Isaac Foster

Na minha vida passada, coloquei em segredo uma Poção do Amor no copo do meu companheiro destinado e Alfa, Jason Green. Como o esperado, ele se apaixonou por mim. Nós realizamos a mais grandiosa cerimônia de vínculo de companheiros da história da nossa alcateia e viramos o casal que todo mundo invejava. O efeito da Poção do Amor durava sete anos. Ingênua, eu acreditei que isso bastaria para conquistar o coração verdadeiro dele. Mas a amiga de infância do Jason, Lilian Foster, trocou a própria língua com uma bruxa do mercado negro pelo antídoto. No instante em que a verdade veio à tona, o amor nos olhos de Jason se transformou num ódio que parecia atravessar os ossos. Ele me vendeu no mercado negro como cobaia viva para experimentos e me forçou a beber um Frasco de Feitiço Corrosivo. Por dentro, eu apodreci, e morri de pura dor. Mas eu regressei no tempo, segurando de novo aquele mesmo frasco da Poção do Amor. Dessa vez, eu não hesitei. Eu bebi tudo de uma vez só. "Dessa vez, não vou implorar por seu amor de novo, Jason," murmurei em pensamentos. "Eu pretendo me amar," eu disse baixinho para mim. Então… por que foi ele quem acabou se arrependendo?

My fiance, Victor Blackwood, is a mafia boss who rules the country's underworld with an iron fist. To the rest of the world, he is the epitome of power. Yet to me, he is the embodiment of love. But I do not realize the cost of loving a man like him. On Valentine's Day, I cook his favorite dishes and wait for him to come home. However, time passes, and his chair stays empty. Uneasy, I go to Queenie Stone's social media page. She is Victor's foster sister. She posts, "All I said was that I felt lonely, and he came right away. "Even when I accidentally spilled wine on him, he didn't mind. Victor is still someone who puts family first, even if it means neglecting his lover. "He never lets me down. I hope things stay that way." In the photo, Victor's shirt is soaked at the waist. Queenie's handkerchief lingers near his most private parts, but he doesn't pull away. He merely looks at her affectionately. I do not make a fuss and give Queenie's post a like. Then, I send Victor a message that reads, "Let's break up." Victor ignores it as always. Later, I discover that when my breakup message popped up, he had said offhandedly, "Vivienne can't live without me. She's just acting out. "If I ignore her for a few days, she'll come crawling back by herself. She's easy to please." What he doesn't know is that I was easy to handle only because I once loved him. But now that I have decided to leave, he cannot make me turn back, no matter how he tries to win me over.

When I received the news that my fiancé, Ellison Perez, had postponed our wedding for the 18th time, I happened to be walking out of the hospital, clutching my medical report. Once again, he had delayed our wedding for an entire month, all because of my adopted foster sister, Becky. I thought about what the doctor had told me. After hesitating for a long time, I finally dialed Ellison's number. "I can't wait until next month. If we can't get married tomorrow, there won't be another chance." However, Ellison only took my words as another fit of childish willfulness. "Don't be unreasonable, Lily. Have you forgotten how Becky took your place as the hostage? She was tortured for a whole month before being rescued." "It's because of you that she developed severe trauma. Now you can't even wait one more month for her to recover?" I could hear my parents' voices chiming in over the line. "Becky still suffers from extreme fear of men. Ellison is the only one who can calm her down. Isn't it your fault she ended up like this?" "You're being selfish, Lily. A wedding can wait, but Becky's condition can't!" I had known for a long time that ever since that incident, my entire family had chosen Becky's side. Even so, tears streamed down my face. "Fine," I said softly. "Postpone it." I clenched the medical report tightly in my hand. They did not know that just moments ago, the doctor had told me the truth— I was in the final stage of liver cancer. I only had one month to live.

