Charli D'amelio Birthday

On our son's fifth birthday, I found the texts on Stanley's phone—from his best friend's widow: [Stanley, the kid misses his dad again. When are you coming over?] [Stanley, Archie liked a set of matching family outfits. I already ordered them. Let's wear them together this weekend.] [Stanley, Archie starts school tomorrow. I put your name down under "father." Hope that's okay?] And Stanley? He was all in: [Loretta's asleep. I'll head over now.] [My size is 3XL. Don't get the wrong one.] [It's fine. You two have always been my responsibility.] I stood there, frozen. Then I called him back in from the living room, where he'd been helping Luca open gifts. He didn't deny it. Just hugged me and started rambling. "Hallie's Howard's widow. I promised I'd look out for her and Archie. I know I messed up. It won't happen again." We'd been together ten years. Luca had just turned five. Ending a marriage over a few texts felt dramatic. So I let it slide. Believed him. We even went out to celebrate Luca's birthday. Then his phone lit up on the table: [Stanley, the kid's crying for his dad before bed. I can't calm him down.] Stanley shoved his chair back and walked out—no hesitation. I looked at Luca. He was startled at the noise. And just like that, divorce didn't feel so dramatic anymore.

Le jour de mon mariage, mon fiancé a eu une liaison avec ma sœur Isabelle Bernard dans le salon de repos, et ils ont été surpris sur le fait. Je suis devenue la risée de tous, mais mon ami d'enfance Alex Thomas m'a demandé en mariage publiquement et m'a défendue. Après le mariage, il m'a obéi en tout. Malheureusement, notre vie sexuelle n'a jamais bien fonctionné. Ce n'était qu'après avoir fait une FIV cette année que je suis tombée enceinte. Après cela, il m'a choyée de toutes les manières possibles. J'ai cru qu'il était enfin mon véritable refuge. Jusqu'au jour où j'ai entendu sa conversation avec un ami. « Alex, tu es trop cruel. Léa Bernard est si gentille avec toi. Comment as-tu pu échanger les ovules pour que Léa porte l'enfant à la place d'Isabelle, simplement parce qu'Isabelle a peur d'accoucher ? » « Et l'enfant va naître dans deux mois. Qu'est-ce que tu comptes faire ? » Il s'est tu un instant et a poussé un soupir. « Une fois l'enfant né, je le remettrai à Isabelle pour réaliser son rêve de devenir mère. » « Quant à Léa, je lui dirai que l'enfant est mort. » « Je resterai avec elle pour le reste de sa vie. » Alors c'était donc ça. Toute la tendresse que je croyais sincère n'était destinée qu'à elle. Je suis allée prendre rendez-vous pour un avortement. Je n'ai plus voulu de cet enfant impur. Je n'ai plus voulu de ce mariage mensonger non plus.

Selena n'a jamais voulu être une louve. Elle voulait seulement être médecin, soigner les gens et sauver des vies. Elle était si proche de réaliser son rêve lorsque sa vie s'est effondrée la nuit où elle a été choisie comme compagne, non pas par un, ni par deux, mais par trois frères royaux de la meute Crystal, qui se trouvaient être ses demi-frères. Regaleone, le prince héritier, est dur et autoritaire. Riven, le jumeau au cœur tendre, la rassure. Zack, le colérique, serait prêt à tuer pour elle sans hésiter. Selena éprouve des sentiments sincères pour chacun d'eux, mais la meute la considère comme maudite. Tout le monde, y compris sa mère, s'est éloigné d'elle, et lorsque la nouvelle s'est répandue en dehors de la meute, des forces encore plus sombres sont venues la chercher. Le Seigneur des Sorciers croit que Selena fait partie d'une prophétie qu'il a entendue autrefois. Pour lui, elle est la clé du pouvoir qu'il a toujours désiré. Selena n'a jamais demandé cette vie, elle n'a jamais voulu ces liens, mais elle ne peut y échapper. Prisée entre l'amour, la trahison et le sang, elle doit faire un choix : rester et se battre pour une place dans un monde qui la déteste... ou fuir, au risque de perdre les seules personnes qui l'aiment vraiment.

