Passei toda a minha vida vivendo à sombra da minha irmã, Juliana, a mulher que todos no círculo dos herdeiros da máfia adoravam e protegiam. Ela não fazia ideia de que eu havia renascido. Assim como na minha vida anterior, ela sorriu de forma doce e gentil, insistindo para que eu escolhesse meu noivo primeiro, fingindo ser atenciosa e generosa. Mas, desta vez, eu recusei. Na minha vida passada, acreditei ingenuamente que ela tinha boas intenções. Casei-me com o homem que ela recomendou, Chester Kane, um herdeiro que diziam estar paralisado após uma emboscada. Abandonei meu direito de herança para me tornar sua cuidadora, seu apoio e remédio contra a solidão. No entanto, não importava a quantidade de carinho que eu desse, o coração dele permanecia congelado. A verdade só veio à tona durante a celebração da gravidez da minha irmã. Quando um assassino de uma família rival apontou a arma para a barriga dela, o homem que não se levantava havia anos subitamente ficou de pé. Ele me empurrou direto para frente do cano. As sete balas atravessaram meu útero. Enquanto eu caía, vi-o puxar minha irmã para seus braços, protegendo-a com o próprio corpo e tomando o último tiro por ela. Só então entendi. Ele nunca esteve paralisado. Sua família nunca o havia abandonado. Ele fingiu estar doente porque o coração de Juliana pertencia a outro homem, e ele se recusava a ficar preso a mim. — Desculpe, Tania. — Ele disse. — Eu menti para você. Mas eu não podia deixar Juliana perder o herdeiro que ela carrega. Vou pagar o que te devo na próxima vida. Quando abri os olhos novamente, estava de volta ao dia em que meu pai pediu que escolhêssemos nossos parceiros de casamento. Desta vez, eu não escolhi ninguém. Mas, naquela época, eram eles que imploravam pelo meu amor.

It's a coalition of parallel worlds trying to survive a new and uncertain phase called marriage. It's the hurting, The loving, It's the sex, The secrets, It's the moment they said I DO. *** Marrying a billionaire and going from rags to riches wasn't at all what Dawn had foretold for herself but when the former becomes the latter, she finds herself sharing vows with a retired fuckboy who has quite the reputation in slutry. However, as time progresses, the newlyweds both realize that; it isn't what happens on the outset that matters, it's the rest of the other days when you have to live in a whole new world called marriage—where sometimes the steamy sex and miscellaneous extravaganzas aren't enough to keep the secrets at bay.

The first time I lived, my sister and I found two dragon eggs. The black one pulsed with raw, untamed power. My sister, Isabella, claimed it without a second thought. The white one was left for me. A cracked, forgotten thing. It held only a whisper of magic. I took it out of pity. Within a year, the black dragon shattered his shell and emerged a man so beautiful it was a curse. He became Isabella's devoted weapon, his power forging her path to godhood. Meanwhile, the white egg fed on me. I poured everything I had into my white egg. My magic, my money, my soul. For ten long years, it gave me nothing. Everyone said to abandon it. But I couldn’t. I was an orphan, ignored by my sister. I just wanted a companion. But as the dark plague swept the lands, the egg I'd nurtured for a decade hatched overnight—while I was dying, he soared past me to save Isabella. He could have hatched years ago. Could have been human all along. But he chose Isabella. He mistook her for his savior. Then I was back to the day it all began. This time, Isabella lunged for the white egg first, afraid I'd take it. I slung my worn satchel of herbs over my shoulder. Turned my back on them both. "You can have them both," I said calmly. "I choose myself." This life, I swore I would have nothing to do with Adrian. But now, he's the one filled with regret, willing to give his own life just to have me look at him one more time.

