Ojos Que No Ven Corazón Que No Siente

Un par de días antes del Año Nuevo, Diego —mi novio— decidió irse a la playa con su asistente. Yo no dije nada. No lloré, no grité, no hice escándalo. Incluso lo ayudé a empacar, con todo el cariño del mundo. ¿Y él qué hizo? Se burló. Me dijo que, ahora que estaba embarazada, por fin había aprendido a comportarme. Apenas se fue, me fui directo a abortar. En mi vida pasada, había intentado retenerlo con ese bebé. Y lo había logrado: él no se había marchado. Al final, su asistente había ido sola a la playa, y ahí la habían matado de una forma brutal. Diego siempre fingía que nada le afectaba. Siempre con esa cara tranquila, como si todo le diera igual. Pero, cuando estaba a punto de dar a luz, fue él quien me abrió el vientre con sus propias manos. Apretó con fuerza… hasta que asesinó a mi hijo. Y fue en ese momento cuando lo entendí todo: siempre me había despreciado, y desde la muerte de aquella mujer… me odiaba sin medida. Por eso, ahora, que había vuelto a nacer, pensaba dejarlo sin nada.

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.

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?

—Ay papi, ya no sigas, me voy a venir… En el auditorio, la multitud era un caos absoluto. Aproveché el tumulto para empujar a propósito a la chica que tenía delante de mí. Traía una faldita de colegiala bastante sexy. Sin pensarlo dos veces, se la levanté para repegarme contra sus nalgotas. Lo que me mataba era que su ropa interior era delgadísima. Sentir ese trasero tan rico y jugoso hizo que perdiera la razón. Y lo más increíble de todo fue que ella parecía estar disfrutando el repegón.

Me casei com Sérgio, o filho mais velho da família Lima, um renomado obstetra. Minha melhor amiga, Vanessa, se casou com Valentino, o filho mais novo, que era presidente de uma grande farmacêutica. No meu aniversário, a amada do meu marido me mandou um gato morto, me causando um choque que desencadeou um parto prematuro. Vanessa me levou ao hospital, onde sofri uma embolia amniótica. Nenhum médico sabia o que fazer, e quando pedi ajuda ao Sérgio, ele respondeu com desprezo: — Só porque faltei no seu aniversário, já vem se fazer de vítima e inventar mentira? O cachorro da Alícia vai parir, preciso estar presente e não tenho tempo para drama! Vanessa me operou e salvou minha vida, mas meu filho foi para a UTI. Ela ligou para Valentino pedindo um remédio especial, e ele respondeu: — O cachorro da Alícia tá mal depois do parto, estou aqui fazendo caldo para ele. Sério, vocês duas são iguais e sempre arrumaram confusão. Acham que só existo para lidar com crise de ciúmes. No fim, meu filho morreu. E com ele, toda a minha esperança. — Vanessa, decidi que quero me divorciar. — Se você vai terminar, eu também vou. Homem que não presta não merece esposa! Quando finalmente falamos do divórcio para Sérgio e Valentino, eles entraram em pânico.

