Mi amigo de la infancia me había prometido que, al graduarnos de la universidad, se casaría conmigo. Pero el día de nuestra boda llegó tarde y, cuando por fin lo encontramos, estaba en una cama de hotel, enredado con mi hermanastra, Viviana Torres. Ante todos los presentes, fue el heredero del hombre más rico del país, Sebastián Fuentes, quien dio un paso al frente y declaró, sin reservas, que yo había sido la mujer que amó en secreto durante muchos años. Llevábamos cinco años de matrimonio. Cada palabra que alguna vez dije, Sebastián la guardó en su corazón. Yo creía, de verdad, que era la persona que él más valoraba en el mundo. Hasta que un día, mientras hacía los quehaceres de la casa, encontré por accidente un documento confidencial oculto en el fondo de su escritorio. La primera página era el currículum de Viviana Torres. Sobre él, escrito de su puño y letra, se leía: “Atención prioritaria. Por encima de todo.” Luego venía un expediente médico que nunca había visto. La fecha correspondía exactamente a la noche en que sufrí aquel accidente automovilístico. Esa vez fui llevada al hospital perteneciente al Grupo Fuentes, pero la cirugía nunca llegaba. Cuando desperté, el bebé que llevaba en mi vientre ya no estaba conmigo, perdido por la hemorragia. Lloré hasta quedarme sin voz en los brazos de Sebastián, pero jamás le conté la verdad. No quería causarle más preocupación. Pero ahora lo sé: esa misma noche Viviana también resultó herida, y la orden que Sebastián envió al hospital fue: “Movilicen a todos los especialistas. Prioridad absoluta para Viviana Torres.” Las lágrimas se filtraron entre las páginas, borrando parte de la tinta. “Si no soy tu máxima prioridad, entonces desapareceré de tu mundo.”

A velha amiga de infância de Valentim Leal, Dalila Travassos, voltou a ocupar o banco do carona. Dessa vez, não fiz escândalo. Fui direto pro banco de trás, sentando ao lado do melhor amigo dele, Guilherme Novaes. Com o carro sacolejando na estrada, meu joelho roçou na coxa firme e tensa do Guilherme. Não tirei. Ele também não se mexeu. Na parada do posto, Dalila arrastou o Valentim pro banheiro. Assim que as portas se fecharam, Guilherme segurou minha nuca e me beijou. Perdida naquele beijo quente e confuso, pensei: Desconfiar dos homens. Entender os homens. Virar um deles. Essa é a grande verdade.

During Black Friday, the intelligent system I develop helps the company run highly targeted ads and brings in 30 million dollars in revenue. But when I apply for the project bonus, the director rejects it. "The system is just an auxiliary tool. The performance belongs to the sales department." I hold back my frustration and pull up the system logs. "88% of the orders come from the system's targeted pushes. According to company policy, I should receive a 0.5% commission." The director glances at me, twirling his pen. "If the sales commission doesn't go to the sales department, should it go to you? And your lousy system exceeds the API limit and racks up extra fees. You still owe us a hundred thousand dollars. We'll deduct that from your salary." Three days before Christmas sales are set to begin, the system completely shuts down because of API restrictions. Late at night, the director calls me. I stare at my computer screen. "Since the system is just an auxiliary tool, why don't you start with manual targeting?"

Depois de terminar o treinamento de Luna que toda loba sonhava, fui até meu Alfa, Damien, com um pedido. Para romper nosso vínculo de companheiros. — Tudo isso, só porque perdi sua cerimônia para ajudar a companheira do meu falecido irmão, Lilith, com os renegados no território dela? Ele deu um sorrisinho de desdém e falou baixinho, com a voz rouca. Assenti, em silêncio. — Dei minha palavra ao meu irmão antes dele morrer. Jurei que protegeria Lilith. Não posso quebrar esse juramento! Por que você não consegue entender? — ele sussurrou, suspirando pesadamente. — Pare de ser tão infantil! Por que você não pode ser razoável, como Lilith é? Eu o empurrei com uma calma gélida. Dez anos. Por dez anos depois que nosso vínculo foi confirmado, abri mão de tudo. Cada passatempo, cada sonho… tudo para aprender a ser a Luna dele.

I thought I had it all: a loving husband, a successful career, and a family to call my own. But it was all a lie. Behind the façade of our perfect marriage, my husband was hiding a dark secret.

Despite the doctor's warnings, he refused to sign the papers for a C-section, insisting that I give birth naturally. His stubbornness cost me my life, and that of our unborn child. Or so I thought. But fate has a way of twisting and turning. The next day, I woke up. And with that, a new chapter began. A chapter of revenge, of betrayal, and of redemption. But will I be able to reclaim what's rightfully mine, or will the secrets of my future destroy me?"

"Suck me then" "Suck me to dryness Lucien. Isn't that the only thing your clan is known for? Go on and consume me!!! " He pulled her closer to where he sat. Her breathings intensified and words could not escape her mouth. The hot air was visible between them in the darkened room. The door went open.
