No momento da explosão no laboratório, meu namorado, Gustavo Sena, correu desesperado... Mas não até mim. Ele correu até Lívia Cardoso, que estava distante do centro da explosão, e a protegeu com o próprio corpo. Quando o barulho cessou, ele a levou imediatamente ao hospital, nos braços. Nem sequer olhou para mim, caída no chão, coberta de sangue. Aquela garota que ele criou e cuidou por dezoito anos preenchia completamente seu coração. Não havia mais espaço para mim. Meus colegas me levaram ao hospital. Sobrevivi por pouco. Depois de sair da UTI, com os olhos ainda inchados de tanto chorar, liguei para meu orientador: — Professor Luís, eu pensei bem e tomei uma decisão. Aceito ir com você para o projeto de pesquisa confidencial. Mesmo que a viagem seja em um mês, e eu não possa ter contato com ninguém por cinco anos... Está tudo bem. Em um mês, eu me casaria e realizaria um sonho que eu alimentava há muito tempo. Mas agora... Eu já não quero mais.

Demi mencapai standar postur tubuh pramugari, kekasihku memperkenalkanku ke sebuah klinik khusus perawatan tubuh. Namun, di balik pintu ruang dokter, terdengar suara memelas dan jeritan kesakitan yang meningkatkan imajinasi. Saat aku hendak menyerah, aku diseret masuk oleh seorang dokter bertubuh tinggi. Dia mengikatku dengan pose memalukan, lalu mengambil peralatan, mulai membantuku memulihkan kekencanganku.

My adopted sister, Rebecca Lawson, steals the gift I painstakingly prepared for the Don and presents it at a family gathering. Everyone in the room is stunned. So, my parents turned what was supposed to be my engagement party into a celebration banquet for Rebecca. They sit together and raise their champagne glasses to toast her, while I collapse alone in the bathroom, hitting my head and bleeding out. After regaining some consciousness, I use all my strength to call them for help, but only the mafia's consigliere and my fiance—Yves Gilbert—answers my calls. "Tessa, why didn't you come to Rebecca's celebration? She felt hurt by your absence! I know you've always been jealous that she could easily gain everyone's affection, but it's what she deserves. "Quickly come over and apologize to Rebecca. Don't disappoint us any further." Yves hangs up the phone after saying that. I stare at the darkened phone screen with an unsightly smile. They don't know that the gift I have prepared for the Don is still a half-finished product and needs to be repaired. However, I don't have the time to tell them. Because I am about to die of illness.

Two months after I died, it finally occurred to my parents that they'd forgotten to bring me back from their trip. My father scowled in frustration. "She was supposed to walk back herself. Does she really need to make such a big deal out of it?" My brother, ever smug, opened our chat and sent an emoji, along with a message. [You'd better die out there. That way, Scarlett and I will split Grandma's inheritance.] He received no reply. With a frosty expression, my mother said, "Tell her if she shows up for her grandmother's birthday on time, I'll let the whole pushing-Scarlett-into-the-water thing go." They never believed I hadn't made it out of those woods. After digging six feet into the ground, they finally found my bones deep in the forest.

Um die Vernichtung des Meervolks zu verhindern, beschloss ich, an Land zu gehen und meinen Jugendfreund Cyrus zu verführen, der inzwischen zum Alpha-König aufgestiegen war. Wie erwartet liebte er mich immer noch. Drei Tage und Nächte verbrachten wir voller Leidenschaft im Bett. Als ich aus den Freuden erwacht war, konnte ich mich kaum freuen, da er mich bereits mit ätzender Flüssigkeit übergoss. Ich schrie vor Schmerz auf, während Cyrus kalt lachend daneben stand. „Eine unsterbliche Meerjungfrau kann also auch Schmerzen spüren?“ „Das ist erst der Anfang. Solange du das Versteck meiner Eltern nicht verrätst, wirst du keine ruhige Minute haben!“ Er war überzeugt, dass unser Meervolk für das Verschwinden seiner Eltern verantwortlich war. Von da an musste ich zusehen, wie er absichtlich mit seiner Geliebten Emily flirtete; musste die Meerjungfrauen-Perle aus meinem Herzen entfernen, um Emilys Gesundheit zu stärken; musste unter qualvollen Schmerzen barfuß tanzen, um Emily in den Schlaf zu wiegen... Er hasste mich bis ins Mark, doch jedes Mal, wenn ich dem Tod nahe war, nahm er mich auch in die Arme und flößte mir Medizin ein. Mal war er eiskalt: „Glaubst du, ich bin wehrlos, weil ich dich liebe? Wachen, foltert sie weiter!“ Mal war er sanft: „Sei brav und sag mir – wo sind meine Eltern wirklich?“ Stillschweigend ertrug ich seine widersprüchliche Liebe. Bald würde ich das Geheimnis über seine Eltern nicht mehr hüten müssen. Denn wenn eine Meerjungfrau drei Jahre an Land blieb, ohne ins Meer zurückzukehren, verwandelte sie sich unweigerlich in Schaum. Bis zu meinem Tod blieben nur noch drei Tage.

