Love, As Fleeting as the Breeze

Love, As Fleeting as the Breeze

"Hi there, I'd like to emigrate." Christina stood at the counter and handed over the neatly prepared documents to the clerk on the other side of the glass. The clerk quickly stamped each page. The red ink spread like tiny ripples on still water. Then, without looking up, he pulled out another form and passed it back to her. "Ma'am, your paperwork will be processed in fifteen days." Christina nodded, turned on her heel, and headed for the exit. But before she could step outside, whispers trailed after her. "Did I see that right? Mrs. Waldorf is applying for emigration? Did she have a squabble with Mr. Waldorf?" "Even if they argued, would it go this far? Mr. Waldorf practically worships her. What could possibly make her leave so decisively?" "Exactly. Five years ago, their wedding was the event of the century. Even someone like me, who barely goes online, heard about it. And three years ago, after her car accident, the blood bank ran out of stock. Mr. Waldorf ignored everyone's objections and nearly drained himself to save her. Then, just last year, when she disappeared for an hour, he mobilized every media outlet worldwide to find her. Now she's leaving without a word—won't that drive him insane?" The murmurs swirled and lingered, but Christina only smiled faintly. Her expression was calm, but her eyes darkened with a bitterness that deepened with every step. Yes, she thought. Everyone knew just how much Lucien Waldorf loved her.

Eternal Dawn, Fleeting Dusk

Eternal Dawn, Fleeting Dusk

"Mrs. Gardner, are you sure you want to hire our team to stage a fire and fake your death in ten days?" Camellia Shaw paused for a moment. Just as she was about to reply to the message, a video call suddenly popped up. "Camellia, look! Andres is spending a fortune on you again!" The video was of an auction in progress. At the front, a man of striking elegance and charm was decisively bidding on several antique collectibles worth hundreds of millions. The crowd was already abuzz with excitement. "Mr. Gardner is so good to his wife! He bought all these antiques just to make her smile!" "$400 million is nothing! I heard Mr. Gardner even built her a private estate and named it Eterna Haven. Just the name alone is proof of how much he loves her." A wealthy businessman nearby sneered. "It's all for show. Who knows what he's really like behind closed doors?" That comment immediately sparked a wave of backlash. Many argued back, talking about how devoted Andres Gardner was to his wife. As she listened to their murmurs, Camellia forced a bitter smile.

My Daughter's Work Won an Award, but the Credit Went to a Classmate

My Daughter's Work Won an Award, but the Credit Went to a Classmate

To encourage overall development, the kindergarten had asked each student to create a hand-drawn poster. My daughter Holly refused my help and insisted on doing it all on her own. Little did I know, most of the other children had their parents do the artwork for them. In comparison, Holly's delicate strokes were quickly dismissed. Not only was her work discarded into the trash, but her teacher also called her out in the parent group, criticizing her for being careless with the assignment. As I racked my brain trying to figure out how to help Holly regain her confidence in drawing, I was surprised to see Holly's artwork among the winning entries in the state-level children's art competition. But the signature wasn't hers—it belonged to another student from her class.

