Vendida Para O Don

To earn a place in the Nostra family, I forge a new identity. The night my lie unravels, Don Nostra looks at me as if I'm dirt at the bottom of his shoe. I press a razor blade to my wrist. "Kick me out of the family, and I'll die right here." "Fine. Since you want to be my wife that badly, I'll give you what you want," Lorenzo Nostra snickered. After that, he brings home woman after woman. He forces me to kneel outside his bedroom door, saying, "Watch and learn. This is how you please your Don." The stinging pain in my knees is nothing compared to the chill in my heart. When he is done, he towers above me. "All this for a title," he says with a sneer. "You really put up with anything." Enduring him becomes the only way I can survive this world. Then, one day, he walks in with a civilian girl named Maria Romano. "Go. Bring her the heirloom Madre left behind," he commanded. This time, I refuse. I turn and walk away, never once looking back. When Lorenzo uncovers the truth, he loses his mind and begs me to come back.

Eveyln White was used to living a double life - college student by day at the top of her class, mousy and introverted, and a bombshell stripper by night only known as Eve. Things all come to a head when her bouncer boyfriend, Charlie, angers a patron of the club, who turns out to be one of the most dangerous men in the world, Mafia Boss Antonio Bernoti.

The heir to the New York mafia family, the Donovitch crime family, chose me as a potential fiancée candidate. But I refused to become his wife and the future Madre of the Donovitch family. Because in my previous life, he missed the desperate call from his childhood sweetheart on our wedding night. That led to the sweetheart being killed by a Mexican cartel in revenge. He vented all his frustration on me, using sulfuric acid to disfigure me, tearing off my limbs. He tormented me for five long years. Finally, he used the punishment method for a traitor to stuff me into a gasoline barrel and burn me alive. In this life, I will definitely change my destiny. He has a thing for his stepsister, so I'll let them have each other. But this time, that cold and arrogant man ends up crying and begging me to come back.

En mi quinto año de matrimonio con el Don de una poderosa familia mafiosa, descubrí que el amuleto de protección que me regaló me provocaba dolores de cabeza cada vez que lo llevaba conmigo. Como cirujana, esto me alarmó. Tomé los pequeños sobres que encontré dentro del amuleto y los llevé al laboratorio de toxicología del Hospital Kosley. El médico los inspeccionó y me dijo que contenían un tipo de veneno de acción lenta que no solo daña el cuerpo de la víctima, sino que también la vuelve infértil después de un tiempo. Lloré y exclamé: —¡Pero eso es imposible! ¡Mi esposo fue quien me dio esto! Se llama Vincenzo Cursley. ¡También es el dueño de este hospital! El médico me miró confundido. —Señorita, por favor, deje de decir tonterías. Conozco al señor Cursley y a su esposa. Son muy cercanos e íntimos entre ellos. Además, la señora Cursley dio a luz a un bebé hace poco. Ambos están ahora en la sala VIP, cuidando de su bebé. Entonces, el médico me mostró una foto en su teléfono. Vincenzo vestía su traje negro habitual con el emblema de la familia Cursley bordado en él. Sostenía a un bebé en brazos, y en cuanto a la mujer que estaba a su lado... La conocía. Se llama Claudia Henderson. Y Vincenzo siempre se ha referido a ella como su hermana adoptiva.

I am the wife of Anthony Caster, don of the mafia family in New York. When I was nine months pregnant, he brought a woman named Evelyn Graves into the manor, claiming she’d saved his life. That was the day my nightmare began. She put something in my food. Next thing I knew, I was doubled over in pain. And she had the nerve to blame it on me—said I was being reckless with what I ate. She lost her footing and fell down the stairs, but she told everyone I was the one who shoved her. Every day, she’d cry in front of Anthony about how saving him had left her wounded and unable to bear children, how seeing a pregnant woman broke her heart. But the moment she turned to me, the tears were gone, replaced by a cold smile. “As long as I’m here,” she whispered, “your babies will never be born.” Anthony was convinced I was jealous of her. He locked me away in the abandoned attic of the manor and said, “Reflect on your actions and stop bullying Evelyn.” On the first day they shut me in, the contractions began. I screamed, I begged, I banged on the door. The butler heard me and went to inform Anthony. He said, “Amelia, your due date is three days away. Stop putting on an act. Three days in a snowstorm and you came out fine. This? You can handle this.” On the second day, my water broke. I screamed at the top of my lungs, my fingernails digging into the cracks of the wall, blood spilling all over the floor. The butler went to Anthony again. Evelyn said, “Anthony, she’s making all that noise because she wants you to feel sorry for her and let her out. If you give in now, she’ll only grow more reckless later.” He believed her. On the third day, I stopped screaming. Anthony thought I had finally learned my lesson, unaware that I had already died from the difficult labor. When he finally opened that door, all he would find was my rotting, putrid body.

Eu concordei em me transferir da Academia Central do Lobo com Lucien porque ele disse que estava sofrendo bullying. Aos dezoito anos e ainda não despertado, em uma academia obcecada por pureza de linhagem e dominância, ele se destacava de todas as formas erradas. Então, ele me implorou para partir com ele, para nos mudarmos para uma escola menos exigente, onde a linhagem importasse menos. No dia anterior ao que deveríamos finalizar tudo, eu fui procurá-lo. Do lado de fora da porta. Foi quando eu ouvi. Um de seus companheiros Betas falou arrastado, divertido. — Eu admito, Lucien. Fingir que você estava sendo caçado apenas para fazê-la deixar a Academia Central por você. Outra voz hesitou. — Vocês dois cresceram juntos. Você vai realmente deixá-la ir assim? Lucien respondeu sem pausa, seu tom relaxado, levemente divertido. — Não é nem no exterior. Ela ficará bem. Então, mais frio. — Ela se agarrou a mim desde que éramos crianças. Eu estava ficando cansado disso. Isso é… eficiente. Eu não o confrontei. Eu me virei e fui embora. De volta ao meu quarto, reabri o formulário de transferência. Risquei o nome da academia de lobisomens comum que ele alegou precisar, e escrevi o nome daquela em que meus pais insistiram anos atrás. Todos haviam esquecido de algo. Eu sou a única herdeira da Alcateia Bloodmoon. E Lucien, um filho ilegítimo tolerado pelo Alfa da Silvercrest, nunca tocaria o trono de Alfa sem um vínculo formal comigo. Um dia, ele perceberia que o que descartou não foi apenas a minha devoção.

Depois de renascer. A primeira coisa que eu e minha irmã fizemos foi trocar de casamento. Na vida passada. Eu e minha irmã, Leticia Coelho, nos casamos no mesmo dia. Ela, gentil e recatada, casou-se com o general da Marinha, Marcos Falcão, frio e distante. Por Marcos ter perdido o aniversário de casamento para acompanhar o aniversário da sua primeira paixão, ela quis uma explicação. Ele, porém, afirmou estar de consciência tranquila, e assim os dois entraram numa guerra fria que durou cinquenta anos. Já eu, de temperamento explosivo, do tipo que prefere agir a discutir, acabei casada com o contador de uma fábrica mecânica. O contador era calmo e vivia reclamando que eu falava alto demais e não sabia me arrumar. A cada três dias era uma discussão pequena; a cada cinco, uma briga grande. No fim, brigávamos tanto que ele acabou simplesmente não voltando mais para casa. Em menos de um ano de casamento, nos divorciamos. Ao abrir os olhos novamente, eu e Leticia voltamos ao dia em que nos casamos juntas...
