"Stop it, Ethan! Stop doing this to me!" I wished I could utter those words, but my body betrayed me. His touch alone made me lose all connection with my senses. Internally, I screamed for freedom as his seductive kisses rendered me tongue-tied. I was tired of being treated like a mere sex toy by this man, yet my body continually danced to the rhythm of his waist. I let him have his way, gasping softly, my lips defying all moral sanity. After a few rounds of pleasure, he pushed himself off me, put on his pants, and walked out the door as if I meant nothing. The realization hit me hard: I shouldn't have let this happen. I should have stood my ground this time and not succumbed to his wishes. I picked up my clothes, the last pieces of dignity left in me. "Ethan!" I yelled, chasing after him. "Please wait!" "What is it, woman?" he halted, looking disgusted by my presence. "We're married, for crying out loud! You can't keep treating me like trash. Tell me what I did wrong. Tell me if there's anything I should change about myself. I'm willing to do anything, please, Ethan. To make this marriage work, I'm willing to do whatever you want. Just don't pick her over me again!" I sobbed, halfway on my knees, begging with my hands clenched to his trousers. --- Elizabeth Douglas, a young heiress, finds herself falling for her father's driver, Ethan Haynes.

Mabait, mayaman at maganda, ganyan ang tingin ng buong mundo kay Charlize Elizabeth Sandejas o Charlie, ang tagapagmana ng Sandejas Shipping Lines. Nasa kanya na ang lahat maliban sa isang bagay-- ang puso ni Gael Estrada, ang ulilang lubos na tinulungan noon ng kanyang mga magulang at ang kaisa-isang lalaking kanyang minahal. Thinking he doesn't want her because of their differences in life, Charlie had spent the last three years of her college life trying to unlove and forget him. Subalit muling bumalik si Gael sa buhay niya bilang kanyang bagong bodyguard. Sa pagkakataong iyon, nagtapat si Gael sa tunay nitong nararamdaman na siya lang ang pinakamamahal nito at wala nang iba. Nang maipit si Charlie sa isang kasunduang hindi naman niya talaga ginusto, lihim siyang nagpakasal kay Gael at nagpakalayo-layo. At nang akala niya maayos na ang lahat sa piling ng kanyang mahal, bigla na lamang siyang iniwan ni Gael sa panahong kailangang-kailangan niya ito. Makalipas ang halos limang taon, muli silang nagkita ni Gael. He is now a billionaire but doesn't have any memory of her. He wants two things from her, her signature on their divorce papers and her company's closure. Papayag ba siya sa gusto ni Gael nang gano'n-gano'n na lang gayong ito ang unang nanakit at nang-iwan sa kanya? Paano niya lalabanan ang galit sa kanya ng dating asawa na hindi niya alam kung saan nagmula? At higit sa lahat, paano niya sasabihin dito ang tungkol sa kanilang anak na bunga ng minsan nilang pagmamahalan na hindi naman nito maalala

Tell us how you managed to capture the heart of these dangerous men?” The host asked. The audience waited for their response. “ Well, I don't think I encountered many obstacles like the rest” Jenna chuckled as she glanced at them. “ He loved me too, let go of his dark side, changed for me. Everything changed when I broke up with him, I…misunderstood him. I waited for eight years thinking he would beg me, but he didn't, then fate brought us back. That was when I learnt his dark side never leaves, always with him…” she laughed. “ But it's too late to run away from him” “ Thank you, Mrs Hindelys. What about you, Miss Kelly?” “ Err… I knew he didn't love me, but still chose to love him, he might be cold and quiet, but his heart whispers a lot, so I chased him and found myself in his trap, unable to leave” Kelly laughed with the audience” That's how I'm struck with your Big boss” “ Hahahaha, that's funny, please Mrs Lisa … how did you end up with Mr Norman?” “ I knew he had an eye for another person, but couldn't stop myself from falling for him… he treated me badly, so I thought he hated me, I decided to stop bothering him, but the thing is, he actually cares for me, he did that to protect me” “ Wow…” the host laughed and moved to the next person. “ What about you, Miss Elizabeth, how did you manage to capture the heart of the greatest doctor” “ I want him, so I got him, he was my boss so I slept with him by mistake, he was drunk and mistook me for his ex. So we're fated” “ Hmmm, I love that, thank you for sharing your wonderful experience with our leaders”

バレンタインデーの夜、私は食卓いっぱいの料理を用意して、矢野純一の帰りを待っていた。 彼は私のことなど一瞥もせず、黙々と荷物をまとめていた。 そして冷たい声で言った。「今年のバレンタインデーは、一緒に過ごせない」 私は何も言わず、黙って蟹を食べ続けた。 深夜、彼の初恋の人がInstagramに投稿した。 写真には、笑顔で純一の背中に寄りかかる彼女と、窓の外に輝く満月が写っていた。 キャプションにはこう書かれていた。【そばにいてくれてありがとう】 私はもう取り乱して問い詰めたりしなかった。淡々といいねを押しただけ。 純一から電話がかかってきた。彼は動揺を隠しきれない声で言った。「変なふうに考えるなよ。次は、絶対に一緒に過ごすから……」 私は数秒間黙ったあと、静かに笑って返事をしなかった。 次？ 純一、もう、次なんてないよ。

