Mon fiancé Roch Martin m'a séquestrée dans son sous-sol pendant dix jours pour venger son amie d'enfance. Il m'a tranché les bras, condamnant mon corps, déjà fragile à cause de mon trouble de la coagulation, à une lente hémorragie. Le jour de notre mariage, il a maudit mon « retard », croyant aux calomnies de cette même amie qui m'accusait d'adultère. Ses mensonges ont tué ma mère, morte d'infarctus sous l'outrage. Pourtant, quand il a découvert mon cadavre desséché, c'était lui qui a sombré dans la folie...

Julia pensait connaître sa vie : un mariage tranquille, une maison élégante, un fils qu’elle chérit plus que tout. Mais derrière les sourires bien appris, quelque chose se fissure. Le silence de Damien, ses absences prolongées, la froideur qui s’installe entre eux… tout devient impossible à ignorer. Peu à peu, un doute s’invite dans son quotidien et transforme la moindre certitude en question sans réponse. Ce qui semblait solide commence à vaciller, et Julia comprend que la vérité, quelle qu’elle soit, pourrait changer bien plus que son mariage.

Arealis City's elite wolf packs have a secret—the head of the Ferguson family, Evan Ferguson, worships his wife but also has affairs with other women. He treats them like princesses and satisfies all their desires. He only has one rule—they must never allow his wife to learn about the affairs. After all, she was the one who'd nursed him for three years after his family had betrayed him. She'd even gone on the run with him for 48 days, almost giving her life to restore him to his rightful place in his family. Evan's newest lover is bolder than everyone else, though. She brazenly taunts me, emboldened by his feelings for her. "You're just a weak human, Ms. Castillo. I bet you can't endure such intense intimacy, right? Last night, Evan told me I gave him a thrill he's never felt before. Look at all the love bites he's left on me!" It's then that I realize I have no choice but to believe the man who once loved me with all his heart has changed. His love for me is no longer untainted. I pack my things and prepare to leave. When I turn around, I see a 17-year-old Evan looking at me pleadingly. "That's not me, Bella. Don't leave me."

À cause de ma négligence, Sophia, la chérie de Leo, s'était étouffée avec une gorgée d'eau de mer. Il est devenu fou de rage et m'a enfermée dans le sombre cachot d'eau. « Catherine, tout ce que Sophia a enduré, tu le paieras au double ! » Mon instinct de survie m'a poussée à me transformer en louve. Je me suis cognée la tête contre la cage de fer encore et encore, implorant sa pitié. Mais Leo m'a enchaîné les membres avec des chaînes de fer et a ordonné à ses subordonnés de continuer à inonder la chambre. « Une misérable jalouse comme toi n'apprendra l'obéissance qu'à travers la souffrance. » « Reste là et souffre pour tes fautes. » Il a scellé lui-même la porte de fer du cachot d'eau et a interdit à tout le monde de s'en approcher. À maintes reprises, je tendais le cou pour avaler l'air rare, hurlant de désespoir. Mais l'eau glacée qui montait me submergeait peu à peu. Je continuai à me débattre jusqu'à ce que je n'aie plus aucune force. Une semaine plus tard, dans sa grande miséricorde, il a décidé de mettre fin à mon châtiment. Ce qu'il ignorait, c'est que les serpents d'eau avaient déjà rongé mon corps jusqu'à le rendre méconnaissable.

After a venomous snake bites me, my husband, Daniel Dawson, injects the only antivenom into my adopted sister, Grace Winton. Before I black out, I see my parents, Daniel, and my son, Ethan Dawson, all gathered around Grace, while I lie alone on the grass, completely ignored. When I come to, my colleague shakes his head and tells me the toxin has already spread. Within 48 hours, my body will begin to rot from the inside, and I'll die in unbearable pain. I give up the conservative plan and swallow a potent painkiller instead. Over the next two days, I transfer the hospital my grandfather gave me and every asset in my name to Grace. I divorce Daniel and place both his and Ethan's hands into Grace's. When I put Grace's name on the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis treatment protocol I've spent five years developing, they finally smile, hold my hand, and tell me we're finally a real family. I stay silent and only smile at them. I wonder what their faces will look like two days later when they see my body.

