AmusantTranscription
00:30He thinks this will break me, how wrong he is.
00:32I'll make him watch as I marry his arch-rival and take every last thing he owns.
00:36He'll be utterly helpless, exactly the way I am right now.
00:40I'd f*** that woman seven times all night.
00:42I needed to catch up on sleep to have enough energy for the wedding.
00:45So he actually bailed on picking me up.
00:49He was so sure I'd come on my own.
00:52Baby, you finally made it.
00:54He walked toward me and gave me a light kiss on the lips.
00:56He stared at me in my wedding dress like I was nothing but a trophy.
01:00The media let out a soft, knowing laugh.
01:02His second-in-command, Rocco, leaned in and lowered his voice.
01:06Boss, making her watch you with another woman.
01:08And she still shows up today smiling in a wedding dress.
01:11Any other woman would have lost her mind.
01:13His voice full of pride.
01:15Of course she does.
01:15Nico pulled me tighter.
01:17She's been with me for ten years.
01:18What hasn't she seen?
01:19I listened and I kept smiling.
01:20Everyone here knew how much money I'd laundered for him over the last ten years.
01:24How many messes I'd cleaned up.
01:26My hands weren't clean, like he said.
01:28Who else would have me?
01:30Just then, his private phone rang.
01:35What's wrong?
01:36Didn't I tell you to call later?
01:37A sweet, girlish voice came through the phone.
01:40Nico, I'm flying to Paris this afternoon.
01:42I made an appointment at City Halls in ten minutes.
01:45Can you come?
01:45I want to have the certificate before I go.
01:47He hung up.
01:48Rocco leaned in.
01:48Boss?
01:50Who was that?
01:51Isla.
01:52She's flying to Paris.
01:54Insisted on getting the marriage license before she leaves.
01:58You know how that little princess gets.
01:59Rocco raised an eyebrow.
02:00What about the wedding?
02:03What about it?
02:04Nico waved it off.
02:05The ceremony will take an hour or two.
02:06I'll just swing by City Hall.
02:08It's a ten minute thing.
02:09If I don't keep her happy, she'll throw a tantrum at the airport.
02:11Rocco knew better than to argue.
02:13Nico walked back to me.
02:14Put an arm around my shoulder.
02:15And motioned to a photographer.
02:17Here, get a picture of us.
02:18for the memories.
02:19Be good.
02:20I gotta go or I'll be late for the registry.
02:22You wait for me.
02:22A cold wind blew.
02:23I felt clearer than I had in years.
02:26Nico Bolani!
02:27If you walk out that door today,
02:30I'm replacing the groom.
02:35Nico stopped in his tracks.
02:36He turned around slowly.
02:37The careless look on his face turned into an amused one.
02:40He looked at me like a man watching a child throw a tantrum.
02:43Replacing the groom?
02:44He walked back, his voice dripping with mockery.
02:46Serafina, what do you think this is?
02:48Some cheap soap ropa?
02:50The reporters around us sensed something.
02:52Their camera lenses quietly turned toward us.
02:55Nico came to a stop in front of me,
02:56his hand reaching up to stroke my cheek.
02:58Baby, don't make a scene.
03:00Who would you replace me with?
03:01In this entire city, what man would dare touch my woman?
03:04He opened his car door,
03:05throwing a final teasing line over his shoulder.
03:08Of course,
03:09if you actually manage to find a man who will touch you,
03:11maybe I'll let you have your fun.
03:15I told you,
03:16you're the only official Donna.
03:18Stop messing around.
03:19Those little strays on the outside,
03:21I'm just playing, okay?
03:22Rocco walked over,
03:23trying to reason with him in a low voice.
03:25Boss, maybe you should make Elsa wait.
03:26It's your big day with the Donna.
03:28Nico waved him off.
03:28That little princess is more of a handful.
03:30Her?
03:31She's not going anywhere.
03:33She has nowhere else to go.
03:34He pointed at me,
03:35his tone one of absolute certainty.
03:37And with that,
03:37he turned and left for real.
03:39I stood there,
03:39the hem of my wedding dress catching the cold wind.
03:42The photographer beside me held his camera,
03:44awkwardly unsure of what to do.
03:45No one said a word.
03:46I looked down at my left hand.
