Anne Of The Thousand Days นิยาย & เรื่องราว

Dark circles had formed beneath my eyes, and my face looked thinner than ever. It seemed I'd lost weight because of this illness, too. I ran a hand over my shrinking waist and studied my reflection once more. Compared to Lea, I looked downright pitiful. It's okay, Anna. You only need to hold on for a hundred days. I tried to reassure myself. But deep down, I was scared. Looking at my condition now, it wasn't impossible that I had less than a hundred days left to live. If that happened, would I still be able to accomplish my goal?

“You must be dreaming.” I pointed at myself. “Me? Trying to impress you?” I scoffed. “You’re not even that handsome, and you’re already this delusional.” I laughed coldly. “If you’re not drunk, then maybe you’re high.” His eyes blazed with fury. “Mark my words,” he said quietly. “One day you’ll fall in love with me. Maybe not now… but someday.” His confidence made me laugh even harder. “Oh, Mr. Knight,” I said mockingly. “I admire the confidence.”

"But I have one condition before I sign this." He let out a harsh, cynical laugh. "There it is. I knew you wouldn't make this easy. What is it, Nora? More shares? The yacht?" "I don't want your money," I said, meeting his gaze head-on. "I want one hundred days." Silas frowned, the arrogant smirk faltering for a fraction of a second. "Excuse me?" "One hundred days," I repeated, enunciating every syllable clearly. "Starting tomorrow. For the next one hundred days, I want you to be a real husband."

“The number you are calling is invalid. Please check the number and try again…” For what feels like the thousandth time, I hear that phrase and still can’t believe what’s happening. Sixteen fucking days have passed since that evening, and Ann has vanished like she fell through the earth… or dissolved into thin air. She didn’t answer my calls, and soon after, she deleted her number altogether.

Thirty days. One month. A single, heartbeat-stopping wager. Benjamin Parker was the sun. A golden-haired scholarship recruit with flour on his hands and a heart that he wore—vulnerable and beating—on his sleeve. He spent weeks chasing the school’s "Ice Prince," offering handmade tarts and a smile that could melt the coldest winter. He thought his persistence finally paid off when Jonathan Hayes—the obsidian-eyed, terrifyingly beautiful heir to a tech empire—pinned him against the school gates and claimed him in front of everyone. But the "Golden Romance" was a lie from the very first kiss. Jonathan didn't choose Benjamin because of his heart; he chose him because he was a convenient t

Once the internet had it, there was no stopping it. Anne spent most of the day in tears, overwhelmed by the sheer volume of hate being directed at her. She couldn’t escape it—it was everywhere. Every time she checked her phone, there were more headlines, more nasty comments, more accusations. People who didn’t know the first thing about her were calling her a gold digger, a con artist, a fraud. It was relentless.

Teddy burst out laughing and asked her, "You want to reject me?" Anne gulped and replied, "Yes. It's been up to a month, and until now, you haven't touched me, even though Charlotte isn't present with us. How would I become pregnant or carry your pups if you do not mate with me? All my age mates are married and mothers now, while I'm still single. My younger sister is already mated to her mate who loves her, despite being weaker than me. And yet, I have the Alpha as my mate and am still single. I want a rejection, Alpha!" Anne raised her voice at Teddy, and his fist clenched as his gaze darkened. He approached her and grabbed her by her arm, swiveling her around to face him.

Everything seemed to be hanging on a thin thread over the cliff. "I'm finished! Omo! I am so dead. What will I do? Nikki, help me. Everyone is going to watch that video…1.5 million…yeah Sophie has followers and the blogs and everybody." I began to hyperventilate, my throat seems to be shrinking. Breathing was getting harder.

"No… I didn't do anything wrong!" Cold all over, I trembled as I tried to pull away from him, only to realize my feet were trapped by something. Pulling back the blanket, I froze. Heavy iron chains were locked around my ankles, making it nearly impossible to move. Jared's voice turned icy. "I know you won't admit your mistake so easily. So, you'll stay in this room until Melody has the baby. Then, I'll let you out." Three days without food, combined with all the pent-up emotions I had been holding back, a rush of metallic taste surged up my throat as I coughed out a mouthful of blood from my mouth.

We emerged on the last floor and upon reaching the door, a lady stood up and said "Good morning Alpha Jacob, you have a visitor waiting for you inside." "Is it the lady from yesterday?" He asked. Amani was here yesterday? "Yes, Alpha. She’s been waiting for an hour now." "Okay." He said as he walked to the door, just as he was about to enter, he said "Wait for me outside." I scoffed "What part of, I want to spend my time with you, didn’t you understand?" I folded my arms against my chest "I’m not waiting anywhere I’m coming with you." "Just stay outside please." He insisted
