No Soy Tu Esposa

Raíssa Freitas estava à beira de um colapso. O homem com quem ela havia passado a noite era seu professor universitário e, o mais desesperador de tudo, era que ela estava grávida. Tremendo, ela colocou o exame de gravidez à sua frente, e Alexandre Teixeira lhe deu duas opções: abortar ou se casar. Assim, Raíssa acabou se casando com seu professor universitário, sem mais nem menos. Após o casamento, eles passaram a dormir em quartos separados. Certa noite, o professor Alexandre apareceu à porta do quarto dela com um travesseiro. — O aquecedor do meu quarto quebrou, vou dormir no seu quarto esta noite. Raíssa, confusa, abriu a porta. Na noite seguinte, o professor Alexandre apareceu novamente. — O aquecedor ainda não foi consertado, vou dormir aqui mais uma noite. No final, o professor Alexandre acabou ficando no quarto dela. Ele dizia que estava economizando na conta de aquecimento para cuidar do filho. ... A Escola de Medicina da Ilha do Sol era uma das melhores do país, e o professor Alexandre era amplamente conhecido nela, sendo o mais jovem professor da faculdade de medicina. Ele sempre usava uma aliança de casamento no dedo anular, mas nunca era visto com nenhuma mulher. Mais tarde, um estudante, incapaz de conter a curiosidade, perguntou durante a aula: — Professor Alexandre, ouço dizer que o senhor já é casado. Quando vai apresentar sua esposa para a gente? Para surpresa de todos, o professor Alexandre apontou: — Raíssa. Uma médica profissional se levantou reflexamente do grupo de alunos e disse: — Presente. Sob o olhar de todos os estudantes, o professor Alexandre sorriu gentilmente: — Quero apresentar a todos. Esta é minha esposa Raíssa. Ela é uma excelente cirurgiã cardíaca.

El día más feliz de cualquier mujer suele ser el día de su boda, ¿verdad? Pero este no fue el caso de Pamela Grayson. Sollozó antes, durante y después de la ceremonia.

Después de todo, su hermana había seducido a su prometido y estaba embarazada de su hijo. Su dote se iba a utilizar para costear una elaborada boda para su hermana y su supuesto prometido. Pero la parte más trágica de la historia de Pamela fue que el hombre con el que se casó resultó ser aún más despiadado y cruel con ella que su propia familia cuando salió del coma.

Ahora, ella es una princesa, una heredera y la CEO de la corporación más grande del continente: ¿Qué les depara el futuro a ambos y a sus cuatrillizos que Louis Hayden creía que habían sido eliminados?

Después de dos años de matrimonio, Camila Rivas descubrió al intentar obtener nuevamente su certificado de matrimonio que el preciado papel que había guardado con tanto cariño era falso... Quiso confrontar a su esposo Alejandro Jiménez, pero escuchó algo que la dejó sin palabras: el hombre que la había cuidado con tanto amor durante seis años, ya estaba casado desde hacía cinco años con su profesora, que era seis años mayor que él. No solo había sido su escudo humano, sino que además, él le había asignado la culpa de no poder tener hijos, mientras adoptaba a sus hijos. Con el estómago revuelto, Camila llamó a su abogado encargado de heredar la fortuna. —Soltera, sin hijos, toda la herencia es mía. Camila decidió alejarse de la familia Jiménez, y Alejandro, confiado en que ella no tenía a dónde ir, esperaba tranquilo que regresara a rogarle. Sin embargo, un día, Camila apareció en los titulares de todos los medios del país, en una noticia sobre un matrimonio arreglado. Ahora, ella estaba acompañada de un hombre en la cima del poder, compartiendo el escenario bajo los reflectores, recibiendo la admiración y los mejores deseos de todo el mundo...

Con nueve meses de embarazo, un exempleado, que guardaba un profundo rencor tras haber sido despedido para darle ese puesto a mi esposo, me llevó a la fuerza a la azotea del edificio y me asestó decenas de puñaladas. Mi marido, Víctor Escobar, capitán de un escuadrón de rescate, prefirió movilizar a todo su personal para impedir que Raquel Herrera, su exnovia, sumida en una depresión, le prendiera fuego a su departamento. No le supliqué que viniera a rescatarme. En mi vida anterior, precisamente porque lo había llamado suplicándole ayuda, él había dejado desprotegida a Raquel y había ido corriendo a salvarme. Mi bebé y yo logramos sobrevivir, pero ella, después de prenderle fuego a su departamento, murió consumida por el incendio. En apariencia, Víctor no me había guardado ningún rencor. Incluso llegó a reservarme una suite de maternidad privada. Sin embargo, el mismo día que di a luz, me amarró ¡y nos acuchilló sin piedad, a mí y a mi bebé recién nacido! —¡Ese día tú y ese tipo se pusieron de acuerdo para engañarme, ¿no es así?! ¡Tus «heriditas» no eran nada graves! ¡Ni de chiste te ibas a morir! —exclamó, fuera de sí—. ¡Pues, si tanto te encanta que te apuñalen, entonces, te daré el gusto! Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, había regresado al día en que me habían tomado como rehén. Pero, esta vez, tomé una decisión: lo dejaría correr para salvar a su Raquel.

