Ace No Diamond

The owner of a small company gives me an expensive bag as a gift because I want to invest in his company, yet his wife mistakes me for a homewrecker. She and her entourage crash my engagement party and trash the place. "All homewreckers need to go to hell!" "Shameless women will always be shameless. Strip her so everyone online can see what she looks like!" "Share the livestream and like it, everyone! We'll disfigure her once we hit 500 thousand likes!" Not only does my fiancé refuse to help, but he even announces that the engagement is off. "A homewrecker doesn't deserve to marry me!" I repeatedly warn them not to act rashly, but they ignore me. So, I give them each a swift punch to the gut before stepping on the perpetrator's face. Then, I call my secretary. "Tell Mr. Lane that I'm pulling out of the investment. Also, call the police and my lawyer. I've been robbed and insulted in public—I want the culprits to go to jail for this!" My fiancé regrets everything and asks me for a reconciliation, but I kick him aside. "Get lost! I'm not dumpster!"

For twenty-four years, Alpha Draegon longed for a son, but the Moon Goddess had other plans. When his wife bore a daughter, he defied fate and raised her as a boy, hiding her true identity from the world. On Valen’s eighteenth birthday, the feared Lycanis warriors descend upon their kingdom, demanding a male from every family—or war will follow. To protect her secret, Draegon prepares to offer himself in her place. But before dawn breaks, Valen is gone. She has surrendered herself to the Lycanis. Taken to the High Dark Mountain—a cursed land where no man has ever survived—Valen learns the terrifying truth. The Lycanis are on the brink of extinction, and the men taken captive are meant for one thing: to breed. The strongest among them will become warriors, the weakest will become slaves. To her horror, Valen is both strong and dangerously beautiful, making her the most desired among the Lycanis females. But one man’s attention is deadlier than all their King. A monstrous warrior feared by all, he chooses Valen as his personal guard, unwittingly drawn to the one person who holds his fate in her hands. Valen struggles to conceal the truth because he is bound by duty, tormented by forbidden dreams, and forced to endure his darkest indulgences. Yet, secrets have a way of unraveling. And when war erupts, a single spear thrust reveals the one truth that could change everything—Valen is no man. Now, the King must decide: will he cast her aside as a traitor, or will he claim the only soul that can soothe his madness?

No dia do casamento, Afonso entrou tarde no salão, de braço dado com sua primeira paixão, vestindo o traje de padrinho. O terno do noivo? Jogado de qualquer jeito no sofá, num claro sinal de desordem. — Afonso, hoje não é o nosso casamento... — Júlia. — Ele interrompeu, com uma voz fria, cheia de aviso enquanto olhava para mim firme. — Você sabe muito bem o que pode e o que não pode dizer. Seja madura, não me faça te odiar. Só pude soltar um sorriso amargo. Tudo isso aconteceu porque a primeira paixão de Afonso perdeu a memória. Desde então, todos ao redor entraram nesse teatro coletivo para ajudá-la a recuperar as lembranças. Ninguém podia permitir que ela se sentisse perturbada. Para manter a paz, Afonso até tentou me consolar, aproximando-se para um abraço e murmurando ao meu ouvido: — Juju, você entende meu lado, certo? Acenei em silêncio, e fui capaz de me desprender de tudo ao segurar a mão do verdadeiro padrinho e seguir de cabeça erguida rumo ao altar. No entanto, mais tarde, enquanto eu, grávida, fazia compras no shopping, Afonso apareceu diante de mim, com os olhos cheios de lágrimas. — Juju, não estávamos apenas atuando todo esse tempo? Como você pôde engravidar?

Mi hermano menor y yo sufrimos un accidente. A mí se me reventó el corazón y necesitaba cirugía urgente. Pero mi mamá, que fue la directora del hospital, reunió a todos los doctores en la habitación de mi hermano para hacerle un chequeo completo, a pesar de que solo tenía rasguños menores. Le supliqué a mi mamá que me salvara, pero ella, con fastidio, me gritó: —¿No puedes dejar de competir por atención por una vez? ¡¿Acaso no entiendes que tu hermano casi se lesiona el hueso?! Al final, morí solo, en un rincón donde nadie me encontró. Pero cuando se enteró de mi muerte, mi mamá, quien más me odiaba, enloqueció.

By a twist of fate, my husband, Morgan Lancaster, and I perish together in a sea of flames. When I open my eyes again, I find myself back on the very day we received our marriage certificate. In my previous life, we appeared to be a loving couple in the eyes of others, yet Morgan refused to share a bedroom with me the entire time we were married. It was only moments before our deaths that I discovered I was merely a substitute for his first love and that he had chosen to remain chaste for her for life. After getting another chance at life, neither of us mentions the past. Instead, by mutual understanding, we file for divorce that same day. From that point on, we go our separate ways. Eight years later, Morgan shows up arm in arm with his childhood sweetheart, Freya Springer, at a business summit. He is now a prominent and celebrated rising star in the business world. Seeing me dressed in a plain outfit, he approaches with a glass of champagne. His tone drips with mockery as he asks, "Ms. Smith, even if you still have feelings for me, there's no need to dress like a waitress just to get close to me. You aren't hoping for a reconciliation, are you?" I say nothing and simply smile as I wave at someone in the distance. My son, Theo Coltrane, toddles over and tugs at the hem of my shirt. "Mommy, Daddy says that he's tired from waiting so long. When are you coming home with us?" The smile on Morgan's face freezes instantly, and he nearly loses his grip on the glass in his hand.

