You Rejected Me, Now Kneel Before the Mafia Queen

My family sent me away to live like a nobody for six years.

No money. No guards. No family name.

It was the Sorrentino family's rule for their heir. Before taking over the most powerful mafia organization in the country, I had to survive on my own and learn what life was like without the protection of my family.

So I became Freya, an ordinary poor girl.

Then I met Alaric Mancusso.

He was a billionaire mafia Don who spoiled me rotten.

For six years, I thought I was the woman he loved most.

Until I overheard him celebrating the birth of his third child with another woman.

“Freya is the woman I love,” he said. “But she's not someone I can marry.”

His friends laughed. “So what happens to her?”

“I'll take care of her. She can have whatever she wants. But my wife has to come from the right family.”

He had no idea the poor girl he refused to marry was actually Freya Sorrentino, the only heiress of the most feared mafia family.

I cried that night.

Then I stopped.

My six-year training was over.

My father called the next morning.

“Freya, come home. It's time for you to take over the family.”

I wiped my tears and smiled.

“Dad, I want my husband-selection banquet on the same day.”

“You already have someone in mind?”

“No. I'll choose someone worthy of standing beside the Sorrentino heiress.”

And this time, I wouldn't be choosing Alaric.
