Destinada A Mi Gran Cuñado

On my fifth year anniversary, the first two things I receive are two bills for water and electricity. My wife, Whitney Chapman, comes home at a late hour. She's carrying a food container that's filled with food that has gone cold. "Sorry, I was dealing with an extremely difficult client. I can only make it up to you with supper." She puts down the container before walking into the bathroom. While she doesn't reek of alcohol, there's dust coating the hem of her windbreaker. I call Whitney's secretary, only to find out that she has not been to the company today. A second before I end the call, the secretary adds, "By the way, Mr. Spencer, the new warehouse manager, Maxwell Clarke, was also absent from work today." Maxwell Clarke? The illegitimate child who brings nothing but shame to the Spencer family? What a big coincidence… or was it? I quickly contact the property manager of the villa based on the bills I've received. "A father-and-son duo have just moved into the villa last month." The manager then sends the list of inhabitants to me. The name listed is also Maxwell Clarke. This villa happens to be a property my father left for me back when Whitney and I first got married. Since it's too far from the city, I've left it vacant all this time because I wanted to reserve it as a villa meant for vacation purposes. Now, the people I hate are the ones living in that villa.

Labeled the harbinger of calamity from birth, she was nameless, discarded, and hated by the kingdom. Yet, she moved through life, hoping to awaken her wolf and find her mate. It was her consolation, only to be slapped in the face with the brutal reality shortly after: she was wolfless and rejected by her mate for her twin sister, the darling of the kingdom. She awaited death, the brutal end of every Harbinger of Calamity who couldn't redeem themselves with a wolf or a mate. However, at the last minute, she was forced to take her twin sister's place, and become the bride of the Grand Preceptor/Tutor, an enigma who only left his legend but no face. Rumor said he was the oldest man in the kingdom, barely holding on to his last breath. "He is desperate for an heir," Her father, the Duke said, "Give him a child by all means. Everything he owns must belong to this family. If you can do that, I'll make sure you own land, properties, and titles." "Don't blame us for how we treated you all those years, it's your fault that you were born with a curse. So, don't let this opportunity to redeem yourself go." Her mother. "I could even take you as my concubine if you succeed," her ex-mate, the crown prince. But why is the man who was said to be old and feeble, and dying soon, looking younger and stronger than the crown prince himself? Why is the man who was said to be desperate for an heir telling her, "Put your clothes back on, you're not a vessel for my heir, you're my Luna."? And why does he look at her like she's the air he breathes? "We will make them pay," he kissed her tenderly.

El día de mi cumpleaños, yo, Luna García, y mi hermana adoptiva Susana García sufrimos un accidente automovilístico. Las llamas ya me habían consumido, pero mi prometido, Manuel Sánchez, señaló el asiento del copiloto y gritó a los socorristas: —¡Salven a Susana primero! ¡Tiene un problema cardíaco! Al despertar, mi rostro estaba desfigurado y los médicos me dieron un mes de vida como máximo. Más tarde, por el bien de los intereses de ambas familias, todos decidieron que Susana se casaría en mi lugar con mi prometido. Manuel, con el corazón apretado, acarició los vendajes que cubrían mi cara y me hizo una promesa: —Cuando te mejores, la posición de señora Sánchez seguirá siendo tuya. Yo acepté con una sonrisa. Incluso regalé, como obsequio prenupcial para ella, todas mis acciones, propiedades y las obras de arte que no había revelado al público. Gracias a mis pinturas, ella se convirtió en una artista renombrada, admirada por todos. Durante una entrevista con los periodistas, nuestra madre, Irene Jiménez, lloró emocionada: —¡Menos mal que no le pasó nada a ella en el accidente! ¡Si no, nuestra familia habría perdido a una genia! Manuel también anunció a los cuatro vientos que ella sería la única y legítima esposa de la familia Sánchez. Lo que no sabían era que la verdadera genia los observaba desde las sombras, con una mirada gélida. Y todas aquellas cosas que yo misma les había regalado, desde el principio, no fueron más que ofrendas que preparé para mi venganza.

Cuando el primer amor de mi esposo descubrió que estaba embarazada, me empujó deliberadamente por la borda del crucero. Pero en lugar de gritar pidiendo ayuda, agarré a Camila —mi suegra, la madre de León— que también había caído al agua, y juntas luchamos por sobrevivir. En mi vida anterior, había gritado desesperadamente en el mar, por lo que mi esposo organizó de inmediato un equipo de rescate que nos salvó a ambas. Pero las manchas de sangre de su primer amor atrajeron tiburones que la devoraron viva. Después de que ella muriera, mi esposo dijo que no merecía ninguna lástima por haberme empujado al agua, y aunque yo estaba aterrorizada, él accedía a todos mis caprichos. Sin embargo cuando nuestro hijo nació, ocurrió que él usó la tablilla conmemorativa de su primer amor para golpear al bebé hasta matarlo. —¡Todo es culpa tuya, maldita, por hacerme perder a mi verdadero amor! ¡Ahora sabrás lo que se siente al perder a alguien! Con todas mis fuerzas, hice que él y yo muriéramos juntos. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, descubrí con asombro que había regresado a ese mismo mar.
