Invalid Pact, Irresistible Pull
My marriage to Tommaso Volpe, Don of the Volpe family, is part of a five-year contract. We each have someone we love, and we stay out of each other's way.
He loves his adopted sister, Gelsomina Volpe, who needs his protection. My heart belongs only to my deceased fiancé, Marco Damiano.
For five years, I play the perfect Signora Volpe, enduring Gelsomina's provocations and cruelty again and again.
She forces caustic substances down my throat that nearly destroy my esophagus. He tells me to let it go for his sake.
She stages her own kidnapping and forces Tommaso to choose between saving her and me. He doesn't hesitate, choosing to save her while I sink to the bottom of that freezing lake.
