A Escrava Odiada Do Rei Alfa

Durante três anos de casamento secreto, Henrique Carvalho aparecia apenas duas vezes por mês, cumprindo de forma fria o dever de marido. Nunca se importou, nunca quis conhecê-la de verdade. Quando o prazo terminou e ele correu de volta ao antigo amor, foi ela quem, com um sorriso sereno, decidiu partir sem olhar atrás: — Henrique, quero o divórcio. Você está livre agora. Ela desistiu dele, deixou para trás a família que nunca teve e mergulhou no trabalho. Brilhou, conquistou o mundo e tornou-se inalcançável. Ao lado dela, já não havia espaço para ele. Henrique foi, pouco a pouco, sendo arrebatado pelo brilho e talento dela. Mas apenas quando a perdeu para sempre… Descobriu a verdade que mudava tudo. Só então entendeu: havia apagado a existência dela duas vezes. E foi ela quem atravessou continentes para defendê-lo, firme, apenas para quitar a dívida de uma vida salva no passado. Quando percebeu o erro, já era tarde. Ela resplandecia como um tesouro nacional, inalcançável a todos. Ele iniciou a jornada para reconquistá-la… Mas recebeu a resposta gélida: — Não quero mais ser a sua esposa. Agora, chegou a vez dele lutar por ela. E, para tê-la de volta, não medirá esforços… Nem mesmo os mais duros.

Race International Corporation is now facing an issue as to why the company’s ratings and sales have dropped. To organize this Rena Claudia Race, the female heiress, had to marry the sole heir of the Fe Veragon Franchise. At first, she thought everything was going to be easy. That by agreeing to marry that man everything would be all right. But what she didn’t know, as Weidal entered her life many more problems lay ahead. And the worst part? She'll fell in love with him. At the time of their wedding, would she say I do or runaway? "I thought you loved me so I became complacent. But was I wrong the moment I believed you felt the same?"

After ten years together, Aiden, my Alpha, my first and only love, finally promised to hold the mating ceremony with me during the Spring Hunt Festival. I was overjoyed. That night, at the festival party, I downed a few extra glasses of wine. However, Aiden, who had always been so gentle with me, suddenly became someone I didn't recognize. He scolded me, said I was unfit to be the future Luna if I couldn’t even follow the rules, and shoved me out of the car. Drunk and dazed, I was left alone in the dangerous Shadow Forest. Terrified but unwilling to break, I walked through that forest for five hours in the dead of night. When I finally made it back to our home, I heard him in the other room, sending a voice message to Seraphina, his first love. "If you’re willing to come back," he said, his voice soft and warm, "I’ll do anything for you." Seraphina replied, "Even cancel the mating ceremony?" Time stopped. I silently counted to thirteen. Then, I heard his answer: "Yes." Listening to that voice—the one that used to whisper promises to me—I cried. If that was what he truly wanted, then maybe calling off the ceremony was for the best. So, to spare him the choice, I fled. On the day of our mating ceremony, I disappeared. No one expected what came next. The proud, composed Alpha Aiden went mad trying to find me.

A town with a strange past. A group of teenagers with secrets to hide. A world inside a box and a man who should no longer exist. Will they ever find out where they truly belong?

After dating for seven years, I proposed a hundred and one times to my boyfriend, Jason Brown. However, he always told me that he was not ready, rejecting my proposals. This continued to my 28th birthday. In his suit pocket, I found a ring box. Thinking he was about to propose to me, I was overjoyed. However, to my horror, I saw him going down on one knee to propose to his assistant, Marcella Hopkins. Right before my eyes, he placed the ring I had yearned for so long on her finger. When one of his buddies asked what he planned to do with me, Jason wrapped his arm around his new love and chuckled. "Dude, I don't think I can bring myself to marry a woman who wants to get married that badly. She's so needy. However, if I do get a second wife, I might consider her. After all, she is hopelessly in love with me." He was sure I would wait for him, and he even placed a bet with his friends that I would crash his wedding. However, on his wedding day, I never showed up. Moments before his wedding ceremony was about to start, he suddenly noticed me, fully dressed up in a wedding gown in a separate banquet hall. Seeing me about to marry someone else, he almost went crazy.

My wife, Lindsey Kelsey, suffers from an aversion to intimacy. For ten years of marriage, she pushed me away again and again. Then, on our anniversary, she abandoned me and, in front of the crowd, kissed another man with reckless passion before the two of them walked hand in hand into a luxury hotel. Afterward, Lindsey brazenly declared that a real man should be magnanimous, not petty. Magnanimous? Then I wish them both eternal bliss—may they be bound so tightly they can never break free from one another. Later, I handed Lindsey the divorce papers with a blank expression. I was determined to walk away from her. But Lindsey went mad when she realized she couldn't find me anymore.

