I Took The Bullet He Lost His Mind
I was just a student who couldn't afford tuition. For five years, I was also the secret lover of Mafia Don Dante Costello.
Publicly, I was his personal art restorer.
In private, he spent his nights making me his, holding me close and kissing me breathless.
Then his family arranged his engagement.
To Isabella Rossi. A princess from a rival family.
At their engagement party, Isabella stabbed the back of my hand with a shard of broken glass.
He made me apologize. To her. For making a scene.
Fighting back tears, I bowed my head to Isabella.
When Isabella lost a bet and had to play Russian Roulette—one bullet, six chambers—he made me take her place.
My hand shook as I raised the gun to my head.
"You saved my life once," I told him. "Now you can have it back."
The moment I vanished from his world, the ruthless Mafia Don who had everything under control...completely lost his mind.
