Bebé Adorable

Después de sufrir una caída mientras estaba embarazada, mi hijo de seis años, Antonio Juárez, no corrió a ayudarme. Cuando desperté, ya había perdido al bebé. Junto a mi cama del hospital, Antonio se escondía detrás de Manuel Juárez y murmuraba en voz baja: —¡Yo pensé que mamá otra vez se había desmayado a propósito para llamar mi atención! ¡Ya lo había hecho varias veces para que no saliera a jugar con Dulce! Manuel dijo con frialdad: —Siempre recurres a estas escenas para llamar la atención. Antonio ya ni siquiera confía en ti. Deberías pensar bien por qué prefiere estar con Dulce y no contigo. Sentí que el corazón se me hacía pedazos. Al día siguiente de que me dieron el alta, volví a casa, recogí todas mis cosas y solo dejé un acuerdo de divorcio y un documento en el que renunciaba a todo vínculo materno-filial con Antonio.

Estuve cinco años casada con el heredero de la familia Romano, la más poderosa del crimen organizado en Italia. Cada noche, me abrazaba y susurraba: —Solo dame un heredero, y le daré todo el imperio Romano. Pero nunca quedé embarazada, y la decepción del jefe de la mafia hacia mí crecía con cada mes que pasaba. Hasta que descubrí que mi esposo había estado cambiando a escondidas mi ácido fólico por pastillas anticonceptivas. Aún me tambaleaba por la furia cuando vi una publicación de su exnovia: una foto de ultrasonido. Su mensaje era dulce y presumido: —Diez semanas. Vincent dice que no puede esperar para conocer al bebé. Al ver la avalancha de felicitaciones, tomé una decisión. Busqué los datos de contacto de mi exnovio, aquel que había pasado los últimos cinco años intentando recuperarme, y le envié un solo mensaje: "Dame un mes. Luego voy contigo."

Por cinco anos, fui casada com o herdeiro da família Romano, a maior família criminosa da Itália. Todas as noites, ele me abraçava e sussurrava: — Só me dê um herdeiro, e eu lhe darei todo o império Romano. Mas eu nunca engravidei, e a decepção do Don comigo crescia a cada mês que passava. Até que descobri que meu marido vinha trocando secretamente meu ácido fólico por pílulas anticoncepcionais. Eu ainda estava em choque de raiva quando vi uma postagem da ex-namorada dele: uma foto de ultrassom. A legenda era doce e presunçosa: Dez semanas. Vincent disse que mal pode esperar para conhecer o bebê. Ao ver a enxurrada de felicitações, tomei minha decisão. Encontrei o contato do meu ex-namorado — o mesmo que passou os últimos cinco anos tentando me reconquistar. Enviei a ele uma única mensagem. [Dê-me um mês. Depois disso, eu vou com você.]

Whispers in the underworld mentioned that Jason Marino, heir to the Family with its hands in the cross-continental arms trade, supposedly loved women with slim waists. Since his recent return to the country, his eyes had landed on Sonia Stewart—sworn sister to my fiancé, Andy Black. When Andy found out, he disappeared for three whole days. I finally tracked him down in the Family's club, only to overhear a conversation that shattered my world. "I'm not just going to stand by and watch Sonia marry that playboy Jason," Andy was telling his lieutenant. "On the wedding day, you need to swap Sonia's wedding car with Leona's. No one must find out!" His lieutenant thumped his chest, swearing, "No problem, boss! I'll get it done. But... What about your fiancee, Leona?" Andy let out a confident laugh, as if he were in control of everything. "I'm the Don's hand-picked Consigliere. Jason knows Leona belongs to me, so he won't lay a finger on her. Once I've slept with Sonia, he'll have to give up on her. After that, we'll just send someone to pick Leona up. She won't suspect a thing. Instead, she'll be scared and trembling… Pathetic but adorable nonetheless. She'll come running right back to my arms!" Every word was like a bullet leaving holes in my heart, every tone tearing it apart. I stumbled away as fast as I could, praying they wouldn't hear the sound of my heart breaking. When Andy tried to pick me up according to his plan later on, he broke down.

After graduation, I spend a year interning with my mentor, a healer, out in the neutral lands—no packs, no laws, and no one to protect me. My brother, the Lycan Chairman of all werewolves, nearly loses his mind over it. He's terrified I'll fall for some Rogue and impulsively form a reckless mate bond. As such, he handpicks an arranged mate for me—Falcon Sterling, the Alpha of the strongest pack in Northmere. He's handsome and dangerous, a legendary figure. My brother orders me to come home for the mating ceremony, so I have no choice but to go pick out a Luna crown. At the jewelry shop, my eyes snap straight to a crown made of pure silver and covered in diamonds. Just as I reach out to take it, a sharp female voice cuts in. "I like the one she's holding. I'll take it. Hand it over." Before I can react, the clerk snatches the crown right out of my hands, nearly scraping my skin. I straighten up, forcing myself to stay calm. "Ever heard of 'first come, first served?' I saw it first. Is this how you do things here?" The she-wolf slowly turns toward me, casting me a long, mocking look. "This crown costs 300 thousand dollars. You sure you can afford it, peasant? I grew up with the Alpha of the Silvermoon pack, Falcon Sterling. Around here, I make the rules." I stare at her, almost laughing. Isn't that funny? Falcon just happens to be my arranged mate. I pull out my phone and press the call button. "Hey, Falcon. Your adorable childhood sweetheart just stole the Luna crown I'm supposed to wear for the mating ceremony. What do you think I should do about that?"