La primera decisión que tomé tras renacer fue rechazar el rito de marca con mi compañero Alfa, Ethan. En mi vida anterior, cuando Ethan intentó aplazar nuestra ceremonia de unión por trigésima segunda vez, lo amenacé invocando las leyes sagradas de la Diosa de la Luna. Al final, Ethan cedió. Para apaciguar mi furia, juró que nada volvería a interrumpirnos. Sin embargo, esa misma noche murió Ivy, su amante Omega. Desde aquel instante, Ethan me odió con cada fibra de su ser. Cuando le confesé que estaba esperando cachorros, me ahogó en las aguas gélidas del Mar del Norte. —Tú y la abominación que llevas dentro merecen morir por lo que le pasó a ella. Me escupió las palabras mientras me hundía la cabeza bajo el agua. Morí sumida en la desesperación. Pero al abrir los ojos, me encontraba de nuevo frente al altar. Ethan lucía impaciente. —A Ivy le duele el pecho... Tenemos que posponer la ceremonia de unión otra vez. Esperaba que le suplicara. En lugar de eso, me desabroché el collar ceremonial y se lo arrojé a la cara. —Ve con ella. Yo me largo. Ethan hizo una mueca de desprecio. —Deja el drama. Sin mi aroma, vas a regresar arrastrándote de rodillas en una semana. No sabía que, una hora más tarde, yo estaría tocando a la puerta de su enemigo mortal: Damon, el Tirano del Norte. Cuando publiqué una foto luciendo el anillo del Alfa Winterborn en mi dedo, con la leyenda “Un Alfa Mejor”, Ethan enloqueció...

Years after graduation, someone suddenly tags me in the class group chat. "Mr. Warren is gravely ill, Mira. Aren't you going to do anything? You really are heartless!" I only realize what's going on when I click on the fundraising link in the chat. Our high school homeroom teacher, Joseph Warren, has late-stage cancer. Thus, Lyra Fairfield, the class belle, is leading a fundraiser and patient-donor matching process. "I'll donate ten thousand dollars. My husband is the director of Waverly General Hospital, and I've already asked him to arrange a VIP ward for Mr. Warren." Right after I send that message, the group pounces on me. "Mira, you contracted an STD back then and tried to pin it on Lyra. She didn't even hold it against you, and now you're trying to steal her thunder? You're unbelievable!" "I can't believe you're still lying through your teeth during such a serious situation. You never change, do you?" Lyra immediately defuses the tension. "Mira, I don't blame you for what happened in the past, but you really shouldn't impersonate the director's wife. I've already arranged the ward and surgery, and I'm donating another 100 thousand dollars to Mr. Warren!" I'm this close to laughing out of sheer anger. She's the one who scratched her name off the diagnosis report and framed me for having an STD all those years ago. I never even confronted her about it, and now she's playing the victim? Lyra soon posts a photo in the group chat, showing off her husband's car. Yet, when I see the man in the passenger seat, I guffaw. Isn't that my husband's driver? When did he start running a hospital?

—Es mi pareja —dijo Jason en voz baja, con la cabeza un poco inclinada.En ese momento se abrió la puerta que teníamos detrás y sentí que el viento entraba en el edificio.Y sentí algo más. Algo que no podía describir.…No, no lo es —gritó otra voz, un poco retumbante, como el timbre que Jason dijo que tendría la voz del Alfa—: Ella es mía.-Pensaba que mi vida no podía ser peor, teniendo una familia maltratadora y un acosador que hacía de mi vida un infierno. Sólo mi novio hombre lobo, Jason, me convenció de ir a las tierras de su manada, donde estaría a salvo.Pero en cuanto llegamos allí, descubrí que «a salvo» era la última palabra que podía utilizar para describir mi situación.Primero, era la única humana allí. Segundo, Jason me mintió y nunca fue mi pareja. Y tercero, no podía volver al mundo humano, porque el Alfa me reclamó como suya, y ahora soy prisionera de por vida."Forzada a ser la pareja del Alfa" es una obra de Caricia Dulse, autora de eGlobal Creative Publishing.

Después de la muerte de Harper, mi hermana gemela, mi compañero Alfa me odió durante diez años. Por una década entera fui su Luna e intenté de todas las formas posibles complacerlo. Un día, me dijo: —Si tantas ganas tienes de darme gusto, entonces muérete. Así que, cuando vi que un camión se dirigía hacia mí, ni siquiera me moví; sin embargo, nunca esperé que Noah me empujara para salvarme. Quedó herido de gravedad. Antes de morir, me miró y susurró: —Charlotte, si nunca te hubiera conocido, todo habría sido mejor. Al funeral de Noah asistieron todos los sabios y los miembros de la manada. —Debí dejar que Noah eligiera a Harper como su Luna. Me arrepiento de haberlo obligado a escogerte en ese entonces. ¡Tú lo mataste! La madre de Noah estaba deshecha por el dolor. El padre de Noah también habló: —¿Sabes? ¡Noah te salvó la vida tres veces! Era un Alfa de tan buen corazón... ¿Por qué no te moriste tú en su lugar? Todos en el funeral me miraban con reproche. Me echaron de la ceremonia; me quedé ahí, perdida y destrozada. Tres años después, con la ayuda de una bruja y su hechizo, regresé al pasado. Esta vez, tomé una decisión diferente. Pase lo que pase, nunca volveré a ser la Luna de Noah.
