Lucas Empire Records

The year I was reborn was the year the vampire war began. The first thing I did was get rid of the pup. My mate's pup. Alpha Lucas's. In my last life, he covered for his childhood friend, Sarah, when she mated a vampire. He took my pure-blood pup and swapped him with her half-breed bastard. They branded me a traitor. Tortured me to death in a silver dungeon. And my own son, brainwashed by Sarah, stood over my corpse and told me to rot in hell. When I opened my eyes again, I was three months pregnant. I didn't hesitate. I walked straight to the witch's hut and drank the poison she gave me. But as the life drained away, I uncorked another bottle: an expensive Mimic Potion. It fakes a pup's heartbeat. It gives off the scent of an expecting mother. Lucas wants a child to take the fall for Sarah's crime. Fine. I'll give him a show. This time, I have no weakness.

Yo soy Isabela Cruz, hija del primer padrino de la Isla Santa Lucía. Crecí siendo rebelde, y mi padre, temiendo que por un arranque de impulsividad me casara con cualquier don nadie, decidió ordenar mi compromiso con Lucas Marino, heredero de la nueva y poderosa familia Marino. Aunque es un matrimonio político, al menos quería elegir mi propio anillo. Por eso asistí a la subasta privada de las familias mafiosas. Cuando el anillo de joya principal salió a la luz, levanté mi paleta de puja. Antes de que el martillo cayera, una voz femenina, arrogante y altiva, sonó a mi espalda: —¿Tú, una campesinita, quieres competir conmigo? ¡Doscientos mil! Si tienes dignidad, lárgate. El lugar quedó en un silencio repentino, roto solo por el clic sutil de las cámaras. Me giré y vi a una mujer con un vestido dorado de alta costura. Sonreía con desdén, como si toda la sala fuese su escenario personal. Antes de que pudiera responder, el subastador bajó el martillo con prisa. —¡Adjudicado! ¡Felicidades, señorita Sofía Duarte, por obtener el anillo estelar “Estrella Eterna”! Fruncí el ceño, sintiendo cómo me ardía el pecho. —¿Se puede cerrar una puja sin terminarla? Qué falta de reglas tiene este lugar. Sofía se volvió hacia mí, sus ojos recorriéndome de los pies a la cabeza con una frialdad cortante. —¿Reglas? —rió con desprecio—. Cariño, yo soy la ahijada favorita de Lucas Marino. Aquí, yo soy la regla. No pude evitar reír. Qué coincidencia tan divina: Lucas es justamente el nombre de mi prometido. Saqué el teléfono sin dudar. —Lucas, tu “ahijada” acaba de arrebatarme el anillo de compromiso que quería. Dime, ¿qué vas a hacer al respecto?

On the day of my daughter Eleanor Baldwin's second birthday party, my entire family stood nervously by the banquet hall entrance. They were not there to greet guests, but rather to keep me from showing up and causing a scene. Mom's face was written all over with anxiety. "Lucas wouldn't actually crash the party, would he?" Dad's brow stayed tightly furrowed. "Who knows? That disgrace of a son is capable of anything." My younger brother, Cody Baldwin, had his arm wrapped gently around my wife, Kendra Clarkson, trying to reassure her. "Don't worry. If Lucas dares to show up, I'll keep you and Ellie safe." Kendra nodded slowly. "If it really comes to that... maybe we should just let Ellie be his goddaughter. At least then, we're still family..." However, the party came and went, and I never appeared. I had already made up my mind to join a classified national defense research program. Only this time, it was for good.

Vor der Hochzeit stellte ich fest, dass ich im mehr als zwei Monaten schwanger war. Lucas Weber war jedoch leicht betrunken, strich über meinen Bauch und sagte halb im Scherz: „Mia, ich bin noch nicht bereit, Vater zu werden, lass uns dieses Kind erstmal nicht bekommen, okay?“ Ich hatte darauf nicht unruhig reagiert und antwortete leise: „Okay.“ In meinem früheren Leben hatte ich darauf bestanden, dieses Kind zu behalten, aber Sophia Schulz hatte zufällig eine Fehlgeburt, die es ihr schwierig machte, schwanger zu werden. Lucas hegte deshalb einen Groll gegen mich und war nach der Heirat kaltherzig zu mir. Und ich hatte eine schwierige Geburt, einen von Füßen in die Höllenpforte hinein, bevor ich den Sohn zur Welt brachte, aber auch er weinte und wollte Sophia als seine Mutter anerkennen. Später, als ich bei einem Autounfall einen Blutsturz erlitt, gingen Lucas und unser Sohn gleichgültig schnell an mir vorbei. Sie begleiteten nur um Sophia zur Entbindung. Oberhalb verblutete ich. Unter der Decke hielten sie Leuchtstäbe in die Höhe zum Feier der Ankunft des neuen Lebens. In meinem neuen Leben werde ich mich nicht mehr selbst aufgeben und keinen falschen Weg mehr gehen. Ich wählte die Nummer des Dekans und sagte: „Ich bin bereit, an der Polarexpedition teilzunehmen.“

