Too Late, Don Luca

Too Late, Don Luca Plot

Three days before my due date, my husband came home and told me he was marrying Bianca Voss.
“Her baby is due any day now,” Luca said. “If I marry her, I get the Don’s seat.”
I stood there carrying his child and asked, “So you want me to spend the rest of my life as your hidden mistress?
He promised me doctors, guards, money, and a guarded house outside Chicago. He said I would still be his wife in private, as long as I never appeared in front of Bianca.
When I refused, he looked at me with pity, as if I was too ordinary to understand the world he truly came from.
He thought I was just Aria, the quiet woman who grew tomatoes by the lake.
He had no idea I was Aria Castellano, the only daughter of the Chairman of the High Mafia Commission.
I looked at him and whispered, “What if I told you Bianca’s family was nothing compared to mine?”
