Karma

Saat menonton film porno, sering terlihat penari dengan gaya split... Aku merasa semangat setiap kali membukanya. Hingga suatu hari, aku dan guru tari putriku tanpa sengaja terkunci di dalam studio tari. Sepasang pria dan wanita terkurung di dalam satu ruangan, suasananya sangat ambigu. Untuk meredakan kecanggungan, guru tari putriku menawarkan diri ingin menari untukku. Menyaksikan bentuk tubuhnya yang menarik terus bergoyang. Panas dalam tubuhku hampir tak terkendali. Aku ingin segera menekannya!

Demi mencapai standar postur tubuh pramugari, kekasihku memperkenalkanku ke sebuah klinik khusus perawatan tubuh. Namun, di balik pintu ruang dokter, terdengar suara memelas dan jeritan kesakitan yang meningkatkan imajinasi. Saat aku hendak menyerah, aku diseret masuk oleh seorang dokter bertubuh tinggi. Dia mengikatku dengan pose memalukan, lalu mengambil peralatan, mulai membantuku memulihkan kekencanganku.

Um die Vernichtung des Meervolks zu verhindern, beschloss ich, an Land zu gehen und meinen Jugendfreund Cyrus zu verführen, der inzwischen zum Alpha-König aufgestiegen war. Wie erwartet liebte er mich immer noch. Drei Tage und Nächte verbrachten wir voller Leidenschaft im Bett. Als ich aus den Freuden erwacht war, konnte ich mich kaum freuen, da er mich bereits mit ätzender Flüssigkeit übergoss. Ich schrie vor Schmerz auf, während Cyrus kalt lachend daneben stand. „Eine unsterbliche Meerjungfrau kann also auch Schmerzen spüren?“ „Das ist erst der Anfang. Solange du das Versteck meiner Eltern nicht verrätst, wirst du keine ruhige Minute haben!“ Er war überzeugt, dass unser Meervolk für das Verschwinden seiner Eltern verantwortlich war. Von da an musste ich zusehen, wie er absichtlich mit seiner Geliebten Emily flirtete; musste die Meerjungfrauen-Perle aus meinem Herzen entfernen, um Emilys Gesundheit zu stärken; musste unter qualvollen Schmerzen barfuß tanzen, um Emily in den Schlaf zu wiegen... Er hasste mich bis ins Mark, doch jedes Mal, wenn ich dem Tod nahe war, nahm er mich auch in die Arme und flößte mir Medizin ein. Mal war er eiskalt: „Glaubst du, ich bin wehrlos, weil ich dich liebe? Wachen, foltert sie weiter!“ Mal war er sanft: „Sei brav und sag mir – wo sind meine Eltern wirklich?“ Stillschweigend ertrug ich seine widersprüchliche Liebe. Bald würde ich das Geheimnis über seine Eltern nicht mehr hüten müssen. Denn wenn eine Meerjungfrau drei Jahre an Land blieb, ohne ins Meer zurückzukehren, verwandelte sie sich unweigerlich in Schaum. Bis zu meinem Tod blieben nur noch drei Tage.

While they slice me apart, I desperately call my brother, Nathan Slade. He finally picks up as my consciousness starts to slip and answers in an annoyed voice, "What now?" "Nathan, help—" I don't get to finish before he cuts me off. "Can't you ever go a day without drama? Gemma's graduation is at the end of the month. Miss it, and I swear I'll kill you!" Then, he hangs up without a second thought. The agonizing pain swallows me whole, and my eyes close for good, tears still trailing down my cheeks. Well, good news, Nathan… You won't have to kill me because I'm already dead.

J'étais enceinte de huit mois, mais mon compagnon Alpha, Damien, m'a enfermée dans une cage en argent au sous-sol pour retarder la naissance de notre bébé. Quand j'ai appelé à l'aide, il m'a simplement dit d'attendre. Parce que la compagne de son frère défunt, Victoria, accouchait elle aussi ce jour-là. Le voyant de la meute avait prédit que seul le premier louveteau recevrait la bénédiction de la Déesse de la Lune et deviendrait le futur Alpha. « Le titre revient à l'enfant de Victoria », a-t-il dit. « Elle a perdu Marcus. Elle n'a plus rien. Tu as déjà tout mon amour, Hélène. La cage en argent garantira que tu accouches après elle. » Les contractions étaient insupportables. Je l'ai supplié de m'emmener à la clinique. Il m'a saisie par le menton et m'a forcée à le regarder. « Arrête de faire semblant. J'aurais dû comprendre que tu ne m'as jamais aimé. Tout ce qui t'importe, c'est la richesse et le statut ! » « Déclencher ton accouchement juste pour voler ce qui revient à mon neveu… Tu es vraiment ignoble. » Pâle et tremblante, j'ai murmuré : « Le petit arrive, je ne peux plus l'arrêter. Je t'en supplie, je ferai un serment de sang. Je me fiche de l'héritage. Je t'aime, c'est tout ce qui compte ! » Il a ricané. « Si tu m'aimais vraiment, tu n'aurais pas forcé Victoria à signer ce contrat pour renoncer aux droits de naissance de son petit. Je reviendrai te chercher une fois qu'elle aura accouché. Après tout, c'est aussi mon petit, là-dedans. » Il est resté planté devant la salle d'accouchement de Victoria. Ce n'est qu'en voyant le nouveau-né dans ses bras qu'il s'est souvenu de moi. Il a ordonné à son Bêta de me libérer. Mais la voix du Bêta tremblait. « Luna… et le petit… ils sont morts. » Et à cet instant, Damien a perdu la raison.

