My boyfriend is summoned away by a phone call on the day he proposes to me. Once he's gone, his true love forces hard liquor down my throat with everyone watching. "You can drink on Oliver's behalf since you claim he can't drink. You've done this plenty of times over the years, anyway." I've carefully protected Oliver Sansbury for the past four years due to his heart condition. However, all I get in return is a slap to the face. Later, when I make his mother end up behind bars, he falls to his knees by my sickbed. He cries and begs me to marry him. It's too bad I'm about to die.

At the party, my daughter deliberately raises a question to my husband. "Daddy, since Ms. Lloyd is having your baby, does that mean we'll be living with her in the future?" He places the nicely cut steak onto my plate and answers softly, "Your mommy and I made a deal—whoever betrays first will disappear from the other's life. I can't afford for that to happen, darling, so this must stay a secret. Even when the baby is born, I will never let Mommy find out about them." Then, he signs to me, "I'll always love you." My eyes turn red-rimmed without him noticing. Little does he know, my hearing was restored a week ago. He doesn't realize I've learned about the mistress he's been hiding either. And he definitely doesn't know I've secretly bought a ticket to volunteer-teach in the Seru Plateau. All I have to do is wait for the paperwork to clear in seven days. Then, I'll disappear from his life for good.

"No," she deadpanned with annoyance. "I love you," he confessed nearning her petite figure, invading her personal space. Her breath clogged for a second as she was stunned with his confession. Her eyes hardened again when she said," No, you wanna play with me." Pushing him back lightly she looked away. "I need you Ria, trust me. It's no sick game of mine. I am had over heels for you. Please, just give me a chance," he begged her with moist eyes, closing the distance again. Her stance grew guarded as the cruel heart breaker was confessing with vehement emotions stirring in his eyes.

But the truth is, I've given the entire company a nine-day vacation just to celebrate the year-end holidays. Those who are willing to work overtime shifts will be paid three times their usual salaries and given an additional five-thousand-dollar bonus. Sylvie keeps crying on the internet about how all the employees, including her, are forced to trade their lives for money. Thanks to her, the entire Internet keeps bashing me. So, I decide to follow the public opinion by releasing an announcement. "In order to ensure all employees' health, the company's doors shall be locked during the year-end holidays. Do note that the electric supply will be cut off as well. No one is permitted entry into the company." As soon as the announcement is released, the employees who plan on earning extra money in order to pay off their mortgages all rush toward my office in alarm.

Après la mort de sa compagne, l'Alpha Cédric Didier a passé dix ans à m'en vouloir. J'étais la guérisseuse Oméga qu'il n'avait jamais choisie, liée à lui par le devoir, pas par l'amour. J'étais une remplaçante, une cicatrice existait toujours sur un lien que aucun d'entre nous n'avait demandé. Peu importe la profondeur avec laquelle je soignais ses blessures, peu importe le calme avec lequel je restais à ses côtés, tout ce qu'il disait, c'était : « Si tu veux vraiment me faire plaisir, Clara... alors disparais. » Mais quand la mort est arrivée, ce n'est pas moi qui suis tombée. C'est lui. Saignant dans mes bras, Cédric m'a regardée une dernière fois et a murmuré : « Si seulement je ne t'avais jamais rencontrée... » Aux funérailles, sa mère a pleuré. « Il aurait dû être avec Solène. Je n'aurais jamais dû le laisser s'accoupler avec toi. » Le regard de son père m'a transpercée. « Cédric t'a sauvée trois fois. Pourquoi n'était-ce pas toi dans cette tombe ? » Tout le monde regrettait qu'il se soit lié à moi. Même moi, je le regrettais. J'ai été chassée de la meute sans rien... Pas de titre. Pas d'argent. Pas de tanière à moi. Et puis... peut-être que la Déesse de la Lune avait pitié de moi. Elle m'a donné une dernière chance de réécrire le destin. Cette fois, je ne le supplierais pas de m'aimer. Cette fois, je ne l'attacherais pas à la douleur. Cette fois, je couperais le lien avant qu'il ne commence. Je pouvais déjà entendre les rouages du destin tourner, et cette fois, j'agirais en premier.
