How Not To Die

My husband, Jacob Morris, wrongly believed that I had pushed the woman he loved down the stairs. So, he locked me in the basement to make me reflect on my actions. He hired people to punish me, trying to break my spirit. I suffered inhumane torture. My tendons were cut, and my face was disfigured. Four years later, he finally remembered me and let me out. But by then, I was too broken to love him anymore.

Ava: Vor neun Jahren habe ich etwas Schreckliches getan. Es war nicht meine beste Stunde, aber ich sah eine Gelegenheit, den Mann zu bekommen, den ich seit meiner Kindheit geliebt habe, und ich habe sie ergriffen. Jetzt, Jahre später, bin ich es leid, in einer lieblosen Ehe zu leben. Ich möchte uns beide aus einer Ehe befreien, die niemals hätte geschlossen werden dürfen. Man sagt, wenn man etwas liebt, soll man es loslassen... Es war an der Zeit, ihn gehen zu lassen. Ich weiß, dass er mich niemals lieben wird und dass ich nie seine Wahl sein werde. Sein Herz wird immer ihr gehören. Und trotz meiner Sünden verdiene ich es, geliebt zu werden. Rowan: Vor neun Jahren war ich so verliebt, dass ich kaum noch klar sehen konnte. Ich habe alles zerstört, als ich den größten Fehler meines Lebens gemacht habe, und dabei die Liebe meines Lebens verloren. Ich wusste, dass ich meiner Verantwortung nachkommen musste, und das tat ich – mit einer ungewollten Ehefrau. Mit der falschen Frau. Jetzt hat sie mein Leben erneut auf den Kopf gestellt, indem sie sich von mir scheiden ließ. Um die Sache noch komplizierter zu machen: Die Liebe meines Lebens ist wieder in der Stadt. Die einzige Frage ist jetzt: Wer ist die Richtige? Ist es das Mädchen, in das ich mich vor Jahren Hals über Kopf verliebt habe? Oder ist es meine Ex-Frau, die Frau, die ich nie wollte, aber heiraten musste?

For three agonizing years, my mother struggled with kidney failure. Finally, after all the waiting and the constant dialysis, she was next in line for a transplant. Hope seemed so close. But then, my husband, Zachary Levi, an esteemed nephrology professor, did the unforgivable. He surreptitiously gave his lover's mother the kidney that was intended for my mother. He said almost dismissively, "Ella's mother couldn't wait any longer. Your mother's been on dialysis for so long, she's not going to die anytime soon." Later, my mother passed away. I called Zachary one final time. Yet, it was a woman who answered. "Margaret, right? Zachary's in the shower. Is there something you need?" I stared at my mother's smile on the gravestone, and an overwhelming emptiness spread through me. "It's nothing. Just wanted to talk about the divorce."

In the split second when the research lab explodes, my boyfriend, Thomas Bastion, dashes to Melody Harper, who is standing furthest from the blast zone. He shields her from the impact with his own body. When the sounds of the explosion stop, the first thing he does is carry Melody to the hospital. I'm lying on the floor. My body is covered in fresh blood, but he doesn't spare a single glance at me. Thomas has taken care of Melody for the past 18 years. His heart is filled with nothing but her. There's no space for anyone else. I only survived because my colleagues rushed me to the hospital. When I am discharged from the ICU, I call my teacher, Louis Carpenter. Both my eyes are swollen from how much I've been crying. "Mr. Carpenter, I've made up my mind. I'm willing to join you for the confidential research. It's fine if we have to leave in one month. I don't care that I'll be unable to contact anyone for the next five years." The wedding ceremony that I have been dreaming of is supposed to take place in a month's time. However, I no longer want to get married.

Ich war mit dem Wolfsgift Silbermondkraut infiziert, das sich langsam im Körper ausbreitete, und stand kurz vor dem Tod. Aber das einzige Allheilmittel, das mich retten konnte, wurde von meinem Gefährten Leo gekauft und meiner Stiefschwester Jane geschenkt. Weil er dachte, ich würde meine Krankheit nur vortäuschen. Ich gab die konservative Behandlung auf und nahm starke Schmerzmittel. Der Preis dafür war, dass meine Organe nach drei Tagen versagten und ich letztendlich starb. In jenen drei Tagen vor meinem Tod gab ich alles auf. Als ich Jane die von mir eigenhändig gegründete Pelzfabrik schenkte, lobten mich meine Eltern dafür, wie sehr ich doch meine Schwester liebte. Als ich vorschlug, die Gefährtenbindung aufzulösen, lobte mich Leo dafür, dass ich endlich vernünftig geworden war. Als ich meine Tochter bat, Jane von nun an „Mama“ zu nennen, sagte sie glücklich, dass ihre Mama Jane sie sowieso immer am besten behandelt hatte. Als ich Jane meine gesamten Ersparnisse übertrug, bemerkte meine Familie nichts Ungewöhnliches, sondern war nur zufrieden mit meinem Verhalten: „Endlich ist Anna nicht mehr so bösartig.“ Ich wusste nicht, ob sie es nach meinem Tod bereuen würden.
