Past Tense

Marriage is sacred and must be because of love…but in our family it is all about business and connections. I don’t want to get married and the last time that I let cupid in my heart I was left alone, like a girl who lost her favorite doll. Miss Michin. Ang bansag sa pinakamasungit sa mga apo ni Don Leano—si Frederica Liora Leano, panganay sa pamilya at sa mga magpipinsan, strikta, mahigpit, at prangka kung magsalita. Parang walang pagmamahal sa katawan. Matandang dalaga kung umasta at manamit. Hindi gusto na magpakasal, dahil hanggang ngayon ay may mga nakabaon pa ring tinik sa kan’yang puso mula sa nakaraan. Ngunit…sa isang iglap lahat ng iyon ay nawala. Aksidente. Dahil sa isang aksidenteng halik ay magpapakasal siya at kanino? Sa estrangherong hardinero nila na si Noel. Si Noel, palasagot, matapang, at hindi siya inuurungan. Napunta si Frederica sa sitwasyong iniiwasan niya. Gusto niyang tumakbo at umalis sa buhay na iginuhit na ng kan’yang Lolo. Pero paano kung sa gitna ng pagtakbo niya ay madapa siya sa maiinit na bisig ng kanilang hardinero? Anong mangyayari kung unti-unti na niyang pinapapasok si kupido sa sarado niyang puso? Panibagong sakit? Panibagong tinik? O mas babaon ang tinik ng kan’yang nakaraan? Paano kung sa mga maiinit na bisig ay may madiskubre siyang malamig na katotohanan? Makakatakbo pa kaya ang kan’yang mga paa? O tulad noon ay magiging batang nawalan ng manika?

In his bid for perpetual life, the first Don of the Bryant family annihilates the witch clan and violently takes possession of their most sacred relic. In the moments before her death, the head of the witch clan places a curse on every descendant of the Bryant family. Every descendant will suffer a sudden mutation at the age of 23, where their bodies would be covered in thick, black hair, and fangs would sprout from their mouths, turning them into monsters. They can only lift the curse if they marry a descendant of the witches. Ella Crawford—my sister—and I are the last remaining descendants of the witch clan in the human realm. In my past life, Oliver's lottery selection fell on the attractive Ella. I was aware that Ella lacked the power to lift the curse, so I secretly swapped the lots, and Oliver ended up married to me. In the end, during our wedding night, Ella set herself alight, proclaiming that she had lost her eternal love and didn't want to face life without him. As a result, Mom and Dad drove me out. Oliver, however, took me in and showered me with affection. It wasn't long before I conceived his child, and he successfully survived his 23rd birthday. Yet, barely a day later, Oliver pushed me into the fire pit. I pleaded with tears streaming down my face, "I freed you from the curse and am currently carrying your baby, Oliver, so please don't treat me like this!" Oliver merely responded with a malicious grin as he tossed the torch aside. "If it weren't for your interference, Ella would have lifted the curse for me! I would have been able to spend the rest of my life with her, Cynthia!" In the end, I was completely consumed by the flames. I suddenly open my eyes and find myself returning to the day Oliver chooses his bride by lot. I immediately snap the tampered lot, as I'm eager to find out how Ella will save Oliver without any witch powers in this life.

Before the pack's Winter Solstice festival, I was given a Moonwater Mirror, forged from the waters of the Moon Goddess Spring. But the face staring back at me wasn't my own. It was my face, but younger. The girl I was eight years ago. Her eyes were bright with a joy I hadn't felt in years. When she realized I was from her future, she practically vibrated with excitement. "Our fated mate, Alpha Owen, he confessed today! He's going to plant moonflowers around the lake cabin. He'll stay with me for every full moon. He promised to make me his one and only Luna forever!" Her voice was full of hope for the future. Her joy was a bitter reminder of what I'd lost. I listened quietly, only managing a faint smile. My reaction must have given me away. Her excited chatter died. Her gaze drifted over my shoulder, taking in the cold, empty penthouse behind me. "Wait... where's Owen?" Her smile faltered. "We're happy, right? After eight years?" I didn't say a word. I just slowly, deliberately, turned the Moonwater Mirror toward the terrace. There, my Alpha mate, Owen, had another she-wolf pinned to the railing. Their mouths were fused, their breaths mingling in the cold night air.
