During a turf war, I took a bullet for Daniel Wilson. When I woke up in the family hospital after three years in a coma, I discovered that Eva, the showgirl I'd saved from a black market auction, had usurped my place in the Wilson family. My husband Daniel, the family's Underboss, saw that I was awake, and his first words to me were: "The entire underworld recognizes Eva as the woman by my side now. Why did you have to wake up at a time like this?" "Alice and I both love her. She's the one who's been by our side these past three years. And you? You've just been a body in a hospital bed, absent from our lives." "We're through, Sarah." Watching the man I once loved so deeply speak such heartless words, I didn't put up a fight. I simply nodded and gave him what he wanted. But he had no idea the Wilson family was about to burn to the ground.

Pero isang gabi, sa hindi inaasahang pangyayari, nabuntis siya ng kaklase niya matapos ang isang gabing di niya maalala—isang gabing lasing siya at walang matandaan. Pinatira siya ng pamilya ng lalaking nakabuntis sa kanya. Sa una, mabait. Pero nang mailabas ang anak niya, nagsimula ang totoong hirap. Pinilit siyang magtrabaho muli dalawang buwan pa lang ang nakakalipas mula sa panganganak, para raw “makabawi.” Ang mas masakit, ang ama ng kanyang anak may iba na — at never siyang pinanindigan. Hanggang sa isang araw, tumanggap siya ng text na bumasag sa puso niya: *“Dinala na namin sa ospital ang anak mo. Mataas ang lagnat. Maghanda ka ng malaking pera. Hindi kami magbabayad pang hospital ng anak mo. Kulang pa ang binibigay mo kada linggo.”* Luhaan siyang tumakbo sa ospital kahit walang-wala. Pero huli na ang lahat. Hindi na niya inabutan ang anak niya nang buhay. Doon gumuho ang buong pagkatao niya. Ang nag-iisa niyang dahilan para mabuhay… nawala. At sa araw ding ‘yon, wala na rin siyang dahilan para lumaban — hanggang sa isang hindi inaasahang babae ang lumapit sa kanya. Si Lorainne Montemayor. At isang alok ang magbabago sa buhay niya **Lorenzo Montemayor**, 30 years old. Gwapo. Matalino. Mayaman. Kilala sa mundo ng negosyo. Pero sa likod ng tagumpay ay isang pusong sugatan — iniwan ng kanyang long-time childhood fiancée, na nag loko pa at hindi kayang panindigan ang kanilang anak. Ayaw ng babae sa responsibilidad, iniwan ang lahat kay Lorenzo. Dalawang magkaibang mundo. Dalawang magkaibang sugat. Pero iisang dahilan kung bakit sila natutong lumaban — **ang kanilang anak.**

Mi mejor amiga, Chloe, y yo nos casamos dentro de la mafia. Contrajimos matrimonio con dos hermanos. Yo me casé con el monstruo, Don Adriano. Ella se casó con su rebelde hermano menor, Lorenzo. Fue un matrimonio concertado. Yo no esperaba nada de él. Sabía que su corazón pertenecía a su amor de la infancia, Isabella. Entonces murió mi padre. Desde ese momento, mi hermano autista, Leo, se convirtió en mi mundo, por lo que le cedí todo el imperio naviero de mi familia a Adriano. Él me abrazó esa noche. Me besó las lágrimas de los ojos. Juró que nos protegería a ambos para siempre. Y yo le creí. Ese fue mi error. Hace tres días, una familia rival nos atacó. Dejaron a Leo desangrándose en mis brazos. Lo llevé rápidamente a nuestro hospital privado, pero estaba vacío. No había ni un solo médico de guardia. Llamé a Adriano, pidiendo ayuda a gritos. Y entonces descubrí que él había enviado a todos los médicos a la villa de Isabella. —Se acerca una tormenta e Isabella le tiene pánico a los truenos. El estrés podría desencadenarle una afección cardíaca. No puedo arriesgarme. Tu hermano solo tiene un rasguño. Cúralo tú. Mañana me ocuparé de eso. Colgó. Mientras Isabella dormía tranquila en sus brazos, yo perdí a mi hermano. Lloré toda la noche, abrazada al cuerpo frío de Leo. Cuando desperté, le dije a Chloe que quería el divorcio. Ella me abrazó, sollozando. Me dijo que también iba a dejar a Lorenzo. Los hermanos Moretti no supieron nada hasta que les entregaron los papeles del divorcio. Entonces se volvieron locos.
