My wedding starts at 12:00 pm on the dot. There are 58 tables, each table costing 8888 dollars. 120 bottles of premium liquor have been opened. 300 packs of top-tier cigarettes are unsealed. At 2:30 pm, all the guests have left the scene, leaving nothing but a huge mess behind. That's when a server hands me the bill. "It'll be 510 thousand dollars, miss." I'm left gobsmacked. "I'm a wedding guest, not the organizer." The groom is Charlie Humboldt, my ex-boyfriend. At the moment, he takes his pregnant bride, Sasha Fitch, by the hand while sneering at me. "Since you're here, you might as well foot the bill. Think of it as your way of compensating for my youth." Charlie's mother, Melissa Carlton, moves to block the door. "If you're not paying the bill, then you can forget about leaving. No one wants you anyway, so you might as well stay here and pay off your debt by working as a dishwasher!" As I stare at the shameless family, I dig out my phone quietly. What they don't know is that this five-star hotel is a gift from my dad to me.

Zack clears his throat. "We have been dreaming about Brandon Snow." "Ahhh," Lucille says, smiling and nodding her head. "The future Beta. And a white wolf to boot. Your future pups will be quite beautiful with Charlie's chocolate coloring and Zak's reddish hue. The three of you will make wonderful parents." Zak's mouth drops open and Charlie squeaks out, "Our future... pups!" "What do you know of Selene and her mates?" Lucille asks. "Mates? I only know of one mate. Pan," Charlie says. "As the god of the wild and the goddess of the moon, Pan and Selene's children became werewolves. Wild creatures who were controlled by the moon." "Ahhh. Is that what they are teaching the young pups now? That Selene only had one mate? I knew that they didn't want mate trios any longer, but I didn't know that they would attempt to change even Selene's story," Lucille chuckles. "Alpha, Luna, do you truly believe that if there was no humanity in their coupling that we would be human at all?" "Wait. What?" Zak says. "If we were only children of Pan and Selene, we would always be wild creatures. Nymphs, satyrs, centaurs. But we aren't. Of course, we could remain in our wolf form all the time if we wish, but we always have the ability to shift into human form. No, young ones, Selene had two mates. One, the god Pan. The other, a human man named Endymion. We get our wolves from Pan, our pull to the moon from Selene, and our human selves from Endymion," Lucille says. "Why..." Zak licks his lips and starts again. "Why weren't we told this?" "Ahhh," Lucille breathes out, taking a sip of her coffee. "Because not every wolf has two mates, as Selene did. As you two do."

Mabait, mayaman at maganda, ganyan ang tingin ng buong mundo kay Charlize Elizabeth Sandejas o Charlie, ang tagapagmana ng Sandejas Shipping Lines. Nasa kanya na ang lahat maliban sa isang bagay-- ang puso ni Gael Estrada, ang ulilang lubos na tinulungan noon ng kanyang mga magulang at ang kaisa-isang lalaking kanyang minahal. Thinking he doesn't want her because of their differences in life, Charlie had spent the last three years of her college life trying to unlove and forget him. Subalit muling bumalik si Gael sa buhay niya bilang kanyang bagong bodyguard. Sa pagkakataong iyon, nagtapat si Gael sa tunay nitong nararamdaman na siya lang ang pinakamamahal nito at wala nang iba. Nang maipit si Charlie sa isang kasunduang hindi naman niya talaga ginusto, lihim siyang nagpakasal kay Gael at nagpakalayo-layo. At nang akala niya maayos na ang lahat sa piling ng kanyang mahal, bigla na lamang siyang iniwan ni Gael sa panahong kailangang-kailangan niya ito. Makalipas ang halos limang taon, muli silang nagkita ni Gael. He is now a billionaire but doesn't have any memory of her. He wants two things from her, her signature on their divorce papers and her company's closure. Papayag ba siya sa gusto ni Gael nang gano'n-gano'n na lang gayong ito ang unang nanakit at nang-iwan sa kanya? Paano niya lalabanan ang galit sa kanya ng dating asawa na hindi niya alam kung saan nagmula? At higit sa lahat, paano niya sasabihin dito ang tungkol sa kanilang anak na bunga ng minsan nilang pagmamahalan na hindi naman nito maalala

Pledged by birth to ancient obligations he barely understands, the unnamed heir grapples with a destiny that demands secrecy and sacrifice. Cloaked in shadows within his ancestral keep, he learns to read arcane symbols whispered through generations. When political machinations from the gilded twilight city threaten to expose his lineage—and his potential—he must navigate deception and hidden loyalties to claim what is rightfully his. Guided by a devoted guardian, and haunted by the weight of prophecy, he must choose whether to embrace the power he fears or shatter the silence that has long protected him.

Hari ketika suamiku Charlie dan mahasiswi yang dia biayai memposting foto prewedding di Instagram. Aku tidak lagi mengamuk seperti biasanya. Sebaliknya, aku malah memberi mereka like. Lalu, aku berkomentar. [ Pria berbakat dan wanita cantik, mari kita beri restu untuk pasangan ini. ] Orang-orang di lingkaran pertemanan bilang aku adalah istri sah yang paling tidak berdaya, membiarkan selingkuhan bertindak semaunya. Seminggu kemudian, dia pulang dan menjelaskan padaku, "Itu cuma akting. Kakeknya sakit, sebelum meninggal dia ingin melihat cucunya menikah." Aku mengangguk dengan tenang. "Aku nggak menganggapnya serius, aku percaya kamu." Di kehidupan sebelumnya, aku pergi ke lokasi pernikahan dan membuat keributan pada hari ini sampai pernikahan mereka hancur gara-gara aku. Demi menghukumku, Charlie menargetkan perusahaan orang tuaku hingga mereka bangkrut dan melompat dari gedung. Aku juga dikirim olehnya ke rumah sakit jiwa dan disiksa sampai menjadi gila. Jadi setelah hidup kembali, aku tidak lagi mengharapkan cintanya, aku hanya ingin hartanya. Setiap kali dia berselingkuh, aku akan memindahkan sebagian aset atas namanya. Tinggal tiga kali lagi, dia akan kehilangan segalanya.

My husband, James Lincoln, disappeared in an accident, and my in-laws wasted no time filing to have him legally declared deceased. At the funeral, a woman, Xena Xander, suddenly showed up with a young boy, both crying hysterically. The boy, Charlie Lincoln, screamed at the top of his lungs, calling my husband “Daddy.” My ten-year-old daughter, Mia Lincoln, charged at him, shouting, “Shut up! That’s my dad!” Pretending to break it up, my in-laws instead shoved Mia to the ground. She collapsed and passed out on the spot. “If you’re looking for someone to blame, blame yourself for not giving us a grandson! This family can’t die out without an heir!” Xena smirked at me with blatant provocation. Behind her, Charlie spat in my direction and sneered, “You’re just a worthless tramp nobody cares about.” I didn’t lose my temper. Instead, I laughed. “If you want the status and the inheritance so badly, you can have them. But don’t come crying to me when you regret it.” Two weeks later, Xena showed up at my doorstep, covered in blood, banging on the door and screaming. And then, I got a phone call that felt like a nightmare come to life. But I couldn’t have cared less. By then, I was already enjoying a peaceful vacation overseas.
