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."
