I help my students gain admission to top state art academies, yet my boss, Sebastian Emerson, withholds every cent of the pay I earned from 24 consecutive days of overtime. When I confront him in anger, he accuses me of stealing 120 thousand dollars in training fees from the students. "Honestly, being poor is no excuse for being shady. And having disabled parents doesn't give you the right to steal. "You've got two days to pay it back! Otherwise, I'll make sure you spend a few nights in jail, and I'll even inform your parents!" When a student calls, he snatches the phone and starts screaming, "There's no money! All your tuition went into buying your art supplies! If you've got a problem, go ahead and sue me, brat!" Meanwhile, Jayla Buckley, who is curled up in his arms, keeps placing order after order of Chaennal haute couture without the slightest hesitation. Watching the two of them colluding so shamelessly, I grip my attorney license in my pocket until my knuckles ache. Take it to court? Litigation? That's my arena. And I'll make sure both of them end up exactly where they belong—behind bars.

While enrolling my son in an elite school, the administrator suddenly tells me my marriage certificate is forged. "According to our records, your marital status is listed as single." "But I've been married to my husband, Chandler Leighton, for seven years!" Behind me, other parents waiting in line burst out laughing mockingly. "Did she just say Chandler Leighton? She must be dreaming." Amid their ridicule, I leave and head straight to the city hall for a confirmation. And as a wife of seven years, my marital status in the system is stated as "Single". A cold dread washes over me as I press. "Who is Chandler Leighton's legal wife?" The clerk flatly spats out a name, "Heather Hammington." It was that name again! I rush home, ready to confront Chandler, but pause just outside the door when I hear voices inside. "It's been seven years, Mr. Leighton. Do you still have no plans to grant Mrs. Leighton a legal status?" After a lengthy pause, Chandler finally answers, "Just wait a little longer. Heather lost both her parents… I'm the only one who can help her, so she needs this title." "What if Mrs. Leighton finds out?" "Danielle loves me too much to leave, even if she finds out. Once Heather has established her foothold in the business industry, I'll make it official with Danielle and give her a true marriage certificate." He sounds so certain, unaware that I'm standing just outside the door with tears streaming down my face. "You'll be disappointed, you liar." I take out my phone and dial a number I haven't called in years. "Mom, I accept the Atwoods' marriage arrangement."

During the year that changed my life, my high school homeroom teacher called me to the corridor and asked if I was the heroine of the dirty scandal that shook the whole school. “I know you’re here on a scholarship because of your family’s underprivileged background, but you can’t just do anything for money!” As everyone threw me strange looks, she continued smugly, “Don’t deny it. The mole on the girl’s neck is just like yours!” I calmly wiped off the ink stain on my skin, revealing my unblemished neck. My teacher turned red in the face. Unfortunately for her, I had been reborn. This time, I was not going to fall into the same traps.

El día que fuimos al registro civil a firmar, mi novio, el verdadero heredero —Rodrigo Aguiñaga—, fue sustituido en pleno trámite. La prometida de Rodrigo —la "princesa de la mafia"— se aferró a su brazo y me miró con una sonrisa triunfal, como si ya hubiera ganado. —Estafadora matrimonial y falso heredero, ¿no son la pareja perfecta? No le respondí. Solo clavé la mirada en Rodrigo. Cuando el clan mafioso por fin lo recibió de vuelta como el verdadero heredero, por querer casarse conmigo se aguantó el castigo del clan tres días y tres noches. Pero hoy, en cambio, asintió y se sumó al "chiste" sin el menor remordimiento. —Es una broma, no te vas a enojar, ¿verdad? Y luego lo dijo como si estuviera repartiendo migajas: —Es solo el trámite. Cuando a Vanessa se le pase, tú y Luis se divorcian y luego tú y yo firmamos en el registro civil. Yo sonreí. Me di la vuelta y caminé directo hacia el falso heredero —Luis Aguiñaga—, lo miré de frente y solté, con una calma que hasta a mí me sorprendió: —Ya estamos casados por el civil, amor, así que toca planear bien nuestra boda.

In my third year of covert work along the border for Alpha Cole Grayson, the chairman of the Alliance, I was urgently summoned back to my pack by my mother. Apparently, my mom has used the pack's benefits as leverage to pick out a powerful mate for me. All the she-wolves envy me. After all, my mate is Alpha Leo Wagner of the Moon pack. He's the most outstanding werewolf among his peers, be it his identity, social standing, or capabilities. When Alpha Cole receives the news, he has a tiara custom-made before having it delivered to the venue where the marking ceremony will be held. "Thank you for your contributions to the Alliance over the past three years. I hope you'll live a happy life from now on." These are the words Alpha Cole left me with before leaving. But when I arrive at the Moon pack, I find out that Leo's secretary, Aria Thornwell, has worn the tiara. I berate her angrily, "That's the tiara representing the Luna's status! Give it back to me!" But Aria merely polishes the tiara on her head. She shows no intention of wanting to remove it. "What do you mean 'yours'? This is my tiara! Leo has already ordered me to attend the marking ceremony as your representative! "You're just a lowly she-wolf from a backwater pack, after all! You'll only humiliate everyone by attending such a grand ceremony!" I huff coldly before tearing the tiara off Aria's head. With her screams serving as the background ambience, I use my mind-link to contact Leo on the spot. "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation right now. Otherwise, I don't mind stripping the Alpha title off you."

Mi mamá accidentalmente me metió a un chat de grupo llamado “Familia Feliz”. En el grupo solo hay tres personas, mi mamá, mi papá y un chico que no conozco que lleva el apodo de “Tesoro”. Ellos están emocionadísimos organizando una fiesta de cumpleaños para él… y mañana es mi cumpleaños, ese que llevan diez años consecutivos olvidando. En el chat mamá escribe: ‘El lugar debe ser de ensueño, que se sienta como el rey de la fiesta.’ Luego, mi papá le hizo una gran transferencia de dinero, y le dijo: ‘No te preocupes por el dinero, solo no dejes que tu hermano se entere, se molestaría’. Mientras tanto yo, en silencio, tomo capturas de pantalla, esperando el momento perfecto para romper todos los lazos de una vez. En ese momento, mi hermana, siempre tan aplicada y ejemplar, me envía un mensaje al privado con una captura de pantalla de su conversación con mamá: “Mamá, ¿ya organizaste la fiesta sorpresa de cumpleaños para mi hermano? Me prometiste que esta sería la última vez que lo engañaremos”.
