Depois que a amiga de infância dele morreu, Eduardo Ribeiro me odiou por dez anos inteiros. No segundo dia após o casamento, ele pediu transferência para servir nas fronteiras. Durante esses dez anos, enviei incontáveis cartas, tentando lhe agradar de todas as formas, mas a resposta dele era sempre a mesma: "Se você realmente se sente culpada, então morra logo!" Até que, quando fui sequestrada, ele entrou sozinho no esconderijo dos bandidos e me salvou, levando vários tiros. Antes de morrer, com o último fio de força, ele arrancou a mão dele da minha. — O maior arrependimento da minha vida... foi ter me casado com você... — Se tudo pudesse recomeçar, por favor... não volte a me atormentar... No funeral, Sra. Ana, a mãe dele, soluçava de arrependimento: — Filho, a culpa é da mãe... eu não devia ter te forçado... O pai dele me lançou um olhar cheio de ódio: — Você matou a Jamile, e agora matou também meu filho! Maldita azarada, por que ainda não morre?! Até o coronel que tinha insistido no nosso casamento balançou a cabeça e suspirou: — Foi erro meu separar dois corações. Eu devo um pedido de desculpas ao Eduardo. Todos lamentavam por Eduardo Ribeiro. Inclusive eu. Fui expulsa da organização e, naquela mesma noite, engoli veneno no meio de um campo abandonado. Quando abri os olhos novamente, estava de volta à véspera do casamento. Desta vez, decidi realizar o desejo de todos eles.

En mi vida pasada, a escondidas vertí una Poción de Amor en la copa de mi compañero destinado, Jason Green, el Alfa de mi manada, y, tal como esperaba, se enamoró de mí. Celebramos la ceremonia de vínculo más grandiosa en la historia de la manada y nos convertimos en la pareja que todos envidiaban. El efecto de la Poción de Amor duraba siete años, pero yo, ingenua, creí que eso bastaría para ganarme su corazón de verdad. Pero Lilian Foster, la amiga de la infancia de Jason, cambió su propia lengua con una bruja del mercado negro a cambio del antídoto. En cuanto la verdad salió a la luz, el amor en los ojos de Jason se volvió un odio que me atravesó hasta los huesos. Sin perder tiempo, me vendió al mercado negro como sujeto vivo para experimentos y me obligó a beber un Frasco de Hechizo Corrosivo. Se me pudrió todo por dentro y morí de puro dolor. Ahora, he vuelto atrás en el tiempo, sosteniendo una vez más esa misma botella de Poción de Amor. Sin embargo, esta vez no dudé y me la bebí toda de un solo trago. «Jason, no volveré a rogar por tu amor. Me amaré a mí misma», me juré. Por eso , no pude evitar sorprenderme cuando fue él quien acabó arrepintiéndose.

Mi novio insistió en escalar de noche la montaña nevada para ver la cascada. Ese mismo día, resbalé y caí desde la cima. Al despertar, descubrí que no solo sufría amnesia, sino que también había perdido una pierna. Incluso mi novio se había convertido en el esposo de mi hermana. De repente, todos me abandonaron. Solo Samuel, mi psicólogo, me guió con paciencia y cuidado. Cuando me propuso matrimonio con flores y un anillo frente a todo el personal médico, creí ver al ángel que había venido a salvarme. Pero seis meses después de casarnos, lo escuché por casualidad hablando con su amigo: —Samuel, parece que la hipnosis de este año ha sido un éxito. Ya ayudaste a Valeria a obtener lo que quería, ¿para qué dar un paso más y casarte con Sofía? —¿Crees que lo deseaba? Es solo por si recupera la memoria y podría hacerle daño a Valeria. Así la vigilo de cerca. —¿Merece la pena hacer tanto por Valeria? Ya antes limpiaste todos sus desastres, ¿y ahora usas a Sofía para eso…? —Haría lo que fuera con tal de ver feliz a Valeria. Samuel apagó el cigarrillo con fuerza y, tras un largo silencio, respondió lentamente: —Además, solo es prestar un vientre… ¡Aprovechar lo inservible!

Everyone in the social circle of Kingsford said I was nothing more than a lapdog raised by Charles Mankin. I was always at his beck and call. I did every filthy, ludicrous thing for him under the sun. When he street raced, I rode shotgun. When he drank himself senseless, I made him hangover soup. When he chased girls, I prepared protection for them. Over time, everyone knew: Charles had a dog who never ran, never bit back, no matter how hard he kicked. They all said I must be madly in love with him. Even Charles started to believe it. So he pushed further, more freely, more cruelly, crossing lines as if they never existed. Then came my twenty-fifth birthday. He, in a rare stroke of mercy, said he'd celebrate it with me. But instead, what he got was the news that I was leaving the country. He went berserk, charging through the airport like a man possessed. I peeled his fingers off my wrist one by one, smiling like I'd never been happier. "Don't be stupid," I told him, still smiling. "That was never love." That night, Charles smashed apart his family home like a rabid dog.

