Rai Zero

At the contract-signing meeting, a major client casually asks our new technician if she can handle her alcohol. She immediately pours a glass of red wine over his head and says coolly, "This sort of socializing is a bad habit. I'm putting an end to it." Leon Langley, a top client who brings the company 300 million dollars in annual revenue, flies into a rage and tears up the contract on the spot. As the project lead, I bend over backward to apologize and drink with Mr. Langley until I'm hospitalized with gastric bleeding—just to salvage the deal. When I report the incident to my boss, he scolds me instead. "As the person in charge, you nearly ruined the project. Forget the three-million-dollar commission we planned to give you. Consider this a warning." After that, I put Hannah Storrie's name on the department's downsizing review list. She sneers. "I'm a top talent the boss poached at great expense. I'm not some cheap hostess who survives by smiling and drinking like you. "Firing me would be throwing the company down the drain. When that happens, you'll be begging me to come back." I ignore her. However, when the review period ends, the name on the layoff list turns out to be mine. My boss seizes the opportunity to announce that Hannah will replace me as the new sales director. "Clients are extremely important to us. You don't seriously think you're capable of landing them, do you? "Hannah's is more qualified, more tech-savvy, and prettier than you. She's clearly the better choice." I simply smile, turn around, and dial a number.

Instead of my family’s private jet to the warrior camp, I chose a packed train—all for my mate, Alpha Kael. He claimed he wanted a romantic journey and a taste of a normal life. Just for one day. But when the train stopped, I severed our mate bond. He gasped, clutching his chest, his eyes wide with disbelief. “Elena… you’re doing this just because I gave Seraphina our private cabin?” “Yes.” He gave a bitter laugh, looking at me like I was a spoiled princess. “Baby, don’t be ridiculous. You know it's dangerous for an Omega to be alone. Especially when she's surrounded by so many predatory males.” “Name your price. My kills at camp? I’ll tell everyone I’m yours. Or… should I just mark you again?” Before I could answer, the Omega he was “protecting” whimpered his name. "I feel their eyes on me," Seraphina whimpered. "I'm scared." Instantly, he wrapped his arms around her, a human shield. He stalked possessively off the train with her in his arms. He never even gave me a second glance. Kael had no idea who he was protecting. The Omega he pitied was no victim. Seraphina belonged to a trafficking ring that preyed on lone she-wolves. It wasn’t until he found me kidnapped and broken that he collapsed, begging for a forgiveness that was long gone. But I had already sent a mind-link to the only man who could destroy him. My father. The Lycan Chairman. The one man with the power to make or break any Alpha. “Cut off Kael's resources. All of them. Now.”

Cuando Sergio Ximénez, el presidente del Grupo Ximénez, quedó discapacitado tras un accidente y anunció públicamente que buscaba matrimonio, la noticia conmocionó a toda la Capital. Mi padre subió mis datos de inmediato. —Ya que insistes en romper con Hugo Suárez, ve a intentar congraciarte con la familia Ximénez. Me negué rotundamente. Cuando intenté quitarle el celular, me abofeteó con fuerza: —No lo decides tú. Acorralada, no tuve más remedio que buscar la ayuda de Hugo, solo él podía hacer que mi padre cambiara de opinión. Pero, sin querer, escuché su conversación. —Tranquilo, Sr. Suárez. Sergio es un inválido, Serena, con su orgullo, seguro que lo desprecia. En poco tiempo vendrá llorando a suplicar por volver. Hugo soltó una risa leve: —Luna quiere un bebé. Solo me acuesto con ella para ayudarla. Serena monta un escándalo por tan poca cosa, hiciste muy bien, Sr. López. Era como si me hundiera en un abismo de hielo. Resulta que siempre había estado parada sobre las mentiras, sin nadie a mi lado. Hasta que la familia Ximénez realmente me seleccionó, ellos sí entraron en pánico.

J'ai célébré notre troisième anniversaire de mariage avec une réception que j'avais soigneusement préparée. Mais mon mari, l'Alpha Johnny, est parti en vacances à la mer avec son assistante Émilie, me laissant seule au milieu des invités, livrée aux moqueries. Sous le regard des convives, j'ai composé calmement le numéro du complexe balnéaire, et j'ai même réservé tout le domaine pour eux deux. Ensuite, j'ai envoyé à Johnny la demande de rupture du lien conjugal, présentée comme une simple facture à signer. Dans ma vie précédente, pour préserver l'honneur de nos deux meutes, j'avais forcé Johnny à rester à mes côtés, tandis qu'Émilie était partie seule et avait trouvé la mort dans un accident de voiture. Johnny ne m'avait pas reproché sa mort, pas avant que je sois tombée enceinte. Il m'avait attachée dans une voiture et m'avait dit qu'il voulait que je ressente la douleur qu'Émilie avait endurée en mourant. Quand la voiture avait explosé, j'avais enfin compris que Johnny m'avait toujours haïe. Revenue à la vie, j'ai juré de tout lui reprendre, jusqu'à ce qu'il ne lui reste plus rien.

My younger brother, Vincent Becker, is sent to study in Basmar. After that, he graduates and marries a rich heiress. Their partnership makes our family's business soar.

He locks me in a basement and hurts me every single day. I crawl my way back home, half-alive, but my parents only look at me with disgust. "Useless brat! How did you not die out there?" Vincent says that he'll take me out to clear my head. Instead, he shoves me in front of a truck. I'm rushed to the ICU with nearly every bone in my body broken. Right before I die, he leans down in his designer suit and whispers in my ear. "Let me tell you the truth before you die. Our family didn't get rich from business. We got rich because of the hundred-million-dollar lottery ticket you bought in middle school. "We cashed it behind your back and never told you." I die full of resentment, and right after my death, they sell my organs for 120 thousand dollars. I open my eyes, and suddenly I'm there again—to the very day I bought the lottery ticket.
