Crimson Rain Sought Flower

Na minha vida passada, no dia em que minha irmã Fernanda e eu participamos da cerimônia de escolha do Pacto das Bruxas, eu salvei um príncipe Kindred em perigo. Para retribuir minha bondade, assim que o príncipe retornou ao seu clã, ele imediatamente anunciou que eu seria sua futura noiva. Um ano depois, dei à luz um herdeiro de sangue puro, o único sucessor de toda a linhagem Kindred. O príncipe ficou exultante. No dia de sua coroação como Rei, ele completou o Pacto de Sangue comigo, tornando-me sua eterna companheira e rainha. A partir daquele momento, passei a ser reverenciada por todas as raças. Enquanto isso, minha irmã Fernanda escolheu se casar com um poderoso líder lobisomem, apenas para se tornar a mais insignificante de suas muitas amantes. A inveja a consumia até a loucura. Durante um festival da lua cheia das Bruxas, ela me empurrou de um penhasco, causando minha morte. Quando abri os olhos novamente, vi Fernanda correndo em direção ao local onde o príncipe Kindred estava em perigo, no dia da cerimônia de escolha. Eu soube, naquele instante, que ela também havia renascido. Mas ela não sabia que, embora fosse fácil se tornar a noiva do príncipe, conquistar seu coração e dar-lhe um filho era uma tarefa quase impossível.

Ian Tost was the prince of the notorious underworld. Everyone in Harbor City knew he spoiled me rotten. He even went so far as to hire ninety-nine female bodyguards to keep me from harm. It did not prevent a kidnapping attempt on me. One of those bodyguards, Cece Yates, ended up with nothing more than a scratch. Ian immediately brought in the nation’s top medical specialists to treat her. To comfort her, he even took her to the Maldives for a vacation and gifted her an island. Not long after they returned from their trip, Beatrix Kazinsky, my mother, suddenly suffered a stroke and was hospitalized. Then, Michael Kazinsky, my younger brother, died in an accident during a competition. I burst into the morgue while in tears, only to overhear Ian comforting Cece. “All right now, it was my fault you got hurt last time. I’ve made Mira’s family pay for it. You’ve got too much grace to hold a grudge against her.” With my nails digging into my palms, I finally realized everything that had happened to my family was Ian’s doing. It was all just because his precious bodyguard got hurt because of me! I stumbled out of the hospital with my brother’s death certificate in a daze. On my phone, messages from that person kept coming. It added up to ninety-nine share transfer agreements, along with his promise. [As long as you want me, my arms will always be open for you.]
