Die Familie Rossi hatte eine Regel. Wer die nächste Donna werden wollte, musste sich beweisen. Innerhalb eines einzigen Jahres dreihundert Millionen Euro verdienen. Sauberes Geld. Ganz allein. Ohne jede Hilfe der Familie. Ich hatte zehn Jahre lang dafür gekämpft. Für Vincent. Ich hatte zehn Firmen aus dem Nichts aufgebaut. Und jedes einzelne Mal, kurz bevor ich die Ziellinie erreichte, lief etwas schief. Alles brach einfach ... in sich zusammen. Dieses Jahr hatte ich es endlich geschafft. Mit dem Prüfbericht in der Hand rannte ich in sein Arbeitszimmer. Mein Herz schlug mir bis zum Hals. Ich glaubte, ich hätte endlich gewonnen. Stattdessen erfuhr ich, dass mein ganzes Leben auf einer Lüge aufgebaut hatte. Er übergab mein gesamtes Imperium Ava Rossi. Der Bastardtochter meines Vaters. Nur weil sie ihm angeblich einmal das Leben gerettet hatte und er deshalb sie zur wahren Donna machen wollte. In diesem Moment gab ich auf. Ihn. Und auch den Traum meiner Familie, gemeinsam mit seiner aufzusteigen. Dann nahm ich das Telefon in die Hand und rief das Outfit in Chicago an. „Dein Heiratsantrag“, sagte ich. „Ich nehme ihn an.“

Kontraksi itu seakan merobekku menjadi dua. Penglihatanku pun mulai kabur. Suamiku, Rendi, adalah Sang Ketua, seorang pemimpin keluarga mafia yang menguasai Kota Celion, menggenggam tanganku. Mata gelapnya menyala dengan penuh cinta. "Sebentar lagi, Sayangku. Kau akan segera bertemu bayi kita." Keringat mengalir deras di wajahku. Aku masih ada kekuatan untuk tersenyum padanya. Lalu, seorang perawat masuk. Dia memegang sebuah jarum suntik. Kupikir itu untuk menghentikan rasa sakit. Namun, tangan Rendi terlepas. Dia mundur selangkah. Jarum itu menancap di lenganku. Aku mendengar suara Rendi yang dingin seperti baja. "Berikan dia suntikan dengan hati-hati. Dia harus bertahan sampai tengah malam. Tidak boleh semenit pun lebih cepat. Tunggu sampai Karin melahirkan terlebih dahulu." Saat itulah, aku baru tahu kalau dia berpikir aku menikahinya karena uang. Dia menunda persalinanku. Semua demi aturan Keluarga Ferano yang gila, bahwa putra pertama yang lahir adalah pewaris berikutnya. Rasa sakit menyiksaku. Aku mencoba meraihnya. Air mata mengalir di wajahku. Aku memohon padanya untuk berhenti. Dia hanya menggigit bibir dan suaranya sedingin es. "Kakakku sudah mati. Karin mengandung satu-satunya ahli waris. Kau harus melakukan apa yang diperintahkan. Kau dan anakmu tidak boleh mencuri hak warisnya." Obat itu masuk ke pembuluh darahku. Remasan hebat di perutku terasa seperti tangan tak terlihat, dan tiba-tiba saja … berhenti.