03:47The ring finger was there.
03:48Last night,
03:49I left the engagement ring on the hotel coffee table,
03:51right next to that woman's scattered lingerie.
03:56A slow smile spread across my face.
03:59Nico,
03:59if you're in such a hurry
04:00to register your marriage with another woman,
04:02then go.
04:02Let's go inside,
04:03I said,
04:04turning toward the church.
04:05Donna?
04:05Rocco was stunned.
04:06The wedding is about to start,
04:07isn't it?
04:08I look back at him.
04:09Or do you want to keep over 300 of New York's
04:11most important people waiting outside?
04:14The church was packed.
04:15The elite of New York high society were all here.
04:18Politicians,
04:19business magnates,
04:20art collectors,
04:21and representatives from every family.
04:24Everyone was waiting for the wedding of the century.
04:26The wedding march began to play its solemn tune.
04:29Everything was perfect,
04:30except the groom was missing.
04:31I heard Rocco and the others shuffling behind me.
04:33They had no idea what to do,
04:34just forced smiles onto their faces.
04:36Donna,
04:37the boss just had some family business to handle.
04:40He'll be right back.
04:41Why don't you sit for a bit?
04:42Another one,
04:43Marco tried to play it off.
04:44Yeah,
04:44yeah,
04:45the boss knows what he's doing.
04:46It's your wedding day.
04:47He won't be late.
04:47The boss was willing to throw this wedding for you.
04:50He's not going to let a few hundred million go to waste.
04:53They all chimed in,
04:53like he just stepped out for a cup of coffee.
04:55I glanced at the antique clock at the front of the church.
04:5810.40.
05:00Fine.
05:01I'll wait for him.
05:02Rocco let out a visible sigh of relief
05:04and quickly ordered someone to bring me champagne.
05:07So I'll wait.
05:08But it won't be for him.
05:12The waiting room was silent except for the ticking of the clock.
05:15I looked around,
05:16taking in every detail.
05:17The waterfall of white roses by the window.
05:19The crystal curtains hanging from the dome.
05:21Even the font on the guest cards was custom,
05:23designed by the best in Europe,
05:24on his orders.
05:25That was Nico when he did something.
05:27He did it to the extreme.
05:28It was true when he pursued me.
05:30And it was true for this wedding.
05:31He made this wedding the talk of the town.
05:33The dream of every woman.
05:34And he made his cheating justice extreme.
05:36No room for doubt.
05:37No explanations.
05:38In his world,
05:39he could give you everything.
05:40And still drag you to hell.
05:42The two weren't separate.
05:43And my only option was to accept.
05:45The door to the dressing room burst open.
05:47Serafina!
05:48My best friend, Chloe,
05:49stormed in just then.
05:50It's your wedding day!
05:52Has he lost his mind?
05:54He's running off to get a marriage license with another woman?
05:58My phone buzzed.
05:59A notification from Instagram.
06:00I opened it.
06:01A new post from Isla.
06:03The photo showed clothes scattered on a luxurious bedspread.
06:05A man's white shirt.
06:06A woman's lace panties.
06:08And a magnificent wedding dress.
06:10An identical custom-made gown to the one I was wearing.
06:12But that dress was covered in white stains.
06:14I knew exactly what they were.
06:16He only did it seven times last night.
06:17You couldn't hold back this morning.
06:19Isla's caption was pure provocation.
06:21Someone said he'd only be ten minutes,
06:23but now he won't leave.
06:25Says,
06:26I'm his favorite toy,
06:28and he can't get enough of me.
06:30The location tag wasn't City Hall.
06:31It was Nico's private estate.
06:33What?
06:33That b****!
06:34She tried to grab my phone,
06:36but I stopped her.
06:36Calm down.
06:37Calm down?!
06:38Serafina, did you see what she posted?
06:40That whore is humiliating you!
06:42I saw it.
06:43I put the phone back in my purse.
06:46You came to New York from Chicago for him.
06:48Chloe was shaking with rage.
06:49Do you know how pissed your parents were?
06:51Back then, Nico Bellini was a nobody.
06:53And you bet ten years on him against your parents.
06:55Now you've lost everything.
06:56You even used your father's connections to launder his money,
06:58to build his network,
06:59to get him where he is today.
