His 500th Letter Came Too Late

It hurt knowing that Dante Everett, the heir to the Ricci Family, the man I gave ten years of my life to, had no intention of marrying me.

I stayed inside Ricci territory for a decade, clinging to his empty promises that I was the woman he'd chosen, that he loved me, that I'd be the lady of his house one day. But all those words meant nothing the moment she arrived.

Camilla Moretti.

She came clutching a letter from her father, begging Dante to shelter her for a time because the Moretti compound had been hit. She wasn't safe.
