Lucy Torres Clepto

Sophia Ivanov Loosing my mother at the age of 16, the only person out of my parents who showered me with love, being left behind with the person who hated me. I always thought it was because I was a girl but he never looked at my baby sister Lucy with the look of disgust on his face. He always had the look of adoration and affection in his eye's whenever he looked at my brother's and Lucy. At he age of 20, my wedding was ambushed by a mafia, my husband killed in between the crossfire and me being rushed to the hospital.Waking up in that hospital I wasn't the same giddy Sophia. I started training, getting better then my brother's. Papa giving me extra attention then my brother's, taking me on mission's with him. Papa never let my brothers go on mission's. That was our father and daughter time. Killing people in cold blood without any remorse. Years went past and my older brother Alessandro died. A nother person I held dearly to my heart being ripped away from me. That same year Papa stepped down as the Don of the Russian mafia, handing the responsibility over to me. Taking the Russian mafia to the next level, continuing papa's legacy but ten times better. I was worse then papa was and people feared me more then papa. I was a Ivanov, this was my destiny but as the years went past, mafia's got fearless because papa got old and they thought papa was still the Don. Mafia's who got bold enough, to threaten my family and my mafia. I took care of them one by one but what I never expected was to find out the truth about my family, about everything I thought I knew my whole life.

Amelia Carter has only loved one man in her entire life. And that's her husband, Noah Allen. But she received nothing but heartbreak for her love. On their second anniversary, Noah came home with her best friend, who was pregnant for him, and threw divorce papers at Amelia's face. "You're barren, and you have nothing to offer me. Lucy will be my wife from now.” He yelled while throwing Amelia's bags out of the house. Amelia begged with tears but her pleas turned on deaf ears, and she was thrown out to the streets. As she contemplated how to take her own life, a fleet of cars surrounded her, and the city's wealthiest billionaire, Damian Donovan, stepped out. "Amelia, will you marry me? I will give you everything you desire if you become my wife," he offered, extending his hand to her. "How do you know my name?" Amelia asked him, dumbfounded. "I know more than just your name," he replied. "In fact, I know everything about you, including your divorce. And I also know you want revenge on your best friend and ex-husband. I can help you." ************************* Damian didn’t believe in love, but he needed a wife to claim the inheritance his uncle left him. Amelia needed to take revenge on her ex-husband, and what better way to do it than a marriage of convenience with his worst enemy? There were only two rules in their fake marriage: no entanglement or sexual relationship, and they would go their separate ways after the arrangement was over. But their attraction for each other is more than they bargained for. When feelings start to get real, and Noah wants Amelia back, will Damian let her go? Or will he fight for what he believes is his?

Am Tag der geplanten Zwillingsgeburt bestach ich den Hausarzt. Ich ließ mir alle starken Wehenhemmer der Klinik injizieren, um die Entbindung künstlich zu verzögern. Warum? Weil in meinem letzten Leben, Vincent Corleone – mein Ehemann, der Don – behauptete, eine geringe Spermienzahl zu haben. Um einen Erben zu hinterlassen, unterhielt er zehn Geliebte. Er verkündete: Wer zuerst einen Sohn gebäre, deren Sohn werde der nächste Don der Familie Corleone. Er sagte, sobald ich mein Kind vor allen anderen gebäre, würde er alle Geliebten fortschicken und meinem Sohn die Nachfolge der Familie überlassen. Ich glaubte ihm. Als ich unerwartet mit Zwillingen schwanger wurde, zitterte ich vor Aufregung. Doch unmittelbar nach der Geburt ließ er mich und die Neugeborenen in den kalten Weinkeller werfen und verbot jedem, sich uns zu nähern. „Lucy kommt aus einfachen Verhältnissen. Ich wollte ihrem Kind lediglich einen legitimen Status geben, damit es ihr und dem Jungen künftig besser geht. Doch du hast absichtlich Informationen durchsickern lassen! Aus Verzweiflung starb sie bei der Geburt – mit dem ungeborenen Kind.“ „Du bist so grausam, dass du es nicht verdienst, die Mutter des Erben der Familie Corleone zu sein! Denk über dein Verhalten nach, in drei Tagen lasse ich dich wieder hinaus.“ Dann befahl er dem Butler, die Kellertür von außen zu verrammeln. Doch er wusste es nicht: In jener Nacht brach im Weinkeller ein Feuer aus, und ich wurde gemeinsam mit meinen Kindern in den Flammen verbrannt. Als ich die Augen wieder öffnete, befand ich mich in der Nacht vor der Entbindung. In diesem Leben würde ich nicht länger die Donna sein. Sobald ich die Kinder geboren und meine Kräfte zurückgewonnen hätte, würde ich meine Kinder nehmen und für immer verschwinden.

— Malu, eu te amarei para sempre! — Eduardo rugiu em desespero com a voz carregada de desejo. No instante em que estavam prestes a alcançar o clímax, o celular dele começou a vibrar insistentemente. Em um momento como aquele, é claro que ele não deu importância. Mas logo a tela se acendeu e, no momento, que ele reconheceu o nome escrito na notificação, seus movimentos pararam de repente. Maria Luíza ouviu-o atender: — Alô? — Edu, você sabia que a Jordana... — No silêncio da noite, a voz do outro lado soou nítida. — Fale mais baixo, o momento não é conveniente. — Eduardo interrompeu em árabe, num tom contido. — O resultado dos exames saiu. — Do outro lado, a pessoa também passou a falar árabe, mas a voz continuava alta. — Jordana está com câncer terminal, e só tem um mês de vida! Ela quer ser sua esposa. Você pode realizar o último desejo dela antes que ela morra? — O quê? — O rosto de Eduardo mudou drasticamente. — Espera por mim! — Malu, surgiu uma urgência. — Ele se voltou para Maria após desligar o telefone. — Eu preciso sair um instante. Fique em casa descansando, eu volto logo. Sem esperar pela resposta dela, Eduardo levantou-se, lavou-se rapidamente, trocou de roupa e saiu sem olhar para trás. Logo em seguida, o celular de Maria vibrou. A tela iluminada mostrava a mensagem de Jordana Torres: [Maria, você perdeu. Eu já te disse antes que o Eduardo é meu.] E logo acima, tinha uma mensagem enviada por ela três dias antes: [Se eu tivesse câncer, você acha que Eduardo te deixaria para vir atrás de mim? Eu aposto que sim.] O olhar de Maria ergueu-se lentamente desviando a tela do celular até a porta do quarto, ainda aberta. Eduardo não sabia, mas ela já dominava o idioma árabe há tempos, e tinha entendido cada palavra daquela conversa. Depois de muito tempo em silêncio, um sorriso amargo se desenhou em seu rosto. — É... eu perdi...
