How Do Double Sided Cards Work Mtg

The dying heir to Silverbay's showbiz empire suddenly announces he'll select a bride at random from the city's prominent families, hoping the marriage can bring some luck and save his life. On the night before my own wedding, his men arrive and inform us that the Simmons family has been chosen. My parents have just three days to deliver a daughter to him. As soon as my sister, Roxanne Simmons, hears the news, she breaks down in tears and rushes to my fiance for help. When he sees her crying, Clinton Whitfield drops to his knees in front of me, under everyone's gaze. "Mr. Sterling enjoys tormenting virgins. If Roxanne marries him, who knows what he'll do to her? "But you're already past the marrying age, so he won't be interested in you. Please, help Roxy this once!" He looks away, his voice heavy with guilt as he continues, "Besides, he doesn't have much time left. When you return, I'll marry you." Tears well up in my eyes. I ask, stunned, "And what if I don't want to?" Clinton's gaze turns cold, his earlier guilt replaced by ruthless intent. "Then I'll make sure you go to him myself." I laugh bitterly as a chill runs through me. "Fine. I'll go instead."

Dans notre vie antérieure, ma sœur Annick Dubost et moi avions recueilli deux œufs magiques. Le sien avait donné naissance à un Serpent de Glace, le mien à un Phénix de Feu. Elle s'était emparée sans vergogne de mon Phénix, mais l'Apocalypse de la Chaleur était survenue. Alors qu'Annick mourait de chaud, elle avait convaincu mon propre mari, ce Serpent de Glace, de m'étrangler. Mais le destin nous avait ramenés pourtant au jour de l'éclosion. Cette fois, Annick a choisi l'œuf du Serpent de Glace, certaine qu'il la protégerait de la fournaise. Mais elle ignorait un détail crucial : pour conserver ses pouvoirs, un Serpent de Glace devait boire du sang frais… chaque jour.

Ma sœur aînée, qui avait toujours détesté les études, a soudain déclaré vouloir passer l'examen d'entrée à l'université. Elle est même allée jusqu'à demander à nos parents de me marier avec le fils d'un haut gradé, afin d'obtenir l'argent pour financer sa scolarité. À ce moment-là, j'ai compris qu'elle aussi s'était réincarnée. Dans ma vie précédente, elle avait toujours pensé que les études ne servaient à rien. À peine diplômée du lycée, elle s'est mariée avec le fils d'un chef militaire venu avec le don généreux. Mais plus tard, lorsque Cédric Blanc a été muté dans une région reculée, elle a trouvé l'environnement trop rude et a refusé de le suivre. De mon côté, je travaillais pour financer mes études, j'ai obtenu mon diplôme et j'ai décroché un emploi stable dans la fonction publique : je suis devenue une véritable citadine au sens plein du terme. Pendant ce temps, ma sœur, installée dans la zone militaire, profitait de l'autorité de son beau-père pour toucher des pots-de-vin. Cette conduite a entraîné une enquête des supérieurs, qui a fait tomber son beau-père de son poste. Elle a finalement été chassée par sa belle-mère. Divorcée, elle a ensuite été dupée et entraînée à Paris pour spéculer en bourse. Quand le marché s'est effondré, elle a perdu non seulement tout, mais aussi les économies de retraite de nos parents. À bout de ressources, elle s'est accrochée à moi. Un jour, armée d'un couteau, elle m'a contrainte à lui remettre toutes mes économies et ma maison pour « relancer sa vie ». Dans la lutte, elle m'a poignardée douze fois. Je suis morte, vidée de mon sang. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, ma sœur exigeait de nos parents qu'ils me marient à Cédric. Cette fois-ci, j'ai accepté avec joie — et j'ai abandonné mes études sur-le-champ.

I spent five years chasing Tyler Watson, only to get kidnapped right in front of him. He just stood there and watched. As a result, I suffered. After I escaped, he acted all high and mighty and proposed to make up for his tiny bit of guilt. The second we got our marriage certificate, the Simp System’s voice rang in my head. “Congrats, host! You’ve completed your mission.” Just like that, my sanity finally returned. While Tyler waited in a hotel for me to bring him contraceptives, I went live to expose his cheating. For good measure, I even called the anti-vice office to report my dear husband for soliciting prostitutes.

In the empty villa, Celia Quinn sat motionless on the sofa. It wasn't until much later that the villa's front door swung open, and Lucas Shaw stepped inside. His gaze paused briefly on her, then his expression turned cold. "Yvonne is running a fever today. Why did you keep calling me?"

“Come with me,“ he ordered.  “I'm not going anywhere!“ Freya stood her ground, looking up at his blank face.   Something flashed past his dark eyes as he heard her. “You really have some guts, don't you?“   “Well, I don't care what this is. I don't care why I'm in a wedding gown and why I'm being treated like I chose this. You could kill me if you want. But I'm not—”   “Is this about the kiss, my Lady?“ he asked, sounding amused.  Freya wanted the ground to open up and swallow her at that moment. Her face went scarlet red and she almost forgot the other reason why she was angry. “Why should I care about the fact that you didn't kiss me? I barely know you and—”   “Right.“ That was all he said before he gently grabbed her waist and crushed his lips on hers...

And then she drops a bombshell: “I’m pregnant, sir.” What starts as an impossible situation spirals into a high-stakes war of secrets, sabotage, and shattered loyalties.

As love ignites, betrayal strikes — and someone wants Bella silenced. Forever. In a world where every choice could cost them everything, Bella must decide if she’s strong enough to fight for her child, her truth… and the man who just might break her heart.

Three years ago, Alpha Kaelen Draven tore the mate bond from Aria’s soul and cast her out of Shadowfang Pack, believing she had betrayed him. He never knew she was carrying his child.

When Kaelen sees the child who looks exactly like him, his world shatters. Rage, betrayal, and desire crash together as the truth unravels. But the boy isn’t just their hidden heir… he’s the key to a prophecy that could unite or destroy the entire werewolf world. Enemies circle. Old wounds bleed fresh. And the Alpha who once rejected Aria must fight not only for her forgiveness, but for the family he never knew he had.

[COMPLETED]They say love can be a beautiful thing. But for me, it's a twisted waking nightmare. Edmondo D'Avi, the ruthless Don of the North, doesn't just love me. He has claimed me. And he owns me. And his words? "...I Saved you, so I own you, Cara..." "I hate it, Cara. I hate it all." ".....when men look at you, I'd gouge their eyes out." "If they get too close, I'll pull out my gun." "If they talk to you as much, I'd ensure they’ll never speak again." "I dare you, Cara, to smile at ONE of them, and watch me shoot ALL of them dead..." He also hated the way they admired my red hair, so he dyed it black. And when that wasn’t enough, he cut it off. I, Cara La Rosa, am bound to a psychopath by a single oath I was forced into and dare not break: to become his Donna. I never had the chance to refuse. Possession. Obsession. Manipulation. Lies. Dark truths. Betrayals. Revenge. And all of it that suffocates every single breath I take is tangled with the one thing that keeps me alive: LOVE. I love Edmondo D'Avi. But love isn’t kind. It doesn’t protect. It consumes. Now, I’m caught in a world of ruthless power, where loyalty is a weapon and betrayal is a breath away. The question is no longer whether I’ll survive. It’s whether I’ll lose myself to his darkness... or become the darkness he moulds me to be. In the end, the choices are: Surrender or SURRENDER!
