Valentine lived with her abuser—her own father. Hence, she started to become responsible and independent at such a young age. With too many goals set in mind, she ended up seeing love as something stupid and a complete waste of time. Who would have known what her own life has in store for her? Her father got sent to the hospital, suffering a condition which she concluded was the consequence he needed to face after abusing her for so many years. A handsome man—her high school bully—appeared in the scene; Valentine was forced to wed him, bound by a contract in exchange for his financial support to pay the hospital bills for her father's treatments. He loved her; she hated him. Will they be able to stay together until their marriage contract ends? How will they face their own problems now that they're married but with no mutual feelings attached?

A velha amiga de infância de Valentim Leal, Dalila Travassos, voltou a ocupar o banco do carona. Dessa vez, não fiz escândalo.

Perdida naquele beijo quente e confuso, pensei: Desconfiar dos homens. Entender os homens. Virar um deles. Essa é a grande verdade.

No meu aniversário, um dos subordinados do meu marido se inclinou para perto dele e sussurrou em russo: — Sasha preparou uma surpresa para você esta noite. Meu marido sorriu para mim enquanto terminava de cortar meu bolo. Então, no mesmo idioma, respondeu: — Ela tem vários truques na cama. Vou vê-la mais tarde. — Só não deixe a Madame descobrir, ou receio que eu seja expulso. Todos ao redor riram e garantiram que manteriam segredo. Nenhum deles sabia que eu era fluente em vários idiomas desde criança. O que eles também não sabiam era que eu havia encontrado o celular escondido que ele mantinha na gaveta falsa, onde estavam salvos todos os vídeos imundos dele com Sasha. Eu não o confrontei. Em vez disso, contatei algumas conexões que ainda tinha em Vegas e pedi que preparassem uma nova identidade para mim. Em três dias, Claire Vega não existiria mais, e ele nunca mais me teria novamente.

Le jour de mon anniversaire, mon compagnon, Jackson, a épousé son premier amour dans une église. Quand je l'ai confronté, il m'a répondu froidement : « Layla a été empoisonnée par le poison du loup. Je ne fais que réaliser son dernier souhait. » « Tu nous vois vaiment trop tordus. Si j'avais été infidèle, tu l'aurais su, non ? » Il savait parfaitement que, pour le sauver, j'avais perdu mon âme de louve. Qu'entre lui et moi, il n'y avait plus cette connexion télépathique propre aux compagnons liés. Depuis longtemps, je n'étais plus qu'une ordinaire. Inutile. Je n'ai ni pleuré ni crié. En silence, j'ai pris rendez-vous chez la guérisseuse pour interrompre ma grossesse. Puis, j'ai quitté cette maison. À Jackson, je n'ai laissé qu'une lettre d'adieu, et un cadeau de divorce. Mais, sans que je comprenne pourquoi, Jackson — qui m'avait toujours traitée avec mépris — s'est mis à me chercher comme un fou, obsédé par ma trace.

Después de dieciocho años perdida, mis padres multimillonarios finalmente me encontraron. Pero en el instante de nuestro reencuentro, la hija falsa cayó al suelo, llorando con lágrimas como perlas: —Adiós, mamá, adiós, papá. Gracias por todo vuestro amor. Ahora que ella ha vuelto… este hogar ya no me necesita. Mis padres, con el corazón destrozado, la abrazaron al unísono: —¡Cariño, no digas tonterías! ¡Tú eres y siempre serás nuestra única hija de verdad! Incluso mi prometido le declaró su amor frente a todos: —Da igual quién seas. Mi corazón solo te pertenece a ti. Mientras ellos giraban obsesivamente en torno a la impostora, yo agonizaba en una cama de hospital tras un brutal accidente. ¿La razón de su ausencia? Estaban ocupados celebrando el cumpleaños del perro de ella. Así que empaqueté mis sueños y acepté la oferta de la Agencia Espacial. Sin una palabra a nadie, me sumergí en un proyecto confidencial de cinco años: la investigación pionera de satélites artificiales. Pero he aquí la ironía: apenas me fui, toda la familia enloqueció. Recorrieron el país como locos, desesperados por encontrar el más mínimo rastro de la hija que una vez despreciaron.

En el octavo año de noviazgo, me interpuse para recibir un cuchillazo que iba dirigido a mi novio, el médico Sebastián Herrera. Él me prometió que podía pedir cualquier cosa a cambio. Todos pensaron que aprovecharía la ocasión para pedirle matrimonio. Yo, en cambio, dije con calma: —Terminemos. Dicho eso, me di la vuelta y me fui. Sebastián sonrió con desdén y apostó con los presentes: —Es solo que quiere llamar la atención; apuesto a que en tres días vuelve llorando a suplicarme que volvamos… Pero se equivocó. Porque yo guardo un secreto: he renacido. En la vida anterior conseguí casarme con él, pero el gran amor de su vida, Camila Duarte, se tiró desde la azotea. Él volcó toda su rabia en mí. La noche de la boda me rasgó la cara; me encerró en un sótano oscuro y estrecho. Cuando quedé embarazada me obligó a tomar cantidades enormes de suplementos. El día del parto el bebé ya era demasiado grande para nacer por vía natural. Al final sangré sin control, me desgarré en un parto imposible y morí. Renací y volví al día en que me puse delante del cuchillo por Sebastián. Esta vez, hago exactamente lo que él espera de mí.
