LOGINAfter her twin brother’s unexplained death at Alpha Academy, Alexandria Hyde takes his place and his name to uncover the truth. Now living as “Alex,” she’s thrown into a world of hot, testosterone-fueled Alphas who fight to the brink of death… and she has to survive it while hiding who she really is. But staying hidden isn’t easy– Not when the Alphas start noticing her. Not when the truth she’s chasing might destroy her first. And definitely not when they start fighting for her instead.

“Kenapa nggak bilang kalau lo punya janji di rumah? Dua minggu lagi ada touring lain. Harusnya kita bisa ikut yang itu aja. Gue jadi nggak enak, Prabu …. Kan gue yang ngajak. Ck!” Satria mengacungkan tinjunya. “Gue cuma kasian sama duda kalau nggak ada yang nemenin. Coba Roman doyan motor dan masuk club kita. Bisa berduaan terus lo berdua karena berstatus pria single,” seru Prabu lagi. “Roman, sih, doyannya night club, bukan club motor!” balas Satria, terbahak di motornya. “Atau sekali-kali lo ikut Roman ke night club. Biar aura lajang Roman nular. Lo nggak kayak duda anak satu lagi!” Prabu lalu tertawa terbahak-bahak. Setengah jam saling berbalas omongan, jalan yang ditempuh semakin mendaki. Permainan gas, kopling dan rem dilakukan dengan handal oleh peserta tour agar motor tetap stabil di tanjakan. Jalan berliku-liku dan mereka nyaris tiba di titik istirahat pertama saat hujan mulai turun. Awalnya hujan tipis, namun kemudian semakin deras. Airnya meluncur membasahi jaket kulit yang membalut rapat tubuh mereka. Dua pria bertubuh nyaris sama tinggi dan tegapnya saling pandang. Satria melirik langit. Terlihat awan gelap bergulung makin menebal. Di sisi kirinya, Prabu menoleh sambil tertawa kecil. "Gas, nggak?" "Tunggu reda dikit, Bu. Anginnya kenceng banget. Neduh dulu, yuk.” Satria menyalakan lampu sen, menuju bawah jembatan kecil. Satria tidak punya firasat apa pun. Pagi itu semuanya normal dan semuanya baik-baik saja. Prabu ada janji dengan keluarga kecilnya dan ia sendiri berjanji akan menjemput Nayla; putrinya di rumah mantan istrinya. Akhir pekan adalah giliran ia menjalankan co-parenting untuk gadis kecil semata wayangnya. Bagi Satria sendiri, ia merasa tidak ada yang berbeda dengannya. Prabu juga cerita seperti biasa. Kecuali kalau boleh dibilang agak berbeda, Prabu memang kadang-kadang diam dan mengecek ponselnya sedikit lebih lama. Prabu kadang berdecak dan menghela napas panjang. Meski sepintas, Satria melihat perubahan wajah sahabatnya itu. “Ada masalah?” tanya Satria saat mereka berdiri bersisian di bawah jembatan. “Nggak adalah. Memangnya muka gue keliatan muka pria ada masalah?” Prabu meninju lengan Satria sambil tertawa. Sama cerianya seperti kemarin-kemarin. "Itu yang lain udah pada jalan. Ada iring-iringan club mobil juga kayaknya. Kita ikut aja. Biar cepet sampai." Prabu naik ke motor dan menyalakannya. "Udah, santai aja. Kita nggak perlu nyusulin yang lain. Masih deras,” kata Satria, berjalan ke tepi jembatan dan mendongak. “Ayo, deh. Gue nggak mau kalau Sheza dan Dio nunggu gue kelamaan.” Prabu bersiap-siap memakai sarung tangannya. Satria meraih lengan Prabu, menahannya. Rautnya jadi ikut gelisah. “Lo tuh, ya. Kalau memang ada janji sama Sheza dan Dio harusnya nggak perlu iyain kalau gue ajak. Asli gue jadi kasian sama mereka. Mau digas sekarang juga jalanan licin, Bu.” Jawaban Prabu saat itu hanya mengangkat bahu. Ia menepuk lengan Satria sebelum melaju. “Ayo, Sat! Gue tinggal juga, nih,” katanya. Entah karena memang firasat, atau entah karena ia yang ingin menghabiskan waktu sedikit lebih lama untuk bercakap-cakap sesama pria. Yang jelas, tak ada alasan lagi untuk berdiri di bawah jembatan kecil itu tanpa Prabu. Satria segera menyalakan motor dan melesat untuk memperpendek jarak dengan sahabatnya. Tikungan sempit. Aspal basah. Kabut putih menelan pandangan. Satria menahan napas. Ia tak melihat lampu belakang motor