Dans la meute des Terres Boréales, une loi immuable interdisait à un Alpha de s'unir à une humaine. Pourtant, Kévin Volf a secrètement scellé le lien conjugal avec moi. Pour me garder à ses côtés, il a défié le Conseil des Sages, subi quatre-vingt-dix-neuf coups de fouet et s'est agenouillé trois jours entiers devant l'autel. Alors que le sang imbibait sa chemise, il me souriait encore : « Alice, n'aie pas peur. Toi, et rien que toi. » Plus tard, les Sages obstinés ont enfin cédé, acceptant notre fuite amoureuse. À une condition : qu'il donne à la meute un héritier de sang pur. Depuis ce jour, une phrase a rythmé nos vies : « Attends un peu. » La première fois, il m'a demandé d'attendre qu'il mette une louve enceinte. Trente-trois nuits avec Joséphine, jusqu'à ce qu'elle porte son enfant. La seconde fois, il a répété cette phrase, car la portée était une femelle, le clan exigeait un héritier mâle. Quatre-vingt-dix-neuf nouvelles nuits avec Joséphine, jusqu'à la grossesse suivante. Au moment où je croyais toucher au but, leur fille, fraîchement baptisée, a ingéré par erreur de l'aconit. Tous m'ont accusée. Jetée dans une chambre froide à moins vingt degrés, j'ai vu mon Alpha bien-aimé, les yeux écarlates et le regard glaçant, me dire : « Je t'avais pourtant dit de patienter… Tu sais ce que l'aconit représente pour nous. Pourquoi as-tu voulu faire du mal à mon enfant ? » Son enfant ? Vraiment ? J'ai senti mon cœur se déchirer. Mes poings se sont serrés, les ongles entaillant cruellement mes paumes. Lorsque la porte du congélateur s'est rouverte, j'ai desserré mes mains ensanglantées et une décision était née : « L'attente, c'est terminé ! »

I chase my six-year-old daughter out of the house on a cold winter day. I cut her new clothes to pieces and dirty her dainty little face with mud. Then, I give her all my savings. She looks at me tearfully and reaches out for me, wanting me to hold her. However, I harden my heart and push her away, saying, "Leave! Go to Bowen Group and look for their CEO, Logan Bowen. Show him my death certificate and your DNA test—he'll take you in." She sobs while looking at me. "Don't you want me anymore, Mommy? Let's go look for Daddy together." After a brief silence, I say, "I can't go with you. I lied to him back then to have you." Yes, I'm a liar. I orchestrated everything from meeting Logan, dating him, to ultimately leaving him with his child in my womb. Even the death certificate I've given my daughter is fake. From beginning to end, I've lied to him about everything except our daughter.

Fedora Smith was done with love. Finished. Buried. Betrayal had ripped out her heart and torched it—her boyfriend of four years and her best friend of twenty-five caught pants down on the very anniversary sheets she gifted him. And their excuses? “You’re not attractive anymore.” “You took too long to marry him.” Fine. If love was a game, she was rewriting the rules. Now, she runs The Bridal Fix, an elite agency providing fake marriages for a steep price—rent-a-bride services for men needing to fool their families, secure an inheritance, or stage the perfect breakup. Fifteen weddings, fifteen divorces—no strings, no mess. Just business. Until Judah Carlstone. He hires her like the rest—one contract, one wedding, one payday. But Judah asks too many questions. Looks at her too long. And when he smirks and says— "Tell me, Fedora… how does it feel to say ‘I do’ and not mean it?" For the first time in years, she has no answer. Because this was never supposed to feel real.

Two years after we marry, my husband moves his sister and her family into our marital home. The four of them settle down and refuse to leave. So, I quit both my jobs. I laze around at home all day and splurge on various things. I have so many parcels delivered that they pile up by the door. Occasionally, I ask my husband and his sister for allowance. When the management office sends someone to chase for our maintenance fee, my husband breaks down so loudly that everyone in the building can hear him. He asks me whether I've lost my mind—who will support the family if I don't work? How will we survive without money? Am I going to allow our family to starve? So, it turns out he does know that we'll starve without anyone generating income. Why does he and his sister stay at home and plot to take away all my money, then?

I was reborn back to 1975, when the child in my womb was three months old. I did not tell anyone and quietly had an abortion. However, I still wrapped cotton around my belly every day, pretending the baby was still there. In my past life, my husband Declan Huxley's childhood sweetheart Jane Patton and I gave birth on the same day. She had a healthy, ordinary baby boy. But my child looked nothing like us—he was mixed-race, with features of the Valorian people. Declan and I were both locals, so there was no way our son could look like this. Enraged, Declan scolded me in front of everyone, accusing me of cheating on him and having a disgraceful affair with a Valorian. No matter how many times I explained, no one believed me, and I became the shameful woman everyone pointed at. Worse still, Declan reported me and handed in some foreign letters he found at home, which led to me being taken by federal agents and sentenced as a spy. I spent ten years in prison, and when I finally walked out, I was nothing but skin and bones. Meanwhile, Declan had climbed the ranks for his so-called loyalty to the country. He held Jane's hand and brought along my real son, Seth Huxley, then threw 500 dollars at me like it was charity. He said, "Back then, Jane was accidentally deceived by someone else and gave birth to that brat. Unlike you, she has a gentle nature and couldn't endure hardship, so I had no choice but to switch your children. "This money is payment for your ten years and your reputation. You have a criminal record, and I already filed for divorce long ago to be with Jane. Seth also thinks you're not worthy of me, so you better take care of yourself." Seth also looked at me with disgust. "Mommy Jane treats me very well, and she's not like you; she's never been to prison. I don't want a mother like you!" When I learned the truth, the fury was so overwhelming that I had a stroke and died in despair. In this new life, I want to see how they plan to scheme against me when the child is already gone.

Despite a decade of marriage, Simon never once shared my bed, claiming that he had pledged himself to ascetic practices and that it was beneath him. I thought that he suffered from some shameful ailment and guarded his secret like a devoted fool, until my birthday, when I came home to find him entangled with a brothel worker before the floor-length mirror. When I lunged forward in rage, he drove a shard of that broken mirror straight through my heart. When I awoke, I was gripping my phone, its screen illuminating a message Simon had just sent: [I’ll still give you a lavish wedding, but the marriage certificate? That belongs to her.]
