La chica que Iván Herrera mantenía volvió a buscarme para hacer una escena. —De verdad amo demasiado a Iván… ¿no podrías dejar que se quede conmigo? Él, sentado a un lado, no dijo nada. Solo me envió un mensaje: «Dile que sí, solo hazle creer que tiene una oportunidad.» Le seguí la corriente. Y, en silencio, empecé a empacar mis cosas para dejar la casa que compartíamos. Al salir, escuché las burlas de sus amigos. —Vaya, sí que es obediente la «esposa». Entonces si le pides que pierda al bebé, ¿también lo haría? Iván alzó las cejas, con calma. —¿Apostamos? —Yo digo que en una semana estará llorando frente al hospital… pero lo hará. Yo no dije nada. Solo abrí otro chat, leí el último mensaje: «¿Quieres casarte conmigo?» Y respondí: «Sí.»

My best friend and I had been abducted by the Pendragon brothers—a duo consisting of a religious CEO and a top-billed movie star. We became their secret lovers against our will. "I'm pregnant, Lilith," my best friend said, tears glistening in her eyes. "Me too, Lindsay," I replied softly, caressing my belly. "But I won't go through with it." The brothers heard us. Their control tightened. They watched us during mealtimes, while we slept, and even during our bathroom breaks. We could not endure it any longer, so we fought back. In their anger, the brothers kept mistresses who resembled us. We thought we were free until one day, they found us. They called us homewreckers and hurled insults at us. They broke into our house, scarred our faces, broke our legs, and kicked us until we miscarried. It did not matter how much we tried to explain ourselves. They removed our clothes and paraded us in the street. Finally, the Pendragons arrived. They raised their marriage certificates and declared, "Lilith and Lindsay are our wives!"

In an East London lock up, two film makers, Jimmy and Sam, are duct taped to chairs and forced to watch a snuff film by Ashkan, a loan shark to whom they owe a lot of money. If they don’t pay up, they’ll be starring in the next one. Before the film reaches its end, Ashkan and all his men are slaughtered by unknown assailants. Only Jimmy and Sam survive the massacre, leaving them with the sole copy of the snuff film. The film makers decide to build their next movie around the brutal film. While auditioning actors, they stumble upon Melissa, an enigmatic actress who seems perfect for the leading role, not least because she’s the spitting image of the snuff film’s main victim. Neither the film, nor Melissa, are entirely what they seem however. Jimmy and Sam find themselves pulled into a paranormal mystery that leads them through the shadowy streets of the city beneath the city and sees them re-enacting an ancient Mesopotamian myth cycle. As they play out the roles of long forgotten gods and goddesses, they’re drawn into the subtle web of a deadly heresy that stretches from the beginnings of civilization to the end of the world as we know it. ©️ Crystal Lake Publishing

After her boyfriend had an affair with her sister, Lani was deeply hurt and, at the advice of her best friend, decided to marry a strange guy as revenge. She married Kane, an ordinary office worker with a handsome appearance who took care of cooking and cleaning at home while she pursued her acting career. Life with Kane was relatively peaceful, and they grew close and sweet, like a genuine couple. However, one day, Lani discovered Kane's true identity as the wealthiest billionaire in the city. Unable to accept this deception, Lani leaves without a word, accepting a role as the lead actress in a movie and moving to another city, cutting off all contact with Kane. At this point, upon realizing Lani's disappearance, Kane felt deep regret and sadness. He relentlessly searched for Lani to explain everything. When he coincidentally ran into Lani on the street, Kane slowly followed her back to the hotel, holding her hand and crying, begging Lani for forgiveness, even kneeling to express his remorse. "Baby, I'm so sorry. You can hit me or scold me if you want, but please don't leave me." Everything happened unexpectedly and was chaotic, so what decision will Lani make?

I am a miserable nurse. During the Halloween season, there was a three day break but I was not given any days off. Upset, I decided to join a game featuring a haunted hospital. There was an old man wrapped in IV tubes chasing after a player. I sprinted forward and shoved him into the chair. After effortlessly jabbing the IV line back in him, I told him off, "It’s just an IV drip. Quit moving around! Do you think you’re in some kind of movie pulling a stunt like that? If you keep moving around, I’ll strap you to the chair!" The old man did a double take before blinking in a flustered manner. "Sorry for causing you trouble, ma'am." At night, children ghosts began to run and laugh wildly in the corridor. I seized each child's hand. "If you’re not going to stay put in the ward, I’ll give you an injection!" Why did I still have to work in a game? I was so tired. The other players cried out, "Clem! That's a ghost. Are you not scared?" I sneered, "Oh, sorry. We wage slaves carry more resentment than any ghost."

