A Castle For Christmas 2

Der Samt-Pakt Als Eva, eine unauffällige und mittellose junge Frau, den brennenden Blick der Zwillinge Volkov auf einer gesellschaftlichen Veranstaltung trifft, gerät ihr Leben aus den Fugen. Sasha und Niko, zwei ebenso verführerische wie gefährliche Erben, machen ihr ein unanständiges Angebot: drei Millionen… im Austausch für ihr erstes Mal. Aber es ist nicht nur ein einfacher Pakt. Es ist ein Spiel. Eine Wahl. Eine Prüfung. Sie muss ihre Unschuld einem von ihnen anbieten… während der andere zusieht. Was als zwielichtige Transaktion beginnt, wird zu einer brennenden Obsession, einem verbotenen Dreieck zwischen Dominanz, Eifersucht und der Entfaltung der Sinne. Und im Herzen dieser sinnlichen Falle könnte Eva entdecken, dass die wahre Macht… nicht immer in den Händen derjenigen liegt, die bezahlen.

เมื่อตระกูลจางมีชื่อเสียงและฐานะไม่ธรรมดาตัวข้าเติบโตถึงวัยที่แสดงความรู้สึกได้แต่บุรุษที่อยู่ในใจก็มีสตรีหมายตา ความสามารถจึงหยุดอยู่ที่เดิมไม่ได้ 'ข้าต้องทำให้ตัวเองคู่ควรกับพี่จื้ออวี่ให้ได้'

I thought Christmas had already broken me. Betrayal, loss, and a miscarriage that shattered everything I’d built. So I did the only reckless thing a heart in ruins could do: closed my eyes, jabbed a finger at a map, and bought a ticket to wherever it landed. No plan. No hope. Just a wounded heart running from the wreckage. I wanted quiet. Snow. A place to breathe and heal. I found him instead. A man who feels too wild for this world, all heat and muscle and dark, hungry eyes. He kisses like he’s claiming something. Touches like he’s learning every secret my body holds. His strength borders on impossible. His presence, addictive. He calls me his naughty little Christmas gift. And every time he drags his mouth down my throat, I forget every reason I had to stay guarded. But the deeper I fall, the stranger things become. The room around him feels alive. The night listens when he speaks. His eyes flash with an animal glow that shouldn’t exist, and the sound he makes when he’s holding back, low, guttural, trembling the air between us doesn’t belong to any man. I should run. Ask questions. Save myself. But I’m far too gone. Even willing to be ruined by whatever he is. So I ignore the question whether I’m losing my mind, or whether the fear curling beneath the heat is real. And let him keep unwrapping me like the gift he thinks I am. Because whatever lives inside him…it’s the first thing that’s made me feel alive again.

Why have one brother when I can have all three? “Is this what you do every time we’re not here?' he asks. “You get yourself off like this?” I shake my head, fucking myself on the dildo. “No. No, it’s just today,” I gasp out. “I just… needed it.” Luke’s jaw clenches. “I’ve heard you. At night.” My stomach flips. I thought I was being quiet, but I guess not quiet enough. “Luke—” I didn’t mean to tell my entire family that I’m dating my ex’s three older brothers…But to be fair, the lie wasn’t even my fault. When my ex asked if I’d be bringing a plus-one to his holiday wedding (to my sister, by the way–don’t even get me started about that). I lied. I probably should’ve been prepared for followup questions, but when my ex asked who I’m dating, I drew a complete blank. That’s when his three gorgeous older brothers spoke up… at the same time. Now my family thinks I’m dating all three of them, Elijah, Luke, and Benedict. To make things even more complicated, they don’t seem to get along at all, and I may have given my v-card to Elijah six years ago before he ghosted me after one night. My life is chaotic enough as it is, trying to keep my tiny bakery afloat during the Christmas rush. The last thing I need is all three brothers coming after me. This is all supposed to be fake… even if the tension between us feels alarmingly real.I already fell for one Montgomery brother and got my heart broken. What would happen if I dare to let myself fall for three?

Three days before my wedding, I find out that my fiancee, Ivy Carlton, has changed the wedding venue from my grandfather's home—that's located up in the south—to Jonah Jennings, her childhood friend's favorite castle in Staravia. When I'm about to confront her, I overhear her complaining to her friend, "Thank goodness Jon's a man with taste! Otherwise, everyone's going to make fun of me for the rest of my life!" Her friend asks, "Didn't you agree that you'd hold the wedding ceremony in Theo's grandpa's house? Aren't you worried that he might not marry you out of fury when he finds out?" Ivy chortles in response. "The Sterlings are on the verge of bankruptcy. Marrying me is Theo's only ticket out of poverty. He can't risk losing me at all. "I've already arranged for the wedding planner to call him and inform him about the change. He's most likely rushing to change his flight." Rage and resentment swell in my heart. I clench my fists tightly, but in the end, I turn on my heel and leave. Three days later, the wedding is held in the castle, just as Ivy has planned. I never changed my flight, nor did I show up at the castle. Instead, I choose to exchange rings with another woman in my grandpa's courtyard. Till now, Ivy still doesn't understand that I want to marry her because we've been dating for ten long years, not because I view her as a ticket out of poverty. But now that I've woken up from my dream woven of fantasies, it's time for me to make choice.

'Duda' Sebutan itu tersemat untuk seorang Devano Zayn Ganendra sekarang. Bohong jika Devan baik-baik saja setelah ditinggalkan oleh Disya. Lelaki itu sampai tumbang, berbaring di rumah sakit untuk beberapa pekan karena sakit fisik... juga hati sebenarnya. Ditinggalkan Disya benar-benar berdampak buruk untuk Devan. Apa yang sudah dilakukan oleh Devan untuk membuat istri kecilnya kembali? Tidak ada! Devan tidak melakukan apapun selama tiga tahun ini, bukannya tidak ingin berusaha... Devan merasa Disya memang tidak mau memaafkannya, apalagi kembali menjadi istrinya. Belum lagi sekarang Disya mempunyai Kakak laki-laki yang begitu amat protektif dan posesif. Devan tidak takut, hanya saja posisi lelaki itu lebih darinya, dalam artian lebih tinggi posisi terpenting dalam hidup Disya setelah Ayahnya, sekarang. Sulit! Sangat sulit. "Sudah tiga tahun 'kan? Tidak ingin kembali dengan Disya? Setidaknya kembali perkenalkan dirimu seolah-olah kau adalah orang baru—seorang Devano dengan versi yang lebih baik. Masuk ke dalam kehidupannya lagi dengan perlahan-lahan dan hati-hati, yakinkan hati Disya kembali untuk bisa bersamamu. Dulu, jalanmu terlalu gampang untuk bersama Disya, mungkin kali ini Tuhan ingin kamu lebih berusaha untuk mendapatkan Disya kembali, supaya kamu berpikir beberapa kali jika ingin membuatnya menangis." Seseorang mengatakan itu kepada Devan. Perkataannya berhasil membuat Devan kembali mendapatkan kepercayaan dan keyakinan diri yang lebih besar untuk mendapatkan kembali cintanya. Mungkin benar apa katanya, kali ini jalan untuk mendapatkan hati Disya lebih susah dan sulit, akan ada banyak rintangan dan badai yang datang. Tapi... Devan memang harus melewatinya jika ingin kembali mendapatkan hati Disya, 'kan? Akankah Devan berhasil? ***
