“You are not a prisoner, but you are my wife. You are officially a Davenport for the next six months, so act like one!” He warned me. “Fuck you.” I spat at him. “If you want my dick, all you have to do is strip and bend over the table.

My family hates me for causing my brother's death. From then on, I become a child no one loves. Meanwhile, my cousin, Evelyn Green, who looks like my brother, becomes the apple of my parents' eyes. From the age of ten to 18, my days are a cycle of beatings and forced apologies. On my 18th birthday, Evelyn wears a gorgeous gown and basks in everyone's adoration, while I'm shoved around in a maid's uniform and hit like I'm not even human. In my darkest moment, Morgan Oakley, the mafia boss, saves me. He takes me home, and step by step, wins his way into my heart. Because of him, I learn what love can feel like. He treats me like a treasure and promises me forever. However, on the day we're supposed to register our marriage, he keeps me waiting for a whole day and night. He never shows up. As I'm about to leave, my phone starts buzzing. A text from Morgan pops up. "Jasmine, I'm sorry. I ran into an enemy and couldn't make it to the city hall. A storm's coming, so make sure you get home quick!" My heart clenches in panic. I'm about to text back and ask if he's okay when Evelyn's message comes right after his. "Jasmine, I'm the one he loves. He skipped marrying you today because of me. You must be devastated, right?" Then, she sends a video. In it, Morgan holds her gently, his voice soft as he comforts her. "Evie, don't cry. You once saved my life, so I'll do anything for you. If you don't want me to marry Jasmine, then I won't. I love you. I only took her in so I could keep her close. That way, she'd be right there when you needed blood." My parents were off to the side. They chimed in tenderly, "Don't cry, Evie. Morgan loves you. He only pursued Jasmine because of your condition. You have a coagulation disorder and need transfusions of Rh-negative blood whenever you get hurt." I stagger back when I hear that, dropping my phone to the ground. So, Morgan's sudden passion is laced with poison. He only pretends to love me just so he can turn me into Evelyn's walking blood bank! Everyone goes to so much trouble to hide the truth from me just so Evelyn doesn't need to suffer from her condition! Rain mixes with my tears as they slide down my face. I stare at my phone on the pavement as bitterness floods me. A thought forms—I want to leave them forever. I want to disappear so they'll never find me again.

Mein Mann, der Mafiaboss, verlor seine erste Liebe durch Selbstmord. Celeste Reyes konnte nicht ertragen, dass er mich heiratete. Seitdem trauerte Darius Sterling jeden Tag öffentlich um sie, und wir wurden zu einem Paar, das einander mehr verabscheute als jeden anderen Menschen. Als die Familie Moretti aus Eastbourne jedoch Auftragsmörder auf mich ansetzte, warf sich Darius vor mich und fing die Kugel ab, die für mich bestimmt war. Die Kugel war vergiftet. Als er kraftlos in meinen Armen lag, flüsterte er: „Ich habe dir das Leben gerettet. Meine Schuld gegenüber deiner Mutter ist beglichen. In unserem nächsten Leben sollten wir uns besser nicht mehr begegnen. Ich will dich nicht länger hassen. Ich wünsche mir nur, dass du immer das Mädchen von nebenan bleibst. Jetzt ist es Zeit für mich, bei Celeste zu sein.“ Und so starb er in meinen Armen. Ich weinte mir die Seele aus dem Leib, doch Darius sah mich nie wieder an. Erst da begriff ich, wie töricht und kindisch unser jahrelanger Hass gewesen war. Später, nachdem ich die Morettis ausgelöscht hatte, nahm ich mir seinetwegen das Leben. Doch als ich die Augen wieder öffnete, war ich zurück im Alter von zwanzig Jahren, im Jahr unserer Verlobung. Ich lehnte den Plan meines Vaters für eine arrangierte Ehe ab und entschied mich, nach New Verden zu gehen, um das Familienunternehmen zu führen. Diesmal würde ich mich von Darius fernhalten und ihm und Celeste meinen Segen geben.

No entanto, quando a família Moretti de Eastbourne envia assassinos atrás de mim, Darius recebe a bala que era para ser minha. A bala estava envenenada. Enquanto ele jaz, fraco em meus braços, ele sussurra: — Eu salvei sua vida. Minha dívida com sua mãe está paga. Em nossa próxima vida, não vamos nos encontrar novamente. — Não quero mais te odiar. Só espero que você seja sempre aquela garota da casa ao lado. Agora, é hora de eu ficar com Celeste. E, simples assim, ele morre em meus braços. Eu choro do fundo da minha alma, mas Darius nunca mais olha para mim. Só então percebo quão tolo e infantil foi o nosso ódio durante todos esses anos. Mais tarde, após eliminar os Moretti, eu tiro minha própria vida por ele. Contudo, quando abro os olhos novamente, estou de volta aos 20 anos, o ano do nosso noivado. Eu rejeito o plano do meu pai para um casamento arranjado e escolho ir para New Verden gerenciar os negócios da família. Desta vez, ficarei longe de Darius e darei a ele e à Celeste as minhas bênçãos.

My husband—the mafia boss—loses his first love to suicide. Celeste Reyes couldn't accept that he was marrying me. Since then, Darius Sterling mourns her publicly every day, and we become the kind of couple that despises each other more than anyone else. However, when the Moretti family of Eastbourne sends assassins after me, Darius takes the bullet meant for me. The bullet is poisoned. As he lies weakly in my arms, he whispers, "I saved your life. My debt to your mother is repaid. In our next life, let's not meet again. "I don't want to hate you anymore. I just hope you'll always be the girl next door. Now, it's time for me to be with Celeste." And just like that, he dies in my arms. I cry my heart out, but Darius never looks at me again. Only then do I realize how foolish and childish our hatred has been all these years. Later, after I eliminate the Morettis, I take my own life for him. Yet, when I open my eyes again, I'm back at 20—the year of our engagement. I reject my father's plan for an arranged marriage and choose to go to New Verden to manage the family business.

Her life, already filled with fear and anxiety, changes when Pierre Alexander, a jenius doctor, Xavier Evans, her husband's business rival, Jake Andrew, an adult site star, and Leonardo Salviero, a super hot mechanic, begin approaching her in sometimes unreasonable ways. Nina, who has tried to be a faithful wife for seven years, seems unable to maintain her loyalty when the four young men offer her wild fantasies from her past that she can't resist.
