Que Me Mentiste Como Pudiste

Meu pai nos levou ao mercado negro para escolher um par de gêmeos como nossos guarda-costas. Minha mana escolheu primeiro o irmão mais velho, alto e forte, e me deixou com o caçula, o "mudo" que mal respirava. Com pena dele, acabei deixando que ficasse ao meu lado. Ele não falava, então eu o levava para procurar médicos e remédios. Ele tinha uma mania séria de limpeza, então eu mantinha distância. Eu achava que ele só tinha passado por algum trauma para ficar daquele jeito. Até que os inimigos do meu pai sequestraram a mim e à minha mana. E ele me largou para trás, escolhendo sem hesitar morrer bloqueando a bala pela minha mana. Antes de morrer, ele falou pela primeira vez, com os olhos vermelhos, olhando para ela: — Finalmente você pode me ver. E, para mim, ele disse: — Na próxima vida... por favor, não me escolha. Só então percebi que ele não era mudo, nem tinha mania de limpeza. Esse "mudo" e essa "mania" eram só para mim e mais ninguém. Quando abri os olhos de novo, voltei ao dia em que fomos escolher os guarda-costas. Desta vez, fiz exatamente como ele queria.

I fumbled with the lock, my pulse hammering. I shouldn’t be here. I shouldn’t want this. "Alaric," I breathed, but his name barely made it past my lips before his hands were on me—hot, demanding, unstoppable. "Tell me to stop," he murmured against my throat, his fingers sliding beneath my dress. "Tell me you don’t want this." I opened my mouth—to argue, to push him away—but all that came out was a soft, shuddering gasp as he found the one place that betrayed me. His dark chuckle sent a shiver down my spine.

Desde a morte do primeiro amor de Luís Almeida, ele passou a me odiar por dez anos. Tentei agradá-lo de todas as formas, mas ele apenas zombava friamente: — Se você realmente quer me agradar, então morra. Aquilo doeu profundamente. Mas, quando um caminhão avançou na minha direção, foi ele quem se jogou na frente... e morreu sobre uma poça de sangue para me salvar. Antes de fechar os olhos, ele me lançou um olhar profundo e murmurou: — Teria sido melhor... se eu nunca tivesse te conhecido. No funeral, minha sogra estava inconsolável: — Eu devia ter deixado o Luís ficar com a Gabriela Nunes. Nunca deveria ter forçado esse casamento! Meu sogro me culpava com raiva: — O meu finho salvou sua vida três vezes! Um homem como ele... Por que não foi você quem morreu no lugar dele? Todos lamentavam o fato de ele ter se casado comigo. Até eu me arrependia. Fui expulsa do funeral, completamente atordoada. Três anos depois, uma máquina do tempo surgiu do nada — e eu voltei ao passado. Desta vez, escolhi cortar todos os laços com Luís... e realizar o desejo de todos.

Mi hermana gemela menor, Emma Lawson, siempre ha sido la favorita de todos porque está enferma. Esa vez, una tormenta de nieve nos atrapó en la montaña y llegó el helicóptero de rescate con espacio solo para una persona más. Tengo cáncer terminal y estuve más que dispuesta a dejar que Emma ocupara mi lugar. Sin embargo, de repente, ella se agarró la cabeza y lloró porque se sentía mareada. Toda mi familia corrió a su lado y juntos la empujaron hacia la cabina sin siquiera dejar espacio para discusión. Mi esposo, Leon Ziegler, me tocó el brazo fracturado y dijo: —Sarah, tú tendrás que esperar al próximo helicóptero. Mi hija, Daria Ziegler, incluso me lanzó una bola de nieve. —La tía Emma está más enferma que tú. Deja de intentar quitarle el puesto. Solo hasta que el helicóptero despegó vi a Emma pegada a la ventana, sacándome la lengua con aire de suficiencia. Ella había estado mintiendo todo este tiempo. Cuando finalmente me rescataron, los médicos me dijeron que me quedaban tres días de vida. Entonces decidí cambiar todo lo que tenía por un poco del cariño de mi familia.

Cuando mis papás me llamaron para decirme que fuéramos a la casa de mi amigo de la infancia para conocer a la chica de su cita arreglada, él todavía seguía durmiendo profundamente a mi lado. Pensé que era una broma y susurré: —Marcelo, dicen que te han arreglado una cita. Soltó un «Ajá...» soñoliento y me atrajo hacia sus brazos: —Mi Luci, échame una mano después a elegir ropa y con el pelo, ¿va? Al notar que me quedaba tiesa, Marcelo abrió los ojos y soltó una risa burlona: —Oye, ¿qué te pasa? No somos nada más que sexo con complicidad, ¿no me digas que creíste que me iba a casar contigo?

Le di tres años de mi vida, solo para que me trataran como a una simple sustituta… peor que a un perro. Cuando su llamada “luz blanca de luna” regresó, me apartó sin dudarlo. Está bien. Acepté la alianza familiar y me casé con el Alfa más poderoso del Norte. ¿Ahora se arrepiente y me ruega que vuelva? Demasiado tarde. Confabularon contra mí con aconita, queriendo que muriera en un sucio sótano. Pero mi compañero —el verdadero Rey del Norte— arrasó con toda la hacienda solo para salvarme. Intentaron robar mi linaje alfa con magia oscura. Los hice saborear el exilio, convertidos en renegados, despreciados por todos. ¿Y él? Se arrodilló ante mí, suplicando por perdón. Yo me refugié en los brazos de mi compañero y lo vi ser desterrado para siempre. —Ángel —le dije con frialdad—. —Abre los ojos. Yo soy la única Luna del Norte.

Há seis anos eu estava ao lado de Rogério Monteiro quando, certa tarde, falei sem rodeios: — Rogério, vou me casar. Ele estremeceu, e pude ver que retornava apressado de algum devaneio enquanto, um tanto embaraçado, tentava se justificar: — Aurora, você sabe que a empresa está num momento crucial de captação de recursos. Agora não tenho cabeça para... Mantive meu sorriso, ainda que fosse um tanto contido, e respondeu: — Não tem problema. Mas Rogério entendeu tudo errado. Sim, eu pretendia mesmo me casar. Só que não seria com ele.
