Chapter 1

My roommate heard a rumor: the heir to a notorious Mafia family was looking for a girlfriend, and whoever got pregnant first would marry him.

She was ecstatic, immediately posting on the campus anonymous forum to find a way to get close to him.

As soon as the post went live, her Snapchat inbox was flooded with countless DMs—fake rumors, sketchy leads, and so-called "inside scoops."

But she didn't care. She was too busy filtering the messages, desperately preparing to offer her body to the future "Don."

All of us in the dorm tried our best to talk some sense into her. We told her the rumor was completely made up. Risking her body and her entire future for a sketchy internet rumor was way too high a price to pay.

Eventually, she seemed to give up on the idea and started attending classes quietly.

But later, she found out that a girl from another department had used a similar tactic and actually got engaged to the "heir."

Blaming us for ruining her shot at becoming a billionaire’s wife, she snapped. In a fit of rage, she poisoned our shared Brita pitcher.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the day she first told us she wanted to trap him with a pregnancy.
