Karma Goddess

My sister-in-law, Hannah Martinez, was eight months pregnant when someone shoved her to the ground. Due to the heavy bleeding, she was rushed to the hospital. I happened to drive past, but I rolled up my window and pretended I saw nothing, pressing down on the gas pedal. In my previous life, I had immediately taken Hannah to the hospital when I saw her pass out from the blood loss. However, the situation was critical. After the severe bleeding, she developed an amniotic fluid embolism. My wife, Lauren Martinez, was the best obstetrician in the city. I called her, begging her to hurry to the hospital. Yet, she thought I was throwing a tantrum out of jealousy because she was having dinner with her first love, Isaac Poole, and his family. She believed I was using Hannah's emergency to force her to come back. By the time her family finally arrived, Hannah had already died from the failed treatment of the amniotic fluid embolism. Her entire family blamed me for Hannah's death, convinced that I had deliberately caused Lauren to misunderstand and let Hannah die. My brother-in-law, Jacob Turner, who rushed back from out of town, believed their lies. In his overwhelming grief, he hacked me to death with a knife at Hannah's funeral. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Hannah was pushed and started bleeding out.

Sejauh yang bisa kuingat, aku selalu mencintai Rizky Pratama, sahabat terbaik kakak laki-lakiku, satu-satunya bos mafia di Nusatama. Pada malam ulang tahunku yang ke-20, kakakku menjanjikan sebuah kejutan. Aku tidak menyangka kejutan itu adalah Rizky yang sudah mabuk berat dan sangat menggoda untuk disambut dengan ciuman. Satu malam yang ceroboh itu pun menghasilkan satu bayi laki-laki. Rizky akhirnya setuju untuk menikahiku setelah aku melahirkan. Namun pada hari kelahiran Leonardy Pratama, Rizky tidak berkata sepatah kata pun. Dia hanya mengemasi barang-barangnya dan menghilang ke Franzia selama hampir lima tahun. Kemudian dia kembali dengan Alya Tania, cinta pertamanya. Saat Alya melihat Leonardy dan aku, dia langsung dia berlari dan menghilang. Setelah itu, Rizky tak pernah meninggalkan aku. Seolah-olah ia berusaha menjadi pria yang aku butuhkan selama ini, bahwa kami akhirnya akan mendapatkan kesempatan berbahagia. Namun dongeng-dongeng hanyalah kebohongan yang dibungkus dengan kertas cantik. Di hari ulang tahun Leonardy yang ke-6, kami sedang dalam perjalanan menuju tempat makan malam. Tapi rem mobil kami malah tidak berfungsi. Mobil itu pun tergelincir menuju ke jalan raya, dan api mulai membakar mesin. Rizky keluar dari mobil. Dan kemudian dia mengunci pintu. “Kalau bukan karena kamu, Alya masih akan bersamaku. Sekarang, giliranmu yang menderita.” Barulah pada saat itu aku menyadari Rizky tidak pernah mencintaiku. Ketika aku membuka mata kembali, aku telah kembali ke hari ulang tahunku yang ke-20. Rizky masih berada di tempat tidurku, persis seperti di masa lalu. Kali ini, aku tak ragu. Aku langsung berlari. Dan sebelum pergi, aku melakukan hal yang seharusnya kulakukan sejak awal, telepon Alya.

My Alpha and fated mate Dion took his first love to the Moonlight Forest to enjoy the moonlight and obtain the Moon Goddess's blessing on the day of the Moonlight Festival, a day that he could only spend with his mate. I didn't stop him, and instead prepared his luggage for him. Dion was very satisfied with my performance. "With a pup in your womb, you finally learned to behave. You finally look like a Luna." After they left, I immediately had an abortion. In my last life, I had put a silver knife on my belly to stop him from going on a date with his first love. He was forced to stay for his pup. However, his first love was ravaged before getting killed by other werewolves while on her way to the Moonlight Forest alone. Dion didn't pin the blame on me, as if nothing of the sort had happened. However, the moment I had my pup, he then skinned my pup in front of me. Only then did I understand how much hate he had inside of him. He tortured me, and I died in a horrific manner. When I opened my eyes once more, I had been reborn on the day he and his first love was supposed to go to the Moonlight Forest. I had another chance in life, and I secretly started to plot my revenge. He would pay for everything.

I'm accidentally pushed off a cliff when my fiancé and I are enjoying the sunset. I end up with grave injuries. As I drift in and out of consciousness, I hear Eric Bartholomew speaking to a doctor. "Gamma Derrina's injuries aren't that severe, Alpha. She can be treated even without her womb being removed!" "Shut up! Do it because I say it needs to be done. Don't forget that I'm the Alpha here—all you need to do is obey me! Only if Derrina loses her womb can my and Phyllis' pup to become the wolf pack's heir. "Use copious amounts of sedatives on her. I don't want her to wake up on the wedding day. She'll be sad if she sees that the bride isn't her." I open my eyes and look at Eric standing outside the room. He's like a monster with hands that can end lives. I'll make his wish come true since he wants to marry that weak Omega. I make a call. "I agree with the thing you asked me about before." The person on the other end of the line laughs. "The Moon Goddess loves the wise."

Nenekku yang berusia 70 tahun menjual bacang untuk mengumpulkan uang agar bisa membelikan aku tas sekolah. Tetapi, dia dihentikan oleh seorang wartawan cantik di pinggir jalan. Nenek yang baik hati itu berniat memberikan bacang kepadanya, tetapi keesokan harinya nenek itu menjadi viral di media sosial: "Seorang nenek berusia tujuh puluhan menjual bacang beracun di jalanan dan mencoba menyuap wartawan yang membela keadilan."

On the night of my 30th birthday, I waited until the early hours of the morning, but my husband, Theodore Hawk never showed up. Instead, I came across an Instagram post from his childhood sweetheart, Emily Gallagher. [What romantic is not the starry night, it is having you by my side.] In the picture, she was wearing a delicate, sky-blue camisole that revealed just enough to charm and seduce. A man stood close behind her, his hand firmly gripping her waist. The scene was set in the seaside villa that Theodore had gifted her, their figures intimately entwined under the soft glow of the night. Someone had commented beneath the post: [I can’t stand you two being this lovey-dovey all the time! Just get married already!] Emily had responded with a shy-face emoji. I had just liked the post when Theodore, who I had failed to reach all night, blew up my phone with calls. "Are you out of your mind, Camilla? Emi and I grew up together! If we wanted to be together, we would’ve done so long ago! Why are you being so petty?" Looking at how Theodore gently held her in his arms, comforting her, I realized something. Letting go of someone you’ve loved for seven years... can take only a moment.
