Did James Charles Die

Vor drei Jahren setzte ich Vincent Marcelli, den Mafia-Erben, unter Drogen. Nach jener wilden Nacht tötete er mich nicht. Stattdessen vögelte er mich, bis meine Beine nachgaben, griff meine Taille und flüsterte immer wieder dasselbe Wort: „Principessa“. Gerade als ich ihm einen Antrag machen wollte, kehrte seine erste Liebe, Isabella, zurück. Um sie bei Laune zu halten, ließ Vincent mich von einem Auto anfahren, warf die Erbstücke meiner Mutter den Streunern zum Fraß vor und steckte mich ins Gefängnis... Doch als ich schließlich gebrochen war und nach Bostenau flog, um einen anderen zu heiraten, durchkämmte Vincent ganz Neu-Arcadia, um mich zu finden.

Nach der Wiedergeburt beschloss ich, mich nicht mehr zwanghaft an meinen Jugendfreund Lukas Schmidt zu hängen. Zu seiner Geburtsparty stellte er ein Schild mit der Aufschrift: „Hunde und Mia Fischer dürfen nicht rein.“ Daher flog ich einfach nach Hawaii, um Abstand zu gewinnen. Als er behauptete, mein Geruch im Haus wäre ekelhaft, zog ich folgsam aus. Dann sagte er, nach dem Abschluss wolle er nicht mal dieselbe Stadtluft wie ich atmen. Also machte ich mich zügig davon und kehrte nie zurück. Schließlich sagte er, meine bloße Anwesenheit könnte seine wahre Liebe misstrauisch machen. Ich nickte nur und gab kurz darauf meine neue Beziehung mit einem Partner bekannt. Immer wieder traf ich jetzt die entgegengesetzten Entscheidungen zu denen aus meinem früheren Leben. Denn in meinem früheren Leben, nachdem ich endlich Lukas geheiratet hatte, sprang seine wahre Liebe von einer Klippe in den Tod. Er nannte mich eine Mörderin, folterte und quälte mich, bis ich schließlich in den Fluten der See endete. Diesmal wollte ich nur noch in Frieden leben. Später ging ich Hand in Hand mit meinem neuen Freund. Doch plötzlich blockierte Lukas unseren Weg, mit blutunterlaufenen Augen. „Mia, wenn du jetzt mitkommst, vergebe ich dir deine dummen Späße.“

Mein Mafia-Ehemann Alessio schlief mit seiner Stiefschwester Sophia. Im Auto, im Arbeitszimmer, im Badezimmer, sogar auf dem Esstisch – überall hinterließen sie Spuren ihrer Affäre. „Sophia, keine Sorge. Sobald ich meine Stellung in der Familie gefestigt habe, werde ich dir alles geben.“ „Blair… sie ist nur ein Werkzeug, um meine Position zu sichern.“ In unseren acht Ehejahren hatte er die süßesten Worte der Welt in mein Ohr geflüstert. Jetzt war seine Hingabe nichts mehr wert. Ich weinte nicht und machte keine Szene. Stattdessen traf ich eine Abmachung auf dem Schwarzmarkt. In zwei Wochen würde Blair Greco für immer aus dieser Welt verschwinden.

Einen Monat vor unserer Hochzeit verkündete mein Verlobter, dass er mit seiner ersten großen Liebe ein Kind zeugen wolle. Ich war dagegen, doch er brachte es Tag für Tag zur Sprache. Zwei Wochen vor der Hochzeit erhielt ich einen Schwangerschaftstest. Erst da erfuhr ich, dass seine erste Liebe bereits seit fast einem Monat schwanger war. Er hatte nie vorgehabt, meine Zustimmung einzuholen. In diesem Moment lösten sich unsere jahrelangen Gefühle in Luft auf. Also sagte ich die Hochzeit ab, vernichtete alle Erinnerungen an ihre gemeinsame Zeit und begab mich am geplanten Hochzeitstag in ein abgeschottetes Forschungslabor. Von da an hatte ich nichts mehr mit ihm zu tun!
