Background Batu Hitam

I was head over heels for Jonas Hayes, the cold and aloof scholarship student who saw me as nothing more than a walking wallet. He took my credit card but refused to let me get close. "Get lost. The sight of you and your filthy money makes me sick." Using my wealth, he showered Clara Dove, the stunning campus bella from a humble background, with luxury gifts and even threw her a lavish birthday party at the city’s most exclusive hotel. Everyone envied him, believing he was a self-made billionaire. But I didn’t care. I stayed hopelessly in love. After graduation, I poured my entire inheritance into building a life with him, convinced I could win his heart. During our honeymoon, he watched as I drowned, his voice ice-cold as he said, "Every time I think of how you used your money to control me, I wish you’d die sooner." When I woke up again, I was back in my college classroom—the day Jonas asked me to top up his card. This time, I wasn’t the desperate fool he remembered. I slapped him across the face with the card and sneered, "Even beggars know how to kneel and ask. What are you, a weed?"

I, Alpha Lake Rush of the Rush Pack, hereby reject you, JoJo Wyatt, as my mate. However, you will need to keep working to pay off your debt." "Wait, what?" At the tender age of eleven, JoJo Wyatt had been forced to grow up faster than most. Coming from a challenging family background with a distant father and a fragile mother, JoJo realized early on that she had to take responsibility for herself and her younger sister. Her focus was solely on survival—love and romance held no appeal for her, especially after a devastating experience. She swore off relationships with men, but that changed when she began working for him in an unconventional role, trying to pay off roughly 7.8 million dollars for her mother’s hospital treatments. Alpha Lake Rush, 30, was known as the most formidable Alpha in the country. Though burdened by his own struggles, he had learned to be strong and decisive. His past experiences had led him to reject two of his mates. But when fate brings him JoJo, who is working to pay off her debt, everything changes. What happens when his destined mate turns out to be the one person he never expected—his third chance mate?

As the only daughter of a casino magnate, I have grown up surrounded by danger and betrayal. To keep me safe, my father has raised nine bodyguards from a young age. After I come of age, he asks me to choose one of them as my fiance. Everyone expects me to pick Harry Hunt, the man I have secretly loved for years. But I do not—not after what happened in my previous life. On the day of our engagement, I was kidnapped, and my hands were pierced with poison-tipped spikes. Tortured and desperate, I called Harry for help. His response still haunts me today. "Victoria, stop with these games. Your location shows you're still in the hotel suite. Trying to pull these pity stunts just to keep me to yourself? Pathetic." With another woman laughing in the background, I closed my eyes and gave up. As the iron cage sank beneath the waves and the sea filled my lungs, my life ended. Then, I open my eyes and find myself back on the day my father asked me to make a choice. This time, Harry's name is the first I cross off the list. But why is he crying and begging me to marry him at my engagement banquet with Jeffrey Reed?

I was on a business trip out of town when I got a text from my neighbor. [Can you and your husband keep it down? Also, one of your undies fell onto my balcony.] Shocked, I opened the photo she had sent. The underwear wasn't even my style, but it matched the one I'd seen in my husband's online shopping cart. He'd told me it was a gift for me, but I remember noticing the size—it was one size larger than mine. When confronted with the neighbor's message, my husband swore that the house must've been broken into and claimed the intruder left the item behind. But something about his story didn't sit right, so I decided to dig further. That was when I stumbled upon his social media. His latest post was just three words. [I bought this.] It was paired with a photo of a lingerie gift set. Beneath it, there was a comment. [I'm wearing it.] Attached was a picture of a woman's legs—and the unmistakable background of my living room. The evidence was undeniable. I packed up the underwear and brought it straight to the police. "My husband says our house was broken into. This was left behind by the intruder, and it might have DNA on it."

Setelah kematian kakakku, aku menandatangani pernikahan kontrak lima tahun dengan suaminya, Alexander Valendra yang adalah seorang mafia. Aku menjadi ibu tiri bagi keponakanku yang berusia lima tahun, Adriel Valendra. Di hari ulang tahunku, aku memakai kalung berlian milik kakakku yang sudah meninggal tanpa tahu apa maknanya. Saat acara makan malam keluarga, Adriel berjalan mendekat sambil membawa segelas anggur merah dan menyiramkannya ke wajahku. Anggur merah itu menetes di pipiku, aromanya yang tajam menusuk mataku dan mengotori gaunku yang putih. Dia menatapku, sorot matanya sedingin dan sekejam ayahnya. "Jangan pikir kamu bisa menggantikan ibuku hanya karena kamu sudah jadi bagian dari Keluarga Valendra," katanya sambil menyeringai. "Kamulah penyebab kematiannya." "Aku berharap kamulah yang mati. Jadi aku bisa menghancurkan batu nisanmu, dan bukan merayakan ulang tahun konyol ini." "Aku bersumpah, begitu aku dewasa nanti, hal pertama yang kulakukan adalah menenggelamkan kamu ke Sungai Mandira!" Kenangan itu menusuk setajam anggur tadi, dan yang bisa kurasakan hanyalah putus asa. Aku menatap anak yang sudah kuasuh selama lima tahun seperti anakku sendiri, dan rasa perih menusuk di dadaku. Aku dulu berpikir aku bisa sepenuhnya menyerahkan diriku untuk Keluarga Valendra, dan memenangkan hatinya dengan kasih sayang. Namun sekarang, aku hanya lelah dengan semuanya. Keluarga ini tak punya cinta, dan anak itu memandangku seperti musuh yang harus dihancurkan. Aku berhenti menipu diri sendiri. Sudah waktunya untuk melepaskan semuanya. Namun setelah aku pergi, Alexander dan Adriel kembali padaku, merayap seperti pecundang yang ketakutan, dan memohon ampun padaku.

Menjelang upacara pernikahan bisnis kami, Oliver, tunanganku, berdiri di atas dek kapal kargo di dermaga baru dan mengumumkan bahwa cinta pertamanya, yaitu Evelyn yang merupakan adik tiriku, yang menderita penyakit jantung, adalah istri sahnya yang sesungguhnya. Di bawah dinginnya lampu sorot, Oliver memeluk Evelyn sambil tersenyum lembut. "Menurut aturan mafia, cuma wanita yang disaksikan oleh para tetua inti yang dianggap sebagai istri pemimpin klan. Yang lain, hanyalah gundik belaka." Diiringi restu dari para tetua klan, mereka saling bertukar kalung permata hitam, mengucap sumpah dan mengikat janji setia. Aku menyaksikannya tanpa suara, lalu membuat janji untuk melakukan operasi aborsi. Dari usia 16 tahun hingga 28 tahun, aku mencintai Oliver dengan sepenuh hati selama 12 tahun. Akan tetapi, di hati Oliver hanya ada Evelyn. Jika memang begitu kenyataannya, aku memilih untuk melepaskannya. Aku berangkat menuju markas rahasia di Negara Aresha Selatan dan hanya meninggalkan sepucuk surat pembatalan pertunangan, serta hadiah perpisahan untuk Oliver. Akan tetapi, Oliver yang selama ini selalu acuh tak acuh kepadaku, justru menjadi hancur hingga tidak lagi memedulikan urusan klan ….
