Modern System

The day my husband, Caleb Vale, buries his first love, Layla Shaw, he stands in front of me and throws our wedding ring into the sea. For the next 12 years, the breakfasts I bring him go straight into the trash, and the scarf I stay up all night knitting is tossed into the fire and burned to ash. The cruelest moment is when he looks me in the eye and says, "Aurora, if you really want to please me, you might as well go die." But when a mugger comes at me with a knife, Caleb still steps in front of me without a second's hesitation. As he lies dying in my arms, he uses the very last of his strength to force out a few broken words. "Go... I hope I never see you again in my next life." At the funeral, Helena Rogers sobs until she faints. "This is all my fault. I never should've arranged your marriage..." Everyone around us pities him and resents me. They whisper that I'm a jinx and wonder why I'm not the one who died. And honestly, I wonder the same thing. Why not me? After Caleb is lowered into the ground, I climb to the top floor of the building and jump. As I hover on the edge of death, a cold, mechanical voice echoes in my mind. "Binding complete. Wish detected. The system will now send you back 12 years."

The System told me that, as a player, I stood a chance of reviving my beloved if I played the game enough times. As such, I gave my heart to charm Mila Gibbs, even if it meant dying ninety-nine times. When I played the game for the hundredth time, Mila sent me into a room with a deviant just for her true love's fancy. "You're not going to die anyway. Just make Julian laugh, and I don't mind marrying you." She didn't know that once I played the game a hundred times, my wish would be granted, success notwithstanding. I shall hence disappear from her world without a trace.

"Mr. Clarke, can you help me get rid of the tattoo on my butt?" The young man asks me for help with red-rimmed eyes. A lot of people have specifically requested me to tattoo something on their body. Honestly, this is the first time I've received a request to remove a tattoo from one's butt. He grits his teeth, as though he has finally made up his mind. "I just found out that my girlfriend has a husband! I want to break up with her, so I must get rid of the tattoo!" I nod in response. "Strip down and let me see the area and the mass covered." The man hesitates for a moment before turning his back on me and slowly taking off his pants. As soon as his right buttcheek is revealed, I feel my breath getting hitched in my throat. My wife, Annie Sylvester's face is actually tattooed on that area.

Elena dachte, sie hätte alles – bis sie die nackte Wahrheit über ihren Ehemann erfuhr. Ohne jede Scham betrog Julian sie vor aller Welt. Er dachte, sie wäre die schwache Ehefrau, die alles schluckt. Ein gewaltiger Irrtum. Wer Elena unterschätzt, verliert alles. Innerhalb kürzester Zeit legte sie sein Leben in Schutt und Asche: Die Geliebte wanderte hinter Gitter, die Firmenanteile und das Vermögen landeten auf Elenas Konto. Ohne einen Blick zurück unterschrieb sie die Scheidungspapiere. Eigentlich wollte sie nie wieder einem Mann vertrauen. Doch kaum ist sie Single, beginnt Elena heller zu strahlen als je zuvor. Plötzlich stehen die mächtigsten Männer der Welt Schlange. Einige fordern sie mit harter Hand, andere werben mit unendlicher Geduld um ihr Herz. Sie alle beten sie an, sie alle wollen nur sie. Doch die Regeln haben sich geändert. Früher war sie die Trophäe an Julians Seite. Heute ist sie diejenige, die die Karten verteilt. Elena entscheidet – und diesmal spielt sie nur nach ihren eigenen Regeln.

It's been five years since I started trying to win over Zachary Pierce. I even went so far as to have a child through IVF, hoping it would finally make him care. But no matter what I do, I can never reach 100 percent affection from him. It always stays at 99 percent. Sometimes it even drops lower. One day, exhausted and aching, I go looking for him. As I reach his room, I hear laughter coming from inside. "She still hasn't figured out the egg wasn't even hers. The moment the baby was born, Zach's affection score for her dropped to zero." "So what if she finds out? She should be grateful that her face looks so much like Yvonne's. Honestly, I'm done entertaining her. It's exhausting." At that moment, everything clicks. All the hope I've held onto, every sacrifice I've made, they were all just a joke. I turn away and say to the system, "End this for me. Send me to another world."