Prabu. Tangan kanannya menekan gas tapi kemudian urung karena dari arah berlawanan terlihat padat. Ketika pikiran ragu-ragu itu muncul, sebuah bunyi memekakkan telinga membuat matanya terpejam sepersekian detik. BRAAAK! Raungan klakson panjang. Suara besi menghantam besi. Suara yang membuat ulu hati siapa pun mencelos. Satria baru saja keluar dari tikungan ketika dunia dirasanya melambat. Ia melihat sesuatu terlempar ke udara. Sebentuk siluet yang sangat ia kenal. Helm pecah dan serpihannya melayang bersama air hujan. Mata Satria tertuju pada sesuatu. Motor Prabu yang menghantam pembatas jalan, lalu tergilas keras oleh truk kontainer yang tak sempat mengerem. Dentuman logam menggemuruh membuat detik itu tangannya reflek menarik rem. Semua kendaraan di depannya kini terhenti dan gaduh. Satria melompat turun dari motornya. Jantungnya berdebar tak karuan. Ia berlari dengan teriakan tanpa suara. Tak tahu harus berlari ke mana. Darah di mana-mana. Helm Prabu pecah. Ringsek. Tangannya terangkat ke atas. Gemetar menggapai udara. Memegangi kepalanya dengan linglung. “PRABU!” jerit Satria. “Prabu …!” Satria kembali menjerit. Tubuh sahabatnya itu tergeletak di bawah truk. Masih bernapas. Ia masih melihat Prabu menghela napas meski kepayahan. Matanya separuh terbuka. Bibirnya terbuka pelan. Mencoba mengatakan sesuatu yang tak bisa ditangkap telinga. “Tolong! Tolong!” jerit Satria, meraba-raba ponsel dan menekan nomor darurat yang bisa diingatnya saat itu. ***** (IGD Rumah Sakit Pinggiran Kota) Satria berdiri membeku. Bajunya basah kuyup. Sepatunya berlumpur. Jaket kulitnya tertempel bercak darah yang sudah mengering. Sejak tadi tatapannya tak beranjak dari sosok tampan yang kini bergeming dengan wajah penuh luka lecet. Bagian sisi kanan kepalanya ada jahitan besar. Seorang dokter menutup catatan medis, suaranya datar. “Kepalanya parah, ada pendarahan masif. Kami sudah berusaha, Pak.” Kalimat itu seperti palu godam, tapi Satria bergeming. Rahangnya mengeras, matanya memerah. Ia hanya menatap kain putih yang kini menutupi sahabatnya hingga dada. Tangan Prabu sudah rapi disedekapkan. Suster berjalan pelan ke arahnya. "Bapak kenal korban?" Satria mengangguk seraya menelan ludah. Rahangnya tiba-tiba saja mengeras. "Saya kenal istrinya. Biar saya yang kasih tau,” ucapnya. Entah sudah berapa kali ia mengusap wajahnya sejak tadi. Air mata yang berusaha dihalaunya tak kunjung berhenti. “Bapak telepon atau kita….” “Saya yang kabari langsung. Saya ke rumahnya sekarang.” Satria menggigit bibir bawahnya. “Sekalian urus surat-suratnya juga,” tambahnya pelan. Kali ini sepertinya ia harus benar-benar meninggalkan perawat itu. …FAYE What the hell was Chad even talking about a while ago?I wanted to run after him and ask what exactly he meant by his words. Better yet, I wanted to grab him by the collar and remind him that we had already agreed to pretend we weren’t mates.I crossed my arms over my chest, letting out an irritated huff as I remembered the way he’d looked at me. His expression had been so serious that, for a moment, I’d actually forgotten how to respond.He hadn’t even waited for me to say anything before walking away, leaving me standing in the middle of nowhere with a thousand questions inside my head. It was already evening, but my heart was still racing. It had started racing the moment he’d pulled me away from Leomar, and even now, I could feel it beating quickly against my chest. I pressed a hand over it, frowning as I tried to calm myself down.I took a deep breath, only to catch the faint traces of his scent lingering around me. I shook my head and decided that the best thing I could
