I had been Joey Jensen's mate for six years when I was kidnapped by rogues while trying to protect him. After finally making my way back to the pack, I discovered he already had another she-wolf, Courtney Ogley, by his side. Worse, he even made my son, whom I had almost died giving birth to, call her "Mom". Heartbroken, I went to the Werewolf Council and demanded an explanation from Joey. Under pressure from the entire pack, Joey reluctantly exiled Courtney. But from that moment on, he blamed me for everything. He said it was my fault he lost his beloved, and that I had robbed our son of his mother. Even my own mother resented me, saying I had torn the family apart. Surrounded by coldness and endless accusations, I slowly slipped into despair. Later, when the pack declined and was overrun, I was captured and sentenced to be beheaded. Just as I prepared to face death calmly, Joey stepped forward and fought the wolves alone. I carried him on my back and escaped, but his injuries were too severe. He was already dying. With his last breath, he said, "Consider my life a repayment to you. If there's another life, please don't stand in the way of my happiness with Courtney." I agreed through tears. But in the end, I was beheaded anyway. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the very day I returned to the pack.

Setelah terlahir kembali, hal pertama yang dilakukan Amalia Moore adalah berlutut di hadapan kedua orang tuanya. Setiap kata yang terucap dari bibirnya penuh dengan sarat ketulusan. "Ayah, Ibu, tentang perjodohan dengan Keluarga Lewis, aku memilih untuk nikah dengan Joey Lewis." Mendengar pernyataan putri mereka yang begitu tiba-tiba, orang tua Amalia tampak benar-benar terkejut. "Amalia, bukankah orang yang kamu sukai itu Hugo? Lagi pula, Joey adalah paman Hugo." Seakan teringat sesuatu, sorot mata Amalia sedikit berubah. Suaranya mengandung kepedihan yang sulit disembunyikan. "Justru karena aku tahu konsekuensi dari mencintainya, aku nggak lagi berani mencintai." "Ayah, Ibu, selama ini aku nggak pernah minta apa pun dari kalian. Sebagai nona dari keluarga terpandang yang telah nikmati kemewahan dan nama besar keluarga, aku sadar nikah bisnis adalah tanggung jawab yang harus kupikul. Aku hanya punya satu permintaan ini. Tolong, penuhi permintaanku."

On the night of our anniversary, I had prepared a new set of lingerie for my Mafia husband Joey, but he had prepared divorce papers for me instead. A Cuban cigar was clamped between his teeth, a look of pure entitlement on his face. "Adriana, we need to divorce. Vivian's father is a capo. If I marry her, my future's set." "Look, sweetheart, you're just a broken family's leftover daughter. You should be grateful I kept you around this long." "Once I have the family ring, maybe I'll throw you a few scraps, let you be my little side piece." Everyone expected the daughter of a fallen family to step aside for his ambition, to be the loyal dog I'd been for the past seven years. But that night, I made a deal with the devil. I accepted a match arranged by my family and married the true king of New York's underworld. I vanished from Joey's world completely. Three years later, I returned to New York on my husband's arm. We were there on family business. Dante was called away for something urgent, leaving me to wait for him at his private club. I never expected to run into Joey, the man I hadn't seen in three years. "That's enough, Adriana. Stop with the childish tantrums." "Our son Angelo's almost six. He needs care. I'm being generous, offering you a position as his nanny." I laughed. What was this idiot talking about? He was calling the most feared and revered Donna in all of New York a nanny?

Setelah Joey kehilangan penglihatannya, aku rela mendonorkan korneaku padanya tanpa ragu-ragu. Dia bersumpah tidak akan pernah mengecewakanku. Namun, pernikahan kami malah terus diundur sejak kekasih lamanya tiba-tiba pulang dari luar negeri. Di hari ulang tahunku, dia telat memberiku hadiah. Aku menerima hadiah itu dengan penuh penantian. Namun, yang kuterima ternyata adalah dua lembar tiket bioskop. Pertanyaanku padanya malah membuatnya kesal. "Siapa bilang orang buta nggak bisa nonton bioskop? Kamu jadi buta karena keinginanmu sendiri, bukan aku yang mencelakaimu. Jangan asyik ungkit masalah ini!" Kekasih lamanya bersikap sok lembut. "Maaf ya, Kak. Film itu nggak cocok dengan seleraku. Kalau kamu juga nggak mau pergi, buang saja tiketnya!" Aku merobek tiket itu, lalu meninggalkan rumah. Namun, aku malah mendengar bahwa Joey jadi kehilangan akal setelah tidak bisa menemukan pengantin di acara pernikahannya.
