00:00has a savage tradition known as the claiming rooted in old honor codes and mafia control
00:05it demands the groom steal his bride away at midnight fighting through her family's guards
00:09to prove his power and write to her i waited three years for dominic at last he and his men
00:14slipped into my courtyard i was ready to run to him until i heard his hushed order grab bianca in
00:19the chaos she's fragile if she's sold off to the don of the valentino family to settle the debt
00:24she won't survive the night as for elena she'll fight like hell she'll keep herself safe the men
00:29hesitated dominic you and elena are already married if she finds out she'll burn this place to the
00:34ground let her it's dark enough the case of mistaken identity during the claiming will be easy to
00:40explain i'll calm her down later he paused his voice turning icy besides the marriage license she signed
00:47was a forgery i promised bialca a safe life in palermo she's my priority i heard every word from
00:53behind the door i didn't scream i didn't cry i just slipped back into the room they'd expected
00:59me to fight to hurt anyone who tried to take me instead i silently climbed onto the back of the
01:05man
01:06who'd broken into my chamber and became his bride elena my contact at the registry checked
01:13you you weren't actually dominic's legal wife something inside my chest shattered i'd lived as
01:19dominic's wife for five years all that time the russo family never accepted me his mother never used
01:26my name only ever referring to me as that girl at family galas i was always seated at the farthest
01:32table in official portraits i was placed at the edge so i could be easily cropped out dominic said his
01:38mother wouldn't let up until i broke so he sent me back to the meretti estate he promised he'd follow
01:43our traditions and complete the formal claiming ritual to bring me back as his donna then the
01:48russo family would have no choice but to accept me i waited for three years i'd held my tongue
01:54longing for this night but he'd come for another woman he'd kept me deceived for years with a forged
02:00marriage license all to hide the truth the one he truly meant to claim was my half-sister bianca
02:06i stared at my reflection my face was empty shouts exploded in the courtyard the ritual had begun
02:15laughter rang out boots thudded against stone and guards put on a show of resisting ritual torches
02:20painted half the sky red all the excitement was for them the celebration was for bianca the other
02:27group of men had come from the valentino family they'd originally come for bianca by the rules of the
02:32ritual if a woman didn't want to be taken she could hide and send them away empty-handed but bianca
02:37didn't hide she waited in her room to be taken and the man she waited for was my husband the
02:43room i
02:43was in wasn't mine it was bianca's that afternoon my stepmother pulled me aside for once her voice
02:49was gentle elena stay in bianca's room tonight yours is too far back too quiet they'll never find you
02:55the men coming for bianca are savages you've always been tough you can handle the rough play
03:00bianca is fragile if she gets caught in the crossfire it'll be a disaster i said nothing
03:06i knew exactly what she meant by the rules of the claiming the groom's men would storm in the woman
03:11was expected to fight and struggle it was called the gauntlet the harder she fought the more valuable
03:16she was considered the groom had to prove he could take her by force those punches and shoves were real
03:22my stepmother studied my face testing me besides dominic has never been to the meredia state at
03:27night the front room he'll find you faster back then i'd only wanted to make things easier for
03:33dominic i agreed i even texted him my room location but they'd been planning this switch all along
03:40a roar of celebration erupted outside we got her the bride is ours laughter and cheering rang out
03:46followed by the sharp crack of celebratory gunfire i listened but didn't move i knew exactly who they'd
03:52taken i could picture dominic carrying bianca through the crowd his men shielding them as guests
03:57hurled objects and blocked their path bianca would hide her face against his back pretending to struggle
04:02how perfect i lowered my gaze moments later my door was kicked in a group of men flooded into the
04:09dark
04:09room their footsteps heavy and chaotic someone seized my arm hands began shoving and striking me i felt
04:16fists slam into my shoulders and back this was the gauntlet the harder the beating the more the
04:21family valued the bride i didn't flinch or resist i let them yank me from my chair and drag me
04:27towards
04:27the door at first it felt like a formality but the violence quickly turned ugly someone slammed my arm
04:35against the stone wall
04:40fists began hammering my ribs with real cruel force this was intentional the pain was excruciating but i
04:48didn't make a sound i should have known you were tough elena i finally understood what my stepmother
04:54had meant by calling me tough just when i thought it would never end someone stepped in to shield me
05:01enough it was a stranger's voice sharp with fury he blocked the others shoving the attacker's back
05:09with his arms that's the way it works the harder we hit the more she's worth what rule his voice
05:18dropped to a dangerous growl this isn't your wife if someone was beating your woman like a dog
