"I love you but you love me?" "I sacrificed all my youthful feelings for you, but you refused?!" "If the door of the heart is closed, don't open it again!" ... "You gave me everything, you pursued me for more than 20 years? Is that why forcing me to love you?" "Leave me alone, find someone new!" "Love me, what's the use of you? Apart from sickness and pain, I don't give you anything!" "If that's the case, don't expect to escape from my hand!"

A los siete años, papá llevó a casa a una mujer hermosa y fue ella quien me regaló una caja de mangos. Ese mismo día, mamá me vio comerlos con tanto gusto. Firmó los papeles del divorcio sin decir nada y, poco después, se lanzó del edificio. Desde entonces, el mango se convirtió en la pesadilla que me acompañaría toda la vida. Por eso, el día de mi boda le dije a mi esposo, Héctor Preciado, que si algún día quería divorciarse, solo tenía que regalarme un mango. Él me abrazó sin responder y, desde ese momento, el mango también se volvió su tabú. Cinco años después de casarnos, en Nochebuena, su amiga de la infancia dejó un mango sobre su escritorio. Ese día, Héctor anunció que cortaba toda relación con Violeta Sánchez y la despidió de la empresa. Y ahí sí creí, sin dudarlo, que él era el hombre indicado para mí. Hasta que, seis meses después, regresé del extranjero tras cerrar un trato de cien millones de dólares. En la cena de celebración, Héctor me pasó una bebida. Y, cuando ya me había tomado la mitad del vaso, Violeta, la mujer a la que había despedido de la empresa, apareció detrás de mí con una sonrisa provocadora y preguntó en tono despreocupado: —¿Está bueno el jugo de mango? Me giré para mirar a Héctor con incredulidad. Él apenas contenía la risa. —No te enojes —dijo—. Violeta insistió en que te hiciera esta broma. —No te di un mango, solo jugo de mango. Luego añadió, como si nada: —Pero, creo que Violeta tiene razón: que no comas mango es una manía tuya. —Mira lo feliz que estabas tomándolo hace un momento. Mi expresión se endureció. Levanté la mano, le arrojé el resto del jugo en el rostro y me di media vuelta para irme. Porque hay cosas con las que no se bromea. El mango no lo es. Y mi decisión de divorciarme, tampoco.

Even though we live in modern times, the coven seems stuck in the Dark Ages. As the heir apparent to the throne, Zalindra is under pressure to marry in order to maintain the lineage's strength. Seriously? That feels so out of touch with today's world. Her true passion lies in honing her skills to protect the coven. Romance? Not a priority for her, let alone marriage. But everything changes when she encounters Lucian and Lorian. I hate to sound cliché, but it was a case of instant attraction. Just one tiny hiccup: they have no idea they're witches. That doesn't make me want them any less .

She was born into the mafia. He swore he’d never love anyone from it. Gild Leoni knows how to survive in a man’s world—smart, fearless, and trained by her mafia father to fight, think, and win. But when she sets eyes on Alexandro Campania, the cold, dangerously handsome heir to the most feared mafia in Italy, her heart makes a choice her head can’t stop. The problem? Alexandro has vowed to marry only a woman who knows nothing about the mafia life. So Gild does the unthinkable. She becomes someone else—sweet, innocent, ordinary. A flower girl with a fake name and a perfect smile. Now, she’s playing the most dangerous game of her life—falling for a man who can never know who she really is. But Alexandro is already watching her. Intrigued. Drawn in. Addicted. And if he finds out the truth… He won’t just walk away. He might destroy them both.

Cath despises Azul so much to the pits of hell. Makita lang niya ang nakakainis nitong ngisi ay halos mapigtas na ang pasensya niya at ang kagustuhan niyang kalmutin ito ay lalong tumitindi. Ito ang asungot na kahit kailan ay hindi niya na talaga magawang kausapin nang hindi sinisinghalan. She can shout at him, curse him from head to toe, but Azul made sure to her one thing: mananatiling nakakabit sa kanyang pagkatao ang apelyido nito. Yup. She's married to that asshole, and he's surely not going let her off the hook that easily.

Con nueve meses de embarazo, un exempleado, que guardaba un profundo rencor tras haber sido despedido para darle ese puesto a mi esposo, me llevó a la fuerza a la azotea del edificio y me asestó decenas de puñaladas. Mi marido, Víctor Escobar, capitán de un escuadrón de rescate, prefirió movilizar a todo su personal para impedir que Raquel Herrera, su exnovia, sumida en una depresión, le prendiera fuego a su departamento. No le supliqué que viniera a rescatarme. En mi vida anterior, precisamente porque lo había llamado suplicándole ayuda, él había dejado desprotegida a Raquel y había ido corriendo a salvarme. Mi bebé y yo logramos sobrevivir, pero ella, después de prenderle fuego a su departamento, murió consumida por el incendio. En apariencia, Víctor no me había guardado ningún rencor. Incluso llegó a reservarme una suite de maternidad privada. Sin embargo, el mismo día que di a luz, me amarró ¡y nos acuchilló sin piedad, a mí y a mi bebé recién nacido! —¡Ese día tú y ese tipo se pusieron de acuerdo para engañarme, ¿no es así?! ¡Tus «heriditas» no eran nada graves! ¡Ni de chiste te ibas a morir! —exclamó, fuera de sí—. ¡Pues, si tanto te encanta que te apuñalen, entonces, te daré el gusto! Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, había regresado al día en que me habían tomado como rehén. Pero, esta vez, tomé una decisión: lo dejaría correr para salvar a su Raquel.

"Everything was fine, until it wasn't. And that was because I was carrying a billionaire's baby from a one-night stand. A cold-hearted billionaire with an enormous ego. The question is, will that baby be my escape from my narcissistic parents, or will it bring even more complications, as I strike a deal with a billionaire? "I am your typical billionaire, the kind who walks around with a proud aura. A one-night with a woman brings me a solution to all of my troubles. But the problem was, I couldn't understand if this woman was bringing me another chance at happiness, or she was just karma, here for a payback."

The biggest mistake you can ever make is letting a woman take over your heart. Women are instrument of evil, they love to be loved by the kindest hearts but they love to live with the guy that has the biggest bag because apparently, their hearts beat for two things: money and solely peace. But in all cases, money always comes out on top, that's why I now preach, "screw love, chase money." Otherwise, you'll be standing alone at the damn altar, waiting for the bride who ditched you for a wealthier man.
