Mãe Solteira

Fernando Rocha finalmente aceitou meu pedido de casamento. Ele fez questão de me lembrar para me vestir bem, dizendo que ele havia preparado uma surpresa especial para mim. Mas, quando cheguei deslumbrante ao local da cerimônia, não havia noivo no altar. Fernando virou-se para a minha meia-irmã, que estava ao lado dele, e sorriu: — Você sempre disse que casamentos são chatos e cheios de formalidades. Hoje, vou te mostrar como é um casamento divertido. O que acha? O mestre de cerimônias então anunciou, em voz alta: — O casamento está suspenso! O meu amigo de infância puxou o balão de água que já estava estrategicamente preparado acima da minha cabeça, estourando-o e me molhando da cabeça aos pés. Fernando arqueou as sobrancelhas, com um sorriso provocador, e disse: — Nilda, era só uma brincadeira. Você não achou mesmo que eu ia me casar com você, achou? Aquele casamento não passava de uma farsa, uma encenação planejada para animar a minha meia-irmã, que estava lutando contra uma depressão. Ao me ver em silêncio, Fernando continuou com o mesmo tom zombeteiro: — Se você está com tanta pressa para casar, escolha qualquer um dos convidados aqui e case com ele! Mas, quando eu realmente entrei de braços dados com um noivo para celebrar a cerimônia, eles ficaram atordoados.

Alors que le corps d’Isabella Luz se vidait de leur enfant à naître, Geoffrey Halem levait sa coupe au retour flamboyant de son amour de jeunesse. Quatre années de soins patients, de nuits à veiller, de présence fidèle… tout cela fut balayé d’un revers de main méprisant. Pour lui, elle n’avait été que l’ombre qui tient le foyer : une domestique, une cuisinière, rien de plus. Isabella toucha le fond du désespoir et y puisa une force inattendue : celle de signer la rupture. Dans leur cercle huppé, on ricanait de sa réputation de femme « pot de colle », de celle qui ne sait pas lâcher prise. On fit des paris. « Avant ce soir, elle sera revenue ramper », souriait-on. Geoffrey, lui, affichait un calme olympien. « Un jour ? C’est long. Donnez-lui une demi-journée tout au plus, elle reviendra d’elle-même. » Mais le rideau était tombé. Isabella ne jouait plus. Elle se leva, épousseta les cendres de son ancienne vie, renoua avec la carrière sacrifiée et laissa de nouveaux visages croiser son chemin. Les heures s’égrenèrent en jours, puis en semaines. Le silence de son absence devint assourdissant dans la maison vide de Geoffrey. Et pour la première fois, la panique lui serra la gorge. Avant qu’il ne puisse l’atteindre, une silhouette s’interposa. Une main ferme le repoussa, une présence glacée qui glaça l’air ambiant. John Johnson, le regard aussi coupant qu’une lame, lâcha cet avertissement cinglant : « On ne touche pas à ta belle-sœur. » Il ne l’avait jamais aimée. Il s’en rendait compte maintenant, alors qu’il venait de la perdre. Mais lorsqu’il voulut enfin s’agenouiller pour elle, il n’y avait plus de place.

Three years after Alpha King Damien Caldwell marks me, Drake Whitaker finally remembers I exist. Turns out he really believes I'll "wait for him forever." Twenty black SUVs clog the private road into Ridgefield pack territory, trunks crammed with moonstone jewelry, old talismans, and rare herbs. Drake steps out of the tricked-out Hummer, wearing a smug smile and clutching a stack of parchment contracts. "Aria," he calls up, like some medieval knight, "I told you once the Silvermoon Coalition was official and Kenneth's supply lines were stable, I'd bring you to my pack. "The High Council finalized five packs yesterday. I came first thing this morning to show you I mean it." I sit in the upstairs study, watching a video Damien just sent of him playing with our son, then glance through the blinds at the ridiculous scene unfolding below. Drake lifts his face toward the second floor. "I know you're upset, but Kenneth controls the biggest timber in the Eastvale region. I had to mark Isabella. It was politics. You get that. Feelings don't need a mark anyway. I'll treat you better than a Luna." His words made my skin crawl. I pressed the intercom button on the desk. "Clear the drive. Tell security someone's trespassing." What a day! I've just taken my son to the medical center for his one-month checkup. Damien sends me back to Ridgefield pack for a week to rest. Instead, I get this mess on my doorstep.

