Cut by the Don
I was performing the hundredth "restoration" surgery on my mafia husband's latest mistress when I finally decided to leave him.
For five years, I, Isabella Rossi, have lived a double life: the respected wife of a powerful Don, and the personal physician tasked with "purifying" the women he discards.
Vincent's twisted religious conviction is his law: only a wife untouched by any other man can bear his legitimate heir.
I was that pure wife, yet he treated me as his most unclean possession.
My love for him died a slow death. A thousand empty nights. It was killed by the cold steel of my own operating table. By the sounds of other women boasting about his touch.
The five-year prenuptial agreement that bound me to this hell was set to expire at midnight.
I had already called my grandfather, the only man Vincent truly fears. My escape was hours away.
By the time he realized his mistake, it was too late.