On the day of my mate-bonding ceremony, someone threw a corrosive potion at me, leaving my face disfigured. In front of everyone, Oliver Fielding—my fated mate, the one promised to me for eight years—coldly rejected me and claimed the Alpha's younger stepsister, Isabella Dorsey, instead. That same night, Alpha Lucas Dorsey placed a moonstone ring in my hand. "If Oliver won't claim you, then I will. And I'll make sure you get justice." He brushes his fingers over my corroded, scarred cheek and whispers tenderly, "Evelyn, even in such a state, you're more beautiful than anyone else." Since he claimed me, Lucas has treated me like something sacred. He remembers every little thing I love and hate. Even when the painful memories overwhelm me and I lash out in panic, he just presses a kiss to my palm, his pain lingering in the touch. How could I not be completely lost to him? However, three years later, I overhear Lucas speaking with his assassin outside the council chamber. "That silver-laced corrosive potion I had you prepare—was the dosage correct?" The assassin hesitates before replying, "Alpha, if you care about Evelyn so much, why would you—" "Isabella wants Oliver, so I'll help her by removing the obstacle—Evelyn." He runs his thumb over the herbal sachet I made him and murmurs, "It's just… I've grown strangely reluctant to let Evelyn go. She's my pawn, after all." I wipe away my tears. If I'm nothing more than an obstacle to him, I'll save him the trouble and walk away on my own.

Me casé en secreto con Don Matteo. Cada vez que se acostaba con su amor de la infancia, me prometía una boda de verdad, frente a las Cinco Familias. Durante cinco años, Matteo me lo prometió noventa y nueve veces. Y noventa y nueve veces, me dejó plantada en el altar. La primera vez, el gato de exposición premiado de Cecilia murió. Para consolarla, pospuso la boda por tres meses. Yo me quedé sola en el altar, con los ojos enrojecidos, intentando calmar a los ancianos de la familia. La segunda vez, Cecilia hizo un berrinche en un casino y destrozó un jarrón antiguo valorado en cien millones. Él desvió el jet privado destinado a la boda y voló toda la noche para ir a arreglar su desastre. Y así cada vez, justo antes de nuestra boda, su amor de la infancia tenía algún tipo de emergencia. Yo lloré. Grité. Incluso llegué a apuntarle con un arma a la cabeza. Pero Matteo solo me empujaba contra la pared y me hacía callar con un beso frío y rudo. —Ella es solo un polvo. Tú eres la señora Falcone. Ten un poco de maldita clase. Después de la vez número noventa y nueve, finalmente me harté. Deslicé los papeles sobre la mesa. La tinta aún estaba fresca, con el sello de la familia Falcone estampado al final. —Nuestro matrimonio, nuestra alianza… se terminó.

Era o nosso sétimo aniversário de vínculo. No entanto, Xavier Ashton, o Alfa que controlava tudo, trouxe para casa sua amante grávida. Durante os últimos sete anos, ele me venerou. Beijava minha mão na frente de todos e dizia que eu era sua lua, a única Luna de sua vida. E agora, sua mão repousava sobre a barriga de outra loba, como se exibisse um milagre. — Ela está carregando meu primeiro filhote. Você tem o poder da Deusa da Lua. Quero que a abençoe. Além disso, ela tem tido pesadelos durante a gravidez, então ficará com o quarto principal. Fiquei paralisada, quase convencida de que tinha ouvido errado. — Você está brincando? Aquele é o meu quarto! Ele ergueu o olhar, o tom carregado de advertência. — A partir de hoje, é dela. A raiva quase me fez rir. Minha voz tremeu, mas estava clara. — Você engravidou uma loba Ômega insignificante e a trouxe para dentro da nossa casa? Xavier Ashton, você enlouqueceu de vez! — Não vou repetir isso uma terceira vez. Saia agora. Sua aura ficou gélida em um instante. A pressão de Alfa veio direto contra mim, fazendo minha loba interior choramingar. Ele achou que eu me submeteria obedientemente, mas não sabia que eu já havia arrumado minhas malas semanas antes, quando recebi o vídeo do caso dele. Enquanto eu caminhava em direção à porta da frente, ouvi-o zombar atrás de mim: — Deixem ela fazer birra. Em menos de três dias, vai voltar rastejando. Os membros da alcateia riram às minhas costas, já apostando em quantos dias eu aguentaria desta vez. No entanto, o carro particular enviado para me buscar já estava esperando à porta. Desta vez, eu estava cortando relações com ele de vez.
