Goddess Karma

— Ah... Mais devagar, meu marido está me ligando. Com o rosto em chamas, peguei o celular e atendi à chamada em vídeo. Do outro lado da linha, meu marido, com os olhos fixos, dava uma ordem atrás da outra. Ele não percebia que, fora do enquadramento, a cabeça de um jovem se movia inquieta entre minhas pernas.

After being reborn, the first thing I did was switch my newborn daughter. In my previous life, soon after she was born, a blood test showed her type was AB. But mine was B, and my husband's was O—there was absolutely no way we could have an AB-type child. My husband flew into a rage and demanded a paternity test on the spot. To everyone's shock, the results proved she was biologically related to me, but not to him. He slapped me hard across the face, his voice trembling with disappointment. "I've always treated you well. I only ever loved you—and this is how you repay me?" My mother-in-law wailed and cursed me for cheating, accusing me of bearing another man's child to steal their family fortune. I was completely stunned. I knew better than anyone who the father of my child was—how could she possibly not be my husband's? In no time, everyone turned against me. They called me a cheater, a tramp. My husband divorced me and went online to play the victim, stirring up a storm of hate and harassment that never seemed to end. With nowhere to go and no one left to believe me, I took my baby in my arms and jumped from a building. Even in death, I couldn't make sense of it all. And when I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my daughter was born.

An unserem Hochzeitstag ließ mein Freund Hayden Grant mich aus der Kapelle hinauswerfen. Stattdessen schritt er Hand in Hand mit seiner Jugendliebe zum Altar. Ich ging zurück hinein und brach am Rand des Mittelgangs zusammen. Der Brautstrauß glitt mir aus den Händen, die Blütenblätter verteilten sich überall. Doch sein Blick streifte mich nicht einmal für eine halbe Sekunde. „Selenas Kind braucht einen Vater. Sobald das erledigt ist, heirate ich dich.“ Alle dachten, ich sei eine verblendete Närrin und würde bereitwillig noch einen Monat warten. Schließlich hatte ich bereits sieben Jahre auf ihn gewartet. Doch in dieser Nacht tat ich etwas, das niemand erwartet hatte. Ich stimmte der arrangierten Ehe zu, die meine Eltern vorgeschlagen hatten, und verließ das Land. Drei Jahre später kehrte ich zurück, um meine Eltern zu besuchen. Mein Ehemann William Fields war CEO eines internationalen Konzerns. Als ein unerwartetes, wichtiges Meeting anstand, bat er mich, schon mal zur Firmenniederlassung in meiner Heimat vorauszufliegen. Dort würden sich seine Untergebenen um mich kümmern. Zu meiner Überraschung war einer dieser Untergebenen Hayden – der Mann, den ich seit drei Jahren nicht mehr gesehen hatte. Sein Blick wanderte sofort zu dem funkelnden Diamanten an meinem Ringfinger. „Ist das eine Fälschung von diesem rosa Diamanten, den Herr Fields für fünf Millionen Euro für seine Frau gekauft hat? Ich hätte nicht gedacht, dass du nach all den Jahren so eitel geworden bist.“ „Du hast schon genug Drama gemacht. Komm nach Hause. Selenas Sohn geht jetzt zur Schule, also ist es der perfekte Zeitpunkt, dass du dich um sein Mittagessen kümmerst.“ Ich sagte kein Wort und strich nur mit den Fingerspitzen über den Ring. Er hatte keine Ahnung, dass dies der günstigste aller Edelsteine war, die William mir je geschenkt hatte.

My secretary replaced me on my wedding day, walking down the aisle in a white wedding gown. The man I had loved for ten years threw the bridesmaid dress in my face and ordered me to wear it instead. "She is the bride now. You'll be next," he said coldly. My grandmother was so furious that she fell ill on the spot. Meanwhile, he and the secretary smiled brightly as they completed the wedding ceremony. After the grand wedding, the secretary posted photos of herself in her wedding gown on social media. The comments were overwhelmingly congratulatory. [Today is such a beautiful day, I finally got what I wanted. I hope those who try to ruin someone else's relationship will wake up soon.] She wrote. Chester Morrison replied to her post: [It is a great day. Don't ruin your good mood by some trash.] When I returned home, holding my grandmother's photo, who had passed away, I found them tangled together on the bedspread my grandmother had lovingly sewn for me, the one with a pair of Swan that symbolizes eternal love.

