I've been pregnant for six months, but my Alpha mate, William, has delayed our mating ceremony 29 times. He's waiting for his adopted sister, Rita, to find a mate so they can have a "two-couple mating ceremony." The 30th time I altered the waist of my beloved mating ceremony dress, the bridal shop assistant looked embarrassed, "Miss, this dress really can't be widened anymore. How about you choose another one?" Disappointment rose in my throat like bile. I called William, asking when the ceremony would finally happen. But William said: "I will give you an unforgettable mating ceremony, but Rita's mate hasn't been matched yet. Darling, can you wait a little longer? We shouldn't ruin her whole life over such a small thing, right? I know you'll understand. You're always so kind." My heart clenched suddenly. So, my dream mating ceremony is just a small thing. Rita's sweet, high-pitched voice chimed in: "Brother, my mating ceremony dress matches yours so perfectly!" That was the moment I realized I was never the one being chosen. I looked down at my round pregnant belly, tears slipping quietly from the corners of my eyes. Then, with a trembling hand, I dialed the number that had always been waiting for me. "I'm ready to leave." After the call ended, the clerk cautiously asked: "Would you like to choose another one?" "No. Just cancel it, please." I took one last glance at the dress that would never belong to me. If this ceremony was never for me, then I won't stay for it.

Warning sewarning-warningnya! Khusus 21+ "Saya... butuh lebih dari sekadar teori.” Ariella Anata, seorang penulis cerita dewasa yang berkali-kali gagal menerbitkan karyanya, kembali ditolak mentah-mentah oleh editornya, karena tulisannya dianggap hambar dan tidak menggugah. Putus asa dan kehilangan arah, ia disarankan sahabatnya, Silvi, untuk belajar dari seorang pakar seksologi terkenal—dr. Nathan Xander—yang sering menjadi narasumber di majalah dewasa. Meskipun seminar dr. Nathan hanya diperuntukkan bagi pasangan suami istri, Ariel nekat menyelinap masuk demi “riset langsung” untuk tulisannya.

Setelah ditolak mentah-mentah oleh Nathan karena dianggap belum pantas, Ariel nekat mencium sang dokter demi membuktikan tekad dan keberaniannya sebagai penulis. Ciuman itu mengubah segalanya.

I've been in love for six years, but my wedding has been called off 99 times by the man who claims to love me most, the mafia boss, Daniel Reed. The first time is on a private island off the coast of Sorellia. He promises me a secret wedding. But an hour before the ceremony, he gets a call saying that his new assistant, Emily Jennings, has been taken by a rival family. Without a word, he leaves me behind and sails off into the night. The second time, we're standing at the altar, exchanging vows. His underboss then leans in and whispers, "Emily's in trouble." Daniel tears off his boutonniere and walks out without looking back. Emily has been kidnapped again—this time, near the border district. He leads an armed raid that very night while I'm left behind, becoming the laughingstock in the mafia's VIP lounges. No matter when I schedule the wedding, Emily always ends up in danger. And Daniel always runs to her without hesitation. Eventually, I realize I will never win against the reckless Gen Z assistant who constantly drags him into chaos. After the 99th cancellation, I decide to break up with him and disappear from Valemont. I move out overnight, erase every trace of myself, leaving nothing behind.

His eyes burn red like a wild animal on the edge of collapse. "Elara," he growls, "just give me one more chance."
