Wonder Ch

Somewhere between staying silent and screaming for help… she existed. Seventeen-year-old Maren has mastered the art of disappearing in plain sight. Haunted by past trauma, locked in a toxic relationship she can't escape, and drowning under the pressure of school and a world that never cared to understand her, she begins to wonder if life is even worth staying for. No one sees her pain—until he does. The new boy, Kade, has his own shadows. He’s blunt, observant, and completely unafraid to call her out—making him an instant enemy. But when he overhears a moment no one was meant to witness, he realizes the truth: the girl everyone overlooks is barely holding on. As Kade steps deeper into her shattered world, their connection becomes a lifeline. But secrets run deeper than he imagined, and when Maren goes missing, no one believes she’s worth finding—except him. Fighting time, silence, and the lies that built her cage, Kade refuses to give up. Because sometimes, saving someone means proving they were never invisible at all. A heartbreaking, haunting, and ultimately hopeful story about survival, truth, and what it really means to be seen.

“And what do you plan to do?” he asked, voice cold and unreadable. “I want revenge. I want them to suffer for everything they’ve done.” A muscle in his jaw ticked. “Revenge, huh? What if I help you?” My breath hitched. “Help me? How?” “You’re broke, right?” His lips curled into a smirk. “What if I give you everything you need to ruin them—money, power, resources—in exchange for one thing?” I swallowed hard. “What…what do you want?” “Marry me.” — Betrayed. Abandoned. Humiliated. Astrid’s world shatters when the people she trusted most stab her in the back. But just as she loses everything, the enigmatic billionaire Damien Starkov offers her a deal that could change everything. A marriage of convenience—one that grants her unlimited resources for her revenge. But as Astrid gets drawn deeper into Damien’s life, she realizes he’s far from just a ruthless businessman. There’s something dark in his past, something dangerous lurking beneath the surface. And the more she uncovers, the more she starts to wonder… Is she making a deal with a savior—or a broken devil?

"How can you miss a spot? Oh you are such a dummy. I can't believe my brother is married to you." Bella rolled her eyes and looked at me like I was trash. "Yea, even I'm surprised you're my wife." Alec stepped in, tall And handsome he was. If only he wasn't always so cold like this. "You're too dumb, all the time letting my mother and sister speak to you like that. I wonder when you'll ever stand up for yourself." "Can we talk, in private?" I said as polite as I could. Alec just looked me with disgust and shrugged. "Well, good night everyone. I'm off to this fancy hotel to have a gooood night!" He said, ignoring me. I hated that he did that, but I just wished I had the boldness to correct him and teach him to treat me right. "I hope you bring home a new girl. This one expired 3 years ago." Lolita said. "Mom, I married her three years ago." Alec said and they all bursted out in laughter.

Era, une jeune étudiante discrète, partage ses journées entre les cours à l’université et son travail dans le petit café familial, un lieu chaleureux qu’elle chérit plus que tout.

No momento do terremoto, meu marido, capitão da equipe de resgate, me deixou para trás e correu para salvar a mulher que amava, Luna Soares. Eu não o impedi. Apenas deixei que ele fosse. Tudo porque, na minha vida passada, diante da mesma escolha, ele me resgatou primeiro, eu, grávida de oito meses. E Luna, por causa do atraso no socorro, foi soterrada nos escombros durante uma réplica e morreu asfixiada. Mais tarde, no dia em que fui dar à luz, ele me levou até o túmulo dela. Assistiu friamente enquanto eu desabava no chão de tanta dor, implorando ajuda. — Talita, está doendo? A dor que a Luna sentiu debaixo dos escombros foi mil vezes pior! Olhei, incrédula, para o homem enlouquecido à minha frente. — No dia do terremoto você estava numa zona segura! Se não tivesse usado a gravidez como chantagem, Luna teria tido a chance de ser salva! — Todo o sofrimento da Luna… eu quero que você sinta com seu próprio corpo! Ele me forçou a ajoelhar e bater a cabeça diante da foto da Luna, enquanto o sangue escorria por entre minhas pernas. Acabei morrendo de hemorragia durante o parto. Quando abri os olhos novamente, era o mesmo dia do terremoto. Desta vez, nem eu nem meu filho vamos esperar por ele.

Je suis revenue à la vie. Cette fois, je n'ai plus empêché mon compagnon de ramener son amie d'enfance enceinte à la maison pour s'occuper d'elle. J'ai même proposé de rompre notre lien d'union, afin de lui laisser librement choisir Élise Richard, celle qu'il a toujours préférée. Je créais volontairement chaque occasion pour qu'ils soient seuls ensemble, tandis que je me retirais en silence. Tout cela parce que, dans ma vie précédente, au moment de mourir, Marc Sien m'en voulait encore d'avoir refusé que son amie d'enfance vienne habiter chez nous pour sa grossesse. Sur le chemin du départ, elle avait perdu son enfant et n'a plus jamais pu avoir d'enfant. Il m'avait dit que, quand je serais morte, il se mettrait avec Élise, qu'il prendrait soin d'elle et réparerait le tort qu'il lui avait causé. Alors, dans cette nouvelle vie, je ne m'y suis plus opposée. J'ai choisi de partir, pour les aider à combler leurs regrets… Mais pourquoi, après mon départ, Marc s'est-il mis à me chercher partout comme un fou, en suppliant mon retour ?
