Report
My husband was Damian, the Don of the Manhattan Mafia. Everyone thought he worshipped me, but the second his childhood sweetheart, Sophia, came back, I became invisible. He ditched me for her over and over again. It all broke when I started miscarrying. Even as my blood stained his car seat, he didn't even flinch. He just shoved me out of the car. "Sophia has a severe phobia of blood. You’re going to terrify her!" I woke up in the hospital to a taunting text from her: “I said I was a little hungry, and Damian actually got in the kitchen to cook for me. He spoils me way too much.” The photo showed the most powerful man in the city personally making her a meal. I didn't cry. I just called my mentor. "Sir, I had thought it through, and I was accepting the invitation for that international medical research project. Get me out of here. The further, the better." Since he couldn't let Sophia go, I decided to let them be. In three days, I was leaving Damian’s world for good.

The Don Lost His Love Chapter 7
Damian didn't stop. If anything, my cold indifference only made him more obsessed.He’d wait at the end of the hall after a ten-hour symposium just to offer me a container of warm comfort food from back home. He used his remaining fortune to anonymously donate the most advanced precision instruments to my lab, scrubbing his name from the records just so he could catch a glimpse of me during the equipment inspection.I met every one of his paranoid advances with strictly professional distance. I didn't even waste a glance on him. To me, he was just a stranger trying to patch a hole in a sinking ship that had already hit the bottom of the Atlantic. The scars from that New York rainstorm had hardened into armor he couldn't pierce.Then, I met Cyril.Cyril was a prominent Italian Don, but he was nothing like Damian. Where Damian was all shadow and control, Cyril was elegance and grace. Most importantly, he had a profound respect for my work. We met during a cross-border medical relief proj
The Don Lost His Love Chapter 6
Damian didn't disappear after the cold reception at the summit.Instead, he lost it completely, rooting himself in the city where my research base was located like some stubborn, dying weed. He offloaded all his business in Manhattan. The Don who once held the power of life and death over the five boroughs was now reduced to a man standing guard outside the cold iron gates of a laboratory.He stopped wearing his bespoke suits. He’d wasted away until he was skeletal, the lethal edge in his brow long since replaced by the pathetic look of a beaten dog.As the head of the project, I saw him every time I entered or left the lab. Every morning, he was there under the streetlight, holding a breakfast bag he’d traveled across half the city to find—the exact kind I used to like."Elena, I have the blueberry pastries you like. Please, just have a bite?"His voice was a gravelly wreck. He blocked my path with bloodshot eyes, holding that paper bag out with trembling hands like he was offering a
The Don Lost His Love Chapter 5
Sophia didn't last a week in the cellar before she completely lost her mind.Without the fine dining and the expensive supplements, she spent her days huddled in a moldy corner, muttering to the walls. She looped through the same pathetic lies—one minute crying for Damian to hold her, the next screaming that I was standing over her, clutching a dead infant and reaching for her throat.Damian went to see her one last time.He stood behind the iron bars, looking at the woman he once prioritized over his own soul. There wasn't a spark of pity in his eyes—only a bottomless pit of loathing and exhaustion.When Sophia lunged forward to grab his hem, he recoiled as if stepping away from a pile of rotting trash.He ordered the cellar door welded shut, leaving only a tiny slot for scraps."Since you love acting so much, you can perform for the shadows for the rest of your life."Those were the last words he ever spoke to her, cold as a funeral eulogy.With Sophia dealt with, Damian became a lit
The Don Lost His Love Chapter 4
Once I boarded the plane, I pulled out my phone and popped the SIM card I’d used for eight years.With a sharp flick of my wrist, the chip snapped. The sound was tiny, but crisp.I tossed the pieces into the trash bag held out by the flight attendant.My mentor worked clean. By now, the name "Elena" in the New York systems was nothing but a string of dead code.Bank accounts closed, passport flagged as void—I was a drop of water vanishing into the ocean.Manhattan’s glitter and its filth were no longer my problem.At that same moment, St. Mary’s Hospital.Sophia was tugging at Damian’s sleeve, her voice a sugary whine as she complained about the smell of bleach in the room.For the first time, Damian didn't offer comfort. Instead, he frowned and pulled his hand away, a sudden, inexplicable wave of irritation washing over him.He thought back to how quiet I’d been lately. It made his skin crawl with unease.But he quickly told himself I was just being obedient, as always. Surely, I was