What if you woke up to discover that you had made love with someone you didn't know? Solenn Alistair Saavedra, a beautiful model and famous actress, was involved in a scandal in which she was seen entering a motel with an unknown guy, which may have had an impact on and led to the demise of her acting career, which she had built for nearly half of her life. Marriage to the guy she had a one-night stand with is the only way she can save her career... but destiny seems to be playing tricks on her because the guy she slept with happens to be the C.E.O of the famous company in their city, Chase Azekiel Cullen, who happens to be a virulent type of person, handsome but cold-hearted and a non-believer in love.

Pendant cinq ans, j'ai été mariée à l'héritier de la famille Romano, la plus puissante organisation criminelle d'Italie. Chaque nuit, il m'a serrée dans ses bras et m'a murmuré : « Donne-moi un héritier, et je lui donnerai tout l'empire Romano. » Mais je ne suis jamais tombée enceinte, et la déception du Parrain envers moi a grandi au fil des mois. Puis j'ai découvert que mon mari avait secrètement remplacé mes comprimés d'acide folique par des pilules contraceptives. J'étais encore sous le choc et folle de colère quand je suis tombée sur une publication de son ex : une photo d'échographie. La légende était douce et suffisante : « Dix semaines déjà. Vincent a dit qu'il avait hâte de rencontrer le bébé. » En voyant l'avalanche de félicitations, j'ai pris ma décision. J'ai trouvé les coordonnées de mon ex-petit ami — celui qui a passé les cinq dernières années à tenter de me reconquérir. Je lui ai envoyé un seul message. « Donne-moi un mois. Ensuite, je pars avec toi. »

After my husband, Brice Decker, gives me a cold shoulder, I end up dying after getting stabbed three times in a row by a robber who tries to rob me. My twin sister, Indigo Humphrey, specifically dresses up as me and gets close to Brice in order to clear her gambling debt. She begins kissing up to Brice like a total simp. No longer does she get jealous over Brice's first love, Amber Warner. Even when Brice and Amber are caught sleeping with each other on our bed, Indigo will deliver them a pack of contraceptives in time. Brice can't take it anymore. He asks Indigo where my jealous side has gone. That's when I laugh. Can't he tell that I'm already dead?

"Holy crap, you are so boring!" He pushed her against the wall, placing his hands on either side of her and staring into her eyes in frustration. He is shirtless and has flat abs touching her body, which is giving her goosebumps. "I don't know how to kiss." She looked at the man, pouting her lips. He scoffed at her boring reply. "Teach me how to kiss." She mumbled, licking her lips, and grabbed his attention. He looked down at her and stroked his hair with his fingers, pulling her close by her waist. "Stand on my toes." He smirked, sending chills down her spine. She climbed over, placing both feet on his toes. "Look into my eyes." He grabbed her chin and make her look into his eyes. She looked into his green-pricing eyes, rolling her fingers on his trimmed beard. "Concentrate on my lips." He synced, licking his lips. Her heart skipped a beat as he pressed her thin lips between his thumbs. And she moaned in response, rolling her eyes at his lips. "Seal your lips on mine and chew it up like an ice cream." He explained the first step, bending his head to seal her lips. "Aaaachuuuuu!!" She sneezed loudly before he sealed her lips. "ANGELINA." He yelled at the top of his lungs. "I’m sorry, hubby." Angelina closed her eyes, covering them with both hands. Angelina is a twenty-year-old college student with lots of goals in life, but she doesn't have parents to give her pocket money and support her financially. But one day, she married a billionaire and then her tragic life turned into a romantic one. Now the question is - how will Angelina satisfy her husband and his desires when she has only experienced struggles in her past life?
