Any Witch Way

Lena Clermont fell hard for her dad's friend, Andrew Rohan—twelve years older. The first time she saw him, he was all sharp suits and broad shoulders, effortlessly standing out. He smiled, patted her head, and handed her a princess dress. Fast forward to twenty. He got drugged at a banquet. She wore that same dress, offering herself as the cure.

"Are you sure you want to change the bride's name to Jasmine Shaw, Quinn?" Quinn Sullivan's voice was resolute. "Yes, I'm sure. Do as I say." She sat in silence for a long time after hanging up. She recalled what she saw after her engagement party. Her fiancé had his arms wrapped around another woman in a swaying car. He whispered sweet nothings into her ear, looking like he couldn't bear to leave. Quinn didn't understand. She and Nicholas York had gone through so much to get to marriage. How could he cheat on her? Well, it didn't matter. She was willing to give him her blessings since he was in love with another woman. He could marry someone else, then. She would give him the wedding of his dreams.

Pada ulang tahun pernikahan kami yang ke-7, aku menindih tubuh Lionel, suamiku yang adalah seorang mafia, dan menciumnya dengan penuh hasrat. Di tengah keintiman yang membara, aku merogoh saku gaun sutra mahalku dan mengenggam test pack yang aku sembunyikan di sana. Aku berencana untuk memberitahunya kabar kehamilanku tengah malam nanti. Maryos, tangan kanan Lionel, menatapnya sambil tersenyum menggoda dan bertanya kepadanya dalam bahasa Iltan, "Bos, bidadari kecil barumu itu ... si Sofia .... Gimana rasanya?" Seketika itu juga, Lionel tertawa dengan begitu kencang, membuat bulu kudukku meremang. Lionel pun menjawab, tentunya dalam bahasa Iltan, "Rasanya seperti ... seperti buah persik yang belum matang. Segar dan lembut." Tangannya masih mengelus pinggangku dengan lembut, tetapi tatapannya tidak tertuju padaku. "Ingat, ini rahasia kita. Kalau istriku sampai tahu, habislah aku." Para anak buahnya tertawa. Mereka bersulang, berjanji untuk tidak membocorkan apa-apa. Kesabaranku perlahan menipis, digantikan dengan darahku yang mulai mendidih. Mereka semua tidak tahu bahwa nenekku berasal dari Pulau Sagara. Aku memahami semua isi pembicaraan mereka. Aku berusaha menahan emosi, mempertahankan senyum sempurna seorang istri pemimpin keluarga mafia. Meski begitu, aku tetap tak bisa membuat tanganku yang memegang gelas sampanye berhenti gemetar. Emosiku bisa meledak kapan saja dan aku tidak mau membuat kegaduhan. Jadi, untuk mengalihkan pikiranku, aku menyalakan ponsel, membuka undangan proyek riset medis internasional pribadi beberapa hari lalu, lalu menekan tombol "Terima". Dalam tiga hari, aku akan menghilang dari dunia Lionel, selamanya.

The Alpha King, who was rumored to be ugly and violent, and hides his face under the Golden masquerade mask, sent a letter to my Alpha father. ["Dear Alpha Quinn, I'm writing to inform you that your third daughter, Etizia, is my mate. Send her to me, or face the destruction of your Pack. Sincerely, Alpha Nox.”] I was forced to marry the ugly Alpha King. But to my surprise, the cold Alpha King treated me kindly and with care. How did an Omega wolf like me manage to tame the beast of all beasts? I thought everything was doing fine. However, the Alpha King’s brother turned out to be the handsome wolf who rejected me in the past. Can I stay loyal with my faceless Alpha King husband when my brother-in-law wanted me back as his mate? ** ** The Alpha King leaned in close and whispered in my ear, "Are you still considering escaping from me?" I replied, knowing the futility of my answer, "It doesn't matter what I say, you'll never allow me to run." He gently lifted my chin and smiled. "That's the right answer, my Luna. I can shower you with kindness, but I won't tolerate you turning your back on me. NOT AGAIN." With a swift motion, he removed his golden mask, revealing his true identity. My eyes widened in shock as I recognized him.

My best friend's brother and I have been dating for half a year, and she has no clue. My best friend drags me out on Christmas for a singles' night out. Unexpectedly, we see her brother, Chris Lambert, holding hands and kissing a girl under the fireworks. "Damn, Chris finally got the school belle!" She looks thrilled and pulls me forward to say hi. Chris awkwardly rubs his nose and introduces me to his girlfriend, "This is my sister, and the one beside her is… sort of like my sister too." I smile silently. We have held hands and kissed, yet now, I am just sort of like his sister.

At our wedding ceremony, the four-year-old nephew of my fiance, Michael Thompson, suddenly rushes onto the stage. He grabs his uncle's hand and cries, "Daddy, why are you marrying another woman? Don't you want me and Mommy anymore?" Seeing this, Lisa Jenner quickly runs over to intervene. She sounds apologetic, but her words are slightly provocative. "I'm so sorry, Sarah. Danny lost his father when he was little and has always seen Michael as his dad. He didn't mean to cause trouble." Even Michael remains completely calm as he picks up Danny. He explains to me, "Before David passed away, he made me promise to take care of his widow and child. I only let Danny call me 'Daddy' so he could have a normal childhood. You understand, right?" As I look at the three of them, standing there like the perfect family, I laugh coldly and rip off my veil. "This poor child has been through so much. How could I possibly steal his dad away? "You know what? Why don't I just let Lisa take my place up here? Then you can have your happy little family of three."
