Ini adalah malam tahun baru ketiga sejak suamiku bangkrut. Rumah kami begitu miskin sampai tidak tersisa beras sedikit pun. Dia bilang, dia ingin makan daging. Dengan suhu minus 20 derajat dan badai salju lebat, aku menahan dingin sambil mengendarai motor listrik tua untuk mengambil pesanan kerja lepas. Jalanan terlalu licin. Aku dan motorku terperosok ke selokan. Beberapa tulang rusukku patah dan di tengah salju yang menutupi langit, tubuhku perlahan kehilangan suhu. Menjelang ajal, tanganku masih mencengkeram erat kotak lauk daging goreng yang kubeli khusus untuk tambahan makanannya. Setelah jiwaku meninggalkan tubuh, aku melayang kembali ke rumah kontrakan kami yang selalu berangin, tetapi tak ada seorang pun di sana. Aku keluar dan melihat suamiku berdiri rapi dengan setelan jas di sebuah vila mewah yang hanya terpisah satu jalan. Di tangannya sedang menggoyangkan segelas anggur merah dengan santai. Sekelompok pengawal bersikap sangat hormat kepadanya. Aku melayang mendekat dan mendengar dia bergumam, "Aku benar-benar nggak kepengin lagi jalani hidup sengsara begini. Kalau wanita bodoh itu tahu aku pewaris orang terkaya, mungkin dia akan senang setengah mati." "Tapi, ke mana dia pergi? Kenapa belum pulang untuk masak? Benar-benar makin malas saja." Namun dia tidak tahu, aku tidak bisa pulang lagi.

I spent five years as Dominic Santoro’s wife in name only. Five years hidden behind closed doors, buried under his sheets, erased from his world. When he finally agreed to take me back to Chicago—to stand beside him, to be seen—I thought I had won. I bought a new dress. Soft. Elegant. Worthy of a Don’s woman. The night before we left, he looked at me through the mirror and said calmly, “Take the makeup off. Change into pants.” I asked why. He adjusted his cufflinks like I was nothing more than background noise. “Juliana Lancaster is back. Tonight is our engagement.” Russian Bratva. Lancaster blood. A marriage alliance. Seeing my silence, he laughed—careless, cruel. “What’s with that look? Didn’t we agree on this when we married? Brotherhood. Loyalty. No love.” Then he turned, eyes sharp and mocking. “Victoria Miller… you didn’t actually fall in love with me, did you?” I stood there, frozen. Because inside the inner pocket of his tailored suit— was my pregnancy report. And the Don of Chicago had no idea the woman he was about to sacrifice was carrying his heir.

Before my wedding to Sophie Bennett, the impoverished student I've been sponsoring for ten years posts a photo on social media. "Successfully moved into the new apartment. Soph prepared such a big, soft bed for me!" In the photo, Zachary Wells lies sprawled on the wedding bed I bought for Sophie and my new home, taking a smug selfie with his hand waving at the camera. He's even wearing my wedding ring on his ring finger. Zachary also comments on his own post, "Just thinking about how I'm the first man to lie on this bed fills me with overwhelming happiness!" I reply with a question mark under his comment. The next second, Sophie's call comes through. "I'm just letting Zach experience the warmth of home. Why are you being so passive-aggressive?" In the background, I hear Zachary softly trying to calm her down. "Soph, he's not worth getting angry over." Hearing that, Sophie laughs and banters with him, then abruptly hangs up on me. The two of us have been together for ten years, from ages 18 to 28, and we've finally made it to our wedding day. But now, I no longer intend to go through with it.
