Broken Watch Isaac

Sa loob ng limang taon ng kasal, buong puso at kaluluwa na ibinigay ni Theariza Huston ang sarili upang maging karapat-dapat na asawa ng makapangyarihang si Alexander Huston. Tiniis niya ang malamig na tingin ng pamilya nito, ang mga bulong sa likod ng kanyang likod, at ang sakit ng paulit-ulit na tanong—“Bakit hanggang ngayon wala pa rin siyang anak?” Araw-araw niyang pinilit maging perpektong asawa. Nagdasal. Umiyak nang palihim. Umasa na balang araw ay muli siyang titingnan ng kanyang asawa tulad ng dati—na may pagmamahal. Ngunit habang lumilipas ang mga taon, unti-unting naging malamig ang lalaking minsang nangakong siya lamang ang mamahalin. Hanggang dumating ang araw na tuluyan siyang sinukuan. Sa utos ng pamilya Huston, napilitan siyang tanggapin ang isang surrogate mother—ang perpektong si Althea Montoya. Maganda. Elegante. At may kakayahang ibigay ang tagapagmanang hindi niya kayang ibigay. Ngunit ang babaeng iyon ang naging simula ng kanyang pinakamadilim na bangungot. Sa kanyang unang buhay, ninakaw sa kanya ang lahat—ang kanyang dignidad, ang kanyang asawa, at maging ang kanyang karapatan bilang legal na asawa. At sa huli, pinatay siya ng mismong mga taong pinili niyang mahalin at pagkatiwalaan. Ngunit hindi doon nagtapos ang kanyang kwento. Nagising siyang muli… sa nakaraan. Sa kanyang ikalawang buhay, sinubukan niyang baguhin ang kapalaran. Naging maingat siya. Lumayo. Nanahimik. Ngunit kahit anong gawin niya, tila nakatakda pa rin ang kanyang kamatayan. Muli siyang pinatay. Ngayon, sa kanyang ikatlong buhay, bumalik siya na may dalang galit, alaala, at katotohanan. Hindi na siya ang mahina at umiiyak na babae na umaasa sa pagmamahal ng isang lalaking hindi marunong magmahal. Sa pagkakataong ito, hindi na siya magmamakaawa. Gaganti siya. Makakamit nga ba niya ang paghihiganting matagal niyang inaasam? O ang kanyang ikatlong buhay ang magiging huling pagkakataon para sa isang pagmamahal na matagal na niyang inilibing?

In order to save my childhood friend, I was severely burned and became a horrifying, ugly creature. But she thought that I had stuck my nose into her business and ruined her relationship with her crush. After we got married, she mocked my face multiple times in front of others and even brought her crush back home while I was around. She hated me even on her day of death. She said that if she could return to the past, she would rather die in the fire and not have anything to do with me. When I opened my eyes again, I returned to the moment before the fire. This time, I chose to give them my blessing.

My seven-year-old daughter stole my carefully crafted The Mystical Bracelet, just to help my husband's childhood friend win an award at the Milaney Jewelry Exhibition. I exposed her in front of everyone, but my husband accused me of falsely accusing her. ''You're just a country woman. How could you possibly make such an expensive piece like The Mystical Bracelet?'' The daughter I had cherished for years looked at me with contempt. ''You're so cruel, not even close to Ms. Elaine in any way.'' They let countless malicious words drown me, and in the process, all my feelings for them—the father and daughter—were completely erased. I left without hesitation, my heart calm and unshaken. From then on, there was no more Mrs. Shaw in Capital City—only Becca, the Pearl Diver.

