Karma

Leo, my mate, wanted to spend Valentine's Day with Cheryl, his first love, on the night Victor and Vera, his parents, were abducted. But this time, instead of stopping him, I contacted the Werewolf Enforcement Bureau to help. After all, when I tried to stop him in the last life, Cheryl ended up dying a horrific death, her heart gouged out by the Feral Rogues, a group of werewolf gangsters. "You killed her! Cheryl wouldn't have died if it weren't for you!" Without hesitation, Leo threw me into a cave where a pack of hungry wolves tore through my body, along with the child I was about to bring into the world. "You don't deserve to live after what you've done… I'm going to stand here and watch you endure all the pain she felt as she died!" Surprisingly, rather than staying dead, I woke up on the exact day when Victor and Vera were abducted once more…

Ibuku adalah seseorang dengan pemikiran konservatif. Demi mempertahankan kesucianku, dia sengaja memesan set bodysuit ketat untuk membungkus tubuhku. Lantaran takut aku akan diam-diam membukanya di sekolah, dia bahkan mengikatnya dengan lima karet gelang dengan keadaan disimpul mati. Hanya saja, bahan pakaian ini terlalu kasar. Suatu bagian di tubuhku tergesek hingga terasa sangat gatal. Jadi, sejak kecil aku pun sudah bisa memuaskan diriku sendiri. Perlahan-lahan, cara ini sudah tidak ampuh lagi. Pada akhirnya, aku sampai ke tahap tidak bisa duduk dan berdiri dengan tenang. Aku menangis mengatakan kepada ibuku bahwa aku sakit, berharap dia tidak memaksaku untuk mengenakan pakaian ini lagi. Aku juga ingin dia membawaku berobat. Alhasil, ibuku hanya memarahiku. Dia mengatakan aku ingin mencoba untuk berhubungan. Demi meredakannya, aku mulai memasukkan banyak barang besar di dalam pakaian. Saat aku dewasa, ibuku meninggal akibat kecelakaan mobil. Akhirnya aku juga bisa terlepas dari pakaian sialan itu. Anehnya, setelah aku melepaskannya, aku bukannya merasa nyaman, malah merasa semakin tidak nyaman.

Demi menyelamatkan cinta lamanya, Johansen membeli jenazah perempuan yang tidak utuh dari pasar gelap. Dia sendiri yang mengambil ginjal dari tubuh jenazah itu dan memberikannya kepada cinta lamanya. Untuk menghindari pengejaran dari polisi, dia membuang jenazah itu ke dalam kolam yang berisi cairan asam untuk menghancurkan bukti. Hanya saja, dia tidak tahu bahwa pemilik tubuh tersebut adalah aku.

Saat aku pergi ke rumah sakit untuk memeriksa apakah percobaan bayi tabung keempatku berhasil, aku melihat Erwin Sentosa yang katanya sedang dinas luar kota, dengan hati-hati menopang seorang gadis muda dan cantik keluar dari departemen kebidanan. Perut gadis itu membesar, tampak sudah hampir melahirkan. Erwin hanya terlihat panik sesaat, lalu segera melindungi gadis itu di belakang tubuhnya. “Jennie, Keluarga Sentosa butuh seorang anak untuk meneruskan garis keturunan. Setelah anak ini lahir, kita akan kembali seperti dulu.” Nada suaranya yang tegas terdengar jelas di telingaku. Aku tersenyum dan mengangguk menyetujuinya. Di tengah tatapan terkejutnya, aku diam-diam menyembunyikan hasil pemeriksaanku. Di hari gadis itu melahirkan, aku meninggalkan surat perceraian… dan pergi dari hidupnya untuk selamanya.

My best friend, Sienna Monroe, who always swears she'll never marry, goes with me to the fertility clinic and suddenly snatches away the donor profile I choose. That's when I know she has come back to life too. In my previous life, I wanted a mixed-race baby, so I chose the IVF route. Sienna mocked me, saying I'd just be raising someone else's child. But two weeks later, I was taken to the royal palace of Valoria. It turned out the donor I picked was none other than the Prince of Valoria, a man of eight national lineages. He not only insisted on marrying me as his princess but also promised that our child would inherit the throne. The baby and I were cherished by the entire royal family, so much so that the jewels they draped over me nearly bent my back. Meanwhile, Sienna flaunted her extreme feminist stance and offended business partners. In the end, she was fired and blacklisted across the industry. Sienna spent all her savings on a plane ticket to attend my party, where I would introduce my baby to everyone. But when I went to welcome her, she crushed my son to death in her hands and splashed concentrated acid on me. "You don't deserve such good fortune! You worthless witch!" But when I opened my eyes again, I had gone back to the day I asked her to go with me to the fertility clinic.

