Primadona sekolah akan menikah tepat di hari libur kemerdekaan. Dia mengundang seluruh teman sekelas di grup kelas agar menghadiri pesta pernikahannya. Awalnya, aku berniat pura-pura tidak melihat undangan itu, tapi ternyata dia langsung menyebut namaku. "Clarisa, waktu SMA kamu selalu pura-pura jadi diriku, tapi aku nggak akan mempermasalahkannya. Aku harap kamu bisa datang untuk melihat pernikahan mewahku besok." Segera setelah itu, beberapa teman sekelas ikut menanggapi pesannya. "Primadona sekolah memang baik orangnya, pantas saja bisa menikah dengan anak dari Keluarga Wirawan. Dia bahkan bisa memaafkan orang sombong seperti Clarisa." "Apa orang seperti Clarisa pantas, menghadiri pernikahan primadona sekolah kita yang akan diadakan di vila? Jadi orang jangan terlalu baik." Mereka makin mengolok-olok Clarisa, hingga si primadona sekolah akhirnya muncul untuk menenangkan suasana. "Sudahlah, itu kan sudah lama sekali, aku juga sudah nggak mempermasalahkannya. Lagipula, Clarisa kan memang miskin dan jelek, kita jangan terlalu mengejeknya." Begitu dia berkata demikian, grup langsung dipenuhi pesan pujian. Orang-orang memuji betapa baik hati dan polosnya dia. Aku tertawa sinis. Dulu, si primadona sekolah itu selalu memasang citra bak putri konglomerat di sekolah. Dia bahkan memfitnahku, yang sebenarnya adalah putri keluarga konglomerat asli, sebagai seorang pembohong. Semua orang di sekolah sampai menghinaku. Saat membuka undangan elektronik darinya, aku baru sadar bahwa alamat pernikahannya berlokasi di vila milik keluargaku. Makin kuamati foto pengantin pria, makin aku merasa familier. Bukankah itu sopir suamiku? Aku tersenyum begitu menyadarinya, lalu membalas pesan di grup. "Baiklah, aku pasti akan datang di acara pernikahanmu."

“Dia adalah anakmu.” Deg! Wanita bergaun hitam itu mematung seketika. Menatap foto hasil USG dengan janin di dalam kantong rahim yang diserahkan oleh Darius padanya. “A--apa kau bilang?”Suaranya tergantung, merasakan pasokan udara di sekitarnya habis seketika sampai dadanya merasa sesak. Dia semakin mengepalkan tangannya sekuat tenaga, menggigit bibirnya kuat-kuat agar tangisannya tak pecah saat itu juga. Sakit yang didera olehnya bertahun-tahun kini semakin bertambah. Maniknya menatap bengis pria yang tengah menatapnya dengan penuh sendu. “Persetan!!! Kembalikan anakku, Biadab!!!” teriaknya nyaring, menerjang tubuh besar itu dan memukulinya sambil terus menangis menjerit, tak kuasa menahan rasa sedih dan terkejutnya. Bahkan dia yang baru saja pulih harus menyadari fakta yang terkuak. Menikahi pria beristri dan kini membunuh calon buah hatinya dengan tega. *** “Ceraikan saja suamimu itu, kau tak bisa berharap apa-apa darinya. Pria itu terlalu pengecut untuk menjelaskan kalau dirinya mandul.” Lakshmi mengangkat gelas kopinya, menyesapnya perlahan sambil menikmati pahitnya. Bahkan wanita yang duduk di depannya itu pun ikut tercengang. "Kau ingin merebutnya dariku bukan?" desisnya. Sontak pertanyaan itu membuat Lakshmi pun tergelak. Menertawakan pertanyaan bodoh itu sendiri. "Hah? Aku? Hahaha! Bahkan aku ingin melihatnya mati terpuruk," tekannya. Dia mengibaskan rambut panjangnya congkak. “Kenapa? Dia mencintaimu Lakshmi. Tak bisakah kau melihatnya?” “Mencintaiku? Aku tak pernah percaya cinta. Bahkan saat dia tega menikahiku di saat aku masih berusia belia.” Lakshmita Arjanti, wanita yang memiliki mimpi besar namun harus kandas karena pada akhirnya dia dijual melalui pernikahan dengan Darius Raymond Mahendra. Dendamnya yang mengakar semakin menambah rasa bencinya sendiri. Bagaimana dia membalaskan dendamnya di saat tahu kalau calon buah hatinya pun dikorbankan tanpa dia tahu?

