They break my ribs and watch as I die from the pain!

Di dalam bus tidur saat perjalanan pulang di hari liburan, aku yang memang memiliki hasrat tinggi tidak tahan ingin memeluk boneka silikon khusus yang baru aku beli untuk memuaskan diri. Setelah kembali dari toilet, lampu bus sudah dimatikan dan seluruh kabin gelap gulita. Aku meraba-raba masuk ke dalam tirai ranjangku. "Jangan di sana. Kamu terlalu besar. Nanti rusak." Tanpa banyak bicara, pria itu mengangkat kakiku di bahunya. Benda panasnya yang besar menekan bagian intimku. Aku menggelengkan kepala tidak karuan, napasku tersengal-sengal, air mata dan liurku bercampur menjadi satu, menetes ke seluruh lantai. "Aku salah. Cepat masukkan." Benda keras itu langsung menusuk ke dalam. Aku sampai memutarkan bola mata karena terlalu nikmat. "Kalau terus dipegang, ini akan berakhir sampai penetrasi penuh."

"Tubuh ini beku dalam pernikahan. Tapi malam itu… ada tangan yang membuatnya kembali hidup." Runa, seorang pengacara cerdas, hidup dalam bayang-bayang pernikahan tanpa cinta selama tiga tahun. Suaminya, seorang putra konglomerat, mengabaikannya, bahkan menyentuh tubuh lain dengan terang-terangan, dan menyisakan Runa dalam kesepian yang dingin. Tapi malam itu, di atas bus kota yang sempit dan basah oleh hujan, seorang pria asing berdiri terlalu dekat. Sebuah sentuhan terlarang memicu sesuatu dalam diri Runa. Gairah yang selama ini dipaksa mati. Ketika tubuhnya disentuh dengan cara yang tak pernah ia dapatkan dari suaminya, Runa sadar mungkin ia bukan perempuan yang baik, tapi ia berhak merasa hidup. Sekali saja. Dengan orang yang menginginkannya, bukan memilikinya. “Aku nggak ingin jadi pria yang menaklukkanmu, Runa … Aku cuma ingin jadi tempat kamu bisa pulang tanpa takut jadi lemah," lirih Kian, setipis helaan napasnya. Apakah kemunculan Kian Mahesa adalah jawaban dari semua kegelisahan yang menyiksa raganya?

I was never a novel person. Honestly? I couldn’t care less about them. That is, until “Three Hearts, One Love”... the reverse harem novel that took over the world… shoved itself into my life. Everywhere I turned: malls, newsfeeds, radios, TVs… Even the old lady at the bus stop was raving about it. Out of pure annoyance… and a little curiosity… I bought a copy, planning to skim it just enough to say it was overrated. Big mistake. Huge. One minute I was rolling my eyes at the melodrama, the next I woke up inside the story — not as the beloved heroine, of course. No, fate made me Luna Graves: the pathetic and miserable, jealous best friend doomed to crash and burn spectacularly by the end of the novel. With no way out, I figured I'd play my part, die dramatically, and call it a day. But then something weird happened. Scenes shifted. Strangers walked onto the page. And the swoon-worthy male leads? They stopped chasing the heroine... and started chasing me. Me. The villain. This wasn’t in the script... and I was definitely not ready.
