Foto Smile

La viuda del mejor amigo de mi esposo subió una ecografía. «Gracias por tu esperma. Al fin voy a tener mi bebé.» Abrí la foto y me quedé en shock. En donde decía «padre del bebé», aparecía el nombre de mi esposo: Nelson Navarro. No dije nada. Solo dejé un comentario con un simple signo de interrogación. No pasó ni un minuto y Nelson ya me estaba llamando, furioso. —¡¿Qué te pasa?! —me gritó—. ¡Ella está sola, viuda! Solo quiere tener un hijo para no sentirse tan vacía. ¿Tan difícil es entenderlo? Eduardo fue mi mejor amigo, murió, y yo estoy cumpliendo con él. ¡Eso es lo que hace un hombre que tiene palabra! ¿O tú qué crees? Unos días después, la misma viuda subió otra foto. Esta vez, de un departamento nuevo, todo impecablemente decorado con muebles de lujo. «Menos mal que te tengo. Contigo volví a sentir el calor de un hogar.» En la imagen se veía a Nelson de espaldas, cocinando tranquilo, con el delantal puesto, concentrado frente a la estufa. «Ya está», pensé en ese momento. «Esta relación no da para más».

Suamiku, seorang CEO, mengidap penyakit aneh. Hatinya memilihku, namun tubuhnya justru memilih seorang anak magang di kantornya. Karena itu, setiap bulan suamiku menghilang selama sepuluh hari, dia pergi menemui si anak magang untuk "berobat". “Vera, dokter bilang ketergantunganku pada Sinta itu bersifat fisiologis. Tubuhku yang memilihnya. Tapi orang yang paling kucintai di hatiku adalah kamu, dan akan selalu kamu,” kata suamiku. Untuk meyakinkanku, ia sumpah mati, bahkan rela mengambil daging dari tubuhnya sendiri demi membuktikan cintanya. Mataku memerah. Pada akhirnya, aku tetap melunak. Hingga suatu hari, di usia kehamilanku yang sudah tua, sebuah papan reklame yang diterjang angin kencang jatuh menimpaku. Aku pun keguguran. Aku menelepon suamiku berkali-kali, namun tak satu pun dijawab. Tak lama kemudian, aku justru melihat unggahan pamer dari akun sosial media anak magang itu. [Membuka identitas baru sebagai seorang ibu. Mulai sekarang, kami bertiga adalah keluarga kecil yang bahagia!] Di foto itu, suamiku menatapnya dengan lembut, telapak tangannya mengusap perut anak magang itu. Di tangannya yang lain, tergenggam hasil pemeriksaan kehamilan. Baru saat itu aku sadar, sejak dulu sampai sekarang, baik hati maupun tubuhnya, yang ia pilih bukanlah aku. Pada detik itu juga, aku mengerti bahwa pernikahan kami telah mencapai ujungnya ....

I pulled out my ring and held it in front of him. "I'm calling off our engagement. I won't - won't marry a cheating bastard like you. You can live happily ever after with someone else, like Blair Anderson. Smile, Jayden - you're finally getting rid of me, may you live happily ever after with your dear girlfriend." I said with a fake smile and cold eyes. "Oh, and before I forget, I, Ashley Van Smith, of the Red Moon Pack, reject Jayden Ronan Keller, of the Crimson Pack, as my mate and fiancé, we are hereby no longer related." ******************************************** In which Ashley Van Smith and Jayden Ronan Keller are mated and engaged.

So she wants to end this engagement because he cheated on her, but fate decides to intervene and Jayden suffers from amnesia that only she seems to be able to deal with.

In the midst of her efforts to help Jayden recover, Ashley is faced with a difficult decision. Will she stay by his side and help him through this difficult time, even though Jayden is in love with someone else? Or should Ashley simply let Jayden go?

I stood in the shadows, the scent of pine and frost heavy in the air, watching my mate, Ethan, smile—truly smile—for the first time in years. But not at me. At her. My cousin, Isla. His first love. She sat beside him, warm and glowing, with our pups, Lucas and Mia, curled up against her like she was their real mother. They were laughing, sharing bites of ice-cream cake, the kind Lucas once said made his stomach hurt. I was never meant to be here. I wasn't his choice. He didn't fall in love with me—he was assigned to me. To him, our bond was never about love. It was a political arrangement—an alliance between two packs: his power, my father’s ambition. A tie forged not by hearts, but by bloodlines and borders. He never touched me unless required. He never looked at me like I was his Luna. In that moment, as their laughter echoed under the full moon, I felt the mate bond falter—thin, fading, like breath in winter. And I knew. I had played my part long enough. So I turned away. It was time to severe the bond that was never truly mine. But when he sensed I was really leaving, when the tether between us began to snap, he broke. Dropped to his knees, clutching the pups like lifelines, his voice raw. "Please," he whispered, "don't leave me." Even the pups cried, reaching for me with shaking hands. "Mom, we’re sorry… We didn't mean it. Please don't go."

“Wait.” His voice was soft as he stepped closer. “Who are you?” I turned back to him, my smile never wavering while I tried to slow my heart rate racing. “Oh, it's Emilia Cattaneo from Verona.” I lied. He stared at me, his gaze unwavering. “Funny because last week… you said your name was Juliette” My blood froze. He remembered? No way. My mouth opened. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. You must have mistaken me for someone else.” His smile vanished and I could make out the tick in his jaw. “Don’t lie to me in my house.” ****** He was never meant to fall for her.

They all think I’m the villain. But I might be the only one who can save them. If I survive.

Late at night, my husband came home with a young model. "So, you are the washed-up wife that Mr. Dawson keeps at home?" The girl looked at me with a mocking smile and said. Jay Dawson, my husband, reeking of alcohol, glanced between us with interest. He then hugged the young girl and led her into the bedroom. I sat alone on the living room couch, wrapped in a blanket, and listened to their shameless noises all night. I endured it for two years. Our agreement had finally ended this year, and so had my love for Ethan. I walked away. But Ethan chased after me like a madman.
