Apartemen West Vista

Anya, seorang peramal tarot berusia 22 tahun, menjalani hari-harinya dengan penuh kejutan dari klien-kliennya, baik yang datang langsung maupun konsultasi online. Kehidupannya berubah ketika ia mengikuti event Imlek dan membuka booth tarot. Di sana, ia bertemu dengan El, seorang pria asal Singapura berusia 34 tahun. Setelah sesi konsultasi, El mencium tangannya dengan lembut dan berjanji akan kembali setelah urusannya selesai di Singapura. Momen itu begitu menggetarkan hati Anya, bahkan mendapatkan vision aneh. Setelah event berakhir, nomor asing mengiriminya WhatsApp—ternyata El, yang menemukan nomor Anya dari kartu nama di booth. Sementara itu, pekerjaannya sebagai peramal tarot semakin menarik ketika ia harus membaca kartu untuk kliennya. Namun, sebuah fakta mengejutkan muncul. Saat iseng mencari nama lengkap El di Google, Anya menemukan bahwa El pernah terlibat kasus hukum—dituduh menyiksa ART yang diduga meracuni minumannya. Hal ini membuatnya ragu, apakah perasaannya pada El hanya sebatas fantasi atau benar-benar sesuatu yang bisa ia harapkan. Di sisi lain, Reza, karyawan kafe yang sering menggodanya, semakin agresif mendekati Anya. Dia bahkan membayar untuk diramal secara profesional, menunjukkan keseriusannya. Godaan dari Reza semakin menjadi. Anya mulai bimbang. Apakah harus menunggu El, pria misterius dengan masa lalu yang meragukan? Ataukah ia harus memberi kesempatan pada Reza, pria yang nyata di hadapannya? Ketika seorang pria datang untuk konsultasi bisnis restoran keluarga dan fotografi, Anya malah ditawari membuka booth tarot di restoran ibunya. Selain tawaran ini, yang juga mengejutkan, Reza bukan sekadar barista biasa, melainkan anak pemilik restoran dan pewaris banyak perusahaan besar. Meskipun Anya mulai membuka diri, ia tetap dibuat terkejut ketika mengetahui bahwa Reza ternyata tinggal di apartemen yang sama dengannya—hanya beda dua lantai! Kini, dengan semakin banyaknya keterikatan antara dirinya dan Reza, serta misteri yang masih menggantung soal El, apakah Anya siap menghadapi babak baru dalam kehidupannya? Setiap hari ada kisah seru dan terkadang menggairahkan dengan banyak klien yang berkonsultasi.

In a world where strength dictates survival, Raenerys was born weak—an insult to her bloodline, a disgrace to her ruthless pack. Overshadowed by her sister, Sera, the Southern Alpha’s fierce and untouchable heir, Raenerys learned early that she would never be more than an afterthought. A burden. A fragile flower destined to wither in the shadow of wolves. But even a weak wolf can dream. When she is forced into an arranged marriage with Nevil, the cold and powerful Alpha of the North—the only man she has ever secretly loved—Raenerys dares to hope. That hope is shattered. Betrayed in the most unforgivable way, she watches her sister take what was meant to be hers. Humiliated, discarded, and heartbroken beyond repair, Raenerys does what no one expects. She runs. And this time, she does not look back. Fleeing into the brutal, lawless West, she sheds her name, her past, and the weakness that once defined her. The girl they called fragile dies in the wild. The monster that rises in her place does not beg, does not break—she burns. With blood on her hands and vengeance in her heart, Raenerys carves a path of destruction, crushing those who once mocked her, razing enemy packs to the ground, and building her own empire from the ashes. They call her the Vicious Conqueror. But power comes at a price. As the past claws its way back, old enemies and former lovers return—some to kill her, others to claim what they once threw away. Now, the question is no longer whether she is strong enough to survive. It is whether she will become the very beast they once feared. A queen of vengeance. A ruler of ruin. A storm of wrath that will either swallow the world… or save it.

