Larissa Moretti viveu um namoro de cinco anos. Intenso o bastante para virar notícia em Aurimare. No dia de assinar os papéis do casamento, ele simplesmente... não apareceu. Ali, a paciência dela morreu. Larissa terminou. O noivo virou ex. E ela jurou: não voltaria atrás. Nunca. Só que a engrenagem do destino não parou. Um telefonema mudou tudo. Por puro orgulho, Larissa se casou com Arthur Vasconcelos, o homem frio com quem mal falava, e o irmão mais velho do seu ex. Arthur era o homem mais cobiçado de Aurimare. Brilhante, intocável. Foi ele quem levantou um império financeiro que atravessava fronteiras. Um magnata que o mercado respeitava. E, quando o nome Vasconcelos era citado, até gente poderosa baixava a voz. Depois do casamento, porém, Arthur só tinha uma regra: Larissa. Ele a tratava como raridade. Protegia, cedia, colocava o mundo em ordem com a mesma naturalidade com que tirava um fio de cabelo do rosto dela. Até o dia em que o ex a humilhou, chamando-a de inútil, como se ela não valesse nada. Arthur nem discutiu. Um soco seco. O irmão dele no chão. Ele se inclinou um pouco, a voz baixa: — Minha esposa é o meu tudo. Não existe joia neste mundo, por mais rara e brilhante, que chegue perto da luz dela. Tudo o que for dela, eu apoio. Insulte-a de novo e você está fora da família Vasconcelos. Para sempre. Só muito tempo depois Larissa entenderia. O homem que ela sempre temeu a amava havia dez anos. E aquele "casamento por impulso"? Foi um plano paciente. Um laço doce armado para ela cair... e nunca mais querer sair.

Mas, depois de três anos de casamento, os dois viviam como completos estranhos. Quando Ivone ficou entre a vida e a morte, vítima de uma armadilha cruel, Fabiano, em vez de estar ao lado da esposa, acompanhava a antiga paixão da vida dele. Ivone decidiu arrancar aquele homem do coração, ainda que isso rasgasse a alma dela. Só que ela não imaginava que aquele sujeito, acostumado a mandar em tudo e em todos, não ia aceitar ser descartado tão fácil. Ele passou a rondar a vida dela como um fantasma insistente, se aproximando passo a passo, afastando qualquer outro homem que tentasse chegar perto e fechando todas as rotas de fuga dela. — Lá atrás, foi você que fez questão de se casar comigo. Enquanto eu não disser que a gente se divorciou, você não vai sair da minha vida nunca! — Declarou ele, certo de que ainda mandava nas regras do jogo. Ivone o encarou com frieza e respondeu: — Sinto muito. Sr. Fabiano, você já foi chutado pra fora do jogo por mim faz tempo. Quem decide o divórcio sou eu. Se eu digo que acabou, acabou.

On my birthday—the same day Troy hyped some "surprise" for me online—I saw a photo that afternoon. He was on my horse. With his assistant. His shirt hung open, red finger marks dragged across his chest. Caption? [First time in my life. Thanks to him.] The comments went wild: [Jealous of whoever touched those abs.] [That position... damn.] Troy liked that one. My chest went cold. I thought that side of him was just for me. Turns out—it could be anyone. I washed the horse myself. Scrubbed off every trace. Then I signed the ranch over to him. "You can give the rest away. Pick whoever you want." He lit up. I said yes to the arranged marriage.
