In the third year I've decided to support my girlfriend, Iris Fulton, by opening a flower shop, she has gone into bankruptcy once again. The first time she went bankrupt, I sold the house my grandma had left for me so that I could clear the debt of 700 thousand dollars. The second time she went bankrupt, I was able to locate the bank passbook Mom had left for me as a wedding gift. That was how I paid back one million and six hundred thousand dollars. The third time Iris has gone bankrupt, however, I can only grip the note with my filthy rich dad's phone number while staring at her lost and dazed expression. At that time, I'm debating whether or not I should call him. But that night, I accidentally notice the chat history on Iris' group chat that's displayed on her tablet. "Hey Iris, how many figures are you going to fill into the sum of the bankruptcy contract that's supposed to be cleared this time?" "Let's put ten million dollars. Otherwise, that flower-selling plaything will be able to clear the debt in one go. It'll make things very boring." "As expected of you, Iris! I heard that the plaything waters flowers in the morning and waters your flower garden at night. You're never tired of him, are you?" I put down Iris' tablet before calling my dad right away. "You want me to take over the family business and marry your student, right? Fine, I'll do it. Get your men to pick me up in three days."

Mi hermana y yo teníamos una fertilidad excepcional, un don especial que nos permitía concebir con facilidad. Ella se casó con un campesino pobre de la aldea y dio a luz cinco hijos varones. La familia prosperó y salió de la miseria. Yo me casé con el hijo del jefe de la aldea, Diego Suárez, pero solo tuve hijas. Atrapado en las ideas feudales que valoran más a los hijos varones, mi esposo me consideró una vergüenza y me mató a golpes junto a mis niñas. Al abrir los ojos de nuevo, había renacido en el día en que la casamentera vino a proponer los matrimonios. Al ver que Diego, contra todo pronóstico, eligió a mi hermana Lucía García, quien tenía una discapacidad en la pierna, entendí: él también había renacido. Creía que al casarse con ella tendría hijos varones, sin saber que él padecía un trastorno genético que le impedía engendrarlos. Señalé al joven estudiante pobre, delgado y silencioso en el rincón, y declaré sin rodeos: —¡Yo me casaré con él!

My husband's ex-girlfriend left behind a cat that could nurse my daughter like a woman. I turned on my camera and livestreamed this horrifying scene. The stream instantly went viral, and people approached me offering high prices for the cat. When I agreed to sell it, my husband went crazy, clutching the cat and screaming that it could not be sold. Even my sister-in-law, who had always doted on me, furiously yelled at me for being brainless. In my previous life, I accidentally discovered the cat in our house nursing my daughter. I was terrified when I saw my daughter's satisfied expression! What made me feel even more horrified was that the cat's chest area had no fur at all. It was smooth and delicate, like a nursing woman's. Moreover, this cat usually either bared its teeth at me or scratched me with its claws. Every night, it slept in my husband's arms. Thinking of all this made my skin crawl, and I immediately decided to throw the cat out. Unexpectedly, my usually gentle and refined husband became incredibly frenzied. "I raised this cat with my own hands. It's no different from my child! If you dare throw away my cat, then we're getting divorced!" My sister-in-law also urged me to keep the cat. She even gave me sleeping pills, claiming I had been under too much stress lately. That night, my daughter died in my arms, and I also died in bed from excessive grief. Only after my death did I learn that the cat was my husband's ex, and my daughter was the medium for her life exchange. Their true purpose was to steal my body. When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day I was just discharged from the hospital.

Sa unang pagkikita pa lamang ay may kung ano nang tumama kay Dave. Isang damdamin na tanging kay Jade lamang niya naramdaman. Love at first sight ba iyon? Hindi siya sigurado. Pero may isang bagay na tiyak: gusto niyang protektahan ang dalaga. At magagawa lang niya iyon kung palagi siyang magiging malapit kay Jade. Isang kontrata ang nagbigay-daan para matupad ang hangaring iyon. Isang kontratang walang bahid ng emosyon. Kaya lang, habang tumatagal at habang mas nakikilala niya si Jade, bakit parang handa siyang magbayad nang kahit gaano kalaki, mahalikan lamang ito? At sa huli, iyon din ang nangyari. O baka mas tama kung sabihing ang nasunod ay ang kagustuhan ng kaniyang puso at hindi ang nakasulat sa kontrata.

