El día del divorcio, solo me llevé la ropa de la boda. La casa, el auto, el dinero, las hijas... todo se lo dejé a mi esposo, Daniel Vegas. Él me miró con sorpresa y esbozó una sonrisa burlona: —¿Estás segura? Criaste a las tres niñas con tus propias manos, ¿tampoco las quieres? —Si de verdad no quieres nada, tampoco te pediré la pensión alimenticia. Así será justo. Firmé rápido los documentos del divorcio y dije con tono sereno: —Sí, muy justo. Daniel dudó un momento antes de estampar lentamente su firma. —Si te arrepientes, puedes... Interrumpí su frase con un gesto de la mano y me fui sin volver la mirada. Daniel siempre decía que me casé con él por dinero e influencia, e incluso intentó atarlo a través de los hijos. Pero ya no importaba. Cuando al fin viera mi cadáver, lo entendería.

“Your marriage was just a game.” Those were the words that shattered Aurora Snow’s world. Five years of marriage. Seven years of sacrifice. Seven years of love… that turned out to be a game. For seven years, Aurora Snow believed her husband was a poor, crippled man who needed her. She worked endless menial jobs, gave up her dream scholarship, and carried the burden of their family just to support him and their son. Until the night she delivered a package to a luxury party… and discovered the horrifying truth. Her “crippled” husband stood tall among billionaires. And the lavish party? It was for the woman he truly loved. To make things worse, Aurora learns her entire marriage was nothing more than a cruel test—an amusement between young wealthy elites to see how far a "principled woman" could suffer for love. Heartbroken and humiliated, she demands a divorce. But fate has other plans. After nearly drowning in despair, Aurora wakes up in the mansion of a cold and powerful billionaire—Damon Stone, a man feared in the business world and plagued by a dangerous secret, a condition that no medicine can cure. He offers her a deal. A contract marriage. Be his wife. Help him control the uncontrollable urges that threaten his sanity. And in return, he will give her protection, power, and a home for her broken family. Aurora agrees. But the deeper she enters Damon's world, the more shocking truths begin to surface. The silent little boy in his mansion… The mysterious night she cannot remember… And the baby she thought she lost forever. Because the greatest betrayal of her life was only the beginning. And the man she married to escape her past might be the one fate chose for her all along.

La novena ceremonia de unión entre el Rey Alfa, Thorne Ravencrest, y yo, finalmente ha llegado. Sin embargo, una vez más, no logré convertirme en su Reina Luna. No porque él rompiera su promesa, sino porque no estoy lo suficientemente calificada. Los Ancianos dejaron muy claro que, cada Reina Luna reconocida por la Diosa de la Luna, a lo largo de la historia debe cultivar 365 Flores de Luz de Luna, utilizando su propia esencia de sangre. Pero cada año, en la víspera de la ceremonia, sin importar cuánto cuidado tenga, siempre falta una flor. Este año, casi me desangré por completo y apenas logré cultivar el número correcto. Extasiada, voy a buscar a Thorne, queriendo sorprenderlo. A través de la puerta entreabierta de la sala del trono, escucho a su Beta decirle: —Rey Alfa, Sera lo ha estado esperando por ocho años. ¿Alguna vez se unirá a ella? Thorne sacude la cabeza. —Le prometí a Willow que este año tampoco podemos unirnos. Su Beta vacila. —¿Y si Sera realmente logra cultivar suficientes Flores de Luz de Luna? Thorne se queda en silencio por un momento y luego aplaude. Un lobo de las sombras aparece y se funde en la oscuridad. Poco después, el lobo regresa con una Flor de Luz de Luna entre sus mandíbulas. Él desgarra la flor hasta hacerla trizas y deja escapar un suspiro. —Sera tiene sangre de sobra. Olvida un año; ella podría seguir cultivando flores por otros diez años y estar bien. Pero Willow ha sido envenenada con acónito. Soy todo lo que le queda, y ella me quiere a su lado en sus últimos días. No soporto rechazar a Willow, lo que significa que Sera simplemente tendrá que esperar un poco más. Me muerdo el labio con fuerza, apenas capaz de creer lo que escucho. Así que las Flores de Luz de Luna que desaparecían misteriosamente siempre fueron destruidas por él. Convertirme en Reina Luna ha sido mi sueño desde la infancia. Pero si él nunca tuvo la intención de unirse a mí, entonces es hora de que lo deje.

I was once Fiona's consigliere. I put the Falcone Family in her hands，helping her become the untouchable Don. And when a rival family put out a hit, I took the car bomb meant for her. It cost me my eyes. She knelt by my hospital bed and swore a blood oath. She would be my eyes. I would be her only husband. Later, after an operation by a top surgeon, my eyes recovered. I couldn't wait to rush home to surprise her. But when I pushed open the door, I saw her tangled together with Leo, her bodyguard, on the desk I had custom-made for her. Fiona was pressed against Leo in revealing clothing, her face flushed. Crumpled white tissues littered the floor. Between ragged breaths, she called Leo’s name repeatedly. "Fiona, why are you still keeping that useless blind fuck around? Let me take care of him for you." "Leo, shut up. I need more time. Now, get inside me. That's all that matters." The Chicago winter rain was bone-chilling that night. I completely gave up. After walking out of the house in just my shirt, I pulled out my phone and booked a one-way ticket to Sicily. I will cut ties completely with this family and with her.

