A Noiva Substituta Do Mafioso

The moment my best friend, Patrick York, rushed ahead of me into the convenience store and asked for a lottery ticket with that specific string of numbers, I knew he was in the same boat as me. We were reborn. In the past life, Patrick and I were shortlisted for an interview at a Fortune 500 company, but there was only one opening. The day before the interview, I had a sudden urge to buy a lottery ticket. However, because of that, I missed the interview and Patrick got hired. Surprisingly, I got the winning ticket and won 50 million dollars. After my graduation, I enjoyed an easy life by living off interest from the bank. Meanwhile, despite getting hired, Patrick was paid a low wage and suffered daily abuse from his colleagues. In the end, he took out his frustrations on me by pushing me off the rooftop, killing me on the spot. After my death, my girlfriend, Emily Hayward, committed perjury for his sake. She claimed that after a prolonged period of staying home with nothing to do, I was in a bad mental state and leaped off on my own. The two of them profited off my death and became trending influencers, making it big. When I opened my eyes once more, I realized I was back to the day I purchased the lottery ticket.

Kehidupan yang berkecukupan tidak selalu membuat seseorang bahagia. Terbukti dengan kehidupan dua pribadi, Keenan dan Lilian. Keenan yang memiliki trauma dengan wanita, dan Lilian yang memiliki sakit hati serta trauma dengan masa lalunya, membuat mereka tidak bisa menerima kehadiran cinta begitu saja. “Mari kita selesaikan masa lalu terlebih dahulu baru menjalani hubungan yang lebih serius,” ujar Keenan. “Memaafkan bukanlah hal yang mudah untuk dilakukan. Tetapi, demi cinta dan diriku sendiri, aku akan mengusahakannya,” jawab Lilian. Bagaimana cara Keenan dan Lilian melewati proses kehidupan untuk meraih kebahagiaan bersama?

"Lakukan dengan benar!" ujar dua penerus kelompok besar mafia yang menjalani hubungan palsu demi mencegah pecahnya perang antara dua kubu. Naniana Kradse selalu menganggap sandiwara yang ia jalani hanya demi menjaga daerahnya dari kehancuran pasca perang, Ascian Vade Bellion juga hanya menganggap hal konyol yang ia jalani semata-mata demi menjaga keselamatan ibunya. Tetapi ketika perasaan mereka ikut campur, semua menjadi lebih nyata untuk disebut sandiwara, dan semakin rumit untuk disebut hubungan atas pura-pura. Di saat keduanya sadar adanya perasaan yang tak seharusnya, di saat itu mereka harus memutuskan haruskah memperjuangkan hubungan asli yang terlarang atau mengakhiri semuanya dengan baik dan kembali berdiri di sisi masing-masing, sisi berbeda di mana mereka saling menatap tajam layaknya musuh yang tak dapat lagi disatukan.

Apakah kamu tahu? Menjadi apa yang orang inginkan memang membuatmu terlihat hebat tapi pernahkah kamu memikirkan dirimu sendiri? Apa kamu bahagia? Jika ingin membahagiakan orang lain, sebaiknya kamu harus bahagia terlebih dahulu, kamu harus tau itu.

Quedé embarazada de Alessio Moretti, el mejor amigo de mi hermano y el Don más joven y atractivo de Nueva York. Justo entonces regresó Bianca, su antigua amante… la misma que lo había dejado sin decir una sola palabra. Pensé que me dejaría por ella, pero él solo sonrió con esa calma arrogante. —Se fue sin dar explicaciones. No hay vuelta atrás. Mi hermano, Gianni Ricci, fue aún más frío: —Ella ya no es una Ricci. Mi única hermana eres tú. Les creí. Durante tres años, me dieron un cariño y una calidez que jamás había conocido. Pero todo se vino abajo cuando un video de mi padre adoptivo, borracho y golpeándome, se volvió viral. El mundo entero se burló de la “intocable princesa Ricci” … la misma que alguna vez fue tratada peor que una mendiga. Me rompí por dentro y corrí a buscar a las dos únicas personas en las que confiaba… pero me detuve en seco frente a la puerta de su despacho al escuchar la voz empalagosa de Bianca. —Gianni, Alessio… ¿filtrar ese video? ¿No fue demasiado cruel? Marcella está embarazada… La respuesta de mi hermano llegó al instante: —Justamente de eso se trataba. El embarazo debería ablandarla… pero ha estado paseándose como si fuera la dueña de todo, manteniéndote a ti al margen. Alessio soltó una risa suave: —No te preocupes por Marcella. No puede hacernos nada… y es demasiado blanda como para hacerle daño a nuestro hijo. Las lágrimas comenzaron a caer sin control y un dolor agudo me atravesó el pecho de golpe. "Tiene razón… este bebé es mi tesoro. Jamás le haría daño", pensé. Pero tú, Alessio… no voy a dejar que me controles. Me di la vuelta, sintiéndome entumecida, compré un vuelo y tomé una decisión. "Voy a desaparecer… me llevaré a mi bebé y saldré de su mundo para siempre", pensé.