On my eighteenth birthday, Alpha called me up in front of the whole pack and told me to choose—one of his sons as my mate. Whichever I chose? He'd be the next Alpha. I didn't flinch. I picked Cayce, his eldest. The room went dead silent. Everyone knew I used to be stupidly in love with Kain, the younger one. I'd confessed at every pack dance. Took a silver dagger for him once. Cayce? Coldest, meanest wolf we had. Total menace. No one got close. But they didn't know the truth. In my last life, I was bonded to Kain. On the day of our Bonding Ceremony, he slept with Lena, my cousin. My mom lost it. Shipped Lena off to Duskwolf Pack to get bonded to their Beta. Kain? He blamed me. Paraded in she-wolves with Lena's same ice-blue eyes. When he found out I was carrying his pup, he made sure I saw him with every one of them. It was torture. When labor hit, he locked me in the dungeon. Blocked everyone out. My pup got crushed. I died hating him. Maybe the Moon Goddess felt sorry for me—she gave me a second shot. I came back. This time? I let Kain keep Lena. Didn't think he would ever regret it.

All her life, Ava Malcolm has given her all to her dead beat husband, Carson. She spent years trying. Smiling. Grinning at cameras just for him. Raised as the brilliant marketing prodigy of the Malcolm family and an heiress, everyone says he's after her wealth. Ava turns a deaf ear to their words. She loved him even if he cancels all anniversary plans, berate and neglect her. His family doesn't like her. On his 34th birthday, she decided to give him her inheritance hoping it'd light up the spark in their marriage and throws a big surprise party for him with high hopes that when he finally comes back from the 6 month business trip he went on, he'd see all the efforts she'd put into making his day special. He doesn't. Carson sweeps her aside like a pound of dust while grinning at cameras and heads up the stairs with a lady. She follows. Just as she gets to the room, she catches him with his first love, Giselle. Turned out he'd been cheating all the while. When she wakes up in an hospital, she realizes he's found the papers and had signed them. He pays the hospital to lie she was mentally unstable and leaves her there to build a life with his new lover. When Ava gets out, she's bent on getting just one thing: revenge. When she storms his party, he lies to the world that she cheated with an photoshopped image. No one believes her. Only he did. Jaxton Steel, heir to the steel conglomerates. He offers Ava a deal. A marriage with him in exchange for revenge against everyone that had ever wronged her. And Ava? She's no longer the damsel in distress. She's the storm he didn't see coming.

Ma sœur adoptive Sophia, la dernière louve blanche de race pure du village Grell, a été violée et torturée à mort par un loup-garou égaré inconnu. Sa lettre de suicide ne contenait qu'une phrase : « Lina a vu son visage. » À partir de ce jour, je suis devenue la plus grande pécheresse de la tribu. Parce que je connaissais l'identité du meurtrier, mais je suis restée silencieuse pendant cinq ans. Jusqu'au jour où mon frère adoptif Damien, l'Alpha le plus puissant de Continent du Nord, est revenu. Il a rapporté l'Appareil de Vision des Âmes et a extrait de force les souvenirs de mon âme de loup-garou. Tous les loups-garous ayant subi l'Appareil de Vision des Âmes sont morts ou devenus fous. Ma louve a été torturée sans cesse par l'appareil, mais Damien a réprimé la douleur dans ses yeux et a rugi : « Quand je découvrirai la vérité, je t'enverrai en enfer avec le meurtrier. » Mais lorsqu'ils ont finalement découvert la vérité, Damien a perdu la raison.

I sat at the table, watching the food grow cold, much like my heart. Today was my birthday. It was also Leslie Buck's birthday—Katherine White's childhood sweetheart. I unlocked my phone and opened Leslie's social media page. As expected, a new post awaited me. "Grateful to have you by my side for every birthday. Let's keep our promise to celebrate every one of them together in the future!" The photo showed two hands forming a heart in front of a cake. One of them was Katherine's. I could tell from the bracelet she wore. It was the one I had given her. I gave the post a like, then set my phone aside. Without hesitation, I dumped the dishes Katherine liked into the trash and went out to a restaurant to order the food I liked, celebrating my birthday alone. From now on, I would make sure to enjoy every birthday of mine.
