Humble Simple And True

"في قصرٍ بُني على أنقاض الوفاء، يصبح الصمت أغلى أثمان الحرية.. فكم تبلغ قيمة الكبرياء حين يكون الثمن هو الروح؟" في عالمٍ يقدس المظاهر وتُباع فيه المشاعر في مزادات الكرامة الجريحة، تقف سديم أمام المرآة بكسوتها السوداء الفخمة والمحتشمة، لا كعروس، بل كرهينة. وافقت على دفع "دين" أخيها مروان، الرجل الكادح الذي قضى عشرين عاماً يصارع الحياة لأجلها، والذي يرى في عاصف "صديق العمر" والمنقذ الذي انتشلهما من العوز. لكن عاصف، البطل النرجسي والمملوك بخوفه من الهجر، لا يرى في هذا الزواج حباً. هو يسابق الزمن ليرمم كبرياءه الذي حطمته عروسه السابقة، متخذاً من سديم "درعاً" و"انتصاراً" أمام مجتمعٍ لا يرحم. هو يعتقد أنه المسيطر، بينما هو مجرد بيدق في لعبة أكبر خططتها أمه لترميم روحه المحطمة. بينما يبتسم مروان بصدق ممتن لصديقه الوفي، يحيط عاصف سديم بأسوار تملكٍ خانقة، محولاً صمته إلى حصار وغموضه إلى تهديد مبطن. هي سجينة ميثاقٍ لا يعلم مروان بحقيقته، وعاصف سجين ماضيه الذي يأبى أن يتركه. تتشابك الخيوط مع ظهور نايا، أخت عاصف الغامضة والوحيدة التي تدرك حجم "المقايضة"، لتبدأ سديم رحلتها في البحث عن ذاتها خلف أسوار "ثمن الكبرياء".

I was the daughter of a crime boss in Flonio. Initially, I was supposed to reveal my identity during my wedding. But my elder brother told me that someone was targeting me and that I could not expose myself. My fiance also took this chance to take off my wedding gown and help my maid into it. My bodyguard then stole my family token. I trusted them deeply, but when the wedding ceremony started, I saw my maid with one arm around my fiance. Meanwhile, her other hand lingered between my brother’s and bodyguard’s sensitive spots on their bodies. In response to my suspicions, my maid laughed wickedly. Then, she instructed someone to break my limbs. They locked me up in the basement and forced me to watch as they got more and more intimate. In the end, they skinned me alive and broke my bones. Before I breathed my last, they left me to the beasts. When I recalled the misery of my previous life, I broke my maid’s ribs with a few punches. “You can have my fiance, but you don’t deserve my family token!”

My older brother, Ethan Earnhart, was the Alpha of the Shadow Pack. Right now, he was slicing my chest open with a silver surgical blade. Beside him, my adopted sister, Sara, had tear-filled eyes. "Elina went as far as faking her own death just to escape the loan sharks. She even used the body of a disfigured rogue." Ethan's gaze was filled with disgust. He pointed at the bruises covering my body, marks left when I was alive, and explained calmly to the young healer beside him. "Look. This is what happens to a traitor who betrays the pack and sleeps with filthy rogues. Elina, being the liar she's always been, even found a stand-in for her little performance." My wolf soul hovered beside the operating table and watched in despair as he handled my body the way one would process prey. 'Ethan, that really is me. I was trying to retrieve something you lost. That was why they–' "Check the stomach contents," Ethan said flatly as he cut open my stomach. Unexpectedly, there was no food residue. Instead, there was a single ring. It was corroded black by stomach acid, but the emblem engraved on it was unmistakable. It was the Alpha heirloom Ethan had lost five years ago. I had swallowed it just before I died. I had to protect that secret even if I were dead. Ethan's hand trembled violently while holding the forceps. He tore into my facial flesh like a madman. "Elina?"

He thought my lack of education and proper upbringing was bad. My grandfather, the one who raised me, was dying. Just when I needed his help the most, he decided to teach me a lesson and show me my place. Without any help, my grandfather died, and like Lawrence wished, I knew my place. And I lost my love for him.

I'm the De Luca family's dirty little secret, their bastard daughter. And I was stupid enough to fall for Marco Moretti, the heir to our rivals. On our wedding day, my sister, Isabella, drugged me. When I woke up, she was wearing my dress. Standing at the altar. Becoming his wife. Heartbroken, I ran to a bar to drown my sorrow. And that’s where I discovered I was pregnant. Marco held me, crying. He swore he loved me, only me. He promised he’d divorce Isabella as soon as our child was born. But on the day I gave birth, Isabella murdered us both. Me and my baby. That’s when I finally understood. Marco would always choose a true-blooded princess of the Cosa Nostra. And me? The bastard? I was just a loose end. A problem to be erased. Then I opened my eyes. I was back. Back on the day she drugged me. Their wedding day. This time, I'm not marrying the heir. I'm marrying the Don. But first... I'm going to ruin this wedding.

I’m Isabella Russo, the mafia princess everyone loves to hate. Adrian Moretti—ice-cold underboss in a tailored suit—was sent to “discipline” me. I torched his villa, wrecked his meetings, even tried to make him lose control. At night, he did. Against glass, leather, marble—he taught me surrender and I hated how much I craved it. Then I learned the truth: Adrian was only a mask. His real name is Leon Moretti—heir to the empire and the fiancé promised to me since birth. It should have been a fairytale. Except my parents crowned a miracle sister who wasn’t a miracle at all. Elena slipped into my room, my heirloom, my future—and into his arms. When I was framed, caged in a walk-in freezer, whipped for a lie, he chose her. So I sold the engagement for $200M, left a single recording as proof, and vanished. By the time Leon becomes Don, he finally listens—to the tape that proves Elena’s an impostor… and to the echo of my footsteps leaving him for good. Now the most dangerous man in New York is done being careful. He’s hunting the woman he broke.
