Bercerai dan menikah lagi, aku sudah lupa berapa kali aku dan Rangga rujuk dalam pernikahan. Dia pernah memperlakukanku seperti sesuatu yang berharga, tetapi kurang dari setahun setelah pernikahan kami, dia mengajukan perceraian pertama kami. Alasannya sederhana, Sarah akan kembali. “Sarah itu seorang tokoh publik,” katanya padaku. “Aku tak ingin ada yang mengira dia terlibat dengan pria beristri.” Selebritas tingkat rendah itu tidak punya apa pun kecuali pengorbanan ayahnya. Ayahnya dulu rela mati demi Rangga, halangi peluru demi dia, nyawa ganti nyawa. Dan karena itu, Rangga merasa berutang segalanya padanya. Setiap kali Sarah kembali ke negara ini, Rangga menceraikanku. Dan setiap kali Sarah pergi, kami menikah lagi. Pertama kali kami berpisah, aku menenggelamkan air mataku dalam wiski dan terhuyung-huyung kembali ke rumahnya dalam keadaan setengah mabuk. Lampu di dalam terasa hangat, Rangga bersamanya. Sementara aku berdiri di luar, menggigil sepanjang malam. Kali kedua, aku mengikuti setiap gerak-geriknya—restoran, lelang, acara amal—hanya untuk ‘tak sengaja’ ketemu dengannya lagi. Kemudian, aku belajar lebih baik. Saat dia menyebut kata cerai, aku akan diam-diam mengepak koperku dan menghilang dari rumahnya. Cinta dan penghinaan telah membuatku terjebak dalam siklus putus-nyambung dengannya yang tiada habisnya. Namun kali ini, ketika Rangga menungguku di Kantor Catatan Sipil untuk menikah lagi, aku tak pernah muncul...

You don’t hide from us."  - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - When Alpha-heir Raiden sees his best friend staring at the new girl, Atalanta, he notices an instant spark between them. Zev is against the notion of having a mate and refuses to date anyone before he has rejected his mate. Raiden tries everything to get Zev and Atalanta alone, hoping they won't be able to deny their attraction. But the more he tries, the more Raiden realizes he's developing feelings for Atalanta as well. Atalanta has no interest in dating either; she's too busy focusing on her mission.

And what will happen to their relationship once they find out who she really is?

What happens when Alpha Brax is unable to resist temptation anymore? Argo is sent away on a trip with his brother to Alpha Brax's pack.

“Please...come back to me, be my Luna again, Charlotte,” Hayden said. I sneered. “You don't even qualify to be my Omega. What makes you think I would want to be your Luna?” “Then let me be your slave,” the shameless mate who had rejected me begged. ------------------- I had been claimed and married to my mate, Hayden for three years, but everything changed when his brother died. He began to ignore me and get closer to his brother’s widow, Sofia. Everyone could see how much he favored Sofia over his own mate, me. I turned a blind eye and endured it all because he was my destined mate and I loved him so much. But Sofia framed me for causing her miscarriage and everyone blamed me for it, not to mention my mate. My mate forced me to kneel and apologize to that bitch who had tried many times to drive wedges between me and my mate, with the help of his sister, Milla. Hayden didn't even want to listen to my explanations. He gave me a choice - apologize or divorce. I would never apologize for something I didn't do and thus I chose divorce. No one knew I was actually the next-Alpha-in-line of one of the most powerful packs. After the divorce, I went back to my pack and take over my birthright - becoming a powerful Alpha and showing Hayden that he was nothing to me and my life was better off without him!

Divorciados y vueltos a casar. Ya ni sé cuántas veces Aaron y yo hemos pasado por lo mismo. Antes me trataba como si yo fuera lo más valioso para él, pero no había pasado ni un año de la boda cuando me pidió el divorcio por primera vez. La razón era sencilla: Vivian iba a regresar. —Vivian es una figura pública —me dijo—. No quiero que nadie piense que se está metiendo con un hombre casado. Esa actriz de cuarta no era nadie si no fuera por el sacrificio de su padre. Le dieron un balazo que iba para Aaron. Una vida por otra. Y por eso, Aaron sentía que le debía todo. Cada vez que Vivian volvía al país, Aaron se divorciaba de mí. Y cada vez que se iba, nos volvíamos a casar. La primera vez que terminamos, ahogué mis penas en whisky y volví a su casa a tropezones, medio borracha. Las luces de la casa se veían cálidas. Estaba con ella. Y yo me quedé afuera, temblando de frío, resistiendo la noche entera. La segunda vez, le seguí el rastro a todos lados; restaurantes, subastas, galas de beneficencia, solo para “encontrármelo por accidente” una y otra vez. Con el tiempo, aprendí. En cuanto mencionaba el divorcio, yo hacía mi maleta en silencio y me iba de su mansión sin hacer ruido. Mi amor y la humillación me mantuvieron atrapada en ese ciclo interminable de rupturas y reconciliaciones. Pero esta vez, cuando Aaron me esperó en el registro civil para volver a casarnos, no fui.

I was reborn. Opening my eyes on the sofa, the television flickered before me, broadcasting another financial news segment about my husband, Jasper Brolin. The Alpha of the Moonblood pack, a man who had sat at the top of the billionaire list for years, was speaking with his usual cool authority. Broad-shouldered and sharp-featured, he carried an air of cold command that made him untouchable. Whenever he stepped into the public eye, the crowd surged with screams and breathless admiration. My marriage to him was the envy of our entire circle, and every woman wished to step into my shoes. As I watched the screen, memories of my tragic death in my last life came rushing back, sending a quiet ache through my chest. My wolf rumbled low in my chest. "So we're back. Now what?" "Break the bond," I whispered. "I'm leaving him." "He'll never agree to that." "That's why I need her help," I replied, thinking of the woman I had always disliked—Halle. Halle walked into the café, a smug smirk was plastered on her face. Having grown up alongside Jasper, she was regarded as his inner circle, and people never failed to give her the highest courtesy. I slid a mate-bond dissolution document across the table. "I need your help, Halle. And of course, there's something in it for you too." She glanced through the papers, suspicion flashing in her eyes. "Are you leaving him?" she asked. My voice was calm, "Maybe you're the one he really wants by his side." In my last life, I was the perfect Mrs. Brolin, envied by all, yet never the one he held closest. This time, I would take my unborn pup and leave quietly.