After my mate, Drew Bruce, vanished from the pack warzone, I cared for his gravely ill parents in his stead for three years. In the end, he returns with his wolf missing and a young she-wolf by his side. He begs for the Alpha King to break our mate bond. Drew taunts me, "Jenny Watson, your peaceful life in the pack is thanks to my bloodshed on the battlefield. You'll never be someone like Sherry Lowe, an outstanding physiotherapist, who can fight alongside me. "It's a good thing our mind link has disappeared ever since I lost my wolf. Being with Sherry made me realize how dull you are. "You're useless. If it weren't for the Moon Goddess' guidance, you would've never been worthy of being my mate." When his parents find out, instead of talking him out of it, they fully support his decision. They completely disregard the dedication and sincerity I showed them over three years. Heartbroken, I turn and leave for the field hospital. He has no idea that I come from a long line of healers. When I earn the title of chief field healer with nothing but my own skill, he goes mad with regret.

Isang babaeng pinangalanang Sithya ang nadisgrasya dahilan ng pagkawala ng kanyang memorya, hindi niya alam kung paano mamumuhay ng walang kaalam alam kung sino at nasaan siya. Wala siyang ibang magagawa kundi ang magpanggap at makisama sa mga mageno na napag-alamanan niyang may espesyal na abilidad. Namuhay siyang nagpapanggap na kabilang sa mga naninirahan sa Voreios, lugar kung saan nakatira si Ravus — ang lalaking nagligtas sa kanya, hanggang sa makuha niya ulit ang kanyang memorya. Nang sa gano’n ay makabalik siya sa totoong kanyang pinanggalingan, at hindi iyon Voreios. Naging matunog ang kanyang pangalan sa Voreios dahil sa kanyang pambihirang pisikal na abilidad na kayang makipagsabayan sa pakikipaglaban sa mga mageno kung kaya’t sa maikling panahon ay itinuring siyang isa sa mga mageno kahit walang taglay na espesyal na abilidad. Sa maikling panahon ay marami na siyang nagpadaanan sa loob ng Voreios at pakiramdam niya ay kabilang talaga siya dito. Kaya gumuho ang lahat nang bumalik ang kanyang memorya. Hindi siya si Sithya. Hindi siya taga-Voreios, at lalong lalo nang hindi siya mageno dahil siya si Seffyre Nicolisle Lestridge na isang tao. Siya pala ay mula sa mundo ng mga tao na kinamumuhian ng mga mageno. Nauunawaan niya na kung bakit kakaiba ang kanyang pisikal na abilidad. Iyon ay dahil siya ay hindi lang ordinaryong tao kundi isang agent na hubog sa pakikipaglaban. Ngayon ay kailangan niyang gumawa ng paraan upang makabalik sa mundo ng mga tao na kanyang totoong kinabibilangan habang wala pang nakakaalam sa kanyang lihim. Sa kanyang pagbabalik sa mundo ng mga tao ay nabalitaan niya na ang mundo ng mga mageno ay nasa panganib. Pipiliin niya bang bumalik para tumulong? O manatiling mamuhay ng ordinaryo sa kanyang sariling mundo?

The new project was short on staff. Over everyone's objections, I pulled three former colleagues out of an overlooked department where they'd been warming the bench for years. The four of us became the project's core team. The bonus was generous, the workload light. They all said I was their lucky charm. Three months later, with delivery just around the corner, I passed the break room and overheard them talking. "The biggest credit for this project belongs to the three of us. Why should Chloe get an equal share of the bonus just because she recommended us? She barely did any real work." "Exactly. Let's talk to the director. We'll say all the core work was done by us, that she's not up to the task. We'll apply to have her removed from the contributors list." "Just thinking about not having to split those tens of thousands with her—it feels amazing." I pushed the door open. They stared at me, stunned. I smiled. They wanted to kick me out? Too bad. I was the director who parachuted in to evaluate them.

Istriku punya penyakit migrain bawaan dan setelah tiga tahun menikah, akhirnya aku berhasil mengembangkan obat khusus untuknya. Sambil membawa kotak makan siang, aku bersiap pergi ke kantor istriku untuk mengantarkan obat ini langsung kepadanya. Namun, setibanya di sana, aku malah disangka selingkuhan oleh sekretarisnya. Dia menumpahkan isi kotak makanan di atas kepalaku, lalu merobek bajuku di depan umum, bahkan menginjak satu-satunya obat khusus yang aku punya. "Seorang sopir, berani sekali memakai pakaian yang nggak pantas begini." "Hari ini, aku akan tunjukkan padamu nasib yang pantas diterima oleh seorang selingkuhan." Lalu dengan bangga dia melapor kepada istriku. "Bu Nadya, aku sudah menyingkirkan sopir yang ingin menggodamu, apa hadiah yang akan kamu kasih padaku?"
