Lie

After five miscarriages, I seek out a doctor to ask why I can't carry my babies to term. However, I overhear his conversation with my husband when I'm at the door. "The abortion medication you've prescribed is quite effective—she's already had five miscarriages. When can you do a hysterectomy? I can't let Adrianna have my child. "Oh, and give me something to keep a mother and baby safe. Monica is pregnant with my child; I have to make sure she gives birth to a healthy baby." The doctor says, "Adrianna's health has deteriorated over the years, though. It's highly likely she'll never have children." Reynold Scott scoffs indifferently. "So what? It's precisely because I don't want her to have children that I've been making her miscarry! Look, let's end this here. I need to accompany Monica on a shopping spree for the baby." I feel cold all over when I hear this. It turns out the love I've been defending is nothing but a joke.

Ich starb an dem Tag, an dem ich den „Distinguished Service Award“ des Rudels erhalten sollte. Drei Stunden nach meinem Tod machten meine Eltern, mein Bruder und mein Gefährte gerade den Abschluss der Abschlussfeier, die sie für meine Schwester ausgerichtet hatten. Während meine Schwester Ella ein gemütliches Familienfoto auf Instagram postete, war ich im Keller eingesperrt. Ich versuchte, mit der Zunge über mein Handy zu wischen, um Hilfe zu rufen. Der einzige Person, die antwortete, war mein Gefährte Ryan. Alles, was er sagte, war: „Sophie, hör auf mit dem Drama. Ellas Abschlussfeier ist wichtig. Jetzt reicht's aber mit dem Theater!“ Es war das neunundneunzigste Mal, dass sie mich im Stich ließen. Und das letzte. Ich lag in einer Lache meines eigenen Blutes, und meine Lungen waren reglos. Sie dachten, ich hätte einfach einen Wutanfall und hätte mich irgendwo versteckt, und dass ich schon zu ihnen zurückkriechen würde, wenn sie mich nur genug schmoren ließen. Aber sie wussten es nicht. Ich war die ganze Zeit zu Hause. Ich war bereits tot.

I was five months along, carrying the pup of my fiancé, Ryan Hebert. On our marking day, Ryan rejected me and marked Daisy, also with pup. He claimed my pup wasn’t his, a bastard of unknown origin. Worse, he called my father a traitor in front of everyone. At the banquet entrance, my father collapsed, and I miscarried. I knelt in blood, begging him to save us. “Daisy can’t handle stress. Stay away from her.” Then he walked off, holding her close. Later, my childhood friend Andrew saved me. He brought in the most skilled wolf healers for my father, and stayed by my side, night and day. A week later, my father had another heart attack. Before he passed, his only wish was for me to be protected. Andrew knelt by the bedside, and solemnly swore to my father’s lifeless body that he would marry me,that he would protect me for the rest of my life. And I believed him. After the funeral, I ended things with Ryan and married Andrew instead. But five years later, I overheard a conversation between Ryan and Andrew. “If Eleanor ever finds out that it was you and me who traded her purity for Daisy’s happiness on the day of the ceremony… do you think she’d still love you?” So Andrew’s love was a lie too. But when I left, why did the one who broke me beg to have me back?

Victoria et Kate sont deux sœurs que tout oppose. L'une, un cœur pur, a toujours été attirée par la lumière. L'autre, plus cynique, a toujours marché dans l'ombre. Enfants, elles pensaient que leurs dons de médiums n'étaient que des bizarreries, des murmures d'esprits curieux. Mais une séance de ouija, qui tourne mal, déchire le voile entre les mondes. Une vérité oubliée depuis des millénaires leur est révélée : Victoria et Kate sont les gardiennes d'un lien ancien, sacré, entre deux forces cosmiques autrefois unies, aujourd'hui divisées. Pour l'une, cette connexion est avec l'esprit protecteur de la lumière, un être qui a tant donné qu'il en a oublié sa propre existence. Pour l'autre, c'est l'appel de l'ombre, d'une entité qui a été bannie pour une vérité qu'elle seule détient. Guidées par leurs grimoires, des livres aux pouvoirs immenses, les sœurs vont devoir apprendre à maîtriser leurs dons. Mais leur voyage n'est pas qu'une simple quête mystique. C'est un retour aux sources pour comprendre leurs propres peurs et leurs propres forces. C'est l'histoire d'un destin qui ne peut s'accomplir qu'ensemble, dans un monde où la lumière ne peut briller sans que l'ombre ne lui offre une toile.

