Married to the Don? No, Thanks
Synopsis
"Seven years after getting engaged to Leander Beaumont, he inherits everything that once belonged to his late brother—including his brother's wife, Dinah Fowler.Every time Leander sleeps with Dinah, he holds me afterward and whispers, "Jenny, just wait a little longer. We can finally have our wedding once Dinah gets pregnant."It's the only condition the Beaumont family, Westrael’s most powerful mafia clan, sets for Leander to become the next Don.In just half a year after returning home, Leander visits Dinah's room 59 times. He starts from once a month... to nearly every single day.Finally, after the 60th time I watch him leave Dinah's room, the "good news" comes. Dinah is pregnant.And along with it, an announcement—the Beaumont family declares Leander and Dinah are getting married."Mamma, is someone getting married?" my young son asks, staring at the house now lavishly decorated by a wedding company.I quietly gather him into my arms, my voice cold as I say, "Yes, sweetheart. Your father is marrying the woman he loves. It's time for us to leave."What Leander doesn't know is that the Bellini family, my family, has risen to become a mafia power strong enough to rival the Beaumonts.And me? I'm Jenny Bellini, the most beloved daughter of the Bellini family. I will never be trapped by marriage again."
