結婚してから2年、法律上の妻は私ではないことに気づいた

結婚してから2年、法律上の妻は私ではないことに気づいた

夫と結婚して2年も経ったが、ペアローンを申し込もうとした時までは、彼の法律上の妻が別人だったことは知らなかった。 そうだったか。私との「結婚式」というのは単なる私的な儀式に過ぎず、正式に提出された婚姻届には別の女性の名前が書かれたのだ。 法律上では、私は彼の妻ではなく、ただの愛人だった。 傷心して家に帰ると、ドアの外で夫と彼の親友との会話が聞こえた。 「いつも神経が張り詰めているお前を見ていると、こっちまで疲れるよ。まったく!鈴子(すずこ)ちゃんをあれほど愛しているのなら、なぜあの山下美幸(やました みゆき)と婚姻届を出したんだ?お前、一体何を考えているのだ」 宮崎誠(みやさき まこと)は不思議そうに尋ねた。 橋本隆祐(はしもと たかすけ)は複雑な表情を浮かべ、心が混乱しているように口を開いた。 「最初は、美幸のことを鈴子の身代わりだとしか思わなかったが、でも、美幸が去った後、僕は寂しくなり……ほぼ毎日、彼女が恋しくてたまらなかった。結局、彼女をアシスタントとして呼び戻さずにはいられなかった」 数秒後、彼はため息混じりに話し続けた。 「僕には鈴子も美幸も必要だ。だから、鈴子には正々堂々と一緒に暮らしてあげてる。その代わり、美幸には法律上の妻という身分を与えたのだ。公平だろ?」 ドアの外で、私は体が震え、心が引き裂かれるような痛みを感じ、世界が崩れ落ちたような感覚だった。 「鈴子も美幸も必要だ」という彼の言葉を聞いてはじめて、彼が二人の女性を同時に愛してしまったと分かった。 彼は幼なじみの私と一緒にいながらも、愛人も手放したくないようだ。 彼にとって、自分が特別な存在で、彼に至れたり尽くせたりで守られる大切な人だと思い込んでいた。 しかしながら、彼は私をバカにして、私の気持ちを踏みいじった。 真相がわかった時、私は泣きもせず、騒ぎもせず、ただ静かにその場から立ち去った。 そして、計画2件を立て始めた……

Choosing the Outcast Alpha

Choosing the Outcast Alpha

My coming-of-age ceremony was supposed to be a celebration. My father, the Alpha of Alphas, had invited every powerful pack in the land. His goal: for me to choose a mate from the land's strongest Alphas. I chose the most powerful of them all, Alpha Lukas. But my sister Lyla, my father's bastard, was only allowed a lowly beta. She was slaughtered in the forest. After her death, Lukas and I crafted 99 soul crystals in her memory. I thought he did it for me, to honor my fallen sister. But then he killed me in battle. With his bare hands. "You bitch! If you hadn't chosen me, Lyla would have been my mate!" Only then did I learn the truth. He had only ever loved Lyla. He hated me for stealing the life that should have been hers. Those 99 soul crystals… they weren't for her memory. They were for my penance. I died in a sea of despair. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day of my ceremony. Facing the most powerful Alphas in the world, I walked past them all and chose the one no one wanted. The half-breed outcast despised by all. Salome.

Alpha Rising: From Outcast to Empire

Alpha Rising: From Outcast to Empire

The day my adopted sister Xina was diagnosed with a rare blood disease, I was captured by rival pack hunters and taken across pack territories. In a hidden den beneath the mountains, I was chained like an omega during the day and subjected to endless humiliation. At night, they locked me in a moonless chamber and extracted my blood and bone marrow while I was conscious. By the time my pack found me, my body was broken beyond recognition, covered in bite marks, and infected with numerous diseases that even our supernatural healing couldn't combat. My mother, Alpha Serena, looked at me barely clinging to life, and howled so painfully she collapsed several times. My brother Ivan even traveled beyond our ancestral lands to find healers who could treat me. But in my half-conscious state, I accidentally overheard their conversation: "Mother, we captured Lisa just to save Xina, and let her be violated by so many rogues. Now we're taking one of her kidneys too—isn't that going to kill her?" Mother was silent for a long time, then choked up and said: "For Xina, I had no choice." "Besides, Lisa challenged Xina's rank all these years, made her severely depressed. This is just me atoning to Xina on her behalf." "It doesn't matter if she's been tainted. From now on, we'll keep her in the packhouse and take care of her. That'll count as compensation." As the silver blade sliced into my body, tears streamed uncontrollably from my eyes. A den with four wolves... was simply too crowded.

El Castigo del Don

El Castigo del Don

A medida que se acercaba mi fecha de parto, salió a la luz una discrepancia enorme en las cuentas de armas de la familia Galante. Por esto el mando tomó una decisión rápida: me enviaron a mí, Sophia Vitale, la esposa del Don —esa mujer que todos decían que no tenía nada mejor que hacer—, para inspeccionar de manera personal el arsenal y verificar el inventario. Yo creí que era una revisión de rutina. Por lo que nunca imaginé que la ahijada de mi esposo, Mónica Leona, lo usaría como tapadera para volar todo el arsenal por los aires. La explosión fue ensordecedora. El fuego rasgó el cielo y el concreto se desplomó a mi alrededor, aplastándome, mientras un dolor abrasador me desgarraba el estómago. Sin embargo, contrario a lo esperable, no llamé a mi esposo por su línea privada de máxima prioridad, sino que, en cambio, envié una señal de auxilio a mi padre. En mi vida anterior, en el instante en que había ocurrido la explosión, yo había usado ese mismo canal prioritario para llamar a mi esposo. El bebé había sobrevivido y Mónica había muerto en la explosión. Mi esposo había dicho que no me culpaba, que Mónica era una extraña y que un heredero importaba más. No escatimó en gastos, contrató a especialistas obstétricos de élite para vigilarme día y noche, diciéndome que me mantuviera tranquila y esperara el parto. Luego, el día en que entré en labor, él mismo nos encerró a mí y al bebé dentro de un almacén abandonado, el cual empapó con gasolina y encendió, quemándonos vivos. —Si no hubieras retrasado todo a propósito, ella no habría muerto. ¿De verdad creíste que haciéndote la víctima ibas a engañarme? Ni lo sueñes —dijo—. ¿Tanto te gusta jugar con fuego? Bien. Entonces te dejaré vivir su desesperación en carne propia. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, estaba de regreso en el arsenal, justo en el instante exacto antes de la explosión.