Willow Grant has spent nearly a decade in Manhattan, building a life of logic, skyscrapers, and safety. She traded the wild air of Redwood Bay for the steady pulse of the city and found a man who offers her a quiet, uncomplicated love. She’s no longer the girl who wept on a cold floor; she is older, watchful, and finally in control. But when a family engagement demands her return to the territory, she discovers that some ghosts don't stay buried—they grow teeth. Seven years ago, he let her run. Now, he’s done waiting. Roman Vale is no longer the boy she once idolized. He is the Alpha of the Vale Clan, a lethal tactician who rules the northern territories with a heart of flint and a gaze of stormy gray. He has spent years in the shadows, expanding his empire and purging anyone who dared touch what belonged to him. He has stayed silent. He has stayed celibate. But he has never let go. From the moment Willow steps back onto his soil, the hunt is on. Roman doesn't want a civil conversation or a polite reunion. He wants the woman who was promised to him in the moonlight. He wants to tear down the walls she built in the city and remind her that no matter whose hand she holds, her wolf only howls for one man. As a dangerous conspiracy threatens the Grant lineage, Willow is forced into Roman’s orbit for protection. But in the corridors of the Vale Compound, the greatest threat isn't the enemies at the gate—it’s the suffocating, magnetic heat of the man who calls her Rosebud while looking at her like prey. The rose has finally bloomed. And this time, the Alpha is playing for keeps.

Hari itu adalah hari ulang tahunku. Kupikir, Andre akan menemaniku ke pantai untuk menonton kembang api. Tapi, pacarku itu malah membawa wanita lain dan anak wanita itu. "Keisya repot bawa anak, tolong pengertian." "Dia nggak tahu jalan dan bawa barang banyak, jadi aku mau antar mereka ke hotel duluan." Dia mengatakannya dengan enteng, seolah sedang menjelaskan masalah sepele. Kelembutan itulah yang membuat kemarahanku tampak berlebihan dan tanpa alasan. Dia membantu mereka masuk ke dalam mobil dan memasangkan sabuk pengaman untuk anak itu. Lalu dia tersenyum dan berkata kepadaku, "Aku nggak lama pasti balik lagi, jangan mikir macam-macam." Aku berdiri di pinggir jalan, menyaksikan mereka pergi seakan-akan mereka satu keluarga sempurna. Malam tiba. Angin laut terasa sangat dingin hingga menusuk tulang. Aku masih menunggu, sampai aku melihat video di akun Keisya. Andre menggendong anak Keisya sambil menonton pertunjukan kembang api di pantai. Pertunjukan itu adalah kejutan yang aku rencanakan sendiri untuk ulang tahunku. Isi komentar di bawahnya senada. [Mereka pasangan yang serasi, keluarga kecil yang bahagia.] Seseorang bertanya padanya kenapa dia tidak menjemputku. Dia tersenyum dan berkata, "Viona pengertian. Dia nggak mungkin marah." Pada saat itu, kue ulang tahunku sudah meleleh seluruhnya. Ternyata, dia bukannya tidak punya hati. Dia hanya terlalu yakin bahwa aku akan terus menunggu selamanya. Tapi, hati yang terlalu lama diabaikan pasti akan menjadi dingin. Ombak menghantam pantai. Menghancurkan ilusi terakhirku. Kali ini, aku tidak akan menunggunya kembali.

My father cheated. I cut him out of my life. To get my forgiveness, my father put Lucas Moretti, the Don of New York, in my bed. I fell for Lucas, fast. He knew how to play gentle. Night after night, he’d hold me tight, fuck me like he owned me, and whisper how obsessed he was with me. Six months later, I was pregnant. I was the princess of New York's underworld. My father and Lucas gave me everything. They treated me like I was made of glass. But the day of the baby's blessing at the church? They were a no-show. My father said there was family business to handle. Then I got an anonymous link. A wedding. Live. In the video, my father, Lorenzo, was walking his mistress, Carla—the woman who killed my mother—down the aisle, a happy smile plastered on his face. And the other happy couple? My fiancé, and my father's bastard daughter, Sofia. I could hear Lucas’s voice clearly: "Well, Bella used to bully Sofia. I'm just helping her get the justice she deserves... As for Bella, it's time she was unburdened from a life she isn't built for." "I'll take over the Gallo family shares for her," he continued, "so she and our child can live without a care in the world." My father’s voice followed. "Bella’s too much like her mother—ambitious. That’s not a good thing for a woman." As my world shattered, a text from an unknown number lit up my screen: "Marry me, and the child you're carrying will be the sole heir of the Russo family."

