What the heart wants:Reincarnator meets transmigrator
"If anything he doesn't love me as much as he loved you, I have seen Asher in love. He becomes the softest and gentlest person to the one he loves, but he isn't like that with me. he thinks he loves me but he doesn't-" "That is because he wants to be loved in return" Sabine stated. Isabelle looked at the other woman, "what do you mean? "That look in his eyes when he stares at you? He loves you so much that he is scared of getting hurt, he is afraid that you would not love him back the way he loves you. If there is something I have noticed with Asher is that he sacrifices himself for me, he did the same thing for Giselle too, but with you, he just wants to be loved back." "And that is supposed to be better? He worshipped you two and for me?" "He didn't worship us, Isabelle, on the contrary, you are the one being worshipped. There is nothing more beautiful in this world than to love and be loved. He did not need us to love him back, he did not require our love but he pines for yours. You can see vividly how he searches and does everything he can to receive even a sliver of your affection. You have more power over his sanity, peace of mind, and happiness than Giselle and I combined wished to have. Isabelle, you have it all, every single part of Asher's heart and soul, and as hard as this is to say, you have to stop breaking it." ****************************** This is a love story, a story of fate and fiction, where lifetimes come to play. Do you believe in soulmates? What if you have to endure three lifetimes to end up with your soulmate? Isabelle has suffered heartbreak her past two lifetimes, even though she only remembers one lifetime. Her fate was so twisted she ended up the victim of an ambitious author. When her world is turned into a novel she does not end up as the main lead, hence she does not end up with the male lead, what is worse is that she becomes a cannon fodder that ends up dying tragically. She reincarnates when a transmigrator possesses the body of the novel's second female Lead, Sabine. With another chance she falls in love with the male lead, her fiance once again. But just like in her first life he doesn't even notice her as more than a nuisance, in fact, in this life she dies by his hand. Now she has reincarnated for the third time, and she remembers her past life, she knows her life is fiction and made for mere entertainment but she cannot accept such a tragic fate again. In the first life, the male lead ended up with her cousin the female lead, Giselle. In her second life, he was in love with the second lead, Sabine. All this when she had the most claim to him as his fiancee' but he manages to break her each time. In this life, she is not going to make the same mistake. Each time she loves him she dies, but not this time. But what happens when he finally wants her? What happens when he remembers his past lives and confesses that she is the one he has wanted all along? ************************** Make no mistake, this is not your normal storyline. The first volume is written in the first person and the main villain is not introduced till volume two. It is a SLOWBURN romance and the story picks up in volume two. But this author promises it is not a read you will regret. It is different but worth it, a deep storyline with flawed characters who make real mistakes and have real stakes and pressure on them. Stay for the journey and you will never regret reading this at the end, in fact, you won't be able to forget it. A lot of life lessons, but you must be patient through the ride. If superficial and shallow plotlines are what you want then this read isn't for you, but if you are tired of the same old thing then try these. Same concept but with an incredible twist. This author hopes you see this book for what it is. A lesson.
Cake face
ISABELLE
In my previous life and in this life I've only been in love with one person. Xavier Jun, the only man I've looked at all my life, but apparently he only had eyes for his first love, but the funny thing is that in my past life he never even met her, the real her. The moment I realized the truth is was already late, I was foolish and naive and too trusting not only to my aunt and uncle but that snake! Just thinking about that person makes me so mad, so even though I am not his first love the woman that saved his life as a child, I'm simply going to tell the same lie, he never found out the truth the last time either. And at least this time I won't be using his feelings for my own selfish gain. I truly intend to love him.
"Are you really Isabelle?" My friend Jessie asked as I walked out of the Library. "You've never been to the library before and why are you studying lung diseases? Those were last year's topics." She said.
"Don't bother about that we have bigger fish to fry" I say.
"So? Are you finally going to tell him how you feel? What is giving you the courage? You could barely look at him without dashing in the other direction yesterday." My best friend Jessie said.
