Asrama Dahlia

Aku sedang jual furnitur bekas di platform seken, tiba-tiba ada seorang perempuan kirim pesan untuk menawar harga, [Kak, harganya boleh agak kurang?] [Aku belum lulus kuliah, baru saja pindah dari asrama gara-gara berantem dengan teman sekamar. Pacarku yang mencarikan kontrakan untukku.] [Meskipun dia sangat kaya, bahkan bilang mau menikahiku setelah lulus, aku tetap nggak mau terlalu membebani dia.] [Boleh kurang empat puluh ribu, nggak? Nanti aku ambil sendiri ke sana!] Waktu masih kuliah dan pacaran dengan Steve, aku juga pernah rela mengayun sepeda umum selama dua jam hanya demi hemat sepuluh ribu. Meskipun sekarang aku hanya karyawan kantoran biasa, kondisiku lebih baik sedikit dibanding anak kuliah. Akhirnya, aku pun luluh dan menyetujuinya. Malam itu, dua orang muncul di depan gerbang komplek perumahanku. Si Perempuan dengan bangga berkata, “Aku hebat, ‘kan? Hanya keluar uang nggak sampai dua ratus ribu, tapi sudah dapat mesin cuci yang kondisinya masih 90% baru!” Si pria menyahut dengan nada memanjakan, “Iya… sayangku memang paling hebat.” “Tapi aku cari uang memang untuk membiayaimu, kamu nggak perlu sehemat itu.” “Suamimu ini direktur Grup Rosel, masa membiayai kamu saja nggak mampu? Sekali ini saja ya, lain kali jangan begini lagi.” Pria itu mendongak sambil tersenyum. Begitu mata kami bertemu, aku langsung mematung di tempat. Dia adalah Steve, pacarku yang pamitnya mau dinas keluar kota selama tiga bulan demi mendapat uang saku perjalanan dinas tiga kali lipat.

Cheated and humiliated by her husband, the heiress Dahlia’s life is turned upside down. In a burst of anger she vows to prove to the world she doesn’t need anyone. An unplanned kiss with Dane, a young upcoming businessman who has secrets of his own; opens the doors to new possibilities and makes them join hands. What will happen when the two realise they have far more in common then they ever thought? When lies are uncovered and secrets are spilt, will their budding love blossom? Or will this world of danger, desire and deceit tear them apart? ----- "Are you naturally clumsy, Ms El Nazari, or do you just need an excuse to fall into my arms?” I frowned pushing him away, trying not to pay attention to how firm and toned his body was. "You can carry on wishing Mr Altaire,” I said haughtily, stepping closer I patted his cheek. “I don't do younger men.” ----- I'll close my eyes, Mama. So you can kiss Uncle!” Aria's words made my eyes widen in shock. "We aren't kissing!" I said, quickly rushing off to find a bowl for the beans. I didn't miss Dane's smirk as Aria's eyes became shadowed. Her cheerful mood from moments earlier vanished as she looked down at her shoes. "But I want uncle to be my daddy.”

They say I killed my father. They say I ordered my maid, my dearest friend, to poison him. They say she confessed before taking her own life. Lies. The real murderer stands before me, weaving her web of deception and has the entire Royal court in her grasp. Queen Andessa, my wicked stepmother. My father’s killer. She has stripped me of my title, my crown, my very birthright, and has offered me up as a tribute to the Dragon King of Drakarith. A mercy punishment, she calls it. But I am not broken. She thinks she has won. That I will succumb to defeat and forget who I am. But she's wrong. I am Dahlia Rhadaya Balerion, the rightful Queen of Velmira. And I will return to reclaim what is mine and rip out Velmira's corruption by its roots. Starting with Andessa's rotten fertilized eggs. My callous step-siblings. Velmira is my home, my kingdom, and I will not let it rot under the rule of vipers. But reclaiming what is mine will not be easy, especially trying to achieve that from the dragon lands of Drakarith, under the watchful vigilance of Azraelyrs, a dragon king I have heard rumors about his cold-heartedness and rules with an iron fist. To survive, I must play the game of seduction and manipulation against my enemies. To win, I must be sharper, stronger, and more ruthless than I have never been before in my life. Let the games begin.