The train to Centraford was about to depart. That was the ride we'd spent our entire life savings—30 thousand bucks—to get a ticket for. I was gripping my mate, Byron Reynolds's, hand tightly, trying to pull him onto the last train to Centraford. This was the chance I'd waited three long years for. Once we entered Centraford, we could rise from being low-tier civilian werewolves to official Silvren Talons workers—registered, salaried, and numbered. If we missed this train, we'd be stuck forever in Sidersville, a chaotic melting pot, never able to enter the heart of the werewolf city-state. But Byron held us back, refusing to leave without Lisa Peters, who was still down by the river, washing her face. In the very last second before the train took off, I had our friends forcibly drag Byron aboard. We made it to Centraford and became Silvren Talons workers. But Lisa missed her chance. She was left behind in Sidersville and became a rogue, a plaything passed around by countless men. A few years later, she was tortured to death. Byron looked fine on the surface. But on the day of our marking ceremony, he drove a silver blade into my stomach, killing the pup growing inside me, and tore out my heart. His eyes burned red as he growled through clenched teeth, "This is all your fault. You're the reason Lisa never made it to Centraford. "She suffered so much before she died. Why do you get to be happy?" After killing me, he chopped my body up and fed it to the stray dogs. Then I opened my eyes—and found myself right back at the train station, before it departed. This time, I'd wait with him for the woman he loved so much. And I'd make him pay for everything he did to me and my pup.

After being betrayed by her stepsister, Cathleen left the country and went abroad. However, on the day she returned to NYC, she was asked to marry the same man she caught sleeping with her stepsister 3 years ago. Cathleen agreed, as she was marrying the man to save her grandmother and wanted revenge, as well as to cut ties with her family. To her surprise, the man she married wasn't the man who betrayed her 3 years ago; it was a different man she had never seen. What happened to Finn? How will she get her revenge?  Her stepmother and stepsister found out that Finn wasn't the owner of Knight Group, so they devised a plan to make Cathleen marry the lapdog while they found out who owned Knight Group. But with Finn on the run, who then did Cathleen marry? Xavier was dimmed to be a cousin from the farm; little did the mother-and-daughter pair know that he was the big shot they had been looking for.    

Everyone in the pack knew I was in love with the Alpha, Luther Pauley. I had done whatever it took to win him over, even sneaking into his bed more than once. When I turned 18, the pack's seer predicted that Luther was my destined mate. But I refused the marking ceremony and chose to leave the pack instead. Luther looked stunned as he blocked my way out. "If you walk away now, don't ever come back." No one in the pack believed I would really go. They were even making bets about how soon I'd crawl back. "I'm calling three days!" "You're giving her too much credit. I'll wager a bottle of healing tonic that she'll be running back here in three minutes!" I ignored them and went straight to Sawyer Dunn, the Alpha of Graymoon Pack. This time, I swore I would never look back again.

VOLUME 1 TRILOGIA ILHA DO CORVO — Eu não amo você. — murmurei.

Na minha vida passada, usei o filho na minha barriga para forçar Vinicius Martins, cuja família estava falida, a se casar comigo. No dia do nosso casamento, seu grande amor deixou uma carta de despedida e se jogou no mar: [O amor verdadeiro finalmente perdeu para o poder. Eu me rendo.] Vinicius não demonstrou reação ao saber da notícia e concluiu o casamento sorrindo para mim. Mas, no dia do terceiro aniversário do nosso filho, ele nos levou para um mergulho. A cem metros de profundidade, ele arrancou nossos tubos de oxigênio, e meu filho e eu morremos afogados. Depois de morta, vi Vinicius levar meu corpo até o túmulo do seu grande amor como um pedido de desculpas. — Jasmim, eu te vinguei. Você ficará feliz aí onde está? Quando abri os olhos novamente, eu havia voltado para a noite em que o forcei a se casar comigo por causa do bebê.

The moment my best friend, Patrick York, rushed ahead of me into the convenience store and asked for a lottery ticket with that specific string of numbers, I knew he was in the same boat as me. We were reborn. In the past life, Patrick and I were shortlisted for an interview at a Fortune 500 company, but there was only one opening. The day before the interview, I had a sudden urge to buy a lottery ticket. However, because of that, I missed the interview and Patrick got hired. Surprisingly, I got the winning ticket and won 50 million dollars. After my graduation, I enjoyed an easy life by living off interest from the bank. Meanwhile, despite getting hired, Patrick was paid a low wage and suffered daily abuse from his colleagues. In the end, he took out his frustrations on me by pushing me off the rooftop, killing me on the spot. After my death, my girlfriend, Emily Hayward, committed perjury for his sake. She claimed that after a prolonged period of staying home with nothing to do, I was in a bad mental state and leaped off on my own. The two of them profited off my death and became trending influencers, making it big. When I opened my eyes once more, I realized I was back to the day I purchased the lottery ticket.
