Don Delillo Novel

In my last life, while my father lay on his deathbed, he asked me to choose—inherit his title and become the Don of Vale, or marry my boyfriend, Julian Moreau, and walk away from the family business for good. Becoming the Don meant a lifetime of danger, and likely a political marriage without love. Marrying Julian promised peace. I hesitated. Next morning after the party, I woke up in bed with Julian on my left and my best friend, Sebastian, on my right. I soon found out I was pregnant. With that, I thought the better choice would be marry either Julian or Sebastian—and to give up my right to inherit, handing it to my stepsister. After my father’s funeral, Julian, Vivienne, and Sebastian locked me away and tortured me for days—until my baby and I finally met a tragic end. When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the very day my father asked that question. This time, I didn’t hesitate. “I’ll break up with Julian and become the Don of Vale—on my own.”

Eu estava casada com Alexander há três anos. Todos temiam sua crueldade, mas ele sempre foi incrivelmente gentil comigo. Mas desde que Elena levou um tiro por ele durante um tiroteio, seis meses atrás, tudo mudou. Ele sempre dizia que ela se machucou salvando-o, então eu precisava ser compreensiva. No baile mais prestigioso da família, meu marido — o Don, Alexander — chegou com sua secretária, Elena, no braço. Preso ao peito dela estava o broche de rubi que simbolizava a posição da Donna da família. — Elena levou um tiro por mim. Ela gostou do broche, então deixei ela pegar emprestado por um tempo. De qualquer forma, você é a única Donna aqui. Tente mostrar alguma classe. Eu não discuti com ele. Apenas tirei minha aliança e puxei os papéis do divórcio: — Já que ela gosta tanto, ela pode ficar com ele. Inclusive com esse lugar ao seu lado. Eu também estou abrindo mão disso. Alexander assinou sem hesitar, um sorriso frio no rosto. — Que tipo de truque manipulador você está tentando agora? Você é uma órfã, separada da família, não vai sobreviver três dias na Sicília. Vou esperar você voltar implorando. Peguei um telefone via satélite criptografado que não usava há três anos. Alexander não sabia que eu era, na verdade, a filha mais nova da família mafiosa mais antiga da Europa. Mas a minha família e a de Alexander sempre foram inimigas. Para me casar com ele, eu tinha mudado de nome e até cortado laços com meu pai e meus irmãos. A ligação foi conectada. Respirei fundo e sussurrei: — Papa, eu me arrependo. Envie alguém para me buscar em duas semanas.

Am Vorabend unserer siebzehnten Hochzeitsplanung schwor mir mein Mann, der Mafia-Boss, dass die Zeremonie diesmal ungestört bleiben würde. „Diesmal verspreche ich es dir, Vicky.“ Seine Stimme klang ernst. „Ich habe Klara gesagt, dass sie morgen selbst zurechtkommen muss – selbst wenn der Himmel einstürzt.“ Das Baby in meinem Bauch war bereits im fünften Monat. Lorenz und ich waren seit drei Jahren zusammen, ich war im fünften Monat schwanger, und dennoch hatte nicht eine einzige Hochzeit stattgefunden. Denn zuvor hatte er die Hochzeit bereits sechzehn Mal abgesagt. Jedes einzelne Mal wegen seiner Ziehschwester Klara. Beim ersten Mal behauptete sie, Fieber zu haben. Noch im Brautkleid wartete ich die ganze Nacht mit Lorenz im Krankenhaus – nur um festzustellen, dass sie lediglich eine leichte Erkältung hatte. Beim zweiten Mal klagte sie über Herzprobleme. Lorenz ließ mich stehen und rannte zu ihr. In Wahrheit saß sie gemütlich beim Nachmittagstee mit Freundinnen. Beim dritten Mal sagte sie, sie hätte Angst vor dem Gewitter. Mitten im Ehegelübde ließ er mich allein – vor allen Gästen. Aber diesmal war alles anders. Vor drei Tagen war ein Brief aus Nordmark angekommen. Mein Vater, der Don der Familie Delbrück, hatte persönlich eine Einladung zur Rückkehr geschickt. Wenn Lorenz mich zum siebzehnten Mal wegen Klara im Stich lässt, werde ich für immer verschwinden.
