Future

Esther Almeida Duarte sempre foi a funcionária perfeita: competente, discreta e praticamente invisível. Há sete anos, ela é a secretária impecável do CEO da poderosa multinacional Blackstone Corp. Com seus tailleurs cinza, coque milimetricamente alinhado e postura impecável, ela é o tipo de mulher que ninguém nota — exceto o próprio CEO. Adrian Blackstone, o homem mais temido e desejado da empresa, sempre tratou Helena com respeito e uma dose de charme provocador. Ela achava que era só brincadeira… até o dia em que sua vida desmorona. Ao flagrar o marido a traindo, Helena perde o controle, expulsa o infiel de casa e decide que nunca mais será a mulher apagada que sempre foi. Enquanto tenta reconstruir sua vida, Esther começa a chamar atenção — inclusive a de Adrian, que parece enxergar nela algo que sempre esteve ali, escondido. Mas quando a química entre os dois se torna impossível de ignorar, Esther descobre um segredo que muda tudo: Adrian não é apenas um CEO poderoso. Ele é um vampiro centenário, preso entre o mundo corporativo e sua própria maldição. Agora, Esther precisa decidir se enfrenta seus medos e se permite viver um amor proibido… ou se foge antes que ele possa feri-la — no coração ou no pescoço. Entre humor ácido, drama emocional e um romance que queima devagar, Como se Livrar do Marido e Seduzir um Vampiro é a história de uma mulher que renasce, um vampiro que aprende a sentir de novo e um amor que desafia regras, hierarquias e até a própria eternidade.

She had dreamed of a fairy tale. He turned her dream into a ruthless contract. Olivia Bittencourt worked as an administrator at her father’s engineering firm. Romantic and devoted, she had always dreamed of building a family—and she believed she had found that future beside her boyfriend. On the night she finally decided to give herself to him, she was drugged by the very man she loved—who had planned to “sell” her virginity to his boss in exchange for a promotion. But a mix-up in hotel suites changed everything: Olivia ended up in the arms of a cold CEO, addicted to women, who didn’t believe in love or forever. From that forbidden night came an unexpected pregnancy. Desperate to save her brother from loan sharks and protect her heart-fragile father, Olivia used the card left behind that night to pay the debt… and ended up in Liam Holt’s hands. He needed to marry and produce a legitimate heir to claim his grandfather’s fortune and keep control of the empire; she had no way out. Under pressure, she agreed to a one-year contract marriage—pretending to be the billionaire’s perfect wife. Between hatred, desire, and secrets, Olivia discovered it was impossible to pretend forever… and that this contract could be her prison—or the path to a great love.

And the more he fights it, the more her very presence dares to unravel every rule, every principle, every line he swore never to cross.

Astrid waited for Joshua all night as she usually did... And the first thing she received, instead of a cold greeting, was the divorce papers. “Why?” were her only words when she saw the agreement. Joshua looked at her indifferently. “It's enough. It's a waste of time to continue this marriage. In the first place, if it weren't for my grandfather, I wouldn't have married you... Sign it!” he shouted. Astrid, her eyes filled with tears, hurriedly took the divorce agreement and put it in her mouth. “I don't want a divorce!” Astrid cried. Joshua didn't respond, he just looked at her and walked away. After all, it was difficult to get into the heart of someone like Joshua. She stood firm in her decision. She had married to take care of her mother's health... Until she lost her too, leaving her with nothing left to hold on to. “He doesn't feel anything for me,” she said, wiping her teary eyes. “In the future, I will never appear in front of him again.” She took her luggage and, accompanied by a heavy snowfall, disappeared along with her footprints in the snow. She left behind only her signature on the divorce agreement. With a trembling body, she escaped. Five years later, a little boy reminded her of the person she tried to forget.