05:24would you just stand there and watch the room went silent he glanced back at me in the shadows i
05:32could
05:32only make out the sharp line of his jaw then he bent down and hoisted me onto his back who
05:38is he he's
05:39taking this ritual way too serious he carried me out in long steady strides people chased after us
05:45throwing things and blocking the way but his grip on my legs never wavered when he finally carried me
05:51out of my private courtyard he paused to catch his breath in the distance the faint glow of ritual
06:00torches moved that was the other group through the bushes i heard their laughter dominic was at the
06:07front sweat soaked but wearing a triumphant smile bianca was on his back her arms wrapped tight around
06:14his neck his men were cheering i lay silent on the stranger's back as they drew near
06:23torchlight flickered across my face dominic's eyes flicked over me and the two either be more me for
06:28a split second then his gaze moved on turning back to his men as he joked and laughed he didn't
06:34recognize
06:34me bianca whispered something in his ear and he leaned in with a soft smile i suddenly thought back to
06:42three years ago when i'd returned to the moretti estate to visit my father and stayed for a while
06:47the first time dominic came to find me there he'd worn that exact same smile
06:52that day my father's men put him to the test they blocked him at the gates and roughed him up
06:56just to see if a russo truly cared for a moretti girl he'd shown up at my door with a
07:01split lip and
07:01bruised ribs i asked if it hurt for my wife i'd take a lot worse he was a spoiled russo
07:08heir who'd never
07:09been hurt before yet he'd taken a beating from my father's men just for me he always acted like it
07:15was nothing but i knew the truth my father's men didn't go easy on outsiders another time it poured
07:21rain he showed up soaked to the bone his shirt torn but the pastries tucked inside his jacket were
07:28still dry i called him an idiot for coming out in weather like that didn't want you to wait too
07:34long
07:34i held those pastries staring at the cut on his cheek and thought this is the man i'll spend my
07:40life with but now he carried bianca with that exact same smile come on bianca my vision blurred for a
07:48second then sharpened again not gonna drop me are you no never are you sure are you sure when did
07:54it
07:54all start to change probably three years ago when my father died i felt completely hollow inside i'll
08:01handle it dominic canceled everything to stay at the moretti estate with me for two weeks
08:05the day he had to leave he took my hand and spoke softly elena you just got through the funeral
08:11and
08:12you look awful if my mother sees you like this she'll start on you again i don't want you putting
08:15up with that just stay here at the estate and rest you've always wanted to take over the family
08:19business right i'll go back and smooth things over at home then come get you i looked at him and
08:24nodded i was truly exhausted from the constant fighting with his mother back then i believed he was
08:29looking out for me that he didn't want me to go back and face those cold stairs only later did
08:34i
08:34realize distance doesn't create beauty it just makes it easier for him to love someone else last
08:39year when mrs russo turned 60 dominic came to bring me back the moment i stepped inside i saw my
08:45stepsister bianca she was supposed to be in palermo for work but there she was in the living room
08:50arranging fruit her movement smooth and familiar so she lived here now dominic paused while taking off
08:56his shoes and explained bianca's workplace is near our house she's staying here temporarily there
09:01wasn't a trace of guilt in his voice and i didn't push for more my stepmother had married into the
09:07moretti family long after bianca and i were grown we'd never been close over the years we'd only seen
09:12each other during holidays i couldn't quite put into words how i felt about her staying there hey sis
09:19don't worry i'm just crashing here for a bit i'll move out once i find a place i nodded but
09:24said
09:24nothing back then i never could have imagined for three years i waited alone in the empty more
09:29ready estate and all that time my little sister had been working in the russo house now watching
09:35bianca on dominic's back it all suddenly clicked i hadn't been waiting for him to bring me home at all
09:41i'd been waiting for my heart to die bianca's voice drifted closer on the wind what about elena
09:47if she finds out she'll lose it she's all bark and no bite she'll get over it after throwing a
09:52fit
09:52he paused his voice lowering it's pitch black during the claiming i just made a mistake she'll
09:58feel sorry for me before she even gets angry when she finds out i'll just smooth it over
10:04bianca laughed softly my knuckles whitened one of his men spoke up suddenly kappa what if someone
10:10else claimed elena the group fell quiet then dominic laughed you think she'd let anyone take her
10:16without a fight with that temper of hers she'll tear the place apart tonight true no way elena goes
10:21quietly feel sorry for that poor bastard wonder what he looks like now the laughter swelled i looked
10:27down that's good he must have heard everything heard them laughing about me heard how they thought
