Cumplía años y mi esposo, Don Damián, me regaló el collar de perlas de su difunta esposa. Me lo puse para la cena. Mi hijastro, León, enfurecido, me arrojó vino tinto encima. Fui el hazmerreír de toda la fiesta. —¡Maldita! —me dijo entre dientes—. ¿Acaso crees que por ponerte las joyas de mi mamá vas a poder reemplazarla? Me clavó una mirada gélida. Y luego gritó: —¡Lárgate de mi casa! Pero su madre murió cuando él era un bebé. Fui yo quien lo crio. Alguien le metió cizaña. Le dijeron que yo había matado a su madre. Ahora cree que soy una víbora que engatusó a su padre. ¿Y su padre? ¿Mi esposo? Él nunca me vio realmente. Solo veía el fantasma de Cristal. No se me rompió el corazón… ¡se hizo añicos! No me amaron. Ni siquiera me tomaron en cuenta. Así que me fui. Entonces, ¿por qué, cuando por fin me había ido, volvieron de rodillas, suplicándome que volviera?

Mi esposo era un hombre de emociones intensas. Para mantener contenta a su hermana adoptiva, le asignaba millones cada año para que los gastara en lujos. Se preocupaba por su bienestar. Cada noche se sentaba a su lado, asegurándose de que se calmara. Luego, cuando me dispararon y estaba sangrando abundantemente, necesitando atención médica inmediata, él permaneció completamente indiferente. En cambio, envió a todo el equipo médico a atender a su angustiada hermana adoptiva. Usé las pocas fuerzas que me quedaban para llamar a mi esposo. La llamada se conectó. Su voz, teñida de irritación, respondió: —¿Qué pasa ahora? Estás bien, perfectamente saludable. ¿Por qué necesitarías un doctor? —Escucha, Sofía me necesita. Los recursos médicos de nuestra familia son limitados. Para cosas menores, simplemente aguanta. Mi corazón se hundió, como si se hubiera convertido en hielo. Él realmente era un hombre de emociones intensas. Solo que la persona por la que de verdad se preocupaba nunca había sido yo.

En mi vida anterior, el día que mi hermana Elsa y yo asistimos a la ceremonia de apareamiento, le salvé la vida a un príncipe de la Sangre que estaba en la ruina: Sebastián de Montoya. Para pagarme el favor, en cuanto regresó a su clan, Sebastián anunció frente a todos que yo sería su esposa. Un año después, traje al mundo a un heredero de sangre pura, el único capaz de reclamar todo el linaje. Ese día, loco de felicidad durante su coronación, selló un pacto de sangre conmigo. Me nombró su reina y su compañera eterna. Desde ese momento, todos los clanes tuvieron que arrodillarse ante mí. Elsa, en cambio, prefirió casarse con el Alfa de una manada de lobos y terminó siendo una más del montón, la amante más insignificante de todas. La envidia la volvió loca: durante un ritual de luna llena, me empujó al abismo, dejándome morir destrozada en la oscuridad. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, me encontré de nuevo en el día del rito. Vi a Elsa correr desesperada hacia donde el príncipe estaba por caer, y ahí lo entendí todo: ella también había renacido. Pobre Elsa... no sabía en lo que se metió. Ser la prometida del príncipe es la parte fácil. El verdadero reto era ganarse su corazón... y sobrevivir para darle un hijo de su propia sangre.

Antes de la boda, la mujer que había sido el gran amor de su vida fue obligada a casarse con un famoso "mujeriego"para proteger a su familia. Mi prometido Arturo, incapaz de verla sufrir, fue a interrumpir la ceremonia. Ese mismo día, frente a todos, obtuvieron el certificado de matrimonio. Toda la ciudad de Marseah esperaba con ansias el escándalo entre mi familia y los Gómez. Pero al día siguiente, el único hijo de los Gómez apareció en la entrada de mi empresa, conduciendo su Bugatti con descaro: —Tu prometido se llevó a la mujer con la que iba a casarme. Quiero que pagues esa deuda casándote conmigo, es justo, ¿no? Al mirar su melena roja y desafiante, sonreí con calma: —Sí, muy justo.

Valeria Romano tenía diecinueve años cuando asesinaron a su padre. Durante cinco años entrenó, se sacrificó y derramó sangre... construyendo toda su vida en torno a un nombre: Lorenzo De Luca. El rey de la mafia que ella creía que había dado la orden. Cuando por fin tiene la oportunidad de enfrentarse a él, no huye. La sienta y le muestra una fotografía. El responsable de la muerte de su padre nunca fue Lorenzo. Fue su tío Marco. El hombre que le dio el nombre equivocado la mañana después del asesinato y la vio perseguir al objetivo equivocado durante cinco años mientras reconstruía su imperio sobre la tumba de su padre. Lorenzo le propone un matrimonio por contrato... una alianza estratégica que los pone a ambos a tiro de piedra de Marco antes de que este entierre la verdad para siempre. Valeria acepta. No porque confíe en él. Porque Marco Romano se acaba de convertir en su verdadero objetivo. Lo que sigue es una carrera contrarreloj. Espías dentro de la mansión. Un testigo comprado. Un hombre muerto que resulta estar muy vivo. Dos personas que se unieron como enemigos, construyendo lentamente algo para lo que ninguno tiene nombre. Y una cumbre donde Valeria debe presentarse ante las cinco familias gobernantes con cinco años de verdad... y finalmente hacer que valga la pena. Marco va a una celda. La guerra termina. Pero la guerra deja huellas. La verdadera pregunta que impulsa esta historia nunca es si Valeria puede destruir al hombre que mató a su padre. Es si puede sobrevivir a la persona en la que se convirtió en el proceso... y si el hombre con el que se casó para ganar una guerra es el mismo hombre por el que vale la pena quedarse cuando termine.

On the day of the wedding, Galen Shaw forces me to crack walnuts with my bare hands for his so-called female buddy. My expression goes cold, and I refuse outright. "My hands are for holding a scalpel, not cracking walnuts for her!" He only chuckles and orders someone to hold me down. Then, he glues the walnuts to my palms himself. One by one, he slams them against the ground. "You cheated while studying medicine. Now that you've married me, forget about ever being a doctor again!" I grit my teeth through the pain. My fingers are aching, but I try to explain. "I went abroad to study medicine for you!" His so-called female buddy sneers in a shrill voice. "All that talk about the Shaw family's hereditary disease is nonsense! Galen has been perfectly healthy for over 20 years. Don't tell me you just want another excuse to cozy up with your precious senior?" The moment those words leave her lips, the faint thought of having someone bandage my hand disappears. A shadow crosses Galen's face. "Looks like you haven't learned your lesson!" He throws me into the basement and locks me there for three days. By the time I crawl out, my hands are completely ruined. Later, when Galen's hereditary disease finally surfaces, the doctor tries to comfort him. "This disease may be terminal, but there is still a way. Dr. Robinson has just returned from overseas. She's the only one in the world who can perform this surgery. "I hear that she's your wife."

And if you have a problem with that, take it up with the man who marked me. Any attempt or any threat to my life will be taken as treason and I will tear that person’s head apart with my bare hands.” I said, my voice sharp and low yet sure they could all hear me. “You can tell them, you can tell them all what I said and if anyone has anything to say about that, they can find me in the king's office.” … This is book 1 of ‘The Royally screwed’ series.