After Dad cheated and divorced Mom, I did not choose Mom, who walked away with nothing. Instead, I chose Dad, who clearly favored his illegitimate son, Oliver Brooks. It was only because after their divorce, Mom's obsession with reconciliation romance novels got me killed twice. In my first life, Mom was so desperate for Dad's respect that she willingly gave up everything in the divorce just to take me with her. In the end, my heart condition flared up, and without money for treatment, I died in agony on that hospital bed. In my second life, I went against Mom's wishes and asked Dad for the surgery money upfront. However, Mom was hell-bent on pushing Dad onto a so-called redemption path, forced me to go bungee jumping the day before my surgery. Dad tried to stop me from jumping, but he was speeding and ended up in a fatal car crash. Mom blamed everything on me. With pure hatred in her eyes, she shoved me off that cliff. "Useless piece of trash! Not only can't you help me win your father back, but you got him killed too. You might as well die with him!" That moment made everything crystal clear: Mom never actually loved me. She just saw me as a tool to get Dad back. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Mom demanded a divorce from Dad, for the third time.

While they slice me apart, I desperately call my brother, Nathan Slade. He finally picks up as my consciousness starts to slip and answers in an annoyed voice, "What now?" "Nathan, help—" I don't get to finish before he cuts me off. "Can't you ever go a day without drama? Gemma's graduation is at the end of the month. Miss it, and I swear I'll kill you!" Then, he hangs up without a second thought. The agonizing pain swallows me whole, and my eyes close for good, tears still trailing down my cheeks. Well, good news, Nathan… You won't have to kill me because I'm already dead.

J'étais enceinte de huit mois, mais mon compagnon Alpha, Damien, m'a enfermée dans une cage en argent au sous-sol pour retarder la naissance de notre bébé. Quand j'ai appelé à l'aide, il m'a simplement dit d'attendre. Parce que la compagne de son frère défunt, Victoria, accouchait elle aussi ce jour-là. Le voyant de la meute avait prédit que seul le premier louveteau recevrait la bénédiction de la Déesse de la Lune et deviendrait le futur Alpha. « Le titre revient à l'enfant de Victoria », a-t-il dit. « Elle a perdu Marcus. Elle n'a plus rien. Tu as déjà tout mon amour, Hélène. La cage en argent garantira que tu accouches après elle. » Les contractions étaient insupportables. Je l'ai supplié de m'emmener à la clinique. Il m'a saisie par le menton et m'a forcée à le regarder. « Arrête de faire semblant. J'aurais dû comprendre que tu ne m'as jamais aimé. Tout ce qui t'importe, c'est la richesse et le statut ! » « Déclencher ton accouchement juste pour voler ce qui revient à mon neveu… Tu es vraiment ignoble. » Pâle et tremblante, j'ai murmuré : « Le petit arrive, je ne peux plus l'arrêter. Je t'en supplie, je ferai un serment de sang. Je me fiche de l'héritage. Je t'aime, c'est tout ce qui compte ! » Il a ricané. « Si tu m'aimais vraiment, tu n'aurais pas forcé Victoria à signer ce contrat pour renoncer aux droits de naissance de son petit. Je reviendrai te chercher une fois qu'elle aura accouché. Après tout, c'est aussi mon petit, là-dedans. » Il est resté planté devant la salle d'accouchement de Victoria. Ce n'est qu'en voyant le nouveau-né dans ses bras qu'il s'est souvenu de moi. Il a ordonné à son Bêta de me libérer. Mais la voix du Bêta tremblait. « Luna… et le petit… ils sont morts. » Et à cet instant, Damien a perdu la raison.
