The moment I saw my husband massaging his dead brother's pregnant mistress's feet, I knew my marriage was over. He moved her into our home under the guise of "family duty," forcing me to watch as he prioritized her comfort over our vows. The final betrayal came when she stole and deliberately broke my mother's priceless necklace. When I slapped her for the desecration, my husband struck me across the face to defend her. He had violated a sacred honor code by putting his hands on the daughter of another Don-an act of war. I looked him in the eye and swore on my mother's grave that I would bring a bloody revenge upon his entire family. Then I made one phone call to my father, and the demolition of his empire began.

Chapter 1

Alessia POV:

The moment I saw my husband massaging his dead brother's pregnant mistress's feet, I knew my marriage was over, and his life was about to be.

It had been a month since Marco, Santino's Capo and closest thing to a brother, was buried. A heavy, silent grief had settled over the Moretti estate, a ghost in every hallway. Santino wore it like a second skin, a layer of ice over his already cold demeanor. He was the Don of the Moretti family, a man whose power stretched across the city, built on fear and a reputation for ruthless efficiency. Grief didn't make him soft; it made him harder, more distant.

Then Valentina Rossi arrived.

She appeared on our doorstep with a small suitcase and a belly just starting to swell. She claimed the baby was Marco's. A final piece of him left on this earth.

Santino didn't question it. He simply announced she would be living with us.

"It's a family responsibility," he'd said, his voice flat, his dark eyes giving nothing away. He stood in our sprawling, sterile living room, a king in his castle, making decrees.

My father, Don Marcello Bianchi, had been there. He'd raised a single, questioning eyebrow, a subtle disapproval that Santino either missed or chose to ignore. My own protest died in my throat.

"She needs protection, Alessia. She's carrying a Moretti."

My voice was a small thing when I finally found it. "Protection is one thing, Santino. Having her live here, in our home..."

He cut me off. "This is for family unity. The discussion is over."

And just like that, my status as his wife, the Don's wife, was diminished. I was a fixture, a part of the architecture, but not a partner.

Valentina's invasion was subtle at first. A masterclass in quiet manipulation. She was a ghost in silk robes, always seeming to be in the right place at the wrong time.

A few days after she moved in, I saw it. Santino came out of the master bathroom, a towel slung low on his hips, water dripping from his black hair onto the marble floor. Valentina was standing right there, holding out a fresh, fluffy towel.

"I just thought you might need this," she'd murmured, her eyes cast down.

A spike of unease went through me. It was an intimate, domestic gesture. A wife's gesture.

Then came the nightmares.

She'd knock on our bedroom door late at night, her voice trembling. "I'm so sorry to bother you, Alessia, Santino. I just... I had a dream about Marco."

Santino would get up without a word, his body a solid wall of muscle moving through the darkness, and go to her. He would be gone for hours, leaving me alone in our cold, king-sized bed.

My good-girl facade, the one I had carefully constructed for four years of marriage to the most powerful man in the city, began to crack. I had given up my art, my friends, my vibrant wardrobe of reds and golds, all to become the perfect, demure Mafia wife. I had erased myself for him.

The final piece of that facade shattered tonight.

I heard low voices coming from the kitchen. I walked silently, my bare feet cold on the stone floor. The scene that met my eyes stopped my heart.

Valentina was sitting on a chair, her foot propped on Santino's knee. He was kneading the arch of her foot, his large, strong hands moving with a gentleness I hadn't felt in years. Her head was tilted back, a soft, satisfied sigh escaping her lips.

It was the ultimate betrayal. Not sex. Not a secret affair. It was this. This public, tender act of service in my own home. It was a declaration that she had taken my place.

The shame was a physical thing, hot and suffocating. It was a dishonor to me, and by extension, a deep dishonor to my family. The Bianchi name.

I backed away, my movements soundless, and went to the family office. I pulled out the encrypted phone I kept for emergencies. My fingers were shaking as I dialed my father's private number.

He answered on the first ring. "Alessia?"

I couldn't speak past the lump in my throat. I just made a small, broken sound.

"What has he done?" Don Marcello Bianchi's voice was suddenly quiet, lethally calm. He knew. Of course, he knew.

"He has brought deep shame to our family, Father," I whispered, the words tasting like ash. "I need your power. Your absolute power."

There was a pause. I could picture him in his own office, a lion in his den, the wheels of vengeance already turning. "The Bianchi family stands with you, my daughter. Always. We will launch a bloody revenge on Santino Moretti's legitimate facade. He will see it all burn to the ground."

A cold resolve washed over me, extinguishing the shame. I was no longer a good girl. I was a rose, and my thorns were finally showing.

I hung up, went back upstairs, and slept in the guest room.

The next morning, I walked into the kitchen. Valentina was there, wearing one of Santino's white button-down shirts, the fabric hanging loosely off her shoulders. It was another claim, another piece of my life she was trying to steal.

I walked right up to her, my eyes locked on hers.