It happened on Thanksgiving Day. I was on my way to my girlfriend's house when a car slammed straight into mine. The road was deserted, not a single person was around. The doors were jammed shut from the impact, and flames were licking toward the engine. I fumbled for the safety hammer, only to find that someone had replaced it with a toy hammer shaped like a cartoon bear. Panicking, I called my girlfriend. But before she could even pick up, her ringtone started playing from the car that had just hit me. Luna Hill stepped out, hand in hand with her childhood sweetheart, Julian Ford. Julian put on a show of alarm. "Oh no, I'm such an idiot! My first time driving, and I already hit a car." When Luna saw that it was me in the crushed car, she quickly tried to calm him down. "It's fine. He probably did it on purpose." I pounded on the window, shouting for her. "Luna, the safety hammer's been switched out! Please, help me get out!" Julian burst into a grin. "Sebastian, that was me! The little bear hammer's adorable, isn't it?" Luna's face twisted in disgust. "You're fine. Stop being dramatic. Figure it out yourself." Thick smoke was billowing inside the car, and it was about to explode. I begged her to get me out. Julian chuckled. "Sebastian, are you cooking in there or what? That smoke's killing me!" He patted his stomach and said with a laugh, "Man, I'm starving. Luna, let's go home and eat." Luna hooked her arm through his and tossed a parting line over her shoulder. "Enough already. My parents are waiting for us to start dinner." Just as I was about to pass out from the smoke, I slammed my hand on the car's emergency button.

When Sarah is forced to accept the marriage proposal in place of Veronica, her half-sister, she never imagined the man to be Edward Huxley. Edward Huxley—formidable, most eligible billionaire bachelor in the country is infuriated when he discovers that it was the unknown, bland illegitimate Maxwell daughter that was in his bed, and not Veronica whom he had expected.

"Don't flatter yourself, Mr Huxley, I have no desire whatsoever to cross paths with you again." "You have quite the mouth on you now," he smirked. "But, that's no way to describe your first— the man who took your virginity.” “How dare you?” Sarah hissed angrily. Edward chuckled darkly. “Oh! but I would dare, Miss Tanner. You have no idea the things I am capable of doing." ************************************** Edward is astounded at the drastic change and can't help falling for the new Sarah. He sets out to win her heart and build a family with their children. But Sarah does not make it easy for him. "Please," he whispered. "Give us a chance. Give me a chance to make it right. I want you, Sarah. I want you now, Sarah Tanner. And I know that you feel something for me too." Would he succeed? Or is he already too late given the presence of the enigmatic Benicio, who is always beside Sarah, his eyes dripping with love and adoration.

En el hospital se armó un escándalo. Un familiar de un paciente agitaba un cuchillo como un loco y, por instinto, empujé a Bruno para apartarlo. Pero él, de un tirón, me agarró la mano y me puso enfrente... para proteger a su querida Celia. Así, la cuchillada fue directo a mi vientre. Y con eso, me arrancó a mi bebé, que apenas empezaba a vivir. Mis compañeros del hospital, con lágrimas en los ojos, intentaban llevarme de urgencia a la UCI, pero Bruno me jaló de la camilla con brusquedad. Con la voz dura y cortante, soltó: —¡Primero salven a Celia! Si a ella le pasa algo, los echo a todos. Los médicos se quedaron helados, llenos de indignación. —¡Estás loco, Bruno! —le gritó uno—. Celia solo tiene un rasguño, ¡tu esposa está mucho peor! Yo, con las manos apretando mi abdomen empapado en sangre, asentí lentamente. —Déjenlo así... Bruno... con esto que te devuelvo hoy, ya no te debo nada.

Meu marido, o Sr. Damien, me deu as pérolas de sua falecida esposa no meu aniversário e eu as usei no jantar. Meu enteado Leo, enfurecido, me jogou vinho tinto. Virei a piada da festa. — Vadia! — Ele falou com os dentes cerrados. — Acha que usar as joias da minha mãe te faz virar ela? Ele me encarou, seus olhos frios como gelo. E então ele gritou: — Saia da minha casa. Só que a mãe dele morreu quando ele ainda era um bebê. Eu que o criei. Alguém falou mal de mim pra ele. Disseram que eu matei a mãe dele. Agora ele acha que sou uma golpista que enganou o meu marido? Ele nunca me enxergou. Ele só enxergava o fantasma da Krista. Meu coração não partiu. Ele despedaçou. Eles não me amavam. Nunca se importaram. Então eu fui embora. Então por que, depois que finalmente fui embora, eles voltaram rastejando, implorando para eu voltar?