My Alpha mate thought I didn't know he had two half-breed Omega pups with his Omega mistress, but I had discovered his secret long ago. I threatened him to break up with his mistress, otherwise I would hide their child and make him regret it forever. But I had done absolutely nothing, their pups disappeared. He locked me in a silver cage and even made me watch my son being abused to interrogate me about the whereabouts of their pups. But when my son really died, I completely gave up and left. The powerful Alpha collapsed.

An dem Tag, an dem ich unsere Gefährtenregistrierung beantragen wollte, ließ mein Freund Ogg mich vor dem Büro für Wolfsangelegenheiten hinauswerfen. Dann betrat er es an der Seite seiner Kindheitsliebe Hailey. Er sah mich fassungslos am Boden sitzen, ohne mit der Wimper zu zucken. „Haileys Kind braucht den Status im A-Rudel. Sobald wir die Gefährtenregistrierung aufgelöst haben, werde ich dich heiraten.“ Alle dachten, ich als treue Törin würde noch einen weiteren Monat willenlos auf ihn warten. Schließlich hatte ich bereits sieben Jahre auf ihn gewartet. Doch in jener Nacht tat ich etwas Unerwartetes: Ich willigte in die von meinen Eltern arrangierte Ehe ein und reiste stillschweigend zum L-Rudel ab. Ich verschwand vollständig aus seiner Welt. Drei Jahre später kehrte ich in mein altes Territorium zurück, um meine Familie zu besuchen. Mein Gefährte, inzwischen der Lykan-Vorsitzende, hatte eine dringende Ratssitzung. Daher schickte er einen Untergebenen, um mich vom Flughafen abzuholen. Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass ich dort Ogg wiedersehen würde. Sein Blick fiel sofort auf das Armband an meinem Handgelenk. „Ist das nicht diese billige Fälschung des Armbands, für das der Lykan-Vorsitzende Raven zwei Millionen Dollar für seine Gefährtin ersteigert hat? Dass du nach all den Jahren so oberflächlich geworden bist…“ „Jetzt ist aber genug mit dem Theater. Komm zurück. Haileys Kind ist jetzt im Schulalter, also kümmerst du dich um den Schulweg.“ Ich strich mit den Fingern über das Armband an meinem Handgelenk. Er hatte keine Ahnung, dass es das billigste unter all den Armbändern war, die Raven mir geschenkt hatte.

My mother-in-law could not understand me. Before my business trip, I repeatedly told her not to touch anything in my study, but she mixed up the contract I needed. As a result, I lost a million-dollar order and was fired from my company. To make up for her mistake, she promised she would take care of my child and help me find another job. I froze my milk, labeled everything with notes, and gave her detailed instructions on timing and measurements. However, when my baby ended up in the hospital, I found out that she had thrown out all the milk and fed my baby expired formula instead. Even worse, she fed my baby peanuts behind my back, causing my baby to suffocate and die. Afterward, she wailed, "That was my granddaughter! How could I not care? If I could, I'd die with her..." My husband slapped me, shouting, "My mom worked so hard to take care of the child, and you want to drive her to her death? She's an old woman. It's not easy for her!" My sister-in-law came over too, calling me ungrateful and blaming me for treating an elderly woman badly. She claimed I deserved to be childless and alone. However, they did not know how many times I had stopped my mother-in-law from causing trouble and harm to them. I was driven to depression by them and eventually sent to a mental institution, where I was tortured to death. If I had the chance to do it again, I would protect my child and myself and stop preventing my mother-in-law from causing chaos for others. I would watch her bring equal destruction to each one of them!

"Aku sudah membayarmu, jadi kamu adalah milikku. Mau aku menciummu ataupun berbuat lebih dari itu, kamu tak berhak menolaknya," tekanku pada Yumna yang wajahnya tampak merah padam. Alina hanya diam, berdiri di pojok lift dengan menatap ke arah lain. Ya, dia selalu tahu diri bagaimana harus bersikap. "Ya aku tahu! Apa perlu Anda mengul9angnya lagi dan lagi?!" Dia masih terus bicara. Merasa muak, aku mendekat dan kembali mengulang perbuatan yang sangat dibencinya, untuk menutup mulut Yumna. Sementara Alina jadi salah tingkah dan membalik badan melihat kami.
