isabella! She's jealous of Scarlett, so she staged the whole attack to get me out of the picture!""Enough!"My mother's voice, though weak, cut through the room with surprising force. "For some girl... some nobody... you threw your own blood to the wolves." Her voice was thin, but each word was a steel shard. "Leo... there is no bottom to my disappointment in you."Even through a fog of pain, she had heard one of the hitters use h

The next morning, I woke to the sound of shouting.I opened my eyes to find Leo looming over my hospital bed."You paid a crew to shoot up our own house?" His finger jabbed at my face. "Just to drag me back from a night out? Have you lost your fucking mind?""The whole underworld is talking about th

The old butler, Antonio, who’d bounced me on his knee as a child, shifted uncomfortably. "Signore Falcone," he murmured, "forgive me, but the signorina... she would never stage such a thing. It is not in her."Dante hesitated, a flicker of uncertainty crossing his features. I seized the opening. I

Icy snow hit my face as I crawled out of the tunnel's exit. The entire Moretti estate was a sea of fire. Explosions and gunfire ripped through the night.I was covered in my mother's blood, stumbling the mile toward the Falcone estate. A shrapnel wound in my arm burned, but I couldn't stop. I co

He’s back, too. Leo remembers.But why would he think this was a lie? Last time, he saw the bodies. He saw what the Volkovs did. Why is he so detached? All because of Scarlett's one perfect, tragic lie? "Isabella did it."The line went dead.My mother stared at the phone, then at me, her face pal
