What is it you truly desire? Is it money? Is it power? Fame? Perhaps you lust for passions of the flesh? Well I have all of those and more.

Now, of course, mines isn’t the life you envision for yourself when they ask you what it is you want to be when you grow up but my life - as seemingly perfect as it was – changed the day I met….

Saat aku berusia tujuh tahun, wanita cantik yang dibawa pulang oleh ayahku memberiku sekotak mangga. Hari itu, sambil melihatku menyantap mangga dengan lahapnya, ibuku membubuhkan tanda tangannya di atas surat cerai, lalu melompat dari gedung untuk mengakhiri hidupnya. Sejak saat itu, mangga menjadi mimpi burukku seumur hidup. Oleh karena itu, di hari pernikahan kami, aku berkata kepada suamiku, Edwin Faresta, "Kalau suatu saat kamu mau cerai, kasih saja aku buah mangga." Suamiku memelukku tanpa mengucapkan sepatah kata pun. Namun, sejak saat itu, mangga juga menjadi hal yang tabu bagi dirinya. Pada malam Natal di tahun kelima pernikahan kami, teman masa kecil suamiku meletakkan sebuah mangga di atas meja kerjanya. Hari itu juga, suamiku mengumumkan pemutusan hubungan dengan teman masa kecilnya, Rani Delana dan memecat Rani dari perusahaan. Pada hari itu, aku merasa bahwa dialah pria yang memang sudah ditakdirkan untukku. Hingga setengah tahun kemudian, aku kembali dari luar negeri setelah berhasil menegosiasikan kontrak kerja sama senilai dua triliun. Di pesta perayaan itu, suamiku menyodorkan segelas minuman kepadaku. Setelah aku meminum setengahnya, teman masa kecil suamiku, yaitu wanita yang dulu diusirnya dari perusahaan itu, berdiri di belakangku dan bertanya sambil menyeringai, "Apa jus mangganya enak?" Dengan wajah penuh rasa tidak percaya, aku menoleh ke arah Edwin, suamiku. Namun, Edwin justru menahan tawa dan berkata, "Jangan marah ya. Rani bersikeras memintaku untuk mengerjaimu sedikit." "Aku kan nggak kasih kamu buah mangga. Aku cuma kasih kamu sebotol jus mangga saja." "Lagi pula, menurutku Rani benar. Kamu nggak mau makan mangga itu cuma karena kamu banyak tingkah aja." "Lihat sendiri, 'kan? Tadi kamu meminumnya dengan sangat senang." Wajahku langsung menjadi dingin. Aku mengangkat tangan dan menyiramkan sisa jus mangga itu ke wajah pria itu, lalu berbalik pergi. Ada beberapa hal yang selamanya tidak akan pernah menjadi bahan candaan. Mangga bukan sekadar lelucon dan niatku untuk bercerai juga bukan candaan.

Aku menarik sabuk pengamanku erat-erat, memegang sandaran kursi penumpang dengan satu tangan dan dipeluk erat oleh pria di belakangku sementara aku sedikit menangis tersentak. Tubuhnya yang tinggi memeluk erat tubuhku yang ringkih, tangannya yang membelai pinggangku membuat tangisan dan napasku semakin sesak. Akhirnya aku tidak tahan dan memohon, “Jangan, jangan di sini, ya?” “Jadi ke rumahmu? Hmm?” Suaranya begitu dekat hingga tubuhku langsung melemas saat mendengarnya, aku memalingkan kepalaku, tidak berani menatapnya dan hanya berkata, “Baiklah.”

By my third month on the job, I discovered that my coworkers had been calling me "the old crow" behind my back. The nickname came from none other than Jace's condescending secretary—because at 32, I was still clutching onto an eight-year relationship that hadn't ended in marriage. I confronted Jace. "Do you know your employees have been calling me the old crow?" He didn't even bother to look up. "That's just Sadie—she speaks her mind and means no harm. You're 32; why get so worked up over what a young girl says?" Then he gave me a faint, mocking smile. "Though honestly, it's a pretty fitting nickname." It felt like a cold hand had wrapped around my heart. So that was it—eight years of my youth, nothing more than a joke to him. I turned and walked away, handed in my resignation, and blocked every way he could reach me. But for the first time, the man who had always seemed so calm and untouchable finally panicked. "Elara," he pleaded, "please come back."

La boda con Diego Velázquez, heredero al reino, se vio empañada por la tragedia. María de Mendoza, la hija adoptiva de Lola —la nana que había cuidado a Diego desde niño—, se quitó la vida. La encontraron ahorcada, vestida con un traje de novia. El vino de la boda resbaló de las manos de Diego. Tras un largo silencio, soltó con voz fría, sin una pizca de emoción: —Dale una buena suma de dinero a Lola. Y asegúrate de que María tenga un entierro digno. Y no dijo más. Continuó con la ceremonia como si nada hubiera pasado, como si aquello no le afectara. Cinco años después, la víspera de que Diego ascendiera al trono, recibí la noticia: no podía tener hijos. Me envió a un convento, donde pasaría el resto de mis días, con la condición de no volver a pisar el palacio. Esa misma noche, me mostró una fotografía de María y, sin inmutarse, me dijo: —Cuando ella murió, llevaba mi hijo. Si no fuera por la influencia de tu familia en la corte, dime, ¿cómo habríamos terminado casándonos? ¿Y qué habría sido de María? —Carmen Pimentel, no sirves ni para ser madre. Quédate aquí, reza y paga por tus pecados. Ora por el alma de María y de nuestro hijo. En menos de un año, mi familia Pimentel fue acusada de traición y todos fueron ejecutados. Yo, por mi parte, morí de un infarto, desangrándome por la boca. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, me encontré de vuelta en el día de mi boda, justo antes de entrar al palacio.