After connecting to a call hosted on a treasure-appraisal livestream, I find out that the "Fields of Freedom" stamp my grandpa has left me with is worth 10 million dollars. I've been troubled as to how I should afford my upcoming wedding with my girlfriend, Danielle Dalton. Delighted by the news, I call Danielle to tell her about it. Unexpectedly, Danielle, who's always such a prude about physical contact to the point that she refuses to let me kiss her, turns up on my doorstep that night. She spends the night draining me of my stamina with her skills and body. When I wake up once again, both Danielle and my stamp are gone. I visit Danielle's home to get my stamp back. But her father instantly shoves me out of the door angrily. "We don't welcome you here! Get lost right now!" At first, I thought there was a misunderstanding between us, so I still held back on my rudeness. But when I notice how rude Danielle's father is being to me, I decide to go all out on him. "Sure, I can leave, but you must return the stamp Danielle has stolen from me—" Before I can finish speaking, someone has dumped a bucket of ice-cold water onto my face. It turns out that the culprit is Danielle's mother. As she carries the bucket, she scowls at me, her features completely twisted. "Who the hell did you claim to have stolen your stamp, huh? Don't you dare run your mouth without any proof! I'll definitely sue you, you know!" Having realized how vile Danielle's parents actually are, I can't help but feel a strong hint of relief. Thank goodness I had only shown Danielle a fake copy of the stamp last night.

Diego, heredero Zambrano y mi prometido de conveniencia —eso que llamaban el Príncipe—, mantenía una amante. La consentía tanto que la volvió caprichosa e insufrible. Justo cuando yo comenzaba los trámites para anular el compromiso, de repente vi un torrente de comentarios flotando ante mis ojos: “¿Qué culpa tiene el Príncipe? Solo quiere que le prestes atención.” “¡Nenita, no canceles la boda! Con solo unas lágrimas, él te entregaría hasta la luna.” Giré la cabeza. Afuera, por la ventana, aquella amante, cubierta de joyas de lujo, sonreía radiante mientras se colgaba del brazo de Diego. Él, por su parte, bajó la mirada con indolencia, con una suerte de condescendencia distraída. Sonreí y respondí al mensaje de mi abogado: “Continúe redactando el acuerdo de ruptura del compromiso.”

El día del control prenatal, mi esposo Emilio estaba ocupado en el trabajo, pero su amiga de la infancia, con quien llevaba años de coqueteo, Laura se ofreció a llevarme en auto. En el camino, de pronto giró el volante y el vehículo se estrelló de lleno contra la parte baja de un camión de carga; la carrocería quedó aplastada al instante. No llamé a mi esposo, que era médico de urgencias, sino que marqué al servicio de emergencias y esperé el rescate, solo porque, en mi vida anterior, lo primero que hice fue llamarlo para que me llevara al hospital. Al final, el bebé se salvó, pero Laura murió en el acto por la gran pérdida de sangre. Él decía que no me culpaba, que me recuperara tranquila, incluso me consiguió una habitación individual en el hospital. Pero el día del alta, me llevó a la tumba de Laura, allí, me clavó un cuchillo en el vientre; el bebé murió y yo quedé al borde de la muerte. Sus ojos estaban llenos de un odio encendido, y, ante mis súplicas, solo dijo con frialdad: —¡Si no hubieras girado el volante a propósito, Laura no habría muerto! ¡No creas que por fingir inocencia voy a creerte! Ojo por ojo: ¡quiero que la acompañes en la tumba! ¡El dolor que ella sufrió antes de morir, tú lo vivirás diez veces... cien veces más! Giró el cuchillo con fuerza, una y otra vez, atravesando mi cuerpo. La sangre salpicó sobre la lápida, tiñendo de rojo el nombre de Laura. Cuando abrí los ojos, estaba de vuelta en el lugar del accidente.

Soy Vicky Eaton, una Kindred sin vínculo. Es decir, no tengo una pareja o vínculo de sangre, el único humano del que se puede beber según la ley Kindred.He hecho todo lo posible por cumplir la norma, hasta que me di cuenta de que mi nuevo jefe huele demasiado bien como para resistirme y cumple todos los requisitos para ser mi pareja.Sin embargo, hace tiempo que hice el voto de quedarme sin pareja para toda la eternidad.**Mientras hablaba, me lamió la oreja. Mi corazón volvió a acelerarse. El aroma de su perfume de sangre, mezclado con la fragancia natural de su cuerpo, estimuló cada uno de mis nervios. Me besó el cuello. Gemí contra sus caricias mientras me quitaba la ropa por tercera vez en menos de doce horas.—Hagas lo que hagas... —le dije sin aliento—: No pares. Mis palabras le golpearon con fuerza y sus movimientos se intensificaron. De repente, se separó y giró el cuello hacia mí, revelando su gloriosa piel.Me quedé helada.¿Debía mantenerme fiel a mi pasado o dar un salto de fe y caer en el mundo del Vínculo de Sangre?
