Im Finally Free

„Ich kann deine Erregung riechen, Omega. Hör jetzt auf, stur zu sein, spreize deine Beine weit und empfange mich mit Dankbarkeit.“ Ich starrte ihn schweigend an. Ich war triefend nass, doch ich würde mich von keinem anderen Alpha auf diese Weise benutzen lassen. „Es tut mir leid, Alpha, aber ich muss dein Angebot ablehnen.“ Er erstarrte und starrte mich eine Weile ausdruckslos an. Er wirkte noch fassungsloser darüber, dass überhaupt jemand es wagen konnte, ihn abzulehnen. Zukünftige Alphas und einige ausgewählte Krieger wurden aus dem Titan-Rudel weggebracht, um sich einer harten Ausbildung zu unterziehen, bis der amtierende Alpha starb. Man verwehrte ihnen jedes Vergnügen und verweigerte ihnen Gefährtinnen. Erst wenn sie zurückkehrten, durften sie mit beliebigen Frauen schlafen, um ihre sexuelle Spannung abzubauen – so lange, bis ihnen schließlich doch eine Gefährtin beschert wurde. Ich war eine der Sklavinnen, die nach einem Überfall aus meinem Rudel verschleppt worden waren. Ich war dort, um Böden zu schrubben und Geschirr zu spülen, und versuchte, unsichtbar zu bleiben. Bis ich dann auf den Alpha stieß, der als skrupellos galt, und er verlangte, mich zu reiten. Ich lehnte höflich ab. Das verblüffte ihn zutiefst. Jede Frau hätte getötet dafür, von ihm geritten zu werden, aber ich, eine Sklavin aus dem niedrigsten Rang der Omegas, hatte das Rückgrat, ihn abzulehnen.

My husband falls for my cousin at first sight while still married to me. They conspire to make me fall from grace. I end up with a ruined reputation and family. I can't handle the devastation, so I decide to drag them to hell with me as we're on the way to get the divorce finalized. Unexpectedly, all three of us are reborn. As soon as we open our eyes, my husband asks me for a divorce so he can be with my cousin. They immediately get together and leave the country. Meanwhile, I remain and further my medical studies. I work diligently. Six years later, my ex-husband has turned into an internationally renowned artist, thanks to my cousin's help. Each of his paintings sells for astronomical prices, and he's lauded by many. On the other hand, I'm still working at the hospital and saving lives. A family gathering brings us three back together. It looks like life has treated him well as he holds my cousin close and mocks me contemptuously. However, he flies off the handle when he learns I'm about to marry someone else. "How can you get together with someone else when all I did was make a dumb mistake?"

At my mother's funeral, I caught my husband passionately kissing a sales associate at the local department store. When I confronted him about it, he turned the tables and accused me of being paranoid and delusional. Later, I discovered she had been calling my husband "daddy" in their text messages. The betrayal left me emotionally numb, and I decided to step aside, giving them my blessing. What I did not expect was discovering that she was not just involved with my husband—she had been sleeping around with multiple men. When my husband finally learned the truth, he came crawling back to me with tears streaming down his face, begging for forgiveness. By then, I had already moved on with my life and wanted nothing to do with him.

I fell for Don Lorenzo Moretti the second I saw him. Hard. As a mafia princess, I wasn't supposed to chase anyone. But for him, I swallowed my pride and made him my mission. A year later, he finally had me, pinning me to the bed as he moved inside me. His eyes were pure fire, and in that mo ment, they saw only me. For ten years, we were electric. We fucked in five-star hotels all over the world. We just fit. I was his lucky charm at the poker table. I took shots for him until I bled from my stomach. I even took a bullet for him. Then came our engagement party. Lorenzo left me standing there alone. Said something "came up." I went back to our apartment, only to find him kissing my stepsister, Juliana. That’s when I knew. He had always loved her. I was just a stand-in. He tried to explain, words tumbling out in a panicked rush, promising a bigger, better party to make up for it. A laugh, cold and hollow, died in my throat. I turned my back on him, pulled out my phone, and called my mother in Sicily. "I'll marry into the Romano family."

Vor fünf Jahren traf Giulia die schwerste Entscheidung ihres Lebens: Sie verließ Lorenzo, den Mann, den sie liebte, um ihn vor einem finanziellen Ruin zu bewahren, von dem er nichts wusste. Sie nahm die Rolle der Ehrgeizigen auf sich und willigte ein, einen reichen Mann zu heiraten, damit Lorenzo freiziehen konnte. Fünf Jahre später ist Lorenzo zurück. Reich, mächtig und voller Hass, demütigt er sie, indem er sie zwingt, unter seinen Befehlen zu arbeiten. Schlimmer noch: Er umwirbt ihre jüngere Schwester Chiara und hält um ihre Hand an. Giulia findet sich in einer doppelten Qual wieder: Sie muss jeden Tag die Verachtung des Mannes ertragen, den sie immer noch liebt, und gleichzeitig mit gebrochenem Herzen das scheinbare Glück ihrer eigenen Schwester mit ihm miterleben. Giulia schweigt und nimmt lieber die Rache Lorenzos auf sich, als das Glück ihrer Schwester zu zerstören. Sie trägt allein die Last ihres Opfers und ihrer ungebrochenen Liebe , bis zu dem Tag, an dem eine öffentliche Demütigung, die zu weit geht, die Wahrheit dennoch ans Licht bringt. Als ihre Schwester den Brief entdeckt, den sie nie abgeschickt hat , jenen Brief, der die ganze Wahrheit erzählt , stürzt das fragile Lügengebäude in sich zusammen. Doch für Giulia ist bereits zu viel Leid geschehen, zu viele Stille haben einen Abgrund aufgerissen. Selbst angesichts der Reue Lorenzos fragt sie sich, ob die Liebe, die noch unter der Asche ihrer Geschichte glimmt, jemals wieder neu entfacht werden kann … oder ob manche Wunden verdammen, für immer im Schatten zu lieben.

Mom dies of rage when she discovers that the bride at my wedding has become Nelly Johnson, Harvey Fisher's business partner. My wedding turns into Mom's funeral the moment she breathes her last breath. Despite that, Harvey insists that the ceremony continue as planned. He even orders me to put the wedding ring on Nelly's finger. "Hurry up and put it on! I'll explain everything to you tonight!" he snarls. I ignore him and leave the hotel with Mom's body in my arms. The wedding ends with a banging success at 8:00 pm. Nelly updated her social media with a post that's liked by tens of thousands of people. "I've finally married the light of my life! I'd like to thank a certain homewrecker for leaving after remembering her place." Harvey updates his social media with a similar post. "Those who are unworthy don't deserve to be loved." I like both their posts in the ice-cold morgue. I comment, "I wish you two a lifetime of happiness." Then, I head home with Mom's ashes. When I enter the house, I see Harvey holding Nelly tightly while making out with her.

In the seventh year of our marriage, I caught Nolan Garrison kissing his secretary at a bar. He called me shortly after I walked away. "It was just a friendly kiss! What’s with the attitude?" he snapped through the phone. I could hear his friends in the background teasing him and saying that I would be madly jealous while pleading for him not to leave me tonight as usual. Before hanging up, Nolan warned me that he wouldn’t come home if I didn’t apologize. However, I wasn’t bothered by his threat. I didn’t care if he decided to come home or get a divorce. Three minutes later, I posted an update on my social media: “Prioritize self-love and grant others the freedom they seek.”
