Karma

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.

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 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.

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.

"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.

My grandfather is a nationally renowned inheritor of an intangible cultural heritage. Today, I'm supposed to attend a grand ceremony as his rightful successor. However, when I arrive, I see my father's adoptive daughter already standing on the stage. She's dressed to the nines. She holds an award and is giving a thank-you speech, looking moved. In the past, I would've left without saying anything or speaking up for myself. Too bad for her that I'd been reborn. The discrepancy between our statuses is so large that we're basically from different worlds. Yet she has the nerve to claim to be my grandfather's successor and put on a show with what is supposed to be my family's.

My husband is a rock climbing route setter. It's our wedding anniversary today, but he brings his female best friend with him on an adventure to discover uncharted territory. It comes about because his female best friend says life is so boring. We're trapped in the mountains when we encounter extreme weather, and the rescue helicopter can only take two people with them. They climb up the ladder deftly, leaving me to slowly grow colder in the rain. I shout his name with all my strength. "I have a heart condition! I'll die if I don't get to the hospital soon!" He throws a rope down at me without even sparing me a glance. "Luna has menstrual cramps—she never says she's in pain. You, on the other hand, are only good at acting. Think of a way to get down yourself." What he doesn't know is that his "good friend" has already sliced the rope he threw to me.

My husband sends me a photo of our obedient daughter holding a plate of food. He writes, "Thanks to my patient guidance, our sweetheart has finally made her first dish! We're waiting for you to come home and taste it!" The exhaustion I feel from work is swept away when I see that. No one expects that I'll reach home half an hour later and kill him.

After being reincarnated as the villain in a story where everyone doted on the heroine, the system appeared. It told me that if I could win over any one of the male leads, I would regain a healthy body and return to my original world. But I failed to win over any of them. There was my adoptive brother, the fake heir, who grew up with me. My rebellious high school deskmate, the real heir, who became a boxer. And my childhood sweetheart, the genius surgeon. Even my own son, whom I carried for ten months. Without exception, they all fell in love with that cold, stubborn damsel while growing to deeply despise me. The system sighed and told me that if I could die at the hands of any one of the male leads, I would be able to see my parents in the original world. In the end, I used every method possible and was finally killed by them, with their own hands. But why did they all go mad afterward?
