Caius pushed through the crowd and walked toward the steps.All the reporters' cameras swiveled to him."Don Falcieri! How do you respond to these allegations?""Are you really abandoning your own child?""Is the Falcieri family facing a succession crisis?"Caius ignored all of them.He walked straight up to Livia and looked down at her."Enough."His voice wasn't loud, but it silenced the entire crowd."Are you done with this performance?"Livia clutched the baby tighter, fear flashing in her eyes."Caius, I'm just trying to get our son what he deserves…""What he deserves?" Caius sneered. "A child you sired with Silas Romano. Tell me, what claim does his bastard have on my name?"The crowd erupted in a wave of gasps and murmurs.Reporters frantically snapped photos.The Madre's face went pale."Caius! What are you saying?""I'm telling the truth, Madre," Caius turned to her. "This woman fooled us all.""The baby's father is Silas Romano, our former CFO.""I have the DNA report. I hav

Caius's hand moved slowly to the gun at his waist.The metal was cold and unforgiving."Caius!" The Madre cried out in terror. "What are you doing?""What I should have done a long time ago."His voice was terrifyingly calm.Livia saw the movement, and her face went chalk-white."You wouldn't dare! I have evidence on the entire Falcieri family!""You think I care about evidence?" Caius laughed, a dead, hollow sound. "Alessia is gone. There's nothing left to lose."Just then, Tony burst into the room."Don! A convoy of FBI vehicles is approaching the estate!"Caius's hand froze.He looked at Livia's triumphant smirk and slowly withdrew his hand."You've won," he said. "But it won't last.""Take her away," he ordered the guards. "Give her some money and get her the hell out of New York.""And make sure I never see her again."Livia, clutching the child, was escorted out of the estate.Before she left, she looked back at Caius."You'll regret this.""I'm already living with regret," Caius

Meanwhile, I had already bailed out moments before the plane went down, landing safely in a whole new world.Night was falling over Antwerp's diamond district.I sat in my new studio, holding a flawless blue diamond."Lady Ares," my assistant, Henri, came in. "Your first piece is complete."He set down an exquisite jewelry box.Inside lay a platinum necklace with a pendant in the shape of a phoenix with its wings spread wide.It was crafted from the very rubies I had taken from the Falcieri estate."Excellent," I said, stroking the necklace. "Reborn from the ashes.""Also," Henri handed me a check, "a collector in London is very interested in your designs. This is the deposit."One million euros.My new identity, my new career—they were thriving. I fused the ancient techniques of my grandmother with modern precision, creating pieces the world had never seen.In my hands, every diamond was given new life; every piece told a story of freedom regained.Henri hesitated for a moment."Ma'am

Caius shot out of his chair, the sound he made less a word than a roar. "What the hell did you say?"He lunged at Tony, grabbing him by the collar."You're lying!"The bodyguard trembled. "We just got the call from ATC. Alessia's plane went down over the mountains. Hit severe turbulence... they said the fuselage just disintegrated. Search and rescue is heading out, but the crash site is in rugged terrain. Sir... the plane fell from three thousand feet. There's almost no chance of survival."Caius's grip went slack, and he collapsed back into his chair.The world spun, his vision tunneling to black. "No… Alessia!"It was his fault.He had let her go alone.On her birthday.He scrambled to his feet and bolted for the door."Caius!" The Madre rushed in, Livia trailing behind her. "You can't leave! This is obviously a plot by a rival family!""Don't you dare go! This is her own damn fault. Running off alone. What do you expect from a soldier's daughter? All steel, no sense. A woman running

Livia slowly took Caius's hand and pressed it gently against her swollen abdomen."Feel that.""Our little one just gave me a kick. I wonder if he's unhappy about something."Caius's eyes widened, his whole body tensing with excitement. "He's moving! My son, he's responding to me!""Our future Don has a strong kick. Kept me up all night," Livia purred, melting against him."The doctor said the baby needs his father's company, even in the womb. It helps them bond.""Caius, you have to spend more time with him.""But today I was…" Caius trailed off, glancing at me.Livia suddenly bent over, her brow furrowed. "Caius, I'm a little dizzy."She leaned against his chest, her breathing shallow. "I think I've been on my feet too much today. I feel so weak. The doctor said I need to rest more in the later stages, that too much fetal activity can be a strain."Caius was instantly on high alert, steadying her. "I'll take you back to your room.""It's alright," Livia said with a weak smile. "I can

The next morning, before the sun had fully bathed the estate in light, I heard a sharp knock on my door."The Madre requests your presence in the living room. Immediately," a guard said, his tone leaving no room for refusal.I had just stepped out of the shower, my hair still dripping.But the matriarch of the Falcieri family doesn't wait for anyone.I dressed quickly and descended the spiral staircase.In the living room, Caius was feeding imported cherries to Livia, one by one. She was half-reclined on the leather sofa, her pregnant belly prominent.As if she were already the Donna of this house.Caius's hand froze mid-air when he saw me enter."Alessia, you look pale," he said, rising and walking toward me, a hint of concern in his eyes. "Didn't you sleep well last night?"The Madre scoffed. "Why wouldn't she look rested? She bears none of the weight. Unlike our Livia, who barely slept, worrying over the little Don in her womb."Her gaze was as sharp as a knife. "Alessia, after you
