Kurapika Is Now Drowning

The casino my husband and I ran was about to go through a chaotic police raid. Anyone who got caught would likely end up arrested. We had the time to leave. But we couldn’t all leave. One of us had to stay behind, or the cops would keep chasing us. Elias, my charming husband, didn’t even hesitate. He grabbed Mireille and left me to handle the cops, tossing over his shoulder, “I’ll send a lawyer to you.” Lucky for me, I managed to walk away without any consequences. And then, I saw, Elias, the man who was supposed to have my back, not only did escape without me, he also whisked Mireille away to some fancy resort, like they were on vacation. He looked so carefree, so unbothered. Not a hint of concern for the wife he’d just abandoned. “Think Seraphina’s gonna be mad that we left without her?” Mireille asked, all innocence. Elias laughed, that cold, detached laugh that sent a shiver down my spine. “Please. As if she’d ever get mad at me. She can handle herself.” He didn’t care. But you know what? Neither do I. Not anymore.

She gave him eight years. He gave her a divorce mid-sex, all for the dying wish of his sister, Naomi. Liv signed the papers, burying her marriage and the truth about her secret baby.

“Kahit minsan ba nagawa mo akong mahalin sa tatlong taon nating pagsasama?” Pinahid ni Felicia ang mga luhang walang tigil sa pagpatak mula sa kanyang mga mata at nagpatuloy. “Kahit katiting lang?” Batid ni Felicia na sa pagbigkas niya ng mga salitang iyon ay itinapon na niya ang lahat ng kanyang natitirang dignidad. Gusto niyang sabunutan ang sarili dahil sa ginagawa niyang kamartiran. Hindi ito deserve ni Xander dahil sa mga pinaggagawa nito sa kanya. Subalit tila ba may sariling buhay ang kanyang puso sapagkat kahit na anong gawin ng lalaki sa kanya ay nangingibabaw pa rin ang kanyang pagmamahal para rito. Marahas na binawi ni Xander ang kanyang braso. “What do you think, woman? What do you think is my answer?” Napalunok si Felicia. “N-Nainitidihan ko,” she answered softly. “Xander… I am sorry if my love made you this miserable.” ************* Sa loob ng tatlong taon, umasa si Felicia na matututunan din siyang mahalin ni Alexander Buenaventura. Subalit ni katiting na pagmamahal ay hindi siya tinapunan ng lalaki. Sa halip, matinding galit at pagkapoot ang namayani sa puso ng binata dahil sa paniniwala nitong minanipula ni Felicia ang kanyang lola upang sila'y maikasal. Finally, Felicia had enough. She left Xander and moved on with her life. Ipinagpatuloy ni Felicia ang naudlot niyang pangarap, ang pagdo-doktor. Pinilit niyang kalimutan ang lalaking dumurog sa kanyang puso, kasama ang naging bunga ng kanilang una’t huli pagniniig, si Caleb. Sa loob ng anim na taon, naging mapayapa ang buhay ni Felicia. Subalit isang araw, muling nag-krus ang mga landas nila ni Xander. At sa pagkakataong ito, gagawin ni Xander ang lahat upang bumalik siya sa kanya.

My world fell apart on the day of my Luna ceremony. My mother and older brother approached me with bad news. My younger sister, Lilith, was cursed and did not have long to live. They wanted me to fulfill her only wish before death. She wanted to replace me as my Alpha, Fenris', mate. That included giving her my Luna ceremony. I was shocked and angry. I looked at Fenris as I expected him to reject this ridiculous suggestion as well. However, he nodded. "Don't worry, Selene," he said to me. He sounded so sincere. "This is only temporary. Once we've fulfilled Lilith's last wish, you'll be my mate forever." I was adamant about rejecting that suggestion. It was too crazy! However, my 'beloved' brother, Damian, forcefully dragged me off into the Dark Forest, where it was rampant with wild beasts. That was also when I realized I was pregnant with Fenris' child. My pregnancy weakened my strength tremendously, and I was mauled by the wild beasts while still alive. By the time everyone remembered me, all that was left of me was a rotting corpse lying in the forest.

For eight years, Cecilia Moore was the perfect Luna, loyal, and unmarked. Until the day she found her Alpha mate with a younger, purebred she-wolf in his bed. In a world ruled by bloodlines and mating bonds, Cecilia was always the outsider. But now, she's done playing by wolf rules. She smiles as she hands Xavier the quarterly financials-divorce papers clipped neatly beneath the final page. “You're angry?” he growls. “Angry enough to commit murder,” she replies, voice cold as frost. A silent war brews under the roof they once called home. Xavier thinks he still holds the power-but Cecilia has already begun her quiet rebellion. With every cold glance and calculated step, she's preparing to disappear from his world-as the mate he never deserved. And when he finally understands the strength of the heart he broke... It may be far too late to win it back.

Outside the private room, Charlotte Riley overheard Zac Gibson say, “Charlotte is gorgeous, no doubt. But the reason I pursued her? She reminded me of Wendy Cooper. For years, I was just searching for traces of Wendy in her.” That night, she finally made the call she had been avoiding for years. “Dad, I’m ready. I’ll come home and go through with the engagement.” Later, when Zac saw Charlotte at a high-society gala—elegant, untouchable, and more dazzling than ever—only then did he realize the truth. And he completely lost it. * The night Charlotte walked away from her family’s arranged marriage, Sean stood by the window, swirling his wine, his expression unreadable. “Lottie, one day, you’ll come back to me willingly.” Rumor had it that Jersey City's most powerful heir, Sean Jasper, was cold, reserved, and indifferent to women. Charlotte believed it. Until she realized just how intense and unwavering his devotion truly was beneath that composed, self-restrained facade.
