Fort Bend Libraries Hours

Cela faisait cinq ans qu'ils étaient mariés. Un jour, trouvant trop amers les comprimés de vitamine C que son mari lui préparait, Tiphaine, inquiète, s'est rendue à l'hôpital avec le flacon. Le médecin l'a examiné et a secoué la tête : « Ce ne sont pas des vitamines C. » « Quoi ? Vous en êtes certain ? » « Madame, je vous l'ai répété plusieurs fois », a-t-il insisté en désignant l'objet, « Contenu ici : du misoprostol. Une consommation excessive provoquerait non seulement la stérilité, mais aussi des dommages corporels graves. » La gorge nouée, Tiphaine a serré le flacon si fort que ses jointures ont blanchi. « Impossible... C'est mon mari qui me les a préparés. Il s'appelle Gaëtan Cazal, il est aussi médecin dans cet hôpital. » Le regard du médecin est devenu soudain étrange, teinté d'une indéfinissable pitié. Il a eu un rire léger : « Je vous suggère de consulter un psychiatre. L'épouse de Gaëtan, nous la connaissons tous, elle a accouché il y a deux mois. Depuis quand est-il votre mari ? »

A week after I gave birth via C-section, Mark Whitman invited his friends over to celebrate the birth of our son. The crowd was boisterous—more than a dozen people. Not one of them bothered to remove their dirty shoes. The wooden floor was soon covered in muddy footprints. Mark came into the room and, without a hint of concern, ordered me out of bed. "Everyone's waiting outside. Don't just hide here and rest—you're embarrassing me in front of our guests." I had no choice but to push through the pain, forcing my body to prepare a huge meal for the large crowd, all on my own. When I carried the final bowl of steaming soup to the table, Lily Hoyte—whether intentionally or not—jabbed her hand against the wound on my abdomen. My hand trembled from the sudden pain, and the bowl slipped slightly, spilling the hot soup onto Lily's shoes. Mark's face darkened instantly. "What the heck did you do, Cammy? Lily rushed here right after her plane landed from overseas to see our son, and this is how you treat her?" The crowd quickly chimed in. "Come on, Cammy, no need to be so petty." "Mark and Lily grew up together. If there was really something between them, do you think you'd even be here now?" "Do you even know how much those shoes cost? They're limited edition—easily over ten thousand dollars. And you just ruined them." Lily stood up awkwardly, her eyes misting with tears. "If Cammy doesn't like me," she said softly, "then I'll leave. I don't want to be a bother." But Mark grabbed her hand in an exaggerated display of protection, his voice harsh as he turned to me. "Wipe Lily's shoes clean. Right now." His partiality for Lily made something sharp twist in my chest. My lips quivered as I fought back tears. "The wound on my stomach hasn't healed yet. I can't bend over." At that, his expression grew colder. "Don't use childbirth as an excuse. If you can't bend over, then kneel and wipe them. And if you won't, get out of my house!"

Le troisième jour de mon confinement postnatal, mon mari prétendait qu’il devait partir en voyage d’affaires en urgence, me laissant seule pour m’occuper du bébé. Trois jours plus tard, lorsque j’ai été hospitalisée, j’ai vu une photo de famille sur les réseaux sociaux, publiée par l’amie d’enfance de mon mari, avec la légende : « Photo prise en voyage, une famille heureuse de trois. » Sur la photo, mon mari s’est affiché tout sourire. Fort surprise, j’ai commenté par un point d’interrogation. Il m’a immédiatement appelée pour me réprimander : « Elle est une pauvre mère célibataire, sans homme pour s’occuper d’elle. Cette photo ne signifie rien. Ne sois pas mesquine ! » Le soir, son amie d’enfance a posté une nouvelle photo : un ensemble de trois bijoux en or d’une valeur de plusieurs millions. « Après la photo de famille, il a insisté pour m’offrir ces magnifiques bijoux. » C’était un cadeau pour faire plaisir à sa maîtresse, je le savais bien. Enfin, j’ai décidé de quitter mon mari.

I came home a day early from my business trip and hid in the closet to surprise Eric Carter. At seven, he told the housekeeper to cook several dishes. At nine, he told me hoarsely that he had taken a bath and changed the bedsheets in my room. He was sure that I would love it. I did not believe him because I had heard him moaning in bed with Willow Summers for three hours from the closet. Willow Summers was his childhood sweetheart and my sister. I clicked on a webpage from my cell without hesitation. "Miss Summers, your appointment for creating a fake death has been confirmed. Time of Death: One week later Location of Death: The wedding hall on the top floor of the Century Building Cause of Death: Suicide from jumping off a building!"

Upon hearing about my husband's surgery, I braved a typhoon and torrential rain, driving four hours back to the city. When I arrived at the hospital, my husband, Xander Gray, was lying on the hospital bed, calling out loudly, "I want my wife! Get my wife here!" His buddies around him joked about how his wife had him completely whipped. Everyone said he loved me to death. Blushing, I walked over with a happy smile and held his hand, saying, "I'm here." To my surprise, he shook off my hand in disgust and snarled, "Get lost! You're not my wife! My wife is Beverly Long!"

"You may be a monster, but you can't make me do anything, so quit acting like you own me." She said to him pretending he had no effect on her. "Do you need another spanking? Shall I bend you over again and remind you who you belong to as I find the most erogenous zones on your body even you didn't know existed. Shall I remind you whose name you'll scream as you come, if I let you come?" He said, the fiery passion in his eyes betraying his calm voice. Destined to end the war between two packs and be the bride of Alpha Caleb, Davina never thought she'd end up being his Son's luna instead. Keith was exiled years ago for a crime he did commit. But now he was back. And ready to take back all that was rightfully his including that beautiful Davina, even though she'd rather murder him than admit any feelings for him.

At twenty-eight, I held the dubious honor of being the last unmarried socialite on New York's Upper East Side. Everyone around me was growing increasingly anxious about my single status. In my previous life, my mother arranged a matchmaking cocktail party, where I was told to choose a husband from ten handpicked elite bachelors. I bribed the event planner to place Mark West's profile at the very top—and as I had hoped, I chose him. After we married, Mark treated me with what seemed like tender affection. He even bought me an oceanfront villa in the Hamptons, making me believe I had finally found true love. But that illusion shattered the day I was nine months pregnant, just hours away from giving birth. Mark drove a scalpel straight into my abdomen—then, right in front of me, hurled our newborn onto the floor. "If you hadn't forced me into this marriage with your family's power, Sofia wouldn't have been heartbroken enough to go drinking and get drugged and assaulted. This… this is what you owe her!" He tossed the scalpel aside, then calmly let his private doctor pin down my blood-soaked body. I fought through excruciating pain for six agonizing hours, until I finally bled to death. Afterward, Mark dumped my corpse into the Hudson River. But for Sofia, he hosted a grand funeral—funded with my money, under my name—and paraded himself to the world as a grieving, devoted widower. Given a second chance at life, I refused to step foot in that cursed matchmaking event. Instead, I went straight to my mother with a demand: marry me to Robert Black—the most ruthless, cold-blooded titan of Wall Street, whose scarred face was feared by all. In the end, stripped of my financial backing, Mark's hedge fund collapsed. He became a disgraced fraudster, spat on by everyone on Wall Street.

（Alpha Trojan） "Just do it!"My wolf Lupus urged. "You're going to tell to everyone anyway, so just say it now. Tell everyone that Nikita is our Luna." I landed my eyes at Nikita's face.
