One immigration application ended my marriage—and erased me from my husband’s world forever. I was Arabella Ashford—the wife of the man everyone wanted to marry. An Italian mafia heir—born into power, wealth, and fear. A bloodline successor watched by international law enforcement, forbidden to cross borders, permanently barred from U.S. territory. They said he adored me—built me a private estate so I’d never hear the city, sent me flowers for no reason, remembered every little thing I liked, every habit and quirk. No one saw the truth. And while the world called him perfect—he was putting another woman in my place, and another life in her womb. So I made my choice. I filed for permanent residency overseas. With that one signature, I erased myself from his world. From that moment on, he would never find me again. This was the price of his betrayal. He didn’t realize I was losing him that day. When he discovered the woman he betrayed was already beyond his reach, that was when he lost everything. He gave up his position. Walked away from his inheritance. Turned his back on a throne men would kill for—all to cross an ocean he was never allowed to enter.

Three years ago, my husband, Dimitri, and our five-year-old son, Leo, were kidnapped. By the time I reached the scene, their car was already a pillar of fire. Then it exploded.

Then I found them alive.
Dimitri, Leo, and Francesca were celebrating a little girl's birthday with our family and friends. They had never died. They had simply erased me from their lives.

But when I refused to stay silent, my family framed me as a traitor and cost me everything.

All of New York knew that Caspian Solis, the Don of the Solis family, worshipped the ground I walked on. Then an ambush left him with amnesia. Not only did he forget me and our twenty years together, but he also mistook his secretary, Ivy, for the love of his life. He tossed our matching bracelets and stared at me with dead eyes. "You are not my type. Ivy is the woman I love." My heart shattered. I tried everything to help him remember. Until I overheard a conversation between him and his right-hand man: "Don, how long are you going to keep this up? What if your wife finds out you are faking the amnesia?" Caspian exhaled a cloud of cigar smoke, completely unbothered. "She won't." "I just want to have some fun while I am young. Eating the same meal every day gets stale, doesn't it?" "When I have had my fill, I will tell her my memory came back. After all, Lorelai is the one I truly love." Standing outside the door, I felt violently sick. A thought sparked in my mind: If Caspian could fake amnesia to play me, why couldn't I? So, I accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. When I woke up, I locked eyes with Caspian's ally and biggest rival—Zane, the most feared Don in New York. I smiled and threw myself into his arms. "There you are, darling."
