Valeria DeLuca built her empire from nothing, turning an old vineyard into a prestigious wine brand. But her family—greedy, reckless, and selfish—destroyed everything. Her father and brother gambled away her fortune, and when the debtors came knocking, her entire world crumbled. Then came Dante Moretti, a feared mafia king, offering a twisted deal. At an underground auction, he silenced the room and made his bid. "Isn’t she up for sale as well?" $200 million. For her. Sold like property. Trapped in his world. But Valeria was no helpless victim. If Dante wanted her submission, she would give him seduction instead. If he wanted her loyalty, she would take his power. But there was something Valeria didn’t know. Dante orchestrated her downfall. He had planned it all—her family’s destruction, the debts, the auction. He had wanted her in his world from the very beginning. And when she found out, there would be hell to pay.

El mismo día en que confirmó su nuevo embarazo, Valeria Soto hizo otro descubrimiento devastador: su esposo, Javier Vega, ya compartía un hogar con Alicia Castillo, la joven becaria de escasos recursos a quien ella misma había ayudado. Resultaba que, mientras Valeria se consumía en la aflicción por la pérdida de su hijo, Javier celebraba con su amante el nacimiento de su vástago. Resultaba que la compañía que ella había fundado con sus propias manos, ya había sido usurpada por la amante. Resultaba que incluso la casa conyugal, que creía su exclusiva, tenía una réplica idéntica que Javier había construido para la otra. En ese instante, todo rastro de amor por Javier se esfumó de su pecho, dejando solo un odio denso y amargo. Valeria escondió el informe de embarazo y exigió el divorcio con una frialdad decisiva. Pero Javier, con su tono autoritario de siempre, respondió: —Valeria, si te arrepientes y me suplicas ahora, puedo hacer como que ese acuerdo de divorcio no existe. Ella se volvió para marcharse, lanzando con serenidad: —Señor Vega, nos vemos en la oficina del registro civil para el divorcio. Tiempo después, fue Javier quien finalmente bajó su orgullosa cabeza. Frente a una Valeria renovada e impresionante, suplicó con arrepentimiento que volviera a mirarlo siquiera una vez. Ella, sin embargo, solo esbozó una sonrisa distante: —Señor Vega, llegó demasiado tarde. Ya nunca más latirá mi corazón por usted.

Mi novio, Pablo Pimentel, es el heredero de la familia más poderosa de la capital. Su fortuna supera los cien mil millones de dólares. Para ponerme a prueba, durante siete años de relación, nunca me regaló nada, nunca gastó un solo centavo en mí. Ni siquiera cuando iba a comprar condones: insistía en pagar mitad y mitad. Después, mi madre se enfermó de gravedad. Les pedí dinero a todos los familiares y amigos que pude. Solo me faltaban dos mil dólares para cubrir el costo de la cirugía. Le supliqué, le rogué. Pero Pablo no me prestó ni un dólar. Tuve que pagar yo sola los gastos del funeral de mi madre. Cuando regresé a casa para recoger mis cosas, encontré por casualidad una lista de regalos que le había comprado a Sara García: una villa de lujo, bolsos de marcas exclusivas, joyas valoradas en cientos de millones de dólares… También vi los audios en el grupo con sus amigos: "Pablo, ¿es cierto que Leticia se arrodilló para pedirte dos mil dólares?" Pablo se rió con frialdad, su voz sonó despreocupada, casi divertida. "Sara tenía razón: quien se arrodilla por tan poco dinero no es más que una interesada. Apenas llevamos siete años juntos y ya está desesperada por sacarme dinero." Resultó que siete años de "prueba" no valieron más que un comentario venenoso de su vecinita de al lado. No importa. Desde el momento en que mi madre murió, ya lo había decidido: desaparecer de su vida para siempre.