El día que iba a dar a luz a mis gemelos, soborné al médico de la familia para que me inyectara todos los potentes medicamentos disponibles en el hospital para frenar las contracciones y retrasar el parto por la fuerza. Lo hice porque, en mi vida pasada, Vincenzo Moretti había sido diagnosticado con baja calidad de esperma, apenas podía concebir. Para asegurarse de tener un heredero, mantuvo diez amantes fuera de casa y anunció que el hijo que naciera primero sería el próximo padrino de la familia. Me había prometido que si lograba dar a luz antes que ellas, se despediría de todas sus amantes y permitiría que mi hijo heredara el clan Moretti. Yo le creí. Cuando descubrí que estaba esperando gemelos, temblaba de la emoción. Pero al final del parto, ordenó que me arrojaran junto a mis recién nacidos al frío sótano donde estaban los vinos, y le prohibieron a cualquiera acercarse. —Lucia viene de un origen humilde. Solo quería asegurarle a su hijo un estatus dentro de la familia para que ambos tuvieran un futuro mejor. Pero tú, a propósito, difundiste la noticia, haciendo que ella sufriera un parto desesperado y causando la muerte de ambos. —Eres tan cruel que no mereces ser la madre del heredero de la familia Moretti. Reflexiona bien, en tres días te dejaré salir. Luego, ordenó al mayordomo sellar las puertas. Pero lo que no sabía es que esa noche, el sótano se incendió, y mis hijos y yo morimos quemados en las llamas. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, regresé a la noche anterior al parto. En esta vida, no seré la esposa de un mafioso. Cuando nazcan mis hijos y recupere fuerzas, huiré con mis pequeños lo más lejos posible.

Eu entrei no livro e virei a bela figurante sem importância. E o meu irmão é o único homem normal da história, porque o papel dele é o de primeiro amor frio, abstinente e inalcançável que a protagonista jamais consegue conquistar. Quando a protagonista chora e se declara para ele, ele está estudando. Quando a protagonista quer se entregar de corpo e alma, ele está empreendendo. Enquanto a protagonista se perde entre vários homens, ele já se tornou um magnata, com renda anual nas centenas de bilhões. Eu achava que ele viveria uma vida inteira de pureza e autocontrole. Até que, certa noite, vi ele segurando uma peça da minha roupa nas mãos, murmurando o meu nome em voz baixa...

Every one thinks her life is perfect but inside her, she knows it's far from even good or she should say that it's more like a luxurious hell. She has everything that makes life fancy but no meaning. She never receives love from her own home Her heart is totally empty until her secret prayer came to life. That one night when she asks her mom who passed away long time ago, after giving birth to her for something she never thought possible. "I know it's impossible for me to be with you and I don't know kung hanggang kailan ko kayang mag-isa... well you could at least send me an angel." nakangusong wika niya sa kawalan habang nakatingin sa nakangiting larawan ng kanyang ina. Nasa ganoon siyang tagpo nang may biglang kumatok. Who could possibly that be?

I am the only son of the richest man in Fairmont. Before my coming-of-age, my mother selects nine girls for me, one of whom I am to marry when I turn 18. I choose Ruth Lonsdale, the girl who had grown up by my side since we were kids. But on our wedding day, Ruth secretly leaks my whereabouts to kidnappers and takes every single bodyguard my mother had assigned to protect me. After I am abducted, I call her and beg for help, but she answers with a cold laugh, "You're still acting? You had a bunch of thugs go after Jack, and I haven't gotten even with you for that yet! Anyway, I only took your bodyguards to protect him and make him feel safe. Don't make such a big deal out of it." She then hangs up. Enraged, the kidnappers stab me repeatedly before throwing my body from the rooftop. When I open my eyes again, I'm back to the day I'm supposed to choose my bride. This time, I didn't even glance at Ruth's photo. I point to the most ordinary-looking girl of them all and say, "I choose her."

I stand in the hospital after my two older brothers decline all 99 of my phone calls. They finally appear, bringing with them the biological sister they found. My gentle eldest brother, who had once rescued me from my so-called abusive parents, raises his hand and slaps me across the face. "Cynthia, you're actually pretending to have a terminal illness just to compete with Sarah for our affection? And you came to this kind of place to frighten us?" I clutch my swollen cheek and listen as my second brother, who always says he'll trust me no matter what, holds Sarah in his arms and laughs out loud. "Are you trying to fake being sick to get our attention after seeing that Sarah is in poor health? "Just cut the act. You've been living in luxury since childhood and have always been in perfect health. How could you possibly be ill?" Sarah Crawford speaks up thoughtfully, "Don't blame her, you two. I think she just feels like I've stolen away your love for her, which is why she has become so unreasonable..." I look at the two brothers who have doted on me for ten years and suddenly feel that nothing matters anymore. After all, I only have seven days left to live. In seven days, everything will return to normal after my departure. But by then, they'll be the ones unable to accept it.
