Xalara Silvyn, a seemingly powerless girl from the Shadowveil slums, is claimed as a fated mate by Cassian Holt, heir to a powerful noble house of ember magic. After being brought to his estate, she discovers their bond was merely Cassian's temporary fascination. At his engagement gala to Vionna Kress, he publicly betrays Xalara, relegating her to servitude under his cruel fiancée. As Vionna systematically humiliates Xalara, the crystal pendant Xalara found in a hidden chamber beneath the Veil becomes her sole comfort. With help from Cassian's brother Verin, she learns the crystal may connect to House Silvyn—a noble family of essence-based primal magic supposedly destroyed centuries ago. When Vionna arranges to transfer Xalara for potentially fatal bond severance after her wedding to Cassian, Xalara's desperate situation takes an unexpected turn. During the wedding feast, she encounters Lord Elaric Nox, a feared shadow magic tyrant avoiding political marriage proposals. After overhearing his frustrations with traditional arrangements, Xalara's impulsive quip "Where do I sign?" intrigues him. Elaric's emissaries arrive at the wedding with a formal offer—a contract marriage of mutual benefit. Elaric gains a shield against political marriage pressure while offering Xalara protection from Vionna and access to knowledge about her crystal and heritage. Their three-year contract specifies a purely practical arrangement with no emotional obligations. At House Nox, Xalara begins training in essence magic under Elaric's guidance, discovering her "minor" warming ability is actually rare primal magic thought extinct. As she awakens to her true abilities and learns about her possible connection to House Silvyn, the bond with Cassian naturally fades. Meanwhile, a complex but respectful dynamic develops between Xalara and Elaric as they navigate their unconventional arrangement.

When Asher Terrell's family crumbled into bankruptcy, I stood steadfast by his side. We lived in a dank basement, where I toiled through three jobs to help clear their crushing debts. He bounced back and proposed, promising me a true home. Three years into our marriage, I discovered the deed to our house bore the name of his first love. "This is what I owe her," he confessed. Swallowing my pain, I nodded and pushed forward a photo from back when we were crammed in that basement, with a whole table piled high with debt notices. "You've paid your debt to her with our house," I said. "But what about the debt you owe me?"

Di layar besar aula pernikahan, foto prewed-ku menghilang. Yang muncul justru hasil pemeriksaan kehamilan milik asisten tunanganku. Pada bagian nama ayah, tertulis jelas nama pria yang seharusnya menjadi suamiku. Asisten itu tampak panik dan terisak sambil meminta maaf kepadaku. Sementara pria itu menjelaskan dengan wajah tenang, seolah tak terjadi apa-apa, “Dia hamil di luar nikah, hidupnya sangat menyedihkan. Jadi aku menemaninya saat periksa kehamilan dan menulis namaku. Ke depannya, aku akan tetap menjadi ayah asuh anak itu.” Tapi sebenarnya di hari yang sama, aku juga melakukan pemeriksaan kehamilan pertamaku. Para tamu mengira aku akan cemburu dan mengamuk. Namun aku hanya melepas kerudung pengantinku, lalu membuat janji pada dokter untuk menggugurkan kandunganku. “Wanita hamil tanpa suami memang menyedihkan,” ucapku datar. “Pernikahan ini memang seharusnya diberikan untuknya.” Aku lalu mengangkat gelas, tersenyum tipis, dan memberi selamat kepada mereka. “Selamat menempuh hidup baru. Menikah karena sudah terlanjur hamil.”

No dia em que sofri um aborto espontâneo e uma hemorragia grave, meu marido postou no Instagram Stories a foto dos pezinhos de um recém-nascido. Legenda: "Bem-vindo, meu anjinho. O papai sempre vai te proteger." Com as mãos trêmulas, liguei para ele: — Perdi o bebê... Você pode vir ao hospital? Do outro lado da linha, o choro de um bebê se misturava à voz impaciente dele: — Nesse caso, cuide-se. A Isabela acabou de dar à luz e precisa de mim. Não posso sair. — E já que o seu morreu, não tente disputar atenção com quem está vivo, entendeu? Ele desligou abruptamente. Sozinha na cama do hospital, desabei em prantos. Depois de enxugar as lágrimas, disquei o número de Lucas Soares, o arquirrival dele. — Case comigo. Todo o Grupo Lima será seu. Só quero que você derrube o Felipe Moreira. Aceita?

Tepat pada peringatan sepuluh tahun pernikahan kami, juga bertepatan dengan ulang tahun kesepuluh anakku, aku sudah menyiapkan rencana sejak sebulan sebelumnya. Aku merencanakan perjalanan wisata keluarga bersama suami dan anakku. Namun, menjelang hari keberangkatan, ayah dan anak itu justru menghilang begitu saja. Tinggal aku seorang diri berdiri di jalanan yang diguyur hujan deras, menelepon mereka berulang kali. Di seberang sana, terdengar suara anakku yang masih kekanak-kanakan, dingin dan tak sabar. "Papa lagi temani Tante Brittany makan, kami nggak mau pergi lagi." Telepon itu ditutup dan aku langsung diblokir. Ayah dan anak itu sengaja mengunciku di luar rumah, membuatku kedinginan semalaman penuh. Ditambah dengan hujan deras semalam, malam itu juga aku demam tinggi hingga menderita pneumonia. Sementara ayah dan anak itu justru sibuk berlibur bersama Brittany, bahkan mengambil foto liburan keluarga. Kali ini, aku tahu bahwa pernikahan ini benar-benar telah sampai di ujung jalan.

Estuve cinco años casada con el heredero de la familia Romano, la más poderosa del crimen organizado en Italia. Cada noche, me abrazaba y susurraba: —Solo dame un heredero, y le daré todo el imperio Romano. Pero nunca quedé embarazada, y la decepción del jefe de la mafia hacia mí crecía con cada mes que pasaba. Hasta que descubrí que mi esposo había estado cambiando a escondidas mi ácido fólico por pastillas anticonceptivas. Aún me tambaleaba por la furia cuando vi una publicación de su exnovia: una foto de ultrasonido. Su mensaje era dulce y presumido: —Diez semanas. Vincent dice que no puede esperar para conocer al bebé. Al ver la avalancha de felicitaciones, tomé una decisión. Busqué los datos de contacto de mi exnovio, aquel que había pasado los últimos cinco años intentando recuperarme, y le envié un solo mensaje: "Dame un mes. Luego voy contigo."
