I Was Mistaken for a Mistress, My Mafia Brothers Unleashed Their Wrath
Colton and I were the two most notorious good-for-nothings in the Sicilian mafia.
My oldest brother, Dominic, was the Don of the Turner Family. My other brother, Luca, laundered money for the entire operation. That made me the Family princess who did nothing but max out my brothers' credit cards.
Colton had been frail since birth. His hands shook whenever he held a gun. But his oldest sister, Serena, ran several arms routes in the south, and his other sister, Natalia, commanded one of the world's top assassin teams.
One day at the racetrack, the four of them got to talking.
"Since none of us can stop worrying about the little ones, why not put them together? Easier to keep an eye on both."
Just like that, Colton and I got married.
We were moved into the Family estate, and life was peaceful and easy.
That peace lasted until it was time for me to go abroad with Colton for his long-term treatment.
The night before we left, our brothers and sisters threw us a farewell banquet so we could make our formal debut before the Family.
At the banquet, Beth, the daughter of the Garry Family, insisted I was the mistress her husband kept on the side.
"I don't know your husband, and I'm definitely not his mistress. My husband is right over there." I pointed him out to her.
Colton was stuffing cake into his mouth, his hands already starting to tremble.
Beth burst out laughing. "You think pointing at some idiot will fool anyone? I've seen plenty of women like you!"
She shoved me hard.
I crashed into the champagne tower, knocking it over. Glass shattered across the floor, and the deafening noise drew a crowd.
A jagged shard sliced a deep gash into my leg.
Blood poured out.
Colton panicked when he saw what happened. He rushed forward, shoved Beth aside, and was ready to fight.
Beth was furious. "So he really is an idiot. Throw them both into the sea."
I fought with everything I had and managed to dial Dominic.
My voice shook. "Dominic, someone's trying to kill me."
They had no idea wha
