CARLOIt's 2019 for Christ's sake. Arranged marriages don't happen anymore. They stopped years ago, didn't they? At least I thought they didn't still happen. But gee was I wrong! The day I was told by my Don that I would have to enter into an arranged marriage for the sake of the famiglia, I didn't question it. I would do anything for my Don and for my famiglia. So I would be married, even if in name only. And I would protect my new wife with my life. MY VOW was made; it would be done for my Don.ELLAMy life ended on a sunny day when I was twenty four years old. I was informed that I had to marry a man I did not know by my father. Under the guise of protection, I was told. But I know that's not true. It makes good business sense, that's all. And that's all my father cares about. The Famiglia.The business. So on that same day I made A VOW. A promise to myself. And a declaration to god.I would never love the man that my father had chosen for me.