Na véspera do meu noivado, uma notícia bombástica explodiu nas redes sociais: a sugar baby do meu noivo tinha acabado de dar à luz. O escândalo estava em todo lugar. Antes mesmo que eu pudesse confrontar Thiago Monteiro, ele se antecipou a explicar com a calma de quem não devia nada: — Isso não passa de um acidente. Concentre-se no jantar de noivado. Além disso, seu pai está em estado terminal. Cancelar essa união agora não seria vantajoso para nossas famílias. Naquela noite, Thiago sequer apareceu no jantar. Em vez disso, postou no Instagram uma foto do recém-nascido. — Tenho cuidado do bebê, então não tenho tempo para você. Na minha família, há gerações só nasce um herdeiro por vez. Essa criança é muito importante. — Disse ele, limpando a boca do bebê com delicadeza, sem culpa. — Mas fique tranquila. Quando o bebê completar um mês, mando para a Inglaterra. Em ocasiões importantes, você pode aparecer como mãe dele. O título de Sra. Monteiro será sempre seu. Fixei o olhar na aliança idêntica à minha, agora um símbolo vazio. Soltei uma risada amarga: — Thiago, é melhor cancelarmos o noivado. Ele riu, carregado de desdém: — Vai causar tudo isso por bobagem? Pare de agir como criança. Sem hesitar, encerrei a videochamada e disquei o número particular de Henrique Monteiro, pai dele. — Ouvi dizer que procura uma nova esposa. Que tal considerar a mim? — Perguntei, acariciando meu ventre com um sorriso irônico. — Tenho fertilidade invejável. Quantos filhos quiser, posso dar. "A família Monteiro sempre teve tão poucos herdeiros que chega a ser melancólico. Acho que está na hora de eu garantir que Thiago ganhe mais alguns irmãos para animar as coisas."

DIa benar-benar butuh jawaban itu untuk kemerdekaannya. “Ayahmu membunuh kakekku.” Getir suara Airlangga tetap membuat Ells cepat membantah. “Tidak mungkin!” Ells merapikan duduknya. Tidak lagi bersandar, dia duduk tegak menarik kakinya mendekat, bersila.

妹は重度のうつ病を患っていて、その症状を緩和できる唯一のものは、いつも一緒にいる愛犬の栗子だった。 でも、妹の症状が再発したとき、栗子がいなくなってしまった。 そして、藤原千夜の初恋の相手がInstagramで新しい投稿をアップした。写真には、栗子が写っていた。 [この子がいてくれると、隣にいてくれてるみたい] 私は頭がおかしくなるかと思うくらい、千夜に電話した。でも、心理カウンセラーの千夜は全く気にする様子がなかった。 「妹は長年病気で苦しんでるのに、数日間栗子を預かっただけで症状が悪化するわけがないだろ。」 家に戻ったら、妹がバスルームで腕を切っていた。 その後、栗子の死体がアパートの敷地内のビルの下で見つかった。その傍らには、千夜が初恋の相手に贈ったネックレスが落ちていた。 私は妹と栗子を葬り、離婚届だけを残して家を出た。 すると、千夜は私を探し出すことに異常な執念を燃やし始めた。

À la veille de mon mariage, la nouvelle selon laquelle la maîtresse de mon fiancé avait accouché s'est répandue partout. Alex Thomas n'a pas attendu que je l'interroge, il a parlé d'un ton désinvolte. « Ce n'est qu'un accident, occupe-toi d'abord de l'organisation de nos fiançailles. » « Et puis, ton père est atteint d'un cancer de l'estomac à un stade avancé, rompre l'alliance maintenant ne servirait ni ta famille ni la mienne. » Le soir même, il a brillé par son absence à la réception, mais il a publié sur Instagram une photo d'un nouveau-né emmailloté. Quand je l'ai appelé en visioconférence, il donnait le biberon à l'enfant. « Je m'occupe du bébé ces jours-ci, je n'ai pas le temps de t'accompagner. Tu le sais, je suis fils unique, l'enfant compte davantage. » En essuyant le lait au coin de la bouche du nourrisson, il a ajouté : « Mais rassure-toi, dès qu'il aura un mois, je l'enverrai à Solméra. » « Aux fêtes, il suffira que tu fasses semblant d'être sa mère devant les autres, et la place de jeune madame Thomas restera toujours la tienne. » J'ai fixé la bague assortie à la mienne qui brillait à son annulaire, puis j'ai éclaté de rire. « Alex, annulons nos fiançailles. » Il a soufflé avec mépris : « Pour si peu tu fais un caprice, ne sois pas si enfantine. » J'ai coupé net la communication, puis j'ai composé le numéro privé de son père. « J'ai entendu dire que vous cherchiez une nouvelle épouse, pourquoi ne pas songer à moi ? » En caressant mon ventre, j'ai souri doucement : « Après tout, la vie m'accorde une nature féconde, je pourrai vous donner autant de fils que vous voudrez. » La maison des Thomas, avec Alex comme unique héritier, paraissait bien vide. Moi, j'allais lui offrir quelques frères pour égayer le tout.