My son, Kaden Watt, shouted at me menacingly, “I don’t have to pretend anymore! I bet you didn’t know that I could hear your conversations with the System. I never once thought of you as my father. Every bit of it was an act. A man that desperate makes me sick.” My wife, Silvia Watt, walked in with her true love, her affectionate eyes reflecting hostility. “If it weren’t for fear of the System punishing Simon Bartone, I would’ve filed for divorce a long time ago. My son doesn’t deserve a spineless man for a father. Watch yourself, or I’ll come after you.” The trio stood there, as if they had their perfect ending. I curled my lips. Well, who was to say that I wasn’t acting too? A player in a game could never fall in love with NPCs.

I'm a succubus who gathers energy by clearing System missions, adept at the game of love. One day, right after completing a honey trap mission, I was sent to a SSS-level horror game at the very next second. The boss was invincible and bloodthirsty, watching coolly as other players rested in pieces before turning to the rest of us. "Now choose—how do you want to die?" While other players were wetting their pants and trying to find a loophole to survive, I picked up on something different. A handsome, powerful target beneath that cold, horrific exterior. Hence, when he reached me, I smiled enigmatically as I told him my wish. "I wish to be conquered by a truly powerful Entity, dominated from soul to flesh, and to die in pure ecstasy." I watched him pause in shock and added, "Oh, and you must do it yourself."

Before I married Gavin Whitaker, his mother put me through a so-called premarital obedience test. She made me kneel and serve tea to the entire family, so I knelt. She made me walk barefoot across a reflexology path to prove my "resilience". I went through it. She made me sign a prenuptial agreement stating that if we ever divorced, I would leave with nothing. I signed. Throughout it all, Gavin watched coldly from the sidelines. All he said was, "Sienna, don’t make a big deal out of this. Just bear with it. These are our family’s rules." I smiled and nodded, even as tears slid down my face. The final test came without warning. His mother slapped me hard across the face. "If you marry into this family, you need to understand what humility means." I didn’t move. However, upstairs in the study, where Gavin was in the middle of a video conference, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed. He clutched his face and stared at me in terror. [System Notification: You and Gavin Whitaker have successfully bound to the Empathy Sync System. From this moment on, all harm inflicted upon the host will be experienced in full by the other party.]

„Das ist also das Ende.“ … In einem Leben war Valerie, Luna vom Eclipse-Rudel, für ihren Partner gestorben, der sie nicht liebte, für eine Familie, die nur ihre Fehler sah, und für ein Rudel, das sie nie respektierte, weil alle ihre Adoptivschwester Alyn bevorzugten. Sie verbrachte ihr letztes Leben in Elend und Reue, nur mit den Spott ihrer Schwester. Selbst der Rest ihrer Familie konnte ihr in ihren letzten Augenblicken nicht beistehen. Aber jetzt war sie wiedergeboren. Sie erwachte Monate vor ihrem Tod und war bereit, ihr Schicksal zu ändern. Dieses Mal wusste sie, was sie zu tun hatte: Sie musste ihre Position als Luna und ihre Bindung zu ihrem Partner aufgeben und die Menschen zurücklassen, die sich nie um sie gekümmert hatten. Es war die beste Lösung für sie ... und ihr ungeborenes Kind. Aber als sie Tristan, ihrem Partner, der sie einst gehasst hatte, gegenüberstand, hatte sich sein Blick völlig verändert. Die Bindungen, von denen sie dachte, dass sie längst zerbrochen waren, waren nun noch komplizierter geworden, insbesondere da ein anderer Alpha um ihre Zuneigung buhlte. Und wenn es darum geht, die Vergangenheit hinter sich zu lassen und loszulassen, welchen Weg wird sie wählen?
