Block B Taeil

A year ago, my life was simple. I was just Ariel Anthony…a regular college student, cheerleader with decent grades, daughter of a struggling baker, and recently appointed step-sister to a guy I barely knew. Nothing special. Then came the storm. Not just the thunderstorm that trapped me in Professor Grayson's apartment that night, but the storm that followed. The one that's still raging around me, that I created. They don't warn you about men like Luther Grayson in freshman orientation. They don't tell you how a single glance from the right person can make you question everything you thought you knew about yourself. About what you want. About what you'd risk to get it. They also don't warn you about guys like Ethan Cross, with his perfect smile hiding something dark. The kind of guy who's used to getting what he wants and doesn't understand the meaning of the word "no." And no one, absolutely no one…prepares you for what it feels like when the person who's supposed to be your brother looks at you with something else in his eyes. Mom once said I had a gift for making complicated situations worse. If she only knew. My phone buzzed beside me, and I glanced down to see Luther's name on the screen. My heart still jumps every time, even when I'm aware of what could happen if people learned about the two of us. I should ignore it. I should block his number, focus on my classes, help Mom with the bakery, and pretend none of this ever happened. But I'm already reaching for the phone. That's the thing about crossing lines… once you step over them, it's almost impossible to step back. And I've crossed so many lines now, I can't even see where I started.

Anathea Jacobson has had a crush on Gregory Sinclair for ten years. She thinks marrying him is a dream come true. Even if he's just a block of ice now, she'll surely be able to melt him over time. However, all she ever gets is his ice-cold treatment. He's gentle and tender to his true love, but he scorns and neglects her. He also mistreats and humiliates her… Anathea endures it all because they have a son. For his sake, she's willing to cling to her title of Mrs. Sinclair and cage herself in this loveless marriage for the rest of her life. This changes when she's abducted. Gregory spends the night with his true love, and even her beloved son abandons her—he wants to have Gregory's true love as his mother! That's when Anathea sees sense. Her husband will never love her, and her son will never appreciate her. If that's the case, she doesn't want them anymore. She wants to live for herself! … After the divorce, Anathea picks up floral art again. She sets up a company, makes big money, and wins various awards. She wants to give herself all the love she deserves so that she'll go back to being the lively, vivacious woman she once was. Gregory panics when he sees the men surrounding her and vying for her affections. He falls to his knees before her, his eyes rimmed with red as he pleads, "I love you, Nat. Please don't leave me." Anathea sneers. "Your love is too little, too late, Mr. Sinclair." Her son clings to her legs and wails. "Don't abandon me, Mom!" She pushes him away impassively. "Don't call me that. I'm not your mother."

One look. One kiss. And a scandal. That was all it took for her well planned life to take a drastic turn. Vivienne Reynolds has spent almost a decade of her life in the shadows with only three things on her agenda. Taking care of her mom Staying out of the spotlight and avoiding the cameras Never trusting anyone But one night was all it required for her life to be upended and become entangled with Hollywood royalty and heartthrob; Liam Pryce. At first glance, Vivienne knew that this man was going to be trouble because he came with everything she solely avoided. The good looks, fat bank account and worst of all; the cameras. A part of Vivi wanted to trust him because he rekindled that part that sent her pulse racing with every glance and sinful touch. However, the other part of her—the part that has been burnt and scarred because she had trusted the wrong people warned her against it. It had been what got her into this mess in the first place. In the battle between caution and chemistry, Vivienne will have to choose between risking everything for the man who is determined to never let her go and letting the scars of her past dictate her future. N/B: Reader's discretion is highly advised.

After I was falsely accused of being a third wheel by a fake heiress, she hired a group of people to corner me in the delivery room under the pretense of giving me an intervention. "How dare you, a shameless mistress, hope to secure a place with your child!" "Today, I'm going to make sure that b*stard in your belly is gone for good. Let's see if you dare get into my man's bed again." The group blocked the delivery room door, their faces twisted with malice as they refused to let the doctors deliver my baby. I begged them to let me go, but they only laughed cruelly and forced me down in front of a camera while I struggled through labor. They forcefully pulled the baby out of my belly and killed him right in front of me. I clung to my child's lifeless body, sobbing hysterically, while they posted my miserable state online with the caption, 'This is what happens to mistresses.' Later, I exposed her fake heiress status and revealed the dirty secrets of her and those people who were allegedly giving me an intervention online. Relentlessly attacked by netizens until she had nowhere left to turn, she ended up begging me for forgiveness. I pointed to the edge of the rooftop and said, "Jump, and I'll forgive you."

Mon copain Justin avait une amie d'enfance, Roxane, qui était tombée enceinte avant son mariage. Pour protéger sa réputation, Justin a décidé de l'épouser. Lorsque je lui ai demandé, incrédule, ce que notre enfant et moi allions devenir, il s'est contenté de me répondre avec un calme glaçant : « Roxane n'est pas comme toi. Je suis le seul qui lui reste. Elle ne supporterait pas les ragots sur une grossesse hors mariage ! » Mais Justin avait oublié que, tout comme Roxane, je n'avais plus que lui. Et que j'étais moi aussi enceinte avant notre mariage. Plus tard, quand tout le monde se moquait de moi, traitant mon enfant de « bâtard sans père », Justin restait aux côtés de Roxane, me regardant avec indifférence. C'était alors que j'ai compris que l'amour n'était pas égal pour tous… Alors j'ai mis fin à cette grossesse, pour leur laisser leur amour pur.

Pour débarrasser de notre fils, un louveteau, et passer la Saint-Valentin avec son assistante, mon compagnon Marcus a forcé notre chiot blessé à faire de l'escalade et l'a empoisonné. Quand j'ai précipité mon louveteau mourant à l'hôpital, j'ai eu la surprise de voir Marcus en train d'accompagner son assistante pour un contrôle prénatal. Notre pauvre chiot, terrifié, se tordait de douleur à cause du poison, mais Marcus n'en avait rien à faire. « Ce n’est qu’un Oméga. S’il était un vrai loup, il se remettrait instantanément ! » Je serrais dans ma poche l'herbe « Bénédiction de Lune » d'une valeur de 100 millions d’euros que j'avais trouvée par hasard ce matin dans la forêt. J'avais prévu de lui annoncer cette bonne nouvelle aujourd'hui. Mais maintenant ? Il était temps de mettre fin à ce lien de cinq ans.

Mon petit ami a été diagnostiqué avec un cancer et a besoin d'une greffe de foie. En apprenant que mon groupe sanguin et le sien étaient compatibles, je n'ai pas hésité une seconde à lui donner les deux tiers de mon foie. Après l'opération, je souffrais énormément, mais dès que j'ai repris connaissance, je suis allée immédiatement voir comment il allait. Cependant, devant la porte de sa chambre, j'ai entendu cette conversation impitoyable avec son ami : « Clovis, tu es un génie, c'est incroyable d'avoir imaginé une telle vengeance. » Clovis a ri : « Je ne voulais pas faire de vagues, j'aurais même envisagé de lui faire donner un de ses reins. C'est son juste retour. C'est de sa faute si Victoria a échoué à son examen et a dû partir étudier à l'étranger. Je vais couper les ponts avec Bélise dès que Victoria rentrera, dans un mois. »
