Sepuluh Tahun Terperangkap Di Pernikahan Yang Salah

Sepuluh Tahun Terperangkap Di Pernikahan Yang Salah

Hari peringatan pernikahan kami yang ke-10, suamiku, Franky melangkah masuk sambil merangkul pacar barunya yang ke-100. Lalu dengan tangannya sendiri melepas kalung simbol cinta kami dan memakaikannya ke leher gadis itu. Di tengah tawa para tamu, gadis itu dengan malu-malu menarik gaun yang kupakai dan berkata, “Kak, Pak Franky bilang dia ingin aku memakai gaun ini sekarang.” Gaun itu adalah hasil modifikasi dari gaun pengantinku sepuluh tahun lalu. Aku sengaja mengenakannya hari ini dan dengan bodohnya berpikir Franky akan mengingatnya. Namun, pada hari peringatan pernikahan kami, dia malah menyuruh istrinya melepaskan gaun di depan semua orang untuk pacarnya. Di tengah semua tatapan meremehkan itu, akhirnya aku memberinya senyuman tulus pertama yang kuberikan selama sepuluh tahun ini. “Franky, kita cerai saja.”

Dumped by the Don, Crowned by the Mob

Dumped by the Don, Crowned by the Mob

The night before our 17th wedding attempt, my mafia husband, Rafaeal Holloway, looks at me and promises an uninterrupted wedding. He solemnly swears. "Gianna, I promise you. I told Natalia that even if the sky falls, she'll deal with it alone." I am five months pregnant by then. After three years of dating and five months carrying his child, we've never managed to make it down the aisle because he's canceled the past 16 weddings. Every single time, it's for his sworn sister, Natalia Sullivan. The first time, she claims she has a fever. I spend the whole night at the hospital, still in my wedding dress, just to find out she has a mild cold. The second time, she claims her chest hurts. Rafael abandons me mid-wedding and rushes to her side, while she's out laughing over afternoon tea with friends. The third time, she cries for fear of thunder. He bolts mid-vows and leaves me alone in a hall full of staring guests. But everything's different now. Three days ago, a letter arrived from Northern Silenzio. My father, the Don of the Rossetti family, has finally summoned me home. If Rafael walks away for Natalia one more time, I'll leave for good.

Dumped at Noon, Settled by Night

Dumped at Noon, Settled by Night

Everyone in the Rossi family knows that their Don, Giovanni Rossi, loves me, Rebecca Costa, more than anyone else. Ever since we got together, he has stopped attending any social events that involve other women. We promised to marry once he returns from negotiating a dangerous arms deal in Aelfana. He was supposed to come back a week before the wedding, but instead, he returned on the eve of the wedding with Rosa Bianchi, his stepsister, in his arms. Rosa was unconscious, and traces of intimacy were visible on her skin. Giovanni kneeled before me, his expression remorseful. "Rebecca… I was drugged. I never meant to betray you. When Rosa threw herself at me, I thought she was you." And I believed him. At least, I did until I overheard a conversation in the changing room backstage at our wedding. One of his men asks, in disbelief, "Did you really mistake her for Rebecca?" "I did for the first night. But for the rest of the week… well, a man ought to have his bit of freedom before getting married." My fingers clench around my phone. In my inbox sits an unopened message—a marriage invitation from Angelo Calavaro, the most enigmatic Don in southern Ilya's underworld. I know what I have to do.

Since I was a kid, my parents drilled it in—you're gonna be a Corleone girl, Giovanni Corleone's property. "This is just an alliance. Don't expect anything more."

I thought maybe—finally—he felt the same way I had all along. Then I caught him kissing his stepmom. Funny. Just the night before, he told me kissing me made him sick. "I've been practicing with her—for your sake." So yeah. All that heat? Just rehearsal for her. So I ran. Took back my life—and our unborn daughter. The Don lost his mind looking for me. Begged me to come back—with the kid. But I would not stop for him anymore. I turned and walked straight toward the stage that was always mine.