In this life and in the last I am still nervous but what can I do? I need to do this, not only for my happiness but also for my life. Xavier might just be a handsome college student with a bad attitude and a deep dislike for any or every kind of female student, but in a few years he would hold one of the most powerful companies in this country, he was untouchable. He was basically a sadist, with the worst personality, always pushing everyone away but I still always liked him.
"Yes, I am," I said, walking forward. Just as I was about to reach him another girl walked in front of me and dropped a box of cakes in front of him.
Looking down her shaking was visible, oh dear. She fiddled her hands as she spoke as well, "I-I stayed up all night baking that for you Xavier, please please accept my heart."
I sucked in a lot of air and waited for the disaster that was coming, with pity in my heart for the girl I swear it reminded me of myself in the past, how I did and made the same mistake before.
Looking up at her with those piercing eyes that held no warmth or remorse her grabbed the box of cake and handed it back to her. "If you stayed up all night to make it why don't you eat it yourself." He said non nonchalantly.
I stared at the girl shaking my head as she opened her mouth to speak again, don't do it, don't do it!
"Y-yes but I did it for only you, I wouldn't even put in much effort for myself like this." She said and I covered my face with my hands, it was like verbatim. Oh, the poor girl.
"On that note," he smiled the most wicked smile taking the box and opening it to reveal six cupcakes with his face in the icing. Picking on out her raised it up to examine it further and before the foolish girl was already smiling, suddenly my brain fast-forwarded and it was as though I was watching my own past, he took the cupcake got up and smashed it into my face.
"Why did you do that?" I screeched.
"How the hell did you get my picture? I thought I was explicit, no photos of me!" He yelled.
Tears forming in my eyes, "I-I didn't know, I'm sorry." I choked out.
He scoffed, "of course you didn't" grabbing the next cupcake he tossed violently at the wall, making me watch as he trampled my heart five times over. After he was done, he pushed my chin upwards and forced me to look into those terrifying eyes "I will never ever want to be with somebody like you, the sooner you get that into that dumb skull of yours the better."
As I watched him rise with the cupcake in his hands I rushed forward and pulled the girl back, but I was too late because for the second time the cupcake was smashed into my face.
My eyes could not blink because of the icing that coated my lashes and I felt rage, I know he is the villain, I know he is capable of doing bad things, horrible things. Things he wasted no thought on executing but somehow, the confidence I swear I don't know from whence it came just did and I wiped the smashed cake on my face and flicked my hand so it would drop to the ground.
This was the first time I saw an emotion other than annoyance and emptiness in his eyes towards me, he looked surprised.
"What the hell are you doing?" He asked.
"I could ask you the same thing!" I yelled back, angry. Why was I angry? He broke my heart, how could he say such mean things to me? "Why the hell are you so cruel? Would it kill you to let someone down easily? 'thank you for your feelings for me, I'm afraid I can accept it is that hard to say?"
Oh look the annoyance in his eyes is back. "Are you mad? What the hell gives you the right to interfere in this?" His voice became dangerously low, but I was a heartbroken woman who still loved her heart breaker, pitiful? Yes, and I was taking out that annoyance with myself on him.
"And what gives you the right to treat someone else like that? Do you not realize she is someone's precious daughter?" I spat back.
He smiled, "since you want to take it for her" in the blink of an eye, I felt a weight on the top of my hair, then moisture. He slammed the second cupcake into my head. But I was not going to just allow him to walk away with that.
I also reached for another one but before I could hit him with it he grabbed my arm and pulled me closer to himself. The proximity drove me insane, and though I struggled to free my hand he was just way stronger than I was. He managed to force me to drop the cake, but what he didn't realize was that I was way smarter than this.
Throwing me backward by flinging my hands away he scoffed, smirking slyly. "Walk away before you embarrass yourself any further, cake face."
So I returned the smirk, "Hey I'm not the only cake face here."
Before he could finish what he was saying I smashed the cupcake I grabbed secretly with my other hand into his face.
