katangian ni sinong sa kabanata 5

My childhood sweetheart who promised to marry me the moment I graduated proposed to Camille Willow, my sister, during my graduation ceremony. At that moment, Dennis Malcolm, the most eligible and admired bachelor in Blington City's elite circle, stepped forward and confessed his love for me immediately after my childhood sweetheart's proposal was accepted. For five years after our marriage, Dennis showered me with devotion, treating me with such tenderness that it felt as though I were the center of his world. But everything shattered the day I overheard a conversation between him and his close friend. "Dennis, now that Camille's on top, are you really going to keep pretending with Tracy?" "It doesn't matter. I'll never have Camille. Besides, as long as I'm here, she'll never disrupt Camille's happiness," he answered. The paper notes he held dear, each one carefully preserved, revealed a harsh truth. Each one carried her name, accompanied by heartfelt wishes: "May Camille be released from her burdens. May she find peace within herself." "May Camille achieve all she dreams of, and may her heart love freely." "Camille, we were never meant to be together in this life. I can only hope that in another, we will walk side by side." … Five years of devotion shattered in a single moment of clarity. I crafted a false identity and planned an elaborate drowning to vanish without a trace. From this day forward, in this life and all others, we shall never cross paths again.

To love is to feel fear, anger, despise, bliss. To encounter tragedy... To go through countless sadness... Love is a poetry. In the forming clouds, the hotness of the sun, the vastness of the ocean. The silence in the darkness and the rampaging of the demons. Love is in everything... And it's dangerous...

Dalawang taon na ang nakakaraan, pinilit ako ng nanay ko na makipaghiwalay sa boyfriend ko para palitan ang kapatid niya at pakasalan ang kanyang bulag na fiance. Dalawang taon ang nakalipas, bumalik ang paningin ng asawa kong bulag. Pagkatapos, hiniling ng nanay ko na ibalik ko siya sa kapatid ko. Tiningnan ako ng masama ng tatay ko. “Huwag mong kalimutan na fiance ni Rosie si Ethan! Sa tingin mo ba karapatdapat kang maging asawa niya?” Mamamatay na din naman ako. Kay Rosalie na ang posisyon ng pagiging Mrs. Sadler kung gusto niya! Hihintayin ko na karamahin sila kapag patay na ako!

Ang mga magulang ko, ang pinakamayaman na magkasintahan sa bansa, ay sikat na mga pilantropo. Kailangan ko hingin ang permiso nila kung kailangan ko gumastos ng higit pa sa limang dolyar. Sa araw na nadiagnose ako ng terminal cancer, humingi ako ng 100 dolyar, pero sa halip na tulungan ako, sinigawan nila ako ng tatlong oras. “Anong klaseng sakit ang makukuha mo sa edad mo? Kung hihingi ka lang ng pera, galingan mo naman sa palusot mo.” “Alam mo ba na ang 100 dolyar ay kayang suportahan ang mga bata sa naghihirap na mga lugar ng matagal na panahon? Mas may sense pa kausap ang kapatid mo kaysa sa iyo.” Kinaladkad ko ang katawan ko na may sakit pabalik sa maliit na basement. Pero noong dumaan ako sa mall, nakita ko ang mga magulang ko, live sa malaking screen, gumagastos ng malaking yaman para lang rentahan ang Disneyland para sa kapatid ko. Ang isang daang dolyar ay hindi sapat para sa isang round ng chemotherapy. Gusto ko lang bumili ng bagong damit at lisanin ang mundo ng may dignidad.

Pendant trois ans, j’ai attendu de devenir la Luna parfaite pour ma meute et de donner un héritier à l’Alpha. Trois ans de mensonges m’ont transformée en une intruse dans l’amour de quelqu’un d’autre. Trois ans pour souffrir de la mort de mon bébé et chercher vengeance contre l’homme qui a défiguré mon visage et détruit mon utérus. Être capturée par ma propre meute et mourir, ou m’échapper et survivre : c’étaient mes deux seules options. J’ai choisi de me cacher et de vivre. Le Roi Lycan, Alain Turpin était le souverain le plus sanguinaire et impitoyable qui dirigeait les loups-garous d’une main de fer. Je suis devenue sa domestique personnelle, la position la plus dangereuse, où je pouvais perdre la vie à tout moment pour la moindre erreur. Mais personne de mon passé ne me chercherait jamais ici. « Toujours soumise. Ne parle pas, n’écoute pas, ne vois rien, ne dérange pas le Lycan, ou tu mourras. » Des règles simples à suivre. Je pensais bien m’en sortir jusqu’au jour où le Roi m’a fait une offre que je ne pouvais pas refuser. « Tu veux que je sauve ces gens ? Alors rends-toi à moi ce soir. Sois la mienne. Je te désire, et je sais que tu ressens la même chose. Juste une fois, Valérie... Une seule fois. » Mais ce n’était pas qu’une fois. Et la passion s’est transformée en amour. Cet homme froid et indomptable a aussi conquis mon cœur. Cependant, quand le passé revient me hanter et que la vérité sur ma naissance est révélée, je dois faire un choix une fois de plus : fuir le Roi Lycan ou attendre sa clémence. « Je suis désolée, mais cette fois, je ne perdrai pas mes petits à nouveau. Pas même pour toi, Alain. » Je m’appelle Valérie Von Calvet, et ceci est mon histoire d’amour compliquée avec le Roi Lycan.
