Nia Thomas

Para kay Josephine Thomas, ang arranged marriage niya kay Nicholas Herrera ay hindi isang sakripisyo kundi isang katuparan ng matagal na niyang pangarap. Mahal niya ito mula pa noon pa man. Kahit alam niyang isa lang siyang ampon at ginamit ng pamilya niya para sa negosyo, hindi siya nagreklamo. Kahit malamig si Nicholas at hindi siya minahal pabalik, tiniis niya ang sakit. Ngunit ang akala niyang magiging daan para mahalin siya ng asawa ay siya ring sumira sa kanya. Sa araw na balak niyang sabihin kay Nicholas na buntis siya, nakita niya ito sa ospital, kasama ang babaeng totoong minamahal nito. At sa harap ng mga mata niya, narinig niya ang pinaka-masakit na salita. “Magpapakasal na kami, Josephine. Magpa-file na ako ng divorce.” Gumuho ang mundo niya, pero hindi siya sumuko. Kahit delikado para sa puso niya, pinili niyang ituloy ang pagbubuntis. Hanggang sa isang araw, nawala siya sa buhay ni Nicholas… at hindi na muling lumingon. Apat na taon ang lumipas, at muling nagkrus ang mga landas nila. Sa pagkakataong ito, si Nicholas na ang humahabol. Puno ng pagsisisi, gustong bumawi. Pero may puwang pa ba siya sa puso ni Josephine? O huli na ang lahat para sa kanilang dalawa?

"Hey, new girl! Stop hovering like a shadow and grab a seat. You look like you haven’t eaten in days," the head chef called out, her voice sharp but oddly welcoming. I froze. I knew her. She was the type who ignored me—neither cruel nor kind, just indifferent. It was better than the others who thrived on my misery. But this… this unexpected invitation caught me off guard. “Thomas, move over!” she snapped. “The girl looks like she’s been dragged through hell. Let her sit.” I cautiously stepped forward, unsure of this newfound warmth. “She doesn’t talk much, huh? Let me tell you something, sweetheart,” Henry chimed in, his voice dripping with mockery. “There’s no room for shy here. Speak up or get swallowed whole. Now, what’s your name?” “Aurora,” I said smoothly, burying the girl I used to be beneath the lie. --- Amelia was the pack’s favorite target—a punching bag for their frustrations and a scapegoat for their failures. But the cruelest betrayal came on her eighteenth birthday when the Alpha—her mate—rejected her in front of the pack. Mocked, humiliated, and abandoned, Amelia reached her breaking point. She vanished without a trace. Years later, she’s back, but not as the broken girl they remember. She’s Aurora now—sharp, fearless, and burning with a thirst for vengeance. She’s trained, planned, and uncovered the dark truths that fueled their hatred. And now, she’s ready to make them pay.

Ma meilleure amie et moi avons épousé les héritiers d'une grande famille fortunée. J'ai dit « oui » à l'aîné, Alexandre, un brillant chirurgien, tandis qu'elle s'est unie au cadet, Thomas, un PDG aussi brillant que glacial. Le jour de notre mariage, Alexandre s'est volatilisé pour aider son ex à retrouver son chien perdu. Un comble ! Ma grand-mère, sous le choc, a fait une crise cardiaque. J'ai supplié Alexandre de revenir pour la sauver. « Tu as perdu la tête, Emma ? » m'a-t-il lancé, furieux. « Tu serais prête à maudire ta seule famille pour me faire revenir ? Chloé est désespérée, son chien a disparu. On peut toujours reporter la cérémonie. » Ce jour-là, elle a retrouvé son stupide animal, mais moi, j'ai perdu ma grand-mère à jamais. Je me suis effondrée en larmes. À mon réveil, j'ai regardé Juliette droit dans les yeux : « Je vais demander le divorce. Et toi ? » Elle m'a serrée contre elle, les joues ruisselantes : « Moi aussi, c'est fini. » Quand les frères Lefèvre ont reçu nos demandes de divorce, ils ont pleuré comme des enfants...

What will you do if you suddenly find out that you are betrothed with the king of the alpha gang when you are just a mere human? And it was prophesied long ago when you were not even born....

The child - half human, half wolf will be the king of kings of all era. The two alpha kings - Alexander and Thomas - both want to behold and possess the power whom no one ever had.

And what about Ruth and Adam who are madly in love with one another in the mortal human world? " Leave me alone! " Ruth screamed with rage and fury. " Why have you taken me here? " Her big beautiful eyes shone with fear when she saw the dark silhouette behind her came to light infront of her. " You...." Looking at the dark shadow, she froze at her spot. " Yes,me. And here you are, my would be bride who will bear my child in her womb. " Crazy laughter broke out the whole castle. " No! Let go of me! Adam! " Ruth screamed when she saw the dark shadow coming directly towards her slow by slow. She tried to get up but could not as she was tied up with the pillar. " Adam! " Her voice went meek as she was fainting gradually, looking at the shadow coming close to her little by little....

Eu, Carla Medeiros, renasci no momento em que meu tio sofria os efeitos de um veneno do amor. Nesta vida, não me tornei seu antídoto, em vez disso, liguei para o grande amor da vida dele.

Sabendo que ele havia sido envenenado, ignorei seu pedido para que eu ligasse para o seu grande amor e me tornei seu antídoto. Um mês depois, engravidei inesperadamente. Meu tio foi forçado a se casar comigo. No entanto, no dia do nosso casamento, seu grande amor, que havia viajado para o exterior para espairecer, foi sequestrada e assassinada. Antes de morrer, ela ligou para ele cento e noventa e nove vezes pedindo socorro. Mas meu tio, ocupado com a cerimônia, não atendeu a nenhuma das chamadas. Depois, ele ficou olhando para aquelas cento e noventa e nove chamadas perdidas, sem dizer uma palavra. No entanto, no dia em que dei à luz, ele me trancou no porão. Eu implorei para que me levasse ao hospital, mas ele apenas sorriu com maldade, observando-me morrer durante o parto, incapaz de dar à luz. Antes de morrer, a única coisa que o ouvi dizer foi: — Se não fosse por você ter engravidado, como eu teria sido forçado a me casar? E como eu não teria atendido às chamadas de socorro da Sófia? Você merece morrer... Quando abri os olhos novamente, eu voltei no dia em que meu tio foi envenenado.

Renascida, ao reabrir os olhos para esta nova vida, compreendi meu único caminho: precisava me manter o mais longe possível de Lorenzo Alencar. Quando ele caiu de paraquedas na empresa onde eu trabalhava, pedi demissão sem pensar duas vezes. Quando comprou um apartamento no meu condomínio, fiz as malas e me mudei para bem longe. Quando decidiu assumir os negócios da família e permanecer em Santa Esperança, tratei logo de pedir transferência para o exterior. Na vida passada, usei a gravidez como pretexto para obrigar ele a se casar comigo. Mas, no dia da cerimônia, o grande amor da vida dele voltou. E ao ver ele subir ao altar comigo, ela se lançou do terraço de um hotel. Lorenzo fingiu que nada havia acontecido, sorriu e repetiu os votos ao meu lado. No aniversário de casamento, levou a mim e à nossa filha para um salto de bungee jump. E então… cortou a corda. Nós duas fomos despedaçadas na queda. Diante do meu corpo, ele riu com crueldade: — Se não fosse por você, Patrícia jamais teria se matado. Agora, desça ao inferno, pague a sua dívida com ela! Quando abri os olhos novamente, já estava de volta àquela noite — a noite em que usei a minha filha como arma para forçar nosso casamento.
