Me incorporé de la cama de Antonio Toscano. Con toda tranquilidad, me tendió el sostén y dijo: —Cambié el código de la puerta. De ahora en adelante, si no hace falta, mejor no vengas. Me quedé helada un segundo y, sin pensarlo, pregunté: —¿Por qué? Él sonrió de medio lado. —Ayer ella aceptó ser mi novia. No quiero que te vea y se enoje. Me costó mucho tiempo conquistarla.

Six years of love ended in betrayal the night before my wedding. Pregnant, disowned, and cast aside. I thought my life was over until he claimed me. A dangerous man who would burn the world just to keep me breathing. Now my ex wants me back, and my family wants me erased. The child I carry has become a prize worth spilling blood for. They think I’m weak, but they’re about to learn what betrayal creates.

My younger sister, Sophie Sawyer, got pregnant before marriage, gave birth to a baby boy in a small clinic, and then disappeared. The doctor used the address she left behind to find my family and handed the child to me. My parents knelt and begged me to raise him, and that was how I, an unmarried young woman, struggled through life with a child on my hip. When I finally managed to raise him, Sophie came back, standing beside a big-shot boss dripping in gold. She held her son and cried, accusing me of being jealous of her, stealing her child, and tearing them apart. My nephew cut ties with me without hesitation, choosing her over me. My parents kicked me out of the house. The neighbors all condemned me. In despair, I jumped to my death. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Sophie gave birth.

I've sustained grievous wounds thanks to me stepping into a trap by accident. While I'm dying in the forest, my parents, older brother, as well as my fiance are busy preparing the afterparty for my older sister, Selene Sutton, who has put on an outstanding performance at the hunting rite. I use what's left of my energy to ask for help through the mind-link connecting me and the others. Yet, none of them bothers replying to me. Even Leon Lane, the next candidate set to inherit the Alpha position as well as the wolf who's betrothed to me, blocks out my pleas for help. A long, long time later, I finally hear Leon's message coming through the icy expanse of the mind palace. "Stop it with your tantrum, Ivy. Tonight is Selene's afterparty. We'll talk more once the party is over." As I stare at the moon in the sky, I lose the will to struggle to survive anymore. It turns out that my life isn't as important as one of Selene's afterparties. This is the 99th time everyone has abandoned me for Selene's sake. Well, this time, I don't want them in my life anymore.

I fell in love with my brother's combat training instructor, the Alpha of the Stormfang Pack. He was very kind to me. I pursued him for eight years, thinking that he wanted me to be his mate. But he betrayed my sincerity, ignored my efforts, and even used my love to pursue his childhood sweetheart. Realizing the truth, I chose to leave. But he regretted it and did everything possible to win me back, but everything was too late by then.

O ano em que renasci foi o ano em que a guerra contra os vampiros começou. A primeira coisa que fiz foi me livrar do filhote. O filhote do meu companheiro. Do Alfa Lucas. Na minha vida passada, ele encobriu sua amiga de infância, Sarah, quando ela se acasalou com um vampiro. Ele pegou meu filhote de sangue puro e o trocou pelo bastardo mestiço dela. Eles me rotularam como traidora. Torturaram-me até a morte em uma masmorra de prata. E meu próprio filho, que sofreu lavagem cerebral por Sarah, ficou sobre meu cadáver e me disse para apodrecer no inferno. Quando abri meus olhos novamente, estava grávida de três meses. Não hesitei. Caminhei direto até a cabana da bruxa e bebi o veneno que ela me deu. Mas, enquanto a vida se esvaía, abri outra garrafa: uma cara Poção Mímica. Ela simula os batimentos cardíacos de um filhote. Ela exala o cheiro de uma mãe à espera. Lucas quer uma criança para levar a culpa pelo crime de Sarah. Certo. Eu darei um show a ele. Desta vez, não tenho fraquezas.

Mi esposo, con quien llevo cinco años casada, resultó ser el heredero perdido de la familia mafiosa, Rhys. El día que lo reincorporaron a la familia, tomó a nuestro hijo de la mano y se dirigió a un lujoso coche de un millón de dólares con Isla, su novia de la infancia. Luego, frunciendo ligeramente el ceño, me dijo: —Hazel, solo me llevaré a Isla y a nuestro hijo conmigo. Tú quédate aquí por ahora. Una vez que haya asegurado mi posición en la familia Rhys, volveré por ti. Asentí con calma y acepté su disposición sin protestar. Sabía que incluso si forzaba mi regreso con él, no terminaría bien. En mi vida anterior, lloré e insistí en ir con él. Sin otra opción, Sam me llevó de vuelta a la familia. Sin embargo, no pasó mucho tiempo antes de que Isla me incriminara, acusándome de filtrar los secretos de la familia mafiosa Rhys. Según las reglas de la familia, fui sentenciada a muerte. Cuando se ejecutó el veredicto, mi hijo me gritó con los ojos enrojecidos: —¡Te odio! ¡Si no hubieras insistido en venir, no tendría a una traidora como madre! ¡Habría tenido una mejor mamá hace mucho tiempo! En ese instante, mi corazón se rindió. Renacida en el momento justo antes de que mi esposo reclamara su identidad, esta vez elegí dejarlo ir sin dudarlo, dejando de interponerme en la felicidad que él y nuestro hijo deseaban.

My Alpha mate has canceled our carefully planned honeymoon trips fourteen times for his Omega secretary. The first time, because of the secretary's phone call about "lost territorial maps," he didn't hesitate to abandon me at a strange Nordic airport. The second time, because of the secretary's plea for help, he drove back alone to the pack's core territory, leaving me alone in the dangerous hunting grounds. For four years, I carefully planned fourteen honeymoon trips, but each time my mate would abandon me to choose to accompany his Omega secretary. Finally, I stopped insisting and decided to give up this mating relationship that was never firmly chosen. But when I joined the Alpha Council's secret research project and decided to leave forever, he cried and searched the whole world for me.

—Padrino, ¿así es la postura correcta? Estábamos en el Club Deportivo y le enseñaba a mi ahijada la técnica para entrar al agua. Briseida se inclinó, dejando su trasero bien firme en alto, y sin querer terminó rozando mi paquete. Sentí un corrientazo, una sensación eléctrica que me sacudió. Pero lo que más me excitó fue lo que pasó después de que saltara. Como era malísima para nadar, empezó a chapotear con desesperación en cuanto entró al agua y, entre tanto ajetreo, se le soltó el hilo del bikini. Me lancé de inmediato a rescatarla. Ella forcejeaba y se aferraba a mí con todas sus fuerzas, haciendo que se la rozara una y otra vez. Y lo más increíble era que su padre estaba ahí mismo, observándonos a un lado de la alberca.
