Donna Forte

La haine, avec le temps et la compréhension, se mue en amour, mais cet amour pourrait s'avérer fatal. Dans un monde de meutes de loups-garous rivales, Alexis doit épouser Ryker, le futur Alpha qui fut son meilleur ami d'enfance jusqu'à ce qu'il l'abandonne brutalement à treize ans. Depuis, elle le hait, ignorant qu'il a rompu tout contact pour la protéger d'une prophétie annonçant une tragédie. Face à un ennemi impitoyable qui menace la survie des deux meutes, leur mariage arrangé est le seul moyen de sceller une alliance. Contraints de vivre ensemble, de vieilles blessures se rouvrent, des étincelles interdites s'allument et Alexis rêve de vies antérieures où elle et Ryker étaient des amants maudits, morts avant d'avoir pu sceller leur union. Ce sont des âmes réincarnées, condamnées à revivre un amour tragique à travers les âges, tandis que l'ancienne sorcière qui a jeté le sort se nourrit de leur chagrin. Pour briser le cycle, ils doivent se faire confiance et sceller leur lien, au risque de mourir une fois de plus.

I'm married to Don Vincenzo Corleone of the Corleone family for five years. During those years, I'm the Donna whom everyone is envious of. But only I know that his love doesn't belong to me anymore. Vincenzo no longer takes me to core family gatherings. Our home is filled with photos of him and his childhood sweetheart, Lina Villo. At the banquet, Lina, who has won an award with the recipe she has stolen from me, nuzzles against Vincenzo's chest while receiving everyone's congratulatory wishes. Meanwhile, I get berated by the same man in public. Even when I get kidnapped, Vincenzo chooses to not save me just because he wants to take care of Lina. I've given Vincenzo five years of my love, only to end up with nothing good. So, I delete all of his contact information and board the ship meant for Castelloro. Vincenzo, I'm not going to pine for the genuine love and respect you owe me anymore. Let's not see each other again for the rest of our lives. We don't owe each other anything anymore.

Eu estava no meio de uma conferência internacional quando o telefone da Helena tocou. Do outro lado da linha, ela chorava: — Mana, roubaram a minha vaga de intercâmbio... Fui direto para a escola. Encontrei minha irmã encurralada no canto do gabinete, com os olhos cheios de lágrimas. Uma garota de cabelo rosa, maquiagem carregada, apontava o dedo para ela com arrogância: — Vai competir comigo? Eu sou filha da Família Almeida de São Paulo! Meu pai acabou de doar um prédio inteiro de laboratórios para a escola! Quem é você na fila do pão? Até o professor Ricardo entrou na conversa: — Clara, a Cecília é filha da Família Almeida. Seja sensata e não traga problemas para todos nós. Eu já ia retrucar, mas o título "filha da Família Almeida" me fez parar. Família Almeida de São Paulo? Desde quando meu pai tinha outra filha além de mim e da Helena? Na hora liguei para ele e falei, com sorriso frio: — Pai, desde quando você tem outra filha fora do casamento?

No oitavo ano de seu relacionamento com Henrique Machado, Bruna Castro foi internada devido a uma doença. No dia em que recebeu alta, Bruna ouviu por acaso, no corredor, a conversa entre Henrique e a irmã dele. — Henrique, você enlouqueceu? Você realmente escondeu da Bruna que doou a medula óssea dela para Olívia? — Você sabe muito bem que a saúde da Bruna não é boa, ainda assim mentiu dizendo que era apenas uma gastrite para fazê-la correr esse risco? Olívia Batista era a amiga de infância que Henrique amava há muitos anos. Bruna não chorou nem fez escândalo. Ligou para os pais, que estavam no exterior, e concordou em se casar com alguém da Família Viveiros...

Adrian Keller a manqué l’occasion de dire au revoir à la femme qu’il aimait, pour n’en sauver une autre que par un coup du destin. Le devoir le lie à Elena Laurent, mais l’orgueil, le secret et la maladie les éloignent. Des années plus tard, elle revient—plus forte, vivante et indépendante.