10:33i'd tear the roof off but he said nothing he just kept walking at the gate of the meretti estate
10:40we ran
10:40straight into them torchlight flickered over us luca yeah it really is you you claiming someone tonight too
10:50yeah which family
10:55a neighbor family
10:58kaso man always figured you'd stay single forever congrats
11:03dominic took a step forward i felt his gaze linger on my back that look lasted too long long enough
11:09i almost thought he'd recognized me let's go wait
11:19dominic my ankle hurts what's wrong did you twist it earlier i don't know it just aches
11:27let's go we need to get to your place before sunrise dominic didn't waste another second gonna run
11:32i'll buy you a drink next time
11:36their footsteps faded into the distance
11:43he really didn't recognize you i rested my face against his shoulder and said nothing
11:48my eyes stung his pace slowed steps gentle and steady the moon was bright the road stretched on i had
11:55no idea where he was taking me but in that moment i thought anywhere was better than going back
12:02music filled the russo estate hall the whole place buzzed with celebration wine flowed freely
12:09and couples danced to old songs this was the party after a successful claiming by tradition it would last
12:16until sunrise dominic sat at the edge of the crowd phone in hand no messages from elena that wasn't like
12:24her she never kept things bottled up if she found out i claimed the wrong woman she would have called
12:30screaming by now i already had my excuses it was pitch black don't overthink it you're the only one i
12:38want
12:39i'll wait for her to blow up over the phone and talk her down gently she'd hurl some threat and
12:45he'd
12:45smooth it over done she never stayed mad at me for long but this time no call no text no
12:52yelling
12:55capo still waiting elena don't bother signal's out here her area gets fine signal then her phone's probably
13:01dead or she didn't see it she's probably off beating someone up right now
13:07dominic stayed quiet elena had once told him i set a special ringtone for your messages don't want to miss
13:14them
13:15i'd sit out in the courtyard till midnight just waiting for you to call
13:20he didn't believe she didn't see it but he had no better explanation all right quit overthinking
13:26this is your big night your bride's waiting for you what are you doing sitting here tradition says
13:32once you've claimed her you stay with her all night finish the ritual i told beyonce this was
13:37temporary i just got her out of there i didn't plan on didn't plan on what capo this is the
13:42claiming
13:42not a game you took her you finish it otherwise you insult her whole family besides you and elena
13:48have been together for years she won't care about formalities just get through tonight dominic opened
13:53his mouth to argue what are you guys talking about dominic froze dominic i know this one's fake but
13:59can we at least finish the ritual her eyes glistening i know you love elena but can you
14:06pretend i'm your bride just tonight dominic said nothing bianca bowed her head her lashes fluttering
14:20dominic picked up his glass linking arms with bianca light danced across both their faces cheers and
14:27laughter erupted around them loud enough to rattle the walls his eyes kept straying to the dark road
14:33beyond the estate the same road he'd carried bianca down tonight at the gate he ran into lucas
14:39santoro they met years ago at a family party they had a few drinks together acquaintances at best that
14:49man had been quiet but steady the kind of man you could trust with your life tonight luca had been
14:55carrying someone too said she was from another family she was thin lying quietly on lucas back
15:00only a glimpse of her neck was visible the line of that neck the curve of her bowed head it
15:05had felt
15:06strangely familiar but bianca had cried out in pain so he hadn't thinked again dominic dominic
15:14is that okay yeah then he stepped aside pulled out his phone and dialed elena's number he needed to
15:21explain to make sure she didn't misunderstand finally someone picked up hello background noise sounds of
15:34people moving things dominic blinked let me talk to elena elena
15:45she's not here we're packing up her stuff to send over send over send where elena never lets her phone
15:54leave her hand where are you sending her things the woman hesitated not expecting the question
15:59i'm elena's aunt we have to pack her things and send to her husband's house husband's house so elena
16:06was preparing to move back in with me that made sense he'd always planned to bring her back after
16:11the claiming stop leaving her at the marathi estate alone auntie about the claiming tonight there was a
16:18bit of a mix-up did elena say anything no several families did claiming tonight what would elena have to
16:24say despite the words a sense of unease surged in him oh i can't talk anymore we're busy packing
16:30both elena and bianca were taken tonight we have to get their things ready dominic froze
16:36what did she mean both were taken didn't i only take bianca as for elena she would never go with
16:43someone she didn't love auntie you said elena was taken yes by the santori family dominic's throat
16:50tightened he couldn't speak he suddenly remembered something and his mind exploded santori luca the
16:59man he met at the gate the one carrying a girl saying she was his bride that silhouette that looked