07:00And he had the nerve to wait until the night before the wedding
07:02to show his true colors?
07:03Chloe's eyes were filling with tears.
07:07Serafina, wake up.
07:09A man like that isn't worth it.
07:11I stood up and walked to the full-length mirror.
07:13The woman in the mirror wore a million-dollar dress.
07:15Her makeup was perfect.
07:17Her posture elegant.
07:18Like a beautiful piece of art.
07:19But her eyes were completely cold.
07:21I turned to face her.
07:23A ten-year bet.
07:25It's time to collect.
07:26You mean, you're gonna break up with him?
07:29Break up?
07:30I laughed.
07:30No.
07:32That's letting him off too easy.
07:34As for my parents,
07:36after the wedding is over,
07:38I'll go back and admit I lost.
07:40Today is the day I collect on all my bets.
07:47I needed some air.
07:48I pushed open the French doors to the terrace
07:50and stepped outside.
07:51The New York autumn air was cool against my bare shoulders.
07:54They were coming from the small balcony next to mine,
07:56where they were gathered for a smoke break.
07:57The boss is playing with fire this time, huh?
08:00Is he really not coming back?
08:01What fire?
08:03He's got a siren wrapped around him.
08:04What's he supposed to do?
08:06Besides,
08:06the Donna is easier to handle than the little princess.
08:09The boss knows what he's doing.
08:10Rocco took a drag from his cigarette.
08:12How long do you think the Donna will put up with it?
08:14Look at her today.
08:16The groom ditches her in front of all the media and guests,
08:18and she doesn't even flinch.
08:20Marco sighed.
08:21With a Donna like that,
08:23the boss doesn't know how good he have it.
08:25So when is he coming back?
08:27The guests are all here.
08:29If we drag this out any longer,
08:31Tony said, unfazed.
08:32What's the rush?
08:34I'll give the boss a video call right now.
08:36See what the hell is going on.
08:37I held my breath,
08:38pressing myself against the wall.
08:39I heard the sound of a video call connecting.
08:42Boss,
08:43about the wedding?
08:44Nico's voice came through the phone.
08:45Ah,
08:46what is it?
08:47I could also hear a woman's flirtatious giggles
08:49and faint moans.
08:50My fingers gripped the railing.
08:53Boss,
08:54the Donna's out here.
08:55She's asking about the wedding.
08:57Rocco said in a low voice.
08:58Tell her to wait.
08:59Nico's voice was impatient.
09:01I'm busy.
09:02Nico,
09:02pay attention to me.
09:04Tony chimed in with a smirk.
09:05Boss,
09:06sounds like you're busy over there.
09:08This little devil won't let me go.
09:10Nico's voice was full of smug satisfaction.
09:12Keeps begging me to stay.
09:13Marco joked.
09:14Well,
09:14you handle your business,
09:16boss.
09:16We can handle the Donna for you.
09:18Before he could finish,
09:19I pushed open the terrace door.
09:24The smiles on their faces died.
09:26I said calmly,
09:27the wedding starts in three minutes.
09:29Donna,
09:29wait.
09:29Wait.
09:30Rocco scrambled to end the call.
09:31Since Nico is busy,
09:32let him listen.
09:33I walked over.
09:34I looked at the phone screen.
09:35I couldn't see the picture,
09:36but I could hear those sickening sounds.
09:38Over 300 guests are waiting for the wedding of the century.
09:41My voice was flat.
09:43Do you think this is appropriate?
09:44Marco tried to smooth things over with a dry laugh.
09:46The boss is just...
09:48Someone muttered.
09:49Is three minutes enough for him to finish?
09:51Enough.
09:52I cut them off.
09:52My voice cold.
09:53The air turned to ice.
09:54On the other end of the line,
09:55Nico had obviously heard the three minutes.
09:57He laughed,
09:57a sound full of contempt.
09:59Rocco quickly hung up.
10:00The men fumbled to put out their cigars
10:01and straighten their suits.
10:02The air was thick with embarrassment.
10:04I turned to leave.
10:09Donna!
10:10Wait!
10:11Marco rushed after me,
10:12a pleading smile on his face.
10:14Marco whispered.
10:15The boss has you in his heart.
10:16You know that.
10:17After all these years...