Als ich erfuhr, dass Felix Behrens seiner kleinen Assistentin Erkältungsmedizin geben wollte, sich aber nicht um mich kümmerte, die mit Klaustrophobie im Aufzug feststeckte, reichte ich die Scheidung ein. Felix unterschrieb sofort und sagte lächelnd zu seinen Freunden: „Nur ein kleiner Wutanfall. Ihre Eltern sind tot, sie wird sich sicherlich nicht von mir scheiden lassen. Außerdem gibt es doch eine Bedenkzeit von dreißig Tagen bei der Scheidung. Wenn sie es bereut, werde ich großzügig sein und nachsehen, und sie wird zurückkommen.“ Am nächsten Tag postete er ein Paarfoto von sich und seiner Assistentin mit der Bildunterschrift: „Jeden zärtlichen Moment mit dir festhalten.“ Ich zählte die Tage herunter. Still räumte ich meine Sachen zusammen und wählte eine Telefonnummer. „Onkel, kauf mir ein Ticket nach New York.“

Une histoire d'amour détruite par le mensonge, un mensonge qui met en péril la vie des enfants innocents, qui n'ont pas demandé à naitre car cela implique la génétique: l'éléctrophorèse de l'hémoglobine

His hand clamped around my chin, rough and unrelenting, sending a sharp ache through my jaw. His eyes bored into mine, dark and merciless, as if he could strip away my very soul. “You belong to me now,” he snarled, his voice low and venomous. My heart hammered in my chest, each beat a desperate plea to escape. --- Nyx Caprienne was feared by all, known as “The Queen of Death.” A mercenary without equal, she moved like a shadow, silent and lethal, leaving destruction in her wake. Her latest mission was simple. To hunt down a man who seemed untouchable. A man drenched in blood and power, his name whispered with fear. To Nyx, he was just another target. Another job. But this time, fate turned the game against her. This man was more than she’d anticipated. Beneath his wealth and charm was something far darker, a predator who thrived on chaos. He wasn’t just dangerous; he was the devil himself. And now, Nyx was caught in his web, realizing too late that this was a fight she might not survive.

“They are obviously my children” usal ni Juancho kay Orelia. Natigilin ang babae at naibagsak ang inaayos na mga bulaklak. ”Ano ang ibig mong sabihin?Ni hindi nga kita kilala!” iwas tinging depensa ni Orelia sa lalaki at agad niyang itinago ang dalawang bata sa kanyang likuran. “Hmm, hindi nga ba ikaw yon? But why do these children have my face then?” paninindigan ni Juancho. Pilit na nagpapakita ng matapang na mukha si Orelia, desidido na siyang hindi masangkot sa lalaki matapos ang isang gabi ng pagkakamaling iyon. Mamamatay muna siya bago niya hayaang mapasakamay ng lalaki ang kanyang mga anak. “Or would you rather have me let you remember what transpired that night,” usal ng ni Juancho sabay ng pag haplos sa mga labi ni Orelia gamit ang kanyang daliri. “Don’t touch our mom you bad guy!” biglang pumigitna ang batang babae at pilit na itinulak si Juancho. Nakasunod rito ang takot na batang lalaki. Laking gulat ni Orelia sa biglaang kilos ng mga bata kaya hindi niya napigilan ang agarang paghawak ni Juancho sa mga ito. Handa na siyang itulak ang lalaki at bawiin ang bata nang nakita niya ang mga mata ni Juancho na nakatitig sa kambal, ang malamig at walang emosyon nitong mga mata ay napalitan ng lambot. Ito ay mga matang matagal niya ng hindi nakikita, ang mga matang minsan ng nagpapabilis sa tibok ng kanyang puso.
