Quote F Scott Fitzgerald For What It's Worth

I never expected to fall for him, my best friend's father. From the moment I saw Marcus stride across the deck, water dripping from his shoulders, I knew this summer would change everything. I was eighteen now, no longer the little girl who used to play in his backyard. But to him, I was still just Lily's friend. Still off-limits. Still invisible. One vacation. One chance. I'd make him see me differently, even if it meant playing a dangerous game. Because some desires are too strong to ignore, and some men are worth every risk.

I struggle with all my might, but Dad restrains me, and Mom breaks my limbs. Then, my sister seals me into the concrete. "Concrete is only brought to life with an actual person sealed inside. It looks so much more defined! It's not like you'll die after being sealed in there for a few days. How can you be so insensible?" The pain of having my limbs broken and my oxygen being cut off leads to me dying within that block of concrete. My body rots and festers inside, but my soul sticks around to watch how my parents dote on their adoptive child. They seem to be happy without me. Finally, I lose all hope in them. But when the liquid from my body seeps out of the concrete, they all lose their minds.

Mula sa pinakatatagong mundo nagmumula ang pag-ibig sa gitna ng digmaan at labanan. Sa gitna ng lahat ng sakit at balakid, mananaig pa kaya ang pag-ibig na nakalaan para sa kanila kung ang buong katotohanan ay hindi dapat mangyari at susundin ng kanilang mga puso na sila ay nagkakaisa at mas piniling burahin ang markang nagbuklod sa kanilang dalawa? Binalot ng sumpa at paghihiganti ang pusong puno ng pagmamahal. Maibabalik pa ba ang pag-ibig kapag nasunog at nadurog na ng nakaraan dahil sa isang malagim na pangyayaring naghiwalay sa kanilang dalawa? _____ "I, Alpha Sortitus Breackorn, of the Breackorn 'Black' Pack, reject you, Clavem Whitestern of the Breackorn Pack, as my mate." "I accept your rejection." Under the white moon in the woods, I run in wolf form. The wolf inside me is whining and uttering All the grievances I have in my heart, I shout, even though the whole surrounding area is covered with light because of the white rays coming from the moon. "I hate everything that happens to me, but I'm not regretting loving him, but he is not destined to love me back. Dearest Luna Goddess, why are you making me suffer like this? Did I do something to trigger your hatred and put me into a curse and be the mistress of my own mate?!"

Caleb Finley tells me he wants to have a child with me during the year when our love is at its strongest. I agree, but that very same night, I fake my death and make my escape, becoming his first love who meets an early death. Six years later, the system seeks me out, on the verge of a breakdown. "Ms. Rockworth, Mr. Finley told me to let you know that your son has just entered the operating room. Do you want to visit him?" "I never gave birth to his child," I answer calmly. The system breaks down even more. "He lost his mind and suddenly turned evil on the night you faked your death. To maintain the balance of the world, we gave him a child who has both your genes. "Now that he has completely gone insane, he told me to tell you that you must meet with him today. If you don't, he'll remove your son's oxygen tube."

He entered her life, and their destinies became entangled in the most tragic of ways: she embodied sunshine, while he exuded darkness. He craved vengeance against his enemies, while she sought to destroy those who had killed her parents. Both had vengeful hearts, yet when it came to each other, they were willing to ruin themselves and the world to protect one another. Having been betrayed before, he vowed never to show vulnerability again to the world. Yet, against all odds, he found himself unable and unwilling to resist her pull. He offered her everything, even the world itself. His obsession with her intensified to the point where he forgot she was a forbidden fruit, entrusted to him to protect until the end of his life. Yet whenever her innocent eyes met another's, jealousy burned within him. He coveted her gaze for himself alone; it was as if she had cast a spell on him, binding him to her indefinitely. Despite the world knowing his weakness, he wore it proudly, even though she was a rose full of thorns in his life, capable of endangering his very existence

I fought with my husband, Alessio, the Don of the Moretti family, over the mistress who'd given him twin sons. The next day, he stormed into my bedroom and put a gun to my head. "Did you take my sons?! You vicious bitch!" While I was still in shock, he ordered his men to lock my eight-year-old daughter, Lucia, in the icehouse for three whole days of "training." He gave me an ultimatum: Lucia would stay there until I brought him his sons. Lucia froze to death in that icehouse. I returned with her death certificate in my hand, my heart a hollow stone in my chest, only to find him moving his mistress and their sons into the home we once shared. He was cheerful, dismissing the whole thing as a misunderstanding. He even had the audacity to tell me to go get Lucia to meet her "new little brothers." I just stared, tears tracking paths down my face, the life inside me extinguished. It wasn't until that thin piece of paper—the death certificate—fluttered to the floor that the color drained from Alessio's face. He finally realized Lucia was gone. Killed by his own blind, cruel pride.
