Does The Cat Die

Lorsque le criminel m’a attaquée et tuée, mon père, expert en détection criminelle, et ma mère, médecine légiste en chef, accompagnaient ma sœur Lyne qui participait à un match de tennis. Le criminel, qui avait été arrêté par mon père, cherchait à se venger de lui. Il m’avait coupé la langue avant de s’emparer de mon téléphone portable. Il a composé le numéro de mon père, il a répondu d’un ton glacial avant de raccrocher : « Quoi qu’il se passe avec toi, le match de ta sœur Lyne aujourd’hui est le plus important ! » Un rire ironique s’est échappé des lèvres de ce criminel : « Je pensais qu’ils préféraient leur fille biologique, mais il semble que j’avais tort. Apparemment, j’aurai dû kidnapper ta sœur Lyne. » Sur les lieux de l’accident, mes parents étaient secoués par l’horreur du corps retrouvé. Ils se sont figés, leur esprit n’arrivant pas à assimiler l’image macabre devant eux. Mais jamais, ils n’avaient imaginé que cette victime difforme et torturée, pouvait être leur propre fille.

"Aku hanya tak terima diputuskan begitu saja. Aku bahkan tak tahu letak kesalahanku dimana." Steve memainkan kaleng sodanya yang sudah tandas. "Kau tak memiliki salah apapun," balas Lynn. Rasanya Lynn ingin mengatakan bahwa Rose memang tak pantas untuk Steve, Rose tak pantas mendapat cinta Steve. Namun, kalimat itu hanya menggantung di kepalanya. Dia tak mungkin berani mengatakan hal itu pada Steve. "Aku bisa membantumu ... move on dari dia!" ujar Lynn sontak Steve memandangnya. Tatapannya redup, berkabung luka patah hati. Lynn membalas tersenyum, mengangguk menyakinkan Steve bahwa dia benar-benar bersungguh-sungguh dengan ucapannya. Steve menghela napas kasar. Seluruh jiwanya direbut Rose, apakah masih ada cela melupakannya? Steve bahkan tak yakin dengan dirinya sendiri.

It's been five years since I started trying to win over Zachary Pierce. I even went so far as to have a child through IVF, hoping it would finally make him care. But no matter what I do, I can never reach 100 percent affection from him. It always stays at 99 percent. Sometimes it even drops lower. One day, exhausted and aching, I go looking for him. As I reach his room, I hear laughter coming from inside. "She still hasn't figured out the egg wasn't even hers. The moment the baby was born, Zach's affection score for her dropped to zero." "So what if she finds out? She should be grateful that her face looks so much like Yvonne's. Honestly, I'm done entertaining her. It's exhausting." At that moment, everything clicks. All the hope I've held onto, every sacrifice I've made, they were all just a joke. I turn away and say to the system, "End this for me. Send me to another world."

J'étais en phase terminale d'insuffisance rénale. Le rein le plus compatible qu'on ait enfin trouvé pour moi, mon mari Régis l'a offert à ma sœur Laurine. J'ai refusé la proposition du médecin d'attendre un autre donneur et suis sortie de l'hôpital. Dégoûtée par ces gens, j'ai compris qu'il était inutile de continuer à me battre. Alors j'ai légué à ma sœur toutes mes économies des années passées. Enfin, j'ai vu mes parents sourire. Régis s'épuisait chaque jour à prendre soin d'elle. Loin de m'irriter, je l'encourageais à être plus attentionné. Quand notre fils a demandé si ma sœur pouvait devenir sa maman, j'ai même acquiescé en souriant. Mais pourquoi, maintenant que tout leur a réussi, regrettaient-ils soudain ?

It was a godforsaken dare. If anyone asked Knox why he created a fake profile to mess with the most insufferable bastard alive—his emotionally constipated, tyrannical military captain, Victor Wallace—he’d blame his roommate. Stupid dare. Simple mission. Pretend to be a woman, reel the bastard in, and wreck him. Easy, right? Wrong. What started as a joke spiralled into late-night messages, dangerous vulnerability, and a slow-burning obsession Knox didn’t see coming. Victor wasn’t supposed to open up. Knox wasn’t supposed to care. And yet—here they are, stuck together in a steel tomb of chain-of-command and unchecked tension, where one wrong word could start a fire. It was supposed to ruin Victor. Now it’s ruining Knox. Because when you play games with monsters, don’t be shocked when one starts looking back in the mirror. This was never just a dare. Now it’s war. Read and find out.
