Arielle Moore And Vinson Nightshade

Mae Cooper me acusa de forçar acônito goela abaixo dela, alegando que não consegue respirar e que sua loba está gravemente ferida, mal conseguindo se manter viva. Meu companheiro, Alfa Cole Grimaldi, e nossos dois filhotes decidem me dar uma lição, trancando minha irmã Ômega em uma enorme gaiola de prata e ameaçando banhá-la com acônito. Eu me debato violentamente e imploro para que a libertem, mas nada do que eu faça muda a decisão deles. Infelizmente, minha irmã morre e, com ela, o amor que um dia senti por eles também morre.

Als ich einen akuten Blinddarmdurchbruch hatte, waren meine Eltern, mein Bruder und sogar mein Verlobter nur damit beschäftigt, Maries Geburtstag zu feiern. Vor dem OP-Saal rief ich sie unzählige Male an, um jemanden für die Unterschrift unter die Einverständniserklärung zu erreichen. Doch sie lehnten alle brüsk ab. Mein Verlobter Lukas schickte mir nach dem Auflegen eine Nachricht: „Sophie, stell dich nicht so an. Heute ist Maries großer Tag. Alles andere regeln wir, wenn die Feier vorbei ist.“ Ich legte das Handy weg und unterschrieb ruhig selbst die Einverständniserklärung. Das war das neunundneunzigste Mal, dass sie mich wegen Marie im Stich gelassen hatten. Also würde ich sie auch nicht mehr brauchen. Ihre Bevorzugung machte mich nicht mehr traurig. Stattdessen erfüllte ich ihnen jeden Wunsch. Sie dachten alle, ich sei endlich vernünftig geworden. Aber sie ahnten nicht, dass ich für immer gehen würde

I, Elena Rossi, was diagnosed with acute kidney injury a year ago. I need a kidney transplant to survive. My fiance, Dario Ajello, is the Don of the mafia family, and he looks everywhere to find a suitable kidney donor for me. As it turns out, my younger stepsister, Lucia Rossi, is the only person who is eligible to be my kidney donor. However, she refuses to take the five million dollars Dario offers her as compensation. Instead, she makes a ridiculous demand—that Dario pretend to be her boyfriend for an entire month. I am all against it. I would rather die than agree to her conditions in order to receive her kidney. Dario promises me that he won't fulfill her demands, but I soon find out that he still has agreed to be Lucia's boyfriend for a month. After learning the truth, I decide to give up on my treatment and silently make arrangements for my passing. That is because I know that Lucia will never donate her kidney to me, even if Dario fulfills his side of the obligations.

I've been in a relationship with my older brother's best friend, Alpha Alexander Parker, for seven years. But there's a twist—this relationship is a secretive one. After having too much moonshine to drink one day, Alexander tells me drunkenly, "Willow, Stella is with pup now. If she doesn't have a mate, she'll get exiled out of the pack by the elders. Is it okay if I give her the Luna position for now?" In a calm and docile tone, I reply, "Okay." In my previous life, I didn't agree to Alexander's suggestion. I also insisted on holding the mating ceremony with him. Meanwhile, Stella Lockhart's belly continued to grow as weeks passed. In the end, she couldn't conceal it anymore. The enraged elders eventually cast her out of the pack. After Stella was gone, Alexander no longer came home, nor did he speak a word to me. I knew that he blamed me for everything. Some time later, I died from overwhelming guilt and depression. When I was about to close my eyes, I saw Alexander rushing into my room in alarm. Stella, who was supposed to be cast out of the pack, trailed behind him with a pup in her arms. That was when I finally realized that while Alexander was Stella's savior, he was never the most suitable mate for me. Now that I'm reborn, I don't turn his suggestion down. Instead, I decide to cut off all ties with him so that he and Stella can live happily ever after.

On my way home from picking wild berries in the woods, I see my mate, Ethan Volkov, feeding our pups roast chicken. His childhood sweetheart, Zoe Hathaway, is snuggling next to them. While chatting with Ethan about her experiences studying on the northern grasslands, she entertains the children. My five-year-old daughter is happily swinging her legs as she holds out a piece of roast chicken to Zoe, while My son carefully wipes the grease off Zoe's hands. Ethan never once looks away from Zoe. It is as if he only has eyes for her. Seeing my beloved mate and the pups I've tirelessly raised so attached to another she-wolf leaves me devastated. I draft a Bond Breaking Agreement, give up custody of the children, and leave. Pursue the herbal research career that I gave up for my family Yet later, the always calm and composed Ethan loses his composure. My daughter Katrina and my son James search everywhere for me, openly expressing their love and begging me to come home.

The Rossi mafia family followed an ancestral rule. Before marriage, the heir received one chance each year to draw lots. Drawing a fortunate lot meant he could choose his own spouse and avoid an arranged marriage. Dante Rossi drew an unfortunate lot for five consecutive years, and I, who had been dating him for seven years, never managed to marry him. This year marked the sixth year. I overheard his conversation with Marco Valentino, the Underboss. "Mr. Rossi, you drew a fortunate lot again." Dante's voice carried an unprecedented coldness. "Same as always, switch it to an unfortunate lot." Marco hesitated, then tried to persuade him. "Mr. Rossi, you've switched it for five years straight. Aren't you worried Celia will leave? Celia's the most beautiful woman in Nopales. Half the men in the city are chasing her." Dante said with absolute certainty, "She won't. Celia loves me too much. She won't marry anyone else. "Years ago, Livia's father died saving me. His dying wish was for me to stay by her side for five years. After this year ends, I'll give Celia a grand wedding as compensation." My last shred of hope died after I heard those words. Dante probably did not know that the Rossi family had one final ancestral rule. If the heir failed to draw a fortunate lot six times, he would lose the right to choose his own marriage. Moreover, I would soon be marrying someone else.