After Dad cheated and divorced Mom, I did not choose Mom, who walked away with nothing. Instead, I chose Dad, who clearly favored his illegitimate son, Oliver Brooks. It was only because after their divorce, Mom's obsession with reconciliation romance novels got me killed twice. In my first life, Mom was so desperate for Dad's respect that she willingly gave up everything in the divorce just to take me with her. In the end, my heart condition flared up, and without money for treatment, I died in agony on that hospital bed. In my second life, I went against Mom's wishes and asked Dad for the surgery money upfront. However, Mom was hell-bent on pushing Dad onto a so-called redemption path, forced me to go bungee jumping the day before my surgery. Dad tried to stop me from jumping, but he was speeding and ended up in a fatal car crash. Mom blamed everything on me. With pure hatred in her eyes, she shoved me off that cliff. "Useless piece of trash! Not only can't you help me win your father back, but you got him killed too. You might as well die with him!" That moment made everything crystal clear: Mom never actually loved me. She just saw me as a tool to get Dad back. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Mom demanded a divorce from Dad, for the third time.

In my last life, my brother Leo—the heir to the Moretti crime family—stripped our estate bare of every last soldier, all for a Vegas jaunt. All because his new flame, Scarlett, had a jones for the high-roller tables. The Volkovs—our rivals, the very ones Leo had just pissed off—saw their opening and stormed our gates. My mother, Sofia, took a bullet meant for me. Died protecting me. I blew up Leo’s phone, my pleas turning to screams. He didn't answer. He waltzed back in after the shooting stopped, bringing our men home, but far too late for it to matter. Then, the news from Vegas. Scarlett was gone. A suicide note left behind. In it, she painted me as the monster. The one who’d leaked our weaknesses to the Volkovs. The one who'd orchestrated a fake kidnapping and torture plot, all to drive her to despair and lure Leo home. A perfect, tragic lie. Leo read the letter calmly. Then he burned the letter and told me, "Forget it. It's handled." Father tore into Leo for abandoning his post, for leaving his family to die. And me? I was named the new Consigliere. But after the celebration, Leo cornered me in the wine cellar. His face was a mask of cold fury as he pressed the barrel of his gun to my forehead. "This is for family traitors," he hissed, his voice pure venom. "The throne is my birthright, not some backstabbing bitch's prize!" When I opened my eyes again, I was back. Right in the middle of the fire and the blood. This time, I shoved my mother behind me, dragging her toward the panic room. And the bastards who were too blind to believe me? They’ll regret it.

El día que papá asistió a una fiesta con su ex y se volvió tendencia, todos se burlaban de mi mamá. Decían que había dejado atrás una gran carrera para entrar en una familia rica, pero después de treinta años seguía sin nombre ni lugar, sin siquiera el valor de reclamarle a la amante. Después de tanto llorar, mamá me miró cansada. —Él me falló primero, así que yo tampoco lo quiero. —Amanda, ¿te vas conmigo? Justo entonces sonó mi celular. Era un mensaje de mi novio de siete años: "Amanda, solo es un acta de matrimonio. ¿No podemos seguir como novios?" Guardé silencio unos segundos antes de asentir. Así fue que, el mismo día de su boda, mamá y yo desaparecimos entre las llamas de la mansión.

When my boyfriend, Mark Jamison, gets in a car accident that leaves him paralyzed, I pawn the ring my mother left to me before she died to help him. With hands that have never been used to do any work or a single household chore in my life, I start lugging around delivery bags. In the middle of a rainstorm, I get assigned to deliver a food order worth 10,000 dollars, with a 100-dollar tip. Just as I happily celebrate my luck, I overhear the raucous laughter coming from inside the villa. "She actually believes you got paralyzed in a car accident? She now spends all day doing deliveries just to support you financially? She even sold off her dead mom's ring?" "She'd probably cry her heart out if she ever finds you're actually a wealthy scion worth tens of billions of dollars, who's just pretending to be poor!" Mark twirls the wineglass he's holding and says, "A lowly woman like her was born to wait on others. She brought it upon herself by always being better than Rosie back in school. Messing with her is the punishment she deserves." I continue to stand in the rain, tears rolling down my cheeks. This is how I find out Mark has spent the last two years faking his condition just to help his childhood sweetheart get back at me. His so-called paralyzed legs, deceased parents, and helpless tears are all just part of a meticulously executed lie. I haven't talked to my father, the richest man in town, for years. But now, I have finally decided to call him. "I lost, Dad. I'll accept the marriage alliance and marry the guy you picked for me."
