"You are my wife after all aren't you?" He teased, his teeth gently nibbling on my skin. I felt a strange heat brewing up inside me and I fought to control it. "Dante let go of me!" I seethed.

Na véspera do meu casamento, sofri um grave acidente de carro e entrei em coma. Enquanto eu lutava pela vida, meu noivo não hesitou: anulou o casamento e se casou com a amiga de infância dele, Letícia. Minha mãe, inconformada, tentou buscar justiça, mas morreu tragicamente no caminho. No pior momento da minha vida, meu amigo de infância, Alexandre, ajoelhou-se na porta do hospital com um dote de um milhão e cuidou do funeral da minha mãe. Fui levada para a cirurgia, sobrevivi… mas fiquei com sequelas permanentes. E ainda assim, Alexandre me prometeu uma vida inteira ao lado dele. Comovida, aceitei me casar. Cinco anos depois, ouço sem querer uma conversa entre ele e a secretária: — Sr. Alexandre, o senhor não teme que a Sra. Selene descubra que foi o senhor quem mandou atropelá-la, só pra que Letícia pudesse se casar com o amor da vida dela? — Por Letícia, eu faria tudo. Já dei minha vida inteira pra Selene Duarte. Não chega? Tapei a boca, segurando o choro. Foi naquele instante que entendi que meu casamento sempre foi uma mentira. Se era só uma substituição, então que fique com o lugar que sempre foi dela. Eu vou embora.

Depois de renascer, decidi que não iria mais me apegar obsessivamente a Wagner Rocha. No aniversário dele, ele colocou uma placa dizendo: [Cachorros e Juliana Campos não entram]. Dei meia-volta imediatamente e fui para São Cristóvão, ficando bem longe dele. Ele disse que sentia enjoo ao sentir meu cheiro em casa, então obedeci e me mudei sem questionar. Disse também que, após a formatura, não queria nem respirar o mesmo ar que eu na cidade, então parti rapidamente e nunca mais voltei. Por fim, afirmou que a minha presença poderia fazer Clarinda Prado entender as coisas de forma errada. Eu apenas assenti, e logo comecei a sair com outra pessoa. Fui repetidamente fazendo escolhas opostas às que fiz na minha vida passada. Tudo porque, na vida anterior, depois de finalmente me casar com Wagner, Clarinda se jogou de um penhasco e tirou a própria vida. Ele me chamou de assassina, me torturou, me maltratou e, no fim, me deixou morrer no fundo do mar. Desta vez, só quero viver bem. Depois, quando segurei a mão do meu novo namorado, Wagner ficou parado no meio do caminho, os olhos injetados de sangue. — Juliana Campos, se você vier comigo agora, eu perdoo a brincadeira que você fez.

During my wedding, hundreds of photos of me being sullied flutter down from the top of the church, landing before the guests below. My fiancé instantly calls off our engagement and turns to kiss my sister. Devastation washes over me. Just then, my childhood friend Derek Church, the Capo of the Church family, the East Coast's most powerful mafia family, pulls me into his arms. He kicks the church's door open and presses a check worth a million dollars into my father's hands. He pulls me to the priest and has him announce that we are husband and wife. I'm so touched that I agree to marry him. From then on, I become the Capo's wife. Two years later, Derek and I finally conceive through IVF. I want to share the exciting news with him when I overhear his conversation with his subordinate. "Lilyanne is afraid of pain and becoming ugly, so we can use Nicole to give birth to her child. Once she produces an heir for the Morse family, her position will be solidified. Then, the Morse family will become the Church family's MadeMan." "As expected of you, boss. You knew the Morse family is full of politicians who would never accept a sullied woman into the family. The only way for Lilyanne to marry into the family was by having Nicole sullied." My blood runs cold when I hear this, and the pregnancy report in my hand feels unbelievably heavy. The man I thought was my salvation was actually the devil who pulled me into the abyss. I dry my tears and call the Capo of the West Coast's mafia family, Derek's nemesis. "I have a way to help you become the mafia Capo dei capi. Do you want to work with me?"