Ernesta, the daughter of a wealthy family, had lived like an orphan for over a decade after being separated from her parents as a young child. At sixteen, she was finally found and brought home. Ernesta believed her life was starting anew, that she would finally be surrounded by her family's love. But she had no idea what awaited her: her brother's judgmental gaze, her father's disdain, and her mother's feigned affection. This was because someone had completely usurped her place in the family. Her foster sister, Kiera, though unrelated by blood to the Merediths, had been raised in luxury and had become a true lady. Ernesta, the real daughter raised in a less fortunate environment, wasn't considered noble enough, elegant enough, and was treated like an outsider. On the night of Ernesta's 20th birthday, also the night her engagement to Ryder was announced, he coldly stated, “The only one I've ever loved is Kiera.” Why hadn't he said it sooner? Why did he have to say it today, in front of so many guests, making her look like a fool? To make matters worse, her father, mother, and brother all turned their backs on her to protect the deceitful Kiera. Ernesta turned and walked away. This time, she was determined to let go of the family love she had always craved. She wanted to prove to the Merediths and Ryder that her life would be even better without them. But a serious car accident nearly claimed Ernesta's life. When she awoke, a mechanical voice echoed in her ears, “Ding! Congratulations, master, on successfully installing the Life-Altering System. Your brain is severely damaged, and your body is in a vegetative state. If you want a chance to wake up, you need to complete the mission assigned by the Life-Altering System.”

"Love doesn't protect the border," he said, rejecting her while she carried his secret heir. Five years later, she is the fake fiancée of his deadliest enemy... and she’s hiding a child with the Golden Eyes of a King. "I reject you, Elara Vance." Five years ago, Alpha Kael of Camelot chose power over love. Believing the lies of his corrupt Oracle and Elara’s own foster sister, he publicly banished his fated mate on his ascension day, leaving her with nothing but a broken heart—and a secret growing inside her. Now, Elara is a rogue herbalist living in the shadows, her life revolving around her five-year-old son, Leo. But Leo carries a deadly curse. To save him, Elara must venture into uncharted territory to steal a legendary Orchid from the most dangerous man on the continent: King Darius of the Lycans. She infiltrates the Palace, but the Ruthless King catches her red-handed. "Give me one reason why I shouldn't snap your neck right now," Darius growls. "Because," Elara gasps, "I'm the only one who can wake your guards up." Intrigued by her skills and cornered by the Council into a forced marriage, Darius offers Elara a devil’s bargain: The Orchid for her life. "Marry me for one year. Convince the world you are mine, and I will save your son." Elara accepts, dyeing her son’s hair black to hide his identity. But deception is fragile. When a Peace Summit brings her vengeful Ex to the palace, Elara’s secrets are one washed-out hair dye away from being revealed. With a Lycan King stealing her heart and an Alpha hunting her son, Elara must decide: Keep running, or unleash the wolf within.

So... Lagi siyang nandito sa lugar na to? Since when... Kailan pa nila ako niloloko? As they turned to leave, I struggled, screamed, but they didn't look back. "Tulong!" "Jackson, Pakiusap lumingon ka. Nandito ako!" My eyes cried out for help, even in my helplessness, but no one turned around. Betrayed and abandoned, I'm paralyzed by the impossible choice of what to prioritize. "I'm so helpless." Therra Mina Miller thought she had finally found the love she always wanted. But her seemingly perfect life with Jackson Park, the heir to Astine Corporation, was nothing more than a cruel illusion created by her greedy family. Their dream wedding was just a way to further their own selfish desires. Ang pagtataksil ng kanyang stepsister na si Nicole Smith kay Jackson, at ang lihim na relasyon nito sa kanyang fiancé, ay nagdulot kay Mina ng matinding sakit at pagkadismaya. Sa gitna ng kanyang paghihirap, isang lihim na relasyon ang umusbong sa pagitan nina Mina at Matthias Park, ang foster father ni Jackson. Their relationship became her strength, driving her to stand on her own and break free from her family’s control. She swore to succeed on her own terms, refusing to let her family’s power shape her future. Her success became the ultimate sweet revenge, exposing Nicole’s lies and taking back her life. Pero paano kung ang inaakala niyang katapusan ng kanyang paghihirap mula sa pang-aabuso ng mga nasa paligid niya ay simula pa lang—the beginning of a truth about herself she never knew? Mananatili ba siyang kalmado, o maghihiganti sa mga taong dapat managot?