“But I won’t stand a shy woman in bed,” patuloy ko. “Ayoko ng babaeng parang napipilitan lang makipag-sex sa akin. Gusto ko iyong pagka-Freya mo noong gabing buohin natin ‘yang anak ko na nasa sinapupunan mo ngayon.”  “Naka-drugs ako noon…” pabulong niyang sabi. “Hindi ako ang Freya na iyon. Kung ano man ang nangyari sa akin dahil sa droga ay hindi ko ginusto iyon.” I smirked as I cupped her left jaw with my right hand. I stared into her eyes. “That night, Freya...That night I decided to make you my woman. Make you my bitch…” I grinned. “Kaso nabuo man ang panganay ko. Siya ang nagdesisyon na pakasalan kita and that makes you... luckier.”  ****** ALGUIEN ESPOSITO is a mafia boss who doesn’t care to any woman in general. He was raised to be ruthless and focused to be the leader of their organization, EXCELLANTE. Para sa kaniya ay wala siyang pakialam sa kahit sinong babae. But one night, Alguien ended up in bed with FREYA - a poor woman, who was a payment for him because of the latter's boyfriend's debt. Intrigue. Conspiracy. Deception. When Alguien wanted to make his marriage with Freya work, Freya found her true identity and worth. While Alguien wanted to keep Freya as his wife, Freya found a reason to leave him and face her life. As Alguien needs to stay as the leader of Excellante in the underground society, Freya becomes a princess and a true blue-blood royalty. ****** This is a story that is close to a real mafia way of life. If you are a sucker for romance and simple plot, better not read this!!!

Na minha vida passada, coloquei em segredo uma Poção do Amor no copo do meu companheiro destinado e Alfa, Jason Green. Como o esperado, ele se apaixonou por mim. Nós realizamos a mais grandiosa cerimônia de vínculo de companheiros da história da nossa alcateia e viramos o casal que todo mundo invejava. O efeito da Poção do Amor durava sete anos. Ingênua, eu acreditei que isso bastaria para conquistar o coração verdadeiro dele. Mas a amiga de infância do Jason, Lilian Foster, trocou a própria língua com uma bruxa do mercado negro pelo antídoto. No instante em que a verdade veio à tona, o amor nos olhos de Jason se transformou num ódio que parecia atravessar os ossos. Ele me vendeu no mercado negro como cobaia viva para experimentos e me forçou a beber um Frasco de Feitiço Corrosivo. Por dentro, eu apodreci, e morri de pura dor. Mas eu regressei no tempo, segurando de novo aquele mesmo frasco da Poção do Amor. Dessa vez, eu não hesitei. Eu bebi tudo de uma vez só. "Dessa vez, não vou implorar por seu amor de novo, Jason," murmurei em pensamentos. "Eu pretendo me amar," eu disse baixinho para mim. Então… por que foi ele quem acabou se arrependendo?

Grávida de nove meses, fui feita refém no último andar do prédio por Afonso, um ex-funcionário que guardava rancor por ter sido substituído pelo meu marido no trabalho. Ele me esfaqueou dezenas de vezes. Meu marido, José Rocha, capitão da equipe de resgate, direcionou todos os recursos para salvar sua primeira namorada, Cecília, que, em depressão, ameaçava incendiar seu apartamento alugado. Eu não pedi que ele viesse me salvar. Na vida passada, por ter ligado para ele pedindo socorro, José largou Cecília para me resgatar. Eu e o bebê sobrevivemos, mas Cecília morreu no incêndio que ela própria provocou. José, na aparência, não me culpou. Reservou uma suíte VIP na maternidade para mim. Mas, justamente no dia do parto, ele me amarrou e, diante de mim e do nosso bebê, desferiu dezenas de facadas! – Naquele dia, você e o sequestrador me enganaram juntos, não foi? Seus ferimentos eram superficiais! Você nunca ia morrer! – Já que você gosta tanto de ser esfaqueada, eu faço esse favor pra você! Quando abri os olhos novamente, voltei ao dia em que fui sequestrada. Desta vez, decidi deixá-lo ir salvar a primeira namorada.