J'étais enceinte de quatre mois de l'héritier de l'Alpha lorsque ma meilleure amie, Adrienne, m'a percutée. Elle a prétendu qu'il s'agissait d'un « accident ». J'ai perdu le bébé. Mon frère, Guillaume, a tenté de la dénoncer aux anciens de la meute. Mais il a été accusé à tort de trahison, dépouillé de son titre de Bêta et jeté dans un cachot de la meute. Je me suis précipitée vers mon compagnon, l'Alpha Bernard, pour lui demander de l'aide. Il m'a serrée dans ses bras et m'a juré qu'il sauverait Guillaume. Le lendemain, j'ai trouvé Guillaume dans le cachot, enchaîné avec des chaînes en argent, à peine vivant. Le cœur brisé, je suis retournée voir Bernard pour trouver un moyen de prouver l'innocence de Guillaume. C'est alors que je l'ai entendu parler à son bras droit. « Alpha, si Luna découvre que vous les avez laissés piéger Guillaume... elle vous détestera. » La voix de Bernard était empreinte d'épuisement et de douleur refoulée. « Je sais comment elle est. C'était le seul moyen de lui faire pardonner Adrienne lors de la Cérémonie de la Lune de Sang. Adrienne m'a sauvé la vie. Je ne laisserai pas cela la détruire. » Il a marqué une pause, la voix complètement froide. « Quant à Sandrine... Je me rattraperai auprès d'elle. Elle ne saura jamais la vérité, jamais. Pour l'instant, elle doit simplement... obéir. » Le compagnon à qui j'avais confié ma vie... Il a jeté ma famille aux loups, tout cela pour protéger la femme qui avait tué notre enfant. Mon cœur s'est brisé. Tremblant d'une rage que je n'avais jamais connue, j'ai appelé la personne à qui je n'avais pas parlé depuis sept ans, mon père, Alpha Claude. « Père, j'accepte l'alliance stratégique, le mariage que tu souhaitais. Mais j'ai une condition. J'ai besoin de ton aide... pour réduire la Meute du Bois Noir en cendres. »

Cold and proud to all, Beamon Slade, Northarch's strongest Alpha, reserves his gentleness solely for me. Everyone knows that I'm his Luna. But today, his first love is infected with deadly wolfsbane and on the brink of death. He hands me a herbal pill that can seal memories and temporarily remove the mate mark. "Eiro won't last another three days, Swan. "Could you give me three days to fulfill her dream of becoming a Luna through a symbolic marking ceremony? I won't hurt you. This pill temporarily severs the bond and makes you forget me. "When the ceremony ends three days later, take the antidote and you'll remember everything. We'll get back together." Looking at his calm, gentle expression, I silently swallow the pill without hesitation. He has no idea, but I crafted the pill with my own hands. There's no such thing as an antidote. Three days from now, I'll completely forget him. All our embraces, vows, marks, and his past gentleness will vanish with the wind.

Cinco años de amor ciego y el novio la dejó plantada en el altar para correr detrás de la amiga suicida de la infancia. Ese día, Lía Esquivel por fin entendió que jamás iba a calentar el corazón helado de Darío Serrano. Cortó por lo sano, se fue y decidió empezar de cero. Hasta que, tras una borrachera, amaneció en la cama del hombre más intocable: Lorenzo Altamirano, peor enemigo de su hermano… y encima había sido ella quien se le lanzó primero. Intentó huir de puntitas, pero una mano grande la agarró del tobillo y la arrastró de vuelta. —Lía, ¿me usaste, y ahora quieres escapar? Con lo que me besaste anoche, ¿no piensas hacerte responsable? *** Para todos, Lorenzo era un dios frío y abstinente. Nadie sabía que llevaba años obsesionado con la hermanita de su archirrival. Por ella, Lorenzo dejaba de fingir, se volvía casi loco, compraba un pueblo entero para regalárselo y la acorralaba con la bata abierta, abdominales a la vista y la voz ronca al oído: —Lía, ¿quieres tocar? Se siente muy bien. —¿No que muy santo y muy abstinente? —¿Abstinente? Con los demás. Contigo lo único que tengo son ganas.

Eu deliberadamente fazia algo diante do ursinho de pelúcia na cama. Porque eu sabia que dentro dos olhos do ursinho, um homem me observava. Ele havia invadido minha casa, deitado na cama onde eu dormia e até deixado seus vestígios nas roupas que eu trocava. Eu fingi estar assustada, me escondendo num canto e tremendo. Ele não sabia. Eu realmente o esperava há muito, muito tempo.

My four-year-old son dies after someone crashes into him with a motorcycle. The culprit is a college freshman who's just been admitted. I'm devastated, but my husband generously forgives her. "We have to give her a chance since she's such an outstanding student. She's still young—we can't ruin her future." Ha. She has plenty of opportunities and a bright future ahead of her. What about my son? He was only four. Later, I rip his letter of forgiveness to pieces before his face. He wants me to forgive the young lady? No way in hell!