"Aidan, we can't be doing this." My breathing was heavy and my voice was shaky. "shhh" my stepbrother whispered, and his hands lowered until he was undoing the buttons of my pants. "You asked me if I hated you... Does this feel like hate, Dahlia?" His muscular body pressed me against the door of his bedroom, pinning me so that I couldn't escape. But I didn't want to run, heat crawled from my throat down to my pussy. My pants fell to the floor and cool air brushed against my thighs, my heartbeat quickened because I wasn't wearing any panties. His hand wrapped around my throat and he leaned close until our lips brushed, until I was breathing in his scent and his own breaths. The wetness between my thighs intensified as he rolled his fingers over my swollen clit. "Let me show you how crazy I am for you, let me show you how much I want you, Dahlia." *** Everyone knows Aidan. Aside from the fact that he is the top hockey star and first high-schooler to ever win a gold medal in the Olympics, he is breath takingly handsome. He's a six foot four, athletic dare devil who I had been crushing on since middle school but he hated my guts. Why? I don't know. Imagine my surprise when my mum decided to tie the knots to a Billionaire surgeon and on the day of the wedding, Aidan Smith is introduced to me as My stepbrother!!!

I waggled into my cottage and I opened the door. I found a stranger inside and I jerked out in fear. My amethyst eyes glowed in defence to protect my territory since it was marked. "Who the hell are you!" I yelled indignantly in frustration as emotions churned up in my chest. "I am Aryan Delcour, am sorry I stumbled upon your cottage. I was simply passing by" He retorted unfazed. His chest tightened afterwards and his jaw was clenched. A part of him knew that he had trespassed for sure, so he felt contritely at the moment. My eyes were fixated on his packs since he was just in shorts and I almost stuttered. I waggled closer to him fortuitously. "Is this the impact of the bond under moonlight?!" I pondered to myself in a perturbed manner. I knew that I had always resisted the urge to have a mate and bond with him under moonlight but not this time! Not when I was drunk and heartbroken!

“Be a good girl and cry for Daddy, would you?

There's an unspoken rule in my household—everyone has to engage in a drinking competition during the holidays. Whoever gets wasted first will have to pay off one year's worth of house and car mortgages for the other two siblings. In the first year, I collapsed after my first glass of alcohol. I had to pay the house mortgage for my oldest sister, Dahlia Zeller. In the second year, as soon as I picked up my glass, I fainted right away. Since then, I had to pay off Jasmine Zeller, my second sister's car loan. For the next 20 years, I've always been the loser. In the end, my wife, Jean McCarthy, is forced to jump off a building because of the huge debt I've racked up. The debtors keep dumping paint onto my residence, forcing me to deter away from it. Ransacked by guilt, I end up damaging my stomach from overdrinking when I attempt to train my alcohol tolerance. As a result, half of my liver has gotten removed. When I'm on the verge of death, I hear my parents snickering outside my ward. "Don't you think we've laced too many sleeping pills in his drink? He almost didn't wake up back then!" "It's fine. He's an idiot who merely thinks he has a low alcohol tolerance. Our family still relies on him for financial survival, you see. We can keep drugging him so that he'll keep getting wasted." When I open my eyes again, I've already gotten reborn in the timeframe when I'm sitting at the dining table in the 20th year.

Durante la noche de mi boda, fui llevada de urgencia al hospital en una ambulancia después de que un condón manipulado me dejara con un dolor insoportable. La cirugía duró más de veinticuatro horas, y la noticia se propagó como pólvora. Mi esposo, Alexander, hizo saber que cualquiera que lograra fotografiarme en mi estado postoperatorio sería recompensado con diez millones de dólares. De la noche a la mañana, pasé de ser la nueva esposa de un multimillonario a convertirme en el hazmerreír de todos los círculos de élite de New Paradise. Al día siguiente, Dahlia, el amor de la infancia de Alexander, apareció en mi puerta. Fue entonces cuando descubrí la verdad: ella había cubierto el condón con un adhesivo de uso industrial como parte de lo que ella llamó un «experimento social». No mostró ni una pizca de remordimiento. Su tono era frívolo y cruel: —Solo fue un experimento. O sea, ¿cómo se suponía que iba a saber que reaccionarías así? Además, ambas sabemos que nunca fuiste lo suficientemente buena para Alexander. Así que deja de fingir. Alexander se quedó a su lado, con la mirada fría y desdeñosa: —Si no fuera por el contrato matrimonial, nadie te habría tocado. Lo sabes, ¿verdad? Lo que él no sabía era que la mujer a la que estaba llamando zorra le había salvado la vida más veces de las que podía contar.