10:19You're trying to placate me.
10:20You know how men are.
10:21It's just for fun.
10:30I ignored Marco's words.
10:32Just for fun?
10:33If this was just for fun,
10:34then what was last night's humiliation?
10:36I walked back to the waiting room,
10:37my mind replaying the last ten years.
10:39I never wanted to believe
10:40that the man I'd been with for a decade
10:41would change his heart
10:42for some girl fresh out of college.
10:44Isla Marino.
10:45The only daughter of an old-money New York family.
10:4722, blonde, blue-eyed,
10:49and hopelessly naive.
10:50The complete opposite of me,
10:51a woman who had walked the line
10:53of the underworld for ten years.
10:54He changed after he met her
10:56at an auction six months ago.
10:57At first, I made excuses for him.
10:59The late night encrypted messages,
11:01family business,
11:02he said,
11:03the unfamiliar perfume on his clothes,
11:05just some woman who hugged him
11:06too tight at a party,
11:07he claimed.
11:08I chose to ignore
11:09all the suspicious moments.
11:10I believed that ten years of history
11:12couldn't be defeated
11:13by some little girl
11:15until three months ago.
11:16He started letting me find out on purpose.
11:18He stopped making excuses
11:19for coming home late.
11:20Just a simple got held up.
11:22He stopped hiding his phone,
11:23taking calls from her
11:24right in front of me,
11:25his voice soft and warm.
11:26He even started discussing with me
11:28how an exceptional man
11:29can't have just one woman.
11:30As if this was a gift
11:31he was giving me.
11:32As if I should be grateful.
11:33Chloe was right.
11:34He kept up the act for so long,
11:36only tearing away
11:36the final layer of disguise
11:37the day before the wedding.
11:38He did it in the cruelest way possible.
11:41He made me see it,
11:41made me hear it,
11:42showed me exactly what I was to him.
11:44He waited until I had no way out.
11:46Now, his men were still outside whispering.
11:48They thought I would walk down the aisle alone
11:50in my wedding dress,
11:51stand before the priest,
11:52and wait for a groom
11:53who might never show up.
11:54And then I would smile
11:55and say I do
11:56to an empty space.
11:57That was the script Nico had left for me.
11:59His men stood on either side of me.
12:00Still wearing those
12:01everything is under control smiles.
12:03I looked at the time.
12:0411 o'clock on the dot.
12:05Just then,
12:06commotion came from inside the church.
12:08The main door slowly swung open.
12:10A tall, imposing figure
12:11stood silhouetted against the light.
12:12Every smile in the room froze.
12:15No, no, no.
12:18Come on, pick up, come on.
12:24Meanwhile, at Nico's private estate,
12:26in the lavish master bedroom,
12:27Isla was wrapped in a silk sheet,
12:29pouting at Nico,
12:30who was getting dressed.
12:31Are you really leaving?
12:32She stuck out her lip.
12:34I want more.
12:36Baby, I have to go.
12:38Nico fastened his cufflinks.
12:39She gave me three minutes.
12:41It's been 20.
12:42So what?
12:44What's she going to do to you?
12:46Nico chuckled
12:46and walked over to kiss her forehead.
12:48You don't know her temper.
12:50She's usually tame,
12:51but she can be a real bitch
12:52when she's pissed.
12:53His tone was confident,
12:54as if he had it all under control.
12:56But I promised her
12:57the wedding of the century.
12:59I have to at least
13:00see the show through for her.
13:02Isla wrapped her arms
13:03around his neck.
13:03What about the marriage license?
13:05You promised me.
13:10Of course it's yours.
13:12Nico said without hesitation.
13:14My legal wife can only be you.
13:16Don't worry about that.
13:17He picked up his phone
13:17from the nightstand
13:18to call his driver,
13:19but the flood of notifications
13:21on his screen made him pause.
13:22The encrypted group chat
13:24was blowing up.
13:25It was filled with emergency calls
13:26and voice messages
13:27from Rocco and the others.
13:29Boss.
13:30Emergency.
13:30Boss, call back now.
13:32Something big just happened.
13:33The last message was a video file
13:35sent by Rocco just moments ago.
13:38Nico frowned and tapped it open.
13:40His pupils shrank.
