Lucky Stars

At seven months pregnant, I overhear my Alpha mate, Christopher Scott, secretly planning to break tradition by promoting his secretary to a Beta and handing the Luna's duties over to her. His friend urges him to reconsider. "Luna is about to give birth. Isn't it inappropriate to throw a promotion banquet for Scarlett right now?" But Christopher dismisses his concerns. "What can I do? Scarlett is carrying my pup too. I can't just ignore her. "Besides, with Rebecca's temper, she'd definitely throw a huge fit if she found out beforehand. I might as well wait until she has delivered the pup and is too exhausted to interfere, and only then will I hold Scarlett's promotion ceremony. I say nothing. I pretend I know nothing at all and walk away. On the day I go into labor, Christopher holds Scarlett Lane's promotion ceremony at the pack's most sacred altar. While the entire pack is celebrating Scarlett's rise, the doors of the altar are suddenly kicked open. My father, the Alpha King, walks in. "Christopher Scott, is this how you treat my daughter?"

Di hari ulang tahunku, tunanganku menukarkan poin supermarket untuk membelikanku sepasang sarung tangan cuci piring. Namun, di lelang, dia menawar paling tinggi demi membelikan permata seharga 10 miliar untuk cinta pertamanya. Aku marah, tetapi dia justru menuduhku sebagai perempuan materialistis. "Aku kasih kamu uang buat dipakai, bukannya sudah sewajarnya kamu melayaniku? Ini sebenarnya ujian terakhir yang mau aku kasih sebelum nikah. Kalau kamu lulus, kita nikah. Tapi kamu benaran bikin aku kecewa." Aku mengajukan putus, dan dia langsung berbalik melamar cinta pertamanya. Lima tahun kemudian, kami bertemu kembali di sebuah pulau liburan pribadi. Kevin melihatku mengenakan pakaian kerja sambil memungut sampah di pantai, lalu langsung melontarkan ejekan. "Celine, dulu kamu remehin sarung tangan yang kubelikan, sekarang malah mungut sampah di sini." "Sekarang, sekalipun kamu mohon agar aku nikahi kamu, aku nggak akan melirikmu lagi." Aku tidak menanggapinya. Pelajaran praktik sosial putraku berjudul membersihkan halaman belakang rumah bersama orang tua. Ayahnya memperluas halaman sampai ke tepi pantai, membersihkannya sungguh melelahkan.

Seven years ago, my husband, the King of the Humans, banished me to the Everfrost Plains, where my life came to a tragic end. Seven years later, a grave illness befalls the Queen of the Humans, and blood spills endlessly from her lips. The clerics claim that I have cursed her. Only the blood taken from my heart can cure her fully. Gareth Lancaster, my former husband, comforts his new wife, the queen, and says, "You have nothing to fear. To think she's still trying to harm you, her older sister, even when she has been exiled! "I'll march to the Everfrost Plains right away and carve her heart out to use as your cure. Then, I'll have her soul sent to hell to suffer in torment for all eternity." Sword in hand, Gareth heads to the Everfrost Plains. He finds a Serpentkin, one who should've died in the Great War of the Beasts and Men seven years ago. The Serpentkin has frozen solid, standing before my grave with his hands clasped together as if in prayer. In front of my grave sits a young girl. She says, "You won't be able to take my mother's heart. She died many years ago. I stayed here to let the truth be known to all…"

Pacarku, Julian Jovan adalah grandmaster catur yang jenius. Waktu umurnya 16 tahun, dia jadi grandmaster termuda yang pernah ada di Benua Nathan. Aku habiskan 10 tahun hidupku untuknya, tapi dia nggak pernah ungkit soal pernikahan. Tapi, pas dia mencapai puncak karier dan memenangkan Grand Slam, dia tetap menolak ingkar janji yang dulu dia buat sama keluarganya soal karier. “Dalam rencanaku, nggak ada pernikahan atau komitmen jangka panjang lainnya sebelum semua targetku tercapai.” Mendengar ini, aku nggak debat dengannya. Aku diam-diam kemas kopernya untuk Kejuaraan Dunia dan doakan yang terbaik untuknya. Julian nggak tahu, saat dia mengangkat piala kejuaraan di hadapan dunia, aku dengan tubuhku yang sekarat sedang menandatangani surat persetujuan kematianku sendiri.

My Alpha mate's childhood sweetheart and I are pregnant at the same time. To protect her reputation, he announces to the public that her pup is his. However, he claims that my pup is a bastard that I conceived after having an affair with another man. I go from being the noble Luna to a despised slut everyone scorns instantly. When I question my mate, Simon Latham, he shrugs and says, "Xandra has always been a goody two-shoes. She won't be able to handle the gossip from being pregnant without a mate. You're the Luna. Isn't it your duty to help your people?" On that day, any form of affection and love I ever felt for him die down completely. I secretly schedule an abortion and book a plane ticket. From now on, I will leave Simon for good.