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.

His eyes returned to me—slow, assessing. Then, without warning, his hands shot up and clamped around my throat. I gasped, instinctively clawing at his arms. He didn’t move. “Disobey me again,” he said, voice low, stripped of warmth, “and we won’t be counting next time.” Even shaking, I lifted my chin. “Then don’t mistake silence for obedience,” I said hoarsely. Carlino’s voice followed—calm, absolute, as if nothing had happened. “Lock her floor tonight.” That was when it settled. There was no mercy here. No exaggeration. Every word, every threat—he meant them. He wasn’t pretending to be the devil. He simply didn’t bother hiding it. --- She hates him. He refuses to let himself want her. Lina Gray never thought love would betray her. Until the man she trusted, traded her life to pay his debts. Delivered into the hands of Carlino Lacentra, the Mafia king whose name ends conversations. Lina is stripped of choice and crowned Donna to secure a throne she never asked for. In his world, power is law, loyalty is currency, and a woman beside the king is never just a woman.

My fated mate, Alpha Cullen, fell for the lies of his first love, Donna, and planned to kill me. But in a twist of fate, we were ambushed by rogues and died together. But with his last breath, he whispered another woman's name: Donna. In that moment, I knew the truth—it had always been her, his real love. When the Moon Goddess gave me a second chance, I was reborn on the day I first met him. One look at the hatred in his eyes, and I knew: he had been reborn, too. So before he could speak, I rejected him in front of the entire pack. Years later, when we met again, he sneered that I was nothing more than a pathetic rogue who tinkered with flowers. But he didn't know I had found a new mate: Orton, the Alpha of Alphas. It wasn't until our son ran to me, wrapping his little arms around my leg and crying, "Mommy!" that Cullen's façade finally shattered. He grabbed my arm, his voice cracking as he begged, "This can't be happening! I'm your fated mate! You still love me… right, Juliet?"

For five years, Marco Falcone was the perfect man. Or so I thought. The illusion shattered on the night of our engagement party, when his mistress crashed it, a five-year-old boy in tow. The boy ran straight to Marco, crying, "Daddy! Daddy, I finally found you!" It had to be some kind of sick joke. But then Marco turned to me, his voice stripped of all warmth. "This is my son, Leo. A… mistake Sofia and I made five years ago." "Leo is the Falcone heir. I have to legitimize them. That means I'll be engaged to Sofia first." "But Lydia, believe me, I still love you. We can have our engagement party in six months. You're going to be the Donna of the Falcone family. I expect you to be generous and understanding. This is non-negotiable." I laughed, a cold, sharp sound, and slid the engagement ring off my finger. My eyes scanned the room and locked on the man in the corner—Lorenzo Moretti, the most powerful Don in New York. He held another title, one only I knew: the man who’d been trying to make me his. "Don Moretti," I called out, my voice clear and steady. "I find myself in need of a new fiancé. Are you interested?"

I was Don Victor’s secret wife for five years, hidden away like a dirty little secret. He made me a promise. Give him an heir, and he’d show me to the world. I’d be the Donna everyone envied. But there was a catch. A lie. His doctor told me I was barren. Victor held me while I sobbed, kissing my face. "Baby, we can still do IVF. I want a child from you. Only you." So I took the pain. Five years. 999 needles. I was finally pregnant on Christmas Day. I ran to his office to share the news, only to find him buried deep inside another woman. Julia. A Mafia princess from another family. The betrayal hit me. I turned to leave, tears in my eyes, but then I heard a truth I couldn't escape. "Don't you worry, my princess. The baby in Maria's belly? It's ours. Your egg, my sperm. She’s just the perfect vessel." My hand trembled. I backed away, silent. Then I made a call. A lawyer. "I don't care what it costs. I want a divorce from Don Victor."