Will he be able to make anyone remember him to be able to leave a mark on this world?

Se você e a antiga paixão sofressem um acidente ao mesmo tempo, quem o seu marido salvaria? Quando Lucas Farias pegou no colo a antiga paixão e saiu dali, junto com a vida que escapava, com o filho que ela perdeu, morreu também o coração de Estela Silveira. Foi uma troca. Estela conseguiu casar com o homem que mais amava. Todo mundo sabia que esse casamento foi roubado por ela, que foi ela quem separou Lucas e a antiga paixão para tomar o lugar. Ela achava que, com o tempo, veria o coração dele mudar, que um dia ele olharia para ela. Até que, quando enterrou com as próprias mãos o bebê de três meses que nem chegou a nascer, ela finalmente acordou. — Vamos nos divorciar. Um papel, e nada mais entre os dois. Três meses depois, entre luzes e vestidos de gala, ela estava no palco recebendo um prêmio. O homem a encarou por três segundos, surpreso, antes de acenar calmamente para as pessoas ao redor: — Sim, essa é a minha esposa. — Esposa? Estela levantou um sorriso, entregando o acordo de divórcio na mão dele: — Desculpa, senhor Lucas, ex-esposa. O homem, sempre frio e distante, enlouqueceu na hora. Com os olhos vermelhos e a voz tremendo: — Ex-esposa o quê? Eu nunca aceitei isso!

I am diagnosed with severe systemic lupus erythematosus, and I only have three days left to live. When my husband rejects my 188th plea for help, I take my test results and enter the hospice care center. "Hello, I'd like to schedule my own cremation process and apply for government aid." Ten minutes later, they arrive. Before I can speak, my lawyer husband, Jasper Horton, coldly slaps me across the face. "You're faking a terminal illness just to steal attention from Janice?" My doctor brother, Casey Carter, snatches the medical report from my hand and scoffs at it. "Lupus? If you're going to fake being sick, at least make it believable. Only one in a million people gets this." I endure the pain in my body, return to the counter, and hand in the application form and my medical records once more. The staff member sees the butterfly-shaped rash on my wrist and sympathizes with me. "I have no family left," I say. "I'm requesting cremation in three days, location doesn't matter. I just don't want my death to burden anyone."

Five years ago, Nina Hale lost everything… her family, her reputation, and the man she once loved. Betrayed by her own sister and abandoned by those she trusted most, she disappeared without a trace. Now she’s back. With a new identity and a burning determination, Nina is ready to reclaim her life and chase the dream she once gave up: becoming a star actress. But her return awakens old enemies, and her scheming sister Lydia is determined to ruin her again. Just when Nina thinks things can’t get worse, she’s caught in another trap… and unexpectedly crosses paths with a quiet, lonely little boy. Ethan Grant hasn’t spoken in years. Feeling responsible for him, Nina agrees to stay and help the child come out of his shell. But she didn’t expect Ethan’s dangerously charming father, Lucas Grant, to enter the picture. Cold, powerful, and impossible to read, Lucas slowly finds himself drawn to the woman who brightens his son’s world. What begins as a simple act of kindness soon turns into something far more complicated, because Nina came back for revenge. She never planned to fall in love. ********** “I saw you with him,” Lucas said quietly, but the tension in his jaw gave him away. Nina exhaled, crossing her arms. “You don’t get to care.” “Don’t I?” He stepped in, close enough that she had to tilt her head back to meet his eyes. “This is just a contract.” “Then why does it bother me?” His hand hovered near her waist, not touching—yet. “It shouldn’t.” Her breath faltered. His gaze darkened, “And yet it does.”