Dix-sept ruptures : De fiancée à Reine de la Mafia

Dix-sept ruptures : De fiancée à Reine de la Mafia

La nuit précédant notre 17 èmes mariage, mon mari mafieux m'a promis que cette fois-ci, la cérémonie se déroulerait sans encombre. « Je te promets que tout se passera bien cette fois-ci, Vicky », sa voix était solennelle, « j'ai dit à Joanne que demain, quelle que soit l'importance de l'affaire, elle devra se débrouiller toute seule ». Le bébé dans mon ventre avait cinq mois. André et moi étions ensemble depuis trois ans, j'étais enceinte de cinq mois et la cérémonie de mariage n'a pas encore eu lieu. Car avant cela, il avait l'annulée seize fois. A chaque fois, c'était à cause de sa sœur adoptive Joanne. La première fois, elle a dit qu'elle avait de la fièvre, et je suis restée avec lui toute la nuit à l'hôpital sans changer ma robe de mariée, et j'ai découvert qu'elle n'avait qu'un léger rhume. La deuxième fois, elle a dit qu'elle avait des problèmes cardiaques, et André m'a laissée pour y aller, mais elle était en fait en train de prendre le thé avec une amie. La troisième fois, elle a dit qu'elle avait peur du tonnerre, et il m'a quittée au milieu de ses vœux, me laissant seule face à une maison pleine. Mais cette fois-ci, c'était différent. Il y a trois jours, j'ai reçu une lettre du nord de l'Italie, qui était une invitation à revenir de la part de mon père, l'ancien parrain de la famille Durant, lui-même. S'il partait pour Joanne pour la dix-septième fois, je serais partie pour de bon.

The Donna's Justice

The Donna's Justice

When I pushed through the main door, covered in blood, I found my amnesiac husband right on top of my best friend. His arm was wrapped around her waist with practiced ease, and she was passionately reciprocating his advances. "Ada will be devastated if she finds out…" Camilla said in a sweet voice through bated breaths. "After all, she really thinks you've lost your memories." Lucio chuckled softly and said in a mocking tone, "It's not my fault she loves me that much. Then again, it's a good thing for me since I can just let her do all the tough and dirty work." He leaned down and planted a kiss on Camilla's lips, mumbling, "Right now, you're the only one I recognize as my wife. Just wait. Once I sign the deal with the Della Veras, I'll have her kicked out and pass everything she owns to you. After all, I no longer remember a thing." Only then did it hit me. My husband's amnesia was all an act, a farce to fool me. Moreover, my best friend conspired with him to stab me in the back. Too bad they didn't know that the Della Vera family, the most feared Mafia family in Ritelle, only acknowledged one person: Me, Ada Rossi.

Vom Don verlassen, von der Mafia gekrönt

Vom Don verlassen, von der Mafia gekrönt

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.

Wedding on the Same Day, but He's Not My Groom

Wedding on the Same Day, but He's Not My Groom

I have been hopelessly in love with Don Lorenzo Greco since the first time I saw him ten years ago. As the only daughter of the long-established Messina mafia family, I have set aside my pride and chased after him for a decade. On my 25th birthday, the way Lorenzo looks at me finally changed. He's not seeing a child anymore. He's looking at a woman. Lorenzo says yes to me, and I finally kiss the mouth I've been dreaming of all this while. The next day, Lorenzo announces to the world that he will hold the wedding of the century. 9,999 roses, fireworks all night, and a spectacle so grand it will shock every family in Northern Darvent. I stand there with tears in my eyes as the fireworks spell out another woman's name. Elena Lagioia. The assistant who has always been at Lorenzo's side, the girl I have never once taken seriously. I plan to confront Lorenzo with a gun in my hand. However, I stop outside the door when I hear him speaking to his consigliere. "Elena's parents are gambling addicts and owe a large debt. If I don't marry her, she'll be sold to a brothel in Malicuria tomorrow. Let's keep Cinzia in the dark for now. After this is over, I'll divorce Elena and marry Cinzia. After all, she loves me so dearly." On Lorenzo's wedding day, I'm wearing a wedding dress and resting in the arms of a far more powerful Don of the Argento family from Southern Darvent. I look at Lorenzo and smile. It drives him crazy. He swears to do whatever it takes to win me back.