Após renascer, fui eu quem mudou o nome no meu vínculo de sangue com o Príncipe Mortlock. Escrevi "Isabella" — a outra vampira que ele sempre amou, sempre protegeu. Quando Isabella quis o colar de rubi, aquele que marcava a companheira do príncipe — eu o dei a ela. O vestido de noiva que Mortlock havia preparado para mim? Também o dei para Isabella. Fiz tudo isso porque, na minha vida passada, consegui o que queria. Tornei-me a companheira de Mortlock, mas vivi cada momento à sombra de Isabella. No fim, durante uma batalha contra caçadores de vampiros, Mortlock correu primeiro até Isabella, que estava ferida. Fui eu quem ficou para trás e acabou com uma estaca de prata atravessada no coração. Então, desta vez, decidi deixá-los em paz. Ficar bem longe de Mortlock. Mas, desta vez, o príncipe frio e distante chorou e implorou para que eu me tornasse sua companheira novamente.

Kaelan noticed I hadn't filed a single medical or living expense request in the pack’s resource channel for a week. He must have thought I’d finally kicked my greedy human habits. At dinner, he tossed a black card at me. It cut a cold arc through the air, landing beside my plate. “Your father’s treatment for next month. The wolf gene serum, the lab fees—it’s all approved.” His voice was pure Alpha command. An order, not a suggestion. “Bringing you and your father here was a risk. I fought the Elders for you. You are my mate. Stop begging for pack funds like a common stray. It’s a bad look.” He didn’t know my fingers were ice-cold when I picked up the card. The papers to sever our mate bond were already signed. So was my will. The hoodie I wore when I left was a faded thing he’d tossed at me three years ago. No one would believe it. The fated mate of an Alpha who ran a corporate empire… had to send a photo of a $10 painkiller receipt to a Beta assistant for approval. All because he thought a fragile human like me was a leech who couldn’t be trusted with cash. But a week ago, when my father’s lupus caused his organs to fail, I needed $50,000. He needed a dose of pure gene repair serum, synthesized in the pack’s high-tech med-bay. I begged him on my knees. His childhood friend, Seraphina, just laughed. She froze my request, saying she was helping me break my bad habit of “cashing in on my mate status.” Kaelan never knew I endured that humiliation just so my father could stay alive in his top-tier medical lab. Now, my father was dead. The medicine was cut off, and his ashes were already in the ground. I didn’t need to be his obedient little pet anymore.

On my wedding anniversary, I go to Anthony Scroll's company in an attempt to surprise him. No one at the front desk stops me from entering. But what stops me in my tracks is the fact that a photo of me is printed on the welcome mat outside the CEO's office. There's also a sentence printed on the mat that says, "You'll be bestowed with wealth if you step on her face." My hands start trembling out of rage. As soon as I open the door to the office and try to bring up the topic in front of Anthony, Alexis Timmer, a shareholder, as well as one of Anthony's "boys", throws a stack of useless documents at my face instantly. The sharp edges of the papers leave papercuts on my cheek, sending white-hot pain flaring through my senses. Alexis has one leg crossed over the other as she chews on a piece of gum innocently. "Oh, hey Kimberly! Sorry about that. The papers came flying out of my hand for no reason. You see, the programmers are extremely stressed, so the mat is meant for them to vent their stress. "Anthony has agreed to the usage of your photo, by the way. After all, it makes things even livelier for the company. A housewife like you will never understand our niche humor." Anthony takes off his earphones before shooting me a berating glance. Then, he passes a bottle of water to Alexis. "Alex is just like one of the boys. Stop using your own rules to restrict her." As Alexis twists open the bottle cap, she tilts her chin in my direction smugly. "Also, Anthony hates it whenever you show up at the company with your stupid surprises, Kimberly. The food that you bring him always ends up getting eaten by us as a form of punishment."
