Dickens Final

Ava was human! So why had the Council ordered her to attend Phoenix Academy—a place teeming with supernatural beings where the only other humans were donors? Ava's plan to keep her head down and survive until they figured out she didn't belong there was shattered from day one. Clashing with the insufferably arrogant Zeke made keeping her mouth shut impossible. In his final year at the Academy, Zeke was set to become Alpha of the largest pack in the country. His first act of power would be to take revenge on the pack that killed his mother. But the arrival of a stubborn human girl with the most intoxicating scent threatened everything he’d worked for. A human should never have survived even a day at the academy. Yet despite the taunts, the ‘accidents’, and the threats to her life, the little human did. And every day that she did, his control slipped. Even with everything he stood to lose, he ached to make her submit to him in every single way.

I once believed Sarah Weller was the love of my life. For her, I planned a once-in-a-lifetime wedding; for her, I launched a “True Love” jewelry collection worth over a billion. However, with only seven days left before the wedding, she calmly told me that she needed to fulfill her first love’s late mother’s final wish to marry him first, and only then marry me. As if it were a matter of fact, she said, “For Tim, all of this can be sacrificed. If you can’t even bear to lose that little bit of money, you can find someone else to marry right now.” Only then did I understand. In her world, I and everything I had built could be pushed aside at any moment for her so-called first love. So, I turned around without another word and called home. “Penelope,” I said to my sister-in-law, “the wedding will proceed as scheduled. Just do me a favor and replace the bride.”

A Werewolf's Vow: Mated by the Letter To my dearest stranger, My day has been so tough to the point that I almost wanted to end my life. Wanted to slash my throat with a knife, drink and eat something with poison, or even planned to drown myself. Why was the world so mean to me? Why is my life this miserable? And why can they just leave me alone? I can't take it anymore. I only wanted to live a normal life, away from humiliation, deprivation, and bad luck. So, I'm writing this letter, thinking you might hear me out. Funny, but this is the only way I could express my thoughts. And for the record, this has been my eighth and final letter to send off. And whoever you are, it was nice meeting you. Hopefully, when you get the chance to read this letter, you'd send me something in response. For us to know each other better. I'll be waiting. Love, Joshua Craig.

My father bought twin brothers from the black market to serve as bodyguards for me and my sister. My sister chose the tall, strong older brother, leaving me with the frail, mute younger one. Feeling sorry for him, I kept him close, seeking doctors for his silence and maintaining distance to respect his apparent OCD. I thought trauma had shaped him that way. But when our father's enemies kidnapped us, he abandoned me without hesitation, choosing to die shielding my sister. In his final moments, he spoke for the first time. "You finally see me." To me, he said, "In the next life, please don't choose me." I realized then that he was neither mute nor afflicted with OCD. His silence and aversion were directed solely at me. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day we chose the bodyguards. This time, I'd grant his wish.

En mi vida pasada, mi hermano, solo porque su amante dijo que quería ver una lluvia de estrellas, se llevó a todos sus guardaespaldas y manejó hasta las afueras para armarle una noche bajo las estrellas. Ni se lo esperaba, pero los enemigos que mi hermano había jodido aprovecharon la oportunidad, y se metieron a la casa queriendo acabarnos por venganza. Mi madre luchó a muerte para protegerme, quedando fatalmente herida, debatiéndose entre la vida y la muerte. Llamé mil veces al celular de mi hermano, rogándole que se regresara cuanto antes para rescatarnos. Al final, no le quedó más remedio que regresar con sus guardaespaldas. Atraparon a los enemigos, pero de las afueras llegaron noticias horribles. La amante de mi hermano había dejado una carta de despedida, y no se sabía si seguía viva o no. En la carta me echaba la culpa a mí, decía que yo había alejado a mi hermano a propósito, y que por eso los enemigos la habían torturado, y al final se había suicidado. Mi hermano, bien frío, quemó su carta y me dijo que no le diera tantas vueltas. Después del incidente, culparon a mi hermano, y mi padre prometió dejarme a mí el manejo de la empresa familiar. Pero, después de que se acabó la cena de celebración, mi hermano me asesinó cruelmente en mi recámara. Con cara de nada, me dijo con frialdad: —Alguien tan malvada como tú ya debería haberse muerto hace mucho. ¡Tú eres la que debería estar muerta, y el derecho de heredar la familia también debería ser mío! Morí con los ojos abiertos, y, cuando «volví en mí», afuera de la mansión se oía cómo los enemigos forzaban la puerta.
