Jade Necklace Pendant

I returned home after studying abroad for three years, only to find that my brother’s girlfriend had brought her entire family to live in my mansion. The moment they saw me, they pinned me against the floor. "How dare you! Call him your sweetheart, spend his money, and now you're here to take my mansion? " When I saw the girlfriend’s crazed antics, I was shocked. “Who did you say owns the mansion?” “It’s my boyfriend’s, but it’ll be mine sooner or later. It has nothing to do with you.” With her parents, she yanked off the ancient pendant on my neck and crushed my heirloom bracelet. They even tied up my limbs, put me on the table, and positioned me in a humiliating pose to post online. Her brother pinned my legs down and reached under my shirt…

Before I realized it, I’d become the invisible wife standing beside my mafia Don husband, Adrian Kane. A stay-at-home mom buried in chores while my husband paraded around with his secretary, Viola, ten years younger than me. “She’s smart,” Adrian said once. “She knows how to help me.” Tonight marked our tenth anniversary. I saw an elegant designer dress and a necklace presenting in the living room. For a second, I was happy. Looks like Adrian finally decided to take me to this year’s annual mafia gathering and introduce me as his Donna. Turns out the dress and the jewelry was for Viola. Later that night, I caught Adrian sneaking in with Viola—both drunk, hands all over each other like I didn’t exist. I just made one phone call. “I will join the Doctors Without Borders program. Send me away.” Before I married Adrian, I had a future in medicine. But I gave it all up for him. Now? It was time to choose myself and leave behind everything that was never really mine.

À la veille de mon mariage avec Gwenaël Castex, j'ai remplacé la mariée par son premier amour, Myriam Sadoul. Tout simplement parce que j'avais découvert qu'il ne m'épousait que sur la dernière volonté de mon père. Et si, pendant nos cinq ans de relation, il ne m'avait jamais touchée d'un geste intime, c'était pas par égard pour ma maladie cardiaque, mais pour rester fidèle à sa Myriam. Alors, quand j'ai appris que Gwenaël avait une autre vie avec elle derrière mon dos, j'ai liquidé mes parts et suis partie à l'étranger pour me soigner, loin de ce mensonge.

Ever since I was a child, I can see the strings. Strings that connect us to other people. Strings that reveal what we feel towards others. Strings that can change it's color. From Red to Black. Just like love, that can turn into hatred. From White to Black. Just like friendships, that can turn into betrayal. Alice Jade Martinez is an 18-year-old girl possessing the ability to see the fated strings. Working as a matchmaker, she bonds people to their fated partner. But as nice as it sounds, her gift comes with a curse. She's forbidden to fall in love. If she does, the string's curse will activate and instantly kill that person... She fell in love once. And he died. That's why she swears she'll never fall in love again. A novel with overbearing characters. A series of love stories bonded by the fated string. This is a story about a girl who can't fall in love. And a boy who can't feel anything.

Le premier amour de mon compagnon, Sarah Blackwood, et moi avions chacune un fils de huit ans. Le fils de Sarah a tué un loup innocent. Au lieu de le livrer à la justice de la meute, mon compagnon m'a demandé que notre propre enfant prenne la responsabilité du crime. « Marcus ne passera que cinq ans dans la Prison d'Argent », m'a-t-il grogné. « Sarah et Jamie n'ont aucune protection — l'exil les tuerait tous les deux ! Notre fils est assez fort pour survivre à ça ! » Pendant qu'il les a envoyés à l'étranger pour fuir la justice, les gardes de ses parents ont traîné notre petit innocent en prison. Quand Ryan est revenu… j'avais déjà disparu.

Le PDG milliardaire Killian Blackwood recherchait les gènes parfaits. Il offrait une récompense colossale pour une mère porteuse. Dix milliards d'euros pour un bébé. Mais les soixante-dix-sept femmes avant moi avaient toutes disparu. Noyée sous les dettes, je n'avais pas le choix. J'ai serré les dents et suis devenue la soixante-dix-huitième. J'ai porté son enfant pendant des mois. J'ai accouché. Et je n'ai pas disparu. Mais au moment où je tendais les bras vers mon bébé, prête à recevoir mes dix milliards, j'ai éclaté en sanglots de terreur. Mon bébé n'était pas humain. C'état une portée de trois louveteaux.

Il m'a exécuté pour trahison. La déesse de la Lune m'a donné 100 jours pour prouver mon innocence, dans le corps de quelqu'un d'autre. L'alpha Kieran Drake a tué sa compagne il y a deux ans. Il a cru les preuves. Il a cru les mensonges. Il m'a transpercé le cœur d'argent sans hésiter. Maintenant, je suis de retour, piégée dans le visage d'une étrangère, et son loup reconnaît ce que son esprit refuse d'accepter : **je suis toujours sa compagne.** Mais je ne suis pas ici pour me réconcilier. Je suis ici pour découvrir la vérité. Quelqu'un m'a piégée. Quelqu'un d'assez proche pour falsifier des lettres, manipuler des témoins et s'en tirer à bon compte pendant que je mourais. Et cette personne est toujours là, empoisonnant mon compagnon, détruisant ma meute de l'intérieur. Il me reste 100 jours avant que ce corps emprunté ne me lâche. 100 jours pendant lesquels mes souvenirs disparaîtront un à un, notre premier baiser, le visage de ma sœur, et même mon propre nom. 100 jours pour dévoiler un complot, sauver l'Alpha qui m'a assassinée et décider si le lien qui nous unit mérite une seconde chance. **Le problème ?** La culpabilité de Kieran est aussi dangereuse que son amour. Et le monstre qui a orchestré ma mort ne me laissera pas survivre une seconde fois. On dit que l'amour vaut la peine de mourir, mais le mien exige que je vive.
