I’m the best art forger and intel specialist in Chicago. And I fell for the man who owned it all, Don Vincenzo Russo. For ten years, I was his secret, his weapon, and his woman. I built his empire from the shadows. I thought I’d get a ring. After all, every night he was in this city, he was buried inside me, taking his pleasure. He’d whisper that I was his, that no one else felt this good. But this time, after he was finished with me, he announced he was marrying the Russian Bratva princess, Katerina Petrov. That’s when I knew. I wasn’t his woman. I was just a body. For an alliance, for her, he sacrificed me. He left me to die. So I destroyed every piece of the life he gave me. I made one call to my father in Italy. And then, I vanished. But when the Don who owned Chicago couldn't find his favorite toy… he went insane.

I was Vampire Lord Bastian’s exclusive blood thrall. My blood was an addiction he just couldn't kick. But six years ago, an accidental blood pact left me pregnant.

I took my son and walked out of his immortal life for good. The ever-so-elegant ancient vampire finally snapped. He tore into my empty lab, roaring, demanding to know where Liam and I had gone. But this time, neither Liam nor I would ever look back.

There's an unwritten rule in the Chicago Outfit. The Don never keeps a mistress for more than a hundred days. When the hundred days are up, the women he’s finished with always take the money and leave quietly. Once, someone asked him, unwilling to accept it: “Why?” Santino Falcone smiled softly.“Because I love my wife.” Everyone knew that his wife of seven years was his weak spot. But this new mistress wouldn’t behave.Emboldened by his favor, she sent me a taunting text message. “Arabella, isn’t your husband cute when he’s asleep in my arms?I’ve got plenty more photos. I can send them to you if you want.” “I’m his one true love. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll step down and give me your place as his wife.” I didn’t argue with her.Instead, I generously gave her my wedding ring. Because what she didn't know was that I had gotten my memory back. I was never the orphan Santino saved. I am the long-lost princess of New York’s most powerful family, missing for seven years. In three days, my brother Matteo’s armored motorcade will arrive in Chicago to take me home.

Claire Sterling landete im Gefängnis. Der Grund? Ihre eigene Familie hatte entschieden, dass sie im Weg war. Ihr Mann, Nathan Sterling, brauchte freie Bahn. Die Frau, die ihren Platz einnehmen sollte, stand schon bereit. Ihr eigener Sohn sagte ohne zu zögern gegen sie aus. Als sie aus der Haft entlassen wurde, machte Nathan ihr ein Angebot, das er für eine „vernünftige Lösung“ hielt: Sie solle sich entschuldigen, unauffällig an seine Seite zurückkehren und dem Namen nach Madame Sterling bleiben. Nichts weiter. Ihr Sohn verbarg seine Ablehnung nicht einmal. Claire lehnte ab. Die Scheidung wurde zu einem öffentlichen Desaster für Nathan. Claire ging mit dem Großteil des Vermögens, während ihr Ex-Mann weit mehr als nur Geld verlor: seine Glaubwürdigkeit, seine wichtigsten Verbündeten und die unumstößliche Kontrolle, an die er immer geglaubt hatte. Befreit von einer Ehe, die sie fast zerstört hätte, baute Claire ihre Karriere nach ihren eigenen Regeln wieder auf. Ihre Arbeit fand schnell Anerkennung, und ihr Name gewann wieder an Wert – unabhängig von den Sterlings. Zur gleichen Zeit zerfiel Nathans Leben, Stück für Stück. Die Frau, für die er alles riskiert hatte, zeigte ihre wahren, habgierigen Züge. Der Sohn, der seine Mutter verstoßen hatte, verstand zu spät, von wem er wirklich geliebt worden war. Die Familie, die Claire geopfert hatte, zerbrach von innen heraus. Als Nathan und sein Sohn schließlich an ihrer Tür erschienen, war von ihrer einstigen Arroganz nur noch Bedauern übrig. Sie baten sie, zurückzukommen, als wäre Vergebung eine Selbstverständlichkeit. Claire hörte ihnen zu. Dann traf sie ihre Entscheidung. Sie war nicht mehr die Frau, die darauf wartete, auserwählt zu werden. Von nun an entschied sie allein, wer einen Platz in ihrem Leben verdiente – und sie hatte es absolut nicht eilig.