Mariée depuis trois ans, Clara n'a toujours pas réussi à gagner la faveur de Léo. Après un malentendu, elle s'est décidée à divorcer et est retournée chez les Gasmi pour reprendre sa place de jeune dame. Son père faisait le mignon en disant : « Ma chérie, quand vas-tu prendre la relève de mon Groupe ? » Sa mère souriait radieusement : « Viens travailler avec maman en tant que conceptrice ! Avec mon soutien, tu vas réussir et te faire un nom ! » Sa grand-mère avait un air sérieux : « Deviens médecin, puisque tu as une aptitude pour la médecine, ce serait dommage de ne pas être médecin. » Elle a demandé : « Papy, qu'en penses-tu alors ? » Son grand-père qui se mettait à l'aise a répondu : « Et si on se retrouvait chaque jour pour prendre un thé, planter des fleurs et profiter de la vie de retraité en avance, ça te dit ? » Clara pensait que c'était le moment le plus heureux de sa vie, mais qui aurait pensé que ce salaud，qui avait une forte envie de divorcer d'elle viendrait la coller ? « Clara, je regrette d'avoir divorcé de toi ... » a-t-il déclaré En état d'ivresse, ce salaud la serrait dans ses bras, les yeux rouges et la voix étouffée : « Pourrais-tu m'appeler une fois de plus Chéri ? » Elle a souri en coin : « Mon ex-mari, tu manques vraiment de dignité ! » L'ex-mari : « Ma femme privilégie la dignité ! »

Depois de ser empurrada escada abaixo pela queridinha do meu marido, morri de parto no canto da escada do hospital particular da família Moreira. Antes de morrer, meu filho de seis anos chorou, implorando para que seu pai me salvasse. Na primeira vez, Davi Moreira apenas riu com desprezo: — Sua mãe ficou esperta, hein? Usando a criança para bancar a coitadinha e me enganar. E, dito isso, afastou a mão do menino sem nenhuma piedade e foi embora. Na segunda vez, meu filho disse que eu não parava de sangrar. Davi respondeu com impaciência no rosto: — Que exagero... Foi só um aborto espontâneo. Nada demais. Ela que gosta de drama! Depois de expulsar o menino, ele ainda ordenou aos médicos que nnguém deve cuidar de mim. — A culpa é minha por tê-la mimado demais. Sem sofrer, ela nunca vai aprender. Na última vez, meu filho se ajoelhou diante da amante dele, batendo a cabeça no chão, suplicando por mim. Davi explodiu de raiva e mandou os seguranças jogarem o menino, todo machucado, para fora do quarto, enquanto todos riam dele. — Se ousar incomodar a recuperação da Marina mais uma vez, mando sua mãe embora da família Moreira e você nunca mais vai vê-la! Meu filho rastejou até mim, deixando um rastro de sangue no chão. Dessa vez, você conseguiu. Nossos corpos estão frios. Nunca mais nos verá nesta vida.

On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love sent me, heartbreak on a platter of gold. How thoughtful. Melody Hart once believed December carried its own charm, everything feels beautiful and magical, and she would be having a Christmas wedding, something she’d dreamed of since childhood. But magic turned to ash the moment she walked in on the man she loved, unwrapping someone else like a gift. Determined to start over, she runs to New York City with nothing but a bruised heart and an almost empty bank account . She isn’t searching for miracles anymore. She just wants a job, a bed that’s not a borrowed couch, and one peaceful night where she doesn’t cry herself to sleep. Just like she had her problems, Logan Russo had his. He needs a woman for Christmas, someone who would be able to act in front of his whole family, just to get them off his neck. Melody needs two hundred thousand dollars. Neither of them needs love. The universe brought them together, two desperate strangers who needed each other. What started off as a confrontation at the airport, soon blossomed into something beautiful. She got her Christmas miracle after all. All that was short-lived because the universe had other plans. But this time, how much can she take, how willing is she to protect what she's built? Only time will tell.

By fate or miracle, Lyria was alive and breathing on the cold December night of her assassination day. Though she could open her eyes, she couldn't see clearly the point of being alive and to exist wandering on the streets of some unknown village. It may seem like an angel's whisper; a stranger stood by her side when she was meters away from death. His words were striking light, and a spectrum of color flourished in her dark world. She found hope in a hopeless stranger who jumped ahead of her with the certainty he would die. As she jumped back unknowingly, the poor and miserable girl saved the life of the youngest billionaire in town, Zion Hudson. Just as when she thought their relationship would be connected professionally, things went awry when her name was linked as his love interest. Although she hated the people's attention and eyes, she loved challenges. "Make me fall for you, then." The arrogant billionaire officially challenged the ferocious independent woman, Lyria, his servant, in a fight for love. They agreed she would not disappoint him with her hidden charm and talent as she accepted the challenge a few days later. "I will make you forget your name the same thing I forgot mine years ago." A period of madness is sure to begin for hearts that have been left empty for too long, prompting them to remember everything at once and forget it without a moment's hesitation.