17:05so familiar elena she didn't fight fight why would she a claiming isn't a bad thing she was as quiet
17:13as
17:13she could be she just went with him we all thought it was strange with her temper shouldn't she have
17:18beaten
17:18the man but nothing happened she just let him carry her away dominic's hand began to shake quiet as
17:24she could be just let him carry her away no that wasn't elena no that wasn't elena that wasn't the
17:34elena i knew he remembered talking to elena about claimings before she had sat on his doorstep swinging
17:40her legs speaking excitedly the girls in moretti family if they're claimed by someone they don't like
17:47they don't just let them they kick bite and scratch they fight until the man gives up himself
17:53you're so wild who would dare claim you well it depends on who's coming if it's you
18:05i just put on a show of struggling a little for appearances just a little three times at most
18:14if you came to claim me i'd probably be the first to jump on your back so you wouldn't have
18:18to take
18:18those hits this girl is so foolish auntie elena when was she taken when tonight right after you left
18:27dominic opened his mouth but not a single word came out hello dominic are you still there i'm here
18:35why are you asking so much elena's husband will take care of her you claimed bianca tonight didn't
18:41you that poor girl's had it rough take good care of her all right i have to go we're still
18:46packing elena
18:47left in such a hurry she forgot so many things we have to get them to her bye now the
18:51line went dead
18:52the dial tone rang in his ears a steady hammering sound over and over he stood at the edge of
18:59the crowd
18:59white knuckling his phone around him were songs laughter music all the noise of celebration someone
19:06walked past slapping his shoulder in congratulations someone shoved a drink into his hand tugging him
19:12toward the dance floor bianca waved at him from across the fire a soft smile on her face but he
19:17couldn't hear a thing while he'd been carrying bianca away elena had been lying on another man's back
19:23they had passed each other in the dark he thought she would fight scream resist but she did nothing
19:29capo where the hell are you going to get my wife what wife you claim bianca tonight you walk out
19:37now
19:37you insult the whole moretti family this was temporary getting bianca out of a bad situation
19:43that's it temporary capo you completed the ritual the whole palermo knows bianca's yours now you leave
19:50her tonight she's got no standing no protection bianca stood by the fire watching him eyes uncertain
19:57one night stay tonight keep up appearances tomorrow you can do whatever you want but tonight
20:05you owe bianca that much dominic clenched his fists then slowly let go he walked back to the fire
20:14where were you going nowhere bianca lowered her head not asking more that night he sat by the fire
20:22watching the flames flicker and die he watched the people come and go watched the moon rise and
20:28slowly set he called elena countless times it was always off at dawn he rose and left dominic he didn't
20:37look back he drove back to corleone the sun was just rising the hounds were baying and the morning mist
20:45was lifting from the vineyards he stopped an old groundskeeper and asked where luca's villa was
20:50the man pointed toward a newly built villa at the foot of the hill he ran over the iron gates
20:56stood
20:57open but the house was empty looking for don luca he left at dawn with his new bride said there
21:05was
21:05urgent family business and had to return dominic stood frozen in place when did they come back how
21:12should i know dominic stood before that empty house for a long time without moving he pulled out his
21:19phone and called elena again still off he scrolled through his contacts and realized he didn't even
21:27have luca's number they were never close he didn't know where luca lived what city he was in he knew
21:32nothing he only remembered last night the way elena had lain so quietly on that man's back he rushed back
21:39to
21:39the russo estate picked up bianca and headed back to palermo the whole way bianca was quiet occasionally
21:46glancing at him wanting to speak he didn't want to talk so she didn't ask but elena wasn't at their
21:53home he had failed again in the days that followed his mind was still trapped in that claiming
22:01just a little more just a little more and he could have stopped his woman from being taken
22:08dominic she no longer called him brother-in-law she held a cup of warm milk
22:14you haven't eaten much these past few days drink some milk thank you bianca didn't leave she sat
22:21beside him i need to talk to you your mother refused to let you legally marry my sister that
22:27was her condition for tolerating the relationship so you gave elena a fake certificate to make her
22:32believe you were committed then to save me from the valentino family you a registered a real marriage
22:41with me bianca lowered her head her lashes trembling you claimed me in front of the families completed
22:47the ritual made me your donna dominic since it has come to this why don't we simply be together
22:54dominic froze what did you say do you dare say you don't truly like me you legally married me you
23:03completed the claiming ritual you made me your donna you say it was to save me from valentino but
