My best friend passed away from postpartum hemorrhage. Ethan said he didn't want his child to grow up without a mother. To repay my best friend for saving my life years ago, I became the child's mother. I gave up my career and ambitions, willingly becoming a full-time housewife. For seven years, I cared for both father and son as if it were my life's mission. Yet, he always remained distant, his tenderness surfacing only in the quiet intensity of late nights. Afterward, he would hand me a few birth control pills. On New Year's Eve, my throat felt strange. I swallowed the pills, only to immediately vomit them all out. Ethan was furious and accused me of harboring ulterior motives. As punishment, he locked me outside on the open balcony in the rain. Our son came running with an umbrella in hand. But he walked past me without a glance and handed it to the housekeeper who was heading out. In that moment, I made up my mind—I would leave.

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.

My daughter, Heather Miller, comes home in an injured state from her high school one day. Apparently, someone has been spreading rumors about her cheating in her exams, stealing from others, and even shamelessly serving as an old geezer's mistress! I spend a fortune hiring a hacker in order to locate the source of those rumors. To my horror, my best friend, Sylvia Lister, is actually the one behind this scheme! Just as I'm about to confront her angrily, I suddenly see rows of comments occupying my vision. "The male lead's mom really is smart! She taught him how to come up with rumors just to slander the female lead! Now that no one wants to approach her, he can have her all to himself!" "The mother-and-son pair really are sneaky… and I like it! The female lead is really blessed to have them in her life!" "If my guess is correct, the female lead will get expelled from the school next week. She'll get locked up by the male lead and his mom in their home, which is the start of her amazing bedroom life!"

Jusqu'à mes dix ans j'ai été la fille la plus heureuse du monde. J'étais insouciante. Je prenais du plaisir à aller partout. Les gens que je rencontrai à San Francisco n'avait aucun préjugé sur ma couleur de peau. Que j'ai la peau blanche, des cheveux crépus(enfin plus bouclés que crépus quand même) et blonds, des yeux tirant sur le vert et tout ça avec un père noir, une mère et un frère métissés n'a jamais fait tâche. Jusqu'à ce que j'arrive à Dakar C'est dans la ville où j'aurai dû me sentir plus chez moi où je me suis sentie étrangère et non désirée. Les gens en dehors du cercle familial me regardaient bizarrement. J'ai découvert la méchanceté gratuite et la mise en quarantaine alors que je ne suis porteuse d'aucun virus mortel ni autre maladie grave. Juste parce que je suis albinos je mérite qu'on me traite de la sorte. À la limite je préférai être mise en quarantaine parce que quand on me parle c'est pour me traiter de sorcière, de Djinn, d’être maléfique et je ne sais quoi d’autres. On a même accusé ma famille d'avoir pactisé avec le diable pour être riche et que j'étais le résultat de ce pacte. Devant moi certains parents ne se gênaient pas d’interdire leurs enfants de m’approcher. Au début ça me touchait mais maintenant ça ne me fait plus rien. . Ce qui est bien dans mon cas c’est que j’ai tout ce que je veux. Il suffit juste de demander.

At the pack's festival, a witch hands me a crystal orb that reveals the truth. When I ask "why," she says she was entrusted to deliver it and reminds me only to use it when I am alone. As the image in the orb grows clearer, and my mate appears, I forget how to breathe. "Jared Hamilton, do you love me?" a woman asks in her sweetest voice, curling her arms around his neck. "I do. Of course, I do. You're the only one I'll love for the rest of my life, Luciana." My hand slips. Even after the crystal orb hits the floor, I can still hear them talking. "I swear before the sacred Moon Goddess that I'll be with you, Luciana Rose, until my very last breath. If I ever break this oath, may I never know joy again." I feel suffocated. All I can do is stare in disbelief. The woman he vows to love for life is none other than my very best friend.
