On the day that was supposed to be my wedding—the bride wasn’t me. The ceremony I’d waited for five years for turned into a joke when Valentina, my sister, walked down the marble aisle in a white wedding dress. Her arm was linked with Luca’s — the man who was supposed to be waiting for me at the altar. “I’m sorry, Bianca,” she said softly. “But you are no longer the bride today.” Then she touched her stomach, eyes gleaming with triumph. “I’m pregnant with Don Romano’s child.” Her words detonated inside my skull, and the whole world went silent. As if afraid I wouldn’t believe her, she lifted something glossy up towards the light. A black-and-white ultrasound image. It read clearly: Gestational age — 12 weeks. My eyes burned, tears stinging as I turned to Luca, desperately searching for anything—a denial, an explanation, regret. Instead, he only sighed, weary and resigned. “Bianca, I’m sorry.” he said helplessly. “Valentina doesn’t have much time left. This wedding… it was her last wish.” “I’ll make it up to you,” he added. “We can have another wedding later.” My father, Moretti, stood behind him, wearing the same stern expression he’d worn my entire life. I have never seen him smile at me, not even once. “Bianca,” he said sharply, “Your sister is dying. Let her have this.” My brother nodded without saying a single word, as if that was enough to be a solid answer. All my life, they had chosen her—her tears, her whims, her needs—over mine. Today was no different. Something inside me quietly cracked. Fine. If no one in this family cares about me, I’ll leave.

Para masalba ang kompanya ng kanyang ama, napilitan si Bianca na pakasalan si Lucien Hoffman—isang ruthless at disabled na lalaki. Ngunit sa mismong araw ng kanilang kasal, nagulat ang lahat nang makita nilang nakakalakad ito nang maayos. At hindi lang iyon, napakaguwapo pa ni Lucien! Nang magtagpo ang kanilang landas, malamig na sinabi ni Lucien kay Bianca, "I will never love you or sleep with you. To me, you're nothing but a contracted wife." Ngunit dumating ang araw na hindi na niya magawang sundin ang nakasaad sa kontrata. Malumanay niyang sinabi, "I don't know, but I lose my mind when you're not here with me. Now, I’ll treat you as my wife. I will love you and… make love to you.” Umiling si Bianca. “It's a breach of contract! Do you know you'll have to pay for it?” Ngumiti si Lucien. “I can pay for that breach of contract even multiple times, as long as you'll be mine." Ngunit paano kung ang kontratang nagbuklod sa kanila ay siya ring maging dahilan para magkalayo sila?

"I, Beta Atlas Redding, reject you, Ruby Angelo, as my mate." Those words shattered Ruby’s heart, leaving her feeling worthless and broken.

Pada hari yang seharusnya menjadi hari pernikahanku, pengantinnya malah bukan aku. Upacara yang sudah kutunggu selama lima tahun berubah menjadi lelucon ketika Valentina, adik perempuanku, melangkah menyusuri lorong marmer dengan gaun pengantin putih. Lengannya melingkar di lengan Luca, pria yang seharusnya berdiri menungguku di altar. "Maafkan aku, Bianca," kata Valentina pelan. "Tapi hari ini kamu bukan lagi pengantinnya." Kemudian, dia menyentuh perutnya, matanya berkilat penuh kemenangan. "Aku hamil anak Luca." Kata-katanya meledak di dalam kepalaku dan seluruh duniaku seolah-olah mendadak sunyi. Seakan-akan takut aku tak akan memercayainya, dia mengangkat sesuatu yang mengilap ke arah cahaya. Gambar USG hitam putih. Tertulis jelas, usia kehamilan 12 minggu. Mataku terasa panas dan perih. Dengan mata berkaca-kaca, aku menoleh ke arah Luca, mati-matian mencari apa pun. Penyangkalan, penjelasan, ataupun penyesalan. Namun, dia hanya menghela napas, lelah dan pasrah. "Bianca, aku minta maaf," katanya tak berdaya. "Valentina nggak punya banyak waktu lagi. Pernikahan ini ... adalah permintaan terakhirnya." "Aku akan menebusnya," tambahnya. "Kita bisa mengadakan pernikahan lain nanti." Ayahku, Moretti, berdiri di belakangnya dengan ekspresi dingin yang sama seperti yang selalu dia tunjukkan sepanjang hidupku. Aku tak pernah melihatnya tersenyum kepadaku, bahkan sekali pun. "Bianca," katanya tajam. "Adikmu sekarat. Biarkan dia yang menikah hari ini." Kakak laki-lakiku mengangguk tanpa mengatakan sepatah kata pun, seolah-olah itu sudah cukup sebagai jawaban yang tegas. Sepanjang hidupku, mereka selalu memilih dia. Air matanya, keinginannya, kebutuhannya, semuanya lebih penting daripada aku. Hari ini pun tidak berbeda. Sesuatu di dalam diriku ada yang retak. Baiklah. Jika tak ada seorang pun di keluarga ini yang peduli padaku, aku akan pergi.
