Vendida Para O Don

Eu mantive um relacionamento por sete anos com o melhor amigo do meu irmão mais velho, o Alfa Alexander Parker. Mas o nosso relacionamento sempre ficou escondido nas sombras. Depois de beber aguardente demais numa noite, Alexander ficou completamente bêbado e me disse: — Willow, a Stella está com um filhote agora. Se ela não tiver um companheiro, os anciãos vão expulsá-la da alcateia. Tudo bem se eu der a ela a posição de Luna por enquanto? Num tom calmo e dócil, respondi: — Tudo bem. Na minha vida anterior, eu não aceitei a sugestão de Alexander. Também insisti em realizar a cerimônia de acasalamento com ele. Enquanto isso, a barriga de Stella Lockhart continuou crescendo com o passar das semanas. No fim, ela já não conseguia mais esconder. Enfurecidos, os anciãos, acabaram expulsando-a da alcateia. Depois que Stella foi embora, Alexander nunca mais voltou para casa, nem me dirigiu uma única palavra. Eu sabia que ele colocava toda a culpa em mim. Algum tempo depois, morri consumida pela culpa e pela depressão. Quando eu estava prestes a fechar os olhos, vi Alexander invadindo meu quarto, alarmado. Stella, que supostamente tinha sido expulsa da alcateia, vinha logo atrás dele, com um filhote nos braços. Foi então que eu finalmente entendi que, apesar de Alexander ter salvado Stella, ele nunca foi o companheiro mais adequado para mim. Agora que renasci, não recusei a sugestão dele. Em vez disso, decidi cortar completamente todos os laços entre nós, para que ele e Stella pudessem viver felizes para sempre.

On the day we were supposed to get engaged, my fiance, Christopher Vittorino, slid the ring—that was supposed to be mine—onto Lina Sorenzo, my stepsister's finger, right in front of the entire family. Christopher's uncle, Don Mark Vittorino, was the one who had specifically ordered his subordinates to deliver the ring that symbolizes the wearer's status as the future Donna of the Vittorino family to Christopher himself. I could only stare at Christopher's deep blue eyes in disbelief. Just as I was about to question him, he just gazed at me with a stony expression. Even his tone was cold and rigid. "The Don intends to send me to Maravena for the next five years to develop my own business there. Once I return, I'll take over the family business. "You don't have any skills at all, Isla. If you stay with me, you'll just be a hindrance to me and cause me unwanted trouble. "Lina, on the other hand, is fluent in Maravenese. Not to mention, she knows how to expand the family business overseas. She will serve as a brilliant assistant for me." After that, Christopher took Lina's hand and left the venue with her, not caring about the fact that the leaders of the other branch families as well as the elders kept murmuring among themselves. Because of that, I ended up becoming the laughingstock of the entire family. Five years later, Christopher and Lina return to the country. When he spots me showing up at a family gathering held by Mark with a ruby ring that signifies my status as the Donna on my finger, his expression changes instantly. "I can't believe you learned to steal, Isla!" I just ignore Christopher's accusations in favor of looking for the Black Rose Medal that my son, Toby Vittorino, has lost. That medal is a gift he received on his fourth birthday from Mark. Poor Toby has been sobbing for a long time because of its disappearance. I need to hurry up and find it as soon as possible.

It's supposed to be a punishment, but it ends with me freezing to death in the freezer. My fiance, Carlo Vesta, also known as the heir of the Vesta family, only remembers that I exist three days later. Now, I'm just floating around while watching him hug my frozen corpse, his body trembling violently. I notice how broken his expression is, and soon, I witness him piecing together the truth that I've brought into my grave with me. It's too late, Carlo. But it's fine. I'm right here, watching you. I want to see how you're going to face the truth of you personally locking up the woman you love in her own grave.

I was blamed for a murder I never committed, rejected by my mate, and tortured day and night by my stepbrothers. I was seen as nothing but a mere slave, even though I was the alpha's daughter, a low-ranking wolf with no status—or so I thought. Now the truth is out. I know the murderer, and I have someone who showed me what love truly is. I’ll have my revenge, no matter the cost. — Ava ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I’m sorry I kept the truth from you. I only claimed you because of my own selfish motives, but now, now I’m ready to make amends, and I can only do that if you give me the chance. — Russell ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ava Brunk, a low-ranking wolf in the Shadow Pack, suffers abuse and rejection, her powerful wolf dormant after a humiliating betrayal. Saved by Russell Dwayne, a ruthless werewolf and Mafia boss, she’s drawn into his quest for vengeance against her father. As secrets unravel—murder, a hidden Mafia organization, and the untapped power of her wolf tied to the Moon Goddess—Ava rises from slave to warrior, seeking justice. But trust shatters when Russell’s dark past emerges. Now, as Luna, Ava faces new threats: a returning mate and shocking revelations that could change everything. Will revenge and love collide, or tear her apart?

