Ivone Marques foi como tantas mulheres que só despertavam depois de serem esmagadas pelo amor: ela tentou, com todas as forças, fazer um homem como Fabiano Moraes se apaixonar por ela. Mas, depois de três anos de casamento, os dois viviam como completos estranhos. Quando Ivone ficou entre a vida e a morte, vítima de uma armadilha cruel, Fabiano, em vez de estar ao lado da esposa, acompanhava a antiga paixão da vida dele. Ivone decidiu arrancar aquele homem do coração, ainda que isso rasgasse a alma dela. Só que ela não imaginava que aquele sujeito, acostumado a mandar em tudo e em todos, não ia aceitar ser descartado tão fácil. Ele passou a rondar a vida dela como um fantasma insistente, se aproximando passo a passo, afastando qualquer outro homem que tentasse chegar perto e fechando todas as rotas de fuga dela. — Lá atrás, foi você que fez questão de se casar comigo. Enquanto eu não disser que a gente se divorciou, você não vai sair da minha vida nunca! — Declarou ele, certo de que ainda mandava nas regras do jogo. Ivone o encarou com frieza e respondeu: — Sinto muito. Sr. Fabiano, você já foi chutado pra fora do jogo por mim faz tempo. Quem decide o divórcio sou eu. Se eu digo que acabou, acabou.

Me quedé mirando el contrato matrimonial de los Vercetti que mi padre empujó sobre la mesa. Sin pensarlo dos veces, escribí el nombre de mi media hermana, Demi, y se lo devolví deslizándolo. Mi padre se quedó de piedra, antes de que entonces sus ojos se encendieron con una emoción tan absurda que parecía que acababa de ganarse la lotería. —¿Cómo puedes darle a tu hermana una oportunidad tan perfecta? En mi vida pasada, mi matrimonio había sido el chiste de todos. Yo era la pelirroja indomable, la brujita salvaje que se atrevió a meterse en la órbita de Cassian Vercetti, heredero y líder de la familia criminal Vercetti, de sangre vieja. Nunca fui perfecta ni obediente. Mientras a él le encantaban los vestidos de diosa, yo usaba minifaldas y bailaba arriba de las mesas. Él exigía una intimidad misionera: tradicional, ordenada, correcta. Yo quería subirme encima, montarlo, perderme por completo. En una gala, las esposas de la alta sociedad se reían de mi cabello, de mi vestido, de mi «“salvajismo». Pensé que, al menos, él fingiría defenderme; pero no lo hizo. —Perdónenla. Ella no está… debidamente entrenada. «¿Entrenada? Como un perro.» Me había pasado toda mi vida pasada asfixiándome bajo sus reglas, doblándome hasta sangrar para encajar en la forma que él quería… hasta la noche en que nuestra casa se incendió. Tras lo cual, cuando volví a abrir los ojos, me di cuenta de que había regresado al instante exacto en que me enteré del matrimonio arreglado. Miré el contrato frente a mí. «¿Otra vez? Creo que a mí me quedan mejor los chicos de la discoteca». Pero en el momento en que Cassian se dio cuenta de que la novia no era yo, rompió cada regla por la que había vivido.

I struggle with all my might, but Dad restrains me, and Mom breaks my limbs. Then, my sister seals me into the concrete. "Concrete is only brought to life with an actual person sealed inside. It looks so much more defined! It's not like you'll die after being sealed in there for a few days. How can you be so insensible?" The pain of having my limbs broken and my oxygen being cut off leads to me dying within that block of concrete. My body rots and festers inside, but my soul sticks around to watch how my parents dote on their adoptive child. They seem to be happy without me. Finally, I lose all hope in them. But when the liquid from my body seeps out of the concrete, they all lose their minds.

When I complained about the summer heat, he led his warriors to conquer the Blue Lake Pack, just to build me a private summer retreat. When I longed for romance, he lit the sky with fireworks and said, "Julie, I swear to the Moon Goddess, I will never betray you for as long as I live."

A lace dress, one that wasn’t mine.
