I was twenty when I met him.

He was nobody then. Just another wannabe actor running errands on set. But I knew the second I saw him.

A year later, he asked me out.

"Give me sometimes," he said, holding my hand. "When I win Best Actor, I'll announce you at the ceremony."

I believed him.

I begged my b...

I floated in what had once been my bridal studio, staring at the corpse curled up among the shattered plaster—that was me.

Three years ago, I had been my husband's moonlight, the exclusive signature on his design drafts, the one who had stayed with him from the basement to Fashion Week.

Later, I became the thief who had embezzled and fled, the stranger he spoke of.

My wedding dress had been sta...

I gave five years to my husband's ambition—and got betrayal in return.

Forty-three days without a break on the Imperial City project. I collapsed from exhaustion and woke up in the hospital. He never picked up the phone.

He was too busy celebrating his mistress's birthday.

The blonde hair wrapped around his jacket was like a slap to the face. I'd cut my own hair short years ago because he said ...

He didn't know that while he was cradling his bastard child with that tender smile, our baby had already dissolved int...

Thirteen years. That's how long I loved Reid Holloway.
When he said he was being bullied, I believed him. When he kissed me on that rooftop, I thought he felt the same. When he asked me to transfer schools with him, I said yes without hesitation.
Then I heard him bragging to his friends: "She'd save her first time for me. Hell, she'd still be thinking of me on her wedding night."
The bullying was ...

Yet when I finally left, I was reduced to a pitiful, laughable sight.

I said, "Fine."

"Julian... what would you do if I got pregnant?"

He thrust once more, hard, his release spilling hot between my thighs as he let out a guttural groan.

I graduated college with Owen, my childhood best friend, and we finally started dating. He said we should keep it secret for a year first, didn't want things getting messy with our parents being so close if things went south.

So when I lay there that night, breathless and buzzing, ready...

At my birthday party, my husband whispered to his mistress in French that he missed her.

He doesn't know I ...

I married Rowan for love—he only saw a contract.

Desperate to turn our two-year arrangement into something real, I gave it all: my name, my body, even my silence about my deep feelings. But all I got were cold exchanges and closed doors—no emotional intimacy, no warmth, nothing real. Eventually, my heart shattered.

So I walked away: divorce, resignation, and a vow to rebuild on my own terms. My ...

When my parents forced me to donate my organs to my sister, I didn't refuse or run away. I just quietly signed the surgical consent forms, willingly giving my kidney to Vivienne, their beloved daughter.

Olivia thought her life was going to be perfect after she was adopted at a legal age by the Brookes couple, who were well-known businessmen in New York.

I stood outside Jake's door with homemade cookies, planning how we'd fix our three-and-a-half-year relationship after this fight.

So did I. That's how I ended up on the ledge of London Bridge.
The one who pulled me back was a stranger in a ridiculous bear costume. "You'd die for a man like that?" she said. "Why not run away with me instead?"
I took...

The day I went to end my pregnancy, I found my husband cradling his ex. Her problem? A cramp. His solution? Whispering promises he never made to me.

He told me our marriage was a lie. That I was never the one. And that I was unworthy of being a mother.

So I walked out and never looked back.

Now, free from that life, I watch his new girlfriend flash her ring. She expects me to be jealous. But I ...

He raised me, married me, and called me his perfect wife. I didn't know I was just his pet.

When his first love returned, I saw our marriage for what it was: a gilded cage. I served him divorce papers. He laughed, sure I'd come crawling back.

I ran and never looked back. Now, my life is my own, with a new suitor every day.

The CEO who swore I couldn't leave him is now on his knees, desperate. "...

"Divorce papers!"

That wiped the smugness off her face—if only for a second.
"I didn't even know I was pregnant," I whispered. "And I lost the baby alone, bleeding on th...

He lifted his hand and brushed a strand of hair from my face, fingers grazing too gently. I snapped, "How many times do I have to tell you not to touch me?"
His mouth curved, the faintest smirk. "You walked in here looking like a fucking temptation. And you think I'm not supposed to touch you?"
I tilted my chin, refusing to back down. "Funny. I thought you said I didn't look good."
He leaned close...

"Sign those fucking papers, Hermione." Adam commands.
I look up at him, to beg, to pour my bleeding heart out, to say the last words that are left of me.
"Adam, if I sign these papers…" I breathe out.
"If you let me walk out of here like this, I'll never be back in your life again. We'll never have those moments…" I couldn't finish my words.

"Valerie, I know I made mistakes. We all did. I didn't see how much you did for us—how much you sacrificed." He choked out, "But now I can fix it. It's not too late."
"Just leave," I said, trying to walk past him, only for his hand to stop me.


In one life, Valerie, Luna...

"Strip!" he ordered.
"No way am I doing that!" I spat back defiantly.
"Well then... If my little wildcat wants to play house... Be my guest, sweetheart!" His tone was dripping with mockery as he began closing the distance between us with calculated steps.
