Vengeance Incarnate

« Tout va bien, chérie. » C’est ce que Steven lui répète depuis des mois. Mais ce soir, lors de leur fête d’anniversaire de mariage, Shirley ne peut s’empêcher de sentir que quelque chose cloche. Son mari, autrefois si présent, paraît désormais distant. Ses regards fuyants, ses sourires forcés… et ce message qu’il a tenté de dissimuler à tout prix. « On ne peut pas continuer comme ça. Tu dois lui dire la vérité. » Le texte s’affiche sur l’écran de son téléphone, et Shirley sent son monde vaciller. Sept ans de mariage, une vie en apparence parfaite : une maison impeccable, une fille adorable, un mari aimant… du moins le croyait-elle. Mais derrière les portes closes de leur foyer, les mensonges s’accumulent. Shirley, ancienne prodige de NYU qui a tout sacrifié pour sa famille, s’apprête à affronter une vérité capable de tout faire voler en éclats. Trahisons, secrets enfouis, choix impossibles… Shirley est projetée dans un labyrinthe de tromperies où chaque révélation la rapproche d’une décision déchirante : rester et pardonner… ou tout risquer pour se retrouver elle-même. « Parfois, la vérité ne libère pas. Elle brise. »

Résumé : Il m’a tout pris. Et je vais tout lui reprendre. Quand j’avais huit ans, Antonio Guerero a fait exploser mon monde à coups de balles et de rires. Il a violé ma mère sous les yeux de mon père impuissant, puis les a exécutés l’un après l’autre. Ma sœur Doriane a subi le même sort, fauchée dans son innocence. Moi, j’étais cachée sous la table. Paralysée. Spectatrice impuissante de l’horreur. Depuis ce jour, je ne vis plus. Je survis. Dix-huit ans à nourrir la colère, à former ma haine. Dix-huit ans à me forger une nouvelle identité. Mon nom est Layanne Williams, j’ai 26 ans, et je suis devenue l’une des meilleures Bodyguards de Mexico. Recueillie par Lys Taylor, une femme brisée elle aussi par Guerero, j’ai appris à me battre, à tuer, à survivre. Elle a fait de moi une arme. Et aujourd’hui, cette arme est prête à frapper. Antonio Guerero est devenu un homme puissant : ministre influent, chef d’entreprise intouchable, père de famille aimé. Mais il a oublié une chose. Moi. Il m’a volé mon passé. Je vais lui arracher son présent. Sa famille. Son pouvoir. Sa vie. Je suis sa fin.

It all started when my sister made an offhand remark while sponsoring a poor student. She told him it was a coincidence that we were born on the same day, at the exact hour too. That comment made him convince himself that he was the real heir, that we were switched at birth. Soon after, he showed up with two thugs, kidnapped me, and planned to kill me to reclaim his life. I called my fiancée for help in desperation. Instead of saving me, she told me impatiently that I deserved to die for stealing his life. Her friend showed up to save me, but neither of us made it out alive after I was pushed into the river. I was back on the day when I was kidnapped when I opened my eyes again. When the poor student laughed and told me to pick someone to leave my last words to, I did not hesitate to call my sister. Their fates were sealed, with another chance at life, I would make sure to make them pay, and show them who the real heir was.

Cassie pensait que le mariage était pour toujours — jusqu'à ce que douze ans de sacrifice se soldent par une trahison, des abus et la perte cruelle de sa fille. Brisée et abandonnée, elle ne jura plus que d’une chose : Alexandre, son ex-mari, regretterait chaque blessure qu’il avait infligée à son âme. Mais lorsque le destin la met face à face avec celui qu’Alexandre déteste le plus — son impitoyable rival — Cassie entrevoit une chance non seulement de survivre, mais de se venger. Ce qui commence comme une alliance dangereuse se transforme rapidement en quelque chose de plus profond : passion, pouvoir et un amour qui défie le passé. Désormais, Cassie ne se bat plus seulement pour son cœur brisé — elle saisit l’opportunité de renaître, de faire payer Alexandre et de construire un avenir avec l’homme qui n’aurait jamais dû être le sien.

Le premier amour de mon mari a été brûlée par de l'eau bouillante, et pour me punir, il m'a enfermée dans un cuiseur à vapeur à mi-hauteur, avec le feu réglé au maximum. « Tu dois subir mille fois la douleur que Pauline a endurée ! » J'étais enfermée dans cet espace étroit, je respirais difficilement, mon corps brûlait, et je lui ai crié en pleurant : « Je vais vraiment mourir ! » Mais il est parti sans se retourner, tenant son premier amour dans ses bras. « Ne t'inquiète pas, tu ne mourras pas. C'est la seule façon pour toi de comprendre la souffrance de Pauline ! » J'ai hurlé de désespoir dans le cuiseur, l'eau bouillante sous le panier s'est mise à éclabousser mon corps, et ma voix s'est peu à peu éteinte. Il est tout de suite parti en voyage à l'étranger avec son premier amour, et ce n'était qu'une semaine plus tard, en rentrant, qu'il s'est soudain souvenu de moi. « Cette garce a sûrement compris sa faute, sortez-la de là ! » Mais il ne savait pas que, dans le cuiseur arrêté par le manque d'eau, mon cadavre était déjà couvert de vers.

“I, Siege Wong, reject you, Celestina Villarama, to be my mate,” he declared with a cold, death glare.

She hid every inch of her vulnerability in order to survive the living hell. Siege Wong can sense Celestina’s bloodlust even from afar after rejecting her.

What the two didn’t realize was the existence of the moon goddess, Sarina’s curse upon them; to not sense each other’s wolf, but able to feel the necessity of luscious nights together. How will they find their way back to each other? Will there be a chance for the curse to be invalidated? What challenge awaits these two pure souls who were unfortunate in love?