“Reject me,” Naya sternly said with eyes full of hate. Kael smiled. “Why would I do that? I told you, didn’t I? You’re mine now. I don’t care about your mission. I’ll fill you up with my seed you will forget that damn mission of yours.” His fingers traced her lips. “Beg all you want but I will not reject you or let you go. You're my possession, Naya, from here on and until your last breath.” *** In a world ruled by powerful rivaling packs, Naya, a skilled fighter and beta’s daughter of the Light Shadow Pack, is sent on a dangerous mission to assassinate an enemy pack’s royal heir. But when she is captured by Kael, an alpha prince of the West Wood Pack notorious for his unhinged behavior and fierce power, Naya’s plans are thrown into disarray. Forced to submit to Kael and become his slave, Naya struggles to maintain her pride and wonders when she will ever escape from his grasp. As they all say, Kael is the most deranged alpha someone will ever meet in their life. To make things worse, Naya finds out Kael is her mate. Regardless, Naya has her own mission to fulfill so she does everything to escape. But with enemies emerging from the shadows and secrets revealing one by one, Naya is left to wonder who to believe and trust. Can Naya escape Kael’s grasp and fulfill her mission? Who is the real enemy and who is on her side? Will Kael’s power block her from reaching the truth or is he the key to everything she seeks?

The Moretti Family's Thanksgiving party was in full swing downstairs—crystal clinks, fake laughs, classic mafia gloss. Meanwhile, I was curled up in a servant's room on the third floor. Jackson Moretti's wife. Legally, anyway. My hands were ice. I gripped the ultrasound report like it could anchor me. Three heartbeats. Strong, steady. It was supposed to be a surprise—his big Thanksgiving gift. To the outside world, Jackson was a polished Stanford grad, running a top-tier consulting firm in San Francisco. But behind the scenes? He ran the Moretti empire—cold, calculated, pulling strings in the West Coast's darkest corners. Three years of marriage and we barely spoke, but I still clung to the hope that maybe... maybe there was something real left. Then I heard him downstairs. "You really not letting your wife come down?" "Isabella?" He laughed. "She'd kill the vibe." Another voice chimed in. "Lina's back, right? Wild you married her twin. Which one do you actually like?" Jackson didn't miss a beat. "Isabella's just a stand-in. Quiet. Predictable. I could tell her to drop dead and she'd say 'okay.'" "So when are you ditching her?" "Dunno. She thinks she matters. I'm just playing her." I slapped a hand over my mouth to muffle the sob. A minute later, I was heading downstairs, numb. I brushed my fingers over my belly. "Sorry, babies," I whispered. Triplets. His. He thought I was blind. Weak. Stuck. What he didn't know? A quiet woman, once she snaps—she can burn it all down.

During my wedding, hundreds of photos of me being sullied flutter down from the top of the church, landing before the guests below. My fiancé instantly calls off our engagement and turns to kiss my sister. Devastation washes over me. Just then, my childhood friend Derek Church, the Capo of the Church family, the East Coast's most powerful mafia family, pulls me into his arms. He kicks the church's door open and presses a check worth a million dollars into my father's hands. He pulls me to the priest and has him announce that we are husband and wife. I'm so touched that I agree to marry him. From then on, I become the Capo's wife. Two years later, Derek and I finally conceive through IVF. I want to share the exciting news with him when I overhear his conversation with his subordinate. "Lilyanne is afraid of pain and becoming ugly, so we can use Nicole to give birth to her child. Once she produces an heir for the Morse family, her position will be solidified. Then, the Morse family will become the Church family's MadeMan." "As expected of you, boss. You knew the Morse family is full of politicians who would never accept a sullied woman into the family. The only way for Lilyanne to marry into the family was by having Nicole sullied." My blood runs cold when I hear this, and the pregnancy report in my hand feels unbelievably heavy. The man I thought was my salvation was actually the devil who pulled me into the abyss. I dry my tears and call the Capo of the West Coast's mafia family, Derek's nemesis. "I have a way to help you become the mafia Capo dei capi. Do you want to work with me?"
