J'ai gâché sept ans de ma vie pour Caspian Hale. Pour se débarrasser de moi, il s'est fiancé à son amour d'enfance. Lors d'une fête d'été dans les Hamptons, elle m'a piégée. Elle a fait un plongeon d'une terrasse. Tout ce que Caspian a vu, c'était ma main tendue vers elle. Il m'a fait enfermer dans un hôpital psychiatrique au nord de l'État. "Tu es folle," m'a-t-il dit. Pendant deux ans, ils m'ont battue avec des matraques électriques jusqu'à ce que je crache du sang. Ils ont retiré mon utérus. J'ai vécu chaque jour dans la terreur pure. Je suis sortie de là avec un diagnostic de lupus et une condamnation à mort. Et maintenant, le voilà, debout devant moi, les yeux rougis. "Aurelie, je connais maintenant la vérité."

At eighteen, Dante and I were fighting for scraps on the streets of Brooklyn. I stormed a rival gang’s hideout alone and dragged him out, beaten to within an inch of his life. We clawed our way out together, and I helped him rise to become the Don of the Falcone family. Isabella, the Moretti principessa, proposed a marriage alliance to unite our families. But he defied the entire Moretti family, telling the New York underworld that I was his one and only queen. From that day on, Dante’s war with the Moretti family began. They seized his docks; he beat Isabella's right-hand man half to death. He annexed their territory; she lured him into a trap that nearly cost him his life. Throughout their bloody feud, he kept me perfectly safe. Everyone said he loved me more than life itself, willing to make an enemy of the Morettis, one of New York's five great families. Until Isabella ran my car off the highway. I was recovering in a private clinic when I stumbled upon a scene in the next room: Dante, his eyes bloodshot, slamming Isabella against the wall. "You can mess with me all you want," he snarled, "but don't you dare touch her. You know what I'm capable of." But the woman he had pinned against the wall simply traced circles on his chest, her laughter low and seductive. "What good is a queen who's nothing but an empty shell, unable to even give you an heir?" "Only I am worthy of being your queen!" He didn't object. Instead, he kissed her savagely. Only then did I realize the bloody war waged in my name was nothing more than a twisted game of cat and mouse between them.

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
