Jade Harley Birthday

I secretly ordered a delivery of a thousand roses for my wife's birthday, hoping to surprise her. After the delivery was completed, I got a message from the delivery guy. [By the way, I tossed the trash by your door on my way out. Didn't expect you to be so kinky. Good for you, man!] He even sent me a photo. In the picture was an open trash bag stuffed with shredded pantyhose. My mind went completely blank. I was overseas on a business trip. My wife was the only one at home.

This is a tale of a young hero, born a peasant and an outcast (the lowest bracket of life), in a society where nobles and kings rule the world. Bran lived his life like every normal young boy, unaware of his destiny and happy to be with his family and loved ones. However, all that changed when he came across a powerful jade, wanted by the forces of good and evil. With the re-appearance of another powerful jade into the world, the balance of power tips once again, as an unspoken evil (a calamity) rises to fulfil a thousand year curse owed to her by the kingdom.

As my murderer's claws tear into my abdomen inch by inch, my father and brother are seated in our family's banquet hall. They're celebrating Carly's 18th birthday and coming-of-age. "You'll always be my little girl." "Happy birthday, Carly." They light 18 pink candles for her. On top of the exquisite red velvet cake is a wolf figurine that they carved for her, and there are well wishes and laughter all around. Meanwhile, I'm curled up in a sewer filled with liquid silver as I bleed to death. My phone has been crushed, and I can't get out. I can only cry for help. A few days later, my father and brother show up together at the autopsy room. My brother stands by the operating table with a scalpel. He slices open the body and sews it back up like it's nothing. My father just covers his nose as he shoots a disgusted glance at my body. He urges my brother to hurry up with the autopsy report. "The victim is a young female wolf presumed to be of pure lineage. Before her death, she was subjected to prolonged captivity and torture. Her throat is nearly severed, her cervical spine is dislocated, and her chest cavity has collapsed. She was also injected with liquid silver before death." Hearing the report, my father looks so calm that it's just like a case study of no consequence. Neither of them can recognize that the body belongs to me—their daughter and sister!

On my 16th birthday, I treat myself to the most delicious cake I can find. On that day, before I can even take a bite, my parents, who are always at odds with each other, sign their divorce papers right in front of me. So, on my wedding day, I tell my wife, Keira Jarrett, "If you ever want a divorce, just get me a birthday cake." She hugs me tightly and promises me."Don't worry. 'Birthday' won't even be a word in our home anymore." Seven years later, on Keira's birthday, her assistant, Jackson Price, throws her a surprise party. She slaps him across his handsome, gentle face and kicks him out of Jarrett Group. That day, I am convinced I have chosen the right woman for life. But three months later, on my birthday, I find out the supposedly fired Jackson has been promoted to Keira's personal secretary. He personally delivers a custom-made birthday cake to me. I call Keira to demand an explanation, but her voice on the other end is cold and distant. "Jack meant well. Don't be a spoilsport." I freeze for a moment, then hang up. It turns out my parents are right all along. The only way a birthday cake tastes right is when it's served with divorce papers.

Les Triplés de Fer Je croyais aimer Caleb. Son calme. Sa tendresse. Sa loyauté. Mais je ne savais pas qu’il avait deux frères… identiques. Deux autres visages. Deux autres âmes. Deux autres dangers. Elian, le deuxième triplé impulsif, imprévisible, cruel dans ses désirs s’est fait passer pour Caleb une nuit. Il m’a touchée comme si j’étais sienne. Il m’a fait croire que c’était lui. Et moi… je n’ai rien vu. Ou peut-être que je n’ai pas voulu voir. Le pire ? Ce n’est pas ce qu’il a fait. C’est ce que j’ai ressenti. Depuis, Elian me harcèle. Il me murmure que ce n’est pas fini. Que cette nuit ne faisait que commencer. Que je reviendrai. Que je suis à lui. Et puis , je ne savais pas qu'ils avaient un troisième frère , je suis tout aussi surprise qu'eux ! il y a Naël, le troisième. Le plus dangereux de tous. PDG d’un empire glacial, calculateur et intouchable. Il m’observe sans rien dire. Mais je sens ses yeux me suivre, me déshabiller, me disséquer. Il ne parle pas d’amour. Il parle de possession. Trois frères. Un seul visage. Trois cœurs obscurs. Et moi, perdue entre eux. Ai-je aimé Caleb ? Ou ai-je aimé leur reflet ? Puis-je encore fuir ce jeu sans règles, ou suis-je déjà la proie marquée des triplés de fer ?

La hermana gemela de Serafina Ruiz fue humillada y murió antes de su boda. Serafina, en una situación desesperada, se despide de su uniforme militar para reemplazar a su hermana en su boda, convirtiéndose en la nueva reina. El emperador del reino, un tirano, había perdido a quien más amaba, y todas las concubinas del harén eran sustitutas de ese primer amor, siendo una de ellas la favorita del emperador. Serafina no se parecía en nada a la mujer que el emperador había amado y todos pensaban que él la despreciaría, que tarde o temprano perdería su posición como reina. Y así fue, al segundo año del matrimonio, ambos decidieron separarse, pero la destituida no fue la reina, sino el emperador. En esa noche, el tirano sujetó con fuerza el vestido de la reina y dijo: —Si quieres irte, ¡será caminando sobre mi cadáver! Las concubinas lloraron, desconsoladas, y le suplicaron: —¡Mi señora!, no nos abandone, si tiene que irse, ¡llévenos con usted!

It was the day of my return. The city was talking about the birthday party my husband was throwing for me. He was a lawyer. But the night before the big day, a message popped up on my husband's cell phone. 'It's been five years. I've been waiting for far too long.' My husband pushed me away, though his face was smeared with guilt. "I'm sorry, honey. The GM wants me on a last-minute work trip. I can't make it in time for your birthday." He left without even missing a beat. I opened up the GPS app and watched the red dot move away. That was him. I got an Uber and tailed him right away. His GM was me. I just got the job, and I approved his leave for my birthday. And then he told me, in my face, that I assigned him on a last-minute work trip when I did no such thing. It was midnight. And I was going to find out who this man was meeting at this witching hour.

No había hombres adultos en mi pueblo. Cuando las chicas cumplían 18 años, se celebraba un ritual a la adultez colectiva en el templo. Adolescentes con vestimenta tradicional hacían cola para entrar en el templo y salían con expresiones de sufrimiento y placer. Melinda cumplía 18 años, pero, qué raro, la abuela no la dejaba asistir. Se coló en el templo de noche y salió con aire casada, no podía ni andar firmemente, además de que se veía sangre goteando entre sus piernas.