CHADYeah, I was never going to fall for her. Never, ever. I repeated those words in my head like a mantra.I still couldn’t understand how the Moon Goddess could have such a twisted sense of humor. Out of all the women in the world, she had to pair me with Faye.However, despite everything, I couldn’t get her out of my head.Today, our group arrived at a place that had recently been struck by a calamity.Several families had lost their homes, and many were left with little more than the clothes on their backs. That was why Wyatt and I decided to organize this drive to help them rebuild their pack.We had set up a temporary relief center, and we were currently distributing supplies and checking on the families who had gathered there.We had been here all morning, and I still hadn’t seen Faye ever since we arrived, so naturally, I found myself looking around for a certain annoying woman.I glanced at the volunteers carrying boxes, the people lining up for food, and the children huddled
FAYEHow the heck did it turn out that Chad was my mate? It couldn’t be possible. My mate was Alex’s brother, remember? If I was given a second-chance mate, how did it turn out to be Chad? And why did it manifest now, of all times?I was sitting on his couch while he was leaning against the wall. The two of us hadn’t said anything until now, our combined scents still lingering in the air—which just made everything worse. It was impossible to ignore. Every time I breathed, I could smell him, and every time I caught his scent, my heart seemed to beat a little harder in my chest.I hated the fact that some part of me could feel the bond between us, even though every other part of me was screaming that this had to be a mistake.“What are we going to do?” he asked, finally breaking the silence.I glanced at him and hated how handsome he looked in my eyes at this moment. His features seemed sharper, his eyes more intense, and there was something about being this close to him that made me aw
FAYEI must be out of my mind.I lay there on the bed, listening to the sound of the shower running in the bathroom. My body still carried the ache of everything that had happened last night, and although I was still a little out of my mind, I could still remember everything.Every single thing.Honestly, some part of me wanted to blame Chad, but at the same time, I knew exactly what I had been doing. I was the one who asked him to help me with my heat—or whatever the hell this was. I had been the one who went to him, the one who had asked for his help, and the one who had willingly allowed everything to happen.So, no. I couldn't exactly put the blame on him.I ran my fingers through my hair and slowly pushed myself up from the bed, already grimacing as I anticipated something gushing out of me. However, to my surprise, I was already clean. In fact, I was already dressed in his clothes.I looked down at myself, then slowly glanced around the room.What the hell?I walked over to the
ALEXANDRIA“Good day, Headmaster Sora,” the Alphas said in unison as they settled into their seats, causing me to purse my lips. Sora. Even his name carried a sense of popularity. His deep voice resonated through the hall once more. “It has been a month since the freshmen arrived on campus. How ar
ALEXANDRIA “What an asshole.” After telling me about the assembly, Chase just threw on a shirt and stormed out of the room. When I asked him if we could go together, he told me to figure it out for myself. Now, I was lost in the sprawling maze of this Academy. Who knew that finding the gymnasi
ALEXANDRIA I stared at my reflection in the car mirror while Ryland drove us to the Academy. Mandy was in the backseat, singing along to the latest viral songs on the radio. Mandy had cut my hair evenly and placed it in a lazy half-up and half-down. She had also concealed my naturally rosy cheeks
ALEXANDRIA“Goodness, Alex. Where have you been?” By the time I finally got home, the sun was already high in the sky. I had spent the night at a 24-hour cafe, indulging in far too many ice cream sundaes, hoping to sober myself up—or at least feel a bit better. To my surprise, I did feel better th
