Di atas bus, aku dihimpit ke arah jendela oleh seorang pria hidung belang. Sementara itu, sepasang tangan yang besar di belakangku, meraba-raba tubuhku dengan lancang. Aku terkulai lemas dalam dekapannya. Aku berusaha menahan erangan karena malu, sambil merapatkan kedua kaki dan mencoba mengabaikan sensasi basah di antara pangkal pahaku. Ada dua alasan mengapa aku berusaha keras untuk bertahan. Pertama, tidak ada yang tahu jika aku sebenarnya menderita kecanduan seks. Sentuhan sekecil apa pun bisa seketika menjatuhkanku ke dalam jurang gairah yang dalam. Kedua ... Orang di belakangku yang sedang meraba-raba diriku dengan semena-mena itu adalah guru matematikaku sendiri. Aku menundukkan kepala, berusaha sekuat tenaga untuk menopang kedua kakiku yang sudah kehilangan kekuatannya. Saat aku mulai kembali tersadar, aku mendapati tangan guruku sudah menyelinap ke celah di antara kedua kakiku, meraba ke arah tempat yang sudah basah dan berantakan itu ….

Setelah adikku pergi ke luar negeri, aku menggantikan dia menikah dengan Ketua Geng mafia. Selama lima tahun pernikahan, kami adalah dua orang yang paling saling membenci. Dia membenciku karena mengira akulah yang memaksa adik pergi, lalu memakai cara licik untuk menjadi istrinya. Aku membencinya karena sejak awal sampai akhir dia selalu menganggapku hanya sebagai pengganti, bahkan tidak pernah mengumumkan identitasku ke publik. Justru karena tidak diakui, orang tuaku yang gengsi menanggung segala hinaan, dan sejak itu mereka pun membenciku sampai ke tulang. Di akhir kehidupan sebelumnya, dia dan kedua orang tuaku demi merayakan Natal untuk adikku, melupakan diriku di pegunungan bersalju. Di tengah kedinginan yang membeku, aku dan anakku yang belum sempat dilahirkan meninggal bersama. Sementara itu, adikku menikmati seluruh limpahan kasih sayang, menjalani Natal paling bahagia dalam hidupnya. Saat membuka mata kembali, aku kembali ke hari pertama adikku pulang ke tanah air. Di kehidupan ini, aku tidak akan lagi memohon cinta dari Adriano maupun dari kedua orang tuaku.

"I want you to stop being a model so that we can start planning for pregnancy. I want to have a child soon because my mother is pressuring me," Alexander requested of his wife, Cesilia. "I don't want to. My body will change, and I won't be suitable for modeling anymore. If you're in a hurry, I can find you a new wife, how about that?" Cesilia's eyebrows raised. "If you don't want to, persuade your mother or divorce me. Because I'm not ready to have a child in the near future." "It's up to you." Frustrated by Cesilia's unchanging response for six years, Alexander also became disgusted. "Fine, I'll make sure that by next week you have a wife to carry your child, my love!" Cesilia exclaimed before Alexander disappeared from her sight.

La pluie tambourinait contre les vitres de la salle de classe vide. Élise resta immobile devant le tableau, les yeux fixés sur la porte que Monsieur Deveraux venait de franchir. Son cœur battait encore la chamade, résonnant du compliment qu'il venait de lui faire sur sa dernière dissertation. "Vous avez un talent rare, Élise. Une sensibilité qui transcende les mots." Ces paroles tournaient en boucle dans son esprit. Elle avait dix-huit ans et se croyait préparée à tout. Mais pas à ça. Pas à ce regard qu'il avait posé sur elle, différent de celui qu'il réservait aux autres élèves. Un regard qui la voyait vraiment, au-delà de l'étudiante modèle qu'elle s'efforçait d'être. Elle ignorait encore que ce professeur d'histoire-géographie, respecté de tous, cachait un secret qui allait bouleverser sa vie : il était le père adoptif de Lucas, son meilleur ami d'enfance. Celui qu'elle n'avait pas revu depuis cinq ans, depuis que sa famille avait déménagé mystérieusement. Et elle ignorait surtout que dans quelques jours, lors d'un dîner de famille organisé par sa mère, veuve depuis deux ans et nouvellement amoureuse, elle allait découvrir que son nouveau beau-père n'était autre que... Monsieur Deveraux. L'amour peut-il vraiment conquérir tous les obstacles, même les plus moralement inacceptables ? Certaines histoires ne devraient jamais commencer. Celle-ci était l'une d'entre elles. Et pourtant...

