Traicionada Por El Amor, Salvada Por El Sacrificio

During the New Year's Eve dinner, my pineapple juice was secretly swapped for alcohol. But I had taken cephalosporin earlier on. The doctors used a lot of effort to save me, but my wife, Jennifer Robinson, shielded the person who was responsible behind her. "This matter ends here. Be generous and forgive him. He didn't do it on purpose." I didn't plan on letting this man off so easily. He had an ambiguous relationship with my wife. But Jennifer interrupted me with a frown. "That's enough! He's only a fresh graduate. What's the point of making a fuss? Do you have to ruin the rest of his life to feel satisfied?" I looked at how my wife was protecting him and my heart sank. "Then you two can spend the rest of your lives together."

Carlos is a mature man, arrogant, and very sure of himself. Sara, an immature young girl, brave ... but very troublesome. She is just a big inconvenience to him. He is too overbearing and controlling for her. What is the boundary between respect and tolerance? To what extent can two people so different be able to support each other without mistreating each other? Would you trade your ideals and convictions for someone you don't know and who you can't even trust?

After half a month of nonstop overtime, I secured a contract worth over ten million, pulling the company back from the brink of collapse. My boss, Richard Gray, was overjoyed. At the celebration party, he called me the pillar of the company and announced that he would reward me with a bonus. However, when the end of the month came, and I opened my payslip, I froze. Negative 250 dollars. A negative commission? I actually owed the company 250 dollars? I immediately called the finance department, asking if there was a mistake on my payslip. They replied, "No mistake. This is the cost calculation formula that Mr. Gray personally instructed us to use. He said you'd understand once you saw it." I went straight to Richard for an explanation. He laughed. "The contract that you signed, after factoring in the concessions, upfront resources, and hidden expenses, left the company with a net loss of 150 thousand. Since the loss was due to your personal decisions, you're responsible for five percent. That totals to 7500. "Considering how hard you worked, we deducted it from your base salary first. But your salary wasn't enough, so you still owe the company 250. Don't worry. The company treats its employees well. We'll write that off." Soon after, he awarded 100 thousand dollars to the newly arrived intern. I watched the newcomer, probably connected to Richard, cheerfully treat the entire company to dinner with her bonus, and something inside me just snapped. From that day onward, I did the bare minimum. I clocked in. I clocked out. Nothing more. Later, when a critical project went catastrophically wrong and the company faced a colossal compensation demand, Richard came begging me to fix it. I just smiled and said, "Sorry, Mr. Gray. I've already resigned. If there are any problems, you can ask the intern who got the 100 thousand dollar bonus to handle it."

At the award-giving ceremony of the end-of-the-year gala, my boss, George White, suddenly announces that he will be adding a bonus round on a whim. "This is the annual department evaluation! The department that comes last shall come onto the stage and receive a tiny encouragement from me!" The huge screen lights up at that moment. The sales achievements accumulated by all departments are being shown in a ranking system. The sales department is ranked first. The operations department comes second, and the marketing department gets third place. As for the administrative department, the sales achievements shown on the screen are none. After all, that department has no KPI to achieve at all. George beams at us from the administrative department. "Everyone from the administrative department, come on up and receive your prize!" Two people can be seen carrying a basket of brooms up the stage. Everyone bursts into laughter instantly. "Come now, sweep away your bad luck with the brooms! Try not to come up as the bottom-ranked department again next year!" George personally thrusts the brooms into our hands. Camera flashes go off beneath the stage—people are clearly taking photos of us. The people from the sales department are the ones laughing the hardest. "Finally, the peeps from the administrative department are getting the recognition they deserve!"

J'étais autrefois la princesse chérie de la Meute de la Lune d'Argent, adorée de tous. À l'époque, je suis tombée amoureuse de Karl, l'un des sauvages de la meute. Mais lorsque je me suis ennuyée de notre petite histoire, je l'ai écarté sans hésiter. Des années plus tard, ma meute a été détruite et mes parents ont été tués. Karl, cependant, était devenu l'Alpha d'une nouvelle meute puissante. Il m'a revendiquée, me forçant à devenir sa Luna. Tout le monde disait que j'avais de la chance, mais ils ne connaissaient pas la vérité. Ils ne savaient pas qu'il ramenait chaque nuit différentes louves sur notre territoire. Et à cause de notre lien de compagnon, chaque moment d'intimité entre eux me brûlait l'âme comme un feu ardent. Je n'ai jamais pleuré, je n'ai jamais protesté, j'ai simplement tout enduré en silence. Mais mon silence ne faisait que rendre Karl plus instable. Cette fois-ci, il est allé encore plus loin. Il a mis sa Bêta, Cholé, enceinte. Mais je restais calme. Furieux, Karl m'a projetée contre un mur de pierre rugueux. « Estelle, tu m'aimes ou pas ? » Je pensais que ses accès de colère étaient une manifestation tordue de son amour, qu'il attendait que je craque. Mais ensuite, Cholé et moi commencions à accoucher en même temps. Je l'ai supplié de m'emmener d'abord à l'hôpital de la meute, et je voulais lui dire que je n'avais pas eu le choix lorsque je l'avais rejeté à l'époque. Il m'a serrée dans ses bras, pour me repousser quelques instants plus tard. « Tu vois ? Je savais que tu craquerais. » « Arrête de faire semblant. Tu te prends vraiment pour une princesse hautaine et puissante ? » Il a ignoré mes supplications, ignoré la vie de son propre petit en moi. Il a pris Cholé dans ses bras et est parti sans se retourner. Sa voix froide a résonné dans notre lien mental. « Ne t'inquiète pas, je ne t'abandonne pas. » « Tu mérites de ressentir une fraction de la douleur que j'ai ressentie quand tu m'as rejeté. Savoure-la. »

On the mysterious and vast fantasy continent of Estella, magic and miracles coexist, and ancient families and emerging forces intertwine to create a complex and ever-changing power map.

"Why do you hate me so much, Maan" she asked hiccupping, hitting his chest. "I never said that" he said holding her hands. ____________________________________ "So, my Ita, how does it feels to be Mrs. Dutta," he asked holding her from behind while making eye contact in the mirror. "Best feeling in this world, Mr. Dutta" she replied kissing his cheek. ____________________________________ "I BLOODY ASKED YOU TO DO ONE THING BUT YOU CAN'T EVEN DO THAT!" he shouted slamming the wooden desk with his fists. "I am sorry, sir" she replied with tears welling up in her eyes. ____________________________________ "I will kill that man if I see him near you again" he said dangerously running his index finger from her forehead to neck. "W...why" she asked stammering. "Because you are mine"...
