Why Did Garp Let Ace Die

I was Claire Vitale, the lost daughter they forgot, the bride my lover betrayed—and the dying girl they failed to notice. For five long years, I lived like a stranger in my own home. The Vitale mansion was a beautiful prison, where every kind word hid a lie, every promise was false, and even Lawrence, the man I was supposed to marry, cared more for Vanessa than for me. None of them saw how my body weakened each day, how the pain grew sharper. They were too busy watching their precious Vanessa. Vanessa—the perfect adopted daughter, was the girl my parents loved more than me. She came into our family when I was lost, and when I returned, I found my place already taken—by her. Just as the illness was quietly taking my future. Now she was gone, and they all pointed fingers at me, convinced I was behind her disappearance. The machine they strapped to my head would pull memories straight from my mind. "Where is she?" my father roared. My mother sobbed in the corner. Lawrence, my fiancé, stood silent—his accusing eyes louder than any shout. But I knew the truth would shock them—how Vanessa hurt me, how she faked accidents, how she made sure no one ever believed me. The machine would show them everything. As the machine began its work, I trembled—from fear and exhaustion. After all these years of being unheard, would they finally see?

On my birthday, my husband, Adrian Grant, suddenly showed up with my adoptive younger sister, Bella Reed, and her child, Tia Reed. When it was time to head out, he naturally arranged for Bella to sit in the front passenger seat. Then he turned to me and said calmly, "Tia gets carsick easily. The back seat is full of stuff. Since you're healthy, just take the bus." Our friends immediately chimed in, one after another, "You're the older sister. Taking care of your niece is only right." Four cars were heading out, yet not one seat was left for me, the supposed main character of the day. I sat on the bus, swallowing my grievance, and saw Adrian and Bella interacting ambiguously in the group chat. They were even talking about topics I knew nothing about. When I opened the newly sent video, nothing except leftovers remained on the table prepared for me. Adrian even treated the birthday cake I had carefully prepared as dessert, spoon-feeding it to Bella and her daughter. Someone finally couldn’t stand it anymore and asked whether this was appropriate. Adrian, who was carefully wiping Bella’s mouth, didn’t even look up. "We’re all family. Julia won’t be angry." At that point, our seven-year marriage came to its end.

Am Jahrestag unserer Paarung hatte ich die Beine um meinen Alpha Adrian geschlungen, während wir uns in einem tiefen Kuss verloren. Meine Fingerspitzen streiften die versteckte Tasche meines Seidenkleides, und meine Hand umklammerte den Schwangerschaftstest, den ich dort verborgen hielt. Ich spürte das zarte Flattern neuen Lebens in mir und plante, ihm diese Überraschung als perfekten Abschluss unseres Abends zu schenken. In diesem Moment sprach Adrians Beta Ethan mit leiser, neckischer Stimme – in der Alten Sprache. „Alpha, diese kleine Schwägerin von dir ... die frisch gereifte Wölfin Zoe. Wie hat sie geschmeckt?“ Adrians tiefes, anzügliches Schmunzeln drang an mein Ohr, leise, doch schneidend klar. Er antwortete in derselben alten Sprache: „Kennst du eine frisch gereifte Chilischote? Heiß, mit ordentlich Biss.“ Seine Hand strich noch immer über meine Taille, doch sein Blick war bereits woanders. „Halt es einfach geheim. Wenn meine Luna davon erfährt, ist alles vorbei.“ Die anderen Betas lachten wissend auf und hoben ihre Gläser – ein stummes Versprechen, sein Geheimnis zu wahren. Doch eine eisige Kälte durchströmte mich, und meine innere Wölfin erstarrte, als wäre sie gestorben. Er wusste nicht, dass ich für meine Forschung zu Werwolf-Traumata die Alte Sprache studiert hatte. Ich verstand jedes einzelne Wort. Ich hielt die Tränen zurück und zwang mich, ungerührt zu wirken, während ich die Fassung bewahrte, die man von einer Luna erwartete. Statt ihn zur Rede zu stellen, sandte ich eine magisch abgeschirmte Nachricht an Älteste Slone von der Vereinigung der Werwolf-Heiler und nahm die Einladung an, die sie mir ausgesprochen hatte. In drei Tagen würde ich mich einem geschützten Werwolf-Rehabilitationsprogramm anschließen – als neue leitende Therapeutin – und für immer aus Adrians Welt verschwinden.

I had been married to Natasha Bates for ten years, and not once did she ever join me for our family's Independence Day cookout. This year, on the night before the celebration, I finally gathered the courage to ask if she wanted to come. She scoffed and said, "What are you, stuck in the past? Who even celebrates the Fourth with a family dinner anymore?" Yet that very evening, I saw a social media post of Natasha with her male best friend, Stanley Rogers. They were quite intimate in the picture, and the caption read: [True happiness is celebrating Independence Day with your bestie!] I commented back: [Hope you two lovebirds make it official soon.] Stanley did not hold back. He messaged me a bunch of intimate photos of the two of them. Then, he added, [You're just a leech living off his wife. What right do you have to question anything about Nattie?] Everyone always thought I was a gold-digger living off Natasha's success. However, they all forgot that I was the sole major shareholder of the company. This time, I’m done staying silent.

“Sign it.” Axton’s calm voice echoed in the room. The kind of calm that made silence deafening. He pushed the divorce papers across the polished desk, his expression cold and composed. The pen rolled until it stopped in front of her hand. Isla’s fingers trembled slightly as she picked it up. The golden ring on her finger glinted under the office light, a cruel reminder of everything that was about to end. Three years of marriage, three years of smiles and unspoken tenderness, now reduced to a signature line. They had never married for love, binded by a contract signed for convenience, destined to expire the moment it no longer served its purpose. And yet somewhere along the way, Isla had forgotten it was only temporary.

Two people from two different backgrounds. Does anyone believe that a man who has both money and power like him at the first meeting fell madly in love with her?

Then, together, overcome our prejudices toward the other side and move towards a long-lasting relationship.

Ashley Black glaubte, sie hätte alles: die perfekte Ehe und den perfekten Ehemann. Bis zu jener Nacht, als er nach Hause kam und ihr Herz in tausend Stücke zerbrach. „Du wirst aus dieser Ehe gehen, wie du hineingekommen bist, nur mit deiner Kleidung. Du wirst keinen Cent bekommen, weder ein Haus noch ein Auto. Unterschreib und verschwinde.“ Ich kämpfte gegen die Tränen an, während ich die Papiere unterschrieb, und als ich ihn ansah, hätte ich fast nach Luft geschnappt, so viel Hass lag in seinem Blick. „An dem Tag, an dem du deinen Fehler erkennst, wird es zu spät sein“, sagte ich emotionslos. Als ich zur Tür ging und gerade hinaustreten wollte, packte mich jemand fest am Arm, sodass ich aufwimmerte. „Warum sollte ich jemanden wie dich, so widerwärtig und hässlich, jemals wieder wollen? Ich bin froh, dass ich dich endlich los bin. Warum sollte ich zu dir zurückkommen, Ash?“ Ich spürte, wie mein Herz in tausend Stücke zersprang, als ich diese verletzenden Worte hörte. Ashley verließ das Haus mit gebrochenem Herzen und schwanger, nachdem er sie vertrieben hatte. Fünf Jahre später erkannte Adrian den Fehler, den er damals begangen hatte, doch die Frage ist: Wird Ashley ihm verzeihen können?