When Miles Morretti abandons Lila at the altar for the third time—choosing his manipulative stepsister Valeria over her yet again—Lila makes the most impulsive decision of her life. She calls Alexander Calvert, her childhood best friend, and asks him to be her groom. Ten minutes later, she's married to the right man. For three years, Lila poured her heart into Miles and her talent into his company, only to watch Valeria steal credit for every success while Miles remained blind to the truth. But walking away from Miles means walking away from the empire she built—and watching it crumble without her. As Lila's new marriage blossoms into genuine love, Miles finally realizes what he's lost. His company is failing, Valeria's lies are exposed, and the woman he took for granted is thriving without him. But some mistakes can't be undone, and some chances don't come twice. A story of betrayal, empowerment, and discovering that the love you've been searching for might have been right beside you all along.

Valeria Romano was nineteen when her father was murdered. For five years she trained, sacrificed and bled ... building her entire life around one name. Lorenzo De Luca. The mafia king she believed gave the order. When she finally gets her shot at him, he doesn't run. He sits her down and shows her a photograph. The man responsible for her father's death was never Lorenzo. It was her uncle Marco. The man who handed her the wrong name the morning after the murder and watched her chase the wrong target for five years while he rebuilt his empire on her father's grave. Lorenzo proposes a contract marriage ... a strategic alliance that puts them both inside striking distance of Marco before he buries the truth permanently. Valeria agrees. Not because she trusts him. Because Marco Romano just became her real target. What follows is a race against a closing window. Spies inside the estate. A bought witness. A dead man who turns out to be very much alive. Two people who came together as enemies slowly building something neither of them has a name for. And a summit where Valeria must stand before the five ruling families with five years of truth ... and finally make it count. Marco goes to a cell. The war ends. But war leaves marks. The real question driving this story is never whether Valeria can destroy the man who killed her father. It is whether she can survive who she became in the process ... and whether the man she married to win a war is the same man worth staying for when it is over. Some revenge stories end with justice. This one is just getting started.

Forced into marriage as a substitute for her twin sister, Valeria Hale finds herself bound to a man feared by all—Mr. Devil. Rumors of his cruelty and ruthless nature paint a terrifying picture, and she braces herself for the worst. But her mystery husband never shows himself. Instead, she is drawn to his devastatingly handsome assistant, Zane Michaels—a man who embodies everything she has ever desired. She knows she shouldn’t want him. She knows she shouldn’t crave his touch. Yet, she does. Torn between forbidden attraction and the looming wrath of the husband she has never seen, Valeria fights to suppress her feelings. But her world shatters when she discovers the truth—Zane and Mr. Devil are the same man. She had fallen for the devil himself without even knowing it. Now, faced with his deception and the secrets surrounding their marriage and her birth, Valeria must decide—was she merely a pawn in his grander scheme, or was their love the most dangerous game of all?

En el baño de la oficina, oí a alguien hablando mal de mí. Era la pasante a la que guié durante tres meses. Se quejaba: —Es una vieja bruja sin tacto, como un robot con el cerebro apagado. Yo ya estaba a punto de abrir la puerta para interrumpirlas cuando otra, entre risas, remató: —Faltan papeles. Las facturas no están en regla. Sin la firma del director no se puede pagar. ¡Ya nos sabemos de memoria sus frases de siempre; puro teatro! Cuando se fueron, regresé en silencio a mi oficina. La pasante azotó una pila de solicitudes de reembolso con sus facturas adjuntas sobre mi escritorio. —No vayas a buscar cualquier pretexto para negarles el reembolso otra vez. Eché un vistazo a las facturas falsas y, por primera vez, no las cuestioné. Esta vez, sonreí apenas: —Me duele la cabeza; no logro leer bien la letra.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" He asked coldly without an expressio. She smiled faintly and said straightforwardly, "I agree to divorce." "However, I have a condition." Jenna licked her red lips, as if she had made up her mind, "I want 50 million compensation." "As long as you sleep with me for one night, I will agree." He gave her a cold gaze, with a scornful smile on his perfect lips. "Deal! Mr. Richards, no pay no goods.
