“What? Ellie , you can’t be serious. That was ages ago. Ethan and I? That’s old history.” "Mm.” Eliana didn’t argue. Ivy laughed again, but it was thinner this time. “Come on. Don’t be paranoid.” “I’m not,” Eliana said simply. “I’m just… being honest.” She said nothing more. And Ivy, suddenly unsettled, muttered something about having a spa appointment and left soon after. As the door closed, Eliana leaned her head against the windowpane and allowed herself a quiet, knowing smile. She wasn’t the same girl anymore.And Ivy was beginning to see that ,because that was the thing about second chances—when you paid attention, you didn’t just remember the truth. You recognized it in real time.

A slow, sharp smile curved my lips as I reread the words. The audacity of that woman. She had the nerve to invite us—me— to discuss honoring the woman whose place I now occupied, especially when she was the one who had orchestrated the death of Cassian’s beloved Donna and their unborn son. Yet here she was, playing the devoted dowager, so concerned with memorials and propriety. What game are you playing, Claudia? I wondered, folding the letter neatly. Do you really think parading Donna’s ghost will unsettle me? Or are you trying to remind Cassian of what he lost?

“Far away. Somewhere they can never return from. Strip them of money, of power, of their names if you have to. Make them work, make them live without the means to crawl back here. I don’t want them dead, Logan. I want them forgotten. Let the world erase them.” I study her, searching for any crack in her resolve, but there is none. Her voice doesn’t waver, her eyes don’t shift. She means it. In that moment, I see not only the woman I love, but the Donna she was born to be, decisive, fair, unforgiving when it matters, merciful when it’s earned. I nod slowly. “As you wish.”

Even blurry, her posture was unmistakable. Anya Petrova. The woman who haunted his memory like perfume on forgotten sheets. The woman who left before dawn and took the air with her. He thought he’d imagined her—hazy fragments, distorted by alcohol and time and the kind of night you don’t talk about later. A night out of character, born from grief, rebellion, lust. Whatever it was, he’d buried it. Until now. He set the photo down carefully. Then picked it up again. His fingers trembled slightly.

The woman in a yellow coat, the man with his hand at the small of her back — not possessive, just present. Five years ago, I would have caught his scent from across the street. Known his rank, his pack, his purpose here. Now I was just a woman watching strangers pass. I set the sweet pea down. Picked up the next stem. Kept moving. I had a life here. A real one. Mrs. Osei, the shop, Luna, the early mornings that belonged to me. I had built it carefully, out of nothing, in a city where no one knew what I was.

After all, they were all eager to witness the 45-year-old Don marrying the 25-year-old woman who had almost married his son. I wore an ivory-white wedding gown with a 33-foot-long train. Vittore was waiting for me at the altar in a bespoke black suit, his blond hair perfectly slicked back. I could feel his gaze fixed intently on me as I was walking down the aisle toward him while holding Dad's arm. Dad's hand trembled as he placed mine in his, whispering, "Please treat her well, Don Corleone." Vittore remained silent. He simply clasped my hand, holding it firmly.

Three days before my wedding to Don Marco, I scheduled a memory erasure procedure. "Ms. Leah, are you certain you want to erase the memories from this period of your life and forget the people you knew?" I ran my fingers over the wedding invitation Marco had carefully prepared and said softly, "Yes." Three years ago, on the night Marco and I got engaged, Violetta was involved in a car accident. When she woke up, she identified me as the person responsible. That was when I learned that even an innocent person could become the villain in everyone else's eyes. Marco, the man I loved most, believed her and sent me to prison for three years. "Leah, you nearly destroyed her life. You should be gra

After I Took Three Bullets For Him, He Said He Was Just My Uncle I took three bullets for Don Lorenzo Moretti, the man I called my uncle. The last one nearly killed me. Only then did the family elders agree to name me Donna. But in the two weeks I lay unconscious, Lorenzo announced his engagement to Ava, the daughter of a family benefactor. The Rocci, my family, lost its power when I was ten. Ever since Lorenzo, a close friend of my father's, brought me to the Moretti estate, I was certain he would one day be my husband, despite our age gap. He always told me to find men my own age, but I just let it go. In my previous life, I crashed their engagement party, a decision that led to a

"If Serena hadn't had an accident five years ago, what made you think you had any right to marry Damian? She's back now. Give her back the title of Mrs. Lucchese." Serena stood on the staircase in a white dress, her curls loose and her eyes wet, looking like a flower the whole world existed to protect. "Eve, I didn't come back to steal anything. But if you're willing to let go, I'll always remember what you did for me." In my last life, I had broken down at those words. I had knelt in front of my parents and asked them why they were doing this to me. This time, I bent down and picked up the papers.

“Did you forget?” “Forget about what?” I asked, still confused. She gasped in surprise and covered her mouth. “Come on. Think about it a little bit more. Today’s the 16th of January.” My eyes went wide when the realization came to me. “Shit,” I cursed under my breath. “Oh god! You really forgot! Haven’t you planned anything?”