13:41Isla saw Nico's face and flinched.
13:43She sat up in bed.
13:44You look like you've seen a ghost.
13:46The phone shook in Nico's hand.
13:51In the video,
13:52Serafina was smiling,
13:53wearing the million dollar wedding dress
13:55he had custom made for her.
13:56Standing beside her
13:57was a man in a designer suit.
13:59They looked perfect together,
14:00like it was their wedding.
14:02F*** away.
14:02The words just came out of Nico's mouth.
14:05He chose that dress.
14:06He ordered those white roses.
14:08He planned this wedding.
14:09Serafina had been his woman for 10 years.
14:11How could this happen?
14:12And this guy.
14:13He was Caspian DeLuca.
14:15Serafina's biggest rival.
14:16From the day he burst onto the scene,
14:18he went after her.
14:19Relentless.
14:19Like he had a personal vendetta.
14:21Caspian DeLuca.
14:22The dawn of the DeLuca family.
14:23The man who runs New York's oldest
14:25and most powerful family.
14:26His empire runs from finance
14:28to shipping to media.
14:29Even Nico had to show him some respect.
14:31A man like that.
14:32How could he possibly want Serafina?
14:36She is just the daughter of some Chicago suit.
14:39A nobody.
14:40No family.
14:41No name.
14:41What did she have?
14:42A pretty face and a knack for business.
14:45That is it.
14:45Besides,
14:46Caspian's always been cold, arrogant.
14:48He has never been tied to any woman.
14:50How the hell did he suddenly show up at Nico's wedding?
14:53Nico took a deep breath,
14:54trying to calm down.
14:56Right.
14:56That had to be it.
14:57Serafina would never betray him.
14:59She wouldn't marry someone else at the wedding
15:00she'd always dreamed of.
15:02Nico thought back to when he was just a punk on the street.
15:05She gave him every penny she had to start his business.
15:07She traveled to 12 cities for him.
15:09Worked herself into the ground
15:11until she was hospitalized with a bleeding stomach.
15:13She used her father's connections to push him,
15:15step by step,
15:16to where he was today.
15:17A woman who loved him that much.
15:19How could she just turn on him?
15:20Nico dialed Rocco's number.
15:25Boss.
15:26The line exploded with chaos.
15:27You finally called.
15:29What the hell is going on?
15:30Why did you let Caspian DeLuca in the church?
15:34Nico roared.
15:34We don't know.
15:35Rocco sounded like he was about to cry.
15:37He just showed up.
15:38Said he was here for the wedding.
15:39For the wedding?
15:40Nico sneered.
15:41He's here to humiliate me.
15:43Boss, what do we do now?
15:44The guests are all whippering.
15:46What's the panic?
15:47Caspian has no shame,
15:48but the DeCola family has a reputation.
15:50He won't pull a stunt in front of all these people.
15:52Nico forced calm into his voice.
15:54But boss.
15:54But what?
15:55Rocco's voice came back trembling.
15:58Boss, you need to see the second video I sent you.
16:06The red carpet, covered in white roses,
16:08stretched out before me.
16:09Every flower was priceless,
16:10every detail perfect.
16:11I held Caspian's arm,
16:13feeling the fine fabric of his suit.
16:14This was no off.
16:15The rack tucks.
16:16Just signing the papers would have been enough.
16:18The ceremony isn't important.
16:19I let out a small laugh.
16:20This wedding comes with flowers,
16:21a band,
16:22300 guests,
16:23and a Michelin star feast.
16:24And it's all free.
16:25A hint of a smile touched his lips.
16:27Why let it go to waste?
16:29Besides,
16:30you already changed into this custom suit
16:32in the car behind the church.
16:33If you really didn't care,
16:35you wouldn't have come so prepared.
16:36A flicker of something new lit his eyes.
16:38The look of a man meeting his match.
16:39You don't miss a thing.
16:41He didn't deny it.
16:42Instead, he stopped walking
16:43and lowered his head.
16:44His warm breath brushed against my forehead.
16:46A free wedding.
16:48I'll play along.
16:52His voice was quiet,
16:53but it held a tone of command you couldn't refuse.
16:56Then his thumb started drawing little circles
16:58on the back of my hand.
16:59The touch was soft,
17:00but it was a deliberate tease.
