After my rebirth, I vow to stop clinging to my fated mate—the man I grew up with—Damon Hale. When he gathers all the healers in the pack for a party in Alohara, I book a flight to Harborwatch. When he complains that my scent makes him and his wolf sick, I move out and hire a deep-cleaning service for 500 dollars. When he orders me to stay away from his pack, I quit my job as Alpha's private healer and take up freelance work in Coghaven to support myself. Finally, he says my existence might mislead his precious stepsister into thinking he still cares for me. So, I nod and accept Coghaven Alpha's hand in marriage, along with the keys to an 18-million-dollar villa as my wedding gift. Not until the very last moment of my previous life did I realize… he had always loved his stepsister. In this life, I’ll let you be together—and from now on, I’ll live for myself alone.

My younger sister and I were born twins, yet from the very beginning, our parents had zero fondness for me. My sister was the family's good-luck charm, while I was hailed as the harbinger of misfortune. I was blamed for every calamity, while she got all the credit for every blessing. Even after my death, I heard them say, "If we had abandoned her at birth, or even ended her life then, none of this would have happened." I had once tried desperately to win their approval, only to be met with cold indifference. When I finally secured a coveted civil service post, they celebrated me for the first time in my life. I naively believed that I had been acknowledged at last. But then, they said, "Give your job to your sister. She needs it more." At that moment, something inside me completely died. I tried so hard to cling to the hard-won proof that I was not the family's misfortune, yet even that slipped through my grasp. In the end, I lost everything, even the life they had never once cherished.

Dans une vie passée, Lysandra était une guérisseuse au service d’un prince guerrier, Caelum. Leur amour était interdit, passionné, mais tragique. Accusée de sorcellerie par la reine jalouse, elle fut brûlée vive sous les yeux de son amant, enchaîné et impuissant. Des siècles plus tard, Lysandra se réveille dans le corps d’une brillante chirurgienne, hantée par des cauchemars qu’elle croit être de simples hallucinations. Mais lorsqu’un patient entre dans sa salle d’opération – un homme d’affaires énigmatique nommé Ciel Donovan –, tout bascule. Sa présence l’électrise, ravive une douleur ancienne, une brûlure sous sa peau. Ciel, lui, semble la connaître… et souffre d’un mal inconnu qu’aucun médecin ne peut apaiser.

I was the sole front desk clerk at a haunted hotel. Welcoming players, checking in on the bosses’ quarters, and slacking off a bit were all part of the job. At least, that was what I thought. It turned out my days were far from ordinary. A blood-drenched little girl in a tattered red dress kept ringing the service bell. Her eerie voice echoed, “Miss, why didn’t you come play with me?” A creepy black cat with glowing eyes wouldn’t stop meowing and rubbing against my legs. And then there was the old woman with claws like knives, cheerfully knitting me a sweater… out of players’ skin. One day, I took a day off to care for my sick mother. That was my biggest mistake. The entire game instance erupted in chaos. Bosses interrogated players, demanding to know where their precious front desk clerk had gone. “Did she abandon us? Is she never coming back?” I ran. They chased. But no matter how fast I fled, their grip on me only tightened. In the end, escape wasn’t an option.

Farahh has been through difficult times since she was a child, especially with her only sibling, whom she took care of by herself. She no longer expected her parents to take care of them because they had done nothing but gamble and drink. The day came when she had just returned from work. She couldn\'t find her sister in their room because her parents exchanged her sister for money to pay off their debts. It was as if she had been killed by what she had found out. Until the day came that she met a man named Paxton who offered her the chance to be a maid in his new condo and get paid millions every month. She also offered \'pretending wife service\' in return to triple her salary, but she didn\'t expect she would fall in love with him, little by little. What will be her reaction if she finds out that the man she loved was involved in what happened to her sister, Lyza? Will she change her affection for him?

Community Service. Two words I should be thankful for, but I’m not. I resent the hours it’s away from building my business. When they push the little girl into the room, her crazy curls barely held back by the barrette in her hair, and studious glasses on her face, I can tell she’s scared. Something inside of me breaks, and I want this girl to feel wanted again. What I’m unprepared for is meeting her mom. The second our hands touch, there are fireworks, bright lights, and a picture of the future I could one day have. The future I’ve never allowed myself to wish for. Community service becomes more than a chore. In the months that follow, I realize they’re just like me: they’ve been abandoned, left behind by the world, forgotten by those who should love them. Thanks to the one last hope in both our lives - we found the light in the darkness we’d been searching for.Trick is created by Laramie Briscoe, an eGlobal Creative Publishing author.