Vincenzo Costa and I have been in love with each other for eight years. Everyone knows that the heir of the Costa family loves me more than life itself. In order to marry me—an orphan—Vincenzo has knelt outside Costa Estate for three days and three nights. At the same time, he has received 99 whips from his father, the Don of the Costa family, which almost kills him. In the end, Don Edmondo Costa finally agrees to let Vincenzo marry me. But the catch is, Vincenzo must date Sofia Camorra, the Principessa of the Camorra family, and have an heir with her. So, Vincenzo tells me to wait for him for a little longer. I end up waiting for a very long time while watching him traveling to Sofia's villa time and again. At first, Vincenzo still takes three showers and scrubs his skin so much that it turns red. He tells me that once Sofia has given birth to the child, which allows him to fulfill the promise he has made to the Costa family, he'll whisk me far away from the violence and spend the rest of his life with me. Alas, everything has changed. Vincenzo no longer showers frequently. He constantly smells like Sofia's perfume now. He doesn't inform in advance whenever he goes on dates with Sofia. To make things worse, there's nothing but affection in his eyes whenever he looks at her. When Sofia burns up from a fever during her pregnancy, Vincenzo doesn't leave her side at all. She pretends to be gracious by telling him about how understanding she is about his situation. Because of that, Vincenzo wastes no time in admonishing me for being spoiled and pampered. Through the gap in the ward door, I can hear how close and intimate Vincenzo and Sofia are. At the same time, I notice the flash of provocation in Sofia's eyes. Vincenzo has made me wait year after year, not knowing that my biological parents have already found me. They want me to go home with them so that they can give me a real home. That's why this time, I won't be waiting for Vincenzo anymore.

Para devolverle a mi amor platónico el derecho de heredar su familia mafiosa, le di una de mis córneas. Sin embargo, cuando él recuperó la vista, mi familia prefirió que se casara con mi hermana mayor en lugar de conmigo. En mi vida pasada, intenté encontrarlo y explicarle todo, pero me rechazó. Por si fuera poco, mi familia me exilió y morí la noche de su boda con mi hermana. Y entonces, renací antes de mi exilio. Esta vez, decidí abandonar mi grupo mafioso y a mi amor platónico por voluntad propia... Pero, ¿aquel jefe mafioso despiadado? Él se derrumbó por completo.

Frente a la entrada del hospital, mientras una hemorragia me bañaba las piernas durante el embarazo, Leandro Rivera me dejó sola para llevar a casa a su clienta... la misma a quien le estaba tramitando el divorcio. No importó que suplicara con la mirada. No miró atrás. Solo se fue. Esa misma noche, en lugar de estar a mi lado, apareció en la publicación de la clienta en Facebook. «Qué suerte tener a mi gran abogado... ¿quién dijo que no hay sopa para la resaca? Oh, cierto... ¡yo sí la tengo!» No dormí en toda la noche. A la mañana siguiente, con una calma que no sentía, marqué el número de mi padre. —Papá, ya lo decidí. En tres días vuelvo a casa... a hacerme cargo de la empresa.

Era la asesina más hábil de Don Alexander y su Consigliere, pero también su esposa secreta. Durante los cinco años que duró nuestro matrimonio oculto, él nunca permitió que nuestro hijo lo llamara papá. Siempre decía que las familias enemigas nos vigilaban todo el tiempo y que mi hijo y yo éramos su única debilidad; juraba que lo hacía para protegernos. Yo le creí y lo ayudé en silencio a manejar todos los asuntos de la familia, hasta que su primer amor, Bella, regresó con un niño de cinco años. Él reservó todo un parque de diversiones para que ellos se divirtieran todo el día. Ese día era el cumpleaños de mi hijo, y él se empeñó en esperar a que su padre volviera a casa, mientras sostenía un pastel que ya se estaba derritiendo. Perdí la esperanza e hice una llamada: —Ayúdame a cancelar mi identidad y la de Leo; borra toda nuestra información. Pero cuando mi hijo y yo nos esfumamos, el poderoso Don se volvió loco y buscó por todo el mundo algún rastro nuestro...

I was trained to seduce, to deceive, and to kill if I had to. Love was never part of the mission. My body became my weapon, the one thing no man could ever truly own. I couldn't give life so I learned to use sex as a tool to take whatever I wanted. As one of O.A.S.I.S.'s top agents, I've faced warlords, dictators, and men who thought they ruled the world. None of them ever got under my skin until billionaire playboy, Zayne Beaumont, walked into my crosshairs. He's infuriatingly charming, dangerously beautiful, and the reason my pulse forgets its rhythm. But when his past comes for him in the form of Dominik D'Angelo, the ruthless Mafia Don who wants him dead, my world fractures in ways no training could prepare me for. Because Dominik doesn't just want revenge. He wants me. Now I'm trapped between two men. Both powerful, dangerous, and willing to burn the world to have me. And I'm the prize neither of them intends to lose.

My father cheated. I cut him out of my life. To get my forgiveness, my father put Lucas Moretti, the Don of New York, in my bed. I fell for Lucas, fast. He knew how to play gentle. Night after night, he’d hold me tight, fuck me like he owned me, and whisper how obsessed he was with me. Six months later, I was pregnant. I was the princess of New York's underworld. My father and Lucas gave me everything. They treated me like I was made of glass. But the day of the baby's blessing at the church? They were a no-show. My father said there was family business to handle. Then I got an anonymous link. A wedding. Live. In the video, my father, Lorenzo, was walking his mistress, Carla—the woman who killed my mother—down the aisle, a happy smile plastered on his face. And the other happy couple? My fiancé, and my father's bastard daughter, Sofia. I could hear Lucas’s voice clearly: "Well, Bella used to bully Sofia. I'm just helping her get the justice she deserves... As for Bella, it's time she was unburdened from a life she isn't built for." "I'll take over the Gallo family shares for her," he continued, "so she and our child can live without a care in the world." My father’s voice followed. "Bella’s too much like her mother—ambitious. That’s not a good thing for a woman." As my world shattered, a text from an unknown number lit up my screen: "Marry me, and the child you're carrying will be the sole heir of the Russo family."