17:01But for that comment,
17:03I'll be collecting with interest.
17:07A jolt went through me.
17:08I could feel my cheeks getting hot.
17:10This man.
17:11He was more dangerous than I thought.
17:12The organ began the solemn wedding march.
17:15Caspian took my hand
17:16and we started walking again.
17:17His hand was large and warm,
17:19swallowing mine completely.
17:20It was different
17:21from Nico's cold, possessive grip.
17:23This felt more like protection.
17:24The guests started whispering.
17:26Isn't that the Don DeLuby?
17:27What's he doing with Baluby's fiance?
17:31Where's Mr. Baluby?
17:36The murmurs grew louder.
17:38I saw a few of Nico's top guys
17:39standing by the aisle.
17:40Their faces ashen.
17:41Rocco tried to pull out his phone
17:42to send a warning,
17:43but the screen read,
17:44no signal.
17:45He tried again, nothing.
17:46Tony pulled out his phone too.
17:47Same thing.
17:48They finally realized it.
17:49They had completely lost control of the situation.
17:51We reached the altar.
17:52The priest, a kind old man,
17:53looked from me to the new man at my side.
17:55His confusion was obvious,
17:56but he was a professional.
17:57He recovered quickly.
17:58Ma'am, if I may...
17:59Continue.
18:00I said calmly,
18:01follow the original plan.
18:02The priest nodded and opened his book.
18:04Sunlight streamed through the stained glass
18:06falling on us like a blessing.
18:08Caspian stood beside me,
18:09tall and straight as a pine tree.
18:11His profile looked even sharper
18:12in the light and shadow.
18:13Dearly beloved,
18:14we are gathered here today
18:16to witness the union of this man
18:18and this woman in holy matrimony.
18:23The commotion in the pews grew.
18:25People were whispering,
18:26some trying to take pictures.
18:27Cameras flashed,
18:28but with the cell signal jammed,
18:29the pictures weren't going anywhere.
18:31They were finally getting it.
18:32They had no power here.
18:33This wedding was never in their control.
18:35Missa Serafina Vitale,
18:37do you take...
18:38The church doors were thrown open.
18:39Everyone turned.
18:40The familiar figure stood silhouetted
18:42against the light,
18:43panting, rushing inside.
18:44Nico Bellini,
18:45his six-figure tux,
18:46was a wreck.
18:46His hair was wild,
18:47his eyes burning with fury.
18:49Serafiana!
18:49Get the hell down from there!
18:51His tuxedo was a wreck,
18:52bow tie crooked,
18:53hair a mess.
18:53He'd clearly rushed here.
18:55Rocco ran to him
18:55like he'd just seen his savior.
18:57You're finally here.
18:58He gasped.
18:58Serafina.
18:59She...
19:00She walked down the whole aisle
19:01with Caspian.
19:02What?
19:04Good thing you saw
19:04that second video I sent.
19:09That video.
19:09The one Rocco secretly filmed
19:11from a side corridor.
19:12The aisle was long.
19:13I walked,
19:13step by step,
19:14toward Caspian,
19:15and then I offered him my hand.
19:16Nico's face turned uglier.
19:17He knew better than anyone
19:18how much I hated Caspian DeLuca.
19:20For the last five years,
19:21we've been at each other's throats
19:22in the black market for art.
19:23Every major auction,
19:25every big deal,
19:25he had to stick his nose in it.
19:27I hated his arrogance.
19:28Hated how he never showed any mercy.
19:29Most of all,
19:30I hated how he always ruined things
19:31for me at the last second.
19:33And now,
19:33Nico couldn't process
19:34what he was seeing.
19:35Especially the way
19:35I was looking at Caspian.
19:36I had never looked at any other man
19:38with that kind of softness.
19:39The priest was frozen on the altar,
19:41unsure what to do.
19:42I didn't turn around.
19:43I just spoke calmly to the priest.
19:44Please, continue.
19:45Those two words
19:46made Nico's face
19:47go pale with rage.
19:48He stormed up the aisle,
19:50his voice low but shaking.
19:51Have you lost your damn mind?
19:56I finally turned
19:57to face the man
19:57I once loved so desperately.