It has been fifty-five days since my fiancé cut me off. I called off the wedding I'd waited eight long years for. All while he was caring for his childhood sweetheart, who was battling depression and seeking peace at a remote retreat. He even had the historic chapel—a local landmark called the Aethelred Sanctuary—closed to the public for six months because of her. And me? I was left to face the swarming reporters, hounded from one place to the next until I had nowhere left to hide—all because he disappeared without a word. Out of options, I went to the retreat to find him. But he turned me away, saying I would disturb the quiet and sanctity of the place. In the bitter cold of deep winter, I collapsed outside the gates, barely holding on. When I woke, I saw him—Jonathan—planting an entire garden of roses on the grounds, every bloom a declaration of love. Six months later, he finally left and returned home with his childhood sweetheart. The roses they had planted now filled what was supposed to be our wedding venue, from floor to ceiling. I watched them, cold and unmoved. What he didn't know was this—I was already engaged to someone else.

I, Calista Summers, have been in a secret relationship with Vernon Grayson, the boss of the biggest mafia organization in Merdico for five years. To others, Vernon is the epitome of a perfect gentleman, cold yet aloof, attractive yet abstaining from women. With a net worth in the tens of billions, he holds a lot of power. He has also kept himself scandal-free since the start of time. However, not many know that I am his only exception. I am the team captain of the cheerleading squad at Duke City College. I am known to be brave, straightforward, and passionate about everything. Vernon is a whole decade older than I am. He is mature and dangerous, but those are the exact qualities that draw me to him every time. He always lets me rest my head in his lap while in the back of his limited-edition Rolls-Royce, kisses every inch of my body before the floor-to-ceiling windows of his office, and takes my breath away in hidden toilet cubicles at major public charity galas. And every time, he's so gentle with me that I keep mistaking his doting on me as his love for me. Yet, he can also get cruel and merciless with me, making me beg and whine at his mercy. As for me, I was really falling for him because Vernon never lets any other woman get close to him. He chooses me every single time, and I believe that's what true love is. However, things change when his first love, Samara Horton, returns from Urop. Vernon starts showing me his cold, aloof side that leaves no room for argument. He stops being gentle with me, his mask falls away to reveal his true colors, and he no longer treats me as his equal who shares his world. At that moment, I finally realize that I am nothing more than a dirty secret he needs to keep hidden from the rest of the world. I am but a pawn that he can easily cast away at his convenience. I choose to put an end to our secret relationship altogether. I leave, taking nothing of his with me except for the baby in my womb. The baby is his heir, but he doesn't even know that he exists.

When the gas cooker exploded and Sharon Milton was close to death, only her five-year-old son, James Collins, was at her side. Her spirit stood next to James and looked at him as he sobbed and called Sean Collins. He begged Sean to come home and save his mommy. However, Sean only scolded him and told him not to lie like Sharon before hanging up. James wiped the tears from his eyes and called 911. When the ambulance finally arrived, Sean appeared and stept in. "Daddy, Mommy is bleeding out and needs the ambulance. Please don't take it from her!" "You little liar. Looks like your mom hasn't taught you very well. Step aside! Riley is due. She needs this ambulance more than Sharon!" James's eyes had turned red due to all the crying, but Sean pushed him away and left without even taking a look back. He got into the ambulance with Riley in his arms. "Daddy... Daddy! Please save Mommy!" James sobbed as he chased after the ambulance, but he didn't see the speeding truck that was heading towards him. Sharon shouted her son's name and wanted to push him away, but there was nothing she could do. She could only watch as James was run over by the truck. Beneath the wheels, there was a pool of blood spreading across the ground. Sharon was about to lose her mind. Over the past years, Sean had abandoned Sharon and James countless times for Riley Winston and her daughter. Whenever Sharon and Sean had an argument about this matter, Sean would always just say that he was repaying Riley's father for saving his life. Sharon just felt that Sean didn't know what he was doing. What she didn't expect was that he didn't care about her and James's lives at all. Sharon felt that she was the one who killed James. Her heart ached as she took her last breath. If there was another life, she just wished that she had nothing to do with Sean.