Der Sarg, den er aus Liebe baute

Der Sarg, den er aus Liebe baute

Ich war eine Werwölfin, im achten Monat schwanger mit dem Hybridkind meines Vampir-Gefährten. Als die Wehen einsetzten, sperrte mein Gefährte, Justin, mich in einen eisigen Sarg, in den Runen eingraviert waren, die eine Geburt unterdrücken sollten. Ich schrie. Ich flehte ihn an. Er sagte nur: „Warte.“ Doch all das geschah für seine Jugendliebe. Isolde. Die reinblütige Vampirin benutzte dunkle Blutmagie, um seinen reinblütigen Erben auszutragen – ohne je mit ihm geschlafen zu haben. Das erste Vampirkind seit tausend Jahren erhielt den ultimativen Segen des Ursprungs. Es reinigte die Blutlinie und brach einen Fluch, der seit Generationen bestand. „Diese Ehre gehört Isoldes Kind“, sagte Justin, seine Stimme kalt wie Eis. „Du hast bereits meine Liebe, Gracie. Dieser Sarg sorgt nur dafür, dass du nach ihr gebärst.“ Die Schmerzen der Wehen rissen durch meinen Körper. Ich flehte ihn an, mich zum Blutspring-Heiligtum zu bringen. Er beugte sich zu mir, seine kalten Finger packten mein Kinn. „Hör auf mit dem Schauspiel. Ich hätte es früher erkennen müssen. Du hast mich nie geliebt. In der Werwolfwelt bist du eine Außenseiterin. Du willst nur meine Macht und meinen Titel.“ „Du bist so verzweifelt, dass du unser Kind mit deinen wilden Wolfstricks gefährdest, nur um den Segen eines Reinbluts zu ruinieren… Du bist Gift.“ Tränen liefen über mein Gesicht. Ich zitterte, meine Stimme zerbrach. „Das Baby kommt – ich kann es nicht aufhalten. Bitte… ich schwöre einen Bluteid. Mir ist der Segen egal. Ich will nur dich!“ Er schnaubte verächtlich, ein Hauch von verletztem Verrat lag in seinen Augen. „Wenn du mich geliebt hättest, wärst du nicht zu meiner Mutter gegangen. Du hättest ihr nicht den Kopf gegen Isolde verdreht.“ „Ich komme zurück, sobald sie den Segen erhalten hat. Schließlich ist das Kind, das du trägst, auch meines.“ Er hielt draußen Wache vor dem Heiligtum, in dem Isoldes Ritual stattfand. Er schenkte mir keinen weiteren Gedanken. Nicht, bis er sah, wie der Segen Isolde wie eine Krone aus Licht umgab. Er befahl seinem Blutsklaven, mich freizulassen. Doch dessen Stimme zitterte vor Angst. „Mein Lord… Gracie und das Kind… ihre Lebenszeichen… sind verschwunden.“ In diesem Moment zerbrach Justins Welt.

Stole My Share? I'm Taking the Secret Recipe and Running

I've invested in my cousin, Jack Glenwood's farm. His net profit is more than four million dollars per year. On the day I'm supposed to receive my bonus, Jack tears the contract stating that I get a 55% profit share right in front of my family. After that, he transfers 40 thousand dollars to me. He even has the audacity to pat me on the shoulder with a smile on his face. "Noah, you never did anything throughout the year. Since I'm giving you 40 thousand dollars, that means I'm treating you well, right?" I just smile as I look at Jack's greedy and despicable expression. Then, I accept the 40 thousand dollars without saying anything. The next day, I cut off the secret formula to the farm's feed and travel overseas to carry out a new round of investments. This time, I want to see how Jack will fare without my secret formula.

Les larmes de la vérité

Les larmes de la vérité

Ma belle-mère a eu un accident de voiture et est entrée en salle d'urgence. J'ai passé plus de vingt appels à mon mari qui est avocat avant qu'il ne réponde. « Qu'est-ce que tu fais encore ? Camille a eu un problème, je l'ai aidée. Arrête de faire des histoires. » J'ai retenu mes larmes et je lui ai dit que maman avait eu un accident et que j'avais besoin de cent mille euros. Mais il a cru son premier amour et m'a répondu méchamment : « En quoi l'accident de ta mère me concerne ? N'essaie pas de me soutirer de l'argent pour ta famille. Laisse-moi tranquille, je suis occupé. » Il a raccroché brutalement et ma belle-mère n'a pas survécu à l'opération. Mais trois jours plus tard, au tribunal, j'ai vu mon mari plaider éloquemment en faveur de son pemier amour, accusée de conduite en état d'ivresse. Grâce à son éloquence, il a fait acquitter son ex en invoquant un manque de preuves. J'ai été anéantie et je lui ai demandé le divorce dès la fin de l'audience. Mais il a paniqué. « Ma mère t'a toujours bien traitée ! Si tu divorces, elle sera triste ! » J'ai éclaté de rire froidement et je lui ai jeté à la figure les factures de l'hôpital et le certificat de décès. Idiot, il ne savait même pas encore qu'il n'avait plus de mère.