19:59Right now,
19:59his eyes were filled
20:00with anger, confusion,
20:01and something that looked
20:02a lot like panic.
20:03Serafina, stop this.
20:05He said,
20:05trying to grab my hand.
20:06You think this little show
20:07with him is gonna make me jealous?
20:09You think this is how
20:10you threaten me?
20:11I took a small step back,
20:12avoiding his touch.
20:15That simple move
20:16made his eyes darken.
20:18Who is Caspian DeLuca?
20:20Nico raised his voice
20:21like he wanted
20:21everyone here to listen.
20:23The dawn of the DeLuca family.
20:25You think he can't have
20:26any debutette he wants?
20:27Any beauty he desires?
20:29He pointed at me,
20:30his eyes full of contempt.
20:31You think he'd want you?
20:33A woman I've had
20:34for ten years?
20:38A collective gasp
20:39went through the crowd.
20:40Caspian's eyes turned cold,
20:42deadly.
20:42He stepped forward,
20:43shielding me.
20:44Watch your mouth, Bellini.
20:45His voice was soft,
20:46but it carried a deadly threat.
20:47One more disrespectful
20:48word about her.
20:49I'll show you exactly
20:50how the DeLuca family
20:51does things.
20:53Seeing Caspian protect me,
20:54a flash of panic
20:55crossed Nico's eyes.
20:56He covered it up quickly.
20:57He sneered.
20:58You think I don't know
20:59your game?
21:00His gaze shot back and forth
21:01between me and Caspian.
21:02You're just using her
21:03to get back at me,
21:04to ruin my name,
21:05to destroy my wedding!
21:07Seraphana, wake up!
21:08He reached for me again.
21:10Don't be a pawn
21:11and think you've won.
21:12Nico took another step closer.
21:14His eyes were certain,
21:15like he still thought
21:15he was in control.
21:16Come down now,
21:17and I'll pretend
21:18today never happened.
21:22He held out his hand,
21:24his voice dripping
21:25with condescending forgiveness.
21:26We'll have another wedding.
21:28You'll still be Mrs. Bellini.
21:30He was waiting for me
21:31to run back to him,
21:32crying.
21:33Waiting for me to apologize
21:34and beg for his forgiveness,
21:35just like I had countless times
21:37over the last ten years.
21:38Waiting for me to gratefully
21:39accept his generosity,
21:40but I just watched him.
21:42And then,
21:42I gave him a light,
21:43airy smile.
21:44That smile made the certainty
21:45in his eyes shatter.
21:47I turned my head
21:47to Caspian beside me.
21:49He was staring at me.
21:50His dark eyes held something
21:51I'd never seen before.
21:52Something deep,
21:53burning,
21:53dangerous.
21:54I stood on my toes.
21:55I wrapped my arms around his neck
21:56and kissed him.
21:57Caspian froze for only a second.
21:59The next,
22:00he took control.
22:01He was a predator,
22:02one who had held back
22:02for far too long,
22:03and his prey had just
22:04walked right into his arms.
22:09His arm wrapped tight
22:10around my waist,
22:11pulling me against him.
22:12The kiss was forceful,
22:13dominant,
22:14almost like he was claiming me.
22:15I could feel the desire
22:16he'd suppressed for years
22:17finally exploding.
22:18The entire room gasped.
22:19Woman covered their mouths.
22:20Others stared,
22:21wide-eyed.
22:22Sarah Vader!
22:24Nico let out a strangled shriek,
22:26a sound like someone
22:27had his throat in a vice.
22:28His voice was broken,
22:29desperate,
22:30echoing through the silent church.
22:32I heard him.
22:32I didn't stop.
22:33In fact,
22:34I kissed Caspian back even harder.
22:35His lips were soft and warm,
22:37a stark contrast to his cold exterior.
22:39I could taste mint,
22:40could feel his breathing quicken.
22:42When Caspian finally pulled away,
22:43his thumb gently brushed my lip.
22:45The gesture was tender,
22:46but his eyes were hot enough
22:47to burn everything down.
22:51You started it.
22:52He said,
22:52his voice impossibly hoarse.
22:54His dark eyes burned
22:55with raw possession.
22:56This time,
22:57I'm not letting you go.
22:59The second he finished speaking,
23:00men in black suits emerged
23:01from all corners of the church.
