STOLEN BY THE DON HE'D MADE A TERRIBLE MISTAKE
She pulled out her phone and took several photos from different angles, making sure the mark was clearly visible. Evidence. Ammunition. Proof of my violence that could be deployed if needed then she sat on the edge of the bed, allowing herself a small smile of satisfaction.She’d successfully turned Luca against me with minimal effort. Had positioned herself as the reasonable victim while painting me as emotionally unstable and dangerous. Had created a narrative where anything I said now would sound like desperate attempts to justify violence.It was almost too easy.My capacity for genuine emotion made me vulnerable. Made me predictable. Made me easy to manipulate because I responded authentically to provocation instead of calculating strategic response.Serena had deliberately pushed until I broke, then performed victimhood the moment someone walked in. Classic abuser tactic really provokes until the target reacts, then points to their reaction as proof of instability.And Luca had
STOLEN BY THE DON THE PERFECT VICTIM
“Good,” Matteo said. “You deserve that. You deserve to choose yourself.”I nodded, too tired to say more.After I left, the hospital room fell into heavy silence. Serena remained by the window, still touching her reddening cheek, her expression carefully neutral. Luca stood in the middle of the room, conflict evident on his face.Matteo moved to leave, but paused at the door. “You made a mistake, Luca.”“I held someone accountable for violence,” Luca said defensively. “That’s not a mistake.”“You took sides without hearing full context,” Matteo corrected. “You saw a handprint and assumed guilt without understanding what led to it. That’s exactly the kind of blind judgment you criticized others for making.”“Matteo…” Luca started.“I’m going to check on her,” Matteo interrupted. “Make sure she’s actually okay and not just performing strength while falling apart. You know, the thing you should be doing instead of defending someone you barely know over someone you claim to love.”He lef
STOLEN BY THE DON I CHOOSE MYSELF
"You're going to believe her over me? After everything we've been through, after months of you claiming to see me clearly, you're going to take her side?" "I'm taking the side of not hitting people," Luca said. "Regardless of what was said, regardless of provocation, violence isn't acceptable." "But kidnapping is?" I said bitterly. "Holding someone captive for months is fine, but one slap in response to systematic emotional abuse is where you draw the line?" Luca's face hardened. "That's not fair." "None of this is fair," I said, looking between Luca and Serena. "She orchestrated this perfectly. She pushed and pushed until I broke, then played victim the moment someone walked in. And you... you're so blinded by guilt and her angelic performance that you can't see what she's doing." "What she's doing?" Luca repeated. "She's standing there with a handprint on her face that you put there, Sienna. That's not performance, that's physical evidence of your violence." "Evidence without
STOLEN BY THE DON I THOUGHT YOU WERE BETTER
"Because hating you is better than being alone," Serena admitted. "Because at least when I'm attacking you, I feel something other than emptiness. Because you're the only person who's ever stayed despite knowing what I am and I'm selfish enough to need that even if needing it makes me weaker." "That's sick," I said. "That's honest," Serena corrected. "I'm telling you exactly what this relationship would be, me hating you for your capacity for goodness while simultaneously needing your presence to feel anything at all. Take it or leave it." Something in me snapped, some final thread of patience or hope or desperate need for family that had been holding me together. "You know what?" I said, my voice dangerously quiet. "I'm done. Done with your brutal honesty that's just cruelty dressed up as truth. Done with your damage being used as weapon against me. Done with accepting scraps of conditional affection and calling it sisterhood." "Finally," Serena said, and I couldn't tell if it w
STOLEN BY THE DON THE BREAKING POINT
“But that version of me wouldn’t have survived,” I said. “In my world, softness gets you destroyed. Caring makes you vulnerable. And vulnerable people don’t last.” I held her gaze. “So no. I’ll probably keep hurting you.” The honesty in that hurt more than the insults. “Then this is goodbye,” she said. And it felt like tearing something out of my chest. “It should be.” “But you don’t want it to be,” she said. A faint, broken smile touched my lips. “No. I don’t.” Silence stretched between us. “But I hope you stay anyway,” I whispered. “I hope you’re stubborn enough. Or broken enough. Or desperate enough to choose this even knowing what it is.” “That’s not fair.” “Nothing about us is.” I didn’t look away. “I will hurt you, Sienna. I will choose myself. I will lash out when I feel threatened. That’s not going to change. So the question is, can you live with that?” She stood there, halfway out the door, feeling like she was split in two. “I need time,” she said finally. “Time to
STOLEN BY THE DON WHEN I LOOK AT YOU
“I needed to understand the hierarchy,” Serena said, her voice cold enough to cut. “I’m the successful one. The strategic one. The twin who matters. You’re the mistake, the one they threw away because even at seven, they could tell you’d never be worth keeping.”Something inside my chest didn’t just hurt, it splintered. Not a clean break. A fracture. The kind that never really heals right. This wasn’t honesty. It wasn’t even cruelty in the heat of the moment. This was calculated. Precise. Designed to destroy.“The investigator’s report…” I said slowly, the pieces sliding into place in a way that made my stomach turn. “You didn’t show it to me to be honest. You showed it to set this up. You wanted proof, documentation, so you could twist the knife deeper.”Her lips curved, pleased. “Smart girl. Took you long enough. Yes, I showed you so you’d come back vulnerable. So you’d be perfectly positioned for maximum damage when I told you the truth that I chose to let you suffer because your s

"It's exactly what's happening right now," Serena interrupted. "You spent twenty years chasing the fantasy of me, the angel who saved you, the pure thing that proved goodness existed. And when you found me and discovered I'm not that angel, you simply transferred the fantasy to my twin. She's you

Matteo's expression darkened. "That's where it gets worse. Serena—Sara, she knew about Sienna. Has known for years." Luca's hands clenched on the desk. "Explain." "Three years ago, she hired a private investigator to locate any living relatives," Matteo said, pulling out another document. "Sta

"Then let her come," Luca decided. "But on our terms, in our timing. I want to see Serena face to face, want to watch her perform this heroic sister routine, want Sienna to see who her twin really is." "That's risky," Matteo warned. "If Serena manages to extract Sienna, if she gets law enforcem

Matteo found Luca in his office three days later, surrounded by organizational reports he was clearly not reading, his mind obviously elsewhere. Probably with Sienna, who was napping upstairs after another difficult night of fever dreams and shared warmth. "We need to talk," Matteo said, closin