During the outdoor orientation boot camp, Wanda Lawson, the daughter of the richest tycoon, suddenly suffered from a heart attack. She collapsed to the ground and went through a seizure, her complexion bluish-gray. My boyfriend, Joseph Jensen, the drill instructor of the boot camp, overheard my pretentious roommate, Ella Ziegler, murmur, "She's usually fine, so why is she suddenly suffering from some sort of attack when it's time for the drills to start? She must be faking it in order to laze around!" Because of those assumptions, Joseph kicked the medication that Wanda managed to pull out of her pocket into the nearby river. "Get lost if you want to play dead! Don't drag us down with you!" I quickly dived into the river and scooped the medication out. Thanks to my efforts, Wanda's life was saved. Her father was enraged when he found out about the news and wanted to hold someone responsible. With tears streaking down my face, I begged Wanda to not expose Joseph. She nodded quietly to me. Joseph narrowly escaped the judgment. But Ella was expelled by the university right away for her malicious and provocative words. She even had a permanent stain of poor conduct marking her record. On the third day after Ella returned to her village, her family forced her to marry an older man who had remained single for far too long because of his violent temperament. Wanda's father was grateful to me for saving Wanda's life, so he listed me into the list of beneficiaries of his family's trust fund. The amount of money I received was second only to Wanda's portion. On the night news of Ella getting beaten to death by her husband got out, Joseph lovingly invited me to the place we first met so that we could go hiking. When I stood on the steep slope of the mountain, Joseph suddenly snatched the backpack filled with supplies, which included a life-saving whistle, from me. Then, he shoved me off the slope. "Why must you be such a busybody? If you never saved Wanda, she wouldn't have been able to testify against Ella because she'd have died! A murderer like you should just die!" Having broken my spine from the fall, I ended up dying at the foot of the mountain. After my death, not only Joseph got to receive the trust fund thanks to his relationship to me as my fiance, but he also began sponsoring low-income students by using Ella's namesake. That was how he reaped both wealth and reputation in one go. When I open my eyes again, I've returned to the day Wanda suffers from the heart attack.

Cassandra Morgan thought her exhausting life was finally over. She went to a high end party to celebrate her freedom from her father's debt, but woke up in the next morning in luxurious suite and a handsome man was sleeping soundly. "You." The woman eyed Casandra. “Why are you so pathetic and shameless to bite something that is far from your league.” Cassandra found her phone, the first thing she saw was the text message she received from Rachel. “I sold you off. Sorry.” The man was smiling under the soft and silky duvet. His eyes still closed tight but he heard everything and felt amused by the drama. His back was facing them but his ears were clear as the sky. You awake? fucking asshole?

She was the Alpha’s rejected mate, cursed to die—until fate bound her to his sworn enemy beneath the Blood Moon… He was supposed to be my forever. Alpha Dorian Hale — ruthless, untouchable, the one every she-wolf desired. But on the night of the Moon Ceremony, before the entire pack, he looked into my eyes… and rejected me. Humiliated. Shattered. Branded unworthy. That should have been the end of me. But fate doesn’t bend so easily. My bloodline carries a secret even the Moon Goddess cannot deny—one that makes me the key to every pack’s survival… or destruction. Now I stand between two Alphas: The mate who scorned me. And the rival who would set the world ablaze just to claim me. He rejected me. But destiny never will.

Before our marking ceremony, my fiancé, Adrian Conner, insists on bringing his childhood sweetheart along on our trip—all because Flora Wooledge says she also wants to see the northern lights. He switches my first-class ticket to Flora's name. He says, "I'll fly first class with Flora. You can take connecting flights by land. The doctor said it's not good for a pregnant woman to stay at high altitude for too long." I don't cry or argue. Instead, I calmly push him toward Flora. He snorts. "You've finally learned to behave. You're not as clingy and troublesome as before." After he leaves, I quietly sign the abortion consent form at the hospital. Then, I book a ticket to the southern hemisphere. In my past life, I begged and clung to him, hoping to keep him with our pup. But on that trip, Flora was attacked by rogue wolves and torn apart in the snow. Adrian kept a calm facade. Yet on the night I was about to give birth, he dragged me back home and cut open my belly with his own hands. He stood there and listened as our pup's cries slowly faded away. He poured all his hatred onto me. He believed I caused Flora's death and that I ruined his chance to become the Conner family's heir. To him, I was nothing more than a sacrificial pawn. In this new life, when I step off the private jet, I see Adrian standing there with his eyes bloodshot. He stares at my belly and asks, "Where's the pup?" Before I can answer, his half-brother wraps an arm around my waist. "Adrian, show some respect to your sister-in-law."