23:10you never had to go that far just admit it you like me as for elena she's just not right
23:19for you
23:19all she cares about is her dad's business she never even thinks about helping you with your work or
23:24fitting in with your crowd what's she even gonna give you but i'm different i know what you want and
23:30i know how to make your mom happy i can give you way more than she ever could dominic looked
23:36into
23:36those eyes that were nothing like elena's elena's eyes were bright like stars in the mountains no
23:42secrets no pretense happy was happy sad was sad plain and simple but bianca's eyes were soft like a
23:49pool of water that could pull you under before you even realized it he suddenly asked himself back when
23:55he'd go to the meretti estate bringing things for elena did he always bring a little something for
24:00bianca too and later when bianca said her sister got the family business she had to find work was it
24:07just because he felt sorry for how fragile she seemed that he let her move into his home he wasn't
24:12sure
24:13anymore was that casual kindness he'd shown her over the past three years really just a coincidence and
24:19when he saw bianca smile was that feeling in his chest really just the affection of a brother he
24:24didn't know when it started or perhaps he always knew but refused to admit it he only knew one thing
24:30for certain elena was the one he was supposed to marry the wife he chose the girl he was willing
24:35to
24:35give up everything dominic snapped back looking at her but thinking of elena thinking of her lying on
24:42that man's back thinking of how she hadn't said a word thinking of how she hadn't even bothered to
24:47struggle his heart felt as if a piece had been savagely carved out so the mistaken identity he
24:53thought no one knew elena had seen it all so she walked away in the other direction
25:00not long after his mother arrived walked in already lecturing since you and bianca are registered just
25:06live your lives why are you constantly thinking about that woman who ran off with another man and hasn't
25:13even come home dominic knew she would say this in these three years bianca had charmed her well she
25:18made her almost forget who it was that used to be insulted in the kitchen who worked until midnight
25:23without a word of thanks bianca knew how to act cute how to speak softly how to buy expensive gifts
25:29to
25:29make her smile and elena elena didn't know these things elena only knew how to work hard how to be
25:37good
25:41mother elena elena didn't run off if that isn't running off what is she was claimed claiming our
25:49normal out there if she had you in her heart why hasn't she come back because i have no right
25:54to ask
25:54her to his mother froze back then you said the only condition for accepting her was not registering the
26:02marriage so the contract i had with her was fake from beginning to end she was never truly my wife
26:10since she isn't back i have no standing to look for her if she wants to marry someone else
26:16his throat tightened i don't even have the right to object then who do you blame i did interfere with
26:23the registration but the rest was your choice if you didn't like bianca why did you claim her
26:28why did you register with her dominic's throat choked he couldn't explain bianca was to help her
26:34leave registering was for her status but saying those things now felt pathetic even to him by helping
26:41her he had lost himself i'm telling you everyone in the family knows about you and bianca you legally
26:48married that girl you claimed her in front of the families you made her your donna and now you want
26:54to discard her what does that say about the russo family we're divorced what we divorced two months
27:04ago i couldn't live with her then what do you want to do now what did he want he wanted
27:11to laugh he
27:12wanted to find elena but with what he didn't even know if she still hated him he didn't even have
27:17the
27:17chance to use a divorce to force her to see him three years later you're either locked in the moretti
27:22estate or driving across sicily chasing a ghost get out for once dominic every family sends someone
27:28tonight you should show your face the hall was crowded with the elite of the most powerful syndicates
27:35dominic wandered through it aimlessly eyes passing over each face and moving on
27:40three years he thought sometimes after her father died she had nobody left maybe that's why she never
27:46went back to moretti estate she'd had him once but what had he done with that he'd made her wait
27:51three
27:51years then carried another woman out right in front of her what had he actually given her a fake
27:56marriage license empty words three years of his mother's contempt he'd watched every bit of it and
28:03never once stepped in front of it and in the end on what should have been the best night of
28:08her life
28:09he walked away from her for good was she somewhere doing well now had she already forgotten him
28:21dominic isn't that elena the man was in a black shirt focused unhurried the woman beside him
28:30she was speaking to someone and her eyes curved into a smile that was the person he'd been looking for
28:36for
28:36three years standing right there close enough to see elena
28:55hello what can i help you with elena it's me she looked at him the way you look at someone
29:02you have