23:03Clearly,
23:04this was all planned.
23:05Drag him out.
23:05Caspian said without looking back.
23:07Yes, boss.
23:08The bodyguards moved toward Nico
23:10with practiced efficiency.
23:11Don't you dare.
23:12Nico scrambled backwards.
23:13This is my wedding,
23:14my church.
23:15No one listened.
23:16Two guards grabbed him by the arms.
23:18Seraphana,
23:19wake up.
23:20Nico screamed as they dragged him away,
23:22not giving up.
23:22He's just using you.
23:24He just wants to humiliate me.
23:25You were with me for 10 years.
23:2810 years.
23:29How could you betray me
23:30for a man who doesn't even love you?
23:35His voice got more desperate,
23:37more broken.
23:38He's just picking up my sloppy seconds.
23:41Caspian DeGalca,
23:42you're just taking the woman
23:43I'm done with.
23:44At that,
23:45murder flashed in Caspian's eyes.
23:47He signaled the guards to stop,
23:48then walked slowly over to Nico.
23:50What did you just say?
23:51Nico was shaken by his presence,
23:53but refused to back down.
23:54I said you're taking my sloppy seconds.
23:57She was mine for 10 years.
24:01Every inch of her skin,
24:02I-
24:02Caspian's fist connected squarely
24:04with Nico's face.
24:05Blood sprayed.
24:06I'll say this one last time.
24:08Caspian grabbed Nico by the collar.
24:09His voice as cold as ice.
24:11Insult her again,
24:12and I'll cut your tongue out.
24:13Nico was dazed,
24:14but he still struggled.
24:18I didn't marry Islas.
24:20I never signed the papers.
24:21This was the first time,
24:22the first time I ever really wanted
24:24to marry someone.
24:25His voice glaced with tears.
24:27Seraphina,
24:28please,
24:28come back to me.
24:29I can change.
24:30I'll change everything for you.
24:32For you.
24:33But no one was listening anymore.
24:34The guards kept dragging him out.
24:36His voice grew fainter,
24:37more broken,
24:38until finally,
24:39it was gone.
24:40The priest,
24:40trembling,
24:41finished the vows.
24:42You may now exchange rings.
24:43Caspian pulled an antique ring box
24:44from his inner suit pocket.
24:46It was deep blue velvet,
24:47trimmed with delicate gold thread.
24:49Your hand.
24:50He said softly,
24:51but with that same quiet authority.
24:53I did as he said.
24:54He opened the box.
24:56Inside was a uniquely designed ring,
24:58a platinum band
24:58with a perfect blue sapphire
25:00at its center.
25:00But it wasn't the gem
25:01that shocked me.
25:05But it wasn't the gem
25:07that shocked me.
25:07It was the design.
25:09I knew that pattern
25:10carved around the sapphire
25:11were fine vines.
25:12with flowers shaped exactly like
25:13the little daisies
25:14I doodled as a kid.
25:16It was 15 years ago,
25:17a summer afternoon.
25:18Caspian and I were just kids,
25:20already being pushed
25:21into an arranged marriage
25:22by our fathers.
25:24I fought it hard.
25:25I thought the quiet,
25:26brooding boy
25:26was boring as hell.
25:28I'm never marrying
25:29a boar like you.
25:31And if I did,
25:32the ring would have to be
25:33something I like.
25:34We argued about it
25:35on the lawn of the estate.
25:36Then I threw the paper
25:37in his face
25:38and ran off.
25:39He didn't say anything then,
25:40just quietly picked up
25:42the crumpled piece of paper.
25:44I thought he'd forgotten
25:45all about it,
25:45but he hadn't.
25:49You remembered.
25:51My voice cracked.
25:53I've remembered for 15 years,
25:55Caspian said,
25:56focused as he slid the ring
25:57onto my finger.
25:58I had it commissioned
25:59that same day.
26:00He looked up at me,
26:02his eyes filled
26:02with a tenderness
26:03I'd never seen.
26:08Now,
26:09you can't run away?
26:13All those old hurts
26:14were finally laid to rest.
26:16I quit running
26:16a long time ago.
26:18I wasted 10 years.
26:19But I've got my life
26:20back now.
26:24Now,
26:24this is my life.