Eine Woche vor der Markierungszeremonie verlegte mein Verlobter, Alpha Max Schwarz, den Veranstaltungsort plötzlich in Glühwürmchenwald. Freunde scherzten: „Nur weil Sanna Glühwürmchen sehen will, änderst du eigenmächtig den Ort und sagst es nicht mal Luca! Was, wenn sie vor leeren Stühlen steht?“ „Außerdem war Mondseeufer doch Lucas Wahl! Glaubst du wirklich, sie würde dem zustimmen?“ Max erwiderte lässig: „Sie hat für mich bereits schwere Verbrennungen in Kauf genommen. Da wird sie mir doch in so einer Lappalie folgen.“ „Außerdem kümmert sich Luca um jede Kleinigkeit der Zeremonie. Sie wird die Änderung bestimmt mitbekommen.“ Ich lauschte unentdeckt vor der Tür, sagte nichts und schlich davon. Am Tag der Zeremonie rief Max mich nervös im Glühwürmchenwald an. „Zeremonie beginnt gleich, wo bist du?“ Ich blickte auf das funkelnde Seeufer und antwortete leise: „Ich bin schon da, wo ich hingehöre. Meine Zeremonie beginnt auch gleich.“

Pour le troisième jour consécutif, Lilia Clerc s'agenouillait devant la statue de la Déesse de lune, protectrice de toutes les meutes, priant avec ferveur pour Arsène Chauvet la paix de son esprit après sa mort. Lorsque l'épuisement menaçait de la submerger, des lignes de texte ont apparu soudainement devant ses yeux. « Il est vraiment impitoyable. Son amoureuse d'enfance s'est enfuie en apprenant qu'il aura bientôt la cérémonie avec une autre, et il a simulé sa propre mort pour la rejoindre ! » « Il est en train de profiter de moments romantiques dans les bois Clair de Lune avec sa maîtresse tandis que Lilia a presque pleuré toutes les larmes de son corps à cause de ce salaud. » « Malheureusement, Lilia ne s'est jamais rendu compte qu'Arsène Chauvet l'avait trompée. Quand il sera revenu après avoir simulé sa mort, elle l'épousera tout de même avec joie. » Lilia ne comprenait pas comment ces mots apparaissaient devant ses yeux, mais elle croyait que c'était un miracle accordé par la déesse. Après avoir tout lu, elle est restée bouche bée de stupéfaction et a immédiatement téléphoné à son père, Alpha de sa tribu. « Papa, concernant le mariage arrangé dont tu m'avais parlé, je suis prête à l'accepter. » Deux semaines plus tard, la nouvelle du mariage arrangé entre Lilia Clerc et l'Alpha de la tribu Saïan dans le nord s'est répandue dans tous les clans des loups. L'ami d'Arsène qui faisait partie du complot de la fausse mort s'est précipité pour confronter Lilia : « Es-tu vraiment si pressée de trouver le prochain alors qu'Arsène vient de nous quitter ? » « Il est déjà mort. Je ne peux pas rester veuve pour le reste de ma vie à cause de lui, n'est-ce pas ? »

Une semaine avant la cérémonie d'union avec l'Alpha, il a soudainement changé le lieu pour la forêt des lucioles. Un ami a plaisanté : « C'est juste parce que Lily Moreau voulait voir des lucioles que tu as modifié l'endroit de la cérémonie sans prévenir Alice Durand ? Et si elle se présentait à l'ancien lieu ? » « En plus, Alice a choisi les rives du lac de Lune. Elle va accepter ? » Julien Richard a répondu avec désinvolture : « Elle a bien accepté de subir de graves brûlures pour me sauver, alors changer le lieu de la cérémonie, elle ne va pas me désobéir pour ça. » « D'ailleurs, elle s'est occupée de toute l'organisation de la cérémonie elle-même, elle va certainement remarquer que j'ai modifié l'endroit. » Derrière la porte, j'ai écouté leur conversation en silence, puis je suis partie sans rien dire. Le jour de la cérémonie d'union, Julien m'a appelée d'urgence depuis la forêt des lucioles. « La cérémonie va bientôt commencer, où es-tu ? » Calme, j'ai regardé les reflets scintillants à la surface du lac et ai répondu : « Je suis déjà arrivée, et ma cérémonie va aussi bientôt commencer. »

During a company team-building event, I collapse from a seafood allergy. Yet my fiance, Frederick Scott, rushes Beatrice Sutton, who only twisted her ankle, to the hospital. I come close to dying because I don't get treatment in time. Later, Frederick explains, "Beatrice is my best friend's sister. He's seriously ill now, and I promised him I'd take care of his sister. I swear I'll keep my distance from her from now on." This isn't the first time I've heard an excuse like that. On our fifth anniversary, Beatrice accidentally deleted a work file and burst into tears out of worry. When Frederick heard about it, he left me stranded on a mountain and drove back to the office himself. I spent a whole day and night walking home through the rain. On Christmas, Beatrice's house lost power. Frederick was worried that she might be scared of being alone, and he rushed over to her place without even telling me, leaving me out in the snow waiting for him until dawn. These kinds of things have happened countless times. Afterward, he always brushes them off with the same excuse. I've long since lost all faith in him and no longer believe a single word he says. I pick up my phone and call the company that keeps reaching out to me. "I've decided to accept your offer from last time. I'll bring the core technology with me."

My Alpha and fated mate Dion took his first love to the Moonlight Forest to enjoy the moonlight and obtain the Moon Goddess's blessing on the day of the Moonlight Festival, a day that he could only spend with his mate. I didn't stop him, and instead prepared his luggage for him. Dion was very satisfied with my performance. "With a pup in your womb, you finally learned to behave. You finally look like a Luna." After they left, I immediately had an abortion. In my last life, I had put a silver knife on my belly to stop him from going on a date with his first love. He was forced to stay for his pup. However, his first love was ravaged before getting killed by other werewolves while on her way to the Moonlight Forest alone. Dion didn't pin the blame on me, as if nothing of the sort had happened. However, the moment I had my pup, he then skinned my pup in front of me. Only then did I understand how much hate he had inside of him. He tortured me, and I died in a horrific manner. When I opened my eyes once more, I had been reborn on the day he and his first love was supposed to go to the Moonlight Forest. I had another chance in life, and I secretly started to plot my revenge. He would pay for everything.