29:02recognized i'm sorry do we know each me i'm terrible with faces she looked at him again more
29:07carefully mr russo it's been a while she genuinely hadn't recognized him three years dominic was
29:16gaunt and weathered no longer the handsome dashing man he had once been luca looked up then and glanced
29:22at him he said nothing simply stepping closer to elena's side it was a natural protective stance you
29:29too are you are you truly truly together elena turned slightly to look at luca that look was soft
29:37certain and natural mr russo let me introduce you this is my wife during the claiming you met her
29:45remember wife that's how can that count that was a mistake a blunder it was dark and i claimed the
29:52wrong
29:52person claimed the wrong person mr russo in our tradition a claiming isn't a kidnapping it's a
29:58silent agreement between families if the girl doesn't want it can she be taken
30:04if she truly didn't want to go she would have beat me until my own mother didn't recognize me
30:12the words were a knife in dominic's chest he remembered what elena had said
30:17if it's someone i don't like i'll fight until he don't recognize himself but the truth was she
30:23had lain quietly on luca's back without a single sound he stood there watching elena turn her head
30:29to meet the other man's gaze if you're here on russo business i can point you to the right people
30:33if not you're in the way elena listen to me listen to what listen to you say the marriage was
30:41fake
30:41listen to you tell me about your plan to swap brides so the fragile bianca wouldn't suffer
30:44you you heard all that mr russo meeting today is fate but it doesn't mean you can harass my wife
30:55luca she's my wife luca said nothing only looked down at elena he had explained this to his wife
31:03before that night he had followed the crew to the maradi estate but not for himself his cousin had
31:10wanted bianca and dragged him along for support he couldn't refuse so he went but at the edge of the
31:17estate the cousins suddenly clutched clutched his stomach his face pale i can't i can't that wine at
31:25lunch was bad i need a place he waved him off you go ahead find bianca and hide her actually
31:30she doesn't
31:31like me i just wanted to try if she'd accept me if she won't we'll just leave don't let her
31:36suffer
31:37with that he vanished into the trees luca stood in the darkness feeling ridiculous he came to help with
31:45a claiming and the groom had run off he stood there not knowing whether to stay or go later he
31:55went in
31:56not to claim anyone but to find bianca
32:05and tell her to hide
32:08luca said nothing only looked down at elena he had explained this to his wife before that night he had
32:15followed the crew to the maradi estate but not for himself his cousin had wanted bianca and dragged
32:20him along for support he couldn't refuse so he went i can't i can't that wine at lunch was bad
32:26i
32:26need a place he waved him off you go ahead find bianca and hide her actually she doesn't like me
32:30i
32:30just wanted to try if she'd accept me if she won't we'll just leave don't let her suffer with that
32:35he
32:35vanished in the darkness feeling ridiculous he came to help with a claiming and the groom had run off he
32:40stood there not knowing whether to stay or go later he went in not to claim anyone but to find
32:48bianca
32:49and tell her to hide then another crew poured through the door and started throwing their
32:53weight around first it was the motions then it started being rude she didn't move didn't fight
33:00back just sat there and took it he couldn't watch it he walked over crouched down in front of her
33:06do you want to leave she looked at him and her eyes turned home but she didn't crew she simply
33:14nended and climbed onto his back perhaps that was fate if his cousin hadn't had a stomach ache
33:21perhaps in her despair she really would have gone with or perhaps after they found the mistake they
33:26would have parted ways peacefully treated the night as a blunder but there are no ifs he and elena decided
33:31to give each other a chance so they made the claiming real and so they found their current happiness elena
33:37suddenly called his name her voice soft didn't you get your wish and claim bianca
33:43dominic's throat choked i bianca he and bianca had divorced long ago but what point was there in
33:51saying that now elena i claimed the wrong one that night i was supposed to claim you i thought you'd
33:57fight i thought you'd i never imagined bianca kind i'll give bianca back to you i'll give everything
34:02back to you give elena back to me elena smiled a light faint smile dominic acclaiming isn't a game
34:08in our traditions a mistake is the will of heaven heaven willed me to go with him so i went
34:13heaven
34:14willed me to go with him so i went you claimed bianca and i married luca we're even dominic stood
34:22there shaking he saw luca gently put an arm around her shoulder he wanted to chase them but he couldn't
34:28move in the crowd elena's back grew further and further away the rain came suddenly and the crowd
34:34began to disperse dominic still stood there in the rain he suddenly remembered the summer years ago
34:40when he went to find elena you fool i was afraid you'd be waiting then eyes brights like shanton stars
34:47dominic i'll wait for you okay he'd made her wait for three years in the rain he suddenly laughed and
34:55he
34:55couldn't tell the rain