Mi prometido, Victor Blackwood, es el Don de la mafia que controla el bajo mundo de todo el país con mano de hierro. Para los demás, él es la personificación del poder. Pero para mí… era el amor hecho hombre. Nunca imaginé el precio de amar a un hombre como él. En el Día de San Valentín preparé sus comidas favoritas y lo esperé en casa. Sin embargo, las horas pasaron, el vino se enfrió… y su silla seguía vacía. Con un mal presentimiento, abrí la red social de Queenie Stone, su «hermana adoptiva», quien había publicado: «Solo bastó que le dijera que me sentía sola… para que viniera enseguida. Incluso, aunque derramé vino sobre él, no se enojó. Victor siempre ha sido así… La familia para él es lo primero, aunque eso signifique dejar a su novia esperando. Nunca me falla. Ojalá nada cambie». En la foto, la camisa de Victor estaba empapada a la altura de la cintura, y el pañuelo de Queenie descansaba de manera peligrosa cerca de su entrepierna… Él ni siquiera se había apartado… sino que solo la miraba con ternura. No hice ningún escándalo. Solo le di «me gusta» a su publicación y luego le envié un simple mensaje: «Terminamos.» Pero como siempre… lo ignoró. Después supe que, al ver mi mensaje, él se limitó a comentar: —Vivienne no puede vivir sin mí. Solo está haciendo un berrinche. Si la ignoro un par de días, volverá arrastrándose. Es fácil de contentar. Lo que él no sabía… era que yo solo era fácil porque lo amaba. Pero ahora que decidí irme, no hay vuelta atrás… No importa lo que haga.

“I think it's about time you devour me.” I heard him say and I blinked. What was he talking about? A frown creased my face. His confidence and graceful poise seem to unnerve me. He had something about him I couldn't figure out, yet. “Wh-a-t did you say?” I stuttered, forcing myself to tear my eyes away from his face. He chuckled, then leaned closer to my ears. “I asked when you were going to devour me.” I flinched. What was he playing at? Was he flirting with me so openly? I willed myself to ignore his statement. I had a bigger task at hand to let myself be bothered by a pretty man. I cleared my throat and his eyes were now focused on me. “I have no time for your gimmicks. Excuse me.” I was leaving when I felt his hands draw me back. “You leave only when I ask you to.” He growled and I instantly felt my knees weaken. His voice carries with it some kind of authority. I felt my wolf curl inside of me. I have so many questions racing in my head.

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."

The sound of the liquor bottle breaking echoed against the walls of that room, making her flinched. She gazed into those intoxicated piercing green eyes hovering over her. "Leave from my room right now, Damien," her sapphire orbs filled with tears of terror, whereas her grip tightened on the towel covering her wet bare body but the person before her didn't follow her words. A shiver ran down her spine when he placed his both palms on the glass door behind her, caging her completely. "We will talk tomorrow when you will be sober up but please leave now," she attempted to push him away but her body froze when he pinned both of her wrists above her head, resulting in the towel slipping from her body. Her naked body trembled, both in fear and cold but the blazing rage in those bloodshed green eyes flamed up her being. She tried to wiggle out from his hold until…. "Do you still love him, Zia?" His question stabbed inside her heart like a dagger. Her tears of fear turned into anger. After she submitted every single inch of her to him last night, he was still asking her that question. "What if I said, yes…I still love Dylan then?" She challenged him but immediately hissed in pain when he dug his fingers in her tender skin. "Then I will kill him right in front of you," his cavernous voice husked against her lips but his words glossed her eyes more. How can he be so cruel that he didn't hesitate before thinking about killing his own brother? Her heart clenched when he pressed his lips against her and whispered those words in her mouth. "Because I will be the only person to ruin you in my love, Zia Damien Karlson,"

En vísperas de la boda, la noticia de que la amante del prometido había dado a luz se volvió un escándalo. Julian Espinoza no esperó a que yo lo confrontara y habló con indiferencia. —No fue más que un accidente. Tú encárgate primero de la fiesta de compromiso. —Además, tu papá está en fase terminal de cáncer de estómago. Cancelar la alianza ahora no le conviene a ninguna de las dos familias. Esa misma noche faltó a la cena de compromiso, pero en sus redes sociales subió la foto de un bebé envuelto en mantas. Cuando marqué una videollamada, apareció dándole de comer con un biberón al recién nacido. —Últimamente estoy cuidando al niño y no tengo tiempo para ti. Ya sabes, en mi familia solo queda una rama masculina, el hijo es prioridad. Limpió la leche de la comisura de los labios del bebé y añadió: —Pero tranquila, cuando cumpla el mes lo mando a Inglaterra. En las fiestas importantes basta con que te muestres como si fueras su madre. El lugar de señora de la familia Espinoza siempre será tuyo. Yo me quedé mirando el anillo en su dedo anular, idéntico al mío, y solté una risa. —Este compromiso queda anulado. Él bufó con frialdad: —Armas tanto escándalo por una tontería. No seas tan caprichosa. Colgué de golpe la videollamada y marqué al número privado de su padre. —Dicen que anda buscando nueva esposa, ¿por qué no me considera a mí? Acariciando mi vientre, solté una risa baja: —Después de todo, tengo facilidad para embarazarme; los hijos que usted quiera, se los puedo dar. Qué soledad la de una familia con un solo heredero. Yo misma le daré varios hermanos para que al menos haya ruido en la casa.