"No offense but you are always so grumpy, it's actually kind of cute." I bluntly say to him and watch him throw me a nasty glare, I just giggle at that. "I'm not." he defends himself in a calm yet stern voice keeping his face emotionless. "sure." I find myself saying sarcastically. I think I'm too drunk  because there is no way a sober River will have the courage to hold a conversation with a very grumpy Killian. I expect another scary glare to come towards me but instead I meet with a soft gaze that stares at me with an unreadable expression. "I'm not." This time he says softly, I see him biting back a small smile and , he smiles. I've never seen him smiling before, not this way. Standing on the edge of life, River breathes in and lets himself adjust into a new life, into a new family. After a horrifying past he finds his life wrapped around a shaggy orphanage and several foster homes which makes it hard to believe that he is actually being adopted. Having a family was always a desire of him but to his burnt luck, he doesn't feel like he belongs in his adoptive family. Everyone and everything around him make it clear that he wasn't born to be happy. River is waiting for another push, one last push to end it all and fall from the edge and that's when a grumpy looking Killian Price steps into his life. River can't decide if Killian is the saviour or the devil himself. River's life meets with unexpected secrets mixed with burning desire, adorning the melancholic attire. Soon, he finds out he isn't the only one standing on the edge of the cliff, or he realises he is far from the edge.

Dans ma vie précédente, j'ai secrètement glissé une Potion d'Amour dans la tasse de mon compagnon destiné, l'Alpha de ma meute, Jason Green. Comme prévu, il est tombé amoureux de moi. Nous avons organisé la plus grande cérémonie de mariage de l'histoire de notre meute et sommes devenus le couple que tout le monde enviait. Les effets de la Potion d'Amour duraient sept ans. Je croyais naïvement que cela suffirait à conquérir son cœur. Mais l'amie d'enfance de Jason, Lilian Foster, a troqué sa propre langue à une sorcière du marché noir contre l'antidote. Au moment où la vérité était révélée, l'amour dans les yeux de Jason s'est transformé en une haine qui a transpercé les os. Il m'a vendue au marché noir comme sujet d'essai vivant pour des expérimentations et m'a forcée à boire une Potion Corrosive. Mes entrailles ont pourri, et je suis morte de douleur pure. Maintenant, j'ai régressé dans le temps, tenant à nouveau cette même bouteille de Potion d'Amour. Cette fois, je n'ai pas hésité. Je l'ai tout bue d'un seul coup. Jason, je ne supplierais plus jamais pour ton amour. J'allais m'aimer. Alors... Pourquoi c'est toi qui as fini par le regretter ?

The classified project I was working on wrapped up ahead of schedule, so I made sure to get back on my daughter's birthday. When I walked in, a girl I had never seen before was wearing my daughter's princess dress, a crown perched on her head. She sat in front of a cake as tall as she was, eyes closed, making a wish. I frowned and stepped closer. "Who are you? Why are you wearing my daughter's dress? Where's Heidi?" Before she could answer, two housemaids rushed out and started yelling at me. "Where the hell did you come from? How dare you talk to our boss's daughter like that? If you know what's good for you, get out! When the boss gets back, you won't like what happens." I stood there, confused. Boss? The boss's daughter? In this house, wasn't it just me and my daughter, Heidi Foster? I barely had time to speak before they shoved me toward the front door. In the middle of the pushing, something caught my eye. Off to the side, chained to a pillar, was Heidi. The girl I used to hold like she was the most precious thing in the world was now sprawled on the ground, digging through a dog bowl for food. A thick iron chain was locked around her neck, and her body was covered in bruises. My vision tightened. "Heidi, what happened to you?" The moment our eyes met, her hollow gaze filled with tears. She shrank back, then let out a soft bark at me, like a frightened dog. The maids looked at her with open disgust. One of them sneered, "Our boss said that that little thing was born to live like a dog. You have to keep her chained up if you want her to behave."