On the day of my marking ceremony, I don't receive flowers or a mate's embrace. Instead, I receive news that my boyfriend, Liam Hagerty, was caught in a snowstorm and his body was never found. I lose the man I love, and the pup in my belly loses its father. The grief nearly destroys me, but everyone keeps saying, "Aurora, stay strong—at least for the pup." On the day of the funeral, Liam's twin brother, Jasper Hagerty, returns from the border patrol with his mate. Every time I see Jasper's face—the exact same face as Liam's—my heart aches all over again. Then one night, I accidentally overhear a conversation between my mother-in-law—the old Luna—and Jasper. "Liam, you have to go through with this. Your brother died saving you, and your sister-in-law's been through so much. Let her give birth and have something to rely on. Then, you can host your marking ceremony with Aurora." Silence follows. Then "Jasper" speaks. "But what about Aurora? She's carrying my pup..." His mother sighs. "Aurora is strong and considerate. She'll understand." Jasper says in resignation, "Alright, Mom. I'll do as you say." That's when I realize Liam never died. The man I thought was my brother-in-law, Jasper, is just Liam putting on an act. Heartbroken beyond words, I call my older brother, Axel Maddox. "Axel, I want to come home. Liam is already dead, so there's no reason for me to stay here anymore."

I break up with Ansel Wright when his enemies chase him for debt payment, and I start dating a rich man. Ansel says he loves me and begs me not to break up. He weeps and continues that he cannot live without me; I am in another man's arms as I pour whiskey on him and say scornfully, "Ansel, stop pestering me! I never want to hide with you and live without money again!" He leaves with a despondent look on his face. Six years later, he returns to Wall Street as a finance giant that everyone in New York takes notice of. The moment he gets back to the country, he brings his fiancée to show off to me, but he cannot find me, no matter how hard he tries, because I die the day he returns to the country.

My husband died in a fire trying to save me, leaving behind a mountain of debt and a newborn child. I worked hard to pay off the debt while raising the child, only to unintentionally discover that my husband hadn’t died at all. Instead, he was sleeping with my cousin. “Honey, you’re so clever. You transferred all the company funds and faked your death, leaving that stupid wife of yours to shoulder all the debt. “She’s so clueless that she doesn’t even realize the son she’s raising isn’t hers, that I swapped him out. Once she’s done paying off the debts, the three of us can live a great life together.” I silently sneered, pretending I knew nothing, and continued to raise the child. Twenty years later, my son returned home after studying abroad. The company went public in New York. On the day of the IPO, my cousin appeared arm in arm with my husband, holding a paternity test. “Claire, your husband never died. We’ve been together all these years. Alex is my son. Now that you’ve been his mother for so long, isn’t it time to return him to me?” My husband also presented a divorce agreement. “I built this company from scratch. It’s premarital property. Sign the divorce papers, walk away with nothing, and you can leave now.” I smiled and told him, “I’ve prepared a special gift for you too. I wonder if you’ll like it."

On the day of the mating ceremony, I'm supposed to be marked by William Ernst and become the Luna of the Shadow pack. However, Annie Denver, my younger twin sister, suddenly comes back from abroad. Dad, Mom, and William end up abandoning me, choosing to pick her up from the airport. While Annie posts a family photo on Facebook, flaunting how everyone in the family loves her, my family cuts me off whenever I try to contact them through mind-link. They end up closing the mind-link. After calling countless times, William finally accepts my call and asks me to stop rushing him. He tells me that today's mating ceremony is canceled and will be rescheduled on another date. My dearest parents, brother, and the man I love the most all turn me into the laughingstock of the entire pack—and the most ridiculous bride of all. Despite being laughed at, I didn't cry or make a scene. After taking care of everything, I write a number in my journal—the 99th time. This is the 99th time they have disappointed me. From this moment on, I won't beg for their love anymore. I fill out an application for Arcetic expedition, ready to leave them. They all think that my silence and constant compromises with Annie mean I've matured. They fail to realize that I'm disappointed to the core. I am leaving for good.
