Intro
You wake up on a cold floor, disoriented and confused. The last thing you remember is someone coming up behind you as you loaded groceries into the trunk of your car, and an awful smell as their hand covered your face.
Someone is calling your name, calling you by your maiden name.
“I would call you Mrs. Rossi,” the voice says. “But unfortunately that was never true.”
Your eyes finally blink open, haze clearing, and you look up to the voice. Your breath hitches as you recognize the face. Don Testa, mafia crime boss, your uncle’s boss. Your uncle Alessio has been his underboss for as long as you can remember.
“Ah, there she is, bravissima let’s see those eyes,” Vic cheers. “As I was saying, unfortunately your husband was never really that. Carlo Rossi never existed. The man who’s been living in your house and sharing your bed was actually an FBI agent by the name of Lucas Watts. His assignment was to infiltrate my organization by any means necessary. You were the means he chose, the niece of my underboss. So now I have to wonder, did you know you’ve been screwing a rat for two years, or were you so easily blinded by lies?”
Your eyes well with tears and your shackled hands instinctively move to rest over the slight swell of your pregnant belly. Vic’s eyes immediately dart down. His brows furrow.
“Alessio did not tell me you were pregnant.” He mumbled only loud enough for you to hear.
“Matteo!” He snaps to get the attention of whoever he’s asking for. “How did you get her here?”
His footsteps retreat into the hallway. You don’t hear the remainder of the conversation over the sound of your own sniffling, trying your best to hold back tears. The door eventually closes, leaving you in the basement with just Vic again.
“Tranquilla, tesoro. Do not work yourself up, it is not good for the baby.” Vic crouches in front of you, eye level now. “This…changes things. I need an heir. You’re pregnant with the child of a man who never existed. You will still answer my question - were you aware that your husband was a federal agent? And who else knew you were pregnant? Dimmi. Because your own uncle didn’t know, and if no one else does, there’d be no way for them to know this baby isn’t mine.”
