“Congratulations, Miss Santillan. You are six weeks pregnant.” Nanigas si Marga sa kinatatayuan niya habang nakatitig lang sa doktor. Bumaba ang paningin niya sa prenatal examination report. Napapikit siya at napahawak sa kaniyang tiyan. “B-Buntis ako…” mahinang sabi niya. Hindi niya maintindihan ang kaniyang nararamdaman. Mas nangibabaw pa rin ang takot sa kaniya na baka malaman ni Brandon ang tungkol sa kaniyang pagbubuntis. *** “Kinakabahan ka ba?” Binuhay ni Brandon ang makina ng sasakyan. “Kung palagi kang ganito sa tuwing kausap mo ako, iisipin ko talaga na buntis ka, Marga.” Napalunok ng maraming beses si Marga. Mas lalo lang siyang kinakabahan. Pinagpapawisan na rin siya kahit na malakas naman ang aircon. “Kung totoong buntis ako, ano ang gagawin mo?” Napakagat-labi siya pagkatapos niyang bitawan ang mga katagang ‘yon. “You will raise the child alone, Marga. Kahit isang piso ay wala kang makukuha sa akin.”

Sepharine cared for Draven, the crippled son of an Alpha, for three long years. After painstakingly helping him regain his strength, he scorned her—for she was merely a lowly maid, unworthy of an Alpha's heir. Heartbroken, Sepharine left the pack. Only after losing her did Draven realize the depth of his feelings for her.

Seven years ago, I signed a mate contract as Luna. For my mother’s dying wish and for the Pack’s stability, I personally pushed a man with nothing to his name onto the Alpha throne. I held the Pack together for him, expanded our businesses, and handled the filthy negotiations and the deals no one wanted to see in the light. Everyone said— I was calm, I was formidable, I was qualified. Just… not much like a “gentle mate.” Until that day. I stood in the bedroom and watched my Alpha husband lay his hand over my paralyzed stepsister’s slightly rounded belly. They told me it was for the greater good of the Pack. That child would be registered under my name. He would call me Mother. I didn’t cry. I didn’t scream. I just waited for the seven-year term to hit its end and activated the trust clause my mother left behind. Accounts frozen. Capital withdrawn. The wolf empire I built with my own hands collapsed overnight. By the time he knelt in the ruins and finally understood what he’d lost— I had already taken back my mother’s last name, dissolved the mate bond, and stepped onto a new territory.

On our wedding night, Zach received a phone call and left my side. From then on, I knew that all of my efforts over the years had gone to waste. After all, the person he loved had returned. “Cassia, let’s get a divorce.” “But we just got married two days ago.” “You know that I don’t love you, and I never will.”

I didn't think much of her during the interview but my boyfriend decided to hire her. Not only was her work substandard, but her attitude toward me was hostile. I found out later that she was his ex.

She was the daughter of his first love’s maid. When he offered her marriage, she accepted it, believing love could grow after the vows. But the marriage turned cold when a manipulated photo convinced him she had betrayed him. Accused of an affair she never committed, heartbroken and emotionally drained, she chose divorce while carrying a child he refused to believe was his. What happens when the truth finally comes out? When he realizes she was loyal all along? And when he discovers the child he rejected is his own?

Love wasn't what brought us together, but making this marriage work was what I've held on tightly to for five years. Enduring every pain he caused me, and when I lost our baby, he didn't care. And after five years of torture... when I had nothing to offer him now, he threw a divorce paper in my face and said icily. "Sign the paper, Eloise. Rose is pregnant with my child, and I don't want her to feel uncomfortable with you around here." "You can't do this to me, Lucas. I'm pregnant with your child." I tried to save our marriage... I still held on until the end, but as I drowned in fire and called him to save me, he went for his mistress instead, and left me to die. And as I breathed my last, I only had one wish... To be reborn. So I could make them pay for everything. And just when I thought it was all over, I woke up... This time, I was reunited with the important person that I once lost... My ex-boyfriend. This time, they will regret everything...
