Our Journey

She was her own person and knew exactly what she wanted. He owned the whole damn thing and thought he could do anything. She had something he wanted but didn't know. He had what she'd always dreamed of, but she had no idea how to achieve it. She lied out of love. He didn't forgive anyone. She hated him from the first time she saw him. He tried to destroy her in every way possible. Bárbara Novaes never imagined that her peaceful life would suddenly turn upside down, when a deathbed request would make her main objective to enter the life of the best-known CEO in the country. Heitor Casanova has never seen a woman as persecuting and insistent as Barbara. But it didn't cross her mind that she didn't want the same thing as everyone else: "him". The bond that united them would force the two to live under the same roof, with a single common goal: to protect what they loved most. Is it possible for mutual anger to turn into love? Would they admit the new feelings that were emerging that they were not able to accept? And would they overcome together all the obstacles that would be created to prevent this relationship from happening??? My first enemies to lovers and CEO together!!! What will it do??? I don't know. Want to find out with me??? Cover: Larah Mattos

Je courais derrière le ballon de Samira comme si ma vie en dépendait. Elle riait aux éclats, cette petite tornade de cinq ans, pendant que le vent emportait son jouet vers l’inconnu. — Naïla, attrape-le ! cria-t-elle, les bras levés. J’avais dix-huit ans, une gamine encore, mais déjà tout pour elle : sa sœur, sa mère, son monde, depuis que le nôtre s’était effondré. Alors je courais, pieds nus, ma robe trop grande flottant autour de moi. Le ballon roula jusqu’aux marches d’un grand hôtel. Il atterrit… juste devant lui. Un homme. Immobile, costume noir, une rose blanche à la main. Son regard perdu dans le vide. Derrière lui, des dizaines d’invités en tenues élégantes. Silencieux. Figés. Je me suis arrêtée, haletante. Tous les regards s’étaient tournés vers moi. Mais lui… ne voyait que moi. Il m’a fixée longuement. Ses yeux se sont allumés, comme si une idée folle venait de naître. Puis il a tendu la main — vers moi, pas le ballon. — Toi, viens ici, dit-il d’une voix glacée. Je suis restée figée, tremblante. Un murmure a traversé la foule : — C’est elle… Il l’a choisie. Derrière, une femme a crié : — Il a perdu la tête ! Épouser une inconnue ? Une gamine ? Mais il s’est avancé. Lentement. Et quand il s’est arrêté, il a dit, calmement, comme une évidence : — Tu es au bon endroit, au bon moment. Tu seras ma femme. Aujourd’hui.

La nuit où mes beaux-parents ont été enlevés, mon mari fêtait la Saint-Valentin avec son premier amour. Je ne l'ai pas empêché. J'ai simplement alerté immédiatement le Bureau d'Intervention des Loups-Garous pour qu'ils interviennent. Dans ma vie précédente, il est allé sauver ses parents parce que je l'avais retenu, manquant ainsi son rendez-vous avec son premier amour. Plus tard, celle-ci a été attaquée dans la montagne par des rogues qui lui ont arraché le cœur. Elle est morte dans une scène d'horreur indescriptible. Après ça, mon mari n'a plus dit un mot. Jusqu'à ce que je tombe enceinte et sois sur le point d'accoucher : c'est à ce moment-là qu'il m'a abandonnée dans les montagnes sauvages. « Lila, si ce n'était pas à cause de toi, Chloé ne serait pas morte ! » « Qu'est-ce qui te donne le droit de vivre en paix ? Je veux te voir souffrir autant qu'elle a souffert ! » Dévorée par la meute, j'ai péri, emportant avec moi l'enfant que je portais. Et quand j'ai à nouveaux ouvert les yeux, j'étais revenue à cette même journée où mes beaux-parents avaient été enlevés. Cette fois, il n'a pas participé au sauvetage. Il a passé la soirée avec son premier amour, comme il l'avait toujours souhaité... Mais à l'aube, ses cheveux ont blanchi d'un coup.
