Once I became pregnant, I was hailed as the most precious woman in the underworld. My husband, the new Don of the Jenkins family, shut down an entire private hospital wing for my check-ups, while my father, the Collins Don, summoned every Michelin-starred chef in New York to the estate, just so I could pick whatever I craved. The baby I carried was destined to be the sole heir of the two most powerful mafia families. But on the day we were to sign the papers securing my child's inheritance, they both vanished. "An urgent family matter came up," my husband, Vincent, said, kissing my forehead. "We can finalize the child's inheritance when we get back. There's no rush." Shortly after they left, I received a link to an anonymous live stream. My father's voice came from the video, colder than I had ever heard it. "You're saying your marriage contract with Evangeline was never valid. Doesn't that make the child a bastard?" Vincent, lounging in a club, blew a smoke ring. Cradled in his arms was my half sister, Sarah. "Evangeline has always had all the love and affection. Her child will want for nothing." "Sarah has been mocked for her status for years. I have to make things right for her, give our child a legitimate name." In that moment, my heart seized, and I could barely breathe. Then my phone vibrated again. It was a text message: "Welcome home to the Gallo family, my queen." "Just give the word, and the child you carry will bear the Gallo name and become the most powerful heir in the American underworld."

Demi merebut cincin pusaka keluargaku, tunanganku, Luca memotong jariku dengan pemotong cerutu. Dengan bangganya ia menyematkan cincin itu ke jari Putri Keluarga Oller, Sophia. Luca mengejekku, “Pantaskah seorang yatim piatu sepertimu memakai pusaka Keluarga Will, simbol sang Godmother?” Sophia memamerkan cincin itu sambil berpura-pura tersenyum lembut dan berkata, “Kak, jangan marah ya. Nanti biarkan Luca menggantikanmu dengan satu jari emas, gimana?” Seluruh tamu menertawakanku, tapi aku juga ikut tertawa. Sambil menghapus air mata, aku bertepuk tangan pada Luca dan berkata, “Selamat ya, Luca.” “Dengan satu jariku, kamu menukar seluruh jalan hidup Keluarga Will.” Melihat wajahnya yang kebingungan, aku tersenyum kejam. “Kamu pikir itu hanya sekedar pusaka?” “Bukan. Itu adalah kunci tunggal untuk mengaktifkan aset triliunan atas namaku.” “Sejak cincin itu lepas dari tanganku, Keluarga Will sudah resmi memulai hitungan mundur menuju kebangkrutan.”

"I hate the effect you have on me" I said softly but I can feel my body betraying me by yearning for his touch. "It doesn't seem like that to me. You want this. You want me" He chuckled softly.
