Wonder Ch

For a decade, my world had been measured in laundry cycles, grocery lists, and the ever-growing pile of dishes in the sink. I was elbow-deep in soapy water, scrubbing the remnants of another family meal, when it happened. A sudden, silent cascade of text flickered at the edge of my vision, like subtitles for a movie only I could see: [Gosh, the heroine is so tragic. Her husband's entire family has been feeding on her luck like parasites!] [Her husband stole her graduate school admission and her career!] [The in-laws are literally siphoning her health away. No wonder she's always sick.] [And the sister-in-law took her "romance" stat! No wonder her love life is a desert.] [Heads up! Her husband's about to give her another "gift." Let's see how much more he takes from her this time.] My hands, clutching a greasy plate, froze. Right on cue, my husband, Tristan, sauntered into the kitchen. A smug, self-satisfied smile was plastered on his face as he took my wet hand. He slid a flimsy, garishly colored plastic bracelet onto my wrist. "Look what I got for you, sweetheart," he announced, his voice dripping with pride. "I made a special trip after work. Found it at the dollar store. It's romantic and economical, just like you always say you want. You love it, don't you?"

Depois de ser empurrada escada abaixo pela queridinha do meu marido, morri de parto no canto da escada do hospital particular da família Moreira. Antes de morrer, meu filho de seis anos chorou, implorando para que seu pai me salvasse. Na primeira vez, Davi Moreira apenas riu com desprezo: — Sua mãe ficou esperta, hein? Usando a criança para bancar a coitadinha e me enganar. E, dito isso, afastou a mão do menino sem nenhuma piedade e foi embora. Na segunda vez, meu filho disse que eu não parava de sangrar. Davi respondeu com impaciência no rosto: — Que exagero... Foi só um aborto espontâneo. Nada demais. Ela que gosta de drama! Depois de expulsar o menino, ele ainda ordenou aos médicos que nnguém deve cuidar de mim. — A culpa é minha por tê-la mimado demais. Sem sofrer, ela nunca vai aprender. Na última vez, meu filho se ajoelhou diante da amante dele, batendo a cabeça no chão, suplicando por mim. Davi explodiu de raiva e mandou os seguranças jogarem o menino, todo machucado, para fora do quarto, enquanto todos riam dele. — Se ousar incomodar a recuperação da Marina mais uma vez, mando sua mãe embora da família Moreira e você nunca mais vai vê-la! Meu filho rastejou até mim, deixando um rastro de sangue no chão. Dessa vez, você conseguiu. Nossos corpos estão frios. Nunca mais nos verá nesta vida.

I can feel the heat of my predator’s breath on my neck. For him I will never be just a memory. I’ll always be a goal, always the thing that lies ahead just out of reach. If I have anything to do with it, that’s where I’ll remain. But I know his hunger, his patience, his relentlessness. His heart beats once for every ten times mine does. And I’m so tired now. I wonder here in the frigid cold if the chase will end tonight and which of us will be dead, really dead, when it’s done.

« Mon chéri ! » lâchai-je très fort. Toutes les têtes se tournèrent dans ma direction, et mes yeux s’écarquillèrent comme ceux d’un cerf pris dans les phares. La honte m’engloutit, et j’eus envie de disparaître dans la nature. Daphne se précipita vers moi. Elle m’attrapa le bras et se pencha vers mon oreille. « Pourquoi l’as-tu appelé ton chéri ? » chuchota-t-elle. « Je… je… je le connais, » répondis-je à voix haute. « Tu connais le Roi ? » demanda l’une des filles dans la foule. Je tournai la tête vers le bel inconnu. Je l’observai de plus près et commençai à remarquer des détails que j’avais négligés auparavant. La chaise sur laquelle il était assis — elle semblait petite, mais elle était en or. Ses vêtements somptueux et sa posture — il avait une allure majestueuse. « Il… il est le Roi ? » balbutiai-je à voix basse. « Oui, c’est le Roi, » répondit Daphne. Je tirai Daphne un peu plus près de moi. « Tu veux dire que c’est le Roi des Bêtes ? » « Oui, » répondit-elle. Je me rappelai alors comment l’homme en uniforme s’était adressé à lui plus tôt — « Votre Majesté ». Je me rappelai aussi ses paroles dans la Forêt de la Sorcellerie — les apparences sont trompeuses. C’est fini. Mes jambes devinrent soudainement molles, et je me sentis tomber au sol, aussitôt engloutie par l’abîme des ténèbres.
