The Lot He Never Drew

The Lot He Never Drew

The Rossi mafia family followed an ancestral rule. Before marriage, the heir received one chance each year to draw lots. Drawing a fortunate lot meant he could choose his own spouse and avoid an arranged marriage. Dante Rossi drew an unfortunate lot for five consecutive years, and I, who had been dating him for seven years, never managed to marry him. This year marked the sixth year. I overheard his conversation with Marco Valentino, the Underboss. "Mr. Rossi, you drew a fortunate lot again." Dante's voice carried an unprecedented coldness. "Same as always, switch it to an unfortunate lot." Marco hesitated, then tried to persuade him. "Mr. Rossi, you've switched it for five years straight. Aren't you worried Celia will leave? Celia's the most beautiful woman in Nopales. Half the men in the city are chasing her." Dante said with absolute certainty, "She won't. Celia loves me too much. She won't marry anyone else. "Years ago, Livia's father died saving me. His dying wish was for me to stay by her side for five years. After this year ends, I'll give Celia a grand wedding as compensation." My last shred of hope died after I heard those words. Dante probably did not know that the Rossi family had one final ancestral rule. If the heir failed to draw a fortunate lot six times, he would lose the right to choose his own marriage. Moreover, I would soon be marrying someone else.

The Last of 99 Goodbyes

The Last of 99 Goodbyes

When my appendix bursts, my parents, my brother, and even my fiancé are all too busy celebrating my sister's birthday. I'm outside the operating room, frantically calling every family member I can think of to sign the consent form, but every call is either ignored or hung up on. After hanging up on me, my fiancé, Joel Graham, texts back. "Sophie, stop being dramatic. It's Yvette's 18th birthday today. Whatever it is can wait until after the party." I quietly set my phone down and sign the consent form myself. It's the ninety-ninth time they've chosen Yvette Norton, my sister, over me. This time, I choose not to care. I'll stop letting their favoritism hurt me. Instead, I'll do everything they ask of me without complaint. They'll all think I've finally learned to be obedient, and they'll never realize that I'm preparing to leave them for good.

Dia ingin menikah dengan Arven demi menunaikan wasiat terakhir ibunya. Di kehidupan sebelumnya, aku menentang keras. Pada akhirnya, Arven menolak permintaan sahabat kecilnya, Nyra.

99 Mal im Stich gelassen

99 Mal im Stich gelassen

Als ich einen akuten Blinddarmdurchbruch hatte, waren meine Eltern, mein Bruder und sogar mein Verlobter nur damit beschäftigt, Maries Geburtstag zu feiern. Vor dem OP-Saal rief ich sie unzählige Male an, um jemanden für die Unterschrift unter die Einverständniserklärung zu erreichen. Doch sie lehnten alle brüsk ab. Mein Verlobter Lukas schickte mir nach dem Auflegen eine Nachricht: „Sophie, stell dich nicht so an. Heute ist Maries großer Tag. Alles andere regeln wir, wenn die Feier vorbei ist.“ Ich legte das Handy weg und unterschrieb ruhig selbst die Einverständniserklärung. Das war das neunundneunzigste Mal, dass sie mich wegen Marie im Stich gelassen hatten. Also würde ich sie auch nicht mehr brauchen. Ihre Bevorzugung machte mich nicht mehr traurig. Stattdessen erfüllte ich ihnen jeden Wunsch. Sie dachten alle, ich sei endlich vernünftig geworden. Aber sie ahnten nicht, dass ich für immer gehen würde

A Luna Renascida Vai Embora Para Sempre

A Luna Renascida Vai Embora Para Sempre

Eu mantive um relacionamento por sete anos com o melhor amigo do meu irmão mais velho, o Alfa Alexander Parker. Mas o nosso relacionamento sempre ficou escondido nas sombras. Depois de beber aguardente demais numa noite, Alexander ficou completamente bêbado e me disse: — Willow, a Stella está com um filhote agora. Se ela não tiver um companheiro, os anciãos vão expulsá-la da alcateia. Tudo bem se eu der a ela a posição de Luna por enquanto? Num tom calmo e dócil, respondi: — Tudo bem. Na minha vida anterior, eu não aceitei a sugestão de Alexander. Também insisti em realizar a cerimônia de acasalamento com ele. Enquanto isso, a barriga de Stella Lockhart continuou crescendo com o passar das semanas. No fim, ela já não conseguia mais esconder. Enfurecidos, os anciãos, acabaram expulsando-a da alcateia. Depois que Stella foi embora, Alexander nunca mais voltou para casa, nem me dirigiu uma única palavra. Eu sabia que ele colocava toda a culpa em mim. Algum tempo depois, morri consumida pela culpa e pela depressão. Quando eu estava prestes a fechar os olhos, vi Alexander invadindo meu quarto, alarmado. Stella, que supostamente tinha sido expulsa da alcateia, vinha logo atrás dele, com um filhote nos braços. Foi então que eu finalmente entendi que, apesar de Alexander ter salvado Stella, ele nunca foi o companheiro mais adequado para mim. Agora que renasci, não recusei a sugestão dele. Em vez disso, decidi cortar completamente todos os laços entre nós, para que ele e Stella pudessem viver felizes para sempre.

Before the Bells Could Ring

Before the Bells Could Ring

At the wedding, just as I was about to exchange rings with my fiancée, her conniving boyfriend intentionally pushed his son toward her. Right in front of everyone, the boy looked up with teary eyes and asked, "Mom, why are you marrying this man? Don't you want me and Dad anymore?" My fiancée, who never lied, smiled, took the child's hand, and said, "I was only pretending with this man earlier. Now I am going to marry your father." The banquet hall buzzed with whispers. Everyone expected me to get jealous and blow up. Instead, I said the child came first and calmly handed the ring to the boyfriend sitting below the stage. Seeing how cooperative I was, my fiancée grinned and promised she would give me a healthy baby boy someday as a thank you. However, she seemed to have forgotten that we had not officially tied the knot yet. Truth be told, I had no intention of ever doing so.

When I Walked Away

When I Walked Away

At our wedding, my wife's assistant "accidentally" uploaded the wrong photo. The big screen was supposed to display our wedding portraits. Instead, it was a picture of my wife and him in full wedding attire. Their fingers were laced together, their eyes locked in a soft, intimate gaze, looking every bit like a blissfully happy couple. The entire venue erupted in shocked whispers. The assistant froze in shock, acting like he had no idea why he was in the photo. He started panicking, asking if we should just postpone the ceremony. My wife, however, stayed surprisingly calm. She whispered her solution, “Everyone’s here. Postponing now would be humiliating and, honestly, a bad omen. Beside, most people here don’t even know what the groom looks like. Why don’t we just let him stand in for you?” Our friends were dumbfounded. They all thought I’d explode in anger and jealousy after hearing something so outrageous. Instead, I nodded, saying it was actually a great idea. Seeing how composed I remained, my wife looked pleased with herself. She told me that since we were legally married anyway, she’d make it up to me later with another ceremony. However, she seemed to have forgotten one thing: she had just signed the divorce papers.