Mi novio insistió en escalar de noche la montaña nevada para ver la cascada. Ese mismo día, resbalé y caí desde la cima. Al despertar, descubrí que no solo sufría amnesia, sino que también había perdido una pierna. Incluso mi novio se había convertido en el esposo de mi hermana. De repente, todos me abandonaron. Solo Samuel, mi psicólogo, me guió con paciencia y cuidado. Cuando me propuso matrimonio con flores y un anillo frente a todo el personal médico, creí ver al ángel que había venido a salvarme. Pero seis meses después de casarnos, lo escuché por casualidad hablando con su amigo: —Samuel, parece que la hipnosis de este año ha sido un éxito. Ya ayudaste a Valeria a obtener lo que quería, ¿para qué dar un paso más y casarte con Sofía? —¿Crees que lo deseaba? Es solo por si recupera la memoria y podría hacerle daño a Valeria. Así la vigilo de cerca. —¿Merece la pena hacer tanto por Valeria? Ya antes limpiaste todos sus desastres, ¿y ahora usas a Sofía para eso…? —Haría lo que fuera con tal de ver feliz a Valeria. Samuel apagó el cigarrillo con fuerza y, tras un largo silencio, respondió lentamente: —Además, solo es prestar un vientre… ¡Aprovechar lo inservible!

Cuando yo estaba embarazada de cuatro meses, mi esposo médico me dejó plantada 16 veces cuando íbamos a registrar nuestro matrimonio. La primera vez, su amante, la enfermerita Lucía, se desmayó por la sangre durante una cirugía. Esperé todo el día frente a la oficina de registro. La segunda vez, recibió una llamada de Lucía. Me abandonó en el puente elevado solo para comprarle toallas sanitarias. Cada vez que intentábamos registrar el matrimonio, su amante encontraba una nueva excusa. La última vez, escuché que él estaba enfermo. Corrí al hospital bajo la lluvia torrencial, solo para descubrir que era la Lucía quien estaba enferma. Él permaneció a su lado sin moverse, mientras me mentía descaradamente por teléfono. En ese momento, comencé a odiarlo. Decidí abortar y marcharme. Pero él recorrió medio mundo, persiguiéndome hasta otro país, solo para suplicarme perdón.

Mi prometido, Victor Blackwood, es el Don de la mafia que controla el bajo mundo de todo el país con mano de hierro. Para los demás, él es la personificación del poder. Pero para mí… era el amor hecho hombre. Nunca imaginé el precio de amar a un hombre como él. En el Día de San Valentín preparé sus comidas favoritas y lo esperé en casa. Sin embargo, las horas pasaron, el vino se enfrió… y su silla seguía vacía. Con un mal presentimiento, abrí la red social de Queenie Stone, su «hermana adoptiva», quien había publicado: «Solo bastó que le dijera que me sentía sola… para que viniera enseguida. Incluso, aunque derramé vino sobre él, no se enojó. Victor siempre ha sido así… La familia para él es lo primero, aunque eso signifique dejar a su novia esperando. Nunca me falla. Ojalá nada cambie». En la foto, la camisa de Victor estaba empapada a la altura de la cintura, y el pañuelo de Queenie descansaba de manera peligrosa cerca de su entrepierna… Él ni siquiera se había apartado… sino que solo la miraba con ternura. No hice ningún escándalo. Solo le di «me gusta» a su publicación y luego le envié un simple mensaje: «Terminamos.» Pero como siempre… lo ignoró. Después supe que, al ver mi mensaje, él se limitó a comentar: —Vivienne no puede vivir sin mí. Solo está haciendo un berrinche. Si la ignoro un par de días, volverá arrastrándose. Es fácil de contentar. Lo que él no sabía… era que yo solo era fácil porque lo amaba. Pero ahora que decidí irme, no hay vuelta atrás… No importa lo que haga.