"Take it off," I said, my voice as cold and hard as a diamond. "Now."

I found the document by accident. Aiden was away, and I was looking for my mother' s old earrings in the safe when my fingers brushed against a thick, unfamiliar file folder. It wasn't mine. It was the "Herrera Family Trust," and the primary beneficiary of Aiden' s massive fortune wasn't me, his wife of seven years. It was a five-year-old boy named Leo Herrera, and his legal guardian, listed as the secondary beneficiary, was Haven Herrera-my adopted sister-in-law. My family lawyer confirmed it an hour later. It was real. Ironclad. Established five years ago. The phone slipped from my hand. A cold numbness spread through me. Seven years. I had spent seven years justifying Aiden's madness, his rages, his possessiveness, believing it was a twisted part of his love. I stumbled through the cold, silent mansion to the east wing, drawn by the sound of laughter. Through the glass doors, I saw them: Aiden, bouncing Leo on his knee, Haven beside him, her head resting on his shoulder. And with them, smiling and cooing at the child, were Aiden's parents. My in-laws. They were a perfect family. "Aiden, the final transfer of the Knox assets into Leo' s trust is complete," his father said, raising a glass of champagne. "It's all airtight now." "Good," Aiden replied, his voice calm. "Charlotte's family money should have always belonged to a true Herrera heir." My inheritance. My family's legacy. Transferred to his secret son. My own money, used to secure the future of his betrayal. They had all known. They had all conspired. His rage, his paranoia, his sickness-it wasn't for everyone. It was a special hell he had reserved just for me. I backed away from the door, my body cold as ice. I ran back to our bedroom, the one we had shared for seven years, and locked the door. I looked at my reflection, at the ghost of the woman I used to be. A quiet vow formed on my lips, silent but absolute. "Aiden Herrera," I whispered to the empty room. "I will never see you again."

On the giant screen in Times Square, Chloe Davis, radiant in red, slammed the gavel, and "Davis Innovations" exploded in green numbers. I stood in the crowd, a ghost she couldn't see, having spent seven years in her shadow, building her dream, waiting for the promise she' d made: "It will be you and me, Alex." Then, a reporter' s question boomed from the speakers: "Rumors of an engagement?" Chloe' s smile widened, one I knew for magazine covers, never reaching her eyes. "The rumors are true," she said, her voice smooth as glass. "I'm engaged to Ethan Hayes. He's my rock." My world dissolved. I walked away, calling her back later. "Don't be difficult," she said. "I was going to tell you." When I arrived at the sterile penthouse, she walked in with Ethan Hayes. "I made that soup for him," she whispered, pointing to the stove. "His stomach is sensitive. You're a survivor, Alex. You'll be fine without me. But he… he only has me." Then the final blow: "I need you to move out. I'll have a check cut for you. For your… contribution." "What else would it be about?" she asked, genuinely confused when I laughed, crumbling the five-million-dollar check she offered as payment for seven years of my life. She thought everything had a price. As she fielded a call about flower orders, Ethan flashed a flicker of triumph, a cold calculation that revealed the "fragile" boy was a predator who had won. But I finally saw the omega symbol on Ethan's collar – my symbol. The one from the necklace she wore, then gave to him. The rage solidified into something colder. "Keep your money, Chloe," I said, letting the check fall. "But there is something of mine I want back."

My Brother, My Vendetta

My Brother, My Vendetta

I remember the Orlando theme park vividly, a chaotic backdrop to the day I, Sarah, believed I saved my younger brother, Kevin, from a suspicious beat-up van and the men within. For twenty-two agonizing years that followed, he systematically dismantled my happiness, turning my very existence into a meticulously crafted hell, blaming me for every one of his pathetic failures and wasted life choices. On my fortieth birthday, as celebratory champagne turned to deadly poison in my throat, Kevin leaned close, his eyes glinting with pure, unadulterated triumph, whispering, "You should have let me go, Sarah; this is all your fault." That agonizing betrayal, that final, calculated act of malice, consumed me entirely as darkness quickly enveloped my world, stealing my breath and my future. I died, drowning in his insidious lies and my own complete helplessness, forever haunted by his chilling words, believing my life was ultimately a tragic, unending consequence of his twisted vendetta. Then, with a jarring jolt, I was miraculously back in that exact moment, the searing Florida sun oppressive, the cheerful theme park music grating, fully transported to the very nightmare where my torment began. There he was again, my sixteen-year-old brother Kevin, a familiar cocky smirk adorning his young face, confidently heading straight for the same beat-up van and its sinister occupants. This time, no frantic screams of warning tore from my throat; no desperate rush to interfere compelled my feet forward, no instinct to rescue him remained. A chilling stillness settled deep within my core, an immediate echo of the grave he' d prepared for me, as I consciously embraced a profoundly different path. I watched him climb into the decrepit van, watched its door slam shut on his ignorant bliss, and understood with absolute clarity that my second chance was not for any kind of salvation, but for a justice far colder and more absolute than I ever conceived.
