Did Coryxkenshin Die?

The Clan Healer told me that without the vial of Progenitor's Blood, the Blood Blight afflicting me meant I had only seventy-two hours to live. But my husband, Miles, the new Duke of our world, gave the only vial of the precious cure to my adopted sister, Vivienne, the woman I had turned three years ago. "She's in agony from the rejection, Isolde. It's a pain you can't possibly understand." His tone was self-righteous, devoid of any concern for the patch of skin on my collarbone already turning to stone. I nodded, watching as the life-saving, dark red liquid slid down another woman's throat. I accomplished a great deal in the time I had left. As I signed the documents, the lawyer's hand trembled. "Are you certain you want to transfer everything, Your Grace? The territorial rights of a thousand-year-old clan..." I didn't hesitate. "Yes. To Vivienne." My adopted daughter, Lily, the girl I had risked everything to save, who was now forever frozen at the age of eight, cowered in Vivienne's arms, pointing at me and screaming, "Aunt Vivienne is my real mommy! You're the witch who turned us into monsters!" I offered no defense. "Yes, that's right. Be a good girl and listen to your new mother now." The Progenitor's Ring, the symbol of the clan's supreme authority, now rested on Vivienne's hand. "Oh, sister, you're too kind," she sobbed, her sobs a practiced performance. "I'll be sure to protect the family in your stead." I nodded. "You'll run things better than I ever did." I even signed away my control over the Elder Council, a council sustained by my own blood. For the first time in a century, a shadow of complex emotion crossed Miles's face. He stared at me,"Isolde, stop fighting. It's better this way. You need to rest." Yes. On my deathbed, I had finally become the perfect, submissive Isolde they always wanted. An Isolde who was about to turn to dust. The seventy-two-hour countdown had begun. I wondered, when I finally turned to ash,

Cuando Samuel Ledesma trajo a su nueva amante a casa por décima octava vez y hicieron el amor frente a mí, yo solo me limité a recoger en silencio la ropa que habían dejado tirada por todo el suelo. Sabía que eso era su venganza. Hace cinco años, sufrió un secuestro y estuvo a punto de morir. A pesar de sus súplicas desesperadas, yo decidí romper con él y marcharme del país. Cinco años después, se convirtió en el presidente de una empresa que cotizaba en bolsa y usó su dinero para mantenerme a su lado como su asistente. Cada cierto tiempo, traía a diferentes mujeres a casa y me mostraba, justo delante de mí, lo enamorados que estaban, solo para humillarme. Pero él no sabía que la persona que lo salvó de los delincuentes hace cinco años fui yo, y que la que no ha podido olvidarlo durante estos cinco años también era yo. Hasta que esta vez, la mujer que trajo a casa fue mi prima Judith, a quien yo había financiado durante años. Cuando ella, con una sonrisa de triunfo, acariciaba su vientre y me dijo que estaba embarazada de Samuel, yo simplemente la felicité con calma. Luego me di la vuelta y marqué un número. —Hola, respecto al proyecto de apoyo médico en la zona epidémica del que hablamos antes, ya lo he pensado bien. Estoy dispuesta a unirme.

During the holidays, Ellie Harper, my wife who's a hospital director, tells me once again that she has taken on a few operations at the last minute, so she can't go home with me to spend time with my parents. But soon, I see her assistant, Jaiden Roth's social media feed. Apparently, Ellie is slaughtering pigs at Jaiden's village in preparation for a holiday party. The caption writes, "Dad says having a daughter-in-law who works as a doctor is amazing. To think that she's this skilled in slaughtering pigs as well!" With a cold smirk curling on my lips, I leave a like on the post. I also comment, "That's her major, after all." My colleagues keep gossiping among themselves in various group chats. They all think I'll definitely get into a huge fight with Ellie this time. Ellie wastes no time in calling me. I can already imagine the impatient look on her face and the way her brows are drawn into a tight frown. "Jaiden's village is hosting a huge party for the holidays, so I'm there to lend them a helping hand! What's with that passive-aggressive tone of yours, huh? "There isn't anyone who can help out in his household, you know! Do you know how badly it'll reflect on his family if no one from his side helps out at all? I was just helping him out as a friend! What's there to kick up a fuss over? "Hurry up and remove the like and the damn comment! Don't make life difficult for Jaiden at the hospital, you hear me? "Once I get back from the village, I'll pick a good date to go back to your hometown with you, okay?" Another empty promise from Ellie, it seems. All she does is making empty promises that she can never keep nowadays. I'm completely stuffed with those promises, and I can't afford to wait for her anymore. Once the holidays are over, I'll receive the divorce certificate marking the end of our seven-year marriage once and for all.

Le jour de mon mariage, mon fiancé a eu une liaison avec ma sœur Isabelle Bernard dans le salon de repos, et ils ont été surpris sur le fait. Je suis devenue la risée de tous, mais mon ami d'enfance Alex Thomas m'a demandé en mariage publiquement et m'a défendue. Après le mariage, il m'a obéi en tout. Malheureusement, notre vie sexuelle n'a jamais bien fonctionné. Ce n'était qu'après avoir fait une FIV cette année que je suis tombée enceinte. Après cela, il m'a choyée de toutes les manières possibles. J'ai cru qu'il était enfin mon véritable refuge. Jusqu'au jour où j'ai entendu sa conversation avec un ami. « Alex, tu es trop cruel. Léa Bernard est si gentille avec toi. Comment as-tu pu échanger les ovules pour que Léa porte l'enfant à la place d'Isabelle, simplement parce qu'Isabelle a peur d'accoucher ? » « Et l'enfant va naître dans deux mois. Qu'est-ce que tu comptes faire ? » Il s'est tu un instant et a poussé un soupir. « Une fois l'enfant né, je le remettrai à Isabelle pour réaliser son rêve de devenir mère. » « Quant à Léa, je lui dirai que l'enfant est mort. » « Je resterai avec elle pour le reste de sa vie. » Alors c'était donc ça. Toute la tendresse que je croyais sincère n'était destinée qu'à elle. Je suis allée prendre rendez-vous pour un avortement. Je n'ai plus voulu de cet enfant impur. Je n'ai plus voulu de ce mariage mensonger non plus.

En la etapa terminal de mi insuficiencia renal, mi esposo le dio a mi hermana menor el único riñón que se adaptaba a mí. Rechacé la propuesta del médico de seguir esperando por otro riñón y me di de alta anticipadamente. Después de tanto dolor y desilusión, ya no tenía fuerzas para seguir luchando. Le entregué a mi hermana menor toda la fortuna que había construido durante estos años y, por fin, pude ver a mis padres sonreírme. Mi esposo quería cuidarla día y noche sin descanso. Pero yo solo no me enojé, sino que le aconsejé que fuera muy atento con ella. Incluso, cuando mi hijo dijo que quería que mi hermana fuera su mamá, también asentí sonriendo. Todo salió como ellos querían... entonces, ¿por qué ahora se arrepentían?
