"It was supposed to be mine." The diamond ring I dreamed of for five years glinted on another woman's hand. As Luca stood by and watched, Sofia Bellandi poured red wine all over my white silk gown at his lavish yacht-engagement party. For half a decade, I loved Luca Moretti-the ruthless head of a criminal syndicate. I thought his yacht party would finally bring me into his world. I thought our future was locked inside that diamond. Instead, he paraded Sofia in front of every powerful guest and announced their engagement. When I refused to accept this betrayal, Luca locked me inside a guarded cabin. When I begged him to listen, Luca turned cold: "I want to believe you. But I can't take that chance." His men dragged me onto a tender, and abandoned me on a deserted cay without food or water.
