Second Lead Syndrome Artinya

The last thing she saw as she lay down in a pool of her blood was the face of her husband with his arms around a strange woman. His gaze held disgust and so much hatred that she wondered how she never noticed it. Poison. She was poisoned. Lifting her hands weakly, she grasped the only gift he had ever given her. A deep sapphire encrusted ring in the shape of a flower. The edges dug into her palms as she felt the last of her life drifting away from her. She had loved him even more than her own family, her friends, her own self. Setting her eyes on him had been her the start of her first obsession. She gave up everything for his love but only received hate. "You brought this upon yourself" were the last words she heard, then her life was gone like a candle going out. ************************ Susan went back in time just as soon as she was dying, she decides this time to change her destiny and avoid the man who killed her but fate has more in store for her as she still has unsealed feelings for him. Will she change her destiny or will she go back to her cause of death.

I was born just one minute after Tiara, but the world treated that one minute as if it lasted a lifetime. She was the star. I was the shadow. She was flawless. I was the afterthought. She was loved. I was forgotten. Even by Reagan de Russo, heir to the wealthiest family in the country and the man I had secretly loved for the past ten years. But to him, there was only Tiara. And when he proposed to her, I knew my quiet little dream had finally died. Until that day came. The day Tiara left him at the altar. The day the world stopped turning for just a second. The day the man who had never even glanced my way, turned to me and asked me to take her place. I knew what I was. An escape. A damage control. A backup plan. And I... I was too tired of being strong. So I said yes. We married. Without love. Without a future. Just a one-year contract and a life of make-believe in front of flashing cameras and watching eyes. But the longer I stayed by his side, the harder it became to tell what was real and what was just part of the performance. Because for the first time... Reagan saw me. But can love truly grow from the ruins of lies, old wounds, and the shadow of a woman who’s always been his first choice? Or will I always be… only the second best?

I hadn't seen myself since I was twelve, vibrant and healthy. I was a child then, and now I looked like a ghost. My face was hollow and pale like a sick person. I saw the scar on my face, it burned and had inflamed my cheek so that it was swollen. My eyes were red from the tears. My hair was dull and limp over my skull. My purple eyes were the only piece of me that still held some semblance of life. I could see scars even on my neck, and I knew that my body was even more scarred, and even more pathetic... "How dare you be so stupid." Jennifer said. "How dare you think the Alpha wants you for more than your blood. Imagine him mating with you, when he could have me."