When my appendix bursts, my parents, my brother, and even my fiancé are all too busy celebrating my sister's birthday. I'm outside the operating room, frantically calling every family member I can think of to sign the consent form, but every call is either ignored or hung up on. After hanging up on me, my fiancé, Joel Graham, texts back. "Sophie, stop being dramatic. It's Yvette's 18th birthday today. Whatever it is can wait until after the party." I quietly set my phone down and sign the consent form myself. It's the ninety-ninth time they've chosen Yvette Norton, my sister, over me. This time, I choose not to care. I'll stop letting their favoritism hurt me. Instead, I'll do everything they ask of me without complaint. They'll all think I've finally learned to be obedient, and they'll never realize that I'm preparing to leave them for good.

Tiga hari sebelum pernikahan, Arven didatangi oleh sahabat masa kecilnya yang kembali ke tanah air bersama ibunya yang mengidap penyakit mematikan. Dia ingin menikah dengan Arven demi menunaikan wasiat terakhir ibunya. Di kehidupan sebelumnya, aku menentang keras. Pada akhirnya, Arven menolak permintaan sahabat kecilnya, Nyra. Sesuai rencana, Arven melangkah ke pelaminan bersamaku. Namun, Nyra muncul di lokasi pernikahan sambil memeluk foto mendiang ibunya dan menuduh Arven tak berperasaan. Arven menyuruh para pengawal mengusirnya dan pernikahan kami pun tetap berlangsung. Akan tetapi pada malam pertama pernikahan, dia tidak pulang semalaman. Setelah itu, setiap malam kami tidur terpisah. Dia lebih memilih mabuk berat daripada menyentuhku. Ketika aku bertanya alasannya, dia berkata dengan sorot mata yang tampak buram karena alkohol. "Aeris, setiap kali melihatmu, aku selalu teringat tatapan putus asa Nyra, juga wajah mendiang ibunya .... Aku menyesal!" Aku pun jatuh sakit karena kesedihan dan meninggal dunia. Saat membuka mata kembali, aku kembali ke hari ketika Arven mengatakan ingin mengadakan pernikahan untuk Nyra. Di kehidupan ini, aku langsung menyetujui permintaannya. Menatap punggungnya yang pergi dengan wajah penuh kebahagiaan, aku menelpon rumah dan berkata, "Kak, aku setuju dengan perjodohan keluarga. Atur saja pernikahannya tiga hari lagi."

Depois que o irmão mais velho de Leo Carter morreu, a mãe dele propôs que ele se casasse com Ariel Sullivan, a viúva grávida do falecido. Leo recusou. — Fawn é a minha vida. — A voz dele soou fria, e o ar ao redor pareceu mais denso. — Eu preferia abrir mão de herdar o posto do meu irmão como Don a trair a minha esposa. Eu fiquei profundamente comovida com aquela devoção… até o dia em que, por acaso, eu ouvi uma conversa entre Leo e a mãe dele. — A criança na barriga de Ariel é claramente sua. — A mãe dele disparou, cortante. — Então por que você não vai se casar com ela? Leo soltou o ar devagar, e uma nuvem de fumaça escapou. O olhar dele se perdeu em algum ponto distante, indecifrável, como se nada ali o atingisse por completo. — Eu prometi à Ariel que deixaria meu irmão com um herdeiro. — A calma dele foi quase irritante, calculada demais. — Mas isso fica entre nós. Se a Fawn descobrir um dia… eu estou morto. A expressão da mãe dele escureceu, como se a paciência tivesse se partido. — E daí se ela descobrir? Ela nem pode ter filhos. — A voz dela veio carregada de desprezo. — Você vai acabar com a linhagem da família por causa dela? — Se ela descobrir, ela vai me deixar. — A frieza de Leo cortou como lâmina, perigosa. — E eu não sobrevivo sem ela. Se você quer um neto, então cale a boca. Eu me afastei cambaleando, como se tivesse levado um golpe. O sangue nas minhas veias foi esfriando aos poucos, até virar gelo. Leo me conhecia melhor do que qualquer um; ele sabia que, no meu mundo, amor não tolerava traição. Então, no instante em que ele me traiu, eu tomei a minha decisão. Eu iria embora.

After being reborn, I didn't stop my Alpha mate, Caden, from bringing home his childhood friend—Lilith. She was carrying a pup, and he wanted to take care of her. I didn't fight it. I broke the mate bond myself. Handed him exactly what he wanted. Set up every private moment between them. Then slipped out of their story. Because in my past life, even as I lay dying, Caden hated me for not letting Lilith stay with us while she was with pup. She lost it on the way out. Couldn't carry again. And Caden? He said once I was gone, he'd make it right. Be with her. Protect her. So this time, I let him. Gave them everything. Gave them everything they wanted. So why did Caden lose his mind searching the world for me—begging me to come back?
